While Issole waited for his next training he decided to throw a kunai or two at some nearby trees. He set up some targets and prepared some kunai. Some of the targets he had set up were really simple to hit and were no challenge at all, but he had set up some difficult ones because otherwise the whole practice will be for nothing. He had one target hidden behind a dummy, he had put it there so he would try to hit it without hitting the dummy. He threw a kunai in the air and then another one to hit the first one, the first kunai flipped and fell directly on the dummy's head. Issole frowned "Oh man, this sucks..." He took out two more kunai and decided to try again...
((Shuriken/ Kunai Target Practice 1/2))
...He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, trying to imagine the trajectory of the kunai he was about to throw. After a few seconds he reopened his eyes and threw the first kunai, a second after that he threw the second kunai as well and hit the first making it flip again, only this time the kunai fell right in the center of the target. At that moment Renzuki came out from behind a tree clapping his hands "Very nicely done Issole, but if you sit here all day you'll miss your new training." Issole looked at Renzuki "What kind of training is it sensei?" the boy asked. Renzuki smiled "Tree climbing..." "Tree climbing? That's stupid I already know how to climb trees." Issole said annoyed. Renzuki snickered a little and said "You misunderstand me Issole, I'm not gonna teach you how to climb trees like everyone else, I'm gonna teach you how to climb them without using your hands... Like this..." He then climbed one to the top of one of the tallest trees and set on a branch...
((Shuriken/ Kunai Target Practice 2/2)) ..."There, you see. Now you try it, first build up some chakra in your feet and then begin releasing it at a steady rate, and when you reach me We'll move on to the next stage of this training." Renzuki then rested his back on the tree and closed his eyes "You can begin now..." Issole nodded and build some chakra in his feet, he then ran toward the tree and then upwards on the tree, after a few steps however he felt that he will fall off since his chakra flow in his feat wasn't exactly steady, so he just bounced off the tree and with a back flip he landed softly on the ground, he then looked at the tree and build up some chakra in his feet again for another try...
((Tree climbing 1/6))
...Like before, he ran toward the tree and then upwards on it but again his chakra flow was far from what he needed for this to work so he just end up falling off again, and again like before he landed softly on the ground after a graceful back flip. Determined to get it right this time he build up more chakra in his feet and ran toward the tree again, but as soon as his foot touched the tree the surface lair of the tree, the intense chakra in his foot caused the tree to crack. Renzuki looked down and said "That's way too much chakra Issole, relax a bit and use less chakra, after all this is tree climbing not tree braking, do it again and this time use a bit less chakra, oh and one more thing, try to climb the tree without running and let's see how high you get then, that way you should be able to get this faster, now try again like I told you."...
((Tree climbing 2/6))
...He took a few steps back from the tree and build up some chakra in his feet again, he then slowly approached the tree and begun climbing. It was slow but it was working, he was taking step after step and coming closer and closer to the top. Halfway to the top Issole got a bit too excited and forgot all about keeping a steady flow of chakra in his feet, of course that caused him to fall of from the tree. He tried to land softly on his feet again but since he didn't have too much time to react he landed rather roughly, still he wasn't hurt so he decided to try again, only he would be more careful this time around...
((Tree climbing 3/6))
He took a few steps backwards again and after building up chakra in his feet again he begun climbing the tree again. He climbed steadily toward the top. He took step after step until he was by Renzuki's side on the tree branch. Issole smiled and said happily "I did it Renzuki-sensei, I did it!" Renzuki however quickly rained on Issole's parade and said "Not quite Issole, for you see getting to the top is only half the battle, now you need to get back to the bottom the same way you got up here, because you see although you might be able to jump off this tree and land on the ground without hurting yourself, sometime on a mission you might end up on a really high spot from which you can't jump and survive, and at that time you''need to get down quickly and safely..." Issole looked at Renzuki surprised and thought 'How hard can going down be, I mean I already got to the top, going down should be a piece of cake'...
((Tree climbing 4/6))
He prepared to go down the tree, but as soon as he turned around and attempted to take the first step the weight of his entire body along with the force of gravity pulling him down and the fact that he was already going down made his feet slip and he fell. He flipped gracefully a few times and landed on the ground softly, now he needed to get back up and try going down again. He build up some chakra in his feet again and begun climbing again. This time it was a lot easier since he already knew what he was doing, he got to the top quickly and now followed the part he had failed at before, going down thw same way he got up...
