Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jin began to spin once more, the same familiar stance was used to stabalize himself as he felt the ground beneath him scrape against his feet... wait was that it. He focused a small amount of chakra under his feet as he had when he learned to water-walk and although it did not levitate him exactly it did reduce the friction caused by his own body scraping against the ground. His spin almost doubled in speed. He then found that the faster he spun the easier it was t foucs his chakra out towards his sheilding for the heavinly spin, he grinned, he was getting used to it and in no time would have mastered the technique.

He steadily increased the amount of Chakra applied to the sheild, building up its reflecting power. He also steadily increased the amount beneath his feet, making it not only easier to spin but easier to keep his balance as well. However soon he felt a churning within his stomach and had to stop, his lunch feeling as if it where going to revisit him should he continue much longer.
Jin stooped over waiting for the heaving to end, then took a few deep breaths of air, waiting for the dust from his spinning to settle and for his expeneded chakra to return to his body.

Jin positioned himself at the lowest arc of where the log would swing, this would garentee it had its maximum momentum when it struck him and as such put his new jutsu to a good solid test. He positioned himself for the final time and began to spin, then he focused the chakra under his feet to reduce the friction and speed up his spinning. Once at a comfotable speed he activated his next Jutsu, Byakugan, to allow him to easily see the rope and begin to target it with his shuriken.

He took aim and flung his shuriken outward, the small tip striking the rope and splitting it in two. With a slight groan he watched the log give way as it swung towards him. He gritted his teeth and pushed a sudden burst of chakra outwards the sheild flarring up in preperation for the blow. As the log struck Jin shook slightly, but grinned as he watched the log shudder and shake as it was tossed back, its front end splintered as if it had been rammed into a wall.

He stopped his spinning and ran over to inspect the log, "finally!" he thought with glee, he was getting stronger faster than he could have ever imagined.

Gatz spent an hour making the vines into a crude drag-net of shorts. After he had finished he waded out into the shallows, from where he would toss the net out and dreg the bottom by walking back to the shore. It was slow, tiring work, and Gatz was soon sweating dispite the cool water. After several hours though, he figured he was just about done with his job.
Gatz looked out at the murky water of the lake. All his dredging had stirred the silt on the bottom up, but once that settled, the lake should be in fairly pristine condition once more. And if not, at least he'd be able to see the stuff on the bottom he had missed. To pass the time until that happened, though, Gatz started porting the man-made trash from the lake back to town, where he then dropped it into the nearest trash container. After his last trip, he found that the water had cleared enough for him to dive for the few bits he had missed. Dry and redressing himself in his nomral outfit, he carried those few items back to town, congrautlating himself on a job well done.

Jin focused his chakra and used his Bushin no jutsu technique. It would allow him a more focused exercise training after he got his accuracy down with the technique. Each of the clones helped set the logs up in various areas around the clearing as well, some in trees, others on rocks and some merely far away. They where set up in many differant positions so that Jin could get a good idea of what he could quickly asses what aspects of the technique he needed to learn most.

Jin began to force more Chakra through his hands, carefully molding the invisible force of air around. He punched an open palmed strike for ward, only to see a log wobble. He sighed "not nearly enough" then began to build up the force once again, this time doing so slightly faster, a minor improvment. He thrust his hand forward once more this time the log tipping just enough to fall over. Now he needed to focus on gaining more power, these logs where no where near the size or weight of an average opponent and thus would do not much more than merly ruffling there hair.

Jin felt the chakra in his body controlling several large pockets of air, he quickly expelled it shooting an open palm in front of him at a distant log, a loud sound of wood being smashed rung through the air as several peices flew above the tree tops. Wasting no time Jin preformed the same manuver with equally if not better results on the reamaining logs, each quickly shattering within mere seconds of each other. He then nodded, he was ready for what he had intended the clones for. Each of the clones positioned themselves into combat readiness, they knew what was coming.

The clone behind Jin charged at his backside suddenly turning into a log as Jin sent forth another burst of air. "Damnit, I must have missed him change before Byakugan kicked in!" He looked around trying to find the little feind yet was distracted as his remaining clones all came at him at once. He focused the last bit of his chakra summoning up a powerfull force in the ends of each of his palms as the clones dog piled him.
