My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 15 Thinking

Ninja school, rooftop.

"If I can't change my physical fitness, the best way for me to fight against strong people is to use the substitution technique as the core..."

Link sat alone in the corner. Ever since his battle with Hatake Kakashi, he became famous in the ninja school.

There were not many people in the class to begin with, and when a classmate who was suspected to be a user of Ice Release appeared, he became a well-known figure in his class.

He was not interested in communicating with people of his own age, and was even less interested in the so-called classmates who came for the Ice Escape. Moreover, he had too many secrets that he could not tell others, and no one could get into his heart, let alone friends.

This led to him becoming increasingly lonely in the class. It was not others who isolated him, but he who isolated others.

Due to the education in the Ninja School, he has always been configuring his combat system according to the ninja's logic. After experiencing a disastrous defeat, he figured it out.

Before he could acquire other more powerful ninjutsu, he had to make use of his strongest ninjutsu.

Physical skills competition must be ruled out before the ninjutsu that amplifies physical skills is performed. Physical fitness is a big pitfall, which will become more and more obvious later. The key is that there are too many types of substitutes summoned by the substitution technique, and it is almost impossible to determine a relatively fixed pattern.

However, among the techniques he currently possesses, only the substitution technique has the highest upper limit, and he seems to have no other choice.

Compared to other ninjas releasing ninjutsu, he has a huge advantage——

Any ninjutsu is limited by the ability to control chakra. That is, for the same ninjutsu, releasing too much chakra and being unable to control it perfectly will cause the ninjutsu to fail. Releasing too little chakra is not enough to form the ninjutsu will also cause the ninjutsu to fail. Many ninjas who are not good at ninjutsu basically have problems here.

Some people can release the same ninjutsu more powerfully than others. The reason is that they have strong chakra control ability and can use more chakra to complete the same jutsu.

However, when Link releases his own mutated ninjutsu, he does not need to control the amount of chakra. He only needs to simply refine the chakra and release it in the general direction of the ninjutsu. The chakra will automatically disappear and the release will be completed through unknown means.

Therefore, he has a great advantage in releasing ninjutsu. He does not need to consider how to control it, he only needs to consider the distribution of chakra.

A clone technique + transformation technique that lasts about a minute will consume about 10% of his chakra.

If he wants to maintain the substitution technique for one minute, it will directly consume 30% of his chakra, not to mention the consumption after the substitute comes out, which shows how much this technique consumes.

Strictly speaking, his Substitution Technique, like the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, is a forbidden technique because it requires too much chakra to release.

Casually depleting chakra to the point where one would pass out is extremely dangerous.

Back to combat mode, because of his shortcomings in physical skills, in order to ensure that his body would not be directly attacked by the stand during battle, he had to use the clone technique to resist damage. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the stand was, it would be powerless due to the fragility of the body.

In fact, the consumption of 10% of chakra for a technique is already very high. No one can maintain % physical strength before a battle. Often, actions before a battle will refine a certain amount of chakra to maintain one's mobility.

Therefore, the best ninjutsu for a ninja should consume 5% to 8%. If a ninjutsu consumes too much, it must be used as a special move instead of an opening move.

Just like Hatake Kakashi's Raikiri. However, if the tactics are built entirely on substitution techniques, the entire battle process will become extremely strange.

In theory, he should summon a Stand before each battle begins, and decide how he fights and his own positioning in each battle based on the type and ability of the Stand.

It sounds fun, but it's very unreliable.

What if you summon a substitute to heal your teammates when you are fighting alone?
What should I do if I summon the Purple Hermit when I need a powerful attack?
There are too many problems. He has never seen any ninja fighting based on probability.

Even in the movies and TV shows of his previous life, except for Yu-Gi-Oh, he had basically never seen a battle where one had to draw cards before the fight, and win if one drew a powerful card, but lose if one drew a lousy card.

Anyone who has played RPG games knows how great it is to draw good skills, and how bad the game experience is when you draw bad skills...

Even if Link shortens the time when the Stand appears and increases the tolerance for error as much as possible, he can still spend money on ration pills to replenish the physical strength consumed during battle.

When the Stand he pulled out the first time was not suitable for fighting, facing the lightning-fast and time-sensitive fight, could he really hold on until he could pull out the Stand a second time?

Of course, Stands are not without advantages. They inherit the characteristics of the original JOJO comics. Only the person who owns the Stand can see the Stand. The students, teachers, and even Kakashi Hatake of the Ninja School cannot see the Stand.

Summoning a combat-type stand can greatly enhance his frontal combat capability. The effect of an auxiliary-type stand is also very magical. Some rule-type stands can easily kill the opponent with one blow as long as the conditions are met.

Well, basically what can be utilized are the abilities of the Stand, not the Stand's strength, speed and other things.

Because in the setting of the stand, strength C is at the level of an ordinary person, strength B is better than an ordinary person, and strength A is excellent. However, the specific performances are a mess and very confusing. Some strength A can break diamonds, some strength A can't even pry open iron fences, and some strength C can even destroy parking lots. The difference is so huge that it is unimaginable.

However, the vast majority of Stands are unable to compete with Ninjas simply based on the strength and speed they display.

With the blessing of chakra, the physical ninjas are extremely resistant to attacks and have extraordinary strength. The speed that they value most can completely surpass human vision with the blessing of the instant body movement technique.

Therefore, in Link's case, apart from a few Stands that can engage in hand-to-hand combat, more emphasis is placed on the Stand's special abilities.

Even the Hermit's Purple, which is jokingly called "Your stand-in is the most useless, old man", is actually very useful for obtaining intelligence.

But instability is always a problem.

Considering his ability to reuse the substitute technique, it would be better to find a way to improve the tolerance. If the substitute summoned the first time is not useful, then summon it twice. If two times don't work, then summon it a third time. You can always summon a suitable combat substitute.

To achieve this prerequisite——

"So I need teammates (tanks), preferably ones as tough and strong as Uzumaki Naruto, to help me absorb damage until I can summon a useful Stand."

Link thought thoughtfully.