((Tree climbing 5/6))
... Since this time he knew what he was in for, he was prepared to be pulled down when he tried going down, so he turned around and took the first step, again the force of gravity combined with his weight and the fact that he was going dow already almost made him slip again bu this time he managed to stay on the side of the tree. After the first few steps it became easy and he came down from the tree quickly. He then climbed up one more time and then came back down a few more times so he would get it better and after that he heard Renzuki say "Beautifully done Issole, now we can move one to the next stage of this training." He jumped down from the tree and added while walking toward the nearby river "Follow me..."...
((Tree climbing 6/6))

Kekkaishi was begining to calm down a bit. the ecstasy of battle still in his blood." i have to admit i never taught you would be that good. i guess its about time i taught you a jutsu.what do you say?"Kekkaishi finally stopped breathing hard. "ready sensie."Seya smiled at his pupil."this tecnique is used to create deciet and when used corectly can be of the most help"he made the handsings and said" henge no jutsu" a puff of smoke apeared and he know looked like a hawk. he transformed back into a human "you try" ((henge no jutsu: 1/3))
Seya showed him the hand sings once slowly. kekkaishi breathed in deeply he made the handsings and repeated them until he could do them at a decent speed.hmm i am guessing this technique can be quite useful, if i where to be able to confuse my enemy. i need something to look like but what?he concetrated letting his chackra mold with the hand sings. a poof of smoke apeared and when it was gone his transformation was not quite. it looked like he was trying to copy the third hokage but he was not succesfull. he sighed i guess that was pretty obnoxius of me. oh whell second try ((henge no jutsu:2/3))
Kekkaishi concetrated on the image in his head. he charged chackra and did the hand sings. "henge no jutsu" sudenly a puff of smoke apeared. i liek this kid the way he does things is quick. i wonder what he is gong to transform into? the smoke clear revealing a creature of about 6'13" it looked a man had fused with a horse. Kekkaishi looked at his sensie before he transformed back into his regular self.Seya laghed." i am surprised you where abel to keep that form long enough. you are not one with a lot of chakra yet young one. but you pass" ((henge no jutsu: 3/3))

"Kikyo. Guess what time it is?" "Time to eat, 'cause I'm starved." "No. It's time for water walking!" "... Your enthusiasm scares me. Now, what is the water walking and where are we headed to? We just passed a bunch of good places to eat, so can we-" "No eating until we finish this." They arrived to the hotsprings and Ebisu walked right onto the water. "... Woah."(( Water walking: 1/6)) He smirked. "If you want to be able to do this, then you need to learn chakara control." She groaned. "Aww man, I don't like the sound of this." "Just give it a try." She too a deep breath and concentrated the chakara into her feet. She stepped into the water and fell through. "EYYYYYYYYYYYYOW!!!!!!!!!!" "Heheh, this is going to be a very long session."(( Water walking: 2/6)) She climbed out of the water, completely soaked and her pale skin bright red from the heat. "You b*****d. You set me up." "Now now, don't blame me because you're a miserable failure. You have to use just the right amount for the water. It isn't the same as the tree climbing." "Now you tell me." She focused her chakara to what she thought was right and stepped onto the water again. She managed to on the surface for a second before she fell hrough. "Wow, you really do suck at this." He chuckled at her as she pulled herself out again. (( Water walking: 3/6)) "THAT DOES IT!!! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU DO TO DO THIS STUPID EXCERSIZE?" "Heheh, there's a secret to doing this." "Tell me!" "Hmm, I'm not sure I should." "Do it or I'll hit you in the a** with another kunai, and this time it'll have a bomb attached." "Fine. The secret is that you have to disperse the chakara in different ammount in different parts of your feet to match the surface of the water."(( Water walkng: 4/6)) "And you couldn't have told me this sooner?" She narrowed her eyes at Ebisu. He laughed. "I thought you could at least try to figure it out for yourself." She gritted her teeth. 'I'll get him back for that.' She went to walk on the water and fell through again. Ebisu laughed. "Guess some people never learn- WHAT?!?" He suddenly felt himself be pulled down. Kikyo used the water walking technique to help her get on top of the water and laughed at him. "Serves you right Perv!"(( Water walking: 5/6)) Ebisu climbed out of the water. He saw her standing on top of the water. "Not bad for some one who couldn't get it at all only a few minutes ago?" "Thanks. Now can we get some food." "Not until you prove you've really learned this." She rolled her eyes and walked around. A few times water would come over her foot, but she'd quickly adjust until she was completely walking on top of the water. "Well?" "Very good. I promise to feed you after the next lesson." She screamed in fustration. ((Water walking: Complete!))

