Chapter 110: Learning Water Style Jutsus

Ten shadow clones picked a jutsu to learn one by one.

The shadow clones went hard on work as they started learning the water jutsus while Law calmly sipped on his orange juice as he watched on the sidelines.

He was not being lazy. He was contemplating about how to use these jutsus effectively. What creative ways he can use them? And how can he upgrade them in the future? Learning all of this stuff was as necessary as learning the jutsu. If you don't know when to use the jutsu in battle then what is the point of learning the jutsu?

The first jutsu that the shadow clones started practicing was the hidden mist jutsu.

As the clones perfected the jutsu, the mist started flowing through the entire training ground.

'The range is not bad. The chakra required to create mist that would cover a lot of area is quite low compared to what I expected.' Ken thought

Using the earth tremor jutsu, he tried to sense his shadow clones and he did manage to sense the movement of his clones.

'That Zabuza got famous for this jutsu? This jutsu troubled Kakashi Hatake of the Sharingan? He had 1000 jutsus, right? He could have used this same jutsu to sense through Zabuza. That silent assassination technique should not be much big deal then. But there must be something about Zabuza's technique that made it even difficult for Kakashi to sense Zabuza's movements.'

'Well, the anime's power scaling sucks. Kishimoto made the characters pretty weak in the first part of Naruto. The power scaling tremendously increased in the Shippuden. And in Boruto, the power scaling got into the Dragon Ball Z realm. I can't believe how anime depicted individual character strengths. It seems that while I can rely on the plot of the anime, I can not on the power levels of people. They might be much stronger or weaker in reality.' Ken thought

Ken continued to practice the jutsu as he came to a realization 'I can't tell if I could freeze the mist or not yet. I can't wait to try it soon.'

Days past as Ken's shadow clones practiced one jutsu after another jutsu. After hidden mist jutsu, they started learning Water wall jutsu and Water Bullet jutsu. While learning the jutsu was easy, reducing the hand signs of the jutsu took most of the shadow clones time.

The Water Release: Water Forge jutsu took most of the time to train. Covering the sword with flowing water that rotated at a high speed was quite tough to learn. The scroll stated that it was even tougher to learn than covering the sword with lightning or wind. He also had to reduce the hand signs to such a degree that he did not need to use them.

He wanted to immediately cover the sword with water. Using hand signs during a kenjutsu fight would not be a good move. He wanted to cover the sword immediately with water in a fight to surprise his enemy and to increase the lethality of his kenjutsu.

Water tentacles jutsu was quite simple to learn. As his mastery increased with the jutsu, he could create an extra tentacle up to the limit of 8. Yes, he could create more than 8 but it was pretty difficult to control more than 8 and the extra tentacles might hamper the movement of the other tentacles.

Ken equipped his shadow clone who had managed to form and control five tentacles till now with Kunais and instructed the shadow clone to fight another shadow clone who used two swords.

The clone managed to only block and could not retaliate in front of the onslaught. While the clone blocked four kunai, the fifth kunai struck him in the neck, making the clone dissipate.

'Who needs the eight tails to do killer Bee's acrobat kenjutsu when you can form your own tentacles.' Ken smirked as he thought of equipping all the tentacles with swords and then doing a sword dance, a dance of death with his enemies.

But then he frowned 'The chakra consumption for controlling each extra water tentacle is too high. I wish my reserves would grow already. Grandpa says they grow the most in teen years and I am still far from it.'

Water Release: Hiding in Water Jutsu turned out to be simple but even an experienced genin could find him after seeing the water puddle where he was hiding. Ken only wanted to have this jutsu as a foundation to jump inside the ice mirrors and it seemed that it would not be a difficult thing to do after all.

Ken had most expectations from the Water style: Hail jutsu. It was an A-rank jutsu after all. At first glance, it looked

like that water gun spell of the second Mizukage but on a much larger scale.

The jutsu gave a lot of headaches to Ken. The jutsu used the moisture in the air or water vapor in the air to create hail or in other words larger water bullets. He can just spit some water in the air and use it too.

The strength of these water bullets was nothing like the Mizukage's jutsu. It was possible to at most crush through a tree or an earth wall jutsu but not anything like met The chakra requirement was not high either for just a single bullet. But giving the direction to even a single bullet was tough let alone a dozen.

The Jutsu could even target his ally at its current stage. Ken gave up on this jutsu after spending weeks trying to perfect it.

'No wonder Grandpa kept this scroll in the C rank section. The jutsu was useless and was only useful as a reference point on how to use water jutsu using water moisture in the air. There must be a way to perfect the jutsu.' Ken thought as he finished the last of his water jutsu that he wanted to learn.

It was time to learn wind style jutsus now. Two months have passed since he started learning the jutsus while also reducing their hand signs. Of course, Ken was not only learning the jutsus but also doing missions simultaneously.
