Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yoshi had finished his technique with Orochimaru. He wanted to take some time to look for his brother in the Afterlife. He made all the clones that he knew possible. He sent them all in different directions. They would later bring anyone that looked like his brother. Yoshi took some time to rest his body. Making all those clones would really put a strain on his body. He would need to rest for about an hour before he could use any techniques again. Orochimaru came by. “Hurry and get up. I have an important lesson to be teaching you. This is a very deadly technique. Its kill rate is one hundred percent.”
1
Yoshi gasped at what he said. “It kills everyone that it is used on?” He did not know what the technique was. Orochimaru did not tell him what it people call this technique.
Orochimaru cut his sentence. “It doesn’t only kill the person that it is used on, it also kills the user. The technique is called…” He had a small pause. This increased the suspense so much that Yoshi bent over to listen to what he was about to say. “It is called…Double Snake Assassination.” Yoshi looked like he lost all interest. He knew that technique.
Yoshi cut his sentence. “I know what that technique does. I just forgot about it.”
2
Orochimaru smiled at Yoshi’s response. “You were so interested until I told you the name. Next time I will just tell you what it does. You will be so interested that you will remember every detail. At the very end of the lesson, I will tell you what the technique’s name is. I hope that you do not know any of my other techniques. As I was saying, this technique has killed everyone that has used it. The only person it has not killed is one of my first students. I put a Cursed Seal on her so that she could never use that technique on me. She tried to use it but it did not work on me. Her seal ended up activating.”
3
He stopped for on brief moment. “Since then, her seal hurts whenever she comes near me. So, this is what the hand seals look like.” He was about to show Yoshi when he realized that he needs two people for this technique. He was smart enough to make a clone. He then told the clones to do the technique. The second they did it, they died.
Yoshi paused. “I need someone to use my victim to do the technique?” Yoshi was puzzled. Orochimaru nodded. “How do I get close enough to do the technique?”
Orochimaru said. “Think of something. I know that you are very smart.” He thought.
4
He had a good idea. He was amazed that he thought of this first. “It will not be too hard for you. You could possibly use your Shadow Imitation so they won’t disobey.”
Yoshi liked that idea. He had only one problem. “If I can catch them in my Shadow Imitation, then I could just end it there. Just show me the seal again and I will make a trap for the person.” Yoshi stepped back. Orochimaru showed Yoshi the hand seal again.
“You need to be a little bit more polite to your elders; even if they are power hungry, corrupt, and evil to the soul.” Yoshi looked at Orochimaru with a very odd face.
5
Orochimaru knew that Yoshi was thinking that Orochimaru was talking about himself. “I wasn’t talking about myself you know. There are people that are way worst than me. I am just one that sticks out like a sore thumb.” They continued with their training. It took Yoshi a very long time to understand when to use the technique. He was hopping that he might be able to use it one on of the worst criminals that there are. “Don’t even think about sacrificing yourself with this technique. It is only useful when you have to battle someone stronger than you and they are bound.” Orochimaru took a quick break.
6
As Orochimaru was sitting down and relaxing, Yoshi practiced this technique. He even fought some of his clones so that he could come up with some plans. Unfortunately, for Orochimaru, all his plans used Nara skills. This way, only Naras with his skill level could come up with ways to improve or disprove the technique. “You can rest for a second while I make sure that this technique is perfect. Tell me if you see an opining that you think that I don’t see.” Yoshi was saying this very sarcastically. He knew all the openings and closings by the second. He was just trying to be polite to his teacher.
7
Yoshi did some techniques to make a trap. All of his techniques passed; all but one. The Orochimaru yelled. “I saw that one. Look at the tree that is above you. It is two meters away from your shadow. If you had made the shadow creep around it, your opponent would not have seen it coming. Try some more.” Yoshi was amazed that he had missed something that was right behind him. He was hopping that he would impress Orochimaru. Yoshi still thought that maybe he could be another technique. He was going to use three of his favorite techniques to get the person stuck in his shadow.
8
He looked over to Orochimaru. “Look at this new combo.” Yoshi did his Shadow Shield. His opponent then came from the one-foot opening and attacked Yoshi.
Orochimaru was surprised that Yoshi’s trick had ended so fast. Within that same second, there was an explosion. The clone went flying out of the shield and into a dirt patch. “I see what you did. You made a clone take your place so that you could go underground.”
Yoshi nodded. The clone had not landed in a dirt patch; it was a Genjutsu of dirt. “I had that plan for the longest time. You are the first to actually see it.” Yoshi smiled.