kekkaishi woke up to find himself near a body of water. he turned round and saw his sensie standing in the middle of the pool."oh Kekkaishi you finaly awaken hwo are your musscles doing?"Kekkaishi groaned. "horrible sensie. cani take a nap?""nonsense. this is a perfect night the stars are out the moon is out. you coudlnt ask for a beterr night to drink some nice hot tea."Kekkaishi looked up at teh sky. it really was beutifull the wind was playing around and he knew he couldnt ask for a better night to drink tea."okay sensie throw me the tea" "your leson for now is to come get it yourself. come on walk on water." ((water walking:1/6))
Kekaishi looked at his teacher with disbelief in his eyes.what the hell is this guy thinking? my body is to sore to be able to do that. wouldnt it be better to do it latter on? the wind disrupted his tought on second taught i should try it, the wind is just so calm today. the water looking so calm there cant be anything wrong at this moment this is peace, minus well try it.Kekkaishi stood up his musscles hurting him with evrey move he made.he finally made it to the bed of the lake. and he looked at it for a while. suddenly the words of his mother rang in his ear.he repeated them to himself. ((water walking:2/6))
" becouse the water looks calm it does not mean theres no crocodiles in it" Seya was surprised he hadn't heard that phrase used since times he taught lost.he sighed. this kid had a great deal of potential.Kekkaishi breathed in deeply feeling all his tired muscles complain knowing he was about to fall. he put his leg on the water he did not fall. he felt victorus then he fell down. the water was cold numbing some of his muscles. then he saw what lay there. he quickly got out."there are sharks there?"he breathed in feeling his heart beat faster ((water walking:3/6))
" you are strange of course. those are fake. i was trying to make doll sharks. they move as if for real. but are controled by my chakra strings."Kekkaishi stood up. his teacher favored puppet.s so did this mean that he was from sand? he sighed and put on leg on the water. he felt tired his leg was tired then he noticed soemthing. the chackra he needed to stay on the water kept changing.he smiled."that is so simple why did i not grasp it before? this is diffrent from a tree water is always moving theres always dangers underneath it becouse it is never trully still"Kekkaishi had no wayof knowign wheter he was right or wrong but it made sense to him. ((water walking:4/6))
Kekkaichi smiled as he applaid chkra to his feet and began to walk on the water.instead of going in a straight foward manner he figured that by using only one of his legs he should be able to diagnose how much he would need. but i wonder will he do good underpresure? theres only one way to knowKekaichi was enjoying the feeling of walking on water. if i can do this then maybe like mom i will be able to walk on air?Kekkaishi suddenly jumped into teh air avoiding one of the shark dolls. Seya smiled as Kekkaishi seemed to be dancing avoiding the sharks by jumping side steping and sometimes dunking himself into the water ((water walking:5/6))
After ten minutes of Kekaishi dodging the dolls Seya was sastified with the results, he stopped his dolls letting go back to there resting place."come here boy you look like you need this" he said with a tea cettle in his hand.kekkaishi joined him and they booth had tea in the middle of the lake.theres still somethings i have to teach you. but before i teach them to you we will train your body a little more. for now you are allowed to rest." kekkaishi smiled and bowed. they booth left the water and Kekkaishi seemed to fall into meditiaton instead of sleep.

