Chapter 27 Swordsmanship Entries
The leaves on the ground were finally rolled up and floated in mid-air.
At that very moment, an electric current flashed through Kiyoshi's right arm, and his cells became much more active.
He suddenly drew his small katana and swung it at the leaves.
A crack gradually appeared on the leaf in mid-air, then it split in two and fell to the ground.
Kiyoshi slowly shifted from drawing his sword to sheathing it, the blade faintly reflecting a cold, metallic glint.
"As expected, it's based on speed."
Kiyoshi secretly said.
His eyesight can keep up with the speed of the leaves and capture their movement.
The downside is that the body's reaction speed cannot keep up, and the accuracy is insufficient.
He hadn't practiced swordsmanship long enough to hit a leaf in an instant.
However, the extremely high speed just makes up for the lack of precision.
If one cut isn't enough, then two cuts will do.
If two cuts aren't enough, then three.
Kiyoshi's first strike missed, but he quickly adjusted and swung his second blade, splitting the leaf in two.
It was so fast that ninjas with poor perception could only see Kiyoshi draw his sword, make a blurry swinging motion, and then the leaves split open.
"You have learned a new term: [Apprentice Swordsman Ninja (White)]"
A semi-transparent panel appeared before Kiyoshi's eyes.
[Entry: Apprentice Swordsman Ninja (White)]
[Requirement met: Use a sword technique.]
Progress: (Completed)
[Effect: Your swordsmanship training speed increases by 10% from its original speed.]
[Note: Further advanced levels are available.]
Before he could buy a second-hand kodachi, Kiyoshi used a kitchen knife to carve a tree branch into the outline of a "sword" to practice the swordsmanship of the Kumogakure-ryu school.
After five days of practice, which is today, Kiyoshi managed to use "Cloud Hidden Style Sword Technique: Flying Bird" and obtained a new entry.
Kiyoshi's swordsmanship training is 10% higher than that of ordinary people.
"This is about the level of a regular genin."
Kiyoshi put down the kodachi and went inside to get a cup of water.
The skill gap between genin is greater than that between a human and a dog.
Even someone as strong as Maruboshi Kosuke, a perennial genin.
His eagerness for quick success and rash orders during the mission led to the deaths of two of his comrades.
So he swore an oath to the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, to always remain a genin, but his true strength was that of an elite even among jonin.
He displayed impressive strength in the original work.
The weaker genin were the children of ordinary people.
The Three Body Technique, rarely used by other ninjas with ninja clan lineages, is already the strongest ninjutsu for them.
With the ability to master the Three Body Techniques and a little common sense, one can be forced into becoming a genin.
"We still need to graduate as soon as possible."
Kiyoshi put down his water glass.
The "Strong Physique" attribute should be available this week, and then it can be directly combined into the "Lightning Release Genin" attribute.
Continuing to stay at the ninja academy is a waste of time; it's best to graduate early.
For other ninjas, graduating early might mean becoming expendable resources prematurely.
But the Qing Dynasty was different.
He can access more things and has more opportunities to trigger the term panel and complete the conditions of the term panel, thereby rapidly growing stronger.
……
Ninja Academy.
In addition to physical training, ninjas also had to learn shuriken throwing techniques.
Most ninjas carry a shuriken with them at all times.
There are many ninjutsu related to shuriken, such as "Shadow Clone Technique of Shuriken" and "Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Claw Red".
"Listen carefully, the shuriken is a ninja's last line of defense. When a ninja's chakra is insufficient to unleash ninjutsu, if their shuriken throwing technique is good enough, they may be able to turn the tide..."
The Chunin teacher in charge of teaching shuriken throwing, Fujimoto Kyohei, was speaking eloquently up there, occasionally taking out several different shuriken for the students to identify.
There are Fuma shuriken, which are much larger than regular shuriken, and there are also subdivisions such as right-angled shuriken and curved-angled shuriken.
Kiyoshi quietly watched as Fujimoto Kyohei displayed the various shuriken.
When it comes to shuriken throwing techniques, the Uchiha clan is among the best.
"Kiyoshi, how's your shuriken throwing technique?"
Kurenai parted her lips slightly and asked.
Kiyoshi was a transfer student.
I taught shuriken last semester, so it's scheduled for much later this semester.
Kiyoshi, who is both from the Land of Lightning and from the Uchiha clan.
Kurenai was very curious about how good her throwing skills were.
"I don't know, I haven't practiced much."
Kiyoshi shook his head.
Human energy is limited; one can only make the best choice in the shortest amount of time.
First, you need to strengthen your body to have more chakra, and then learn more ninjutsu.
While the two were talking, Sarutobi Asuma watched Kiyoshi and Yuhi Kurenai from behind.
No, who is the real childhood sweetheart?
Sarutobi Asuma is about to lose his composure.
He wanted to apologize to Hong for what had happened before, but couldn't think of a good angle.
"Asuma, are you in a bad mood?"
Inuzuka Shi walked over and asked.
"no."
How could I possibly bring myself to say anything when I see my childhood sweetheart chatting endlessly with another man?
Sarutobi Asuma waved his hand as if nothing was wrong.
As the son of the Hokage, he has been the subject of countless expectant gazes since childhood.
Therefore, Sarutobi Asuma didn't want others to see his inadequacies.
"Alright, everyone, practice on your own for now."
Fujimoto Kyohei waved his hand and distributed the shuriken that the school had lent to the students.
There are twenty puppets in the practice area for students to practice with.
Where's Kakashi?
Obito asked.
He hasn't run into Kakashi all day.
"The teacher said Kakashi was absent this morning. Obito, were you even paying attention in class?"
After receiving the shuriken, Nohara Rin returned to her practice area.
The shuriken is blunt, and it's clear that it's been used for many years.
"Hehe, Lin, I forgot."
Obito grinned foolishly.
"But Kiyoshi is really popular; he got to know a lot of people in no time."
"Nohara Rin said softly, her voice melodious," she said.
Previously, Qing Si had been cultivating with these people.
Now, without anyone noticing, Kiyoshi seems to have gotten along quite well with Kurenai, one of the class's top students.
"Hmph, it's just that the guy is a foreigner, so everyone's curious."
Obito snorted.
Once everyone's initial excitement wears off, Uchiha Kiyoshi will just go back to doing what he always did.
He looked in Kiyoshi's direction and saw that Kiyoshi, holding a shuriken, was coming towards Nohara Rin, with Yuhi Kurenai following behind him.
"Has Kakashi not come all day?"
Qing Si Dandao.
Because he expected to get the "Strong Physique" entry today, and since today was full of training classes, he had been focused on training and hadn't noticed when Kakashi disappeared.
"Hmm, Kakashi might be busy."
Rindo Nohara.
"Kakashi must be practicing secretly at home."
Obito suddenly spoke, expressing his doubt.
He didn't believe Kakashi was really that talented; he must have been secretly practicing behind the scenes to achieve such good grades.
"Obito, Kakashi isn't that kind of person."
Hearing Obito say this, Rin Nohara frowned slightly.
Kiyoshi did not pay attention to their subsequent conversation.
At that moment, he had only one thing on his mind.
It's highly likely... Konoha's White Fang has returned.
They came back defeated!
