13 Increase of Repertoire

The trip to the Miyano family is something that rei would always remember because it was the first time he meets his best friend in this life. Rei hopes that having a best friend this time doesn't turn out like it was in his past life besides his best friend in this life is a genius of dual element affinity he hopes to influence him to train harder along with him not only would both their survival increase but everyone in the hidden leaf. After meeting Rei, Seiho decided that he'll try hard so that his friend don't leave him behind in the dust he was quite prideful even though it looked like he didn't feel upset when he lost to rei in fact he didn't quite understand how he lost because he has the better ninjutsu in the end he was totally frustrated because his C-class ninjutsu didn't work at all but rei is his friend and he didn't want him to be upset so he didn't show it.

Time pass by and the two little guys train together every now and then rei's mastery in taijutsu and bukijutsu still vastly outclassed seiho but his friend's improvement in the two areas are very evident along with his already overpowered ninjutsu for his age he gives rei a hard time in their sparring sessions. Rei's routine is repetitive training his taijutsu, bukijutsu, ninjutsu, and his only genjutsu until he reach his limit with his father every morning on days he plans to visit his godfather's place to train with seiho.

rei became a frequent visitor the miyano household every after lunch for at least twice a week he asks his father or mother to go to his godfather's place. The days where he doesn't visit his godfather is when he trains his body to the very limit in the morning and afternoon he doesn't know if it's good for his young body but his father doesn't stop him.

Rei: Dad, would training like this affect my growth?

Mokichi: not really son. I remember training much harder when I was young but it didn't affect my growth at all since we train our chakra as well it improves are body's constitution and chakra is our life energy itself the more you train the better your chakra would be and it would support your body better so don't worry.

Rei: So, I can train with added weights and that's be ok?

Mokichi: don't do that yet son since you haven't reach the limit where you can train with just your body weight.

Rei: Dad, remember when I broke through my chakra bottle neck in our trip to the yashina village.

Mokichi: I remembered that time I wanted to teach you a C-rank ninjutsu but that'll have to wait rei I think it's much better to perfect and polish your basics as you are now. Look if you want to do massive damage can't you use transformation technique to enlarge your weapon?

Rei: but I won't have enough strenght to swing it.

Mokichi: then train till you can! besides you have insane talent for chakra control learning ninjutsu would be a piece of cake for you later.

Rei: When do you think my chakra refinement would hit its bottle neck again dad?

Mokichi: I'm not sure I feel like after you went through two battles forced out your potential and you unexpectedly reap a huge harvest from that after fully refining your chakra potential right until it hits a bottle neck because of your age. I think you'll be able to perform at least seven or ten C-class ninjutsu that's pretty huge for your age that's at least one A-rank ninjutsu but your refinement will take time it might take a year since right now your chakra can at most perform three C-class ninjutsu before running out.

Rei: Ok dad I'll just continue training then!

Rei remembered kakashi when he was watching anime he was pretty much average in chakra reserves in the start of the series only being able to perform his signature ninjutsu for at least four times but later on in the series he was able to perform it at least six times. Meaning kakashi broke through his bottle neck in chakra reserves maybe through training or breaking through his limits in battles like what just happened to him.

Rei also remembered how kakashi was only able to use a few kamui but then was increased throughout the series remembering all this he now thinks it's possible to improve his chakra reserves, since his father said that they have a little bit more than average chakra reserves saying he was above average in terms of potential then chances are he is going to have that same potential. Since chakra reserves can be improved in training but it was also stated that no amount of training could increase it to the levels those monstrous people have like kakashi's reserves no matter how much he trains would never reach an uzumaki's level.

Rei: It's ok not to have that kind of chakra reserves I remember in the series naruto had so much chakra but he tends not to put the exact amount of chakra that made him expend more stamina than usual he was such a cheat though having an almost infinite amount of chakra due to the ninetails. I'll just have work on my control not to waste even a drop of chakra in my techniques and work hard enough for my taijutsu to reach high levels along with my bukijutsu so that I won't have to use techniques constantly. -rei whispered on his mind.

At the miyano household rei and seiho were done with the training and sparring for the day.

Seiho: Rei, what did you do to reach that level in taijutsu and bukijutsu I could barely keep up with you. You're just physically faster than me, so I have to use "body flicker" a lot when we spar it sort of limits the amount of ninjutsu I could use as well.

Rei: I train my physical abilities every day in the morning and the afternoon when I'm not training with you. I only stop when my body is not able to take it anymore and I'm about to pass out.

Seiho: Isn't that crazy rei... how could you endure that it gets really boring as well when you do something repetitively.

Rei: That's because my father said I should work on my very basics so that I won't have to use techniques and chakra a lot when fighting. Since I don't have a lot of chakra right now as a child but he also said even as an adult being able to conserve chakra would be important since you don't know how much of fighting you'll be doing.