Akai looks into the bag and notices weights, used for making your movements slower. He frowns and straps them on, figuring that was the reason to them. "Now what...?!" He calls out as he looks around. His teacher throws a kunai from where he stood in a tree. Akai quickly reacting and forming the hand signs for the Substitution Jutsu, as the kunai hits him, causing his form to puff into smoke, and become the exact same log as before. Akai's teacher chuckles, dropping from the tree. "Reveal yourself, and then you have to catch me... Make sure those weights are on tight.." His teacher calls out, before he turns and begins running swiftly. [Weight Running - 1/3]
Akai emerges from behind the tree he had hidden behind. Racing after his teacher. What a stupid thing, for training.. 'catch me' jeeze... He thinks as he races after, already hating the added weight to his body from these weights. "Gah!" He excaims as he almost trips from the weight. He continues onwards. Chasing after his fleeting teacher's form. Akai was slowly getting used to the weights, as tired as he was. He was gradually catching up to his teacher, though being tired, it made it hard for him to keep up a good pace, without staggering every once and a while. [Weight Running - 2/3]
Akai's teacher glances back, seeing that Akai was catching up, he used his chakra to run up and into the branches of the trees. Running along the branches and keeping the same swift pace. Akai raises an eyebrow, using his own chakra to run up the same tree, then continues on as well. Keeping his chakra active to prevent a dangerous slip, due to having this amount of weight. on his back, legs, ankles and chest. He crouches on a branch, taking a great leap forward and narrowly missing crashing into his teacher. Because his teacher had just looked back. Instead, he drags his teacher from the branch, with a swift grab of their arm. "Ha..!" He yells, before landing cleanly on his back, with a grunt. His teacher landing in a roll, and then standing to look down at his student. [Weight Running - Complete]

Kekkaishi breathed in deeply."you telling me you cant lift this much?"Kekkaishi screamed out as he pushed the metal bar with the heavy side disks on it. this was the first time he had ever seen such a machine normaly he would just pick random rocks and use that as training for his body but his sensie ensisted he used this method. every single time he succeded in putting on up Seya would add another disk making it even more heavy.he brought it back down and put t back up agian with dificulty. what the hell is this torture device? ((weight lifting:1/3))
Seya was enjoying the look on his pupils eyes. ti was a look of almost utter desparation. if only he knew how much those weights where. he was havign a slightly better time now that his body was warmed up, but he was still horribel at using this machine.suddenly kekkaishi was lifting the weights much essier then and faster.i think he has got it. Seya smiled as he added yet another weight only for it to not have any effect. he raised an eyebrow and looked carefully at Kekkashi then he saw Kekkaishi's main flaw ((weight lifting:2/3))
Kekkaishi smiled as he taught he had it. if he could use chakra to walk over water and on vertical objects. if he added a little bit of chakra to his hands he could increase the amount his muscles can take. there by making the exercise even esier. if i can do this i can probably also increase my speed by adding chakra to my legs."thats enough for now. come on i think you still need to rest a little bit."

Kikyo's stomach growled. "Sensei. I'm hungery." "Quit complaining. Forget all distractions and focus on the leaf on your forehead." "Oh my gosh this is gay. Can we just go eat already." "Hush. You have no consentration, therefore we're going to work on that."(( Leaf Concentration: 1/5)) "Sensei, I'm so hungery. I can't concentrate on this." "Do it or you can give up on being a ninja." She sighed. "Fine." She closed her eyes and tried to concentrate on the leaf. "Well?" "Well? What?"(( Leaf Concentration: 2/5)) Ebisu twitched in annoyance. "You're supposed to be focussing your chakara on the leaf." "I am? You never told me that." "Why else would you have that leaf on your forehead?" "I just thought it was just some freaky thing that your village does."(( Leaf Concentration: 3/5)) Ebisu growled in annoyance. "Focus your chakara on the leaf already. It'll help with your concentration which is essentail for all ninja. It's a secret passed down in the Hidden Leaf." "Oh, so that explains the leaves on your forehead protectors. Alright." (( Leaf Concentration: 4/5)) Kikyo closed her eyes. She thought about where the leaf was and focused her chakara in that one spot. Or, at least, she tried her best. She spent about 10 minutes just concentrating on the leaf before attempting to have her chakara gather in a spot in her forehead. So much chakara gathered in that spot that the spot started to glow faint blue. 'Well now. I wasn't expecting her to get this so fast... Or have so much chakara. I'll have to keep an eye on her.'(( Leaf Concentration: 5/5) Kikyo opened her eyes. The spot of chakara where it had been glowing suddenly stopped. "How was that?" Ebisu cleared his throat. "Well now, I'd say you did reletively well for a first try. Now, why don't we move onto our next-" "HEY!! You promised me food!" "Oh, well, I lied. Onto the next task." She growled. 'I'll remember this.'((Leaf Concentration: Complete))

