Chapter 9 The Unsung Hero

"Not bad, you are making rapid progress, you are indeed a genius."

Shisui appeared behind Kagami at some point, clasping his hands and seeing everything Kagami had just done.

"No, can't compare with Shisui bro."

The name of genius also depends on who he is compared with. Compared with his students in the same class, Kagami is naturally the best. genius, but if you compare it with Shisui, it's far from being the case, at least, that's how it looks at the moment.

"I really know how to talk. I remember that when I met Itachi once, I praised him for his ability. His answer is the same as yours."

No Knowing why, Shisui always likes to associate Kagami with Itachi.

"I'm not Itachi's big brother, and Itachi's big brother is not me."

In half a month, Kagami has not gone to Itachi once, and after that time with Shisui conversation, Kagami discovered that he had been ignoring the fact that he and Itachi had different ideas! Their paths are different, Kagami, as a transmigrator, cannot kill the clan that gave birth to him for a Konoha who has no sense of belonging, his roots are in Uchiha, not in Konoha.

Kagami and Itachi can be friends, even great friends, but it is absolutely impossible to become like-minded friends, at least, before Uchiha Clan Downfall, impossible.

When Kagami said he was not Itachi, he was not referring to his appearance and behavior, but his philosophy. Kagami is reminding Shisui that he will not "become Itachi" and will not put Konoha before Uchiha.

"Of course I know, you're not Itachi."

Kagami misunderstood what Shisui meant. In fact, Shisui was just a simple sense.

"By the way, tomorrow, there is no class at the Academy, right?"

"Well, no class."

"So, are you interested in using Learn something from me tomorrow?"

Kagami's answer without the slightest hesitation.

"Of course I'm interested."

"Then, I'll come to see you tomorrow, wait for me at home."

"Okay, Shisui Brother."

After a few chats, Shisui left. On this day, Shisui did not stay at the training stadium to teach Kagami as usual.

And Kagami stayed alone. After practicing hand seal speed and Nature Transformation for a while, he also went back.

second day.

In a forest.

Shisui hands Kagami a stick of wood.

"What I'm going to teach you today is ninja's tracking and anti-tracking. This is a compulsory course for you in the future. I'll give you a little cooking now, hahaha, after all, that can It's not for an Academy student to study."

Kagami took the wooden branch and looked at it carefully.

"This branch was stepped on, and someone passed by here."

"So, do you know how long ago that person passed by here?"

Of course Kagami can't do it.

"No, I can't do it."

Shisui corrected.

"No, it's not that you can't do it, it's that you can't do it yet. With such a clue, we can only know that someone has passed by here. If you want to know more, you need to look for other Clues, as long as you find enough clues, then you can know what you want to know. Let's go."

Speaking, Shisui walked forward, and Kagami followed.

This is a forest, surrounded by trees, and there are a lot of weeds on the ground. Some clues will become very difficult to find in this kind of venue, but

Kagami eyes slightly narrowed.

"On the other hand, some clues, in this kind of scene, will be very conspicuous, there are some traces, and they can't even be concealed."

Shisui clapped his hands and laughed.

"Yes, Kagami, you're right, so what's the most obvious mark in this scene?"

Shisui walked forward while facing Kagami ask questions.

Kagami had already figured out how to answer, and spoke immediately.

"That's the destruction or disturbance of the scene."

Kagami walked to a weed, those weeds, at a glance, were normal, but if they walked to If you look closely, you will find that some weeds are bent in half, and even more, they are directly and firmly attached to the ground.

"There are a lot of weeds here, so if there are fugitives passing here, it will inevitably destroy the original appearance of these weeds."

Shisui kept going. Nodding, Shisui didn't speak until Kagami had finished speaking.

“Kagami, your mind is very quick, you can quickly judge what clues the fugitives are likely to leave in this kind of scene, but you have overlooked one thing.”

Kagami was taken aback and asked.

"What?"

Shisui pointed to his head.

"That's what the fugitive thinks. Look, there are so many weeds in this forest. It's too obvious. It's obvious that the fugitive doesn't know that if he passes through the ground, he will definitely stay behind.

" Traces, then, Kagami, if you were a fugitive, what would you do?"

Kagami was shocked, pondered, but didn't know what to do, but the next second, the corner of his eye swept a tree inadvertently , Kagami suddenly wanted to understand.

"It's a tree! If I were a fugitive, since I knew that I would inevitably leave traces on the ground, then I would step on the tree and run!"

