Escape running

Because #ninjutsu is not a #martial #art, #fighting against an #enemy is a last resort, and the #shuriken (#ninja #star) weapon was one method of that self-defense. Since the job of a ninja was to bring back information, there are many #skills for escaping.

Here are some of them:

🥷Fire escape - using fires and explosives (flaming #arrows, embedded fires, #firecrackers) to confuse the enemy

🥷Water escape - hiding oneself in water

🥷Smoke escape - explode a smoke #bomb to make a #smokescreen

🥷Metal escape - Using thrown stones or shuriken to escape

🥷Stealth - hiding in grass (hiding in tree leaves), hiding in shadows (#Kannon #kakure), pretending to be a stone (#uzura-kakure), others
