A breeze blew across the sea. On an unfinished bridge extending from the coast, busy people were working. Although it was noisy, people had happy smiles on their faces. The threat was removed. This
The bridge was built for their country again, and the faces of the people of the Country of Waves were filled with joy that was rarely seen in the past.
Dazna, who was standing in the crowd, was drawing and directing the work of the people around him, looking very impressive. Now there was no need for him to build the bridge himself.
At this time, if any ordinary person looked at the sea below the bridge, they would be shocked, because Asuma and Shikamaru were standing on the sea at this time, as if they were stepping on land instead of sea water.
.
The task taken over by the 10th Squadron was to protect Dazna until the construction of the bridge was completed. Although Kado had been killed, as a precaution - or to adhere to his duty - Dazna was at the construction site on the bridge.
, Team 10 will still take turns sending people to follow him - in fact, Shikamaru is mainly responsible, because Ino and Choji are still practicing climbing trees carefully.
Although you can also practice by climbing the bridge at the bridge, compared with stones, trees are more fragile and require higher chakra release. Moreover, Choji and Ino are also very envious of Shikamaru when he climbs trees.
He was very light-hearted, so he often stayed in the woods to practice. In contrast, Shikamaru's practice was not limited to location. The task of protecting Tatsuna was naturally taken care of by him.
"No!" Asuma straightened up and frowned as he looked at Shikamaru, who was holding a kunai upside down with both hands, holding his chest and lifting his back, performing the same taijutsu stance as Asuma.
"What's wrong, Asuma-sensei?" When Shikamaru heard this, he couldn't help but frown, stood up straight, and asked with a confused look on his face: "Is there anything wrong with my movements?" Although he was confident in his own talent.
, but he is not so arrogant that he thinks that his ability to understand taijutsu has surpassed that of a jounin who has experienced hundreds of battles.
"No," Asuma heard Shikamaru's question, shook his head and explained, "It's a weapon problem."
The advantage of kunai is that it is easy to carry and can be used as a flying prop. Before the emergence of chakra, it can also be used as a climbing tool. Its use method is also more inclined to a hidden weapon, which is not conducive to frontal combat. Therefore, the role of kunai
, in fact, for today's ninjas, it has begun to gradually decrease. Except for ninjas who have unique fighting styles and basically do not need to use ninja tools to deal with the enemy, no ninjas will choose it as their main weapon.
Take the cutting attack of a knife as an example. Even if it is blocked, the kunai does not even have a hand guard. Unlike knives such as tachi or katana, which have sword tangs, if the opponent counterattacks, the kunai can only dodge.
Throwing tools can be replaced by shurikens, and their uses such as climbing are not a problem for genin. Ninjas who are good at physical skills or whose fighting style tends to be close combat will often choose a set of main weapons.
Used in frontal combat.
"Wait a minute." After Asuma thought for a while, he took out the "Feiyan" from his ninja bag, put it on his hand, and said to Shikamaru: "Use a kunai on me to simulate the chopping action of the knife.
.”
Shikamaru nodded when he heard this, and grabbed the handle of the kunai awkwardly with both hands. He spread his legs slightly forward and back, raised the kunai, stepped forward, and struck Asuma hard.
"Pa!" Asuma raised his right hand, and the row of jagged grooves on the fist surface of "Feiyan" just caught Shikamaru's kunai, and then Asuma saw Shikamaru's kunai being moved.
He was led astray, his center of gravity shifted, and his body exposed many flaws. If it were a real fight, and Shikamaru was using a knife that was much longer than the kunai, this move would be fatal enough.
"Come again!" Asuma did not continue to attack. After Shikamaru stood still, he spoke again.
Shikamaru frowned, he was a little absent-minded just now. Although it was for practice, Asma neutralized the attack so easily, leaving him wide open, which also made him a little unwilling. After listening to Asma's words,
I couldn't help but cheer up.
Shikamaru took a deep breath, suddenly took a step forward, raised the kunai high, and struck down hard, but in the process, he suddenly turned his body halfway, reversed his right arm, bent his forearm, and held the kunai upside down.
"Spin? Curved-arm backhand sword?" Asuma saw Shikamaru suddenly change his moves, and couldn't help but smile softly: "You're really strong!"
Although Shikamaru is still doing a downward slash, he is standing sideways and holding a kunai behind his back. Even if the enemy blocks him after the downward slash, he can quickly withdraw the kunai and stab the enemy with the kunai again. This is one of the best skills in swordsmanship.
One of the techniques, Shikamaru now used it on the more flexible and underestimated kunai, and his speed must have increased to a higher level. It would not be so easy for Asuma to use the previous move to deflect his attack.
Asuma took a step forward, still using the jagged grooves on the "Feiyan" to resist Shikamaru's kunai, but at the moment of contact, the "Feiyan" was suddenly covered by a light blue light.
The light blue light above "Feiyan" flashed away, and as a crisp click sound came out, a small opening was opened where the kunai in Shikamaru's hand came into contact with "Feiyan", and there were already
It is full of cracks, and although it has not been broken, it is obviously no longer usable for fighting.
"This is... wind attribute chakra?" Shikamaru took back the kunai with a surprised look on his face and carefully observed the cracks on it. He originally didn't pay too much attention to the small serrations on Asuma's "Feiyan"
Yeah, I didn't expect it to have such a use. Extremely sharp wind attribute chakra is emitted from both sides of the saw teeth, which can cut off the blade stuck in the groove in an instant. The kunai Shikamaru just used was replaceable. If it really
The most common weapons are unreplaceable weapons such as tachi or ninja swords. In this unexpected move, the enemy's main weapon will be quickly disabled, and Asuma can use this to gain some advantages in the battle.
"Your chakra is not of the wind attribute, so you can't use this move." Asuma shook his head regretfully. His physical skills combined with the wind attribute chakra blade were very lethal and destructive, so he couldn't use it.
He was afraid of a head-on attack, but Shikamaru couldn't.
Asuma took "Feiyan" out of his fingers, handed it to Shikamaru, and said: "Ninjas who are good at close combat will basically choose or make their own main weapon according to their own style and expertise. You should too.
Make one, and kunai is no longer applicable to you."
"These serrations can protect your fingers. When combined with my wind chakra, it can also destroy the contact parts after jamming the weapon." Asuma lowered his head and pointed at "Feiyan" and explained to Shikamaru one by one: "This chakra
Metal can cooperate with my wind attribute chakra to form an extremely sharp chakra blade. Whether it is melee combat or throwing, it can greatly increase the lethality... If you want to choose a weapon, you must also be able to choose one that suits you.
It’s a fighting style, so it can exert more power.”
Shikamaru observed the "flying swallow". Just as Asuma said, this "flying swallow" is consistent with Asma's ability in terms of material and style, and can exert greater power.dd
