The way to defeat Gaara ultimately comes down to finding a way to break through his defenses.
This is true whether it is Gaara's Sand Shield or Sand Armor, or awakening him from his Shukaku state.
Shikamaru would not be naive enough to think that as long as he had the Rasengan, he would be able to defeat Gaara easily. The Rasengan was one of his trump cards, but now it seems that this trump card alone is not enough.
, especially after he saw the thrilling match between Gaara and Rock Lee with his own eyes, he had a clear understanding of Gaara's strength - the power of the jinchūriki was originally born for war, and it is capable of enduring
Gaara's status in the world is like Shikamaru's nuclear weapons in his previous life, and Gaara's potential and strength can be seen from this.
When Rock Lee was using the Eight Gate Dungeon, he was able to defeat Gaara without even breaking through Gaara's defense with Ura Renka. Gaara's terrifying defense really impressed Shikamaru.
Compared with Chidori, although the Rasengan consumes less chakra because it lacks the steps to change chakra properties, in terms of the amount of chakra Shikamaru has, it can only be used five times in a row——
This is his limit when he does not use other ninjutsu such as shadow imitation techniques. In a normal battle, Shikamaru can only use the Rasengan about three times, otherwise he will use chakra excessively.
His life was in danger. After all, Shikamaru's body was not like Naruto's, with a nine-tailed demon fox that could replenish chakra at any time. The energy in his cells was being squeezed wildly, and he had no choice but to die, which would cause serious damage to his body.
The Rasengan's penetrating ability is actually not as good as the Chidori. Like in the original work, Uchiha Sasuke uses the Chidori to continuously break through the Sand Shield and Sand Armor and seriously injure Gaara. I'm afraid it's unlikely, so he has to break through Gaara in one fell swoop.
With Luo's absolute defense, Shikamaru must ensure that the Rasengan exerts its absolute power. At least he must avoid the sand shield and hit Gaara's vitals with the Rasengan, so as to severely damage him.
A quick victory was what Shikamaru had to do. After all, his physical strength and energy could not compete with Gaara, who was Shukaku's Jinchūriki. What's more, the opponent had to completely wrap himself with a shield of sand to transform into a Shukaku jinchūriki.
With Tsuru's rogue tricks, Shikamaru could do nothing even if he had the Rasengan.
In fact, the best tactic is that Shikamaru can have high-speed movement comparable to Rock Lee, and has absolute speed. With the advantage, the Rasengan's hit rate can be guaranteed, and the Sand Shield is unable to stop it.
It's a pity that Shikamaru is not Rock Lee. He can value taijutsu, but he can't regard taijutsu as his whole life and devote all his energy. Although his cultivation is much better than other genin, in terms of speed, he is still not the best.
Rock Lee's opponent.
As for counting on the month before the official selection begins—this seemingly long period of time is actually extremely short for practice—to train one’s physical skills to reach the level of Rock Lee….
Although Shikamaru would never deliberately look down on himself, he still had no hope.
In the original work, the reason why Uchiha Sasuke can do this is because he possesses the Sharingan, and during his previous fight with Rock Lee, he copied the opponent's movements and speed, which made his
The body imitates Rock Lee's speed, which may be a painful torture at first due to lack of physical fitness, but it allows Uchiha Sasuke's body to constantly recollect and adapt to this speed during training, speeding up his practice.
The progress, and more importantly - his surname is Uchiha...
Shikamaru couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this, his dark eyes seemed unfathomable, with a hint of a different emotion.
To put it bluntly, Shikamaru has proven his ability by passing this exam. After meeting the elite genin of each ninja village, he has the ability to believe that he is not only in Konoha Village, but also in the entire ninja world.
, he is also one of the top ninjas at the same level, and few others can match him.
It's a pity that his competitor is not a queen from a famous family, but a veritable monster.
Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto and even Hinata Neji are following closely behind. Shikamaru can be sure that if he didn't have the same enterprising spirit that is different from the original Shikamaru, as long as he slacks off a little, with the amazing talents of these three people
, and Nara Shikamaru's own ordinary physical fitness, although it cannot be said that he will be lost to everyone, but if he wants to have his own place in this colorful world and the great changes that will follow, he will even play a major role.
role, but it is definitely impossible.
Shikamaru must continue to work hard and work hard, learn and learn again. This is the only thing that a ninja with ordinary qualifications can do, and it is also the desperate struggle of a person who has no father to fight for.
Shikamaru will not complain, nor is he qualified to complain about Nara Shikaku's absence. He has been the Hokage since he was born, and even the leader of the Nara clan. Being able to be reborn once is a gift from God. If he expects too much, he seems to be dissatisfied. The rest of him
Decided to catch them one by one on my own.
Although blood is rampant in this world and it is common sense to fight for one's father, it is not that ordinary people without qualifications can break this common sense and stand at the top of the pyramid of the entire ninja world.
They went on and on because they were unwilling to be limited by fate. There may be many losers lying on the side of the road, no one cares about them, but like Sarutobi Hiruzen, Namikaze Minato, and also like Jiraiya and Orochimaru, they always
There are still people alive and famous in the ninja world.
"They can do it, why can't I!?" Shikamaru's slightly pale face had dark eyes. Ino, who was beside him, looked back inadvertently, only to find that there seemed to be a ball of flame in it.
combustion.
There is a deep and firm temperament emerging from Shikamaru, who still has a childish look on his face. This feeling is invisible and intangible, but it still makes Choji and Ino, who have been together for a long time and are very familiar with Shikamaru, aware of it.
The traveler groping in the dark finds the light, just like the lone wolf wandering the grassland finds its prey, so determined and persistent.
The so-called Tao of Tolerance is not just a simple term. The goal of life and the path of life lie in it. This world is like the culture of a certain island country in the previous life. It likes to describe many skills as "Tao". This meaning is to inform oneself.
Even for practitioners, this is a pursuit worthy of a lifetime.
The exploration of Ninjado is not a matter of being hot-headed and just patting your head and coming up with ideas. Instead, as the Ninja grows up and experiences more, he eliminates doubts bit by bit, breaks through the layers of veils, and makes his mind more transparent.
The process of pure will.
"Always trying to resolve the hesitation and hesitation in your heart, and deepen your understanding through everything around you... This is the way of ninja!" Shikamaru's eyes gradually brightened, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he finally emerged from his thoughtful expression.
When he came back to his senses, he had a confident smile on his face, but his heart was filled with ups and downs: "My road has begun to be paved, how can Gaara stop me!?"
