Chapter 35: The Challenge
To the southeast of Konoha Village, there is a Forest of Morning Dew, and the north of the Forest of Morning Dew is a ninja training ground, where ninjas have developed a powerful ninjutsu and tested it in the ninja training ground, and many Konoha ninjas also conduct simulated battles here to practice combat skills.
At the junction of the Forest of Morning Dew and the Ninja Training Ground, in the middle of a dense forest, a clearing was artificially cleared in the forest, and several thick wooden stakes were erected in the clearing, and huge dumbbells, programs, stone locks and other exercise equipment were placed in the clearing.
A young man wearing a green leotard with a Konoha ninja battle vest on the outside, a Konoha forehead guard around his waist, leggings tied around his legs, and a pot lid on his head was sweating, constantly punching the stake tied with a thick rope.
Each punch made a dull sound on the stake, and the rope was worn out so badly that it looked like it was going to break in a short time.
"Hah!"
"Hey!"
"Ada!"
Every punch or kick is made, and the young man will shout loudly and be full of courage.
"The third thousandth punch, today's morning exercise goal has been achieved!"
After the last punch, the pot head ninja showed a mouthful of white teeth and smiled brightly.
"Very good, it's time to train for 300 laps around the village in a handstand."
The energetic pot lid seemed to have no idea what exhaustion was all about, and he stood upside down with his hands on the ground, swinging his arms like running, and running upside down in such a strange posture, he ran at a speed that was not inferior to that of ordinary ninjas running behind his arms.
Before he ran a short distance, he hadn't run into the forest path of the Forest of Morning Dew, when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and the ninja with the head of the pot lid was startled, and quickly stretched his arms violently, tossed backwards, and stood opposite the man.
With one hand behind his back and the other flat on his chest, the pot-headed ninja struck a physical starter.
The person who came was also a young man, with a cold appearance, looking a little handsome, with a strong figure, wearing a yellow leotard embroidered with dragon patterns on his chest, the tights showed his figure, the muscles of the man were well-proportioned, and the overall lines were smooth, but he did not look bloated and swollen.
"Not wearing a forehead guard?"
The ninja with the lid squinted slightly, grunting warily at the visitor.
Judging from the body shape, the young man in yellow who suddenly appeared was definitely a master of individual arts, and his muscles were the intuitive proof of his rigorous martial arts training, such muscles could only be possessed by martial artists, and they did not look exaggeratedly expanded, but they could burst out with amazing speed of power.
It can be seen at once that this person is definitely not an ordinary person, but he is not wearing a forehead guard, and the pot head ninja can't judge his identity for a while, even if he is a traitor and a fugitive ninja in the ninja world, he will wear a forehead guard that crosses the ninja village emblem, but this person does not follow the customs of the ninja world.
The visitor raised his hands, clenched his fist with one hand, spread out the other, pressed his palm against his fist, and gave a fist salute to the ninja with the pot head.
"Mr. Maitkai, please advise me when we meet for the first time."
Maitkai usually has a big grin, a heartless look, but when facing the enemy, he is extremely serious, looking thick and fine, after carefully looking at the other party, he asked with a cold face: "Who are you?" Why are you in my way? ”
"Mr. Kai, you will cultivate early in the morning, and you will have to spare Konoha Village for three hundred laps, if you finish it, it is estimated that it will be dark, have you forgotten something important?"
The young man in yellow didn't answer his question, but smiled and talked about unrelated topics.
"Oops!"
Maitkai patted his head and said in surprise: "What time is it today?" Seems like the tenth? Should go to the meeting place at the Hokage's office! I'm ready to meet my lovely students! ”
Pulling his hair in frustration, Maitkai seemed to have been hit hard, and he bent forward in frustration and fell to the ground.
"Isn't it the same as Kakashi's guy when he was late for the first meeting? It will make a bad impression on the cute students! ”
With a wail, Maitkai reacted, reminded himself that the guy was a suspicious person, and quickly jumped up and struck out again.
"How do you know?"
The young man in the yellow tights clasped his fists again and saluted: "Here is a little-known martial artist of the Dragon Country, after asking around, I heard from the villagers that the strongest ninja in Konoha Village is your 'arrogant blue beast' Maitkai, I have come to ask for advice, I want to know which of the physical skills of the ninja world and the martial arts of the Dragon Country are stronger or weaker." ”
"Oh! Everyone says I'm the best in Konoha physical arts? Ahaha, ahem......"
Maitkai hid a light cough twice, smiled confidently, stretched out his thumb, pouted his ass and posed as he thought he was very handsome, and said loudly: "That's right, you have found the right person, if you want to learn, you can accompany you at any time!" I didn't expect that in addition to being rich and technologically advanced, there are also people in your dragon country who are proficient in martial arts, why do you still need to practice martial arts if you use that kind of cannon in battle? ”
"Our Dragon Country has a long history and a long history, whether it is traditional culture or modern technology, it is broad and profound!"
The young man stood with his hands in his hands, and said proudly with his chin held high: "Science and technology can make the mind smart, martial arts can strengthen the body, the education of our dragon country pays attention to the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physical beauty, and the study of martial arts is not for the sake of technical attack, but for the purpose of exercising the people's physique and invigorating the national spirit." In the country of dragons, martial arts are also known as 'national arts', and it is a technique to extend the strength of the individual and the prosperity of the country. ”
"Wow......"
Maitkai's eyes widened, with a look of surprise and envy: "You can really say, I also think that physical skills are very important, but I can't say such nice words from you, can you say it again, I will write it down, and I will teach them when I go to meet them later." ”
"Do you want to use this passage to teach students to be handsome?"
The young man in yellow smiled slightly, and said coldly: "Then it depends on whether you can beat me, if you lose, you don't have to meet any students!" ”
When he said this, Maitkai's face sank, and he said solemnly: "It's just a competition, do you still want to kill me?" ”
"No, no, no."
The young man shook his head again and again, "Even if you are defeated by me, I will not kill you."
The young man said to Maitkai in a deep voice, "Actually, I appreciate your 'ninja way' very much. The aliens used 'ninjutsu' to lure the ninja people to blindly condense the chakra, and in the end, it was just to be squeezed by the divine tree to refine the elixir.
And you are the only one who has not been deceived by this kind of biochemical colonial invasion tricks, you do not rely on magical ninjutsu and noble bloodlines, you only hone yourself hard, and you can also obtain the combat power to compete with the Otsuki clan by relying on the strength of the ninja people themselves, this is the correct path of cultivation. ”
Maitkai looked confused, he couldn't understand what the other party was saying, and he couldn't figure out what he meant, why he admired himself, but he said that if he lost, he didn't have to go to see the student.
