Cyber Ninjitsu: The upcoming work on Black Dragon Ninjitsu's Emerging Cyberware Doctrine...

 Cyberspace is a difficult and dangerous place. Criminal Hackers are stealing private information and stealing people's money. Though most of the crime is conducted by what is called Social Engineering. I was recently hacked, and it has been difficult to say the least to maintain my work as both a writer and my regular 9 to 5 job, but shying away from adversity won't get anything accomplished. 

At most hacking me only delayed my efforts, but so much has been recovered and my work continues to move forward. We have about a month or maybe 2, before Trump puts tariffs in place against China which will hamper your access to cheap Chinese electronics. 

The whole premise behind Cyber Ninjitsu, is to establish a docturine of ethical hacking for those who have bought thr Black Dragon Ninjitsu series of books. And if you haven't, the free pdf is on Scribd here: (https://www.scribd.com/doc/61198315/32627774-Black-Dragon-Ninjitsu-Home-Study-Course). And I made it available online, using an older version that has less information than the current paid for version. Though, I still reveal how to make ninja flash and smoke bombs, poisons, and herbal medicine. The more up-to-date version was written with the idea of ticking off those frauds who want to argue lineage online, while they LARP ninja jujitsu (taijutsu), and pirate historical information from the published historical ninjutsu documents made available through the hardwork of Anthony Cummins and the Historical Ninjutsu Research Team. These "ninja secrets" are publicly available online for the other "ninja masters" to take elements from for their own (also fraudulent) systems.

Ninjutsu doesn't exist like it did and while many ninja became the root of the Japanese police forces, investigators, and "secret police" for a time, ninjutsu wasn't widely maintained. Like some of the Bushi who became bandits and pirates unable to gain employment as a retainer (samurai), it may have found a place among the criminal underworld. Or, so I was told, but can you really believe a bunch of criminals?

And while many people are blaming Hackers, seeing Hackers as a bunch of criminals and amoral cyber geeks. I see Hackers and hacking as the next phase of modern ninjitsu training and doctrine. So what would make my Cyber Ninjitsu so valuable a tool?

First, Black Dragon Ninjitsu has an extreme small teams combat doctrine in Army of Shadows, which addresses and expands on the maneuver warfare principles of the paid for version of Black Dragon Ninjitsu, as well as a brief study of espionage tactics and doctrine for the ninja student. Yet, as World War Three kicks off with cyber warfare, and such, Black Dragon Ninjitsu as a Strategic-Combat-Survival Art, being more than a martial art, embraces the nee modern battle space of cyberspace and combines it with that extreme small teams doctrine for combat.

Secondly, Black Dragon Ninjitsu's cyber warfare doctrine involves a purpose driven system based on a custom Cyberdeck built from two Raspberry Pi 4s, a Hack RF One portapack, and a LoRa messaging system that allows it operate as a man portable communication, Cyber infiltration, and field base command and control node. And, the cheapest access to the required electronics is in China which will make their acquisition more expensive post Trump Tariffs.

Don't think I am dissing or, against Trump, these Tariffs are a self-imposed injury that requires both the pain and the release of a much more dangerous burden on our nation. The burden of foreign control of American manufacturing. Remember what China did during covid, the government commandering the masks need to help slow or prevent the spread of covid. The company was American owned, but had a cheap manufacturing base in China. And, I don't blame China for doing what it felt was needed to protect it's own people. I blame American companies for moving their manufacturing overseas and the politicians who have made it more acceptable to do so.

It's honorable to see that China was looking out for its citizens, and disgusting to realize that our own politicians were not. Certain things that are critical to the functioning of our modern technological society should be based in our own national borders; things such as medical equipment manufacturing, medicine manufacturing, and, yes, electronics that can maintain, and our communication and emergency support infrastructure. Regardless, I am not made of money and, will use any available resources for my own advantageous ends to have a better position in my life, than I had yesterday. 

So, Cyber Ninjitsu is going to be progressed by the availability of cheap electronics. And, while this void of domestic electronics infrastructure can be filled and should be filled by American companies that can supply its national needs behind the national defense of the country that spends more on national defense than the rest of the world combined, it will likely be filled by Indian companies that produce these products in sweat shops at a far cheaper labor cost than American manufacturers. 

Regardless if you are interested in what I have developed for a cyberwarfare doctrine. I am still working on it; and it is a complex system of custom hardware, custom designed software based on the Kali-Linux OS, and a liberary of Black Dragon Ninjitsu material. This system uses a multi-layered morphic encryption system of my own design called Himitsu (the Japanese word for secret). I've tested it against AI, and even AI can't crack it. With other tools and systems from other GNU-Linix based OSs, for privacy and anonymous networking, and cyber defense. 

