Konoha's Shiranui Genma

Chapter 17 The Apprentice
After Sarutobiyan finished speaking, it happened that the store manager Ishino had just come out from the back hall.

"Master Yan." Store Manager Ishino greeted with a smile on his face.

The status of a talisman maker is no higher than that of a handyman. Even if he is the store manager, he is still polite to the master talisman maker, especially the surname of this master talisman maker is Sarutobi.

Sarutobiyan turned sideways: "Ishino, let me tell you something. Didn't this kid break dozens of sealed weights and owe some money? I will pay him back the money, and let him study with me in the future." sign."

"Ah?" Store Manager Ishino stopped in his tracks, blinked and said, "You want to take him in as an apprentice?"

"That's right." Sarutobiyan nodded with a smile, and reached out to take the painting in Shiranui Genma's hand, "Look, this talent for drawing is born to be a talisman maker."

Store manager Ishino came over to take a look, and saw that a young ninja was drawn on the paper with his hands in his pockets and a thousand books in his mouth. Although the drawing was casual, with only a few strokes in many places, it was very vivid and lifelike. , we can see the skill of the painter.

"This kid drew it?" He looked in disbelief.

Sarutobiyan returned the painting to Shiranui Genma, and smiled at the store manager Ishino, "Are you surprised? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it was drawn by a nine-year-old child."

He went on to say: "Drawing is the basic skill of a talisman maker, and people who are naturally good at drawing generally have good chakra control ability. I just tested his chakra attribute, the main attribute is fire, and he can be used as a detonating talisman." There must be no problem, so I decided to accept him as an apprentice."

Hearing this, Store Manager Ishino looked Shiranui Genma up and down again for a while, as if getting to know him anew.

Immediately he raised his head and said with a smile: "Since Master Yan, you have decided to accept him as an apprentice, of course I have no objection."

As he said that, Store Manager Ishino patted Shiranui Genma's shoulder again, and said in an unprecedentedly friendly tone: "Yes, boy! It seems that Mandiantang will have another outstanding talisman maker soon, haha .”

Looking at this amiable store manager, Shiranui Xuanma silently raised his middle finger.

……

When returning home, Shiranui Xuanma had just walked not far from home when he saw his avatar undergoing sprint training.

What is this for? Is the split body training technique useful?

He subconsciously wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, he would know when the clone was released after a while and the memory returned to the main body, so he ignored the clone and opened the door directly to enter.

If it is not necessary, it is a waste of chakra to communicate between the main body and the clone.

The avatar also tacitly ignored the main body, doing speed training on its own...

After a while, in the bathroom, when Shiranui Genma was brushing his teeth, a memory flooded into his mind, and it seemed that the clone had been released.

Looking back on the clone's experience of going to school for the first time, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Due to the limitation of the amount of chakra, the avatar seldom engages in physical activities in school, except for listening to lectures and sleeping, even the gymnastics class has been asked for leave on the grounds of physical discomfort.

After all, if the avatar is released due to exhaustion of Chakra, it will not only attract attention, but also lead to absenteeism, which will cause a lot of trouble.

So after the one-day course, the avatar began to consider whether to switch strategies, and finally decided to conduct an experiment to see how long the avatar could maintain physical activity.

The result was disappointing. The clone couldn't even last half a class for the most basic speed training.

Looking at it this way, the strategy of letting the avatar go to school until the amount of chakra reaches a higher level will not work.

Fortunately, he doesn't have to work full-time at Mandiantang anymore, so there is no need to set aside one to go to school by himself.

Since he can't go to school, what should the shadow clone do?

Practice spiral pills?
It doesn't seem to work, the unrecoverable chakra practice spiral pill that exists in the clone is probably gone in a while.

Shiranui Xuanma thought for a long time, but found that he couldn't find a suitable thing to do for the avatar.

Forget it, tomorrow is his first day as a talisman making apprentice, so let's keep Chakra for now, maybe it will be of great use.

……

The next day, after school, Shiranui Genma didn't even eat, so he went straight to Mandiantang and found Sarutobiyan's room.

The door of the room was not closed, and from the door, several people could be seen busy inside.

"Xuanjian is here, come in."

I don't know Huo Xuanjian hadn't knocked on the door, but Sarutobiyan's voice came from inside.

"Yes." Shiranui answered, then entered the room and closed the door smoothly.

This is a very spacious and long room, the furnishings are rather messy, and various talisman papers are everywhere.There are several compartments in the room, and in each compartment there is a young talisman maker, who seems to be the brothers and sisters of Shiranui Xuanma.

These young talisman makers were all concentrating on their work, and were not distracted in the slightest by Shiranui Xuanjian's entry.

Sarutobiyan, still casually dressed in slippers, led Genma Shiranui to the back of the room and sat down.

"Genma, you should be a third-year student at the ninja school, right? Can you use ninjutsu?" Sarutobi Yan asked while touching his sparse beard.

"Yes, teacher. I know some ninjutsu, such as body transformation, clone technique, substitute technique and shadow clone technique." Shiranui Xuanma said truthfully.

"Shadow clone." Sarutobiyan was surprised, "Can you use shadow clone now?"

Shiranui Genma nodded shyly: "Just yesterday I was able to use..."

However, what surprised him was that Sarutobiyan didn't show any surprise or approval, but twisted his beard and pondered.

After a while, he suddenly said: "Open your right hand, with the palm facing down, and try to create a chakra line that is vertical to the back of the hand, let me see."

I don't know why Xuanma didn't know why, but I did it anyway, opened my right hand, mobilized the chakra, and extended a chakra line vertically upward from the back of the hand, about ten centimeters.

Unless the chakra is very dense, it is difficult for ordinary people to see with the naked eye.However, although the eyes can't see it, they can feel it. The ability to perceive Chakra is the basic quality of a ninja, especially a perceiving ninja.

Sarutobiyan blinked: "Extend a bit."

Shiranui Genma did the same, extending the chakra line by ten centimeters.

"Extend it a bit more." While speaking, Sarutobiyan was obviously surprised.

Afterwards, Genma Shiranui extended the chakra line until it was above his head before stopping.

"That's all I can do, sir."

This operation sounds easy, but it is not simple to do, and it is not a small test for Chakra control ability.The chakra line that is vertical to the back of the hand and tens of centimeters long is the limit of Genma Shiranui.

If it goes any further, the chakra line will probably collapse.

Sensing the chakra line on the back of his hand, Yan Momobi stopped twisting his beard abruptly, and looked at Genma Shiranui, as if he was looking at a freak...