Rising after a moment, and grasping his teacher's ankle. Akai smirks. "Caught you..." He says, before he rises to a sitting position and looks around, noticing a small shack in the distance. "Ugh.. Now what..?" He asks, looking back to see his teacher walkign towards the shack. "You will be lifting weights, to strengthen those scrawny arms of yours..." Akai's teacher replies with a twisted grin, as he runs off towards the door to the shack. Akai sighs and stands, racing off behind his teacher and entering behind him. Looking at all the equipment, he sighs and chooses normal weights to lift for the time being. As he begins to flex his arm with the weight. Not even sure of what he had choose for a weight, though knowing it was heavy. [Weight Lifting - 1/3]
Continuing with the act of lifting weights, and feeling the rather painful burn of repeating the continuous act of raising his arm and lowering it. He sighs and switches hands and begins on the other hand. "Use more weight! That can not be all you can lift. His teacher says, knocking the weights from his hand and leading him to a bench press like area. Akai lays down and grabs the bar, as his teacher loads weight onto it. "Now lift it. and do.. Say.. A good twenty reps.." His teacher says, then chuckles. Akai gasps at the number, then begins on his task. Counting each in his head, as he brings it down.One... He raises the bar, then lowers it again. Two... [[Weight Lifting - 2/3]
Eighteen.... He thinks, slowly pressing the heavily weighted bar up into the air again. He had been pressing weight for a while now, and was close to being complete. He closes his eyes for a moment, trying to prevent the bar from crashing down onto him, and killing him. Ninteen... He thinks, pushing the bar up again, then slowly bringing it back down."Twenty..."He says out loud, before raising the bar up one last time and setting it on it's holds. and sitting up. "Done..." He says, panting lightly as he looks at his teacher. [Weight Lifting - Complete]

Kekkaishi touched his forehead."you have got to be kidding me. i went trough the weight running becouse its supposed to make me stronger, hell i went trough everything you have told me to do. so please for the sake of the heavens gate explain to me why i have a freaking leaf in my forehead!!!!!!"he felt the leave that the Seya had put on his forehead."and i am not kanoha either." ((leaf concetration: 1/5))
Seya sighed looks like he would have to begining explaining things again." its a leaf technique to help your chakra concetration.it has been passed down fro generation to generation"Kekkaishi looked at the leaf." i am not leaf so wouldn't that be telling this to enemies.""neither am i"they booth stared at each other.blinking."fine i will do it."Seya smiled. " all you have to do is concetrate on sending chakra to the spot where the leaf is at."Kekkaishi sighed. he felt this was a stupid exercise. ((leaf concetration:2/5))
he began to meditate, letting nothing come into his mind. after a while he felt his body reach peace.he then felt his chakra channel and the chakra that flowed trough his body. he then felt the leaf on his head and tried to urge his chakra towards that spot. damn why is this so hard. i should have full control of this?He tried to control his chakra soon it got to the point that was the only thing in his mind why is he having such a hard time with this? he seemed to be able to call out his chakra esily before ((leaf concetration:3/5))
After a few minutes of trying he was ready to give up on this.Seya looked at him perplexed, Kekkaishi had been doing great until now. could it be that when it comes to concetrating on this he couldn't do it? or was it becouse he was concetrating on that?"Kekkaishi focuse on the leaf for a while please." Kekkiashi sighed a little deciding to fallow what his sensie is telling him.Kekkaishi concetrated on the leaf. he felt the texture of it and then he felt his chackra begin to flow towards it trying to fill the holes in it. ((leaf concetration:4/5))
Seya smiled." so that is how he works"suddenly he felt a great rush of chakra as Kekkashi focoused slowly on the leaf and getting chakra there. he did not have an impresive amount of chackra. but the way his chackra was around him it had the potential to grow, and with the proper control he could make it look as if he had a lot. tough he was not even a gennin yet. this kid i think he might soon be able to surpass his parents. i hope he can fullfill his own dream.suddenly the chakra flow stoped."is that any good?"Seya laghed and shoock his head head.

