So what is the chakra network anyway? 191 00:19:15,550 --> 00:19:16,910 Don't you know anything? 192 00:19:17,530 --> 00:19:19,370 Here, I will explain it. 193 00:19:20,010 --> 00:19:24,530 It is the complex system of circulatory canals that distribute chakra throughout 194 00:19:24,530 --> 00:19:29,210 the body, similar to a person's vascular system, the veins and arteries that 195 00:19:29,210 --> 00:19:30,210 carry blood. 196 00:19:30,250 --> 00:19:31,430 I get it. 197 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,100 Only these veins carry chakra, not blood. 198 00:19:34,360 --> 00:19:35,360 Uh, basically. 199 00:19:35,860 --> 00:19:39,900 Furthermore, the chakra network is so closely interwoven with all the most 200 00:19:39,900 --> 00:19:44,080 internal organs that they are virtually one and the same. Therefore, when the 201 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,980 network is attacked, these organs suffer damage as well. 202 00:19:47,260 --> 00:19:48,260 Wow, Lee! 203 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,000 How'd you ever get to be so smart? 204 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,740 Idiot! How'd you ever get to be a good ni - 205 00:20:04,360 --> 00:20:06,120 No wonder he's worked up. 206 00:20:06,380 --> 00:20:10,420 He's watching his oldest competitor and rival, Neji. 207 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,220 But Sensei, how do they know where to strike their opponent? 208 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,800 I mean, the chakra network is invisible to the eye, right? 209 00:20:20,140 --> 00:20:22,960 So how do they know exactly where to land their blows? 210 00:20:23,780 --> 00:20:25,860 You're forgetting their Byakugan. 211 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,400 There are few things invisible to those eyes. 212 00:20:35,500 --> 00:20:39,540 What's more, when they strike a blow, it's a little different from a normal 213 00:20:39,540 --> 00:20:44,880 attack. A small but intense burst of their own chakra is released from their 214 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:50,360 hand. It drills into the opponent's body, directly attacking his chakra 215 00:21:32,759 --> 00:21:35,560 Thank you 216 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:45,080 for 217 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:56,700 watching! 218 00:21:58,379 --> 00:21:59,860 I love you. 219 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:04,680 No matter how many times she's knocked down, she gets back on her feet. She 220 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,060 never gives up. Kind of like you. 221 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,040 Huh? Maybe that's why she's always looking at you. Or could there be 222 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,400 reason? Uh, search me. 223 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,720 Next time, a failure stands tall. 224 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,480 Go for it, Hinata!