I call it Kali-Black OS, Kali-Linux + Black Dragon Ninjitsu = Kali-Black. A Black Hat Hacker custom built and espionage, sabotage, assassination, scout reconnaissance, and extreme small teams guerrilla warfare based OS. The book is based on my own self-study program for learning to use Linux Commands, Ethical Hacking, and Cyber Security to add tools to my toolbox as a 21st Century "ninja."

That said, let make something perfectly clear to you the reader... I don't think any Ninjitsu school is legitimate, and I am a veteran of the US Army as an 11B; imfantryman. I am not going to claim traditional ninjutsu and trach you information that you can get by buying Anthony Cummins translations of historical texts. I already know most people in the martial arts community, especially the MMA goons, think anything ninja is either good fiction or hokey BS...

So I am using that for "smoke screen" to teach those who need it, those who want it. Functional, effective, and both historical and modern, ninja-themed skills related to strategy, combat, and survival training. Let the world think of it as fraudulent and hokey... pretend to be like the other ninjas on the playground, LARPing away with ninja taijutsu/jujitsu, and in their under estimation you will have the advantage of training in something that is so much more than a martial art. 

Stay tooned and look in the secret places for how to get access to Kali-Black.

The Shinobi Survival Manual: A SERE manual for the mosern ninja.

 SERE school is a classified military school that is a requirement for Special Operations Units, fighter, bomber and spy plane pilots, and certain other groups. The CIA may have something similar for their people or they may use the military SERE school. 

SERE stands for Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape. Sounds pretty ninja right? Well I explain to the reader all the core principles of how a ninja infiltrator would operate behind enemy lines, including the resistance part going over tracking and counter tracking, how to escape handcuffs and shackles, primitive and historical ninjutsu methods of survival, along with modern methods of cache supplies. How search patterns work and how to beat them. 

I recently pulled it when I realized that I didn't include the information on evasive driving like how to counter the pit maneuver and the rolling road block. This book contains the Black Dragon Ninja's EDC kit; every day carry kit and how to use it. 

Survival is more than a ninjutsu practitioner's ability to use boy scout level field craft or more advanced bush craft. In a way it is all of that and more. While I am adding to what I already wrote, I will also update Army of Shadows and the Shadow Hunter Manual for Black Dragon Ninjitsu Sniper Program (good thing that the Trump Sniper never read it), as I also address how to hide from night vision and thermal devices. 

Black Dragon Ninjitsu is not a martial art but, a strategic combat survival system that contains elements of martial arts and battlefield strategies and tactics both historical and modern. The ninja is not a member of the now non-existent warrior caste trained in skirmish and guerrilla tactics, though that statement is historically accurate. Nor is the ninja a practitioner of Japanese jujutsu in a black gi. The ninja is an archetype of the elite warrior-assassin-spy who uses low tech, no tech and even 21st Century high-tech tools for a single purpose; to serve the highest standard of self-discipline, self-improvement, self-actualization, and Self-sacrifice. 

That last line may appear selfish, but it is the self that puts everything into motion. It is the self, the individual who begins training and who keeps training and who seeks to improve their training and their skills adding more tools to their proverbial toolbox. So self-discipline is the first step in learning to control the desires and emotions of the individual to resist the trapping of their enemies, including the worst enemy of all their self. Self-improvement is built on the foundation of self-discipline and, self-actualization is the purpose of training; to put training and self-improvement into action and, becoming a hidden influence upon the world around the individual. Finally, comes Self-sacrifice; the willingness to work in service to a higher goal beyond the self. The Individual must be willing to die for what they believe in, but not just die; die in a way that serves and promotes that higher idea. Because whatever you are willing to die for, you must also be willing to live for it too...

Thus, all the self-empowerment is thrown away as you are living and dying for something greater than yourself. In this way, your life and your training becomes an act of selflessness.

Taiso: An understanding of Fitness and Martial Arts.

 Taiso "Body Hardening" sometimes translated as "Physical Conditioning" or "Physical Exercise" and mostly reflects Calisthenics, aerobic exercise, cardiovascular, isometric, and anaerobic exercise that condition the Taijutsu/Jujitsu practitioner to excute their art with Speed, Power, Precision, and Endurance for the Physical Trials of the Art.


