KOW Chapter 26 Dialogues with the World

Without a doubt, what Qin Yi lacked most at this moment were these basic C-rank Ninjutsu. While they might not be as powerful as B-rank or A-rank techniques, they are the simplest Ninjutsu to illustrate the relationship between Chakra and Ninjutsu.

For Qin Yi, the simplicity of C-rank Ninjutsu was like opening a textbook, allowing him to learn about Ninjutsu.

"Qin Lin, what is your Chakra nature?"

Turning to Qin Lin, who was staring at the Ninjutsu scroll with a bewildered expression, Qin Yi asked.

"Fire nature," Qin Lin replied.

"Hmm, and you, Yang Yi?" Qin Yi asked again.

"Water nature!" Yang Yi responded.

Nodding, Qin Yi scanned the scroll to check the Water and Fire nature Ninjutsu. There weren't many Ninjutsu for each of the five elements on the scroll, and it was clear they had been carefully selected.

Family and system-specific Ninjutsu were not recorded. It could be said that these were the most basic Ninjutsu, and also the easiest to learn.

"I will teach you both these two types of Ninjutsu later," Qin Yi said softly.

Both Generals were overjoyed, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement.

"Gandalf, take a look at the Lightning Ninjutsu."

Qin Yi handed the scroll to Gandalf.

After receiving the scroll, Gandalf quickly skimmed it and began experimenting. As he did, the energy inside his body seemed to stir. Just as the Ninjutsu was about to be released, Gandalf stopped.

"These are easy to learn, but their power is weak," Gandalf said.

"Yes, these Ninjutsu are the most basic and simple. In battle, sometimes they are less useful than a weapon in hand."

"But if you're building a foundation, they're actually quite good."

Qin Yi smiled.

Afterward, Qin Yi spent about a quarter of an hour copying down the Water and Fire Ninjutsu from the scroll, then tossed the notes to the two Generals to practice.

"Before anything else, you must master the Kawarimi no Jutsu (Substitution Jutsu) thoroughly and be able to use it."

He reminded the two Generals seriously.

In the Hokage world, the Kawarimi no Jutsu (Substitution Jutsu) was immensely useful. If the tactic was right, a skilled user of these three basic Ninjutsu could easily defeat an enemy.

Unconsciously, the half-moon reached its peak in the sky, and the room was left silent, with only Qin Yi remaining.

He silently examined the Ninjutsu, studying the hand seals on the scroll.

The dark characters seemed to take on different meanings and mysteries in his mind.

"Chakra is stored energy within human cells, and everyone has different natures. These hand seals are the medium that guides the internal energy!"

"In terms of release, they are somewhat similar to Gandalf's staff."

Qin Yi's gaze flickered.

"Rat (Ne), Ox (Ushi), Tiger (Tora), Hare (U), Dragon (Tatsu), Snake (Mi), Horse (Uma), Ram (Hitsuji), Monkey (Saru), Bird (Tori), Dog (Inu), Boar (I)."

"They divided the seals into these twelve types. Each has its own hand seal movement, and different combinations can release different seals."

"When the seal is formed, it draws out the Chakra from the body, releasing Ninjutsu with varying power."

"The seals, in essence, are a kind of medium to release and amplify the external form of Chakra!"

As he continued studying, Qin Yi's understanding grew clearer.

The twelve seals could be seen as a unique script. This script, when combined in different ways, could explain the essence of this world's strength. It was like the incantations of elves in some Western fantasy worlds—one used words to cast spells, while the other used movements.

"This order represents Chakra's nature, this one is an amplification, and this one represents shape transformation."

As his understanding of the seals rapidly deepened, Qin Yi's mood became more joyful.

That night, Qin Yi did nothing else—he didn't practice the Ninjutsu on the scroll but instead sought to understand and grasp them.

The twelve seals, and their countless combinations, formed a language that explained the essence of the world's strength. This slow revelation of the world's mysteries, seeing the beauty of the scene in front of him, made him excited.

He had fully understood the seals as a form of written language to communicate with the world's energy and tried different combinations to understand them.

"These two seals together should release a small fireball."

"These three seals are meant to form a particular shape or figure."

"These two seals are for rushing forward, increasing speed."

Gradually, Qin Yi realized that the twelve seals could combine into countless meanings, showcasing the World's Strength in different forms and natures to the world.

As the night passed, by the time morning came, Qin Yi was still full of energy, studying and evaluating the different hand seals in his mind.

By around 8 or 9 in the morning, Qin Yi suddenly smiled, and then the smile widened, followed by loud laughter.

"Hahaha, I see now!"

"Just like the basic characters of Chinese or English in my previous life, there are only so many, but with different arrangements and combinations, they can produce different meanings!"

"The seals are the same. The arrangement must be precise; it must be understood by the world, otherwise, it's just a chaotic mess of words!"

"Once I understand this principle, I can develop Ninjutsu on my own."

He laughed loudly, feeling excited and thrilled, but also astonished by his own talent.

Ordinary people might see twelve seals, but they wouldn't be able to understand this principle, and it would be impossible for them to develop Ninjutsu.

Only true geniuses and Ninjutsu research enthusiasts would seek to explore the truth of the world.

"Now, let me try."

With a serious expression, Qin Yi closed his eyes and began to think in his mind.

"Distance— unlimited. Chakra output— also unlimited. And the shape— let it be a fire dragon!"

"Seal combination— Rat, Ox, Dragon, Hare"

With a flash, Qin Yi had already appeared by the small lake in the courtyard.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and quickly performed the hand seals.

"Swish swish!"

In an instant, the four seals were completed.

"Katon- Dai Ka Ryū no Jutsu (Fire Release- Grand Fire Dragon Technique!)"

His mouth inflated sharply, and Qin Yi exhaled a powerful blast.

"Roar!"

The sound of a fire dragon's roar echoed through the small courtyard. Ahead, on the lake's surface, a blazing red Roaming Dragon shot out.

At that moment, Gandalf and the two Generals, hearing the noise, came out and immediately saw this scene.

"What is this?!"

The three stared in shock with wide eyes, witnessing the fire dragon that was at least ten meters long, its body trembling.

The fire dragon only lasted for three seconds before dissipating into the air.

At this time, Qin Yi was filled with excitement. Even though the Chakra had been completely depleted in those three seconds, his heart was undeniably thrilled.

"So this is it! The so-called seals are the language through which we communicate with the world!"

"Once you understand the seals, you can master the World's Strength!"

The fire dragon just now had used up all the Chakra in his body. The King's Strength, after a night, had only recovered about one-tenth of its capacity, and the recovery speed was incredibly slow.

But no matter what, it couldn't compare to the discovery he had made!

"Talent, insight, and understanding the language of Ninjutsu."

"All three are essential!"

Qin Yi looked up and laughed aloud.
