Asuma looked at Shikamaru, and after pondering for a moment, his slightly hesitant face finally became firm, as if he had made some determination.
"Shikamaru," Asuma said slowly, "Momochi Zabuza's decapitating sword, when you return to Konoha, you will take it home!"
"This..." Hearing this, Shikamaru looked up at Asuma in surprise, frowning, and said with some hesitation, "Is that okay?" The decapitating sword was considered the trophy of this mission, although Ino and Din
Tsuji didn't play any big role in the battle with Zabuza, but Team 10 as a whole can't decide who owns the beheading sword based on this. What's more, the one who contributed the most was Asuma, not Shika.
Shikamaru was not worried about the scarcity but the inequality. They were both genin. If only Shikamaru was given the decapitating sword, there would be no guarantee that Ino and Choji would not feel strange in their hearts.
"I know what you are taking into consideration." Asuma patted Shikamaru on the shoulder and smiled slightly: "I will explain it to Choji and Ino. They are your good friends and will understand."
If Asuma, who is the mentoring Jonin, comes forward to help explain, it should be able to eliminate the bad feelings between the two. After all, even Asuma, who contributed the most, gave up on his own initiative. If there is still dissatisfaction and jealousy, it can only be said to be friendship.
Not here anymore.
"The beheading sword, as one of the seven famous swords of Kirigakure Village in the Land of Water, also has a lot of weight in the hearts of Kirigakure ninjas." Asuma took out a cigarette from his ninja bag, lit it, and took a deep breath.
He said to Shikamaru: "It is of great significance that this sword fell into the hands of Konoha Ninja. Whether it is to spread the reputation of Konoha Ninja Village or to return it to Kirigakure Ninja Village as a sign of friendship, it can play a role."
"You can't keep this sword, you must hand it over." Asuma paid attention to Shikamaru's expression, and saw that he had no strange emotions on his face after hearing this, and still maintained a calm attitude, and he couldn't help but nod secretly in his heart.
, said: "But the village will definitely compensate you. The secret technique you used with 'Feiyan' in the battle with Zabuza can only be performed by relying on chakra metal that can store chakra. This thing
It's very rare, and when the time comes, you can ask the higher-ups for a piece of chakra metal to use in making weapons."
Shikamaru's heart skipped a beat. This was the benefit of having a master to guide him. Especially when Asuma was still Shikamaru's superior, he not only gave guidance on practice, but also tried his best to take care of and teach many things. Compared with
Next, although Nara Shikaku is also a jounin, he is not Shikamaru's superior after all. He can help in daily practice, but it is difficult to take care of him at work.
"Before the mission ends, you should think about your strengths and fighting style." Asuma looked at Shikamaru and said, "However, it takes a lot of combat experience to recognize your own fighting style.
, if you have anything unclear, just come and talk to me."
Shikamaru heard this and nodded seriously.
In the next few days, apart from daily practice, Shikamaru spent the rest of his time thinking quietly, summarizing the ninjutsu and taijutsu he currently mastered, or imagining an imaginary enemy in his mind and making gestures alone.
Ichiban.
A week later, Shikamaru asked Dazuna to help him find a batting board used for playing cricket. He planned to use this long and wide board as a template and make adjustments while thinking and summarizing.
"In a head-on battle, although I have a powerful Rasengan that few ninjutsu can compete with, the number is limited after all, and the most important thing is that I don't have a Sharingan. Unless I have an absolute speed advantage, the enemy can naturally dodge.
." Shikamaru was sitting cross-legged in a forest. He was looking down at the batting board on his lap with a thoughtful look on his face: "For medium distance, I have a secret technique that I can use, so
This weapon mainly focuses on close-range physical combat and long-range attacks."
"Although the Nara clan's secret technique is suitable for medium distances, when used head-on, the execution speed is too slow and the movements are obvious. As long as they are not inexperienced and a little more vigilant, people can take precautions." Shikamaru thought of this,
He suddenly stood up, grabbed the batting board, and jumped around in the forest, and finally hid in a bush of grass: "It must be used unexpectedly, so that the secret technique can be easily used successfully - stealth skills are very important!"
Shikamaru stood up from the grass, picked up the batting board and looked at it carefully, then murmured to himself: "It's too big to carry!"
…………
"For long-distance attacks, currently only the 'Shadow Imitation Shuriken' requires the use of weapons." Still in this woods, Shikamaru was sitting under a tree. The batting board had been modified beyond recognition by him.
Cut into half a meter in length, the shape is like an enlarged kunai: "This ninjutsu needs to be thrown together, and the weapon must be able to be used as a flying prop."
The ring Shikamaru at the end of the kunai is retained. Steel wire can be wrapped around it and it can be retrieved after throwing. In the future, after learning the shadow seam, the shadow seam can also be used to throw it twice.
In fact, the shape of kunai is not conducive to close combat, but this will need to be gradually summarized and improved after Shikamaru and Asuma fight each other for a period of time.
What can be confirmed at present is that this weapon must not only be suitable for throwing, but also easy to carry, so as to facilitate concealment. The only thing missing is the use of physical skills in close combat.
The next day, Shikamaru found Asuma and confessed that he wanted to practice with him in order to understand his request. Asuma readily agreed and brought various wooden ninja tools that Shikamaru had prepared.
Arriving at the grove near Dazna's house.
"Are you ready?" Asuma picked up a wooden sword and said to Shikamaru. When he nodded in response, he suddenly stepped forward and struck forward.
The purpose of the exchange between the two was to constantly hone in on Shikamaru's fighting style and gain experience. Therefore, Asuma controlled his own power. Otherwise, if he used his full strength, Shikamaru would have no room to fight back.
"Snapped!"
Shikamaru held the wooden kunai upside down, close to his forearm, playing a protective role. He raised the kunai to block Asuma's attack. Then he raised his arm and swung down, trying to deflect Asuma's wooden sword in the opposite direction. Unexpectedly, Asuma's wooden sword was deflected.
Ma took advantage of the situation and pushed upwards, cutting Shikamaru's fingers. As a last resort, Shikamaru had to take a step back and gave up.
"You still need a sword, but the length can be the same as the forearm." Shikamaru secretly remembered this, crossed his forearm, made a starting position, and took the initiative to attack Asuma.dd
