Chapter 337: Seven Days of Calling for Dharma
The next morning, the sky was just getting light.
When Ino was brushing her teeth, she found that Shikamaru had already gotten up early to exercise.
This is really a rare thing.
There is a word "food" on Shikamaru's clothes, not a word "roll". Usually only Ino would do this kind of exercise at dawn.
Did Fatty take the wrong medicine today?
Ino watched from a distance while brushing her teeth.
I saw Shikamaru running back and forth while holding a huge rock that was bigger than his body. His breathing rhythm was quite strange. Whenever he felt tired, he would use a special breathing rhythm to drive his body to continue running. The fat all over his body would shake twice with his strange breathing method, and new chakra would burst out from the fat, and he would soon recover most of his strength.
Ino only took a glance and discovered the power of this breathing method.
Although she has not formally opened her eyes, with the help of relatively vague observation ability and her own perception ability, she can roughly grasp the flow and intensity of chakra in Shikamaru's body.
The secret technique of the Akimichi family originally stored a lot of yang-attribute chakra in the fat, but that was consumable in nature and needed to be accumulated again after use. Now, with the help of a strange breathing method, it seems that Shikamaru can extract chakra from fat without consuming much fat.
That's amazing.
Ino spat out the mouthwash in her mouth and looked at it carefully.
Soon, Shikamaru also joined the crowd, and the two looked at each other, seeing the confusion in each other's eyes. This did not look like the secret technique of the Akimichi family.
The breathing method of three long and one short, or three short and one long is not a secret in the ninja world. Many families have done research on it, but none of them take it seriously.
Let’s not talk about the Six Paths level or Kage level, and simply talk about the Genin who has the largest number on the battlefield.
In fact, the battle between Genins only requires a few strikes. They burst out with all their strength and stab the kunai into the enemy's heart, and that's the end of it.
At a critical moment of life and death, there is no time to think about breathing rhythm, cardiopulmonary function, etc. Just use as much strength as you can! Kill the enemy, and no one will care how you breathe in and out. On the contrary, if the enemy is alive and you are dead, then you don't need to think about breathing.
Learn how to unleash all your strength in battle, ignore your breathing, ignore all the signals your body sends, only focus on your enemies, and fight like a cold machine. This is the mainstream ninja training method!
Now, in the eyes of Ino and Shikamaru, Choji's training method is a bit non-mainstream, as if we in the Huashan Sect all practice swordsmanship, but you insist on practicing internal skills.
"Shall I go talk to him?" Shikamaru asked in a low voice.
His talent and vision in physical skills are average, and as a senior ninja, Ino definitely has more say in this area.
Ino hesitated for a moment: "It's possible that Choji doesn't know these things. He's training like this now, so he must have his own ideas. Let's wait and see."
The two men didn't say anything, quickly packed up their things, and continued to cross the desert.
They camped that night and still used Wood Release to build a house. After that, the three of them ate and rested.
Choji secretly leaves the camp in the middle of the night to continue learning breathing techniques from Shira, who follows them from a distance.
This is a set of physical training methods called "Seven Days Calling Method", which was developed by Zi Luo himself.
Choji told Shira about the current mainstream view in the ninja world, which made Shira, who had been working in isolation, break out in a cold sweat. Only then did he realize that he had gone astray.
But this can't be blamed on him, there was no one to guide him at all, he could only practice according to his own ideas.
His seven-day calling method is actually of a very high level and has a grand scale.
But even he, the founder, could not achieve the effect of "seven days", that is, breathing seven times continuously and vibrating the chakra meridians seven times continuously. He always thought that it was because he did not train his body enough. After meeting Choji and getting a lot of knowledge that is considered basic in today's ninja world, he realized that he had taken a detour.
Choji helped him catch up on the basics, and he taught Choji his breathing techniques.
One taught while the other learned. When Choji went to practice in a distance, Ino appeared behind Shira like a ghost.
Zi Luo looked a little confused, not knowing how she appeared. A living person suddenly appeared behind him. This was incredible for him who had almost reached the pinnacle of body training. However, he did not think much about it. He really did not know any ninjutsu or illusion techniques. Maybe this was the effect of some ninjutsu.
Ino didn't explain either. She left the Flying Thunder God spell on Choji's backpack during the day and teleported over at night.
"Are you the genius ninja from Konoha Village that the fat guy mentioned? That's really amazing." Zi Luo exclaimed sincerely.
The two sides haven't fought, so it's hard to say who will win or lose, but some external manifestations can be seen. Shiro thinks that his physical skills are unmatched in the world, but Ino's physical skills are not much weaker than his. With the combination of ninjutsu and illusion, if a real fight breaks out, Shiro will definitely kneel.
Ino looked at him and asked word by word: "Excuse me, what is your purpose in following us?"
"I'm going to say I met you guys by chance, would you believe me?"
"I don't believe it."
"I did meet you by chance, believe it or not, that's the truth."
Ino looked carefully at the young man in front of her. He was probably in his early twenties, five or six years older than Ino and the others, and five or six years younger than Kakashi, Asuma and the others. He stood there like an unsheathed sword, with a unique breathing rhythm and a long breath. If you didn't listen carefully, you could hardly hear his breathing.
This is a master who has practiced body training to the core. He is one of those fierce men who is called a ninja but is actually a berserker.
It is unwise to think about the rhythm of your breathing during combat, but it is another matter if you can make it an instinct.
Without a certain level of innate willpower, it is difficult for normal people to change their breathing rhythm. They can adjust their breathing rhythm while meditating or running, but the consequence of being distracted at a life-and-death moment is death, and the price is too high. Therefore, all major ninja villages oppose practicing breathing techniques. It's not that this thing is bad, but that it is too difficult to practice and the result is half the effort with twice the results.
"It seems that you are not a ninja from the Sand Village? Are you interested in going to Konoha Village? In Konoha, even if you don't know any ninjutsu or genjutsu, you can still become an excellent ninja. After becoming a Konoha ninja, a lot of knowledge will be open to you. Standing on the shoulders of your predecessors, with the help of their knowledge and experience, you can improve your breathing method little by little. How about it? Are you interested?"
Ino invited.
Zi Luo shook her head, her expression not changing at all.
Shikamaru had said the same thing once before. He refused last night, and his choice now is still to refuse.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm sorry. The Sand Village does not recognize me, but I was born and raised here. The yellow sand is my home. Although your mountains and rivers are beautiful, they have nothing to do with me."
