3 Rewards of Hard Work.

It's been a month since I started going to school and I believe that due to my presence I may have alter some aspects of history that was in the original series. For one thing me and Sasuke ended up in a rivalry of sort and both of our skills in taijutsu has improved quite a bit. Hell my progress with my clan's Primal Ape Fist has shot through the roof, as did my movement technique. I am now much faster than he is now, but to help him out I match my speed to his so that it isn't an overwhelming massacre when we spar.

On the second day at the academy Naruto showed up. Just like the show he loud-mouth, cheerful, and tends to sleep much during the class. After chatting with him, much to the instructor's displeasure we hit it off quite well. He was surprised I would even interact with him considering the civilians and even some clansmen would tell their children to keep away. During one of our sparring matches at the academy our instructor did find me helping the young Jinchuuriki correct his stances and forms for the basic academy taijutsu. So from that day on I was never paired up with him again. So I ended up arranging an annual sparring and training session every other day at my favorite stretch of woods my house. Hardly anyone comes through here unless it's just to pass by, and there are a few small clearings Incase I wanted more room to move about. With all of the trees it's perfect for my movement technique as I can use the trees as obstacles to avoid while running through the woods. The academy was most definitely sabotaging any chances for the poor kid to grow, for he was purposely taught the wrong forms of the basic taijutsu. The stances were off and his strikes were lacking the proper power and flexibility that the others have when they were taught the taijutsu style.

"These are all wrong!" After studying up on the academy basic taijutsu I can immediately tell everything wrong with it, hell due to me being a real martial arts nut now days, which I did kinda watched a lot of videos and study up on different types in my past life, I was able to improve a few of the academy basics and help Naruto ease into it. Instead of being a brainless brawler with no taijutsu skills, he is improving gradually. Though the clan heads and geniuses like Rock Lee blow him out of the water. Naruto wasn't a genius of hard work for nothing, so if he wants to become the Hokage in the future he needs to earn that hat. A few times Sasuke would come over to join in our training. He didn't quite like the knuckle headed hyperactive would-be ninja at first, but as they days go by during our training it wasn't so bad. Knowing that Naruto is an outcast and orphan kinda made him take some pity on the blonde so he was a little more tolerable of him.

Plus Naruto's taijutsu was improving and soon the Uchiha was finding the spars much more fun, but not in the sadistic, overwhelming the inferior fighter kind of way. The faster these kids improve the faster I do as well. After all a saiyan grows stronger much faster in battle than most other species. If I can get a zenkai boost now then I will leave these kids behind by miles. A few times during our gathered training mom would come to watch when she wasn't on a mission. A few times she would spar with us 3-1 and totally wipe the floor with us. It was a painful experience but it just goes to say you can't get stronger without some form of pain.

"Urg.... Thank the gods for senzu beans."

Due to how miraculous these beans are I decided to keep them from public eyes, well with mom as an exception. One day before she left on a mission I slipped her one and she was extremely surprised after I told her how amazing these beans were. Being able to instantly recover from any injures with amputated limbs being the exception.

Arisu: How miraculous! These things could save many lives!

"They could, but I can only get a few each week. I use these to help with my training, plus keep one in case of an emergency. I want you to keep one on you at all time."

Arisu: I will son, thank you!

She hugs me affectionately while rubbing my head. Having a parent still alive and caring for you is great. Me and my sister in my past life lived with a friend of our family once our parents died in a car accident. Remembering something, I had to share some important information with mom.

"Hey mom!," She releases me and looks in my eyes, "As I was studying the information stored on the scouter I picked up something that was lost to our clan ages ago."

Arisu: Oh? What would that be?

I grin, "Our clan is one that seeks out greater strength and challenges. They train and live for a good fight. Even growing stronger with each fight, but they also have a special racial trait unique to us. The trait is called Zenkai. With it we grow considerably stronger as we survive a life threatening battle. If your on the verge of death during one of your missions, take the senzu bean immediately and you may be able to overpower your enemy."

Arisu: Really? If we knew that a couple of years ago and had a senzu bean on hand, then perhaps your father would be alive today. This is an amazing find son!

"Hehehe! I just want us to survive and get stronger together mom, this world isn't a safe place after all."

Arisu: Your right. I'll stay vigilant when I'm out in the field. You just focus on growing up big and strong for mother.

"I will definitely get stronger!" She just smiled at my me as I pumped my fist with a cutely serious look. Got to act my age after all. A few days after I had given her the senzu bean and she went on a mission it turned out the bean had come in handy when she and her team was ambushed by a particularly powerful Missing Nin and she had taken what could have ended up a fatal injury and come out stronger than ever, completely overwhelming the shocked rogue with her new power up. If she was merely considered a jounin level before, then now she would be high jounin level at this point. When the body of the ninja was handed over there was a large gaping hole in the chest where a ki blast burst through killing the unlucky bastard instantly. She definitely thanked me profusely afterwards. I ended up giving her my final free bean for the week for safety purposes, but at this point it will be harder for her to receive such an injury again since she came out much stronger. It would take a Kage level or higher to deal that kind of damage to her and I doubt that with her pride she would purposely take a hit like that.

After 3 more months of training I had made a few more breakthroughs in my training. My skills are as followed.

Ki Blast: 100%.

Primal Ape Fist: 100%.

Intermediate Kai Movement Technique: 45%.

Leaf Technique: 100%.

Tree Walking: 100%.