Twin Snake Double Assassination 900 SP

Yoshi had finished his last lesson with Orochimaru and wanted to finish his next lesson soon also. He knew what it was about and knew the basics of how to do it. All he had to do now was learn how to do the hand seals; or so he thought. He had to master the original version then he can learn the second version. He had sat down for a second so that he could rest his body. It will take him a while to restore all the chakra that he had used in one second. He had done two hard techniques at once. He sat there waiting for his chakra to regroup. Orochimaru was wondering why he did not learn chakra absorption.
1
Then Orochimaru interrupted his small break. “You should learn of a way to absorb someone’s chakra without touching them. For example, you could make a technique that lets you absorbing your opponent’s chakra with your shadow. That will really help you when you are struggling. Also, only Naras will be able to learn that skill.” He stopped.
Yoshi stood up. “I am ready to learn the next skill. How long will it take me this time?”
Orochimaru thought aloud. “You did the last technique in record time for someone that is not part of the Uchiha clan with the third level of the Sharingan.” He thought some more.
2
Then he answered. “I think that it will take you about a day and a half. Your time starts when I begin the instruction.” Yoshi nodded. He waited for a response from Orochimaru.
“Well…let us begin the less already. I do not have all day to learn this you know.”
Orochimaru waited a few more seconds. Then he said. “Time begins now. The first thing that you need to know is the description. However, I have told you the majority of it. I will tell you one thing that I forgot to say. You can change your whole arm into as many snakes as could fit inside. Also you can make your tongue into a snake.” Yoshi nodded.
3
Orochimaru shook his head. “There is one bad thing about the snake instead of your tongue. You will not be able to talk for about a day after you do that. It is only good to do if you are bound and your mouth is the only thing that is free. If someone cuts the snake, then you will need about three days to re-grow a new one. If you get any less, then there is a chance that you will never be able to speak again. However, if you have an ability to make things speed up, then you will be able to cut the time to two days or even one and a half. Just remember to wait.” Orochimaru finished his long explanation.
4
Orochimaru laughed. “I have no clue why I am telling you this. I have not seen anyone get his or her tongue cut whenever it was a snake. You should actually have more chance of keeping the snake alive than having a regular tongue. Have I shown you the hand seals for this technique yet?” Yoshi shook his head indicating no. “Well, it is very similar to the last technique. There is one small difference in the first part and a big difference in the second part. Remember how the first one was fast then slow…” He paused a second to let Yoshi think. “Well, this is backwards. That is the small difference.”
5
He went on. “The big difference is that the hand seals are also backwards. The first animal becomes the last, and the third becomes third to last. That means that you have to do the opposite animal for your hand seals. Without me showing you, do the hand seal.”
Yoshi took a second to think. He figured it out. He did the hand seal with accuracy to the correct animal. “How was that?” He asked Orochimaru. “Did I do that right?”
Orochimaru hesitated but nodded. “I meant that you should do all of it together; including the timing.” Yoshi tried it again. This time, he was not very successful. He tried again.
6
Yoshi kept trying until he got close. When his timing and accuracy of the hand seals was almost correct, Orochimaru had an offer. “How about we have a little deal?” Yoshi nodded. “You can try the technique as many times as you want. However, you only have two full days. If you want, I will show you the technique. The downside to that is I will cut your time in half. The first showing is free.” Orochimaru showed Yoshi the hand seals required to do the technique. He showed him slow the first time then he did it up to speed. “Did you get that? Even if you didn’t, you will have to learn it yourself.”
7
Yoshi walked all around the area trying to do the technique. He made sure that he was back every hour just in case Orochimaru was going to add something new to the deal. He tried and tried but could not get it right. Then he knew that there was a trick behind the technique. The next hour, he went back to the spot that Orochimaru was. He was going to trick him into giving him a clue. “Hey Orochimaru, I think that I have figured out the technique.” Orochimaru’s face looked puzzled at how Yoshi said that. “I knew it. There is a trick behind the technique. I need a clue because no one will be able to pass this test.”
8
Yoshi continued. “You made a bet because you knew that you would win. That is not fair.” Yoshi complained a lot throughout the meeting with Orochimaru. Orochimaru then agreed that he would tell Yoshi one clue. He also said that it would take half of the time that he has left to nine hours. Yoshi thought very hard. He came up with ideas, but they were not good enough. Every idea that Yoshi had messed up at the very last part. He now started to think out of the box. He started to think more like Orochimaru. He thought that he might need to bite himself to do the technique. He sat there and thought.
9
Orochimaru came walking by. “Time is up. Do you think that you have the answer to this puzzle?” Yoshi nodded. He sat down in amazement. He should have found out the answer a while back. Orochimaru stood there waiting for an answer to the question.
“Give me a second.” Yoshi said. He did some hand seals, and then he bit himself.
Orochimaru looked for a second. Then he laughed. “You are so close. Too bad you missed it by one hand seal.” Yoshi sat there. He could feel the poison moving through him. He stood up and his mouth started to bleed. He did the Shadow Sewing technique.
10
His shadows wrapped the part of him that he had bit. In a few seconds, Yoshi was fine again. “I figured it out. I mixed both the techniques and made the snakes bite me. I let the poison go through my body and now it is all the way around my body.” He did the hand seals for Multiple Hidden Shadow Snake Hands. His whole arm turned into billions of snakes; or so it looked from where Orochimaru was standing. His other hand turned into one big snake. He then fused them together. The big one was on the inside while all the others were on the outside. Right before they hit Orochimaru, they bent away.
11
Yoshi smiled. “I told you that I had it. All you had to do was believe in my skill.”
Orochimaru nodded. “You did well. However, that was not the path that you were supposed to take. You were supposed to either spray some in the air and inhale it or swallow some of the venom. All of those paths would have worked. You decided to take the path that is most effective and the most painful. The upside to this is that you will be able to control this power to its limit. If you have any problems with this technique, then do what you just did. It will increase the power of the technique by double.”

