Chapter 154 Mediocrity and Genius

Nara Shikamaru is sleeping.

Because a person, or a normal person, generally needs sleep. He does the same.

The self-proclaimed genius needs sleep, and sleep is a time of silence. Only when he is calm can he pull his mind back from the infinitely turbulent world and prevent himself from facing the reality that his partner has been alienated.

.

Three weeks and twenty-one days have passed since he joined Sosuke Aizen's team. Compared to the agreed four weeks, it is only one month away. He has taken the time to basically read all the books and papers.

Although it was very shocking, in his eyes, telling the truth was just that. What he wanted to be was an ordinary ninja, not the kind of madman who exceeded his imagination.

But it was obvious that his friends were obsessed with it. Even now, as he hid in the room and closed his eyes, he seemed to be able to hear the three people outside starting to study and hone in on the shadow clone technique.

The three individuals who were once friends and ninjas murmured with red eyes. It was as if the devil from hell had reappeared. No matter what, Nara Shikamaru did not want to admit that those three people were once his friends and childhood sweethearts.

Since it was troublesome to change clothes, I simply wore the long white gown provided by Aizen, which was enough for one set. It seemed that the shame of men and women had been put aside. More than 500 hours of continuous study and research, and

The same research conducted on the infinite shadow clone technique has made them no longer within the scope of humans to a certain extent.

At least Nara Shikamaru had never seen any human being be able to twist and go crazy to such an extent in a short period of time.

The two young girls even ignored their own image and possible exposure problems, and used physical strength pills and awakening charms crazily. Wearing only white coats and red eyes, they delved into various issues related to chakra.

Aburame Shino is even more bizarre. There is no such thing as a woman in his eyes. The boy who used to be a little shy just seeing girls is now surrounded by two beautiful girls who are having sex everywhere. He

Not even a thought to pay attention.

Why do you say that? Because he has created more than a dozen shadow clones, and they are almost all doing the same thing, which is to test the environmental response of insects through different chakras in different petri dishes in the laboratory. Although he has known it for a long time

The Aburame family is a family that plays with bugs, but it was the first time he realized the horror of such things.

Aburame Shino studied bugs, and the other two girls studied chakra manipulation and flower deformation respectively. With the help of Aizen Sosuke's unlimited chakra and talisman, the three of them used it almost every hour.

A terrifying speed is rising. Every twenty hours, they will stop and start sharing their research notes and conjectures, confirming each other.

Nara Shikamaru once eavesdropped on their meeting. Although they were still not as proficient as him in memorizing it, they had reached a terrifying level in terms of various applications. Shino Aburame even proposed chakra information based on Flowers and Insects.

theory of elements.

Theoretically speaking, people can also be disturbed and changed by pheromones. If this paper is dug deeper, a series of incredible secret techniques may be born.

But for Shino Aburame, he just wants to explore better bugs.

On the twenty-first day, those people were studying when he was studying, and those people were studying when he was sleeping. If he had a headache, he would take the medicine given by Aizen. If there was a bottleneck in the research, he would start asking Aizen, and then look for relevant papers on his own to conduct theoretical research.

Research.

To be honest, Nara Shikamaru was really scared. He felt that this was not the learning and progress he knew. After all, isn't learning just like in a ninja school? Everyone happily learns some ninjutsu, and then continues

To study and then grow up happily, what else can it be? Why did it suddenly become so terrifying?

It feels as if as time goes by, they gradually change from ninjas to something else, completely different. When an individual's living habits, behavior, thinking logic, and even final growth

If the conditions are completely different from others, then can this kind of existence be called a human being? The three of them have not gone to the toilet or have physical activities for a full 21 days, but they still seem to be very healthy.

Look.

If this is a certain kind of technology, then Nara Shikamaru is indeed afraid of it.

He doesn't want to, and he definitely won't become like that.

In the lounge where there was only one person, Nara Shikamaru closed his eyes and gradually relaxed his mind, hoping to get a peaceful sleep.

This room is indeed extremely quiet, and the sound insulation effect is very good. Even if some experimental explosions and chakra turbulence often occur outside, there is no feeling inside.

But Nara Shikamaru always felt that there seemed to be some vague voice in his mind urging him, driving him. He didn't want to continue to sleep at this time, but wanted to do something, to do something

Big things. This kind of thinking always eats away at his spirit like a nightmare.

He was so smart that he even knew what the source of those sounds was. The feeling of inferiority, the sense of loss of being compared, and the boring self-esteem of being a genius were mixed into a source of motivation. All kinds of complex emotions drove him to continue to move towards that.

He couldn't see the future, but it was inexplicably attractive to go down a path. However, seeing the crazy behavior of those people, Shikamaru had to admit that he was scared.

