Watanabe Shinichi's strict voice and solemn expression made everyone's eyes widen.
“Ninjas need to use hand seals to transform the chakra they refine into techniques and release them…”
“This casting process requires a calm and peaceful mind to ensure the accuracy of the hand seals…”
“It also requires skillful technique to ensure that hand seals are not made incorrectly…”
“You must, you must, you must keep it in mind…”
He repeated “must” three times loudly, just to emphasize the importance of hand seals.
Someone raised their hand and asked: “Shinichi-sensei, what happens if you make a mistake?”
Watanabe Shinichi's eyes glanced sideways, sweeping towards the questioner.
After confirming that he was not being deliberately provocative but genuinely confused, he withdrew his stern gaze.
“As I said, any negligence in any of these aspects will result in the failure of the technique, a reduction in its power, or a waste of chakra…”
“Like this…”
Watanabe Shinichi thought for a moment and decided to use facts to enhance persuasion.
With a shout in his heart, he used the Body Flicker Technique.
“Bang!”
A cloud of white smoke exploded beside the lectern.
After the smoke cleared, another Watanabe Shinichi appeared.
This caused a flurry of exclamations from the little sprouts who had never seen ninjutsu before.
“This is the Body Flicker Technique used correctly…”
“But if you make a mistake in your hand seals or fail to control your chakra, it will end up like this…”
“Bang, bang, bang…”
Several clouds of white smoke exploded around him.
But this time, the “Watanabe Shinichi” that appeared had twisted features, a crooked mouth and slanted eyes; one was fat on top and skinny on the bottom; another was slumped on the ground like a puddle of mud…
Such comical appearances caused the little sprouts to burst into laughter.
“Hahaha…”
“Haha…ha…”
“Ha~~burp~!”
But looking at Watanabe Shinichi's gloomy and watery face, the laughter became less and less, and smaller and smaller, until the chubby boy who stopped laughing last even burped.
He immediately received Watanabe Shinichi's “death stare”, which frightened the chubby boy so much that he quickly covered his mouth.
“Do you find this funny?”
Faced with the gloomy Shinichi-sensei, everyone lowered their heads and kept silent.
“Now,”
“Everyone, practice the twelve hand seals one hundred times!”
…………
By the second grade, Shichiya had grown a year older, and his chakra had also increased considerably. The duration of his shadow clones had also increased.
Moreover, with the continuous cultivation of the “Zhou Tian Breathing Technique”, both his physique and his five senses had improved significantly.
Although the blind spot behind his head when activating the Byakugan meant that his vision was not perfect, Shichiya did not complain about fate.
This 359-degree field of vision already far exceeded the imagination of normal people in his previous life.
Moreover, influenced by the martial arts theories of his previous life, Shichiya was not merely reliant on his sight, he also consciously trained his other senses.
In fact, Shichiya looked forward to the miraculous state of “the cicada knows the autumn wind is about to rise before it moves” and “unseen, unheard, but aware and able to avoid danger”, as recorded in ancient texts in his previous life.
“I wonder how I can achieve this state?”
Without any specific training methods, Shichiya could only continue to work hard on his physical body and mind.
But he had recently hit a bottleneck.
This did not refer to his Gentle Fist or Shunpo, as there was still a lot of room for improvement in those two areas.
It was his “Zhou Tian Breathing Technique”. Since its creation, with his knowledge base, it had only been optimized once.
Stretching, removing bone blockages, moving vital energy, nourishing internal organs, relaxing the mind, and falling asleep quickly…
It seems to have many benefits.
But it is only that.
Stretching made him taller than other children his age, and nourishing his internal organs simply strengthened some organ functions.
Going about it this way, even if he became an adult, he would only be stronger than most people, and he would never achieve the level of unleashing his physical potential that he had imagined!
At present, the most useful thing was to relax his mind and alleviate the fatigue from shadow clone stacking.
“I need more knowledge of secret techniques, especially about Yin and Yang Release…”
“Otherwise, with my current knowledge reserves, it would take too much energy to use the system to deduce…!”
Shichiya had tried to deduce a secret technique that could increase mental strength, but the progress bar showed that he would need to continuously provide chakra for over three years.
This made him immediately abandon that idea.
Continuously providing chakra for three years, would he still need to train?!
“Yang Release secret techniques, which control the Yang power derived from the body’s life energy, giving life to form.”
“Medical ninjutsu is the top choice, the Akimichi clan’s Expansion Technique is also good, I wonder if Orochimaru has any techniques for bodily revitalization…”
Within Konoha, these are the few that Shichiya could think of.
But for Shichiya now, each one was difficult.
Orochimaru is not related to him and has an unpredictable personality; the Akimichi clan’s secret technique is their livelihood; and the most promising medical ninjutsu…
Even the founder, Tsunade, probably hasn't created many yet!
War can truly greatly accelerate technological innovation and iteration.
The systematic development of medical ninjutsu and its large-scale emergence occurred after the Second Great Ninja War.
Because Tsunade and the Sand Village's Chiyo were on opposing sides, one using poison and the other antidote, the two met like fated rivals, engaging in a fierce battle.
It was then that Tsunade's innovative and research talent was unleashed, creating a series of medical ninjutsu and establishing her reputation as a “medical saint”.
But at this point in time, the Second Great Ninja War has not yet broken out, and Tsunade's focus is probably still on her brute strength techniques…
“Huh?! Wait.”
“Tsunade was able to create a series of medical ninjutsu, it shouldn't have been entirely from scratch…”
“The Senju clan must have records about this…”
Shichiya's slightly excited heart calmed down.
“That is the foundation of the Senju clan, why would they show it to me…”
“As for the possibility of becoming an apprentice…?”
