Konoha: The seal art teacher of the ninja school

Xia Yan is on fire.

His unique sealing technique class quickly became the hottest topic in the ninja school.

Even though a day had passed, the little ninjas were still happily discussing all the details of that class.

Those students who took this course became the center of various small circles and were constantly asked to recount what they saw in class.

Whether the Immortal of Six Paths wears sunglasses, whether the shrine maiden and the dog demon have an adulterous affair, whether Onmyoji Xiaozhi can become a master of the sealing technique, and the three uses of the clone technique...

Whenever Xia Yan's "performance" is mentioned in class, the little ninjas will be beaming with joy and cherish their treasures.

I feel lucky that I took this sealing art course.

The students who did not take this course were all beating their chests and regretting so hard that their intestines were blue.

If Xia Yan were here, he would definitely help them express his feelings:

"There was once a wonderful course in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. I only regretted it after losing it. The most painful thing in the world is this..."

Many people hurriedly found their class teachers and asked with a rare flattering look:

"Do you think I still have a chance?"

The reason for being so humble is to apply to be transferred to Teacher Xia Yan's sealing arts class.

…

"I was sitting in the front row and could see it very clearly. The Immortal of Six Paths must have been wearing sunglasses!"

In the classroom of Class A of the first year, Uchiha Obito was sitting cross-legged on the podium, making vigorous gestures with his hands, describing what he saw for the nth time to his classmates who did not go to class.

The way he was spitting was quite a bit like the Third Hokage.

He is truly a man who wants to become Hokage.

There is a reason why Obito works so hard.

Although he was not ostracized by his classmates as he was usually the tail end of the crane, he was always the target of ridicule.

Unexpectedly, I just went to a sealing art class and suddenly became a fragrant steamed bun.

After the students who didn't go to class heard about the rumors about that class, they all found Obito, who was the most talkative, to inquire about the situation.

Naturally, our Tu'er brother would not miss this opportunity. He quickly got into the mood and began to proudly tell what he had experienced.

I couldn't help but feel happy in my heart.

In fact, he wasn't interested in the sealing arts class at all. After all, this stuff was very difficult once he heard it.

He only took this course to take classes with Lin.

Unexpectedly, this became the most correct thing he did in his life!

In order to make everyone enjoy the story, Obito tried his best and racked his brains to tell the story more excitingly.

So as the number of times he told it increased, the picture he painted became more and more exaggerated.

For example, at this time, Obito is telling everyone about his magically modified version of the Sage of Six Paths vs. the Demon.

"... Let's talk about the Six Paths Immortal wearing sunglasses. He is eight feet tall and his waist is also eight feet wide."

The first sentence at the beginning is a critical attack.

Some students in the crowd couldn't help but complain: "Then isn't he a Sifang guy?"

Obito's eyes widened: "There are four directions, really, I'll tell you all the octagons. Otherwise, how could he defeat the demon who is nine feet tall and has a waist width of nine feet?"

"So the legendary battle was actually two cubes colliding?" someone else complained.

"Wonderful! Then write numbers from one to six on the six sides of their bodies, and let them compete. Whoever ends up with the higher number on his head wins."

"Throw! Isn't that just throwing dice!"

"..."

Obito scratched his head and felt that he had gone too far in making it up, so he had to pretend that he didn't hear everyone's complaints and continued talking.

"...At this moment, the Immortal of Six Paths shouted, 'Monster, do you recognize this treasure?', and then took out a rice cooker shining with colorful divine light."

students:"……"

Obito said solemnly: "This rice cooker is quite famous. It is called the Goddess of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. It shakes its head in fear of thunderbolts, golden light and thunder. Once it is opened, all humans, animals, shrimps, scales and fleas within a hundred miles will be sucked into it and transformed into

A pot of rice…”

It can only be said that the entertainment activities in Konoha today are still too scarce, and most of them are not suitable for children.

For details, please refer to a certain Konoha Sannin who does not want to be named.

So even if everyone knew that Obito was making things up, they still heard it with interest.

Even low-quality "fan works" like Obito are sought after by everyone.

One can imagine how much impact Natsuhiko's class had on going to the ninja school.

Even Obito sighed exaggeratedly as he spoke: "Ah, it's a pity that you didn't go to class. No matter how detailed I explained, it's not even one-tenth as interesting as the one in person."

