Сhapter 7

The first real successes in the field of mastering the chakra appeared to me only after a couple of months of not-so-daily meditations. Yes, during these few months I managed to try almost all the ways to feel my own chakra, but it turned out to be much more difficult than I initially thought. I was literally looking for something in myself, I don't know what, and the chakra itself was in no hurry to "go to my meeting" ... In the sense that all the techniques involving spontaneous emissions of the chakra, in response to strong or prolonged emotions, simply did not affect me in any way.

Yes, I could walk all day with a pebble in my sandals, wildly raving about it… But the feeling of irritation was still quite controlled and "calm". This is how I thought, and did not allow to provoke an uncontrolled release of the chakra outside. And I couldn't do anything with my restraint. My real age affected me, and I was never a particularly hot-tempered person.

But also especially calm or assiduous in this life, only a bang completely unfamiliar with me could call me. A metaphorical awl in one place simply did not allow me to devote much time to the same meditation. And I myself, of course, after the first few weeks I was slightly disappointed in this method, meditating only as much as possible. But even so, it was meditation as a result that allowed me to feel my own chakra.

At first, barely, I didn't even understand what exactly I felt for the first time, but over time, the feeling of energy raging in my body became clearer and clearer. And even though I couldn't feel my own chakra yet without using the same meditation… But even so, my enthusiasm skyrocketed again. In addition, I corny liked to feel my own chakra…

Hitherto unseen sensations of how a certain energy, cold and bubbling like a mountain spring, flows through my body, just intoxicated me ... Although, some discomfort when in contact with my own chakra also took place. At the same time, I could not fully describe the reasons for my discomfort, but it seemed to me ... as if someone had poured a good portion of pepper into the mountain spring from which I had been drinking all this time. The peculiar "edge" of my chakra was somewhat confusing, spoiling really wonderful feelings.

But I was still happy to feel my chakra. And here it's not even just that my labors of the last months have finally paid off. No, this success meant much more to me, because by the end of the second month of my unsuccessful attempts to feel the chakra, I seriously thought that I simply did not have it… Because of this, the table's desired success in the end became even more triumphant. I even bragged about my successes at the academy as a result, unable to keep my mouth shut.

But this is already so - little things, especially since most of my classmates still did not take my words seriously, banally ridiculing me. And only Iruka-sensei, as a result, congratulated me on my first successes on the path to becoming a real ninja ... Although, behind these congratulations, I felt carefully hidden fear and anxiety. Apparently, he did not expect any success from me in this field, and now he was worried, and I did not hurt myself during my attempts to feel the chakra. Well, that's how I, at least, deciphered his emotions.

At the same time, his concern somehow imperceptibly passed on to me, which is why I even began to think about visiting the medical center at the academy… But as practice has shown, local Irenin Shinobi specializing in medical techniques could not cure or even detect any serious injuries. Their lot is to treat bruises and bruises, and to give herbal tinctures in case of something more serious. That's what they told me when I came to the infirmary with my question...

Although, perhaps, not the best attitude towards my person played a role here. Still, for most of the villagers, I was akin to a small-town horror story and just a freak that bothers the eyes of all honest and respectable villagers… Yeah, and after all, I couldn't get into a normal hospital. I am not an active shinobi, and I did not have money for paid treatment or even just a health check.

So, in fact, I had to hope for the best, continuing to meditate and get used to new sensations for myself. Fortunately, this stage of mastering the chakra was already much more cheerful, I moved from the dead point, gradually feeling my own chakra more and more clearly. So, during one particularly exhausting run through the village, I was even able to feel the bubbling of my own chakra without any meditation.

And during meditation, my feelings became more and more complete and voluminous. With time and practice, I began to feel better and better the "routes" along which my chakra flowed. And my theoretical knowledge about the same chakra channels, tanketsu and the chakresystem as a whole gradually found more and more practical confirmations. And in general, the information obtained in the library for once began to bring real benefits…

Although, it has not affected my daily life in any way so far. Yes, now, burning with enthusiasm, I almost fell into meditation at any free moment, which is why my level of hyperactivity gradually subsided. Well, or maybe it was me who finally got used to the new body, arranging daily races around the village for myself, after which I was not drawn to an adventure for some time, and I myself was completely collected and calm, even if I was a little tired.

And no, I did not perceive such runs as full-fledged workouts. The benefits of them, of course, were, and not a small benefit, I want to note. But still, the main goal of these runs is to lose steam and excess energy, from which I was already frankly sick. It's like spermatoxicosis in adolescence, only without a wild desire for the same, yeah. But the essence is the same, I wanted something all the time, I wanted and couldn't sit still, which is why I suffered...

But I haven't mentioned my personal training yet, which, too, in theory, should have taken a lot of strength out of me… But in practice, I could withstand much more serious loads. It's just that my caution still did not allow me to increase the pace of training. Moreover, I have already gone beyond my own training program, starting to bend and bend almost like a professional gymnast in a matter of weeks.

And let me exaggerate it a little, but the twine of all possible types really gave in to me in just a few weeks of training. And in general, the flexibility of my new body very quickly reached the level after which I no longer knew where to develop further ... Because I could literally scratch my heel behind my ear, which was already some limit of my imagination. Because of what I had to spend more time training in coordination of movements… Nowadays it looks more like attempts to dance dances unknown to this world to the village.

Although, such "dances" were also unknown to my past world. I came up with all sorts of movements for my training right on the go, after which I could spin and spin for hours in a small clearing in a local park. I had plenty of strength and energy for such tricks, but my legs still sometimes got tangled. And I still often lost my balance, performing some very strange pirouettes… Which appeared in my head during the next attack of fun and hyperactivity.

Oh, I would like to deal with the control of my own chakra as soon as possible. It seems to me that all my problems are precisely because of this miraculous energy. Otherwise, where else can so much strength and energy come from in a baby's body? And my stamina with regeneration was the easiest to explain just the same chakra… For the expression "everything heals like a dog" did not even come close to describing my ability to get rid of most of the bruises and abrasions received during my races and workouts in a matter of hours.

Yes, we need to push a little more with meditations. And then this constant desire to break into a dance has already bored me. A little more, and I really will turn into the canonical Naruto, who disrupts lessons and draws all sorts of obscenities on the faces of the Hokage… And after all, I just leveled relations with Iruka a little, slightly tightening my own grades and stopping disrupting Tom's lessons.… Well, almost.
