Now, for your first ninjutsu lesson, please stealthily dart under the nearest table, and practice reciting the following:
"Ah ha, you will never find me here, under the table, where I am hiding secretly, where you will never find me...I wonder where my nemesis Kali of the Nine Demons is hiding for she is my nemesis and I must truly defeat her in order to gain the respect of my ancestors?"
*mouth keeps moving for a few seconds*
After that, I'll teach you koppojutsu, which is the art of breaking your opponent's bones with either withering glances and devastating wit, or actual blows with your fingers, whichever you prefer.
Remember, ninjas were very witty, especially during the Meiji period, where they had to deal with largely humorless samurais.
