Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

Chapter 19 The Heavenly Grassland! (Please vote with recommendation tickets and monthly tickets to continue reading)

April 15, Konoha Year 39.

Shuichi Hoshita formally submitted his application to graduate early.

Although it couldn't compare to Kakashi's graduation at age 5, it still attracted considerable attention.

For Kimura Hiroya and Sarutobi Hiruzen, this was expected, so the approval was granted on the same day.

The next day, under the watchful eyes of Shizune and the others, Hoshino Shuichi entered the examination room prepared just for him.

The written test will last 10 minutes.

Hoshino Shuichi had no problem with the Three Bodies Technique test.

There were no other programs or surprises, and Hiruzen Sarutobi did not come.

Everything was uneventful.

"Congratulations, Shuichi! From today onwards, you are a true ninja!"

After the assessment, Kimura Hiroya smiled and handed Hoshino Shuichi the ninja headband.

Hoshino Hideichi reached out and took it, bowing deeply and saying, "Thank you, thank you for your guidance, Kimura-sensei!"

This thank you was heartfelt.

Kimura Hiroya answered many of his questions not only in class but also outside of class.

That's why he was able to master all the courses at the Ninja Academy ahead of time.

Kimura Koya accepted the gratitude because he felt that Hoshishita Shuichi was the true genius he had mentored, while Hatake Kakashi was not.

"The path of a ninja is fraught with danger, Shuichi. I hope you can continue on this path."

Kimura Hiroya offered his blessings.

Hoshita Shuichi nodded solemnly: "Kimura-sensei, I will!"

Hiroya Kimura patted Shuichi Hoshishita on the shoulder and laughed, "Go ahead, let your classmates congratulate you. But remember to wait for your team leader at the Hokage Building tomorrow."

Hoshino bowed respectfully before turning and leaving the examination room.

Shizune immediately stepped forward: "Shuichi, congratulations!"

Immediately afterwards, Might Guy, Nohara Rin, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi, and others also gathered around to offer their congratulations.

At this moment, Hoshino Shuichi became the most eye-catching figure.

Standing on the outermost edge, Obito Uchiha clenched his fists tightly: "Even Shuichi graduated! Obito, you're from the Uchiha clan! You have to work harder and catch up with that arrogant Kakashi!"

……

Returning home from school, Hoshino Shuichi suddenly felt a little out of sorts.

Starting today, he no longer needs to go to school.

Then the previous plans should be revised.

Also.

Who will be my team leader?

There is anticipation for the Xingxia Show area.

He learned from Tsunade that not every newly graduated genin would be guided by a jonin.

Every year, new students graduate from the Ninja Academy, but the number of Jonin in Konoha is limited, and it's impossible for them all to become instructors.

Therefore, only those with exceptional talent can receive guidance from the Jonin-level instructors.

More often than not, the teams are actually led by Chunin, which is the more common situation.

Because in any ninja village, the core strength consists of Chunin.

Jonin are high-ranking members of each ninja village, a very small number of them, and are capable of standing alone.

Every Jonin possesses not only exceptional strength or talent, but also an abundance of mission experience.

Hoshino Shuichi felt that, based on his performance, he should at least be worthy of being led by a Jonin, right?

Kakashi's team leader is a Jonin from the Sarutobi clan.

After thinking for a moment, Hoshino Hideichi took his ninja tool bag, a senbon stick dangling from his mouth, and went out to Tianxiang Shop.

"Hey, Shuichi?"

Tianyun was quite surprised to see Xingxia Xiuyi, but quickly realized what he meant and laughed, "You graduated early!"

Hoshita Hideichi smiled and said, "Of course."

"Congratulations!"

Tianyun smiled and said, then immediately turned around and took out a wooden box, handing it to Xingxia Xiuyi: "Hey, this is a graduation gift prepared for you. Open it and take a look!"

"this……"

Hoshino Shuichi hesitated for a moment, because Tenon had given him an exquisite kunai for his birthday not long ago.

Upon seeing his expression, Tianyun immediately put her hands on her hips and said unhappily, "What, are you going to refuse my gift?"

