The next morning, Dedale woke up and lifted the curtains. It was dark outside, and there wasn't a single pedestrian.
Dedale had never woken up so early before. He immediately wanted to lie down and continue sleeping, but for some reason, he wasn't sleepy at all. He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
"Alright, you win. I'll get up and exercise now.”Dedale helplessly sighed, put on his clothes, and quickly jumped out of the window. He used the roofs of the houses as a support point and sped out of the village.
Naruto had given Dedale's various stats. In terms of chakra capacity, speed, intelligence, and ninjutsu, Dedale had extraordinary abilities. Dedale's physical skills, illusions, strength, and hand seals could only be considered above the average level of Jounin. Because of the perfect fusion of the two souls, Dedale now had extraordinary mental power. This would greatly increase Dedale's chakra content and seal speed, as well as increase his resistance to illusions.
Chakras were a type of energy produced by the perfect fusion of spiritual energy and physical energy. Physical energy could be continuously extracted from cells, while spiritual power needed to be accumulated by one's own spiritual power and cultivation. Therefore, the key to determining the total amount of chakras was spiritual energy.
The amount of chakra seemed to have nothing to do with strength, but it was the cornerstone for all ninjutsu illusions to be used. Without chakras, one would not be able to launch an attack and would be at the mercy of others. If you don't have enough chakras, you won't be able to use powerful high-level ninjutsu and will be suppressed.
Dedale's Chakra capacity had already reached the Elite Ninja level, and he was also in a saturated state. If he wanted to increase it, he would have to accumulate it over time to break through. But when he was cultivating last night, Dedale discovered that his chakra had grown a lot. It was probably a change brought about by the growth of his mental power.
The speed of hand seals was a manifestation of one's reflexes. Those with quick minds would naturally be faster, while those with slow reflexes would naturally be slower. The speed of the hand seal was related to the time when the ninjutsu was activated. Being a step faster would give him the upper hand. Uchiha Weasel's single-handed hand seals could always achieve unexpected results, causing trouble for the opponent was the light of his strong sealing ability.
Dedale himself didn't need a very fast hand seal speed, because his Explosive Clay only needed a hand gesture to control it to explode. However, Explosive Clay had a fatal weakness, and Dedale didn't want to be at his wit's end if his weakness was discovered. Thus, learning other ninjutsu was very necessary.
Illusions were Dedale's weakness, and Dedale's several failures could be said to be due to illusions. Dedale couldn't do anything about it. Illusions weren't his forte, and even if he had some achievements in cultivating illusions, he would still be defeated by Sharunan. Wasn't Sunset Red the same?
He could only work on his resistance to illusions to avoid being confused by the Shurakan. With a strong mental strength, he could avoid the interference of others on his mind and avoid being affected by illusions.
Of course, if Weasel used Moon Reading, Dedale would definitely fall for it. However, the conditions for releasing Moon Reading were very harsh. It was a close-range ninjutsu, and it was useless when the two were more than five meters apart. And Dedale was a long-range attacker. Moreover, the moon reading was a mental attack. It could only cause great damage to the other party's mind and had no effect on the body. If one's mental power was strong, it would be easy to resist the attack of the moon reading. It would not collapse after the moon reading ended and they would not have the strength to fight anymore.
Thus, for Dedale, the improvement of his other abilities had an innate advantage and could easily reach the peak. In terms of physical skills and strength, he could only rely on his own efforts.
Although Dedale was a long-range attacker, no one could guarantee that he could always maintain this distance advantage. If he couldn't pull away from the enemy, who was also a Bodywork expert, Dedale would suffer a huge loss. Dedale, who pursued perfection, didn't want to have any serious shortcomings.
Bodywork didn't need to consume chakras. It could effectively prevent the war of attrition and prevent his chakra capacity from being insufficient. (Bodywork profoundness requires the consumption of chakras, such as the surface lotus flower, the inner lotus flower, etc.)
This was because Bodywork was a combination of strength and technique, and the purpose of increasing strength was to improve Bodywork. Techniques could only be accumulated and comprehended through continuous battles, so Dedale only needed to continuously train to increase the explosive power of his arms and legs.
By the time he finished all the exercises, two hours had passed. The gray sky had already cleared up, and Dedale was sweating profusely as he lay on a huge rock, panting.