Multiple Hidden Shadow Snake Hands (1200)

Yoshi had just finished his lesson with Second Hokage. He is now going to walk around for about an hour as he waits for Second to prepare for the next technique. As Yoshi was walking around, he saw Third Hokage. Third Hokage is known as the god of shinobi; people still call him by that name. Yoshi knew that he needed some lesson from him. However, Yoshi wanted to learn from Second more than Third. Yoshi liked water more than earth. He still is going to learn from Third, but it might take a while to get to him. Yoshi started to walk back to learn more lessons from Second Hokage.
1
As Yoshi was walking back, he saw Second looking for him. “I was just about to come back for more lessons. Where are you going to teach me the next technique?” Yoshi looked puzzled. Second did not even glance towards Yoshi. Yoshi started to follow him.
After a small walk, Second said. “This is the place where I will teach you the next lesson. This area here has no water what so ever. You will now learn a technique that will let you make water anywhere; even if there is no water remotely close to the area. This technique will be useful for you if you need to do a technique that needs water to be in the area.”
2
Yoshi nodded as Second continued his lesson. “Remember the last technique that I taught you?” Yoshi nodded. “This technique can be used with that one to make a huge waterfall. In addition, you can use this technique when you need to drink some water. The water that comes out of the ground is fresh, but after it touches the ground again, it will become contaminated. That is the only two reasons that I have ever used this technique. You might need it for something else so keep it in mind.” Yoshi had something to say.
Yoshi added. “I like this technique. Are there any others like it for earth or fire?”
3
Second shook his head. “You will not need techniques like this for earth or fire. Fire comes from your chest while earth is everywhere. This technique is one of the few that let you make water for a technique. I have another technique that lets me make a wall out of water. The cool thing is that you do not need water to be in the area. Now, let us go back to this technique. First do Earth Style Rampart.” Yoshi did the technique. “Now let me show you what the hand seals for this technique look like.” Second showed Yoshi the hand seals for the technique. “Now that you know that, you will need one more thing.”
4
Yoshi waited for Second to finish his sentence. “The one thing that you will need is placement. You can make the technique come out of the ground from where ever you are. The only thing that you will need is to be able to see where you will be making the water come from. If some one blindfolds you or you cannot see, then you can measure how far the person is with your thought. Then you can make the water come from there. You force your chakra to go from your eyes to the place where you want the water to come from. Then you can set the amount of water that comes by your mind.”
5
Yoshi did not understand that last part. Just for Yoshi’s sake, he explained what he meant. “You can make a lot of water come from there at one time or little by little. Either you put a lot of chakra to the ground, to make more water, or little amounts of chakra, for small amounts of water. Do you understand that?” Yoshi nodded. “Do you want to say something?” Yoshi shook his head. “Ok then. Let us continue to the next part. Now that you know how to make the water, where to place the water, and the seals required for the technique, you would learn the last part of the technique. The last part is your aim.”
6
Yoshi thought that this would be easy. All you have to do is aim your chakra at an angle. He is in for a big surprise. “The aim that you need is one of the most important parts of this technique. If you do this part wrong, then you will make water go underground instead of above ground.” Yoshi was shocked at how wrong his guess of the importance was. “The good thing about your aim is you think where you want the water to go. Just look at the ground, and aim in your head. That way, you can make sure that your attack or defense will kit what you are aiming for. You can also measure the height.”
