Chapter 7 The Meaning of the Hand of the Forest
Chapter 7 The Meaning of the Hand of the Forest
Tsunade knew very well that Shizune's talent was actually quite good.
Many medical ninjas, when attempting Yang Release nature transformation for the first time, often take several days or even weeks to stabilize.
As for Qingyu... she did it almost the very next second after hearing the explanation.
This speed can only be described as terrifying.
"It seems that the bloodline of the Senju clan is indeed fully manifested in you."
Tsunade leaned back on the sofa, her tone wistful.
Qingyu looked up at her.
Tsunade shook the water bottle in her hand and continued:
"Our Senju clan has been known throughout the world for two things since the Warring States period."
She held up two slender, white fingers.
"First, it has a massive amount of chakra."
"Secondly, they are able to master countless powerful ninjutsu, including taijutsu, genjutsu, and ninjutsu, in great numbers."
Qingyu listened quietly.
That's right. In fact, the Senju clan is not only powerful in terms of chakra reserves, but also in terms of the inheritance of ninjutsu.
In the setting book of "The Book of Formations", the full name of the Senju clan is "Senju Clan of the Forest".
They are also known as "the clan with a thousand hands" and are feared by people. The clan has masters who are skilled in various ninjutsu, taijutsu and genjutsu.
Similar to what Qingyu was pondering, Tsunade continued:
"The 'hand' refers to the ability to form hand seals and release ninjutsu, while 'Thousand Hands' means 'countless techniques.'"
Tsunade looked at the lingering green chakra in Kiyoyu's palm.
"Medical ninjutsu requires extremely high chakra control. The fact that you were able to successfully condense Yang Release chakra on your first attempt shows that you have exceptional talent in Yang Release."
In this respect, she can be considered to have perfectly inherited the genes of the Senju clan.
"So that's how it is..."
Shizune blinked, feeling somewhat disappointed, but her gaze towards Qingyu was filled with more admiration.
Their family is actually quite strong.
My uncle died young, but he also made a name for himself during his lifetime, thanks to his S-rank ninjutsu "Spirit Transformation Technique".
As the only surviving surviving child, Shizune naturally inherited this ninjutsu, but it was too difficult for her to learn.
"yes."
Qingyu stroked her chin.
It seems that not only his special traits, but also his inherent aptitude is quite good.
Being mixed-race is a matter of luck. If you're lucky, you can combine the best features of both families. If you're not so lucky, you might just be an ordinary person who combines the worst features of both families.
But if this were in the ninja world, it would be considered a regression to ancestral ways.
There is only one source of bloodline limits: the Otsutsuki!
"Tsunade-neechan, when are you going to teach me the next medical ninjutsu?"
Qingyu asked.
"Learning something doesn't mean you've mastered it. Wait until you can use it proficiently before you can say that."
Tsunade shook her head.
This little rascal really has a way of aiming too high.
Seeing this, Qingyu had no choice but to give up.
Tsunade's words made sense, and Kiyoha planned to first practice the existing ninjutsu more thoroughly.
Otherwise, it would be terrible if something unexpected happened on the battlefield.
"In a few months, I can take you to Konoha Hospital for an internship. You can go to Konoha Hospital more often when you have free time; there will be some basic training there."
Tsunade thought for a moment and said.
Due to her hemophobia, she could only teach Kiyoha and Shizune ninjutsu and its theoretical aspects.
However, in practice, other medical ninjas would be needed to do it.
She hasn't performed surgery herself in a very, very long time.
"Okay, thank you, Tsunade-neechan."
Qingyu immediately expressed her gratitude.
This is a rare opportunity.
In this world, influence and connections matter.
Ordinary people can also go to Konoha Hospital for training, but they all have to wait for seniority. Unless they are very talented, they can get preferential treatment in resources.
Once Qingyu goes in, she'll probably get these things.
After all, as a medical ninja, Tsunade is already the top female medical professional in Konoha.
……
Early the next morning.
Ninja Academy.
Today's lesson is still about throwing ninja tools.
The Chunin instructor stood before the many students and said:
"Yesterday we practiced the basic throwing of shuriken, and today we'll add kunai training."
"The advantage of shuriken is its lightness, making it suitable for restraint and harassment, while kunai are heavier, with greater lethality and penetrating power, and can also be held in the hand for use in close combat."
Qingyu listened from below.
Ninjas have a wide variety of throwing tools, but ninja schools mainly teach the mainstream kunai, triangular shuriken, and square shuriken.
Besides these, there are many other types, such as the giant Fuma Shuriken, or the special three-pronged kunai like Minato Namikaze.
A more advanced technique involves attaching a thread to the ring hole at the end of a shuriken or kunai. This allows the user to control the trajectory of the ninja tool after it has been thrown, or to retrieve it when necessary.
Some ninjas skilled in ninjutsu would also use threads to attach ninjutsu to ninja tools, creating unexpected effects.
He had learned all of this from Tsunade.
After training last night, Qingyu discovered that the bonus from the E-rank Hatake-ryu shuriken could also be obtained with kunai.
Soon, the Chunin instructor clapped his hands, allowing the students to train freely.
Today is the second day of formal enrollment. Students only talk to people they know well, and small groups are formed at this time.
Qingyu gripped the kunai and attempted to throw it at the target in front of him.
Kakashi looked at Qingyu's movements and found them strangely familiar.
Why did Qingyu's movements seem somewhat like his own?
Is it just my imagination?
Kakashi shook his head and began training as well.
"Let my youth burn bright!"
Might Guy began training intensively.
As a commoner ninja, he had exceptionally high energy levels.
Although he has poor chakra control and low talent in ninjutsu and genjutsu.
However, his talent in physical combat is exceptional.
"Kakashi, wanna spar?"
Might Guy ran up to Kakashi with great enthusiasm.
He has already identified Kakashi as the person he wants to challenge.
"don't want."
Kakashi flatly refused.
If we're talking about sparring, he'd actually prefer to spar with Qingyu.
Hearing Kakashi's refusal, Might Guy was not discouraged and decided to start training on his own.
"Kakashi, Guy might be very strong in the future."
Seeing this, Qingyu stopped what she was doing and mentioned it.
Might Guy's kick that almost sealed the fate of the series was supposedly intended for Kakashi...
Qingyu found it hard to imagine how Kakashi would handle this attack.
The speed of the Death Gate is so fast that it distorts space itself.
If Might Guy were immortal and delivered another kick, even Madara Uchiha in his Six Paths form probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"You have good taste, Qingyu!"
Upon hearing Qingyu's words, Might Guy's goodwill towards her immediately increased.
After yesterday's self-introduction, he remembered Qingyu's name.
Matt Kai gave Qingyu a thumbs up, revealing two rows of white teeth.
[Collectible trait detected: Perseverance]
[E-level trait: perseverance]
[Effect: You will find it easier to enter a state of focused concentration when practicing any skill.]
Are you focused...?
Looking at the traits he had suddenly collected, Qingyu guessed that they were dropped by Might Guy.
