"Swing the sword a hundred times!"

Chapter 164: Why don’t you step on a plum blossom pile?

As Junko said, training is boring.

She didn't learn any routines or techniques right from the beginning. What Izuna did was just swing the sword, swing the sword, and then swing the sword again.

Izuna knows that this is the foundation, and also knows that this is the foundation of kendo.Because the swordsmanship of ninjas did not appear out of thin air, although the samurai did not even lose their swordsmanship.But this does not mean that swordsmanship and samurai have become the dust of history.

Swordsmanship was not forgotten in the corner of the world with the end of the samurai, although it cannot be said that it was carried forward with the rise of the ninja.

But it can also be said that it spread among ninjas with the rise of ninjas.When two ninjas are of the same level, armed ones have an advantage over bare-handed ones, and long weapons have an advantage over short weapons. This principle also works in this world.Even if you use it properly, holding weapons can make up for your own shortcomings to a certain extent.

Therefore, many ninjas also learn swordsmanship, but they are not as in-depth as samurai.

Swing the sword a hundred times, this is what Izuna did when he first started learning swordsmanship, a hundred times.He has swung much more than this before, and now let him swing the sword a hundred times again...

"Huha~huha~huha." Quan Nai just wanted to finish the hundred times quickly and then move on to the next subject.

There is no seriousness at all, there is nothing like taking advantage of others or trying to get by.This is a repetitive mechanical movement, and it is really difficult to catch fish or muddle through.

"What are you doing?"

At this moment, Tomoko, who didn't know why he was gone, appeared here.She looked at Quan Nai's rapid swing of the sword with some curiosity and said, "Is this sword practice?"

"You know?" Junko, who was lying under the tree, said as if she was a little surprised.

"How could you not know?" Tomoko felt like she was being underestimated and said, "Isn't it like this that often appeared in anime before? As long as you are practicing kendo, there will definitely be actions, and nothing else can be included. But this one must be there. "

"There is no such thing as learning routines and skills, but this is also necessary. Then the protagonist will become a top master and know a lot of unique tricks by just swaying."

"Speaking of which." Tomoko said, probably knowing something about this scene: "Aren't you going to teach Izuna your swordsmanship? That's not how you do it, right? Expect him to swing the sword, swing the sword, and then change his shape with a snap. What kind of peerless master have you become?"

"Of course not." Junko put her head in her hands and said easily, "Do you think I am such a fool?"

After three years of practicing swinging a sword up and down, you will be able to swing a sword, and you probably won't be able to do the rest.Just like you can't become a sushi god even if you twist a towel for 100 years, the basics are important, but you won't make any progress just by staying at the basics.

"I'm just taking a look at his basic skills first." Junko said, "We won't stay here forever, and we can't take him to practice bit by bit."

If that's the case, she might as well just stay here, there's nothing she can't learn in a few years.

Quick success, although the foundation is a little weaker, but basically everything you should know, just like teaching Sasuke back then, but the foundation is weak, and you have to be opportunistic if you want to use the ultimate attack.

"Then why don't you let him step on the plum blossom pile?" Tomoko suddenly asked with a little interest: "Isn't that better?"

"That..."

Before Junko finished speaking, Izuna suddenly rushed to the two of them as if she had received some order and said, "One hundred strokes are over, what is the plum blossom pile?"

He remembered that Tomoko was very familiar with Junko's swordsmanship, even though he had never seen her use any swordsmanship.But it shouldn’t be bad, right?So stepping on plum blossom piles is also a very important thing, right?This is something I have never heard of before.

'This Izuna...'

Junko's lips twitched.

"Is that okay?" Seeing that Junko didn't speak, Izuna said a little attentively and eagerly: "Master, I have been practicing this sword swing since the first day I learned swordsmanship. The basics are definitely not bad!"

'That's true. Junzixin said: "It really doesn't look too bad." '

Izuna didn't lie. He knew the basics and practiced them often. Junko could see that Izuna's movements were very standard.

"Then you go practice." Junko said nonchalantly: "You can also try the plum blossom pile."

It is indeed possible. Although there are two training systems, some things can be said to be figured out. Practicing the plum blossom pile is also very beneficial to some of Quan Na's basics.

"What is a plum blossom pile?" Seeing Junko not moving, Izuna wanted to ask Tomoko next to her: "How to train?"

"this."

Tomoko clasped his hands together, and a large pile of wooden piles suddenly appeared from the ground.Each wooden pile is about the width of a bowl, and the distance between the wooden piles is about half a step.Tomoko leaped up onto the plum blossom pile and said, "This is the plum blossom pile. There is a special boxing technique that is practiced on the plum blossom pile."

"Of course." Tomoko said: "It doesn't have to be said that the plum blossom pile can only be used to practice plum blossom boxing. Plum blossom pile training can greatly improve your breathing, body shape, flexibility and balance."

"It's also a kind of basic training."

'Base? Quan Nai was a little disappointed when he heard this. He really wanted to learn more advanced and powerful techniques.

It would be great if I could learn Yan Hui intuitively.