He was afraid and resisted becoming that extreme.

Although he knew very well that this was actually only due to the one-month time limit, he also knew very well that it could become like this entirely because of Sosuke Aizen's unlimited support.

Even just from the taste of the chakra and the majestic fluctuations of its existence, he knew that the power of chakra contained in the various pills he had been fed these days was probably no less than the energy of a one-tailed Shukaku. Sustainability

The life of several children for dozens of days is nothing to worry about.

But no matter how many theories he has that can convince him, Nara Shikamaru is still huddled in a corner wrapped in a quilt, feeling the cold and inhuman atmosphere emanating from his companions, closing his eyes in a somewhat frightening world.

, praying that you can enter the state of sleep as soon as possible.

However, he didn't know whether it was a rebellious mentality or something else, but Shikamaru felt that his five senses were becoming clearer and more sensitive, and even the sounds of his breathing and heartbeat were deafening.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of the room door being opened.

A voice that sounded slightly heavier than a child came from the door.

"Ah, Shikamaru-kun. Are you already asleep?"

"...Not yet, Aizen-sensei, you should be able to tell the difference."

"That's true, but there are always things children want to hide from adults, so I have to remain polite."

The voice sounds soft and full of trustworthy magnetism.

Of course Nara Shikamaru knew who the owner of this voice was, what terrible abilities he had, and what powerful methods he had.

Aizen Sosuke, this man who has behaved like a gentleman for more than twenty days, and can even be said to be a perfect mentor, walked into the lounge, pulled out a chair and sat beside Nara Shikamaru's bed

.

"If you don't mind, can you talk to me? It's been three weeks and Shikamaru-kun still refuses to study. This makes me very distressed."

"If it's the ordinary theories, I've already memorized them. You didn't say that I have to understand everything, right? Didn't you say that as long as you memorize everything, it's fine?"

"That's the truth, but I still don't want to give up on you."

"You want me to join that kind of environment? Forget it, I actually don't even want to be a ninja."

Since it was a chat, there was no established position or idea. Some of the horrible emotions accumulated in Nara Shikamaru's heart seemed to be released because of the quilt and the darkness.

"I learn everything faster than others, and I'm smarter than others. I just don't want to be like that. If Aizen-sensei wants me to be like that, then there's no need.

I don’t think that looks like what a human being should look like.”

"...I think you made a mistake in one premise, Shikamaru-kun."

Behind Nara Shikamaru, Aizen Sosuke let out a helpless sigh.

"I don't cherish your so-called talent, Shikamaru-kun. I just don't want to give up when I see mediocrity. After all, your achievements affect my reputation, which has a great impact on me."

"Mediocre? Me?"

"Well. Compared to others, you are indeed a very mediocre person."

Under Shikamaru's somewhat contemptuous rhetorical question, Aizen Sosuke said calmly, as if he was explaining some kind of chilling truth.

"A little smart in fighting and a little smart in learning can be called smart, but it is not talent. Real talent must be displayed, not just because you spend less time than others."

"Time has never been a critical factor, the most important thing is the results. You spent one hour learning all the courses of the Ninja School and fully acquired it yourself. However, if you don't make any progress during the three years of study, your results will be

It's just no different from an ordinary ninja who has been around for three years. This is not called talent, this is called incompetence."

"Talent is called talent only when it is displayed. You haven't even seen it when you really need to fight, and you don't know the energy and ability required for the development and follow-up of ninjutsu. You are just immersed in cleverness and feel

It is the most common fallacy to think that you are talented because you spend less time than others and play more time than others. Because you are only satisfied with yourself. Objectively speaking, you are just an incompetent ordinary student.

That’s all.”

Aizen Sosuke's voice was steady and powerful, like some kind of weapon, stabbing into Nara Shikamaru's heart, dissecting his most sensitive parts.

Compared with the previous recorded geniuses in Konoha, Nara Shikamaru's real achievements were not that outstanding.

There is nothing wrong with him being a chuunin, but he has not been promoted to jounin. His grades are mediocre, and the results of chakra battles are mediocre. Although he claims to have hundreds of ways to defeat the enemy, if chakra doesn't work, just do it.

Less than.

But the problem is, if there is chakra, then anyone can easily defeat the enemy, right? Precisely because he is very smart, he understands this very well. In fact, he is not the kind of human being that appears in his imagination.

A genius with the upper limit of intelligence. In fact, he is exactly what Aizen said.

I just use this kind of thinking and think that I am a genius to escape the fear in my heart.

Facing Shikamaru who was starting to tremble in bed, Aizen's voice still calmly narrated behind him, analyzing everything about him.

