"All You Gotta Do Is Believe."
Ash nodded once again. The Thread Walk looked cool, so he went with that one first. Ouka still wanted to fight, so he would fight and practice at the same time. She threw a kunai at him, one with wire rapped around it. A simple duck to the left avoided it. Time to try it out. Once the kunai stabbed into the wall and Ouka was still holding onto the wire, he jumped on it and sprinted down the wire, though he fell off, severely uncoolly, but immedietly jumped to his feet.
He swung his wooden sword furiously at Ouka, and in doing so, caused a minute amount of wind to increase the range of his attack. That wasn't nearly enough, though, not for his liking. Then he had an idea. The guy was able to do it, so why shouldn't he have been able to? He'd memorized the guy's attack sequence for that... what did he call it... Calligraphy. His movements were instant, but choppy. Ouka saw through his plan and easily countered all attacks. When Ouka swung again at him, this time with the wooden sword she kicked up from the ground and began to wield, he took a strong footing. It blocked most of the blow with ease, but his feet gave in at the last second. He rolled back to evade the follow-up from the girl, but she wasn't going to end there. She assaulted him again with an even greater strength. This time, though, his block didn't budge an inch. He then instantly barrel rolled upward and stood on her wooden blade, straight up and without fault. From there, he hopped slightly to push Ouka's blade down and did a little five hit combo, his version of Calligraphy. His blade could only be seen by a Gennin when the blade was still at the end of every hit. To top it off, for every hit, wind hit Ouka as well, extending the range even more than before.

(Thank you for helping my chakra training, lol.)
"Good good, Ill teach you the last techniques you can learn at this level currently, we will be on the same plane almost as I have only mastered up to Jounin level with this weapon style too. However you will not be able to perform these techniques in battle as easily or as many times until you get stronger, Id say may two of them will be in your range at this time. Heed my words when I say to hold them as trump cards, because even if you train your chakra extensively performing any of them twice or worse all of them once would severely deplete your chakra reserve and possibly get you killed." He waved off his own words as he finished drinking some water and offered the boy a drink as well as Ouka,"Its not as tasty as sake but I promise it will be much more refreshing after so much training than anything else."
He gave them a small rest as they would need all their chakra for these last techniques,"Now for the final stage you can learn as a Gennin." He drew out his katana and gestured to watch,"There are alot here so Ill teach you four at a time, we will take a break in between so you can rest, you may not think it now but you will need it. So here we go, watch closely I will only perform a technique once for you, you shouldnt need to see it twice. Swordslinger, Illusory Double, Sensory Information, Twin Blade," he started with a basic stab that was only followed by a second blinding stab almost invisible to the two. He then turned to strike a clone behind him with out even trying to locate it, it seemed he had sensed its chakra or heard it or something minute. He then performed what seemed like extension but with much more force causing the air to lag behind and strike as if a full blade. As it hit the wooden dummy the two attacks shattered the dummy into tiny splinters, it was likely awe inspiring to see such amazing techniques being performed for a Gennin to learn. "This next technique is one of the strongest signature moves of this style, it can hinge a battle if used properly, watch closely. I want you to find 5 different blades to use for practice, I mean real ones all different, then watch me."
He drew his first blade as he stood surrounded by five different wooden dummies, he closed his eyes swiftly and used caligraphy on the first dummy. The strikes were perfect yet blinding, and in yet another instant he had drawn a different blade and sheathed the first performing caligraphy with the second but in a different way yet still perfect. And then a third blade even faster, no a fourth, no a fifth before their eyes at near blinding speeds and flawlessly no less. The fifth was sheathed instantly and as he opened his eyes and jumped back the dummies all fell to pieces of wooden slag before their eyes, the attack only occurring in five seconds time. "...." He was silent, Howaido didnt need to say anything the technique spoke for him, he picked up the water and drank a sip, the most amazing part though was, he wasnt even winded!
[Stage 4 taught=6 posts per technique]
○ Swordslinger
Simple :: B-Rank
The rapid changing and using of blades during a battle has become recently known as “swordslinging” within the martial world due to its resemblance to certain methods of using long-range weaponry. Within the Shunkan no Hagane style, however, this is a technique taken very seriously, and as such it is only given to those who have mastered the style up to this Stage and have experience using at least five weapons. The technique involves rapidly unsheathing, attacking, and sheathing weapons without pause, constantly changing mode and form of attack, and results in the user’s ability to use techniques without any extra physical cost.
• Extension, Calligraphy practiced using at least five other bladed weapons.
○ Illusory Double
Simple :: B-Rank
A close range attack, the user goes for a direct stab at the opponent. By pulling the blade slightly back immediately afterward, the user can then strike another nearby point very shortly after the first strike. This technique is fast enough that those who are of the same rank as the user cannot see the second strike.
• Basic Stab.
○ Sensory Information
Simple :: B-Rank
A passive technique that allows the user to judge the location of an incoming object or person, but not the location, based on sounds and disturbances made in the environment.
○ Twin Blade
Simple :: B-Rank
Due to the user’s strength, the air around the blade sharpens similar to the Extension technique. However, due to the user’s speed and proficiency with blades, the air blade hits after the actual blade with enough force to crack or shatter most blades.
• Calligraphy, Extension learned.
[Stop here]
○ Brush Stroke
Simple :: B-Rank
A series of quick cuts that eclipse the Calligraphy technique in both speed and depth, but are much more difficult to work with. The cuts now pierce all the way through muscles, and can cut in to bone. This technique can only be seen by people with a speed rank higher than the user’s own.
• Calligraphy learned.
○ Hydra Strike
Simple :: B-Rank
An enhancement of the Twin Blade. Instead of only one additional strike, the user can now launch several in a row without any loss in speed or power.
• Twin Blade learned.
○ Disarming Two
Simple :: B-Rank
The user aims for the point just beyond the focal point of the opponent’s weapon of choice, be it metal or flesh, and swings strongly for that point. Once the user’s blade connects, the opponent’s blade breaks in two and the hilt of the blade is sent flying. If the opponent holds on to his or her blade too strongly, the bone fingers in the hand(s) holding on to the hilt crack.
○ Deflection Two
Simple :: B-Rank
In the early stages of an opponent’s Taijutsu or Kenjutsu attack, the user raises his or her blade and alters the course of the incoming attack so that it is rendered useless, allowing for a quick counterattack by the user.
○ Advance of Steel
Simple :: B-Rank
A very quick forward movement that doubles the strength and effectiveness of all offensive and defensive techniques and makes them very difficult to dodge by anyone of the user’s speed rank or lower.

