Chapter 29: Hakuda!
"Oh right, I'm very curious how you used Kunai to blind one of the other's eyes. Although that fellow is nothing, he is still a genuine Gennin. No matter how careless he is, he would not be injured to such an extent by a child like you."
Mikawa suddenly looked at Aoba and asked.
Aoba's heart skipped a beat. Then, he pretended to be trying hard to recall and said, "I'm not too sure either. I was curled up on the ground and kept getting beaten, but because my body was special, I protected my vital points. When he bent down, I fought back..."
"I remember that he immediately dodged my first counterattack, but he didn't seem to notice that I was holding Kunai in my left hand. That was why I blinded one of his eyes."
He had already put [Kunai - Desert Eagle] back into the system space. In addition, there was no evidence of death, so Aoba made up such a statement. Anyway, no one could expose him.
After hearing this answer, Mikawa felt that something was wrong, but he felt that it was reasonable.
After all, it was possible for people to not react in time when they were arrogant. Moreover, this little kid had a lot of tricks up his sleeves. He even knew to suddenly attack people after enduring silently...
He was indeed a good seedling to be a ninja!
As for where Kunai came from...
When Mikawa arrived in time, he saw a few Kunai inserted in the ground. From the strength, it was undoubtedly Uchiha 'A' who threw them out. It was not impossible for him to pick them up and hide them in the chaos.
Mikawa instinctively filled up all the loopholes in Aoba's words, so he said that being arrogant was not scary, but being self-taught was scary!
"You're lucky this time. I happened to be nearby. Otherwise, your ashes would be spilled into the river now. It's only been a few days, but you actually caused such a big mess, and you even provoked the troublesome Uchiha clan. Could it be that you're a jinx?"
Mikawa said snappily.
"How would I know that Uchiha's people are so arrogant and domineering? They actually attacked a child. Besides, I didn't do anything! This is purely an undeserved disaster!" Aoba cried out on his behalf, feeling especially depressed.
He really did not expect Uchiha's reaction to be so intense. Of course, there was also him who had to court death. Provoking the other party had a certain relationship, but he definitely would not admit this.
Mikawa also knew that this, didn't really blame Aoba, but what else could he say?
The conflict between Uchiha's clan and the village was simply innumerable. It had not been a day or two since Uchiha had been arrogant and domineering, but only the higher-ups of Konoha had the right to speak about these things. He, a special Jonin, was nothing!
"Regardless of whether it was an unexpected disaster or not, in the future, you should stay away from the people of Uchiha's clan. After this incident, the other party should also be quiet for a period of time. However, although Uchiha's people would no longer make trouble for you on the surface, it was hard to say in the dark. Therefore, during this period of time before school, you should behave yourself. If you can endure, endure. Do you hear me?"
Aoba couldn't help but complain, but his body still opened the Bronze Treasure Chest honestly.
-[Open Bronze Treasure Chest, acquired physical skills - cultivation technique - [Hakuda]]-
In an instant, a large amount of combat skills and knowledge were integrated into his mind, and there was also a line of text on his 'tombstone', with the words [Hakuda]Level-0.
After Aoba absorbed this knowledge, he immediately thought of this [Hakuda].
'Isn't it the [Hakuda]in Bleach*?'
[*TL Note: In Bleach, Hakuda (White Hits or "Hand-to-Hand Combat") is a close-combat style of fighting, in which one is unarmed and uses only one's body, and is one of the four basic fighting styles of the Shinigami.]
"Zhan" means swordsmanship, "Ken" means white punching, "Hashi" means instant steps, and "Oni" means ghost.*
[*TL Note: this refers to the kanji of four combat skills of shinigami; Zanjutsu, Hakuda, Hohou, and Kidou]
Although the[Hakuda] in the world of Shinigami was not particularly famous compared to the other three, there would be a qualitative leap in cultivation to the highest point, such as the combat technique that was fused with the "Kidou" —Shunkou!
Although Aoba did not know about Kidou, because of the existence of the dog system, everything was possible for him to grow.
And even if he put aside Shunkou, [Hakuda]was also a rare fighting technique.
For him, who was extremely lacking in fighting methods, this was like sending charcoal in the snow. He could just polish his body and learn physical skills at the same time.
However, when he cultivated [Hakuda], he couldn't be so open and aboveboard. Otherwise, he really couldn't explain it clearly.
Then there was the beginner skill card that he gave after the upgrade.
This beginner skill card could only upgrade his ability to Level 3 at most, so he had to think about which ability to use it.
If he wanted to increase his life-saving ability, it was undoubtedly the most cost-effective way to upgrade [Hardening] to Level 3. However, with his current physical strength, even if [Hardening] reached Level 3, he would not be able to fully display it.
To be honest, for him right now, it was too weak. There was no need for him to upgrade it. This was undoubtedly a later stage ability that could only be fully used after his HP and defense were stacked up.
Then, only [Poor Quality Self Healing Body] and the newly obtained [Hakuda]were left to choose between the two.
After carefully thinking about it, Aoba opened one of the abilities.
