Chapter 23: Hidden Leaf Village
🕑 Added 2021-02-21 07:40:33 +0000 UTCConcentrating on the distant deer, Shikamaru tried to fold just one seal.
- Rat!
At the same moment, his chakra merged into the shadow and establish instant control, the shadow immediately overtook the deer. He froze and stood motionless.
"Hmm, even with one seal it turned out, amazing ..." - already slightly delighted, Shikamaru tried to make the deer move. At first everything worked out almost perfect, but after almost a full minute of training. He felt a slight weakness and some weakening of the chakra. Realizing that he was close to the limit, Shikamaru quickly dispelled the technique.
Yet he was still a simple child, even though he had a huge predisposition for the Yin and Hiden of the clan, he still had little chakra.
Although the technique turned out with only one seal, this should not be attributed to some kind of great luck, it was just all about the pedigree. Typically, seals could be cut fairly quickly, with just a couple of months of training. But since Shikamaru's bloodline was so strong, it was much easier. He didn't even have to develop control much. So now, in principle, he could well begin to study at least all clan techniques. Of course he cannot just use them.
When he finished his technique, Shikamaru smiled.
- Well, the first Secret Technique has been studied, nine more, and you can get a reward for the task.
This task was simple, it was from the general list of technical tasks. Learn ten ninjutsu, genjutsu, taijutsu, and of course the secret techniques. But the difference was that the secret techniques, although they could be the same nin, tai and gen, did not count towards other tasks. They were only valid for one Secret Technician. So to complete two tasks at once will not work out and thus cheat.
Looking around, Shikamaru chuckled.
- Well, the chakra is still there, it's time to check the Taijutsu scroll. Stop gathering dust in my head.
In fact, the scroll was not that special. They were simple movements, a list of exercises, and a few fighting techniques. All the rest of the information was devoted to proper nutrition, the creation of several useful decoctions and healing pills for recovery. Of course, they were all of poor quality. After all, the scroll was more suitable for ordinary people or just starting their way to Taijutsu. Someone more experienced probably trains with a more advanced training system. But, Shikamaru wanted to practice in it. He still had no alternative, and he didn't really want to buy something in the system.
At the hospital, Shikamaru had already tested basic exercises like push-ups, squats, but he hadn't tested fighting techniques. In addition, Shikamaru planned to learn the style of his clan, but it turned out that this style is almost exactly the same. Most of the leaf village practiced the same leaf style. Only a few clans like the Uchiha or the Hyuuga had their own style. But this is understandable, they still had a special advantage that ordinary taijutsu could not reveal. Although, maybe there were other ninjas in the village, like the same Might Guy, who had a different style. But such training was not suitable for everyone. So Shikamaru decided to rely on the system and learn the basic style from there. In any case, it was only for the first time. In the future, he wanted to learn from experienced ninjas in taijutsu and only then draw up his own training program. Well, in the future, you can come up with your own style, when you have experience and knowledge.
Shikamaru didn’t start by sharpening punches right away, he started stretching and warming up his whole body. After that, he got into a rack.
Recalling some of the techniques from the scroll, Shikamaru took the correct position and began to clearly beat his fists into the air. It was a classic exercise in martial arts. Both fists at the waist, then a blow, right, and then left ...
* Ha! * * Ha! * * Ha! *
After practicing the punches, Shikamaru proceeded to his feet. Having understood the technique, he started practicing strikes on a tree. In the future, he will definitely need a sparring partner, but at four years old, that's enough. In addition, he retained skills from the past world, and he was good at hand-to-hand combat. Unfortunately, in this world, this will only work against ordinary people or children like himself.
After spending two hours practicing strikes, he ran a couple of kilometers in the woods and returned home. After rinsing in the shower and changing into simple clothes, black breeches and a T-shirt of the same color, Shikamaru looked in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction. He didn't really like his hair, but for now it will do.
After finishing his clothes, Shikamaru returned to the kitchen and had lunch. Mother and father had already gone about their business, so he was free to do whatever he wanted. Noticing a simple note on the refrigerator with the words:
“Food is in the fridge, don't walk for a long time, we'll be in the evening. Mother"
Smiling, Shikamaru turned and walked to the exit. Unfortunately, no money was left for him. Maybe kids his age are not supposed to, Shikamaru vaguely understood the rules. But that didn't bother him, he had some ryos left from his last walk, and if more are needed, he can easily get them.
Buttoning his sandals, Shikamaru closed the front door and left.
The Nara area consisted of about a couple of dozen houses and several large buildings. There were also training grounds, shops, eateries. The houses were mostly located on the edge of the forest.
To begin with, Shikamaru wanted to explore the area, and then head to the city center and fully explore Konoha.
He didn’t spend much time looking around the entire block. He wanted to memorize the main buildings, just in case. So a detour was necessary.
Having finished here, he went to inspect the village. It took more time this time. He walked through the main buildings. Visited the famous belt Ichiraku, which was not yet so famous. I ate a couple of portions of ramen and moved on.
Hokage Rock, Residence, Konoha Police ... He examined everything and memorized. He even wanted to go up the Hokage Rock and see what was there. But, unfortunately, access was denied there. So he turned around and walked away ...
Next in line was the Hokage mansion, the Naka River, the library, and of course a huge cemetery.
After finishing here, he went to other areas ...
He did not go to the territory of other clans. I just remembered well where they were located and went on.
He visited the ninja academy, watched the children practice, then went to the training grounds. There he watched young shinobi train with their mentors and memorized a couple of techniques.
Most of the Konoha ninja had a similar style of dress. A dark shirt with swirl patterns on the shoulders, a green jacket with a similar pattern on the back. Some of the ninja bandaged their legs, while others did without it. Although, among them, of course, there were outstanding guys wearing bright colors.
At the end of his walk, Shikamaru visited the memorial to the fallen heroes of the village. It was a landmark place, with hundreds of names of fallen leaf ninja. There were also the familiar names of the Nara clan. Many Uchiha surnames, including even Obito Uchiha. The list was huge ...
Seeing him, Shikamaru could only shake his head and smile wryly ...
What Hashirama changed was he brought clan wars to the world level. Although the anime was interesting, living in the world of shinobi was much more dangerous than in the past world of Shikamaru. Even as a thief and a criminal, death in his memory was not a frequent occurrence. Although, there were of course exceptions ...
