Chapter 5

Training has a number by it because we'll just assume this won't be the only training chapter.)

"Well my cute little Genin, shall we see what chakra elements you have? Once we find that out, we can work on your strengths before covering your weaknesses."

Each was passed a paper, Naruto's was wind, Sakura's was earth and water, which made sense, while Sasuke had a Lightning and fire nature, something he already knew. The fire nature was something all Uchiha had, and the lightning was from canon.

Then Kakashi went on to explain how to train higher forms of chakra control, instructing them how to do it. Each person showed a varying level of skill. Outright, Sakura had the best chakra control, but even after she mastered the leaf sticking properly, they moved onto tree running which after a few tries she got up quickly.

Working to practice it as well to see what all she could do by using this ability. Though Kakashi did mention something.

''Remember, this technique doesn't just work on feet, it can be used on any part of your body, much like the leaf sticking exercise. Simply thinking of it as you being the leaf, and now you're sticking yourself to things. Sakura already showed an example of this, but some benefits to chakra sticking, is fortifying your feet so they don't move, a great thing to do when you have to fight an opponent face to face.''

Sasuke had an idea about this, but naruto was asked to continue training his 'Rock sticking' since that was actually the best for Naruto currently while Sasuke moved to tree climbing, to make up for the fact Naruto kept complaining about how they were ahead of him, Kakashi taught him a very simple wind jutsu that was basically just a wind bullet.

Though, with Naruto's chakra, that wind bullet was capable of putting a decent-sized dent into a tree. Which only spoke about what it could do to someone who had a weak body.

Teaching Naruto this, however, also taught Sasuke. Making Naruto's bragging about having learned a new ninjutsu kind of amusing, but Sasuke wasn't going to show off. Unlike Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura didn't have access to a Founding Clan's library that had a ton of not just jutsu suited for them as a clan, but also as a whole.

Without trying too hard, he could spam out a few D's and C's, but it would drain the chakra reserves he has now. Unlike Naruto who could use shadow clones up to a minimum of a few hundred times. Only going to show just how much chakra he had, even now.

Of course, Sasuke knew multiple B, A, and S rank jutsu, but he wouldn't use them, chakra exhaustion was very much a thing, but trying to use too much chakra you didn't have could result in some pretty bad symptoms, one of them being if you're attempting to use a fire release technique and it's way over your chakra limit, you might simply just die from your own chakra burning you up.

Sasuke continued to tree climb, not getting frustrated as the original did, it was annoying for sure, falling from such a height, but Sasuke had made it easier by using earth release to move a large section of earth away over time, then use water from a nearby lake to make himself a little pool, hardening the stone on the edge so the water didn't leak and it stayed pretty clean.

Well, as clean as it can with someone in shorts and a t-shirt covered in dust that kept falling into it. He had plenty of time to master this so he wasn't bothered by it so much.

One technique he was sure to learn was the body flicker, it was just to useful not to. Just as he would eventually learn Flying Thunder God as well.

Actually, what jutsu's wouldn't he learn? He'd learn all of them over time, even family clan jutsu's, certain clans jutsu's such as the body expansion jutsu's from the Akimichi clan's weren't viable because it required a specific type of body, but things like the Ino mind swapping jutsu's, or the Shadow possession jutsu of the Nara clan? For someone who would have a rather strong Yin release, they were just jutsu's to add to the growing list.

It was actually one of the times he was just relaxing in the pool as he thought about something.

Apparently, there might be a way to learn Dust release, he wasn't 100%, but he remembers something about how it was passed down, hinting it might not just be a bloodline thing, he'd have to look into it later when he would join Orochimaru and go on missions with them, he'd have plenty of time to move around without being spotted.

A few hours later and training was called off, letting them all return home.

After getting home Sasuke made a quick dinner, some steak, green beans, and mashed potatoes and gravy. He planned to later explore the lands for food, simply to try all the food he could. Because after a certain point in his life, even if he trained all he could, there wouldn't be much to do, so best use that time and explore not just the elemental nations, but maybe see if there are other places on this world then just these nations.

It was never really gone into detail if there were more than just the elemental nations, that or he simply couldn't remember. Sadly his great new memory because of his Dojutsu didn't quite help with old memories.

After he ate he began to practice again, however, this was for taijutsu training and Kenjutsu. Both being Uchiha family techniques, which made it easy for him because it was almost instinctive on how he was able to correct the movements and fix his own mistakes, it'd be better if he could train with someone that was even just proficient at using it, however, he'd have to make do with self-teaching.

It was only after the moon was starting to come out did he begin his meditation ritual with his eyes, letting the light from the moon penetrate his eyes freely by keeping them open.

Letting himself get bathed in the light as he meditated while staring at the moon, at one point he did smirk a bit.

"I'm a young master from a rich clan that's been wiped out, I have no backing but here I am, Cultivating my Yin Technique, passed to me through my ancestors... Now that I think about it, Chakra's pretty fucking cultivation-like... If only it could make me fly."

This meditation persisted for three exact hours before he turned into bed for the night.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This routine kept up, eventually having graduated from tree walking and moved to water walking, which as Kakashi warned, was much harder than tree walking. Sakura got it down within a few days, but Sasuke himself was taking the full week just to get to the point he could walk calmly across.

Naruto himself had graduated from rocks to pebbles, which frustrated the boy but after going back and forth with Sasuke and occasional quips from Kakashi, understood just how useful chakra control could be.

Sasuke had thought about teaching naruto the shadow clone trick, but after some trial and error, learned he simply couldn't yet.

Naruto's shadow clones were so easy for him to make now because their memories didn't get transferred over, and Sasuke concluded it might be because of Kurama's chakra, Naruto had a limit of chakra as everyone did, but because of the fox that chakra got filled up so fast, the remaining chakra that was supposed to return to him with the memories simply didn't.

Maybe it was because their chakra hadn't properly crossed paths yet? It wasn't even until the Chunnin exams when Naruto first encountered Kurama as far as Sasuke remembered.

But then, there was also the anime logic, shadow clone was just changed halfway through for the protagonist so he could have another cheat added on, because even if it wasn't because of his two different chakra's, why did it only register to naruto he got memories back when he and Kakashi went into the forest? Either way, the plot works in mysterious ways.

The week was an easy week for sure, which after the first week they took their first D-rank mission, it was just painting a fence, all be it a very large one.

At first, Naruto started to complain before Sasuke simply said to use clones. Kakashi had attempted to stop him, saying it was to build up 'Team work' but Sasuke had instantly countered him by saying.

''It is still considered teamwork, his clones will need to work together, and the better they work together, the better we will work as a team. I'm not saying we won't be helping, I can use a few clones myself, and Sakura can check our work to make sure we get everything and fix any mistakes."

Kakashi squinted at Sasuke, unamused that he made such a sound argument, so he couldn't torture the kids as he planned to since they gave him so little time for reading.

"Alright, fine. But no more than ten clones, too many and it will cause problems with the civilians."

Their life went, much like this for a few months.
