22 Meeting a real Genius

It's Been a few days since I stopped going to the ninja academy myself and started sending my clones, up until now there is really not much the be done at the academy and almost no risk at all that my clone dissipates as we don't do any combat training yet.

Shinji invited me to train with him at the Uchiha training ground this weekend and I'm currently on my way to it. Strangely I had no difficulties entering as the relation between the village and the Uchiha isn't tense yet.

I first met with his adoptive parents that were very welcoming and even prepared a snack for us to enjoy before heading with him to the training area

Sora: "That was very good! I didn't expect your mom to use her Sharingan while cooking it was totally a cheat"

Shinji: "Yep and I could taste this every day... but your receipts are too original I never tried anything like that either... I wonder how you even tough about that you are a genius cook"

We quickly arrived at the training ground where several children and even adults were training there. to not bother anyone we went to one of the free corners and started training together.

We mostly did a little taijutsu-fighting in which I won easily before starting training our bodies to the limits.

As we were focused exhausting ourselves two shadows appeared next to us.

Itachi: "Hey Shinji! it's rare to see you training here"

Shinji: "Oh! big brother Itachi and big brother Shisui! what are you doing here? didn't you guys go to a mission outside the village two days ago?"

Shinji is very excited as he talks to them as he really admires them, he then quickly proceed to present them to me.

Shinji: "These two are the two geniuses of the Uchiha! Itachi recently promoted as Chūnin while he is only 10 years old and Shisui is one of the youngest Jonin in the village"

Kayle: "Wow! they are really famous in the whole village even I know about them"

I notice that they both look at me with a piercing stare.

Shisui: "So tell us Shinji who is this friend of yours?"

Shinji: "This is Kayle Sora! my best friend! we are in the same class at the academy and he is one of the smartest and powerful students there... if it wasn't for his parents being civilians I'm sure he would already be in the main class"

Itachi: "That's true... you ended in the civilian class... if you want I can try and talk to the teachers to get you the main one"

Shinji: "Don't worry about it big brother! my parents said the same thing... but it was my decision! I want to do it with my own hard work! I'm sure both Kayle and I will succeed.. there should be an exam in 2 months"

After talking a little more Shinji explained that even though he wasn't being treated badly at the Uchiha compound he was still being a little avoided as he was different. Luckily both Itachi and Shiui played with him and took care of him so he didn't feel lonely.

After discussing some more, I got the opportunity to spare with Itachi, we only used taijutsu and I ended up losing mostly to having a weaker body due to my age. We both had fun and we agreed to spare some more in the future.

Just like that three months went by, my friendship with Shinji, Itachi, and Shisui got a lot stronger as we trained together weekly.

I also spent quite a lot of time with Naruto, Choji, Shikamaru, and even Kiba playing together and eating together.

I don't know why but I feel like I'm forgetting someone...

(Shino: "...Buddy I've been participating to all your events as well..." (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ )

As for my taijutsu training Gaï finally decided to show me the training for the Eight Gates Released Formation.

Unexpectedly, the Eight Gates Released Formation isn't only a taijutsu technique used to power up during a fight but it also contains a specific training exercise that strengthens the whole body.

I made great progress in almost everything and now I can summon around 10 clones.

But the thing that opened my eyes the most was descovering how to create a Jutsu and transforming one.

Thanks to Kakashi, Itachi, and Shisui and using Konoha's library I finally started understanding how this works and started working on a few techniques I've been thinking about for quite a while.
