47. Going out of the village and teaching
"Sorry, everyone, I'm late."
In the fifth class meeting, Takuma Chiba was the last one to arrive. In fact, Takuma Chiba wanted to go out very early, but because this was the first time Takuma Chiba left home for a long time to go out of the village to perform tasks, my mother pulled him to instruct many things and prepared a large bag of Takuma Chiba.
I felt like when I left home to go to college in my previous life, my mother stuffed things into her suitcase in various ways.
In the end, Takuma Chiba was persuaded, and my mother did not ask Takuma Chiba to bring the backpack, because Takuma Chiba said that too much stuff would lead to mobility difficulties, and if there was an attack, it would be life-threatening.
Just when Takuma Chiba was proud of his wit, he regretted the next second because when he heard that it was still in danger of life, his mother held Takuma Chiba's hand and started various advice again, making it look like a separation from life and death.
Finally, the gathering time was almost here, so Chiba Takuma had to leave.
"It's not too late, it's not time to gather. So are everyone ready for things?" Asma Sarutobi asked.
“It’s ready.”
The Shinin does not have a special ninja uniform. The so-called preparation is actually ninja forehead protection and ninja bags. Ninja forehead protection is the most direct way to identify identity outside.
Each ninja of Konoha will obtain two ninja bags after becoming a ninja ninja, which are specially used to place ninja instruments, one tied to the right thigh and the other on the left waist.
These two ninja bags are extraordinary, just like Pokémon's backpack, with a huge and small ninja bag, which can hold many ninja bags of sizes no more than ninja bags.
"Okay, let's go."
This time their mission is to deliver an important letter to an official in the capital of the Fire Kingdom within five days. Although it is an "important letter", because the scope of activity is in the Fire Kingdom, it is unlikely to encounter hostile ninjas, so it is only a C-level mission.
All the three of them left Konoha Village for the first time. As soon as they left the barrier, they all admired the outside world curiously.
Konoha Village can be divided into broad and narrow meanings. In a narrow sense, Konoha Village refers to the village within the wall, just like the ancient cities in previous lives; in a broad sense, it refers to the place covered by the barrier, which is equivalent to the boundary. Within the barrier, it belongs to the scope of Konoha Village.
After leaving Konoha Village, the four of them ran quickly under the leadership of Asma Sarutobi. The running posture of ninjas in this world was called "ninja run". When they were running, they leaned forward, swung their arms behind, and their palms were slightly clenched upwards. The whole body looked very smooth and streamlined.
If we follow ordinary laws of physics, doing this can reduce air resistance and avoid unnecessary movements affecting speed. In addition, it also frees hands. Ninjas can deal with the fastest speed when encountering crisis, whether using ninja tools or forming seals with both hands.
The reason why it is called "ninja running" is because only ninjas can do this way of running, because the human body cannot only consider physics, but also biological aspects.
When a normal person is running, he sways his arms back and forth to maintain balance. If he loses his hands to maintain balance, it will not only affect his speed, but also lose balance and is at risk of falling. Therefore, ordinary people cannot do ninja runs at all.
When the ninja is running, he uses a small amount of chakra to suck the ground, and then uses the leg muscles to produce reaction forces to maintain balance, so there is no need for both hands. This movement has been taught since the first grade of the Ninja School, and every student does it very standard.
"Hey, Mr. Asma, why did you stop?" Halfway through the way, Asma Sarutobi suddenly stopped.
"Look carefully, what's around?" Asmasa Sarutobi asked.
"Enemy?" Katakichi immediately transformed into Monkey King, put his hand on his forehead, looked left and right.
Takuma Chiba and Sako Nara were also carefully exploring the surroundings, but there was nothing except the sparse woods and the short bushes, and there was no chakra fluctuation.
"Nothing is there." Katakito said, and Takuma Chiba and Sako Nara also looked at Asma Sarutobi hoped that he could solve his doubts for him.
Asma Sarutobi smiled, squatted down and picked up a stone from the ground: "Ninja, you must not relax your vigilance at any time. You must observe all directions and listen to all directions."
As he said that, he threw the stone in his hand towards a big tree not far away. The stone did not hit the big tree, but fell at the root.
Dongdongdongdongdong...
As soon as the stone fell, more than a dozen sharp arrows shot out from the shrubs and leaves next to them, and all this small area was covered with sharp arrows.
"Train, this..."
"Yes, traps, hunting traps set by hunters." Sarutobi Asma said:
"If you encounter this kind of trap, if you didn't find it in advance, it will be difficult for you to avoid it perfectly. This is just a hunting trap set by ordinary hunters. If it is set by ninjas, it will be more difficult to deal with and more dangerous. Even I cannot guarantee that I can avoid it. If you apply poison to these arrows, even if you avoid it, you will be in danger of life if you are injured. If you replace it with a detonation talisman, you can keep your corpse alive."
After saying that, Sarutobi Asma flashed the three of them with a serious look and said, "You have a lot to learn. Don't think that if you pass my assessment, even if you are a qualified ninja, it just means that you are qualified to be ninja."
"Taoma, especially you, although your strength is good, if you encounter a ninja who is good at setting traps, you can also kill you, so you must not be careless."
"Yes!" Chiba Takuma nodded. Because of the Tsushima Rishu, Chiba Takuma never dared to underestimate anyone. Now Asma Sarutobi has taught herself a vivid lesson again.
There was a saying in my previous life - no matter how strong martial arts are, if you shoot the head, this sentence is equally effective in the ninja world. Even a shadow-level strong man will definitely die if he is pierced by kunai.
"As ninjas, you must remember that you must always be vigilant. In the ninja world, there are many Uenin who die in the hands of the Shinin because of carelessness. Do you remember?"
"Yes, teacher!"
"Teacher Asma, how do you see that this is a trap?"
"Because as long as it is arranged, no matter how precise it is, there will be flaws. Just like any ninjutsu has flaws, as long as you pay attention to it, you can find that no matter what trap it is, first of all, there must be a trigger. Look here..."