As he felt the sweat dripping down his skin, Dedale suddenly felt refreshed. This kind of hard work was really rewarding!
Realizing that it was getting late, Dedale quickly got up from the ground and returned to his bedroom.
After washing up, he went downstairs to have breakfast with Hei Tu. Because he was out on a mission, he couldn't play with Hei Tu, so he made some unfair agreements.
Dedale had come here on time, but when he arrived at Earth Shadow's office, only Earth Shadow was reviewing documents.
Dedale had no choice but to sit down and practice hand seals while waiting. After waiting for more than half an hour, the tightly shut door finally reacted.
A little girl wearing a pink kimono walked in. She had soft hair. Soft and slender hair, snow-white and delicate skin, and a doll-like delicate face. What a top-grade little loli. When she grew up, she would definitely be a beauty that could topple countries.
Behind the little girl was a white-haired, kind-looking old man. What attracted Dedale's attention was the katana hanging at the old man's left waist. Recalling the sharp gaze the old man had when he entered the room, Dedale was certain that the old man was a warrior with excellent saber techniques.
"Greetings, Lord Tu Ying!" The old man came in front of Tu Ying and performed a standard warrior salute." Sorry to have disturbed you these past few days. We are here to bid farewell today.”
"It is our village's honor that the princess can come to the village to play. There is no need to disturb her.”Tu Ying waved his hand and smiled." Little princess, did you have fun these past few days?”
The little princess nodded." I've troubled you these past few days. Thank you!”
His voice was very sweet, and Dedale secretly praised him. Coupled with impeccable etiquette and good manners, Dedale couldn't see that the little princess was as arrogant as Tu Ying had described.
"Since you want to return to the residence, I won't try to keep you. There shouldn't be any danger along the way, but the princess's safety is of great importance, so I've arranged for some ninjas to protect her along the way to ensure that nothing goes wrong. I hope you won't refuse.”
A hint of desolation flashed in the old man's eyes. Although he did not want to admit it, the glory of the samurai was indeed over. Now, it was the stage of the ninja. If they encountered a powerful enemy along the way, the dozen warriors who were protecting the princess might not be their match. Considering the princess's safety, the old man nodded and agreed.
"Sir Earth Shadow, can I see the ninja who is protecting me first?”The little princess, who had been quietly standing at the side, continued to speak. Dedale didn't notice that the princess was looking at him with a sly smile on her face as if she was planning something.
"The ninjas protecting the princess are all elites selected from the Dark Group. Because of the rules, it is not convenient for them to show their true faces. They will protect the princess in secret along the way so that they will not disturb the princess's daily routine. Please rest assured, Princess. They are all carefully selected and are absolutely trustworthy.”All he needed to do was to tell the old man. However, when the princess mentioned it, Tuying explained," I heard that the princess is very interested in ninjutsu, so I've specially arranged for a ninja of the same age to accompany the princess throughout the journey.”
"Is it him?" The little princess stretched out her hand. She pointed at Dedale and said," What kind of ninjutsu can this little wimp know? What kind of ability can he have?”He sounded like an adult.
Because of his predecessor's influence, Dedale had also become a child. Being ridiculed by such a beautiful little loli, Dedale immediately became angry.
"Princess, you can try to see if I have that ability!”Dedale appeared behind the little princess.
Hot air sprayed from the corner of his mouth onto the little princess's right ear, and Dedale found that the little princess's cheeks had instantly turned red.
Dedale was too fast, and the white-haired old man only reacted at this moment. Without hesitation, the old man's right hand quickly grabbed the hilt and pulled it out.
The katana slipped with a light smack. Dedale's finger was already on the front of the katana. No matter how hard the old man tried, the katana didn't budge.
"Haha, a mere youth has such ability. Impressive, impressive.”The old man had lived for most of his life and had long seen through everything. He no longer had the heart to fight. Unable to see through the stalemate, he took the opportunity to retract his saber.
"Is Princess satisfied with this?" Earth Shadow saw everything, but he didn't stop Dedale's actions.
Seeing the old man suffer a loss, the little princess coldly snorted, glared at Dedale, and hurriedly walked out.
Seeing Earth Shadow's 'follow' look, Dedale had no choice but to follow.
He had provoked the main character the moment they met. He was afraid that there would be no peace along the way.