7
Yoshi interrupted. “Isn’t measuring the power and height the same thing?” Yoshi asked.
Second shook his head. “The height depends on how far on the ground it is while power depends on how much water there is. Now do the technique to create a waterfall.”
Second stood there and watched. Yoshi wanted to make this technique work very well. He did the hand seals and said. “Waterfall Basin.” He then looked from a distance to about a foot away. A stream came right out of the ground. It flowed right off the cliff.
Second said. “I forgot to do one thing.” He went down and made a path for the water.

Waterfall Basin 800 SP

When Yoshi looked around, he saw Sasuke’s dad on the ground. Yoshi had gotten out of the Genjutsu because he had knocked out the person that put him in the Genjutsu.
Second then started to walk back towards the waterfall that Yoshi had created. Second started to speak as they were walking. “Do you have any goals for yourself?”
Yoshi thought. After a couple seconds, Yoshi answered his questions. “Now that I look at it, I have no goals for myself. The closest thing to goals that I have is learn all the techniques that I can from the Kages that have died or are still living.”
1
Yoshi continued. “I used to like water techniques so much, but not anymore. Now I like them all the same, except for earth. That is last if I had a list. It is too slow when I use it in attacks. Wind, fire, lightening, and water are very fast. The only reason that I learned tree techniques is because they are a rare technique to have. Not that many people know any of those techniques. Can you start to teach me the technique yet?” Yoshi asked.
Second looked around. “We are not close enough to the waterfall for you to practice. If we run, we will get there very soon.” They started to run towards the huge waterfall.
2
After a couple minutes, they reached the waterfall that Yoshi had recently built. Second then started to explain the technique to Yoshi. “I use this technique to block attacks that are pointing at one place. If it is attacking person is aiming at a large area, then this technique will only block the area that you area at. You can also use this as an attack, but it is more likely to waste your chakra without harming your opponent. Well, let me tell you what the technique does and you can choose on what to use it on. Once you do the technique, take a deep breath. When you expel, water will come from your mouth.”
3
Yoshi thought that the technique was very cool. There is no way of using this technique for an attack. Then Yoshi said. “This technique is only good for either a diversion or a defense. If I was to try to use it for another reason, it might cost me my life. You should tell that to all of your students. Oh, I just got another use for this technique. If you are fighting with a team member and the area is about to fall apart, then you can use the technique to push them out of the way without harming them. How about that?”
Second thought. “I already tried that. It does not seem to push really far. Think more.”
4
Yoshi felt like he could not do anything right. He then thought of more uses for this technique. “There has to be more uses for this technique. How about using it to blast myself into the air?” He paused. “I don’t think that it has enough power to do that. Oh!!! I got it. I can use the technique to fill the area with water. However, it depends on how much water I can spit out at one time.” Yoshi was happy that he thought of that.
Yoshi then asked Second if that would work. Second answered. “You can just use Waterfall Basin for things like that. If you can harness the power…” He paused.
5
Second wanted to make sure that he said something that would actually work. He thought. “That might work but how much power does this technique give at its fullest?” He did not want to use it in front of Yoshi yet. He decided to tell him later.” Then Second told Yoshi with a conclusion to the question. “I do not know how powerful the technique can go. I never checked to see the strongest that it could get to. How about we check how strong the technique can be after I teach you how to do the technique?”
Yoshi nodded. “That sounds fine. Now that we are here, can we start the lesson?”
6