"Hello errr...za....zatoichi?, okay ill just call you zat. Anyways, im Saroshi, and today we're going to do this" . Saroshi started walking towards a nearby tree. To zat's interest, the teacher took a step onto the tree, and countinued walking diagnoll, defying gravity and other rules of existence. As he got up top, Saroshi looked down at zat, grinning slightly. You are to do the exact same thing that i just did, and because i believe you can understand this yourself i won't tell you how i did it.But give you tips throughout your...failurehe gave off a smile and immeadiatly leaped off towards a nearby boulder, sitting down and starting to spectate zat and his training.
Tree Climbing 1/6 complete
Zat gave himself a short stretch, before scanning the tree for anything that could be used as a ledge for running on. Having found none, the boy calmed down, understanding that he would have to do this using chakra. Zat closed his eyes, imagining his chakra flow, with that he reversed some of it towards his legs, enveloping them in chakra. A faint glow smeared from them letting zat know that it worked. With that he bolted fof towards the tree. As soonas he reached his destination, zat leaped onto the wood, and started to move his way up. But as soon as he got on the tree, zat lost traction and flew down. Luckily it wasnt a long fall, so with a slight thump, the boy hit the soft earth. He muttered something unreasonable and went back to his starting post. He did something wrong...perhaps he didn't put enough power into it...
Tree climbing 2/6 Complete
The boy stood up. with a slight look at Saroshi, who was widely smiling, zat started to bring up chakra towards his legs once more. But this time he directed the flow of ALL of his chakra towards his lower half of the body. His legs started to glow or better yet, SHINE, enveloped in blue colour they were filled witch chakra. And a moment later the boy was already on the way towards the tree, speeding up with each second. Once he reached the tree, the boy jumped towards the trunk and succefully landed. But instead of slipping he did something much diffrent. With such high pressure forced by the chakra the brittle wood collapsed by the power of zat's enpowered legs. He made a large hole ion the trunk as his legs crushed through it, letting him hang sideways in mid-air. He felt saddened by the fact that no matter how much chakra he put he couldnt find the right amount for such a technuiqe. Suddenly he felt a presence among him, he looked back and noticed Saroshi staring at him, looking quite surpirsed of the outcome. "You force too much chakra in too much of a space, instad of drawing chakra towards your legs, concetrate it on a smaller spot...like lets say, the bottom of your feet". With that he started slowly walk back Oh, and im kinda dissapointed in you... Zat looke down in frustration, he didn't care what his teacher thought about him, seeing as how he was just a person, just a teacher that knew NOTHING about him....and yet he felt more determined to prove him wrong...Zat couldn't see the smirk coming off Saroshi's face as he walked back to the boulder...
Tree Climbing 3/6 Complete
Zat brought up his hands, forcing a seal. He usually did it to help him find the inner flow but right now he used the seal to direct it. The boy started concetrating on the bottom of his feet, creating a small hover of chakra below. It was barely showing but zat thought it was sufficient enough to start. With that he bent down a little bit, and sprinted off towards a new tree, seeing as the previous one had to be replased. Once he reached it he made the usual leap and landed on the trunk, he felt the chakra sticking to the wood, mixing with its synergy. But suddenly something was wrong, the flow stopped almost as fast as it came, and with that zat flipped and began his descent towards the muddy ground. He flipped his body in mid air, but was not far enough to make a full fip. The boy landed on his knees, looking down on the ground...He was annyoed,angry,and frustrated by the mere fact that he couldn't even concentrate his chakra this far. His taijutsu was perfect, so was his genjutsu, but if he coulnd't master ninjutsu...then....At that point zat looked back to see the same face staring at him far away from the boulder...waiting...
Tree Climbing 4/6 Complete
Zat looked over at the dreadful tree. The hole, that ripped through the middle of the trunk reminded him of failure, and that he should never be assosiated with that...not again...Zat felt a small wince on his back, and grabbed that tatoo. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of that dreadful day when he was branded traitor and banned from his own home...He felt despair and then hatred. He rose sharply, kicking the dust away from the earth, creating a whirlwind of smoke to envelop him. He was in complete rage, at his teacher, at the rock village and most importantly him...Witohut further notice the boy started runnign towards the tree, he didn't flow the chakra, nor force it to hi feet, he just ran....As soon as he reached the tree zat parted from the earth, and finnaly ran off up as far as he could. Obviously he slipped, and started to descend once more, to what seemed like the abyss. As soon as he hit the ground, he let out a grunt, coughted twice, and swiftly started coming up for another run..."Stop", the familiar voice comanded "I dont tolerate useless rage zat, i know how you feel because i went through the exact same thing with my teacher, i know that you think this is impossible but its only because you aren't controlling yourself. In this world ,zat only the calm can syurvive. When you are angry you make mistakes and when you make mitakes you die. And i don't think dying is your prefered option. Remember control your energy, your emotions, and your wants...now try again, do NOT dissapoint me zat. Saroshi seemed very serious about that speech, and so zat stood up and began to conctrate on the task at hand..