Although he said he felt sorry for everyone, his tone always sounded like he was showing off.

When he said this, his eyes kept glancing at a certain boy with white hair and a mask and dead fish eyes.

A certain boy with white hair and a mask with dead fish eyes - that is, Kakashi Hatake - was sitting in the window seat in the first row, holding his chin with his right hand and looking out the window, his eyes blank, completely ignoring Obito's intentions.

In the past, he might have chosen to tease Obito as a pastime.

However, since that man passed away, Kakashi suddenly felt like he had lost interest in many things.

It seems that the whole world has become a lot darker.

The only thing he wants to do now is to become a ninja as soon as possible and use his actions to wash away the stigma that that man has brought to his family.

For this reason, he has applied for early graduation.

Unfortunately, although Mr. Biwako, the vice-principal, approved his application, he did not arrange an exam for him immediately. Instead, he was asked to take the assessment with the graduates at the end of the semester.

Although he was not satisfied with this arrangement, Kakashi had nothing to do.

The time he spends in the ninja school now is torture every minute. He is too lazy to deal with Obito, a deadbeat.

As for the sealing technique lesson Obito mentioned? Kakashi didn't care at all.

As a genius of the Hatake clan, he has a clear understanding of his future path.

As the saying goes, the right one is the best.

Is sealing useful?

Of course there is, but at the same time it takes a lot of time to learn, and this is a late-stage skill, and the early-stage improvement to your strength is very small.

For Kakashi, who is still in the period of rapid growth, the price/performance ratio is very low.

He still has a lot of ninjutsu, taijutsu, and illusions to learn, but he doesn't have time to spend on sealing techniques.

In fact, many famous ninjas in history only started to spend time studying sealing techniques to make up for their shortcomings after their strength reached a bottleneck.

So even though people around him are enthusiastic about the sealing arts class, Kakashi doesn't have much interest.

"Humph, you pretentious guy!"

Obito got angry when he saw Kakashi completely ignoring him, muttering to himself.

I don’t know if it’s because of their incompatibility, but they didn’t like each other when they first entered the ninja school.

But at least the Kakashi of the past would still argue and quarrel with him, but now he just puts on a bitter and hateful face.

Don't think I can't tell you are wearing a mask!

Kakashi like this is completely meaningless.

And there is another thing that makes Obito a little anxious.

That means he has heard that Kakashi will directly take the graduation exam at the end of this semester.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Obito knew that Kakashi would be able to pass the exam easily with his strength.

This means that Kakashi only has one semester left in the ninja school.

Obito felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of this.

It's not because of jealousy.

Although Obito is not Kakashi's opponent yet, he believes that as long as he awakens his Sharingan, he will be able to defeat Kakashi easily.

It's a pity that the Sharingan can't be opened just when he wants to, at least he has no sign of opening it now.

Obito finally attributed this emotion to one thing.

That is because when he first entered school, he boasted that he would defeat the genius Kakashi in Haikou, but he has not succeeded yet.

After Kakashi graduates and the two of them lose contact, it may be difficult for them to have another chance.

"Damn it, just once. Is there any way I can defeat this guy Kakashi before the end of the semester?"

Just when Obito was thinking hard about how to defeat Kakashi, the person behind his destiny was suddenly caught.

"Obi-tsuchi-! Have you finished your homework in the sealing arts class?"

Obito's face froze and he immediately forgot about Kakashi.

Only then did he realize that he had been surrounded by a group of girls for some time.

What about the audience listening to his story? They are so unloyal.

Obito complained in his heart.

The leading girl cracked her finger bones and said with a smile:

"Don't forget, your homework scores will affect the average grade of our girls' group. We kindly took you in, but you can't let us down."

"It was obviously arranged by Teacher Natsuhiko." Obito couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

"Huh? What did you say?" The elder sister who took the lead smiled more and more kindly.

"No...nothing." Obito quickly waved his hand and said, "Yes, homework, I still have...a little bit left to finish. Don't worry."

Obito patted his chest in assurance, but his eyes drifted to other places unconsciously.

The leading lady looked at Obito suspiciously and said:

"Then give us Kangkang now and let the sisters check your homework."

Obito's face immediately turned dark.

But before he had time to object, he saw the leading lady wave her hand, and the girls around him tacitly picked themselves up and headed toward his seat.

