Traditional Japanese culture is famous for its samurai and ninja spirit.
Who really is a ninja?
Ninja is a name that refers to individuals or mercenary organizations specializing in secret activities that have existed in Japanese history.
Ninja missions were probably similar to those of today’s intelligence agents, including: sabotage, infiltration, assassination, or raids in certain cases.
Lords trust ninjas for unpublicized missions because their movements are mysterious and extremely loyal in serving their masters.
The art of ninjutsu and the qualities of a good ninja
Besides training to achieve a healthy body, intelligence and powerful combat knowledge, in addition to undergoing arduous training courses, ninjas also need to master ninjutsu.
Ninjutsu is the art of dexterity and patience – two foundations for strategy and tactics in ninja combat.
Thanks to practicing ninjutsu, ninjas seem to have the ability to do unimaginable things such as jumping, flying over high towers, etc. However, in reality, they all have to rely on teamwork and using cover tricks.
Ninja stealth techniques are also very famous.
History of ninjas
It is difficult to determine the origin of ninjas, many guesses say that ninjas appeared around the 14th century.
Due to the nature of their mission, most ninjas hide very well, so there are very few records about their history.
Until now, most of the ancient techniques of ninjas are legendary, but the way of operation and training is still more or less adapted by military and police forces in many places around the world.