Second got mad at this question. “How many times do I need to tell you this? Knowledge is as good as the technique. That is why I always ask you for ways of doing the technique. Now that we have that out of the way, let me teach you the hand seals. This technique has one of the easiest seals that I have ever seen. The only thing is that you have to control your chakra to the best of your ability. This is what the hand seals look like.” He showed Yoshi the hand seals. They were the slowest hand seals that Yoshi had ever seen. Second noticed that Yoshi was amazed at the length of the seals.
7
Then Second said. “There is a reason why this technique goes very slow. Every part of it has one small part of your chakra that you need to control. The first part is the chakra gathering in your lungs. The second part is turning the chakra into water. The third part is growing your lung muscles to their peak. The last part is using your new, strong lung muscles to blow out the water that has been gathering in your lungs. Now that you know what to do, I will perform the technique. Do not do this technique by yourself until you master it. Now, watch me do it.” He did a series of hand seals followed by him inhaling.
8
A second later, he was breathing out water like some kind of water dragon. Yoshi was amazed. Then Second said. “I did everything slower than what it is supposed to be. Now it is your turn. I will do a series of hand seals that I have made up. This new technique will turn all water into air. If you are not able to expel the water from your lungs, then I will use this new technique to save your dead life.” They both laughed at the comment.
Yoshi did the series of hand seals just like Second. Then he inhaled a large amount of air. When he breathed out, a lot of water came out. “I did it!” He was very excited.
9
He then added. “Now I will try to do the technique faster.” He tried it again. This time he rushed the technique. The water filled his lungs too fast. Yoshi fell down. Second came over to help. The instant that Second touched Yoshi, the water came shooting out. It hit Second and he flew back a couple hundred feet. “I am fine Second. Thank you for coming here so fast. I think that I have figured out how to make the technique at full blast.” Second got up and walked to Yoshi. “The speed of your chakra flow is also the measure of the technique. The faster you do the technique, the more power there is.”

