After actually passing the test performed by the Jonin himself and becoming a genin, his father Nara Shikaku and mother Nara Yoshino were truly gratified, especially after Shikaku found out that Shikamaru had received the highest rating of A-level in the genin test.
I couldn't hold back the smile on my face.
The day after Shikamaru was confirmed as a genin, after dinner, Shikamaru was called into the study by Nara Shikaku.
After Nara Shikaku saw Shikamaru sitting down, he thought for a while and said: "From now on, you are already a real ninja, the highest evaluation of A-level. This is what Asuma Sarutobi said when reporting to the Hokage.
, evaluation of you.”
Shikamaru raised his eyebrows as he listened. He didn't know this at all, but it became clear to Nara Shikaku's serious conversation at this time.
Nara Shikaku looked at his child with a complicated expression. He had always felt that Shikamaru's personality was completely opposite to many extents. He was calm, rational, mature, and hungry for knowledge. In complete contrast to his laziness, he was often very energetic.
He also has a way of doing things that is inconsistent with his age, as well as a deep-hidden ambition.
Although it seems that Shikamaru already knows what this evaluation means, Nara Shikaku, as a father, still advises Shikamaru in a solemn tone: "The evaluation you get in the genin test will give you the reputation in the village."
Attention, but you don’t have to have any illusions. The village will greatly favor you in terms of resources. On the contrary, the village senior management may arrange more and more advanced tasks for you to help you grow. As for the danger,
Although it won't put you in danger, it won't be easy. I hope you understand these points better. Excellent people will naturally bear more responsibilities."
Shikamaru nodded seriously. Nara Shikaku's words, for Shikamaru with an adult soul, it comes naturally. The so-called throwing genius into dangerous situations, euphemistically called "stimulating potential", is simply
Unless it is for enmity, no Konoha high-level person would do this in peacetime. The more reliable method is to do it step by step. Of course, this does not mean that a safe haven must be provided forever. Crisis and danger will naturally occur.
Yes, but it must be with sufficient preparation and care. In other words, in the past life, would any country throw the newly established military service into a real battlefield without any arrangements in order to "test" its capabilities?
Only NC would take this for granted.
Even genin are ninjas. For a military organization that measures individual personnel, every death means one is lost. No ninja village has the luxury to use a large number of ninjas as cannon fodder without hesitation and distress.
Shikamaru understood Nara Shikaku's words so easily without asking any questions. This made Nara Shikaku, who was a bit awkward with his family, not sure how to respond, and the atmosphere in the room was a bit dull.
After all, Shikamaru has an adult soul with his own values and concepts of life. Although Nara Shikaku and Nara Yoshino are the parents of this body, their care and concern for him are also sincere. This makes Shikamaru feel deeply attached to them.
I respect and love them from the bottom of my heart, but it is really impossible for an adult to truly treat the two of them as parents without any grudges, and to take themselves into the status of a boy as a matter of course.
"Ah!" After a moment of silence, Nara Shikaku felt a little embarrassed. His character was very similar to many old-school men in Shikamaru's previous life. He was not good at words and cared about his family but didn't know how to act. At this time, he had no choice but to find something to say: "I
I discussed with your mother that I want to give you a gift to celebrate your becoming a ninja. Your mother wants to prepare in advance and give you a surprise, but I think it is more appropriate to give you something that you can use in the future.
"
Nara Shikaku paused and looked seriously at the pensive Shikamaru. He seemed to have returned to the state where two men, one large and one small, were in this room, asking questions and answering questions. He said in a sophisticated tone: "
A ninja, during a long period of fighting and training, should constantly understand himself, discover his own shortcomings and shortcomings, and then make up for them. However, you cannot let outsiders discover these shortcomings first, because you don't know whether they are friends or not.
Enemy! After so many years, I have seen your efforts. You must have a certain understanding of yourself. So at this moment, as a father and a senior in the ninja career, I want to ask you -
—What is it that you lack now?"
This is an assessment, and it can also be seen as a father's worry for his child. After all, Shikamaru has been given the aura of "number one" at this time. Even if he is mature, in the eyes of others, he is still a teenager, and it is easy to play his own role.
Pride and complacency.
Regarding Nara Shikaku's question, Shikamaru naturally understood that this was a father's painstaking effort, so he lowered his head and thought about it seriously and carefully. There is no need to ask for Ninjutsu learning. Nara Shikaku will naturally teach him in the future.