"All You Gotta Do Is Believe."
These would take more time to master, and he knew already that he wouldn't ave enough stamina to do everything in one go. For now, he'd just do what he could. Ouka's examination of the techniques would half the time required; it was like having a clone do what he did and then send the information, only this way was instant and no chakra required for the clone jutsu.
First up, the cool one. Ouka picked up a kunai and threw it at Ash, who had his eyes closed. In his mind, he was judging the distances through hearing. The first three, he got close, but not dead on. Ouka's sight was telling him how far off he was with each passing of the kunai. The forth, fifth, and sixth were all parried by Ash's wooden sword. He grinned. He'd gotten the hang of it. When he closed his eyes, he could see sound vibrations. It was like seeing them without actually seeing them.
Next for the Swordslinger. Ouka was already ahead of him, tossing him four other wooden swords in sheathes, and another sheath for the sword he already had. Left waist, right waist, left back, right back, back waist. All of the sheathes were secure. Now he got into a crouched position with the original sword pointed at Ouka. He then charged her. This was just the Calligraphy, but with sword swaps, right? That's what he thought, until he tried to swap out the blades after the second attack and Ouka knocked him on his butt. The sheath swapping was too slow, so, he had another idea. He stood up, then charged again. This time there was no resheathing. All six attacks were lightning fast. At the end, he'd hitten her six times, lightly, and five of the six wooden swords just now hit the ground. Not a technique he'd often use, but useful if he ever began to carry around knifes and stuff like that.
Now for the Twin Blade. It was just an addon of Extension. Ouka held up her own wooden sword, and Ash went in for the attack. He swung about five times, all shifting air, but not to the quality it needed. Ouka parried and swung five times herself, each becoming more powerful, with the last block being shattered by Ouka's Twin Blade attack. If Ash hadn't ducked out of the way, he'd been hit by the wind blade attack. He sighed. He'd almost been killed by his own familiar.... this wasn't right.
He sat on his butt, panting slightly. So was Ouka. "I think I'v only got a little bit left for right now. Mind if we call it for right now?"

Ouka immediately pounced the guy. "Yes please! Oi! Ashi! I like this guy! He knows how to treat his students: work and food!" Ash sighed and stood up. "I guess."

The real San walked into the University and made his way for the usual spot. It took a moment or two to get there, but once he had made it to his desired location, the chunnin sat down and quickly began to remove items from his Burden golem. In whole he had removed a rather large scroll and many kunai and shuriken. Once they where all layed out, one by one San began using his ink and brush to form 2 seal variations on the handles of the blade. Then biting his thumb, began to write the summoning in the scroll. Then one by one he sealed the kunai into the scroll. Once finished, he rolled it up and placed it back into his burden golem.

Next San began to use his same bitten thumb to began drawing 2 different seals on his wrist. Then, biting the other one, Formed 2 more seals on his other wrist. These summoning seals where useful cause they where linked to a wearhouse with a stash of kunai with Donzou's seal 1, a huge windmill shuriken with both Donzou's seal 1 and 2, Kunai with Donzou's seal 2 on it, and kunai with explosion tags on them.