Water Encampment Wall 1000 SP

Second saw Yoshi great accomplishment. He was amazed at how fast Yoshi had mastered that technique. He now knew how good Yoshi was at learning techniques. He then said. “You have passed the last test that I have set for you. You know will learn the last technique that I can offer you. After this lesson, you will have to fight me with all the techniques that you have learned from me. Do you remember what I told you?” He asked.
Yoshi nodded. “I remember. What is the next technique called and what does it do?”
Second was amazed that Yoshi did not ask for the seals. He asked for a description.
1
Second really saw a dramatic improvement in Yoshi’s behavior. He also saw a dramatic improvement in his ability to analyze and learn a technique. Second wanted to make sure that Yoshi understood this technique to the best of his ability. Because of this, a new toughness came upon Second. “This new technique is used to attack your opponent without a warning. I say without a warning because you can direct the water. If you miss, your opponent will think that you will not be able to turn it back. The thing is, this technique moves very fast.” He looked to make sure Yoshi was paying attention.
2
Then he continued with his lesson. “Once you are done with the seals, the opponent will need to do something about it or the opponent will get hit. A direct hit with this technique might knock a person out for about an hour. This depends on their body layout. If they are just Taijutsu people, then they will not have a problem with getting up. If they are Genjutsu people, do not go near them; it might be a fake. If you hit a Ninjutsu user, you will knock them out. By the way, if you do not know if a Genjutsu person is knocked out or not, just use Dispel or Cancel and go to them.” Second knew a lot about this technique.
3
Then Yoshi asked puzzled. “Why is it that you know so much about this technique?”
Yoshi was right. Second seemed to say a lot more about this technique than all the others. Second answered. “This is one of my favorite techniques. Some of my other favorites are too strong for anyone to handle. The only person that I think is capable of handling it is my brother, but he is not a fan of using water by itself. As I was saying, this is one of the strongest techniques that I know and you can handle. That is why I am going to be hard on you. From now on, do not cut me off. If you do, you will have a battle with me.”
4
Yoshi was scared. He did not want to fight the Second Hokage of his village. He wanted to learn the new technique that he is talking about. Yoshi nodded at his comment.
Second said. “The next thing that you will be learning is a way of calming down the attack. If you just want to blast them backwards, then do not hold for as long. The first thing that you need to learn is the hand seals. This technique has a short series of seals compared to all the others. This is all that you have to do.” He showed him. The first seal looked like Second was about to pray. The second was his palms facing forward.
5
Yoshi thought that Second was messing with him. Yoshi did not dare to interrupt even if this was a joke. He just stood there listening. Second went on with his lesson. “I use the first part to make water come out of nowhere. I use the second part to direct the water wherever I want it to go. Do you want me to show you what it looks like?” Yoshi nodded. Second did the needed hand seals for the technique. The first part made water materialize out of nowhere. Then he directed the water at Yoshi. Yoshi thought that this was an attack to see if he was paying attention. Yoshi did not know what to do.
6
He did the needed hand seals for the technique Water Encampment Wall. Blasts of water hit each other and stopped. Second was amazed that Yoshi could pull off that technique so fast. Second had problems with others. They needed to do that technique ten times before they could pull it off as fast as Yoshi had. Yoshi had only done the technique twice. The first was in the lesson and the second was when he used it to protect himself from an attack form the Second. Anyways, Second was not aiming for Yoshi at this time. He was trying to put the extra water into the base of the waterfall.
7
Second said. “Why did you do that? I was just sending the water to the waterfall.”
Yoshi looked at Second. Second really was going to dump the water into the waterfall. “I am sorry. I thought that you were aiming for me. I thought that I might have looked like I was not paying attention. When the water started to come, I did a technique as a reflex.”
Second nodded. “I hope that you have reflexes that fast when I fight you. Now that you know what everything looks like, do the technique.” Second took a couple steps back.
Yoshi did the first part of the hand seals. Water started to form out of nowhere.
8
Yoshi did the second part of the technique. You controlled the water without any problems. He even made it flip around and things like that. After he was done, he sent all the water to the waterfall. The instant the water was in the waterfall, Yoshi heard a water clone moving around in the water. He turned and saw a huge dragon moving towards him. Yoshi did not have anything ready this time. He dodged the dragon and ran towards the water. He ran up the water from the waterfall. The dragon was chasing Yoshi up the waterfall. The dragon was moving faster than Yoshi. Yoshi did a back flip.
9
As he was in the air, he did Waterfall Basin. The water came from right behind the clone. Yoshi blasted it straight into the water. The dragon turned back into normal water. Yoshi then did the technique that he had just learned. He did the first seal. The water gathered right in front of his hands. He did the second part and yelled. “Water Collision Destruction.” The water went straight into the clone. However, the clone was still alive. Yoshi wanted to use some originality. He used a combo of techniques to make it work. He did Journey into Black Darkness. Darkness covered the clone. The clone stood up.
10
Yoshi then did the needed hand seals for the technique called Water Encampment Wall. “This is my version of Water Encampment Wall.” Water started to fill in his lungs. He breathed in and held it. The clone did Dispel to get rid of the Genjutsu. The clone looked at Yoshi. It thought that Yoshi was just holding his breath. Right when the clone was close, Yoshi breathed out. The waster dragged the clone straight into the cliff.
The clone then exploded back into water. Second said. “Good job. Now I know that I did not teach my lessons to a brick wall. Someone new and experienced has them.” Second smiled.