"Don't underestimate the plum blossom pile." Tomoko said, "How about you try it yourself? Let's draw on the plum blossom pile?"

Gestures?

Then just make a gesture.

Quan Nai jumped onto the plum blossom pile without hesitation. In his eyes, the plum blossom pile was just that.What could be special about it?But as soon as he put it on the pile, he felt that regardless of whether the bowl mouth was a big bowl or an ordinary small rice bowl, the thick plum blossom pile could only stand on one foot.

Unable to stand at all, Quan Nai had to climb a tree without using hands to help stabilize her body.

"Don't use chakra." At this moment, Junko suddenly said: "If you use chakra, this plum blossom pile will have no training value."

Are you not allowed to use chakra?

Quan Nai couldn't help but frown. She wasn't allowed to use this, and she wasn't allowed to use that. She always felt that everything was restricted and she was so aggrieved.

But after taking a look at Tomoko, who was standing firmly on the pile without any chakra assistance, she felt puzzled but also lost her chakra.Once this chakra was gone, he became a little unsteady and his body swayed back and forth.

"This is one of the reasons why you can't beat Junko." Tomoko said with his hands on his hips: "Did you see that the forehand is weak, the backhand is not precise, the lower body is unstable, the footwork is loose, and the reaction is slow. No one decent can Defeat Junko with pure swordsmanship."

"That's what the hell is going on."

"I understand." Quan Nai was not discouraged by Tomoko's words, nor was she angry.

Having already felt the difficulty, he said sincerely: "I will train well."

"Then I'll teach you how to practice plum blossom pile." Tomoko said.

Up the stakes, stand the stakes, walk the stakes.

Junko looked at the clumsy figure of Izuna being led away by Tomoko but did not say anything to stop her. Although plum blossom stakes are not the basis for training in rock flow swordsmanship.But this is still very helpful for stability training. Although Tomoko said it a bit too much, it was not wrong. Her steps were loose and her lower body was unstable, so she was easily knocked to the ground by Junko.The attack is rough and the defense is weak, purely relying on ninjutsu and weapon advantages.Of course, Izuna is not the only one who has this problem.

This is a common problem among ninjas: they know everything but don't do anything well.Taken together, they are very strong, but when used against an enemy individually, they are very weak.

Except for some ninjas who are specialized in certain specialties, the rest are basically like this.

It wouldn't be wrong to train Izuna here.

As for whether it's training...

Junko felt that Tomoko seemed to be enjoying the pleasure of torturing food, and did not seem to have any real intention to teach.

But forget it~ This is just an auxiliary training anyway.

Junko closed her eyes and planned to take a nap.

"Oh~ Junko, you are here."

Before I fell asleep, I heard Tobirama's voice saying: "I've been looking for you for a long time."

"Are you looking for me?" Junko opened one eye and saw Tobirama looking at her beside her and said, "Are you here to teach the second son of the Uchiha family swordsmanship? Are you free now?"

"What are you going to do?" Junko closed her eyes again. Now this is the Three Treasures Hall without anything to do. Tobirama must have something to do when he comes to see him.

"It's just..." Tobirama scratched his head and said, "About your poison."

"You want it?" Junko opened her eyes again and looked at Tobirama. He was not the first person to want this kind of poison.Junko wouldn't mind giving it to him if he wanted it.

"No, it's not just a desire." Tobirama said, "But..."

“It’s about knowing how to do it.”

To be honest, Tobirama has been very curious about this poison since he learned about its effects. This kind of poison can make people feel ecstasy and there is no specific medicine for it. It really makes Tobirama a little bit unable to stop.

Tobirama has no lower limit when it comes to killing enemies in combat. Any move that can kill enemies is a good move.Therefore, some of Tobirama's moves are not moves that cost a lot of money, but are classified as forbidden techniques because they are too anti-human.

Just like the art of reincarnation from dirty soil, the cost to the caster is not high, but it requires a living sacrifice and the resurrection of the dead.

This is indeed a bit beyond the lower limit of morality. It's a damn thing if it's not classified as a forbidden technique.

Of course, for Tobirama, this move is really useful.So much so that he can even play tricks on you based on the art of reincarnation from dirty soil!

So Tobirama was interested in Junko's poison, and Junko was not surprised at all.

It can even be said that she was surprised when Tobirama showed no interest at all.

Chapter 165 The Charm of Evolution

"Let's go." Junko stood up and said, "It just so happens that I have nothing to do now."

"You leave it to me so easily?" Tobirama was a little surprised. He knew that this poison was very domineering.He felt that even if Junko knew how to teach, it would not be so easy to leave it to him. Either he would have to talk a lot and then someone would teach her, or he would have to promise something before he would teach her.

It's not that simple anyway.

"Of course." Junko seemed not to understand what Tobirama was doing.

"Aren't you afraid that I will develop a stronger one based on your poison, one that is even more indestructible? One with a wider range of damage?" Although Tobirama's bottom line on fighting is very low, he has always made a distinction between public and private matters.Outside of battle, he doesn't think this poison can be given to others so easily.