Hoshino Hideichi quickly took the wooden box: "Sister, you're not short of money, I won't refuse."

Tianyun was delighted: "That's more like it! Let's open it and take a look!"

Xingxia Xiu nodded and immediately opened the wooden box, inside which was a short sword with a sheath.

Tianyun smiled and said, "This was specially prepared by my sister, so you can give it a name!"

Hoshino Shuichi sensed something was amiss, took out a short sword, put down the wooden box, and then drew the sword.

The short knife has a straight blade, is single-edged, and has a gleaming sheen.

As Hoshino Hideichi channeled his chakra, the blade trembled slightly, and a layer of shimmering light appeared on it.

Chakra flowed smoothly and effortlessly.

It really is a chakra blade!

Chakra knives are not cheap, and they are also rare.

Xingxia Xiu's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, sister. This sword is called... Tiancong!"

Tian Cong...

Tianyun's smile widened even more as she said, "I'm glad you like it, Xiuyi."

The grenades brought great benefits to her and her family. Although she would share some of the money with Hoshino Shuichi, it was far from enough. Of course, she had to compensate her younger brother.

Looking at Hoshino Hideichi, Tenyun suddenly felt a pang of melancholy.

It's still too small!

However, she went out excitedly and returned with a leather belt in her hand.

After personally tying it on Hoshino Hideichi, Tenyun laughed and said, "Hey, this way, Tenshou can be tucked into your waistband."

"When we get a long sword later, we can carry it on our backs."

Hoshino Hideichi reached out and tried it; drawing the sword was very convenient and wouldn't affect his ninja tool pouch.

So he abandoned the idea of ​​buying more ninja tools and decided to first master the use of the senbon needles and the short sword.

After lingering briefly at the Tianxiang shop, Hoshino Hideichi took his leave and went alone to his usual training ground to familiarize himself with the use of Senbon and Ama-no-Tsurugi.

I ate a bento box for lunch, and in the afternoon I took out the scroll of the Shadow Clone Technique to study.

With a foundation in the Shadow Clone Technique, the Shadow Clone Technique wasn't too difficult for Hoshino Shuichi; the key was still the chakra.

In less than an hour, he had basically mastered it.

However, it can only create one shadow clone, which is still quite weak.

After taking out the unpalatable soldier's ration pills and regaining his strength, Hoshino Shuichi immediately created a shadow clone.

In this way, the main body and the shadow clone can practice swordsmanship on one side and the use of the Thousand Needles on the other.

However, Hoshino Shuichi was very cautious, testing the use of Shadow Clone Technique little by little, without pushing it too hard to test his endurance.

Therefore, the first shadow clone only took 10 minutes.

Fortunately, it can withstand it completely.

The second time, 20 minutes.

I felt significantly more tired, and my memory was also severely impacted.

"Um?"

"Perhaps I can use the memory palace..."

Feeling the impact of the memories brought back by the shadow clone, Hoshino Shuichi suddenly thought of the memory palace.

Is it possible to store the memories brought back by the shadow clones directly in the memory palace to reduce the impact on the brain?

"It should be possible."

Hoshino Shuichi pondered, "However, the memory palace still needs to be modified, with the addition of cursed seals and sealing techniques, so that this memory technique can be completely transformed into a ninjutsu."

Of course, he also knew that this could not completely eliminate the dangers of using the Shadow Clone Technique extensively.

In particular, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique can be considered a forbidden technique.

The greatest danger of this technique lies in physical strength.

One method involves evenly distributing chakra, while the other, if not properly controlled, can easily lead to one's own demise.

Another issue is that even ordinary shadow clones can cause problems.

It's the fatigue brought back by the shadow clone.

This requires exceptional physical fitness!

Otherwise, a sudden surge of intense fatigue can easily lead to physical collapse.

"Indeed, the more solutions you have, the more difficulties you encounter."

Hoshino Hideichi sighed inwardly.

Transforming a memory palace into ninjutsu and sealing techniques is no simple feat.

To achieve sufficiently strong physical fitness, besides training, the fastest way is through vocabulary.

Keep trying!

Hoshino Shuichi continued to bury himself in his training.