However, Taijitsu meaning roughly "Body Art" is sole aspect of Physical Exercise. The application of context must be applied to the name of the Art. So what is the context of the "Body Art"?

Jujitsu or jujutsu, is the "Yielding Art" roughly translated and the inferred context is the "Yielding Art" to Overcome an Adversary in Self-defense or (as where the needs of the Samurai who invented it) Combat. So to can the translation of Taijutsu assume the same inferred context, using the "Body Art" to Overcome an Adversary in Self-defense or Combat. Taijitsu or Taijutsu is the Art of Using the Body to Overcome an Adversary. Taijutsu was defined as another form of Jujutsu by Jugaro Kano the founder of Judo, who helped to promote Japanese Martial Arts to the World outside of Japan.

Taiso, is the Hardening of the Body for this single purpose, and by hardening the body, by conditioning the physical form of the Martial Artist to Give and Take injury and pain, one also conditions the Mind/Heart of the Taijitsuka (Taijutsu practitioner) to Harden the Will and Focus the mind to push through pain, fatigue, and tiredness of the body.
Taiso makes use of stretching, body weight exercises, running, swimming, muscle tension, weighted conditioning, and repetition drills to develop the body to perform at its peak or near peak performance level. This is combined with other forms of training in techniques and tactics, that allow the principles of tactics, and biomechanical functions to maximize your physical ability with physics and mechanics of moving your body to focus mental intent, through physical action.

Though pushed to the extremes of Physical Exertion, the Taijutsu or jujutsuka, is stressed to maintain mental focus, emotional control, and discipline even when feeling exhausted and worn-out. Discipline takes many forms Attention to Detail, to Traditional Customs, Posture, and Personal Hygiene.

Other exercises include simulating life threatening events, which will push the Jujitsu/taijust practitioner to push through pain and fatigue, sleep deprivation, and hunger. During the Winter months Kan Geiko December (usually January) to February from 5 to 7 am, involve Taiso and Randori practice, in cold weather outside. As a form of mental conditioning Kan Geiko forces the student to face and overcome the challenges of training outside in cold winter mornings. Likewise, Shochu Geiko is between June and August, mostly July, from 1 to 3 pm, where students wear heavy duty clothing and train during the hottest hours of the day, so that students are faced with being hot, sweaty, and fatigued engaging in Taiso and Randori. These types of essentric hard style training camps, develop mental toughness since complaining is not allowed and quitting (unless a medical emergency) is seen as a sign of weakness. A minimum of 5 days of Geiko training is required and it can last for up to 30 days.

Shugyo is a kind of "Knight's quest" that Samurai went on. Actually, it was a time before the Samurai became a samurai; as in a loyal retainer of a Lord or Daimyo, shugodai or, higher ranked samurai, spent as a Ronin. The Bushi was to live by performing manual labor, sleeping outside regardless of weather conditions, and engaging in duels and serving Ronin mercenaries in other Domains wars and battles, developing a reputation, and, with luck, being offered the position of Retainer, or Samurai.

In Black Dragon Ninjitsu, it is a period of 3 to 6 months where a student is sent away to train at another school, gym, or dojo. During that time they are to enroll in the school and train in that style. They are permitted to spend a year total on the Shugyo. The "Wandering Ronin" returns to the Dojo and teaches the other students about the other schools style and techniques. It also allows the student to test themselves against people who are trained in the same system.

Shugyo is also the term for Ninja Missions that Students can be sent on to advance their own stealth, infiltration, and intelligence gathering skills. Sometimes these missions are to train in another Martial Arts school and write a Report on the style of Martial Art, techniques and philosophy, the composition of the class students, and the psychological profile of the instructor and their teaching style, as well as elements of style that would benefit a Black Dragon Ninjitsu practitioner and, an assessment of how a Black Dragon Ninjitsu practitioner could exploit the styles weaknesses as they provide a comprehensive list of the styles weaknesses. The student then gets to teach the class what they learned of the style, while they teach their fellow students how to exploit the weaknesses of that style. As well as expressing the dangers of facing someone using that style. 

During the time that the student is teaching this infiltrated styles methods, taiso would also mirror that of the other martial arts style, to allow students and instructors to gain understanding of the conditioning system of the other system and, let instructors get a feeling of how to advance their own Taiso conditioning system, while they develop their own fitness and exercise routines.

The core principle of Jujutsu is yielding to overcome, and yet as much as Jujitsu practitioner is taught to yield, to be soft, they are also taught to harden their body through exercise and physical conditioning.
