Training, and More Training

Kazeji Residence

Kaito and Naruto were in the backyard of the house, waiting to start their training.

"Hey, Kaito, speaking of which, did Haruki-sensei give you any tests?" Naruto asked, recalling that Kaito's new sensei was his father.

"Of course, Naruto, but my team and I have already passed the test. Tomorrow, we'll start with the Genin missions," Kaito replied, looking at Naruto with a smile.

Naruto looked at Kaito with excitement about the ninja missions.

"Wow, you'll be able to do ninja missions already. That's incredible."

Kaito could have dampened Naruto's excitement by talking about what Genin missions were like, but he decided not to.

Kaito simply nodded.

While they were talking, Kaito's mother, Hana, was walking in their direction.

She looked at the boys and began to speak.

"I'm going to teach you Fuuton. Pay attention, Naruto, you already know a Wind Style jutsu, and you should be practicing it. But the more ninjutsu at your disposal, the better. You can use the ones that suit the battle the most." After saying this, she waited for a moment to let the information sink in.

"So, continuing, I'll teach you the Wind Style jutsu: Wind Blades and Wind Barrier." When Hana was about to start teaching them about the ninjutsu, her son raised his hand.

"Mom, I want to learn how to walk on water first. Can we have our clones learn while you teach us ninjutsu?"

Hana was slightly surprised.

"You haven't learned that yet? What was your father doing? I'll have to scold him later. But sure, I'll teach you."

Saying that, she asked them to create their clones and follow her.

She also created a clone and, with a leap, she left the house, followed by the boys' clones.

"Now that they're gone, let's start training," as soon as their clones left, she began to teach.

"Let me give you a quick explanation. Wind nature can be as gentle as a breeze or as strong as a tornado. It can also be the sharpest; wind blades can cut through anything in their path or simply blow everything away." Saying this, she formed a seal and, with a wave of her hand, several wind blades shot out from her hand and collided with the unfortunate test dummy, cutting it into 20 small pieces.

Kaito and Naruto were excited by the power of ninjutsu.

"You see, boys, this is a simple C-rank ninjutsu, of course, when used by me. You'll learn a simplified version called Wind Blade, but you can train to make it Multiple Wind Blades."

After demonstrating the ninjutsu, she began to teach them how to use it.

Kaito learned quickly, and with a wave of his hands, a small wind blade shot towards another dummy, cutting its torso but not deep enough to split it in half.

"You'll have to train a bit more, but once you learn it, it will be very useful." His mother patted his head as she spoke. Then, she looked at Naruto, who had used Shadow Clone jutsu to learn.

Not taking much longer, Naruto quickly learned it too, waving his hands, and a wind blade went towards the target but dissipated before reaching it.

Just as she had done with Kaito, she went to Naruto and ruffled his hair, saying, "You need to improve your chakra control at the release, Naruto. But the good thing is, with these many clones, it will be easier. However, you'll get tired faster, Naruto, it's a lot of information for your brain to process and exhaustion for your body to handle all at once. So, use it carefully, Naruto. Don't try to learn too many things at once." After explaining the problems of using this training technique, she began teaching another ninjutsu.

"The next jutsu is Wind Barrier, similar to the Water Barrier you learned, but with wind. Unlike the Water Barrier, which defends, this ninjutsu, when used, releases a large amount of wind from the mouth, which rotates around the ninja and continues to rotate until deactivated. The Wind Barrier can deflect projectiles and some enemy ninjutsu in another direction." Again, she waited for the boys to process what she said.

The two were paying attention, so she quickly started teaching them how to use the ninjutsu.

A few minutes later, Kaito was the first to learn it. With a hand seal, he started filling his chest with air and then released a large amount of wind that spun around him, making it look like he was inside a miniature tornado.

Naruto didn't take much longer and managed to execute it the same way Kaito did.

Hana noticed that the boys had already learned how to use it, so all that was left was training. She let them free to practice.

Kaito began by training Wind Blade, each time he used the jutsu, it got better and sharper than before.

Naruto followed the same idea and started training. With multiple clones firing wind blades, he quickly began to hit the dummy and leave deeper cuts with each attempt.

While they were training, Kaito stopped for a moment because his head began to hurt. Several pieces of information and experiences were transferred to Kaito through his memory; his Shadow Clone had finished its water-walking training.

With that in mind, he had another idea and created another clone. This clone began to train Suiton.

The sound of water and wind was heard from Kaito's side as he and his clone trained.

On Naruto's side, various sounds were also heard.

...

Haruki had just returned home when he saw his son and Naruto training ninjutsu without stopping. Not wanting to distract them, he went to where Hana was, not far from where the boys were training.

"Hi, dear, how's the boys' training going?"

"It's going well, but a certain someone forgot to teach them how to walk on water, didn't they?" She looked at him with a faux angry expression.

Haruki's mouth opened and closed as he thought of an excuse while scratching his head; he came up with one he thought would be plausible.

"Well, I couldn't find any suitable lakes for them to train in, dear," Haruki said, already starting to sweat.

"Uh-huh, I see. Do you think I don't know you're lying? I just took them to learn almost now."

"Haha, well, good. Want to hear some news? Our son's team passed the test with ease, and I think with some training, this team will shine even brighter in the future," Haruki said, trying to change the subject quickly.

Hana, of course, noticed him trying to change the subject but decided to let it slide. She wasn't really angry.

She smiled at her husband while telling him about their son's training.

Haruki was amazed at how quickly Kaito learned ninjutsu, but Hana explained how people from her clan had an easier time when it came to Suiton and Fuuton.

Several hours passed.

Kaito and Naruto had just finished their training for

the day, so Naruto went back to his dormitory, while Kaito sat in the training field.

Kaito, who was sitting, raised his hand and used his chakra to create a water blade. As soon as the blade formed, a cold breeze started, and the water blade froze, turning into a katana.

'Hehe, this is the feeling. I can already imagine using Ice Dragon jutsu. It will be so powerful'. Kaito thought arrogantly while looking at his almost transparent ice katana.

"I'll play around a bit," he said, then ran to the test dummy and cut it.

Swooish! Swooish! Swooish!

With three consecutive cuts, the test dummy slid into three pieces while the cut parts froze.

'Powerful. I can imagine using it with my ice kekkei genkai. It will significantly increase the attack power. I have so many ideas for it.' Kaito thought arrogantly as he looked at his nearly transparent ice katana.

'I think I'll go train in the forest. I can test my Water Dragon jutsu there. I want to at least be able to use it in a moment of desperation, and it's even better if I can turn it into an attack. It will be powerful'.

After that, Kaito stopped training.

He entered the house, went to the bathroom to take a shower, put on some new green clothes, and had dinner.

Afterwards, he left the house and entered a forest near his residence.