Rei reasoned out like his father said the truth is that a part of what he really said was from his father but he really just wants to reach an extreme level with his techniques and physical abilities besides his father hasn't taught him C-class or even D-class ninjutsu that has an element nature so he has no choice but to train what he knows which in turn made him what he is now.

Seiho: I'll train hard in taijutsu and bukijutsu as hard as you do, then maybe I'll beat you in no time. Hehehe!

Rei: Yeah you should. Imagine if you have my skills in melee combat and accuracy with range weapons you could probably graduate the academy early since you already know C-class ninjutsu's as well wouldn't that be awesome!

Seiho: I think so as well, but I'd like to stay in the academy much longer since I can make more friends. I feel lonely at home since my eldest sibling became a genin she's been doing missions all the time or training outside the place. my older brother is training and studying at the academy as well, while mom and dad are mostly not home because they're both ninjas as well. So, I'm really happy you became my friend.

Rei: That's ok you can spend time at our place then we can train together!

While the kids were talking Seiho's mother keep her silence and heard their conversation she felt sad when she heard her young child feel lonely because of their absence and glad that he found himself a friend in rei. Sugihara Sayoko is kata's wife she's the same age as him, has long golden hair, green expressive eyes, fair skin, thin eyebrows, straight nose, and a round face. When rei saw seiho's mother he then told himself that his father and godfather hit the jackpot in the lottery because they both have beautiful moms. Sayoko went towards the kids and gave them some dangos for snacks and sit with them to have some casual talk since she also misses her son and wants to know about his son's new friend.

Sayoko: Rei, thank you for being friends with my son.

Rei: I like being friends with him too, so you don't have to thank me auntie.

Sayoko: I heard from seiho he likes to surpassed you in bukijutsu and taijutsu since he was no match against you.

Rei: he said that, but I'm also no match against Seiho in ninjutsu. I wish I could do things like that but father said I should focus on my own strengths first before learning ninjutsu.

Sayoko: Your father's right on letting you focus on the basics first since ninjutsu is useless if you can't survive long enough to use it. We just made Seiho learn ninjutsu right away because of his talents.

Rei: Un, then is it ok for seiho to train with me in taijutus and bukijutsu?

Sayoko: Of course, you two can even train here as much as you want in the future I'll even show you a secret place to train ninjutsu.

Seiho: that's right mom, I'll train with Rei as much as I can!

Sayoko: Since you both are so hard working and I heard of kata that he hasn't rewarded you yet rei for a new jutsu then I'll teach you.

Rei: teach it to seiho as well so we can both train in it together.

Rei thought that his friend should learn a ninjutsu or technique from his mother as well since seiho feels alone when they're not around if sayoko only teaches rei seiho might get jealous since his only four-years-old and that might become a problem. Sayoko on the other hand was quite happy that her son found a friend who cares about his son since rei suggested to teach it to seiho as well.

Sayoko: since your father said that you should focus on skills first I'll just teach you two a D-rank Shurikenjutsu.

Rei & Seiho: thank you!

Sayoko: Since it's a shurikenjutsu it might become deadlier depending on the tools you put in it or how you modify it so don't underestimate it. The first one I'm going to teach you kids is "Manipulated shuriken technique" the second one would be "Manipulated Shuriken Wire Binding techinique".

Sayoko explain how the two shurikenjustu works, attaching a string to the two shurikens use would allow the user alter the path of the shuriken and if they become good enough they'll be able to control the shuriken as they want. The second shurikenjutsu works as a compliment to the first one using the wires to entrap the target she further explains that the techniques potential are highly dependent on the user and tools they use they can even apply chakra or jutsu on the technique to make it more dangerous.

When Sayoko was done teaching and explaining the technique rei was quite upset not because it's another D-rank technique but because he knows the value of the technique if he knew how to use this in that tiger incident he wouldn't ended up like he did. The tiger sure won't die with just shurikens but what if he uses fuma shurikens. At that time he was already thinking of throwing those huge shurikens but dismissed the idea since the tiger would probably just dodge a projectile that big but if he could alter its path then it'll be a different story what's more the shurikens can actually come from behind hitting the enemy off guard.

Time flew by only three months left before the academy starts Seiho and Rei constantly train with each other and becoming bestfriends. Mokichi is still on leave from the anbu squad so most of the time he looks after the boys training so no untoward incident happens especially now that they are playing with fuma shurikens which is known for their lethality he also advised the boys that these shurikens are not allowed to be used inside the academy.

Seeing how his son's taijutsu and bukijutsu mokichi thought that maybe it is time for rei's affinity to be tested since rei already has enough chakra to used C-rank ninjutsu besides rei has already mastered all the ninjutsu he learned and is now thinking of ways to use them creatively in battle specially the "transformation technique" that could transform his weapon.
