The days of being a puppeteer in Konoha

Chapter 27: Sharpening the Tools First

As soon as Hideki finished speaking, the whole workshop exploded.

The little ninjas couldn't sit still and rushed forward to take a closer look at the Buddha statue.

Since it was not a formal class, Hideki did not stop them. Instead, he was very considerate and handed them a few magnifying glasses.

The three views of the little ninjas were therefore even more impacted.

It looked fine from a distance just now, but after they got a magnifying glass to observe it, they found that this Buddha statue was so detailed to an insane degree!

There are even many places that cannot be seen without a magnifying glass, but Mr. Kimura still made them in great detail.

And it took Mr. Kimura only a dozen seconds to complete such a fine wood carving with such meticulous details! ?

Is this justified?

"Teacher, how did you do that?"

A student couldn't help but ask.

Hideki said modestly:

"In fact, the Buddha statue is already inside this piece of wood. I just removed the unnecessary parts..."

The unfathomable speech made the little ninjas burst into admiration again.

At the same time, some students felt a little ashamed.

Because they were either very thoughtful or had their families remind them, they had already guessed that Mr. Kimura had invited them to visit the workshop with the idea of ​​having them join the workshop.

So they have all made up their minds to swallow the bait and spit out the hook, and it is impossible for them to work.

But when they saw this miniature Thousand-armed Buddha statue, all their thoughts disappeared instantly...

Just like the name of the Chakra Workshop technique.

Mr. Kimura is a walking workshop himself, how could he possibly covet their bodies?

The reason why a workshop was established to teach them such amazing skills is naturally the same as the puppetry class. It is another good deed by the selfless Mr. Kimura!
So it was not Sensei Kimura who begged them to come to the workshop to work, but they begged the teacher to keep the workshop open and give them the opportunity to learn this magical ninjutsu.

After all, even without that miraculous final form, the previous series of chakra tools alone was enough for them to join the workshop regardless of everything.

Because once you learn this set of ninjutsu, it can not only be used for handicrafts, but also can be used to deal with various combat situations.

For them who suffer from having too few ninjutsu and poor adaptability, this technique is really a timely help!

Just by learning this set of ninjutsu, they would still make a profit even if they had to spend all their spare time in the workshop.

Seeing that everyone was becoming enthusiastic about joining the workshop, Hideki's pain in the brain eased a lot.

Yes, in fact, making this proportional mini Thousand-Armed Buddha statue was not as easy as everyone imagined for Hideki.

Not only had he consumed a large amount of chakra just now, but he had also secretly performed the Shadow Clone Technique, letting the shadow clone hide behind the podium and assist the original body through the brainstorming technique, so that he could make the perfect Thousand-Armed Buddha statue so quickly.

The reason for doing this is to paint a big picture so that everyone can join the workshop willingly.

But judging by everyone's enthusiastic expressions now, his hard work has not been in vain.

Then, Hideki naturally had to strike while the iron was hot and further enhance everyone's sense of belonging to the workshop by teaching this technique.

So he took back the Buddha statue and placed it on the table, then clapped his hands and said:
"Okay, we've seen it all, everyone please go back to your seats."

"Since time is limited, today we will first explain how to make a basic chakra carving knife."

"As for the other tools, I will continue to teach them once everyone has fully mastered the use of the Chakra Carving Knife."

The young ninjas all agreed excitedly, happy that they would master a new and useful ninjutsu.

However, they all failed to realize one problem.

That is because the teacher did not set a fixed teaching time. If they don't want to miss the day of teaching this technique, they will probably have to come to this workshop as soon as they have time...

……

So in the following time, Hideki began to explain how to use chakra to make the most basic carving knife blade.

Unlike other teachers who rely on their own thinking or sudden enlightenment, Hideki's teaching is incredibly detailed and specific. He directly drew a big palm on the blackboard and marked the distribution of chakra points on the palm.

At the same time, Hideki gave the little ninjas clear instructions on how much chakra each acupoint should release and what part of the blade these chakras should form. It was all done with just the help of his hands.

Of course, it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that just having hands is enough.

Hideki's teaching method of quantifying and making everything concrete can indeed reduce the time students spend on exploring and thinking.

But at the same time, it also requires students to have a certain degree of chakra control.

This is exactly why Hideki's workshop, which is clearly short-staffed, only invites children with chakra control above five points to visit the workshop.

However, for children who score five or six points, even with such detailed guidance, it is still quite difficult to learn this technique.

After all, the principle of the entire technique is derived from the chakra scalpel. No matter how simplified it is, the learning difficulty must be at least C level.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that there are so many S-level forbidden techniques and A-level ninjutsu in the original work, as if they are everywhere.

Even the Sandaime was despised because his best Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet Technique was only B-rank, and his reputation was damaged for a long time.

But in fact, in the real ninja world, C-level ninjutsu, which is difficult for a Chunin to learn, is the real mainstream, and it is a powerful weapon that can change the outcome of a battle.

So for these kids who aren't even Genin, this technique is still way beyond their scope...

Of course, this was also within Hideki's expectations, as he had already thought of a solution.

So Hideki walked down from the podium and began to teach the little ninjas how to perform magic.

Here, "hand in hand" is not an adjective, but a real description.

Hideki actually took the hands of the little ninjas one by one and taught them step by step.

During this process, Hideki also used the spider-sense technique from his palms.

Countless thin chakra threads wrapped around the little ninja's palm without leaving a trace, continuously providing various data like the most sophisticated monitor.

Therefore, Hideki was able to monitor the little ninja's learning progress in real time, and he could always give insightful suggestions:
"Shiranui-san, the amount of chakra released from your Shangyang acupoints is too little. They are responsible for constructing the core part of the blade spine, so your blade has not been able to take shape..."

"Nohara-san, you have the opposite problem to Genma. The blade has been formed, but because the Zhongchong point releases more chakra, it has become a dull blade."

"Xiuhi-san, what's the matter that you don't understand again... Here? Wait, didn't I remember teaching you just now? Why don't you understand it again..."

……

In the next few hours, Hideki continued to teach step by step like this.

And the little ninjas finally experienced what it felt like to cheat.

Because with the help of Mr. Kimura, the portable grandfather, this group of ninja school students actually mastered the C-level ninjutsu, which was supposed to be difficult for a Chunin, at an astonishing speed.

Except for Yuhi Hong who often forgets the technique and needs the teacher to teach her step by step, most of the students have entered the next stage and started to try out the chakra carving knives they just made on wooden blocks.

At this point, everyone finally understood what it meant to sharpen the knife before chopping wood.

This chakra carving knife that they made with their own hands was just like a part of the body as the teacher said, and they were able to use it with ease in no time.

Therefore, some talented students have already become quite good at carving wood, and have even begun to challenge themselves to replicate the toys they had previously chosen.

Seeing this, Hideki nodded slightly with relief.

Although it was just a faltering first step, the toy workshop finally started to get on the right track.

It seems that before the end of the tour, quite a few people will be able to create toys that are barely passable.

Although the efficiency is a bit worrying, Hideki doesn't care.

Anyway, the production of ordinary toys like this can actually be completely done by machines and assembly lines, so there is no need to bother them.

The reason why we asked everyone to make toys is actually just to give them more motivation to practice.

When everyone learns how to use chakra to draw basic rune spells, that’s when they can really be used…