, I haven’t learned yet, naturally because Shikamaru is not capable enough to learn. As for other things, in reality, Nara Shikaku’s current status and qualifications are still not enough. To be honest, there is nothing too great among the clan or the village.
Huge resources are available. After all, Tsunade is not in power at this time, and Nara Shikaku and the Nara clan have not yet risen, so after thinking for a moment, he could only say with a wry smile, "You seem to be unable to give me what I want most right now!"
"
Naturally, Nara Shikaku would not show any excess or dissatisfaction. He just looked deeply into Shikamaru's eyes, sighed, and asked: "What do you want?" Although in many cases due to his incompetence,
The expression showed that he didn't care much about Shikamaru's life and study, but after all, he was his own child. In any case, as a father, he did not hope that he would refuse his child's request.
"Chakra Blade." Shikamaru answered briefly.
After Nara Shikaku heard Shikamaru's words, he was slightly stunned, and then said with a wry smile: "I really don't have this, don't you want anything else?"
Chakra metal is very rare, and because of its special ability, its value in this world is as precious as the mithril in the fantasy world of Western legends in Shikamaru's previous life, or even more. He has not yet served as a clan leader or jounin.
The squad leader, Nara Shikaku, currently does not have the resources to obtain such a valuable item.
Shikamaru thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said, "Besides this, there is nothing particularly needed at the moment. I will postpone this gift until I need it later."
At present, Shikamaru's body has begun to develop rapidly, both in terms of chakra and ninjutsu. He has also begun to train in taijutsu, and has also added a little weight, but not a lot, and it is not enough.
Shikamaru naturally understands the truth. The weight-bearing is not a whole piece of iron, but bags of iron sand. If you are not careful when walking or running, it will make noise. This can exercise your coordination and control ability of the body. When you are young,
The accumulation of knowledge finally turns into real power after the body grows up. Just like if you want to reach a certain place, one person can only find the way while walking, while the other person draws a map and rushes directly to the destination.
The effects cannot be equal. If there is anything that is needed, it is strength.
Relying on years of research, Shikamaru already has some clues about some "techniques". Unfortunately, the current growth is due to the existence of "maps", but now he wants to "draw a good map", but there is no one to copy.
, he can only rely on his own exploration. Shikamaru's current strength is not enough to perfect these "techniques" through experiments.
Whether it is feasible or not, and whether the research direction is wrong or not, needs to be proven later. He has never thought of reporting the research on "jutsu" to the Nara clan and then using their strength to study it, not to mention whether they can be the best in their previous lives.
Shikamaru, a scholar, is so strong that he would not consider such behavior just because of his instinct to protect himself. These "skills" will be his trump card in the future, and they will be the basis for him to dominate the battlefield and become famous. If anyone in the clan follows him in the future,
He competed for the position of clan leader and secretly revealed these "skills" to his enemies. Who should Shikamaru blame for being framed? He could only blame himself for being naive.
It doesn't matter if he can't experiment now. He will always grow up in the future. Taking the initiative to expose his trump card for benefits that cannot be harvested now is too stupid and is not something that a wise man would do. Moreover, he has recently started to "research" a patient.
The technique is progressing very quickly.
If there is any ninjutsu that is described in the most detailed and comprehensive manner in the original work, it is undoubtedly the Rasengan among the two signature ninjutsus of the protagonist Naruto. When Naruto was learning, it took several episodes to describe it in detail.
He explained the learning method. This kind of A-level ninjutsu, which does not require strict requirements for chakra properties or seals, and deeply borrows the essence of doctrine, how can Shikamaru not shamelessly plagiarize? Anyway, he knows this ninjutsu.
There are only a few people in the world, and Shikamaru has never come into contact with any of them, but he "invented" this ninjutsu by being able to use it. Although it is a bit shameless, between "Great Light" and "Survive"
However, Shikamaru still chose the latter.
The Rasengan, which can be fired instantly without seals, is actually more useful than Raikiri to a certain extent. If Kakashi, who invented Raikiri, had not had the Sharingan, Raikiri would have taken advantage of the changes in chakra properties.
The radar has an obvious target and extremely poor concealment, and its practicality is pitifully poor.
After Naruto learned this ninja from Jiraiya in the future, the first thing that the Konoha ninjas who saw him using it would only think of were the inventors, who used to be the Fourth Generation, and now they are the Fourth Generation and Nara Shikamaru.
