Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Chapter 10 He's Here! (Please vote and give me your monthly tickets to continue reading)

The morning passed in the blink of an eye. After a short rest after lunch, Hoshino Shuichi stood on a tree branch, hung upside down on it, and clasped his hands together to refine his chakra.

This is also a way to train chakra control.

After persisting for half an hour, he landed, drank some salt water, and went to the riverbank.

Jingyin and Kai are still practicing treading water, while Xingxia Xiuyi has already become very proficient after just one morning.

Standing by the river, after a moment of contemplation, he suddenly formed a hand seal.

Fire Release: Flame Bullet!

As Xingxia Xiu opened his mouth, a line of fire shot out and quickly extended more than three meters towards the river surface. The flames gathered, accumulated, and expanded, forming a ball.

The fireball, barely half a meter in size, roared and created waves and mist.

"sharp!"

A silent gasp escaped from the river.

Kai looked up and grinned, "As expected of Shuichi, you've learned Fire Release ninjutsu so quickly."

"Huh?"

"etc……"

Kai suddenly bared his teeth and claws, then fell into the river.

……

By the river, Hoshino Shizuka silently concluded: "The chakra output is not fast enough, nor is it stable enough."

"Moreover, it is not cohesive enough. The more cohesive it is, the stronger its explosive power, the faster the fire line is spewed out, and the faster the attack speed."

After reflecting on his actions, Hoshino Shuichi's attention fell on the tree of terms in his mind.

Because another term has been added.

"really……"

Seeing the entry's name, Xingxia Xiu was not surprised.

Entry: Fire Release Expert

Acquisition Requirements: Must be proficient in at least 5 Fire Release ninjutsu of at least C rank.

Effect: Fire Release talent increased by 100%, Fire Release ninjutsu can be cast without hand seals.

Excellent, truly excellent!

However, obtaining this entry was not easy for Hoshino Shuichi.

Putting aside the difficulty of mastering ninjutsu, just collecting five fire-style ninjutsu of at least C rank requires considerable effort.

Having experience learning Fire Release: Flame Bullet, Hoshino Shuichi was confident he could learn the Great Fireball Technique, which he had stolen from Obito Uchiha, on his own.

Adding the Dragonfire Technique, which is also C-rank and left by his father, that makes three.

Where can I get the two I'm missing?

There are no shops in Konoha that sell ninjutsu.

"Get it from Tianxiang shop?"

After pondering for a moment, Hoshino Shizuka decided to put it aside for the time being.

……

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day of rest, Hoshino Hideichi went to the orphanage.

Unfortunately, Yakushi Nonou went on a mission and hasn't returned for over a month.

After spending the day at the orphanage, Hoshino Shuichi returned home in the evening and immediately fulfilled all the conditions required to become a transformation expert.

activation!

As Xingxia Xiu made a thought, the "Transformation Expert" entry on the entry tree was lit up in green.

The next moment he sensed a distinct difference.

The Transformation Technique is like an innate skill or an instinct that has been solidified; it doesn't require hand seals and can be used at will.

"No wonder it's a green keyword!"

Hoshino Shizuka secretly praised him, and then, with a thought, his form transformed into Kakashi.

No hand seals required, no smoke, and the process takes less than 0.1 seconds—it's incredibly smooth!

"Okay, okay!"

Hoshino Shuichi became increasingly satisfied and looked forward to the entry "Fire Release Expert" even more.

It can be used stealthily and suddenly without the need for hand seals.

Furthermore, its high speed of execution provides an unparalleled advantage in battle.

If the enemy did not have prior intelligence about him, they would definitely be caught off guard.

Even experienced people cannot predict the ninjutsu he is about to use.

After all, when using ninjutsu in battle, no one would actually shout out the name of the ninjutsu first.

After dispelling the transformation spell, Hoshino Shuichi pondered to himself, "It seems my training path should be guided by the Glossary Tree."

