The smell of blood on the training ground seemed to be diluted by an even weirder atmosphere.
The children who were biting each other like mad dogs yesterday subconsciously distanced themselves at this moment, their eyes full of vigilance and scrutiny. When they looked at their opponents, they no longer simply measured their height and weight, but began to observe the opponent's dominant hand, the rhythm of their breathing, and the erratic movements of their eyes.
Senju Chen (Kirisame Ryo)'s theory that "the weak can defeat the strong" is like a stone thrown into a stagnant pool, the ripples it stirs are spreading rapidly.
"Very good, it seems your brains are finally starting to work."
Senju Chen still looked like he hadn't woken up, lazily Earth Flow walked to the center of the field.
"The previous lesson was just an appetizer. It tells you that fighting is not just about strength." He paused and looked around the room, "Today's second lesson is called 'Intelligence and Camouflage'."
"In a real mission, your enemy will not have 'I am strong' or 'I am a rookie' written on their face. Intelligence is the first factor that determines life and death. Disguise is the best weapon to obtain intelligence and protect yourself."
His voice was not loud, but it made all the children prick up their ears.
"From today on, you must not only train for combat, but also learn to observe." The corner of Senju Chen's mouth raised a nasty curve, "You need to remember all the information about everyone around you - his living habits, eating tastes, which hand he uses, whether he snores when sleeping, how many times he has to go to the toilet a day, and even what mantra he uses when talking."
The children looked at each other with confusion written on their faces. Why do you remember this?
"You two, come out." Senju Chen pointed at two boys of average strength in the crowd.
The two of them walked out tremblingly.
"From now on, I will assign several people to use Transformation Technique to exchange identities." Senju Chen's words were like thunder on the ground, "You must use his name, live in his bed, and imitate his words and deeds."
"You have all day. Before the class starts tomorrow, I will let everyone identify. Whoever is found out first will be punished."
"As for punishment..."
Senju Chen grinned, showing his white teeth, but that smile made everyone shudder.
"It's very simple. There is a confinement room on the third underground floor of High Tower. I will let you... stay in it with a recently deceased corpse for one night."
Boom!
Fear, like an invisible giant wave, instantly flooded the entire training ground.
Spend a night with a corpse?!
The cold touch, the smell of decay, and the most intuitive fear of death... Just imagining it is enough to cause these immature children to have a mental breakdown!
This is no longer training, this is torture! It is destroying a person's will!
Looking at those little faces that were instantly pale as paper, Senju Chen felt no emotion at all.
Only extreme fear can give birth to an extreme desire for survival. How can we make them into the most perfect "spies" embryos without forcing them to a desperate situation?
The investigation of Kirigakure is in full swing, and all Special Assassination and Tactical Squad are looking for a boy about 15 years old.
From the moment he rescued Mei Terumi, he knew that he would be exposed, but Senju Chen didn't take it to heart at all. What about the risk of his own exposure?
As for my own set of top-notch skins produced by White Zetsu, not to mention the natives like Kirigakure, as long as I want to disguise myself, even when Ōtsutsuki Clan comes, I have to be stunned and ask if they are my relatives.
White Zetsu's replica disguise was able to perfectly replicate Chakra's aura and body shape. Coupled with his own disguise skills, it can be said that there are no flaws.
Let the people from Kirigakure slowly search for him. Even if they turn the whole Land of Water over, they will never find him Senju Chen.
To put it another way, what if they were really lucky enough to find me?
If you can't beat it, just change the skin, just play a dress-up game.
Therefore, he now continues to complete his great cause of "talent market development" in High Tower without any pressure.
At this time, his gaze inadvertently swept across the corner of the venue.
A boy who was much taller than his peers was leaning against the wall alone, with fierce eyes like a lone wolf. He did not participate in any discussion, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him. In those sharp eyes, there was only a disregard for everyone and an almost substantial murderous intention.
This boy's name is Zabuza Momochi.
In Senju Chen's mind, the man named "Demon" standing on the bridge in the original book in the heavy fog suddenly appeared.
And, before the man died, in the heavy snow, the dialogue said, "I really want to... go to the same place with you..."
He is another tragic character in the original work.
This is a player who can compete 50-50 with Kakashi in the early stage.
The corners of Senju Chen's mouth raised slightly.
It would be too wasteful for such a good seedling to die in the hands of Kakashi. Rather than letting him become a stepping stone for others to grow up, it is better... to become a knife in one's own hand.
I still have a complete set of Kirigakure Ninja Blade, Kirigakure Ninja Blade and Kirigakure Ninja, hehehe...
Such a good seedling... you need more money... no, you need more training.
Senju Chen complained silently in his heart.
The day's training ended in an extremely strange atmosphere.
All the children were frantically observing, imitating, and testing. The boy who was chosen to swap identities even imitated the other boy's slightly splayed feet in order to avoid being discovered.
The boy who was imitated desperately wanted to find out the other person's flaws, because it related to whether he would sleep in bed tonight or next to the corpse.
In the evening, the results were announced.
One of the boys was pointed out by more than a dozen children at the same time because he subconsciously avoided the fish that he hated but the other boy liked very much while eating.
"Take him down." Senju Chen waved his hand without any mercy.
Two tall assistant teachers immediately stepped forward and dragged the boy, who was crying for mercy and leaking urine and feces, like a dead dog, to the underground solitary room.
The shrill screams echoed over the training ground, leaving all the remaining children speechless and their bodies shaking like chaff.
The look they looked at Senju Chen had changed from pure fear to fear like facing a god or demon.
This instructor is a real devil!
Senju Chen ignored these glances, walked slowly to the corner, and stood in front of Zabuza Momochi.
Zabuza raised his head, his wolf-like eyes staring at him, and his hand holding the knife tightened.
"You want to kill me?" Senju Chen Gate of Opening said bluntly.
Zabuza was stunned for a moment, nodded subconsciously, then seemed to react, and immediately shook his head.
He didn't want to kill Senju Chen, but he wanted to kill everyone here, use the knife in his hand to cut off these damn rules, and graduate from this hell.
Senju Chen was almost amused by the other party's actions, but he still suppressed his laughter and continued.
"Killing is very simple. Some people kill to become stronger, some kill to survive, some kill for fame and wealth, and some kill for women."
"Ask yourself, why are you killing people? Only by figuring this out can you become a qualified ninja."
After saying that, Senju Chen didn't look at him again, turned around and left, leaving only his back.
Isn't killing just to live? What else could it be for?
He lowered his head and looked at the knife in his arms, and then looked at the direction Senju Chen was leaving. For the first time in those fierce eyes, a light called "thinking" appeared beyond murderous intent.
