Chapter 14 : Fuinjutsu

After that day, I had someone to train with. And to my surprise, Tenten came there quite often, which made me ponder why she is not training with her team.

Upon asking I learn that Guy solemnly focuses on Taijutsu and Ninja knowledge. To cover this he sometimes did bring other chunin and jonin to help but genin but those days were rarity.

Now Guy was a really good sensei for both Lee and Neji. Lee was just a mini version of Guy while Neji specialist in both Taijutsu and sensory part in their team.

This only left Tenten, thanks to being in Guy's team her Taijutsu was better than most people, I doubt that even Naruto can beat her in Taijutsu if he doesn't resort to his Shadow Clones. Of course, Naruto would outlast her when it comes to a prolonged fight but honestly who he wouldn't ?

That is why Tenten after doing some D rank missions with her team ends up training on her own. Though not this often, she did accept the fact that after meeting me she now comes here in our usual training ground more often.

Our training soon went from normal chakra control to other aspects like Taijutsu, Fuinjutsu, and especially Ken Jutsu.

I felt that I was getting the better deal there as the girl was often teaching me than actually getting trained. But she did seem to enjoy the sight banter, I should treat her for helping me out one of these days.

Under her, I learned quite a bit.

Our chakra control was approximately equal at the start but I pulled ahead of her quite fast. It turns out that Tenten's chakra control is not that great. It's good for anything else but not precise work. For this reason, it took him some time to learn water walking.

I who was already done with the training before her helped her out here and there. To the best of my abilities.

In Tajustu, she was better but I was catching up. She didn't seem to be interested in Taijutsu, which makes sense, that was the reason why she wasn't working right now with her team.

But she helped me out nonetheless when I asked for Kenjutsu training as well. That was one thing, her eyes always shine at. Weapons and kenjutsu. Any kind of weapon and she is game.

Maybe I should look out for better weapons when I go out for missions for her. Maybe!

Now Kenjutsu for me was an optional thing, but when I had such a genius in Kenjutsu like Tenten here, not learning from her felt idiotic.

I tried from swords to nunchucks but none suited me. I need my hands free to form seals in a fight. Summoning shikigami and capturing with my shadow possession jutsu is my only gimmick right now, I can't have my hands tied up with something like a sword.

To solve this I either have to get weapons like how Asuma is used in the anime or have to learn single hang signs like Haku could do in the anime.

Is that even possible with Ten Shadow's? I have no idea. So for the time being, I am learning with swords with Tenten, but am not sure whether I will continue with this or not.

The most interesting part to me though was Fuinjutsu. In the entire Konoha 12, Tenten is the only one who knows anything about Fuinjutsu. And though even her knowledge isn't that much but even basic knowledge from her was useful.

In fact, now that I have mostly improved my chakra control, I plan to put the one clone I always have active and working at home switch from Shadow Manipulation to Fuinjutsu. Fuinjutsu is useful as hell and I would be an idiot not to learn it.

So today again I have arrived here in the Ninja Library to get some books about fuinjutsu.

"I need something about Fuinjutsu please," I asked the girl managing the library. She had long hair with brown big eyes, not a character from Naruto, but she was pretty.

"Fuinjutsu… you might get some basic fuinjutsu scroll on the last shelf there." She reply immediately like knowing the library like the back of her hand.

"Thank you." I didn't bother her anymore after that, though I was still surprised that she was working here, she didn't even look like in her early Twenties.

But again, people here age slightly slower thanks to the excellent natural environment and no pollution. Not to mention if she is a shinobi then it also makes sense. After all, training makes you fitter.

I took three scrolls from the shelf and went to the nearby table to read them. The idea was to memorise all the basic characters. Of course, I can't do that like some human human genius so it took me a long time there, almost an entire day.

Sealing is much like programming. But at the same time not a program.

Sealing has its own logic and numbers here don't apply. But the basic logic which one might use to build a basic program also works here.

The seals are like broken codes. The thing which makes Fuinjutsu hard is that we have to make something out of these broken codes. It's not like we have enough knowledge here to build the program ourselves. We can only use what is given to us in the form of these complicated seals which again is very hard to pinpoint what they will do if used in various different combinations.

Sigh.

'It's clear that I need a teacher in this regard. Even Minato had someone like Kushina and Jiraiya to learn from. While Tobirama created Hiraishin, I don't at all think that he was able to do that alone, surely his connection with the Uzumaki and especially Mito helped him.

Sigh, unfortunately, I have no one like that around me besides Tenten right now, and even she only knows the most basic of Fuinjutsu.

I certainly won't be sealing Biju anytime soon.

But…

Necessity is the mother of invention. I will just give all this seal to the clone and let him figure things out. Hopefully, he can do something about it.

As I was done, I was ready to leave, it was already time to close the library anyway.

"Thank you for your help earlier." Before leaving I made sure to thank the librarian again.