Tree climbing 5/6 Complete
Zat felt powerful, he felt his chakra bend to his will, as it unwillingly tumbled towards his feet. He was calm, he was ready for it, and most important he was willing to succeed. Finnaly the chakra started showing its taint as the bottom of the boy's feet glew bright blue. Zat stood for a second memorizing the feel of it, and when he finnaly got the blueprint of it he began to walk towards the tree. Very slowly he took a step on to it, and another...and another. His legs felt as one with the wood as he kept taking steps, one after another. Soon enough he reached the top, with a proud look on his face the boy looked down, noticing Saroshi. He was smiking, his satisfaction was approved. Finnaly he called zat down towards his boulder.Very good boy, but this is only start of your training, im proud of what you did so far but the thing thats coming next is going to make you give up much sooner.. He said with a mysterios remark as Saroshi walked off in the direction of the White water river...

"Alright.. There is this stupid little thing that the Hidden Leaf Village shinobi do, called Leaf Concentration.. Basically, you have to keep a leaf on your forehead, for a little while. And it's supposed to help with chakra control, and concentration, and whatever. So, that is what you're going to do..." Akai's teacher says. Akai raises an eyebrow, and then takes the leaf, setting it on his forehead using his chakra to try and make the leaf stay there. Just as he had made himself be able to run up the tree. Akai frowns, this appeared completely useless to him, yet he did it anyway. [Leaf Concentration - 1/5]
Akai's teacher simply waited. Keeping his half hidden gaze locked on his student's form. "C'mon, just a little while of this, and some meditation to reflect on what you have learned, and you're as good to go as any other shinobi." His teacher says, as Akai nods slightly, trying to keep the leaf from falling, and slowly being drained by the constant use of his chakra to hold it in place. Multiple things raced through his mind, the current was why he had to do this, if he managed to use his chakra just fine? He sighs again, not planning to put his questions into words that probably wont be answered. [Leaf Concentration - 2/5]
Having been just sitting here, making chakra flow into that one point and hold the leaf on his head. Akai had closed his eyes to concentrate. He was slowly feeling the strain of the constant use of chakra, but figured that was part of the challenge. All his muscles hurt, from the running with weights, and the weight lifting. Along with the constant training he had to do. Which made this sitting still and doing nothing hard on his mind. He was after all, rather tired from the events so far. Blinking a few times, but staying awake. He looks at his teacher, though unable to think of anything to say, that could break this stupid silence. [Leaf Concentration - 3/5]
Finally, his teacher speaks to sort of break the unusual tension. "This second to last challenge is almost complete.. Just a few more minutes or so, and this stupid task will be over." Akai chuckles almost darkly. "Only a few more minutes eh? I guess I can manage..." Akai says, continuing to center his chakra on his forehead, and more importantly the leaf that was there. He still felt this was stupid, but the little but of talking, kept him from falling asleep. He sighs again, waiting for these last fe minutes to pass. [Leaf Concentration - 4/5]
Akai waits impatiently figuring he will either fall asleep, or just give up before the time was up. But just as he was thinking these things. His teacher swats the leaf away and declares. His teacher grins, for a moment, then turns and heads for the door. "Follow me." He then says as he heads out of the door and outside. Akai sighs, standing and remembering the weights. Instead of taking them off, he just moves with them on, heading out the door behind his teacher. He knew all he had left was some meditation thing, but he wondered how this was going to play out. [Leaf Concentration - Complete]

Zat was petrified. What he was seeing was an incredibly sight at least. The lake they were in front of raged and menaced as it rushed past him and Saroshi. It looked like it would kill you in an instant, devouring you almost immeadiatly. "Im going to make you a deal" His teacher yelled over the loud rumbling of the water. "If you survive the end of my training, im recomending you for the chunin exam, and also medical billd, food...and if you are really desperate even shelter". Saroshi laughed furiosly, as though he was insane, but strangely enough zat understood him as himself, as though they were brothers. "So, this is how it's done, first you concetrate enough ammount of chakra like what we just did"Saroshi rabbled on, he served himself as an example as the teacher's feet began to shine with chakra. "Then you make the chakra adaptible to changes, such as water". He pointed at his feet, showing that the small hover of blue started to move around, like a jelly substance. "This will help you stay straight in the water, and above all move on the water.Watch"Saroshi suddenlly leaped straight into the watery pit, but instead of pungering straight into the bottom of the river, he landed on top of it, jumping from a wave to another wave of white water, finnaly appearing on the other side. Your training on this is done once you are over on this side. You may begin now"
