Konoha: Who says that hunters can't play in the ninja world?

After an unfair deal, Kibatarō became the leader. It is said that the one who knows the enemy best is always the enemy's opponent. Kibatarō had suffered a great loss from this carnivorous bird, so he naturally knew the habits of this bird very well.

"Look, that's where those slugs like to build their nests." Kibatarō pointed to the cliff that was hundreds of meters high and almost vertical to the ground, with a sly smile on his face. In his mind, his master would either ignore it or do whatever he wanted to get it. Show him the way today, and this group of slugs will be in trouble. You like to bully people, no, you like to bully squirrels, right? I'll find you a stronger opponent. No matter how good you are at fighting, can you beat a ninja? Hehehe, a devil's horn grew on Kibatarō's head.

"Are you sure?" Feng Jian also clicked his tongue. The cliff was hundreds of meters high, and if he was not strong enough, he would have given up.

"Sure. The cliff holes, protrusions, and places where plants take root on the cliffs are most suitable for building nests." Kibatarō explained it very clearly, and it was obvious that he had really studied this kind of bird.

"Ichiro, you watch me from below to prevent any accidents. I'll go up." Kazama glanced at his companions and decided to go up by himself. Nobuko didn't have the earth escape skill and she was a girl, so she passed. Ichiro was too strong, so rock climbing was not friendly to him. Morning teacher? Forget it, he couldn't be ordered around.

He checked his equipment and threw away all unnecessary weights. In fact, there was nothing to throw away. Feng Jian's equipment was all in the large and small scrolls on his body. His wrists were where the sniper crossbow and compound bow were hidden, so they would not affect Feng Jian's movements.

Rock climbing, I had tried it in Konoha to keep fit, but it was all on familiar terrain. This cliff had no protection at all, and it was an unfamiliar environment. Kazama planned to use the simplest and slowest method, which would be safer.

Spotting the nearest rock protrusion, Fengjian formed seals with his hands: "Earth escape, elevator." Among the earth escape techniques that Fengjian knew, this move had almost no offensive or defensive effects, but it was used the most frequently. This ninjutsu that changed the terrain in a small area was really useful when used as an auxiliary. He slapped his palms on the cliff wall, and the cliff wall seemed to come alive, with protrusions like steps growing out, slanting against the cliff wall. As long as people leaned sideways, they could walk up the cliff wall step by step, which was safe and saved energy.

"See? The biggest difference between you and Fengjian is not your talent, but the thinking you can do when facing a complex external environment. If it were you, your biggest possibility would be to stand on the cliff and move up step by step. But Fengjian did take this approach."

"Teacher, we both use chakra, so Kazama's method is not better than ours, right?" Nobuko was not convinced. Her inferiority complex had long disappeared with the improvement of her strength. In terms of personality, he was the strongest one in Team 6. He was naturally not convinced when Kazama was praised so much in the morning.

"This is the difference between you two, the angles you think about problems. You see, this is a high cliff, and it's a completely unfamiliar environment. Even if you can use chakra to walk on the cliff, but such a cliff has existed for who knows how long, and the surface has long been eroded by wind and rain. It is possible that you will miss a step at any time due to the weathering of the cliff. If you fall down, do you have any way to deal with it? In an unfamiliar environment, it means that the danger here is unknown. You who use chakra to step on the cliff may seem safe, but in fact it also limits your ability to perform. If someone launches an attack from the top of the cliff at this time, what will you do? What if someone uses large-scale ninjutsu to launch a carpet bombing?"

Zao Jian took this opportunity to impart his years of battlefield experience. "Look at Feng Jian again. He has set up the route in advance. Those stairs can be stood on by even an ordinary person. He has created a lot of space for himself to move around. He doesn't have to worry about his feet. Even when facing an attack, he doesn't have to resist it head-on. He has a certain amount of space to dodge. And because it's effortless, his energy can be focused on other places, and he won't lose sight of one thing while focusing on another. Feng Jian has always said that he should do things the way of the ninja, which is true, but today, I want to teach you another sentence. Don't let the ninja's thinking restrict yourself. Thinking from a few more angles can lead to different answers and more unexpected results."

"Hi" x2, the two were half-believing and half-doubting, unable to fully understand, but they did not refute it, but kept it in their hearts, thinking silently, they would remember every word of the morning's instructions in their hearts.

Gradually, many "Z"-shaped stairs appeared on the cliff, which were just enough for one person to wind up. Fengjian could drink some water from time to time and sit down to look at the scenery from the top.

"See? This is the third benefit. You can rest anytime and anywhere and maintain your condition. If you step on it directly, you need to pay attention to the situation under your feet at all times. Your chakra will be consumed. How long can you last on such a large rock wall?"

"Yes" x2.

Feng Jian looked for several places where bird nests might be found. He did find some signs of bird life, even bird nests, but there were only three or two unknown bird eggs. Feng Jian was very upset because he could not tell what the eggs were. He had no choice but to continue climbing.

For several hours, Fengjian stayed on the cliff without coming down. Fortunately, as long as the stairs were built, they would always exist without the need for earth escape to remove them. Otherwise, Fengjian might not be able to hold on.

Birds have been returning to the cliffs one after another, but Fengjian's search is still small compared to the cliffs, and he has not yet found any birds returning to their nests in the places he has checked. But Fengjian has made a new discovery, this is a huge rock cave that is more than one meter high, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and only about one meter deep. In this recessed space, there is a huge bird's nest that almost fills the entire space. There are sounds coming from the bird's nest.

It was not until Fengjian approached and curiously stretched his head that he saw that two of the five eggs had already hatched. The two chicks that made the sound were the ones that had not yet opened their eyes. They were bald and barely recognizable as birds. They closed their eyes and struggled in the rough nest. They looked like they were born only one or two days ago. There was no mother or male bird in the nest, which was a rare thing. Normally, they would not leave the nest for a long time during the incubation period.

He reached out to feel the temperature of the bird's nest. It was still warm. It seemed that the bird had not been away from the nest for long. Feng Jian kept climbing up and didn't notice it. Or maybe Feng Jian was getting closer and closer to the bird's nest, making the big bird feel dangerous, so it was scared and flew away. Whatever the case, there was no big bird in the bird's nest now, so Feng Jian could take the opportunity to watch it to his heart's content.

"Cry~" A long cry that pierced through space suddenly resounded in Fengjian's ears. Fengjian reacted instantly: "Oh no, the big bird is back."

Sure enough, Kazama's approach to the bird's nest made the big bird even more angry, and it swooped down on Kazama like an arrow from a bow. Kazama had open-toed gloves on his hands, which were standard equipment for mid-level and upper-level ninjas. Although Kazama was not at that level yet, he could still prepare it himself.
