In One Punch {Training}

Sending Chakra down the bottom of his feet once again Gaël's stepped out onto the water, he felt the energy below his feet repelling him away from the water ever so slightly. Just enough to keep him from sinking but still able to walk along the surface, it was an incredible feat to those not versed in Ninjutsu but to Shinobi it was a basic yet essential skill to master. Gaël's regulated the flow of Chakra through his body in a practiced manner, many hours had gone into getting to this level of control.

It was at this point he began to pick up his pace along the water, sprinting on the surface kicking up droplets as he set each foot down. This movement further unbalanced the liquid surface he was running across, for a moment his footing faltered but a quick centering of self fixed that. Gaël dashed to and fro on the man-made river, occasionally he would spring off the river and back on again to keep his adjustments to the chakra he was supplying to his feet constantly tweaking. Gaël kept this up well until the sun began to set, he had taken an occasional break to recover before starting up all over again and it seemed he was eager to stick around all night.

Throughout the night Gaël and Gin were training, with this day drawing to a close that Gaël had grunted. The Gin had sighed outwardly, and said," We will finish this up tomorrow bud bring your jumping shoes too."Gaël had nodded his head in approval as he called it a day and trudged his way home, without any incident he was left in relative peace once he arrived home despite being in so late. He jumps into his bath after he had removed his clothes quickly taking his bath. As soon as he got out he dresses in his night attire while hanging up his clothes from today out to dry. It was time to rest for training would continue the next day.

Today saw Gaël in the same ground as before, this time amongst a large series of blocky pillars that created a grid-like pattern. It was here that Gaël and Gin would begin his next training exercise, channelling chakra to his feet he began bouncing around from pillar to pillar increasing in speed until he lost his footing. The sound of his feet crashing into each pillar left a large thudding sound as he pushed away from each stone surface to land on another, once his footing was lost he would leap towards safety or attempt to regain his footing on a different pillar.

Each time he fell he would reset the speed of it back to a slower tempo and begin to work his way up again, he had seen he do elder use this method in his training it was some kind of punishment system that would just increase the amount of training you needed to do it also meant Gaël training was more tiresome though.

The Shinobi would proceed to add acrobatics into his movements, performing turns mid-air and somersaults as he darted from pillar to pillar. Gaël once again felt his grasp over chakra usage tightening, becoming more refined the more he used it perhaps the training Gin had task himself was achievable after all. He still had plenty of time to achieve some results, not only did he want to improve his abilities with ninjutsu but also his repertoire of jutsu alongside it.

Gin had suggested that he attempt to increase his ability with Katon, Gaël intended to do that he did this by taking a step further than that and branch out into a new style of Jutsu alongside increasing his understanding of Katon. Gaël bounced from pillar to pillar making his way of the central pillar, standing up on the stone plateau he admired the view of the training area from here. Reaching into a pouch he pulled out a scroll, it had a red band around the center and was embossed with an artistic flame on the center of the band. 'The Fundamentals of Katon' was the title of this particular scroll. The title of this second scroll 'Raiton Basics for Beginners', Gaël set down on the stone pillar. Earlier this morning Gin had offered him a basic scroll that gives some explanation of Katon jutsu. However, he had made the Uchiha promise to give it back upon finishing up at the training field today.


He had been aware for some time of his affinity for the Katon-style ninjutsu, it was only natural to consider that he was an Uchiha clan member. He began to read from the Katon scroll, since learning ninjutsu Gaël just like all the other Uchiha found the fire style to come naturally to them. The more he read the more fascinated he became with Ninjutsu as a whole concept. A desire for more Ninjutsu began to bloom within Gaël, he wondered just how many styles were out there.

"Fire Release is very often used offensively, typically it is cast by kneading chakra in the body into flames that the user breathes from the mouth." Gaël tended to have a habit of reading aloud. "Simpler applications of Fire Release include creating a stream of fire or alternatively breaking the stream into bursts of flames. Once produced, the fire can be shaped or otherwise manipulated, but exerting such control requires careful skill." 

Getting more and more invested in the scroll as he continued, Gaël's gaze seemed to sear the very page. "The fireball Jutsu is a common technique amongst users of this style, while most beginners are unable to produce a sizeable or devastating flame there are those who have mastered this technique bringing it to new heights some of the notable practitioners of this style live here within Kirigakure No Sato." 

Standing up from reading the scrolls, the young shinobi took a deep breath inhaling and exhaling slowly. Gaël began to channel Chakra all around his body, attempting to push himself to his very limits while maintaining efficient use of his Chakra. Feeling the energy swirl around him, invisible to his eyes but still very much real and present. The exhaustion began to set in as his breathing became labored, Gaël's body began to feel heavy as sweat began to trickle down his body. Muscles ached and bones creaked the strain of such Chakra use was starting to take its toll on the young Uchiha, at last relenting when the feeling became unbearable. Gaël's collapsed to his knees feeling weak, taking the time to rest he read more of his Katon scroll before heading home for the day. This concluded his second day of training, it had certainly been a tough one on him this time as even the comfort of his bed was not enough to wipe away the aches and pains he was suffering with. Eventually, sleep took him, exhaustion being enough to let him sleep soundly.

But none of that matters right now Gaël wishes nothing but to earn his keep and complete his mission. He wanted nothing but to uphold the village structure and protect those who consider his family. Maybe later down the line he will open up to the people of this village, and start to network more however, for now, he set his mind on training and learning. He could never go wrong with that right?
