Question, do you know the names of the seven chakras?YinWell, sort of.VictorHow many do you know?Yin(pacing)I can't remember.VICTORThere are seven chakras in the human body. With the first chakra being Ne chakra. The second is Senkotsu and the rest are in this order Mizōchi, Shinzō, Nodo, Daisan'nome, and Kuraun. Any questions?YINWhy did you say it in Japanese?VICTORThey were the first people to enlighten me on the seven chakras.YINOh...VictorI'll teach you the rest of the chakras but we'll focus on Ne chakra which is translated as Root chakra.YinOk. But what makes this useful? Shouldn't I learn how to become a ninja or something?VictorYin, Ne chakra is the first chakra, located at the base of our body. You can think of Ne chakra as all that keeps us grounded.Yin (V.O.)Why would I need to learn any of this?VictorIt's need for our survival instincts and also to our basic needs.YIN (V.O.)Why is he trying to tell me something I already know? This boring...VICTOR (V.O.)When I first heard this it sounded extremely boring as well.YIN(rubs his temple)Where you in my head? How are you doing that?VICTORSorta of... To answer your other question. I'm at peace with my inner self.YINWhat?VICTORSimply means that I have no conflict inside of me. That could cloud my judgement. Which grants me telepathy.YIN That's kind of cool.VICTOR(smiles)And fun.YINUm... what's our lesson for today?VICTORYou must work on your stance. Look at the tree for instances and how it's rooted.

His stance is still off.VICTORFeel the stability and strength rising from the ground.Victor demonstrates the earth-based stance. Yin follows Victor's lead, planting his feet firmly on the ground.

Victor observes Yin stance. Victor pokes Yin. But he doesn't budge. Victor pushes Yin. Yin falls into the pond.VICTORYou must be more focused.YIN (V.O.)I could if you weren't such a...

I will try to be more patient with you.YIN(bows)Thank, you Sensei.VictorSo, Yin what are your goals?YinTo become the best.VictorAt what?Yin(scratches his hair)I want to be the best ninja, warrior, or an emperor.VictorWhy must all of them be entangled in violence?YinI would rather die fighting for my home than die a cowardly death.VictorWhat if there is peace?YinThere will always be evil.VictorBut sometimes, you must make compromises to save the people you love.YinMaybe you're right. But why should we step on enemy territory? Just to kill one man.VictorThere is only one division available for this mission, and that is yours. And Hibuaca must be brought to justice.