It's like in the future, although he has a lot of fun playing it, he still lists all those as forbidden skills and doesn't want future generations to learn them.

"You have to be capable, and secondly, you have to be lucky." Junko said completely indifferently: "This thing cannot be developed by just developing it, nor can it be strengthened if you want to."

"If you are unlucky, let alone developing an enhanced version, you may not even be able to keep the current version."

'Is it so difficult? ' Tobirama was confused but didn't ask.

"It's much harder and simpler than this." Junko said, "In short, it depends on luck."

A technique that is very eye-catching.

"I have said before, this is not a chemical poison but a biological virus." Junko said simply: "Let's go to my biological laboratory. Although it is very simple, it can basically be explained clearly."

Tobirama, who had seen through Junko's thoughts, was a little embarrassed and confused. He didn't say much or ask any more questions. He just followed Junko to her biology laboratory with a lot of questions.It is better to say that it is a biological laboratory than a relatively simple small pharmacy with certain biological research functions.

Junko sat in front of the microscope and played with her specimens. After playing with it for a long time, she stepped aside and said, "Okay, come over and take a look."

'look?What to see? Tobirama walked to the microscope a little puzzled. He imitated Junko and used the microscope to look at the sample that looked like nothing.

"What is this?" Tobirama opened his eyes and carefully observed what could be seen under the microscope.There were strange little things swimming around.

"Bacteria." Junko said, "That's the essence of this poison, the 'cholera bacillus' I told you about."

"This?!" Tobirama was even more incredible. He had never thought that this thing was actually alive.In his impression, poisoning should be prepared using a variety of strange rare or common materials in certain proportions.

And now the poison he saw was actually a living little being? !

"No need to doubt anything." Junko said, leaning on the table and crossing her legs: "This is the body of the poison. Poison is not just chemical toxins, which are the common ones that are mixed with various materials in a certain proportion and then appear. of poison."

"There is also a kind of poison called biological virus, which is the kind of poison you see now."

"Biological virus?" Tobirama thought about the name carefully and felt it was quite appropriate.

"Are there any pros and cons?"

"Traditional chemical poisons are stable, easy to prepare, and the raw materials are relatively easy to obtain. Of course, the disadvantage is that they are easier to crack, and they are not colorless, odorless and difficult to detect." Junko said: "Compared to this traditional poison The first characteristic of chemical viruses and biological viruses is that they are colorless and odorless, and there is no immediate cure. If the poisoning lasts for a long time and causes serious damage to body functions, there is basically no cure."

"The disadvantages are of course also numerous. It is difficult to preserve and difficult to obtain, and the method used to trick people is a bit too simple."

"That's it." Junko explained: "This poison can only work in two ways, one is to eat it directly, and the other is to pass through the blood. The rest is ineffective! And if the body surface is not damaged or injured, it is considered to be sticky. This poison can be removed by just washing it. It does not pose any threat to your body at all. It does not matter even if it is accidentally inhaled into the body, because it will not have any effect. This is not a respiratory disease virus, so it is completely no need to worry"

"Secondly, high or low temperatures, and of course alcohol, can destroy this poison."

"All in all, there are a lot of shortcomings." Junko spread his hands and said, "But you have also seen the advantages. As long as it is used properly, the effect will be outstanding!"

The effect was indeed outstanding. Tobirama could not imagine what his brother would look like after being poisoned for several days, and if it weren't for Junko, he would have been almost helpless against the poison.There is no specific medicine. Although the scope of application is very narrow, it is colorless and odorless and does not take effect immediately. Even if it takes effect, it will not be fatal quickly.

From all aspects, this is a weapon for assassination. It allows the poisoner to poison you without anyone noticing, and then evacuate safely.

It can even be said that as long as the person who was poisoned was dumber and less observant, he would hardly suspect that he was poisoned.

"Then what's the luck you're talking about?" Tobirama asked again.

"This has to start with the original strain of the virus." Junko explained: "Cholera bacillus, well...that's what I call it. This original strain can only live in water. It will not be checked. Cara reacts, and without water, it will die quickly and will not enter a state of dehydration and dormancy."

"And how did I get the bacteria I have today?" Junko said, "Evolution."

"This is not to say that the cholera bacillus evolved like this on its own, but that when many, many different bacteria evolve, if they evolve certain characteristics that I need, I will intercept the corresponding DNA and plant it. Into the DNA of the cholera bacillus, a virus is created in this way."

"But evolution is chaotic and disorderly. Evolution does not evolve in a predetermined direction. Evolution is a kind of random mutation. If it can help organisms have a survival advantage in a certain environment, it is evolution. If not, then It’s just a deformity, and even if it has evolved specific characteristics, it may degenerate due to some changes.”

"In general, evolution and degeneration are changes made by organisms themselves to adapt to the environment, and evolution is not a group behavior but an individual behavior. This is a question of probability or face."

"If you put 1 bacteria in a certain environment, the result you get may not necessarily be that they have evolved the characteristics you want, but they may also have evolved characteristics you don't want."

"Or maybe they're all dead. In short, it's not something you can improve if you want to."