Trigger the entry, complete the condition (cultivation), and activate the entry.

"I'm already proficient at treading water, climbing trees, and scaling cliffs; you could say I've completed the training."

"I have also mastered the Fireball spell, which meets the requirements of the keyword tree."

"So, in addition to maintaining basic physical training and fitness, I should focus my energy on my professional development."

The summer training progress was faster than Hoshino Shuichi had expected, and now he was changing his plans again.

"However, why aren't the skills related to taijutsu and ninja tool throwing activated?"

Hoshita Shuichi was secretly puzzled.

Taijutsu and ninja tool throwing are so unimpressive?

is there any other reason?

Hoshino Shuichi thought about it carefully: "Could it be because there's no system?"

The physical techniques he is currently practicing do not have a system or a fixed name for the moves.

The so-called Leaf Whirlwind and Leaf Power Whirlwind are actually systems created by Might Guy himself.

Touching his chin, Hoshino Shuichi felt he had finally understood.

So he shamelessly named his taijutsu "Konoha Style Technique" and his ninja tool throwing "Konoha Style Ninja Tool Throwing".

Sure enough, the entry tree reacted immediately, and two gray-white entry tree leaves appeared.

Entry: Physical Skills Expert

Acquisition Requirements: Defeat Kakashi a total of 50 times in physical combat.

Effects: Physical skill talent increased by 100%, physique increased by 100%, and nerve reaction speed increased by 100%.

Entry: Ninja Tool Expert

Acquisition Requirements: Proficient in using at least 10 types of ninja tools.

Effects: Increases ninja tool usage talent by 100%, constitution by 100%, and nerve reaction speed by 100%.

"hiss……"

Seeing the two newly appeared terms, Hoshino Shuichi was very envious.

Because it improves the body's physical condition!

For a ninja, having a physique with high talent and a high potential is extremely important.

Physical fitness can be said to determine the upper limit of chakra.

For a ninja, the maximum chakra limit can be considered the ceiling that their overall achievements can reach.

"Don't rush, take it one step at a time, we'll get them all eventually."

Shuichi Hoshino is becoming increasingly motivated.

……

Time flies, and September has arrived in the blink of an eye. There are only 4 days left before the start of the new school term.

Hoshino Shuichi and the others officially ended their summer campaign and decided to spend the remaining four days as a vacation.

Xingxiaxiu decided to stay at Tianxiang store for the remaining four days to focus on making the hot charm.

Yes, he has completely mastered the making of the Explosion Talisman.

Despite Hoshino Shuichi's chakra reserves, he could only produce a maximum of 3 sheets at a time before needing to rest and recover his stamina.

root base.

Danzo received information about Hoshinobi Shuichi again.

Compared to the last time, a lot of new content has been added.

He is proficient in the Three Body Techniques, Fire Release: Flame Bullet, and Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique (most likely he learned these techniques from observing hand seals from Obito Uchiha).

The transformation technique appears to require no hand seals to perform.

I have made a basic mastery of medical ninjutsu—basic healing techniques.

They are now able to make explosive tags independently.

……

After Danzo had finished observing, the Root ninja in charge of observing Hoshino Shuichi said, "Lord Danzo, the Ninja Academy is about to start. With Hoshino Shuichi's strength, he will definitely make a name for himself in the new semester and catch the attention of the Third Hokage."

In fact, Hoshino Shuichi had already caught the eye of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi. After all, Hiruzen Sarutobi was the principal of the Ninja Academy, and Hoshino Shuichi had consistently scored full marks in the written theory exams, so it was impossible for him not to notice him.

However, Danzo naturally understood his subordinate's unspoken meaning.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's understanding of Shuichi Hoshita is definitely not as good as theirs. Once Shuichi Hoshita shines, and Root wants to absorb him, Hiruzen Sarutobi may not be willing to do so.

Danzo's gaze darkened, and he said, "Then let's go see him tonight!"
