Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 55: The Path to becoming an Elite



Fujin asked, "What do you mean by \'can\' Sensei?"

Renjiro replied, "The people from our clan are blessed with high levels of chakra. Surely you\'d have sensed that by now." Fujin nodded.

Renjiro continued, "So our techniques usually have high chakra requirements. If anyone else were to try and learn, they\'ll run out of chakra very quickly. You, on the other hand, have a lot of chakra as compared to your counterparts. In fact, it\'s more than both Hoka and Mieki combined. So you\'ll be perfect to learn Senju Taijutsu style."

Fujin quickly understood and nodded, "Alright! When can we start Sensei? Also, can you explain what exactly is Senju Taijutsu style? I haven\'t ever read it."

Renjiro replied, "We\'ll begin right away after I explain the basics. Senju Taijutsu style is actually pretty straightforward. Actually, the Academy Taijutsu style was created by referring to our style. What makes Senju style lethal is the use of Chakra.

Any Taijutsu style basically consists of users fighting with their arms and legs or some other body parts. Of course, there are a few exceptions, like Hyuga Taijutsu which releases small amounts of chakra from their fingers or palm, and a clan in Kiri that uses bones.

In Senju Taijutsu style, your every move will be reinforced by Chakra. You want to punch? Your fist needs to gather Chakra first and release it on impact. You want to kick? You have to do the same. You want to block? Infuse chakra into the body part you want to block with or is about to hit.

This ensures that your defense is like a fortress, while your attack is devastating. Of course, such a style means that not only do you need to have a huge amount of chakra, but you also need to have very good chakra control. Else, even a huge chakra reserve will get depleted very quickly."

Renjiro\'s explanation shocked Fujin a bit. He analyzed, \'Isn\'t this similar to Tsunade\'s fighting style? In fact, I did already make some attempts of infusing chakra in my punches. To think this is the Senju style. Tsunade\'s fighting style probably represents the Senju Taijutsu style used by someone who\'s reached the peak of Chakra control.

Anyways, this is very good. Finally, a Taijutsu style that can allow me to compete, or even overpower others.\'

After analyzing, he said, "Let\'s start Sensei."

Renjiro nodded and began the training. He said, "First, we will start by getting you to completely infuse your chakra in your whole body. Once you can do that, we will begin concentrating on infusing it with individual body parts only.

Display your entire Chakra first."

Fujin obeyed, and released his entire chakra. Renjiro looked at Fujin. He could see a blue chakra completely cloaking Fujin. His first thought was, \'Marvellous\'.

Fujin too was in thought, \'Actually, I do have some basic understanding of this. While I never exposed it for obvious reasons. Now will be a good time to use it to just show it as natural talent, hehe.\'

Following Fujin\'s expectations, Renjiro gave his next command, "Now try to contain that Chakra inside your body, such that it flows through your entire body. Think of it as similar to you doing Chakra Flow on your body rather than just your sword."

Fujin followed his guidance. He slowly began containing that Chakra in his body. In around 2 mins, the blue aura cloaking him slowly disappeared. But if someone were to observe closely, they\'d notice blue chakra flares being expelled occasionally from his body.

Renjiro, who was standing right in front of him, was shocked. He thought, \'So fast? This…\'

He swallowed his saliva before exclaiming to himself, \'This is unbelievable. Though the control isn\'t perfect by any means, he managed to contain the chakra in just a couple of minutes! It\'s as if this technique was made for him.\'

Fujin looked up at Renjiro, before asking, "Is this proper Sensei?"

Renjiro nodded and replied, "Yes, very good. But you are losing a lot of chakra while trying to maintain this form.

The next phase of your training will be to perfect this form. You\'ll activate it, and meditate until you can properly contain your chakra with zero loss. Until then, no Ninjutsu or Kenjutsu practice for you.

In fact, even when doing your morning workout, you\'ll start doing it by maintaining this form."

Hearing that he won\'t get to practice Ninjutsu or Kenjutsu disappointed Fujin a bit, but seeing the importance Renjiro stressed on this, he could vaguely guess that this will become something that might define him for a long time to come. It might even be what breaks him apart from the normal ninjas, and pave his way into becoming an Elite!

Renjiro\'s thoughts too were along the same lines, \'Now that I\'ve seen your potential in this, no way I\'d allow you to not raise this aspect to the peak!\'

Apart from a short lunch break, Fujin ended up training alongside Renjiro till 8PM. Finally, at 8, the training ended and Fujin was allowed to leave.

Before leaving, however, Renjiro said something that left Fujin tongue-tied! He said, "Tomorrow, increase the pressure on your seal to 30% during the morning workout." Fujin looked at his teacher skeptically, but seeing the serious look on his face, he just nodded helplessly.

On reaching home, Fujin ate a few Ration bars and straightaway dived into his bed thinking, \'Damn!! My entire body is sore! It\'s as if each and every cell in my body is screaming in pain! This is nuts. No wonder Renjiro asked me to double my Ration bar intake.

Still though. The progress that I made just today is crazy. If I manage to keep up with this training for months, I have no idea how strong I\'d become!\'

Not having the energy to do anything, he fell asleep.
