The word Ninja is Japanese. Nin忍(stealth,paitient) and ja者(man). During tang dynasty China when Mongolians invaded Beijing some Chinese generals and monks escaped by boat to east and landed in japan.

Nin忍(steath,perseverance)Jutsu術(The way,The art). Thats why the ninja had chinese influence. For example Dim mak(pressure points) are normally seen in kung fu movies. The ninja learned Dim Mak as well to kill opponents in 1 touch. Thats why Ninjutsu has Dim mak.