"Same age, same grades, even worse development ability than others. Ino-kun has a record of developing Hanashuriken, and Sakura also elaborated on Sakura-Oki, a technique derived from Tsunade's strange power.

Not to mention Aburame Shino, his continuous improvement and development of insects is the result of commendable hard work."

"Many people will be deceived by so-called geniuses like you, but what I need is not such a person. What I need is someone who has the courage to face it. It is a good thing to be able to reach the standard in a short time, but it cannot make progress.

, that’s no different from trash to me.”

"A child like you doesn't even dare to lift the curtain or step out of his bed. To be honest, I just don't want you to pollute my reputation."

"..."

Totally impossible to refute.

Rather, he has been using the family's secret techniques and has never considered developing anything.

Compared with the other three people who were full of pioneering spirit, he did realize that he might not be within the scope of Aizen Soyousuke's needs. But, how do you say that?

He can do it too. He can also become like that.

Shikamaru felt a little angry now. Because it was the first time for him to be looked down upon like this.

Climbing up from the bed, Shikamaru stood directly on the ground and bowed deeply to Sosuke Aizen in front of him, expressing his respect for his master.

"Teacher Aizen, please teach me."

"Why should I guide you alone? You have nothing to learn, and there is no need for me to interfere with your hobbies and choices, right?"

"Eh?"

"Ah, maybe it's because many literary works have given you a wrong impression. I didn't chat with you specifically because I think highly of you. It's because you have fallen too far behind others, which will affect my reputation.

I'm just chatting with you specifically. As I said at the beginning, I just don't want you to embarrass my reputation. That's all."

Looking at Nara Shikamaru who seemed to be in a daze in front of him, Aizen Sosuke smiled awkwardly and pointed to the bed next to Shikamaru.

There were two girls' underwear scattered on it, which looked very disorganized. Compared to Aburame Shino, who had completely given up on human life, the other two girls would occasionally come back to change them because they were damaged due to experiments.

of clothing.

But now, the things Aizen put on it and were about to replace it can no longer be called clothes. They can only be said to be some kind of burned residue. And Aizen Sosuke was a little embarrassed to put the two girls

Pick up other clothes and walk out the door with the clothes like a real life teacher.

"And I'm not here to talk to you just because of you, Shikamaru-kun. It's because two girls, Sakura-kun and Ino-kun, conducted a joint chakra experiment, which caused all the clothes to be damaged. I'm here.

I'm here to bring them a change of clothes. Although research is a good thing, and staying energetic is not a bad thing, I just hope that you can have normal thoughts and rationality."

"Seeing two little girls naked and laughing amidst the sea of ​​flowers and cherry blossom rain created by chakra, to be honest, it is a rare sight for me. They are really

He is a rare research-oriented talent. He is worthy of being a chuunin who can develop his own ninjutsu."

"It's just that sometimes, I hope everyone can realize that they are still human beings. I really hope they won't feel too shy in retrospect."

"..."

This sentence is true.

Although they were talking about a topic that would make the young ninja blush, Shikamaru didn't feel the slightest bit of charm in his heart.

He knew Sakura and Ino, they could be said to be the two girls who cared about face the most in Konoha Village.

And the madness and terror they showed during this period also made Shikamaru feel lingering fear.

But, how should I put it? Although I know that Aizen Sosuke probably said this on purpose, what if? What if he really feels that way?

And from an adult's point of view, it seems that this is the right thing to think about? Ability that is not really used is never called an ability. No one knows what your real ability is before you use it. It's time to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.

After a long time, maybe I will really become a pig?

That's right, I don't seem to have anything to be afraid of, right? They have become so crazy because they all have their own dreams and goals in their hearts. Now is the time to move forward towards their dreams. If they don't get crazy, they will have no chance.

.But I have memorized everything, and I am still a genius. If I study it carefully when the time comes, I will definitely not be worse than them.

They don't even have this basic sense of shame, so what if they don't sleep? What if they study these seemingly weird and bizarre theories?

I am a genius in Konoha, so I should be able to learn this kind of thing if I just study casually.

"Wait, then……"

If you underestimate me, you will suffer big losses.

Then I will use some of the conclusions in the theory to prank you and prove my strength!

Putting on his coat directly, Nara Shikamaru gritted his teeth and began to walk towards the brightly lit experimental site.

After a few seconds.

"Shikamaru?! Why are you here!"

"Sasuke...what should I do now..."

"Shikamaru-kun, I know that life has been a bit depressing for you during this period, but I don't think it is necessary to do this."

"I obviously didn't see anything, why are you scolding me?!"

Seeing the two girls wearing Aizen's white coats who seemed to be gradually regaining their normal humanity, Shikamaru blushed and roared.
