Chapter 20 Copying homework, I, Minato, would like to call you the strongest
Chapter 20 When it comes to copying homework, I, Minato, would like to call you the strongest
Hearing the sound inside, Tatsuma pushed the door open and found that Minato had already put on his shoes and his ninja tool bag was hung on his waist. Minato looked at Tatsuma and said, "You are a little late today."
Seeing Minato getting ready to go out for exercise, Tatsuma waved his hand and said, "I won't go to the training ground this afternoon. Jiraiya gave me the two ninjutsu scrolls. Let's copy one copy first."
"Really?"
Minato showed a happy smile, while Tatsuma took out the two scrolls and headed towards the training room. Minato also entered the training room and found two pens and two blank scrolls.
Minato also kept his home very clean, but he had a lot more things in his home than Tatsuma, especially the training room. Compared to Tatsuma's slightly empty bookshelf, Minato had a lot of books on it.
There are everything from textbooks to literary works, and almost all the ninja legends of various famous ninjas. This kind of ordinary book usually only costs one hundred taels to one hundred and fifty taels per volume, which is not expensive, so Minato bought it.
Affordable.
Chenma can also afford it, but he won't buy it. With his talent, there is no way to distract him. He likes to save the little money left every month. The feeling of having savings will make him feel better.
Practical.
Minato pulled a chair from the dining room and prepared a drink and some biscuits and snacks for Tatsuma. Then he and Tatsuma sat face to face on the desk. Tatsuma handed Minato Atsujizo's scroll and said at the same time:
"Minato, you are so enthusiastic. You just copied a scroll, but you prepared so many things to entertain me. I also prepared a little sense of ceremony."
After taking the scroll, Minato smiled and said, "Let's see who can copy faster?"
"As expected of you, you understand me so well."
Tatsuma also smiled, and the two of them spread out the scroll at the same time. In addition to the introduction of ninjutsu and seals, there were many personal experiences written in small characters on the scroll.
It is so detailed that the meaning of each seal is written clearly, such as the needle Jizo in Minato's hand, and why the last seal is the seal of the snake, Jiraiya also explained it.
Part of the effect of Acupuncture Jizo is to pierce hair into the ground and then pull it out. To achieve this, Jiraiya referenced many principles of Earth Release Ninjutsu.
Many earth escape ninjutsu end with the Seal of the Snake, because this seal can make it easier for chakra to communicate with the earth, just like the Seal of the Tiger, it is easier for the caster to reconcile the fire escape chakra generated in the body.
.
The same is true for the Random Lion Hair Technique in Tatsuma's hand. Not only does it explain each seal, but it also records Jiraiya's understanding of the application of this technique and the tactics used in conjunction with other techniques.
Jiraiya even painted a lot of abstract little people. Although the painting skills are very average, it can be seen that Jiraiya is very serious about explaining all the key points of these two ninjutsu.
Seeing these meticulous notes, Tatsuma finally understood why Jiraiya spent three days and only completed one scroll record. In terms of teaching, Jiraiya was not sloppy at all.
Minato took a cursory glance and then looked at the scroll in Tatsuma's hand. Obviously, the scroll in Tatsuma's hand recorded more content, which seemed to be a disadvantage for the match.
Thinking of Tatsuma's strange but extremely strong desire to win, Minato took the initiative and said: "Tatsuma, how about we copy it instead?"
"No! I will prove to you that I am the best ninja at copying!"
Tatsuma decisively refused, betting on the dignity of hand speed and endurance that he had developed during the twelve years of copying homework in his previous life before going to college. He would definitely win this game!
Tatsuma began to move his fingers, wrists and elbows, while Minato filled the inkstone with ink. After the two of them took a sip of their drinks, they tacitly picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, compared the scroll, and copied on the blank scroll.
Got up.
At first, Minato could maintain the same speed as Tatsuma, but as time went on, Minato began to feel unbearable. His elbows and forearms began to ache from hanging on for a long time.
He glanced at Tatsuma and found that Tatsuma did not use the writing method taught by the teacher. It was more like holding chopsticks, with his fingers extremely close to the tip of the pen and his wrist directly touching the table.
Not only was Tatsuma's speed faster, but his handwriting was more standard and more beautiful. Seeing this scene, Minato's competitive spirit, which Tatsuma had discovered, began to scream.
Minato was not a stubborn person, so he changed the way he held the pen in the next second, imitating Tatsuma. He found that after having support on his wrist, not only did his hand feel less tired, but it was also easier to control the pen.
As two people who have no other requirements than calligraphy works, it is undoubtedly more efficient to use this method to copy.
The two of them kept copying, and Minato even felt that apart from the ink blocks of the font, there was only a piece of gold left in front of him. Minato knew for the first time that writing could be so painful.
Except for the first sip of the drinks on the table, neither of them drank anymore. After all, this was a game. If you drank too much and went to the toilet, it would be too disadvantageous. The same goes for snacks.
It wasn't until dusk that Tatsuma put down his pen, leaned back, closed his eyes and began to breathe deeply. He didn't even have the intention to declare victory. It was indeed a bit painful to concentrate on writing for several hours.
After he relaxed, Tatsuma looked at Minato and found that Minato didn't seem to notice that he had finished writing, and was still writing extremely seriously, but it was already at the end.
Tatsuma didn't bother Minato, and quietly stood up and left the training room. He rummaged through Minato's refrigerator and started cooking. This was already a routine operation. Minato often visited to cook, and there was nothing taboo about it.
After finishing the simple fried fish and miso soup, Minato finally walked out of the room. Seeing that Tatsuma had prepared the meal, Minato said weakly: "Tatsuma, this is the most convincing defeat I have ever had."
"Haha~ I may not be as good as you in other talents, but in this aspect, I will not lose to anyone."
"Ding~ [Physique +2], [Xian +2], [Forbearance +6]"
The harvest this time was somewhat beyond Tatsuma's expectations. It was not too little, but too rich. It also increased the upper limit of his weakest Ninjutsu talent limit, which was very rare.
At this time, Minato said: "When I was just copying it, I had some ideas, that is, the ninjutsu of Acupuncture Jizo can be divided into several steps and practiced separately."
Hearing this, Tatsuma finally knew why the Ninjutsu talent limit was rewarded. Minato was not only copying books, but also thinking. Thinking of this, Tatsuma also frowned, and then said:
"You are right. If we look at these two ninjutsu as a whole, the difficulty of level B is undoubtedly too high for us now, but after splitting, the difficulty of each step will be reduced, and maybe it can be done faster.
Master this ninjutsu.
As expected of you, Minato, you thought of this so quickly."
Tatsuma's praise this time was truly sincere. He was worthy of being a ninja who was gifted with the talent to develop ninjutsu. Being criticized by Minato, Tatsuma also thought of the ninjutsu that is representative of this split learning method.
"Get the kidneys and liver!"