"Ya Zhudie~"

At this time, Obito was extremely scared.

Thinking of the assignment in his school bag that only had a title, Obito felt desperate.

Perhaps, this is the mood of those condemned prisoners before going to the execution ground.

"Idiot~"

Kakashi was still looking out the window, but there was such an imperceptible word coming from under the mask.

…

Xia Yan, who was the center of everyone's conversation, was currently in a quiet library, unable to hear what was going on outside the window.

He has been hiding here reading since class yesterday, completely unaware of the impact he has had on the ninja school.

Although Natsuhiko made an application to check out the sealing arts books donated by Mito-sama in the library.

Unfortunately, Sarutobi Biwako did not approve it, saying that he would have to wait until he became a full-time trainee.

Obviously not only Xia Yan, but also the Vice Principal also knows how to dangle carrots in front of people.

Although Xia Yan was a little regretful that he could not see those precious sealing art books for the time being.

However, the library also contains ancient ninjutsu scrolls and various travel notes donated by the major ninja clans at that time. There are also many things worth learning from.

The ancient people's imagination of Ninjutsu can broaden Xia Yan's thinking.

The common sense that the ancients thought was common knowledge and was written down casually may now be a precious secret.

More importantly, the rune knowledge that Xia Yan longed for was probably hidden between the lines of these books.

Because the runes used in the sealing technique are themselves an ancient script.

Xia Yan learned a fact based on the records.

In ancient times, in addition to being used to control chakra, runes were also used by people to record knowledge.

The two methods of using runes eventually led to the split of the rune language and took different paths.

The runes used to record knowledge no longer need to be injected with chakra. At the same time, for the convenience of writing and reading, the fonts are gradually simplified and other characters are integrated.

It has gradually transformed from a carrier of chakra to a tool for simply recording knowledge.

In the end, it evolved into the characters commonly used in the ninja world today.

And the path of using runes to control chakra has not developed much better.

For many years, the rune language has been squeezed out by the seal language, so much rune knowledge has been lost.

In addition, the rune language has produced many irregular, deformed, and ambiguous runes during its difficult inheritance and development.

This caused a lot of trouble for subsequent researchers, including Xia Yan.

Xia Yan looked through these ancient books in order to collect the ancient characters that had not been completely simplified and combine them with the deformed and incomplete runes to deduce the original appearance of those runes.

Xia Yan calls it the "original rune".

After years of hard work, Xia Yan now only masters 233 original runes.

There is still a long way to go before we can fully learn all the runes and even master the truth of Chakra.

Considering the future Third Ninja War, Xia Yan did not dare to neglect and was determined to empty out the library before leaving school.

At this time, he was standing in front of the bookshelf, holding a book "Postpartum Care of Ninja Dogs" in his hand and flipping through it quickly.

If someone were passing by nearby, they would notice that Xia Yan's eyes were glowing with a faint blue light, looking strange.

Snapped.

After finishing reading, Xia Yan closed the book.

As expected, it was a book donated by the Inuzuka clan. The content inside was rich in pictures and texts, which opened his eyes.

The useless knowledge has increased again.

I don't have any knowledge about runes or sealing techniques.

But this is normal.

Looking for useful knowledge in these books is like digging for gold in the sand, and the price/performance ratio is very low.

There were many new teachers who had the same idea as Xia Yan and tried to hunt for treasures here.

But it often takes a lot of time and ends up with no results.

These books in the library are gradually regarded as useless by everyone.

Xia Yan is not worried that this will happen to him, because he has special reading skills.

After he put "Postpartum Care of Ninja Dogs" back on the bookshelf, he took out a book next to it and took a look at the title: "Postpartum Care of Ninja Cats".

It’s actually a series of books!

In order to avoid missing important information, Xia Yan opened it and started browsing quickly.

At the same time, his eyes glowed with azure blue, and he opened and closed each time he turned a page of the book, making a slight clicking sound at the same time.

The art of taking photos is also jokingly called the art of camera by Xia Yan!

The principle of this technique is to use your eyes as cameras, and record the images you see in the storage space of the chakra metal ball through chakra.

Xia Yan planned to use this method to record the books in the library, and then use other methods to organize and analyze them.

Obviously, when Xia Yan said that he wanted to empty out the library, he was not just talking about it.