Water Collision Destruction 1100 SP

Then third said. “You did very well with your last test. Your next test will be after you learn this technique. I call it Shuriken Shadow Clone. It does the same thing as the Shadow Clone, but the only difference is that you make clones of the shuriken.”
Yoshi nodded. “I want to take a small break. I will be back in a few minutes.”
Third nodded. He saw Yoshi running away. He sat down to make the time go by. Within a few seconds, Yoshi was back. “That did not take very long. Why is that?”
Yoshi answered. “I used Flying Thunder God. I got here faster than I thought.”
1
Third nodded. He did not really care that much. “Let me begin your next lesson. I already told you what it does so I do not need to do that part again. The next thing that you will need to know is the chakra control for this technique. You will insert some chakra into your weapon and do some seals. These seals are made for weapons that are light. If they are too heavy, then you will not be able to perform the technique. By inserting your chakra into your weapon, you will be able to control the techniques that it does by your hands. If you have other weapon techniques, they use the same principle.”
2
Yoshi nodded. He seemed to understand every word that Third said. This has never happened to him before. Maybe it was because he has never found a teacher as good as him. The techniques might not be very good, but the lessons that were taught are very good. Third went on. “Since you understand that part, I will go on to show you the hand seals. This is what they look like.” Third did some hand seals to show Yoshi what they looked like. Yoshi nodded to indicate that he understood what Third was doing. Third did the seals one more time to make sure that Yoshi knew them. Yoshi nodded again.
3
Yoshi now understood why Third was the teacher of the Legendary Sannin. The Sannin were the three best ninjas of the time. They matched each other with the techniques that they used, and only one has died. The one that died was killed by his teacher. The Sannin were almost as good was all the other Kages of every village. If they were to battle, they could come out victorious depending on which they battled. This technique is an Academy basic technique compared to the techniques that they know. Back to the technique at hand. “You know the uses of this technique.” Yoshi nodded.
4
Third continued. “This technique can be used so that you do not waste all of your weapons. All you have to do is throw your weapon at your enemy. Once your weapon is in the air, follow it and do the seals. This way, you can make more of the weapons. If you do the technique when it is too far, your weapon will not be able to multiply as much as before. That is why you should follow the shuriken to make sure that it can multiply. If you do not or cannot follow the shuriken, then do the seals followed by throwing the shurikens. This will multiply the weapons the instant they leave your hand.”
5
Yoshi had some questions to ask. “I have a bunch of things that I do not understand. How far will the weapons go before they explode into smoke? How far do I have to be for this technique not to work? This is my last question. Can I control where the clones pop up or are it just random?” Yoshi asked these questions waiting for a good response.
Third replied. “Those are all easy questions. The weapons will still be going until they cannot move anymore. There is not limit for the technique. If you do this technique, you are bound to make at least four copies of the weapon. You can also just make one copy.”

Third had one more question to answer. “If you are in a hurry, then do not bother to control where they end up, but if it is just a question of if you can, it is possible. You can control it to pop up anywhere by it. The only limit to this is that you can only make the second copy the same distance, or shorter, of where you are compared to the weapon. As I said, it is a choice that you can make. If you decide to do the seals before you throw the weapon, then you can multiply four by the distance between the weapon and your shoulder. This will tell you the exact distance that you will be able to accomplish.”

Yoshi understood the technique. All he had to do now was the technique. Yoshi did the needed hand seas. Followed by throwing the shuriken. He had put so much chakra into the shuriken that it made enough copies to cover the body of a 13 year old. They were all spread out evenly. “Do I pass this test of skill?” Yoshi smiled as he asked that.
Third replied. “Yes. Meet me here for the next test you will be facing.”

Yoshi went around the area looking for a way to improve his skills with the new clone that he had just learned. He went around and found a way of improving it. He did not have enough time to learn the lesson, but he inscribed it into his memory so that he could do it later. He was going to be late for his meeting with Third Hokage. He used Flying Thunder God to get there in one second. When he got there, Third was standing there waiting for Yoshi. Then Yoshi asked. “Am I here on time or am I late for the lesson?”
Third answered. “You are here exactly on time. Let us begin the lesson.”