Water Walking: 25%.

3 months have brought me sooo much progress in my training! Ki Blasts at 100% can be lethal to just about anyone if they were ambushed with it. With maxed out mastery I can shot off a normal blast, charge it up with more ki chakra and unleash a larger and more damaging attack, or charge it up and divide it into a volley of blasts. Raining down hell on the more quicker enemies should never go wrong. Though the potential collateral damage leaves much to be desired. Maybe I can create a lock-on system using my scouter as a medium since it is considered an assistance tool. My chakra control has risen quite a bit over the few months of my training. I can juggle and move around any number of leaves over my body. Walking up the trees without using my hands wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be. I wasn't in a hurry and didn't have as much stress as Sasuke and Naruto did in the actual show and found it easy. The reason my chakra control is progressing slower than I hoped is due to the fact that I am focused on balancing growing each of the skill as I go on. I don't want one aspect being far ahead of the others leaving a crucial weakness. Training solo, with a few fellow academy friends, mostly Sasuke since it could help him get stronger and impress his big brother, Naruto because no one else would give him the time of the day, occasionally mom would come by for some spars as well.

One day I even met Itachi when he was checking up on us after he found out Sasuke would come by for some training and sparring. After I shared a few of my ideas that could improve the Uchiha's personal taijutsu style, they were able to improve them all on their own. Sometimes it takes an outside prospective to find a solution to newer enlightenment. By improving a few flaws of the academy's style and making some changes to a few techniques, Naruto made some big improvements of his own. He is giving Sasuke a run for his money. These improvements will be good for him, but due to his stubborn dislike of studying and abysmal chakra control, which he has started to improve on thanks to tree climbing, plus the inability to create a single normal clone in the future, he will still be dead last in the end sadly enough.

I wish you luck Naruto. At least the ass whooping Mizuki receives from you in the future will be even more brutal

—————

As I was training alone today after school I was just finishing up my normal routine and resting against a tree. I was glancing through the options on the scouter and made my way over to the shop to look at the techniques and got to remembering how easily Goku had mastered the Kamehameha in the show.

"Hm... He learned the technique so easily after watching Roshi do it only once. What are the odds of me doing it too? Do I really have to buy the manuals from the shop? If I could recreate the techniques myself I can save some money."

I stand up and move away from the tree and face it.

"Lets see here... If I recall correctly I spread my feet apart like.... this.... then I..." I follow the movements of the characters from the show. Cupping my hands I pull them to my side and start concentrating, trying my very best to channel in between my hands. This is where I am glad that my chakra/ki control has improved, otherwise this would be much much more difficult. Gradually I can feel the energy being drawn and concentrated in between my cupped hands, slowly growing larger until it is snuggly fit in between my palms.

"Ka-me-ha-me" I thrust my hands forward and a small, streaming beam of blueish, white energy launches forward at the tree, "HA!" The beam, just barely as wide as my head crashes into the tree, slowly tearing into it for a few seconds until the energy supplying the attack is abruptly cut and it fades away.

"Ha...ha....ha.... That is a draining attack.... First time whooohooo!" I raise my hand in celebration. I, just like Goku, had learned and used the Kamehameha first try! This had gotten me so excited that I started hopping around happily. As I was celebrating a text appears on my scouter interrupting me.

[Congratulations! You have successfully recreated and gained the Kamehameha Wave with your own effort. You will be rewarded 10,000 ryo.]

"WHOA! If I learn it on my own, rather than buy it from the shop, then it rewards me with the original cost of the skill. That's freaking awesome! No longer will I be forced to wait until random encounters are unlocked or reaching full mastery of an already known skill."

The rewards for mastering the few skills I had only rewarded me with a few hundred ryo each, so rather than saving the meager amount from them I used them to stockpile on senzu beans in case of an emergency. For some reason I feel I'm reaching a limit to my growth that I suspect has to do with the limitation of my age and size. If I want to grow stronger then I will need to let myself grow naturally, or perhaps it's something else?

"I can only cross that bridge when I get there. Time to raise my mastery!"

I take up my stance and charge up another Kamehameha Wave. "Ka-me-ha-me-HA!" I fire another shot at the tree and watch as the blast digs a little deeper than the rest before the attack ends."

"Still draining as it was the first time. It will improve as the mastery rises."

Kamehameha Wave - Stage 1: 5%.

"Stage 1? Makes sense. I won't have the power to blow up planets anytime soon. If it's anything like the games I have played it can be charge to be larger and more damaging. Can't charge past stage 1 until I master it."

After a short rest I prepare to start another charge...

BEEP!

"Huh?"

I had just remembered that I set the scouter to alert me when someone comes near. Following the arrow of the scouter I find a little girl who the scouter determines to be a year older than me.

Name: Sora Uchiha.

Age: 7.

Sex: Female.

Species: Human - Uchiha Bloodline - Purity 43%.

Combat Capabilities: Academy Level.

Other Evaluation: Has a mentality and thought process far greater than those of her generation. Possibility of being reborn is high.

"Seriously?" I am actually shocked at what I have read from the scouter's evaluation. It seems rebirth is not an uncommon thing. While I'm thinking to myself she points at me and begins to speak.

Sora: Saiyan..... Kamehameha..... thats cheating.

"Seriously!?" Despite her limited and lazy vocabulary she seems to recognize me as a saiyan, even recognized my attack as well. So that means she has some experience with the series. I got a feeling a headache is coming my way...