Kagami almost Forgot, this is Naruto World, not Real World. Everyone jumping between the branches is a common occurrence. In this case, why should the escapees walk on the ground?

Shisui nods.

"Yes, this is very common sense. The clue you just found should be a fugitive disguise. This kind of simple disguise is generally used to deceive some ninjas who are performing tracking missions for the first time. ."

Kagami was a little sorry, but he still said his thoughts seriously.

"But, Shisui brother, will the fugitives really go from the ground to the other direction, so that we thought it was a false clue, but it was a real clue?"

Shisui lightly said with a smile.

"It's also possible what you said, but you have to understand a truth. Jumping on a branch is faster than simply running on the ground. As a fugitive, no matter what he uses tricks, his ultimate goal is to escape as soon as possible! Under such circumstances, the choice of jumping on the branches is naturally far better than running on the ground."

Kagami frowns, seems to want to Say something.

"But"

Shisui reached out to stop Kagami's words.

"Don't think too much, I know that it is possible for the fugitives to take advantage of our idea and keep running away. But Kagami, you have to know, in this world, anything is possible, everything is possible There is no absolute. If you want to think about all the possibilities, do you have enough time? You know, the fugitives are running away every minute and every second. You need to catch him as soon as possible. Secondly, even if you consider all the possibilities Think about it, do you have enough manpower? To eliminate all probability, how many people need to be sent? is it possible that, in order to catch one person, does the village need to send half of the ninja?

The best The solution is to pick out one or a few escape routes that you think have the greatest probability, so that you can complete the tracking mission as soon as possible."

Kagami was taught.

“Brother Shisui, I see, it’s my fault.”

Shisui laughed heartily.

"No, you're not wrong. If you don't make a mistake, I'll be troubled. First of all, I don't know what to teach you. It's because you made a mistake that I have something to teach you. Ah, hahaha. Okay, let's move on."

Next, Shisui took Kagami along and taught Kagami a lot of tracking and anti-tracking knowledge.

In the evening, Shisui and Kagami were sitting by a river, building a fire and grilling fish.

Shisui had a look of nostalgia in his eyes.

"You know what? The day I taught Itachi ninja tracking and anti-tracking, in the evening, we were sitting by the river and eating fish. I really miss it. Guess what. , Itachi at that time, what was the first sentence when he saw me lighting the fire to grill the fish?"

Kagami said helplessly.

"Can't guess"

Shisui said with a big smile.

"Haha, he said at the time, [The textbook says that it is strictly forbidden to use fire when camping at night, but if you do this, it means there is something else hidden?] It's really cute. At that time, I just wanted to be with him. It's just eating fish together, there's no secret, there's only one thing I have to say, that is, I felt very good at the time. I felt unexpectedly relaxed when I ate with someone who could relax me. I was just being lazy for a while. , now too, so don't ask me the same question. hahaha."

Kagami asked unexpectedly.

"Brother Shisui, isn't there anyone who can relax and eat?"

Shisui smiled gently.

"Yes, you and Itachi."

Kagami was silent for a while, then cautious and solemn spoke.

"What about the others?"

Shisui looked down slightly, and said a little lonely.

"I'm in Anbu, Kagami, do you know what Anbu is?"

Kagami instantly understood, what is Anbu?

"Assassination Tactical Special Forces, or Anbu for short."

Shisui laughed at himself.

"Yeah, in a unit whose purpose is assassination, how dare I relax completely?"

Kagami spoke in a hurry, not even daring to relax while eating. This kind of life Isn't it tormenting?

"But, if that's the case, why, Shisui, you can back out"

Shisui interrupted Kagami.

"no, Kagami, you know what, what I want to be is an unsung hero who keeps the peace in secret, Anbu Now, maybe not so good, but I can you can laugh at me, maybe it's me Overestimate one's capabilities, I hope to change the current appearance, Anbu was never assassinated for the sake of assassination, it must be assassinated for the sake of peace! I want to change it! I know that now Anbu can't be called the nameless who secretly guards peace Hero, but that's why I want to change it!

If everyone runs away from Anbu, who's going to change it?

Don't worry, even if you can't Change it, and I won't let it change me. Shisui will always be Shisui, who Shisui wants to be, and will always be the unsung hero who secretly guards peace. This will never change. After all, I am also your big Brother, you can't lose face."

Chapter 674, facing Danzo's roots, Shisui said that he thinks that those who guard peace in secret are called Jonin.