Third went over to an area without any earth. Yoshi was right behind him. They went up to the area where Yoshi had created the waterfall. As they got closer, Yoshi realized where they were going. Then Third said. “This is the place where you learned how to do Earth Style Rampart and Waterfall Basin. Here is where you will learn Earth Flow River. Earth Flow River is a techniques used to wipe out your opponent without using water. Instead, you will use earth to move fast enough to become mud. This mud is strong enough to move anyone and anything. The only person that will not move is the user.”

Yoshi nodded. This sounded like a technique that went wrong. However, he described it with great accuracy. Yoshi thought that this was like the Mud Clone until Third said that it moves fast enough to become mud. This meant that he moved the earth to create mud. He did not make earth and water mix to make mud. Then Yoshi asked. “Does it suck?”
Third did not understand what Yoshi was asking. Third said. “Rephrase that question.”
Yoshi nodded. “Does the mud pull the opponent down into the mud?” Yoshi asked.
Third said. “Yes. As it moves them down stream, it pulls them down into the mud.”

Yoshi nodded. “That makes sense. That means that this is like a real river made of mud.”
Third said. “This technique is used mainly for uses when you or your team member is trapped. You will do the hand seals and think of a place for the mud to flow. It will instantly move your opponent down stream. You can also control which way the stream will flow. This way, you can move them away from you. When the technique is done, your opponent will be stuck in the ground. This gives you about a second to do some good technique to attack your opponent. Make sure that you do not use earth techniques.”

Yoshi did not understand what Third meant with his last comment. Third noticed that he said the last part wrong. “Let me rephrase that. Do not use earth techniques once the mud turns back into earth. This might cause it to break up and let your opponent free. I will teach you a way of making sure that this never happens. Now that you know what the technique does, I will teach you the hand seals for this technique. Any questions?”
Yoshi nodded. “Is there a way of making the earth break open to lure my opponent? I mean like letting him or her go so that I can use a better technique on them.”
5
Third answered. “Yes there is. When you use another earth technique, aim at the area where the river started. The mudflow will start for a short time. This is the only time that they have to get out of the earth. When they try to get out, you can use Earth Flow River on them again. The earth will swallow them up to their necks. This will give you a longer time to attack. Anyway, this is what the hand seals look like. I will do it once in slow motion, and then I will bring it up to speed. It is not a long series so do not worry about forgetting it.” Third did the hand seals for the technique in slow motion.
6
Yoshi nodded to indicate that he understood the seals. “Now, I will show you the technique up to speed.” Third did the hand seals up to speed for Yoshi. Yoshi nodded.
Yoshi also noticed that the series where short and fast. This means that he could use the technique on an attacker that is holding someone hostage without have the attacker kill the hostage. Then Yoshi asked. “Can I control the speed of the earth river?”
Third nodded. “Yes you can. This will use very small amounts of chakra. Making the river does not use a lot of chakra. Making the speed of the river grow, might.”
7
Yoshi nodded. That meant that he could only increase the speed to maximum in times of need. Third started his long explanation again. “To make the river flow, you will need to move your chakra from your body to your feet. By doing that, your body will make the chakra have the ability to move at speeds that are not normal for any human. This speed is not even achievable by Rock Lee with his Eight Gates open. If only I could make an attack that could make chakra go fast enough to attack an opponent without warning.”
Yoshi asked. “Will this technique be fast enough with little amounts of chakra?”
8
Third nodded. “This technique goes very fast to begin with. If you increase the speed, you will make it go too fast for any human to come out of it. Now, it is your turn to do the technique. I showed you and told you how it is done. Do it to your ability.”
Yoshi nodded. He did the hand seals in a fast manner. He pushed some chakra to his feet. The river began to flow immediately under him. He had put a small amount of chakra into the river and it was flowing faster than he thought. Then Third said. “The distance does bother the power. The farther you are the more power to do the same affect.”
