Chapter 8 Recruitment
With the ringing of the bell, the morning theory class ended.
The students left the classroom playfully one by one.
Shinji refused Shiro's invitation, took his lunch box alone, and went into a deserted grove in the Ninja School.
After learning yesterday's lesson, he decided not to use ninjutsu easily in the ninja school, but to practice the breathing method 'Water Breathing' first.
Because the practice of breathing method is very hidden.
Unless Byakugan is monitoring him all the time, he won't be able to find it at all.
So while eating his lunch, he looked up the memory fragments of the swordsmen who practiced 'Water Breathing' in his mind.
At this moment, a person suddenly walked into the forest.
"Who?"
Shinji looked over.
The man stood in the shadow of the trees: "Good vigilance."
After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Shinji's expression did not change, but he was secretly shocked in his heart.
Because the other person was none other than Shimura Danzo, who single-handedly promoted the genocide of the Uchiha clan!
Danzo stared at Shinji, not hiding the aggression in his eyes: "Your talent is good, but talent alone cannot avenge you!" "Who are you?"
Shinji
showed appropriate hostility.
Danzo took a step forward and exposed his sinister face in the sun: "I am the advisor elder of the village. Becoming my subordinate is your only chance to get revenge!" "Ha, he wants to use this method to get revenge on Itachi
. You want to trick me into joining the Roots?"
Shinji felt ridiculous in his heart.
This Danzo is really shameless. He was clearly the one who pushed for the annihilation of the Uchiha clan, but now he has the nerve to coax the victims into working for him.
First use Itachi to destroy the Uchiha clan, and then use himself, the remnant of the Uchiha, to deal with Itachi.
What a beautiful thought!
Suppressing his disgust for Danzo, Shinji said: "I don't need help from others, I will kill that person myself!" "
Anyone who refuses me will not end well."
Danzo snorted disdainfully. He made a sound, then turned and left.
Looking at Danzo leaving with an expressionless face, Shinji thought to himself: "It's really disgusting to be targeted by such a guy! But he shouldn't dare to do anything to me openly now." Shinji knew that Danzo
and The relationship between the three generations is very delicate.
From a certain perspective, Danzo is a link in the power structure of the third generation and an important help for the third generation to control Konoha Village.
So let alone Shinji, even Uchiha with the strength of Shisui and Itachi, and even Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo with both strength and status, could not defeat Danzo in the village.
Withdrawing his gaze, Shinji continued to eat his lunch.
Danzo may not be able to do anything to him on the surface, but secretly he can't, so he still has to improve his strength as soon as possible.
After eating his lunch, he calmed down his thoughts and began to try practicing 'Water Breathing'.
Breathwork is a way to develop the body's potential.
'Water Breathing' is one of the five basic breathing methods. Although it is not as powerful as 'Sun Breathing' and 'Moon Breathing', it can also significantly improve the body.
In Demon Slayer, mortal swordsmen basically rely on these basic breathing techniques to fight ghosts that can recover infinitely.
And because there are memory fragments of more than a dozen swordsmen who practiced 'Water Breathing', Shinji has a natural affinity for 'Water Breathing'.
After simply trying several breathing rhythms based on the memory fragments, he gradually got the feeling.
Breathing.
Feeling the rhythm of the air coming out of his mouth, he faintly discovered that his heart and lungs seemed to be echoing a certain rhythm.
But this is different from everyday breathing.
In just a moment, he felt that his lungs began to feel stuffy, his heartbeat and breathing quickened, and the rhythm was instantly destroyed.
Stopping the breathing technique, Shinji was secretly happy.
According to the memories of those swordsmen, it usually takes a month of hard training before they can barely sense the rhythm and rhythm of the breathing method.
Even Qiantu, the best among them, took a few days to feel the rhythm.
And he got into the rhythm with just one try!
Of course.
This is mainly because he has obtained the training experience of more than a dozen swordsmen, just like the entry level of 'Water Breathing', which has been simulated in his heart for more than ten times.
But mastering the rhythm is only the first step.
The key to breathing techniques is still the in-depth development of body functions. Techniques can only reduce the difficulty of getting started, but they cannot eliminate the process of practice.
If the heart and lungs cannot keep up with the rhythm of the breathing method, like just now, you will feel unbearable chest tightness in just a moment, and you will be unable to continue.
"It seems that to master the basic level of total concentration, you need to practice over time and let the various organs of the body keep up with the rhythm of the breathing method!"
Shinji has a goal.
Time flies, and two weeks have passed in a blink of an eye.
During this period, the strange invasion did not happen again, which made Shinji slightly relieved, but he did not dare to take it lightly and still tried his best to improve his strength.
After rejecting Danzo's solicitation last time, he weighed it up and finally accepted Shiro's training.
Because of things like physical skills, it’s really impossible without a good sparring partner!
Bai is both his classmate and neighbor, so him sparring with Bai will not arouse anyone's suspicion.
Of course, the premise is that there can't be another ostentatious incident like the one that almost burned down the ninja school last time!
With Bai's help, his shortcomings in physical skills improved rapidly. In just two weeks of hard training, he reached the average level of his peers.
At least no one will notice the flaw.
The considerate Bai not only did not explore too much why his physical skills were so poor, but also thoughtfully formulated various plans for him to practice physical skills.
When it comes to improving physical skills, the foundation is most important.
The stronger the foundation, the higher the upper limit, so Shinji is very modest in this regard and works very hard to consolidate his weak foundation.
the other side.
After more than twenty days of coma, Sasuke finally woke up in the hospital.
At first, he didn't want to believe the fact that the Uchiha tribe had been exterminated, so he stumbled into the deserted Uchiha tribe alone.
Then in the drizzle, he walked out in despair.
"Why."
He walked like a puppet, his expression dull and aimless.
His world collapsed in one night.
In just one night, he went from the son of the patriarch of Konoha's most powerful family to the helpless orphan he is today.
What was even more difficult for him to accept was that the culprit of all this was actually his closest brother.
He couldn't accept this fact.
As a result, he, who was lively and cheerful before the night of the genocide, suddenly turned into the gloomy, lonely, and hopeless person he is now.
Shinji is also secretly paying attention to Sasuke.
However, when he discovered that the village did not arrange Sasuke in his own apartment building, but let Sasuke live in an apartment not far from the ANBU building, his attention to Sasuke became even more hidden.
It's obvious.
Sasuke is still under surveillance in the village.
This is actually understandable.
Before Uchiha Itachi defected, he warned the Third Generation and Danzo in person that if anything happened to Sasuke in the village, he would spread Konoha's top-secret information to other ninja villages.
No one in the village dared to take it lightly towards Itachi who single-handedly destroyed the Uchiha clan, not even the third generation.
Therefore, whether it is to appease Uchiha Itachi or to contain Uchiha Itachi, the village must strengthen the monitoring and protection of Sasuke.
Knowing this, Shinji not only did not move closer to Sasuke.
Instead, he deliberately pretended to be disgusted with Sasuke and kept a distance from him to avoid attracting anyone's attention. He
continued to wallow in asking for support!
