Chapter 21 : Chakra Affinity

Aunty is scary, I knew that thanks to growing up alongside Shikamaru, but that day, I am not sure which curse spirit took possession of her body, I am still shaking. 

I don't think that I will ever forget to write back to her if I ever end up taking a long mission from now on.

No wonder both Shikamaru and uncle are wiped. 

Sigh. 

Anyway, it's time to go back to my grind. After my last visit to the land of snow, I have realized that no matter what I still lack in a decisive powerful attack. I need something powerful. 

Earlier I didn't care becuase I thought I could just capture the enemy and then use the Shikigami's but after the last mission, it became clear to me that it's not always possible. 

So I have decided to refrain from taking any mission for the time being and focus on training. I have enough money thanks to the last mission anyway. 

I need a powerful technique. Something which can do more damage. We need to unlock more powerful Shikigami's as well. 

Usually for a Genin or any ninja for that matter, finding powerful Jutsu is hard. This is why the bloodline Kekkei Genkai are so sought after in this world. With an affinity towards power, one can become more powerful. Not to mention they have knowledge about that particular power thanks to that power has been passed down in the clan for generations. 

Like Bayakugan, the family created an entire fighting style around those eyes. 

In this regard, I am a little better because any other Naruto fan I too know how to train in one of the most iconic techniques in Naruto. 

The Rasengan.

But the problem is that I can't learn that technique yet. It needs too much chakra to pull it off. It's not like I didn't try it. But only after a few tries, before even being able to move the water balloon on my hand, let alone blast it, I was out of chakra. 

It took too much chakra. 

I have to wait a little before learning that technique. And till then I have no other way but to find an alternative. 

And thus I after waking up today and putting my clone to sealing work again, much to his dismay, I run off to purchase a chakra paper for myself. 

This paper in Naruto shows one's chakra affinity towards elements. That was my plan for the time being. If I can't train in Rasengan for the time being, then I can only go for training in chakra nature transformation. 

I took the paper and poured my chakra into it, but nothing happened. So I put more and observed the paper with intent. After some time I saw the paper was getting wet, and turning black. 

Hmmm... Water and Yin. At least that is what I believe after seeing the paper turning black. However, I will still ask Shikaku later on to make sure. 

For the time being, let's focus on water. I honestly wanted Lightning. That is the most useful affinity but gotta work with whatever I have. 

I have zero idea how to go about training this affinity. 

Sigh, seems like I have to visit the library again. 

.

.

.

After a quick visit to the library, I learned that chakra paper does turn black if one has Yin affinity but when I went there, I didn't find it. Anything related to charka nature transformation is considered as advanced knowledge and is kept away from Genin like me. 

Sigh. 

So now where the hell I am gonna find a teacher who can teach me water chakra transformation?

I should try asking Shikaku, but I don't think he gonna teach me that right now. Especially after what happened in the last mission. Though only Aunty nagged me but he was too angry with me. And that happened only yesterday. 

Nah, I rather go and find Kisame to teach me over that. Not worried about Shikaku here, but if Aunty learns that. I can only shiver at what happened yesterday. That woman is terrifying. 

Women indeed are troublesome creatures.

Hmm...maybe I can ask the Hokage? But I don't think so that I can just disturb him for this. It's a different thing if I asked him while talking with him during mission briefing or something but can't enter his office just for this. 

...

One minute. There is one person who can help me. 

Iruka. 

He too is a Chunin and being a teacher he should at least know how to train in water style. Yeah, that could work for sure. I should visit him after the Academy hours. 

Okay, let's do that. 

For the time being, let's start with some different training. Besides the natural affinity, the only other thing is unlocking the shikigami's. 

Now that I have time, I plan to unlock as many as I can. Though I most likely won't be able to use them in front of others but having the option to use them is better than not having them. 

Alright, let's do that. 

.

.

.

After making sure what I needed to do, I started planning on how to do it. I have till now unlocked or exorcised 4 of the 10 shikigami. While all Shikigami's have their own powers, but out of all of them are 4 special Shikigami which I want. 

Of course one of them is Mahoraga which I can't have, and one in which I already have, that being NUE. 

The last two are the Max Elephant and Round Deer. 

If I don't count Mahoraga, for obvious reasons, then these three are the most useful Shikigami's. 

Nue can use Lightning, Max Elephant can use Water and Round Deer can heal. This alone makes them really handy shikigami to have, but there is much more to this. In the manga, Sukuna uses Max Elephant's water without summoning the elephant when he is fighting Gojo. 

Now he only uses this power once and with only Max Elephant's water, but I believe that it's possible to do with all three mentioned shikigami. 

But I have to test it out. And to do that I need to first exorcise the last two shikigami. 

Let's start with Max Elephant. It's heavy and big. It lacks mobility and even Megumi in the anime was able to capture him. So it shouldn't be that hard. 

But still let's not temp it, I don't want a pink elephant wreaking havoc in Konoha. 

To handle this problem I spend some time to find the best place to summon this guy. And that being a Bog. 

With his weight, that was the best place to summon him. 

Yeah, I play dirty like that. 

To find a bog, I come to the forest of death. This place is dangerous but with Nue. I didn't even have to enter the forest. And when it comes to finding a bog. Well, that was pretty easy. I Summon Rabbits and send them all around the forest. 

They quickly found a bog for me, with their quantity, it was quite efficient to do honestly. 

This technique really has much potential. Just I have to put my mind to it. 

After landing I used water walking to walk on the bog and stood with a new hand sign. Pouring my chakra I waited. 

Blink blink...

I pour more. 

Blink...

Hell with this summon, how much chakra will it eat? 

I poured more and more chakra to summon Max Elephant but it was taking too much. Almost half of my chakra. 

'Shit....' 

I just gritted my teeth and poured the chakra until my shadow finally started to move. And the a Elephant finally appear from my shadow.
