My ninjutsu is not right

Chapter 31 Goal
"Are you going to take part in the Chunin Exams, or accept a C-rank mission?"

Nara Saltwater asked.

The Chunin Exams and C-rank missions?
Link was stunned for a moment, and began to weigh the pros and cons in his mind.

There is no doubt that both the Chunin Exam and the C-rank mission are opportunities for him to be promoted to Chunin.

The Chunin Exam is more difficult, after all, you have to fight against ninjas, and if you perform well, you may be able to become a Chunin directly. C-level missions basically do not involve fighting with ninjas, but you will enter a stage of slowly accumulating tasks.

"So, our next mission is C-level?" He didn't think too long, then looked up and asked with a smile.

There is no need to take part in the Chunin Exam. Intelligence is very important to a ninja. If he fights openly in front of so many people, his intelligence will inevitably be leaked. It doesn't take too long to accumulate tasks and upgrade. It doesn't matter as long as he is willing to work hard. There is really no need to expose his intelligence in an exhibition match.

Nara Yushio understood what his subordinate meant and was somewhat surprised. He had thought that his ambitious subordinate would choose to participate in the Chunin Exam.

But that’s fine too.

"It's settled then. You'll be the one to talk to them about this?" he asked.

As a guiding jonin, he delegated power to his subordinates. The meaning was very clear. He was going to let go and prepare to recommend his subordinates to become chunins and form the subsequent "Link Squad".

Next, as long as there are no mistakes in the mission outside the village, even if the performance is not that outstanding, becoming a Chunin should not be a problem.

"Yeah." Link nodded in response, looking at the guiding jonin who turned to leave, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Saltwater."

Nara Yano didn't look back, waved his hand, gathered chakra under his feet, and disappeared on the spot.

【finally……】

Link clenched his fists, his joy was evident on his face. Becoming a Chunin was faster than he had imagined.

On the way home, he almost couldn't help but hum.

Don't get me wrong, it's humming.

His tense mood finally relaxed a lot. To celebrate his progress, he even went to Ganligan to buy himself a piece of chestnut yokan to reward himself.

[Ganli Gan: Located in the Tea Street of Konoha Village, it is most famous for its desserts such as chestnut yokan and chestnut biscuits]

[Tea Street: The core street of Konoha Village, full of tea houses and dessert houses. While sipping tea and dining, you can enjoy the Hokage Rock up close]

Yokan is not cheap to begin with, and the price is quite high in the core commercial street or at the famous dessert shop Gan Li Gan.

It’s really delicious.

As a growing child who exercises a lot every day, Link's love for sweets can almost be said to be a physical instinct. Ever since Xia brought him a box of sweet desserts one day, he has been thinking about it.

Now that he could leave the village to do C-rank missions and had a chance to be promoted to Chunin, he had to celebrate. The first person he thought of was Gan Li Gan.

"It's so expensive, my wallet, it's so delicious..."

He originally planned to go home for dinner, and then make some tea to slowly taste the expensive yokan. On the way, he thought of his expenses and felt distressed. He was also curious about the taste of chestnut yokan. Seeing that there was no one on the roadside, he secretly broke off a piece from the packaging and put it in his mouth. (It was a whole piece of yokan, the kind that you need to cut yourself)
Then you enter the stage of eating another piece, since there is still more, so have another piece.

The little face kept moving and chewing without stopping all the way. Before reaching home, Link reached into the box again.

"?"

Where is my big piece of chestnut yokan? He opened his little hand and felt around in the box, then pulled his hand back and realized something:

Such an expensive yokan was eaten up on the way?

It hurts, but I still want to eat.

Link returned home carrying the empty box. When he was about to throw it away, he suddenly remembered that he had broken it by hand and there should still be some crumbs inside. He couldn't resist the temptation and opened the box and poured the crumbs into his mouth.

good to eat.

He threw the box into the trash bag with satisfaction, and while sitting cross-legged on the bed thinking about what to eat for dinner, he looked at his fingers that were emitting a fragrant aroma from breaking the yokan.

"Ahem~" Link coughed lightly and gradually moved closer to the finger. He was alone at home, so...
-
Anyway, back to serious topics.

Initially, Link thought about becoming a Chunin before Konoha's collapse plan. Then, there would be three years before the Shippuden began, and it would not be a problem for him to climb to the Jonin.

Now that he has the opportunity more than a year in advance, he will have more room for error. After becoming a Chunin, he can apply to the village for ninjutsu training.

His goal is to

Earth escape technique: Earth dragon hiding technique.

C-rank ninjutsu, not difficult to learn, with very low chakra consumption, and based on the name, it has the potential to mutate into interesting abilities.

The most important thing is that the Earth Dragon Hiding Technique, the Heart Beheading Technique, the Fish Reflection in the Earth, and the Earth Submergence Technique belong to the same type of ninjutsu, all of which use various methods to sneak into the earth and wait for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack. He has already learned the Heart Beheading Technique, and he should be able to use it after getting a little familiar with it.

As for things like Raikiri and Flying Thunder God, well, it's okay to think about them occasionally, there's no need to pursue them now.

Normally, I should be able to buy the Earth Dragon Hidden Technique, but...

The Earth Ryuukin Jutsu is an eliminated type among a large number of ninjutsu that require entry into the earth, so it is not available on the market at all.

For example, diving in the soil involves using chakra to liquefy the soil, allowing you to move freely in the soil like swimming. The principle of fish reflection in the soil is similar, and the technique of beheading in the heart is based on a similar principle.

The Earth Dragon Hidden Technique is an obsolete earth-hiding ninjutsu. It uses chakra to turn the soil into fine sand particles, and then digs forward like an earth dragon...

Others are moving around in the soil as they please, but you, Tulongyin, are the only ones digging and digging holes. You are not qualified to attend this meeting at all.

Therefore, in Konoha Village, which is not famous for its earth escape technique, the Earth Dragon Hidden Technique is not available on the market at all. It is estimated that only some ninjas who have experienced wars and are proficient in ninjutsu know this ninjutsu.

The Earth Ryuukin Jutsu is not completely without advantages. This ninjutsu can sense targets on the ground underground, and at the same time can go deeper underground (after all, it is digging), which can effectively avoid the search of sensing ninjas, so it has better concealment ability and is very useful whether it is a surprise attack or escape.

In addition, the chakra required for release is extremely low (you need to dig it out yourself after releasing it, so there is extra physical consumption), which is a ninjutsu that definitely has a chance to be used in specific situations.

The reason for being eliminated is also very simple.

Among ordinary ninjas, the proportion of perception ninjas is not large, and the depth of underground diving is of little significance to ordinary ninjas.

If you really want to save chakra, then the Fish in the Earth doesn't consume much chakra. If you want to dive into the earth, the fastest way is to dive into the earth. If you want to have a surprise attack, then the Beheading Technique in Your Heart is the best...

All in all, they will naturally be eliminated by ordinary ninjas and the market.