San, after finishing his summoning skill, began working on the chakra minipulation for his next skill. Mimicing light would rather difficult but one he had seen several ninja do before. He focused on his hara and first began to have it envelope him. The chakra formed an invisible field, making a perfect "skin" only a few milimeters away from his actual skin. The Satetsu focused and concentrated as much as he could, filling in any holes he could feel in his new chakra cloak. He had felt something similar when he learned the change technique, so this was slightly more difficult but still achievable. He had watched Gouchou0san use it many times, and felt he as a chunnin was next in line to learn it. As a protector and soon to be promoted ninja, he needed to be stleathy. Honestly, it woulc aid alot of his tactics and antics in combat. "3 steps ahead of their htree steps ahead." Being invisible was one way to greatly achieve that. Relaxing and retunring his hara into his body, San sat down again with a huge grin on his face. Legendary squad one. He had lead his village through the chunnin exams, and was now more prepared for this bandit that now plauged his village. With a few more techniques, he was a force to be reconed with.

San removed a single scroll from his burden golem to finish his last couple techniques. He took out a small piece of paper along with his ink and paintbrush. The chunnin sat down again, placing the piece of paper flat on the ground. Next to the piece of paper the Satetsu put his ink and quickly dipped his brush into it. In a few well practiced moves, San wrote out a seal tag for a toxin that would affect the senses of the opponent. The chunnin took a kunai from his holder and wrapped the tag around the handle. He took it and levitated it in his hand for a moment, checking his new found weapon for a moment before he would test it. Drawing the vector with his magnetic chakra, San launched the kunai across the room. The kunai landed with a metallic thud in the opposite wall and the tag released. There was no tell, no explosion, no warning to anyone who would be around that area. it was a great weapon now and san would use it best he could.

San then began to focus his energy inward, to open his minds eye. He quickly ran through a set of meditative ideas to help him set his mindset for the jutsu. The technique would allow him to identify his enemy from chakra strength, distance, and even number of enemies. It would be a useful tracking skill, and one he would probably use often and soon. He opened his mind and allowed it to stretch for 10 kilometers in a circle with him as a focal point. He felt everything around, his brother and his clone downstairs, the Kazekage's office, even his other friends nearby. Rather effeciently, San then moved his mind back into its normal state. Taking a moment to stretch again, San leaned backwards while pushing his hips forward to contort and stretch the spine. Then bending forward, he grabbed the scroll and rolled it back up and placed it back into his bag. he had one more jutsu to learn before he was a complete chunnin. It was rather exciting. He was almost a jounin....

San's sensor jutsu picked up a newcommer. It was....HIM! He was at the residential district. In a black flash, the chunnin was moving off to the location of his attacker.

San entered University and walked over to his usual spot. Now as a jounin, San had alot of training and very little time to do it in. He had To learn alot of jutsu as well as upgrade some of his older favorites to newer stronger ones. Thankfully, the ANBU headquarters had given him the training materials as well as the manuals to learn what he needed. For this, he was thankful. San needed to learn a little more abut genjutsu, as it was a close weakness of his. The Kazekage had already taught him using the blindfold to eliminate his sight, and the possibilities of sight oriented genjutsu. Also, it increased his mental ability and increased his other senses to compensate for the lack of sight. Honestly, he was making great use of it. But what if his opponent was still using a genjutsu, and San could turn it around on him? San ran his hand over the piece of paper, and began to form the chakra minipulation needed to do so. His imaginary opponent would have thought they had him undetected in a genjutsu, but in a dance of Iron Sand San would dissolve and the sand would go away in the wind. Then rather quickly, the opponent would feel constricted and San and a few Iron Sand trendles would appear wrapped around him holding him still. This was all still a genjutsu, but a useful counter to any who where trying to control him using an illusionary technique. Also, with the added defense of the Bonds golem, his team could easily alert him to be able to use this technique even if he thought it was real. THATS how real ANBU went to work in combat. Now that San's responisbilites had increased, his skill and intensity of training would increase. San thoguht for a moment about his brother, a rather skilled genjutsu user and a skilled ninja even at gennin, and thought about how his training with Howaido would be going. Howaido was one of San's best friends, and was about as loyal as they came. Together, especially as Oinin and ANBU, maybe now they could safely defend the village. This thought drove San to practice harder, learn faster. He would not Fail again! The village, and the Kage, put there faith in him.

Howaidos clone entered to wave at San,"I thought Id get started training your brother so as to not waste any time." He knew they would be distracting San, his friend was focused on getting stronger that he knew, and he had been inducted as an Anbu. That was good, they couldnt very well both be Anbu or both Oinin, they needed to share their talents with both organizations or the village would end up lopsided in power, he chuckled thinking of it.
