I Want to Spar with You
Seeing Itachi use a movement technique that was faster than ordinary ninjutsu, Shisui immediately activated Body Flicker Technique to give chase.
"Itachi, what are you doing...?"
Shisui glanced curiously at the movement of Itachi's feet.
From his perspective, one could vaguely see that with each movement, Itachi's feet would rapidly stomp through the air.
It is by stepping on the air at extremely high speed that a powerful counterforce is generated, which propels the body forward rapidly.
This technique is more of a taijutsu (body technique) than a ninjutsu.
But Shisui had never seen such a physical movement technique before.
"This is Lin Yan's ' Six Powers,' Brother Shisui."
The weasel answered.
He then added, "But my speed is far inferior to his, and I can't yet fully unleash the true potential of this ability..."
"Is this the ' Six Powers '?"
Shisui was somewhat surprised.
Upon closer observation, one can indeed discover the peculiarity of Itachi's current mode of movement.
Not only is it fast, but it also seems to require very little effort.
"How are you feeling?"
Shisui asked instinctively.
Escape techniques are basic ninjutsu techniques that ninjas typically use for traveling and tracking.
It belongs to the category of Body Flicker Technique.
But it is the most basic Body Flicker Technique.
The advantage is that it consumes very little Chakra, but the disadvantage is more obvious: its speed is not as fast as other Body Flicker Technique.
A true beginner's Body Flicker Technique consumes far more Chakra.
The resulting speed increase is also quite significant.
The unique nature of ninja missions, coupled with their own limitations, dictates that they must cleverly choose the appropriate ninjutsu to perform their tasks in the right context.
Otherwise, the possible situations include, but are not limited to, insufficient Chakra.
Now, Lord Danzo is so interested in the Six Powers.
This naturally led Shisui to wonder if the Six Powers could greatly help improve the strength of ninjas.
Therefore, he wanted to ask Itachi how he was feeling right now.
Itachi was very clever; he immediately understood what the key information Shisui wanted to ask was.
He replied, "I can only say that the Six Powers is a very effective and significantly enhances the physical abilities of people with strong physiques."
"So you think your current technique is more convenient than escape techniques, right?"
Shisui immediately pressed for an answer.
"Yes, Brother Shisui."
Upon hearing Itachi's words, Shisui immediately had a look of Satori realization.
After a while, his eyes flickered, and his expression became thoughtful.
The two were focused on their journey.
About half a minute later, Shisui suddenly asked again, "What are the techniques of the Six Powers?"
"The technique I'm using now is called 'Shave,' and when combined with another martial arts technique called ' Geppo,' it can achieve an effect similar to your Body Flicker Technique, Brother Shisui."
"Oh? That's amazing?"
"Yes, I witnessed Lin Yan use that move firsthand; it was incredibly powerful."
"What about the other moves and techniques?"
"The rest include defensive techniques called ' Kami-e ' and ' Tekkai,' and offensive techniques called ' Tempest Kick ' and ' Shigan '..."
Itachi told Shisui everything he knew in detail.
After listening, Shisui became even more interested in this kind of physical skill.
"A taijutsu technique comparable to the Body Flicker Technique...?"
"In that case, I'd really like to experience Lin Yan's strength for myself."
Lin Yan was still on the training ground, instructing Naruto and Sasuke on their training.
However, at this moment, they were no longer practicing the Six Powers, but were meditating under the tree, condensing their Chakra.
Lin Yan herself stood on the tree and earnestly tried to refine Chakra, following the method Itachi had taught her.
He has already fused a large amount of spiritual power and physical energy in a one-to-one ratio.
And thus gained a continuous source of powerful physical strength.
However, Lin Yan always got stuck at the last step when it came to further refining and transforming physical strength into Chakra, which puzzled her greatly.
He opened his eyes and looked at Naruto's Sasuke.
Lin Yan was momentarily surprised when her Observation Haki enveloped the two little ones.
Because both Naruto and Sasuke have generated Chakra within their bodies at this moment.
Furthermore, Naruto's Chakra reserves are significantly greater than Sasuke's.
"I can't even beat two brats?"
Lin Yan internally complained.
At that moment, his Observation Haki triggered a sudden sense that someone was approaching.
Without even looking, Lin Yan knew who the two figures rushing up from behind were.
One is Uchiha, and the other Shisui Uchiha.
The two quickly arrived behind Lin Yan. Seeing Sasuke and Naruto meditating and refining their Chakra under the tree, Itachi jumped down.
"Sasuke, it's time to go home."
"Sorry I'm late, brother."
Shisui landed beside Lin Yan.
"It's already getting dark..."
"You guys are taking way too long to report your work."
Lin Yan complained.
"I'd like to have a friendly spar with you."
Shisui suddenly spoke and looked at Lin Yan intently.
"Um?"
Lin Yan was taken aback, thinking the other person was joking.
However, seeing the serious expression in Shisui's eyes, Lin Yan slowly put away her smile.
"Want to challenge me?"
Lin Yan smiled faintly, glancing down at Itachi, who was talking to Sasuke under the tree.
"But why?"
"I've heard that your physical skills are very strong; the secrets of the ' Six Powers ' are even comparable to the Body Flicker Technique."
"I've never seen this kind of martial art before, and I'd like to experience it for myself."
Shisui replied.
"Is that so...?"
"Alright."
"Let's go then, let's warm up a bit and whet our appetites."
"I can eat a few more bowls of ramen for dinner later."
Lin Yan smiled and leaped into the air.
Without seeing how he moved, he suddenly found himself in the very center of the training field below.
That location is at least 230 meters away from here.
Seeing this, Shisui knew that Lin Yan was trying to intimidate him.
He gave a light snort and activated the Instantaneous Movement Technique without saying a word.
In the blink of an eye, Shisui's figure landed opposite Lin Yan.
"Your speed is quite impressive. Is that the Instantaneous Movement Technique?"
"Yes, I can teach you if you want to learn."
"But before that, you have to defeat me first."
Shisui smiled.
I think we should forget about it.
"I'm only slightly better at taijutsu; I can't compare to the myriad ninjutsu techniques of you ninjas."
Lin Yan shook her head modestly.
His humble demeanor surprised Shisui.
But Shisui didn't let his guard down; instead, he became even more serious.
"Based on my many years of experience in carrying out missions, people who are humble like this are usually very capable!"
Shisui thought to himself silently.
