[The video feed clicks on to show this young ninja grinning exuberantly. He's happy to be on the ground instead of falling from the sky into different timelines this time around.]

Greetings, people of Luceti! My name is Rock Lee. I am a ninja from the village of Konoha, and I am also known as the "Green Beast of Konoha". I have been here for around two months now, and I am ashamed to realize that I have never made a proper introduction over the journal. Please forgive me for being so impolite. I assure you all that, as I have served Konoha in the past, here I shall also risk my life to protect any of you from threats, to the greatest of my abilities!

Although most of my time is dedicated to my intense and vigorous study, being caught in the springtime of youth has also made me inclined to constantly seek out new bonds to form with comrades. I anticipate many a new friend, so please converse with me! Lastly, let me tell you my 'way of the ninja': I believe that when it comes to abilities, "hard work" can overcome "genius"! Please, tell me what you think about it.

[He then flashes the camera a nice guy pose - a thumbs up accompanied by a shining smile.]

[He just... breathes heavily for several moments, not knowing what to say at all. Then he panics and cuts off the feed.]

[Lee can be come across almost anywhere, as his daily jogs take him all over the place. He will spend a majority of the day training at the Battle Dome, however. Feel free to observe and approach him as he constantly sets up new simulations for himself. All this simulated training is the closest to the effect of an addictive drug that he'll be experiencing.]

"Genjutsu" and "Ninjutsu"? [He sort of has a vague idea of what Ninjutsu is, but the other one he's not sure of.] Hm...I'm afraid I'm not too familiar with those tastes myself when it comes to what I know about ninjas.

Let me explain it to you, then, Cilan-kun! Ninja techniques are divided into three branches. "Genjutsu" is the art of illusion, which is mostly deceptive mental techniques. "Ninjutsu" comprises of a variety of ninja arts, many of which draw on elemental power. Both of those branches utilize chakra, the energy within the body, but I have never been able to sufficiently channel my chakra to perform any of them. Instead, I rely solely on the third branch, "taijutsu", which is pure hand-to-hand combar!

Oh, I see now! I never knew that there were different branches of ninja techniques like that...it all sounds very fascinating! [taking notes of this too] Plus, having skills in Taijutsu would certainly be a good thing to have when it comes to being able to defend yourself, I think.

[Sadly, he doesn't know as much knowledge about it himself other than what he's seen of martial arts movies. ^^;;]

It is, of course! I train tirelessly to be as perfect at it as I can! That is why I say that "hard work" can overcome "genius". I hope to perfect taijutsu to the point where I can defeat users of the other two styles, including my fiercest rivals!

Mm, I understand--this dream of yours appears to have an admirable taste, and it's always wonderful to see people work hard towards their goals. I wish you the best of luck in succeeding!

Why thank you, Cilan-kun! I am glad you are appreciative of it. I wish you the best of luck in achieving your own goals as well!
