“None of those!”
The old man shook his head, denying Chen Yue's answer. He then explained to him: "For a ninja, the level of control over chakra is indeed one of the standards for measuring a ninja's strength. It is a very important ability for a ninja."
“But, I told you yesterday, child, each ninja's chakra talent is different. The level of chakra talent will affect a ninja's control of chakra. This is not something that can be easily changed by training. Therefore, it cannot be called fundamental.”
“The Sharingan is the same. The Sharingan is a Kekkei Genkai unique to our Uchiha clan, and it is a power that only a small number of family members can awaken.”
“Such abilities are not universal at all, so they still do not meet the requirements of ‘most basic.’”
Speaking of the Sharingan, the old man's expression suddenly changed, his attitude became serious, and his tone was different.
“Child, the Sharingan is a very important ability for our Uchiha clan. This is undeniable.”
Uchiha Huo He looked at Chen Yue solemnly and said to him: "But, child, you must remember that the true power of the Sharingan lies in our ability to unleash even greater power from ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu. The basic prerequisite is that we have already mastered ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu."
“And if you only have the Sharingan but no corresponding ninjutsu, genjutsu, or taijutsu ability, it is just endless water, a rootless tree.”
It is undoubtedly a rare occurrence to have the innate talent of a three-tomoe Sharingan. But for such talent to be fully realized, it needs to be guided step by step with caution.
Talent is important, but it still requires effort, even more effort than those without talent.
The Sharingan is important, but you cannot ignore other things because of it. This is what Uchiha Huo He wanted to tell the little boy, during this special training.
“Yes, I remember, great-grandfather!”
Seeing his great-grandfather's serious attitude, Chen Yue responded with utmost seriousness.
As a time-traveler with a mature mind, he naturally understood the old man's point about not relying on the Sharingan.
In fact, even if it were the three-tomoe Sharingan, or even the Mangekyo Sharingan, or even the future destined to evolve into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, he wouldn't overly rely on it.
He would indeed treat the Mangekyo Sharingan as his most important trump card, but he would absolutely never bet everything on it.
You never know, even Uchiha Madara who had the Rinnegan, and Kaguya Otsutsuki, two super BOSSes, were defeated. How could he completely rely on the Mangekyo Sharingan?
However, after listening to his great-grandfather's words, Chen Yue realized another thing: why did the training content of this special training not mention the Sharingan at all?
Uchiha Chen Yue originally thought that after he displayed his three-tomoe Sharingan, his two elders would immediately guide him on how to use the Sharingan properly and teach him some secrets related to the Sharingan.
However, in the end, the training content his two elders told him did not include anything related to the Sharingan. Instead, it was all about the basics of taijutsu, ninjutsu, and genjutsu. In particular, the content related to taijutsu accounted for a large portion.
“Wait…”
Suddenly, Chen Yue thought about this, then recalled his great-grandfather’s question, and the answer seemed to be revealed.
“Is it taijutsu?”
Realizing the correct answer, Chen Yue immediately said to Uchiha Huo He: "Great-grandfather, for a ninja, the most basic and important ability is taijutsu?”
“Yes, it is taijutsu.”
Seeing the little boy finally realize the key to the question, the old man showed a relieved smile.
“But why is it taijutsu?”
Chen Yue asked Uchiha Huo He in confusion.
Although he deduced the answer from the training content, he didn't understand why taijutsu was the most basic and also the most important ability for a ninja?
In his impression, in the Naruto world, the truly powerful ones should be the colorful and diverse ninjutsu, the mysterious genjutsu, and the most powerful Kekkei Genkai with various powerful abilities.
And taijutsu?
It is indeed quite basic, but ‘most important’, how can it be said?
Although there is the impressive Eight Inner Gates, what else is there besides that?
Moreover, the Eight Inner Gates, a forbidden jutsu, should also be like Kekkei Genkai. It doesn’t have universality and does not meet the requirements of ‘most basic’, right?
“The reason is simple, child.”
Uchiha Huo He stood with his hands behind his back in front of the little boy and slowly explained: "Three reasons, the requirements of talent, the difficulty of obtaining it, and most importantly: a ninja's combat style centered on taijutsu.”