Water Walking 1/6 Complete
Zat looked over at the lake with much clamed now, first he scanned for dangerous spots, that might get him trapped inside.After having found a few, zat got his route together. Now it was up for him to create the appropriate chakra manipulation and cross over to Saroshi. He closed his eyes, imagining the bottom of his feet and started to create the same thing that he did for the tree climbing, finnaly he felt a glow below his feet, letting his know that it was ready. Jut to make sure he increased the chakra level just a little bit to make sure that it will hold. Finnaly witohut fear he leaped onto the nearest rock, felt the conection...and fell inside the water. Immeadiatly he was pushed around from all directions, grabbed pulled and anything just to make him lie at the bottom of the river. Zat found a ledge to grab on, and while barely holding on, slowly pulled himself up to surface. Slowly the boy made his back up to the same place he was before. All of his clothes still leaked with gallons of water that found its way inside the fabric. But zat was happy, he even wanted to try agian as soon as possible seeing as he knew that he WILL finish this...sooner or later.
Water walking 2/6 complete
The boy slightly wiped himself off with his hands, letting the water drip down towards the rocks. He looked over the river, finding his route zat began transfering his chakra towards the exact same point he had done before. Finnaly when he got the same effect, zat applied some minor changes. He farther increased the chakra supply towards his feet, and also started changing the appearance of the chakra, he made it more squishy, and able to absorb impact, at least minimal impact. And thus he jumped once more, landing on the first rock. The chakra holded, and so zat, full of anxiety leaped onto the water. Immeadiatly he pummeled through, falling throughout the river once more. The boy grabbed a hold of a root and swiftly pulled himself up once more. He felt a little sad seeing as how the chakra was not morphing good enough. And thus he let some of the water out ,and decided to try agian
Water walking 3/6
Once again zat, after noticing his route started to bring up chakra. But then Saroshi made himself known as he yelled over form the other side Zat, don't make the chakra squishy make it flow. If it's squishy it wont be able to absorb the impact, or even small waves, itll just move away from the water. If it flows, it follows the same path as water, make sure that flows by stepping on a uneven surface and see if it changes the whole shape of the chakra instead of just the part thats taking the impact.. Zat listened carefully, bringing up every single thing to get past this. When he finnaly got the chakra to show up, zat tried to make the substance hard but still stretchy enough to survive impact. He put up his boot against a sharp rock, and noticed that the substance still only absorbed the impact on the part it was impacted on. Zat dissasembled the chakra and started to repeat the proccess...
Water waking 4/6
After a period of time zat started to understand the basic blueprint of the chakra substance needed for water walking. He brought down his foot, flowing the chakra onto his shoe once more. The chakra base appeared and zat immeadiatly started manipulating, creating a stretchy base. Finnaly zat thought he worked it out, he stepped onto the same sharp rock, checking out the reaction. Thankfully the whole shape started changing, morphing to the reaction, creating a solution that worked for zat perfectly. He was finnaly ready to pass over this watery pit.
Water walking 5/6
Zat looked over at the river, finding his route. He immeadiatly forgot it, to create another one, only through the water. The boy closed his eyes, and took a step into the raging river....and stayed in the same place. He felt good about himself almost immeadiatly, but the fun was just starting. After he took the step, zat started sliding off towards the end of the river. So to respond, zat started runing diagnolly, towards the other side, where Saroshi watched him beat this raging course. Zat made a leap avoiding a large wave, and another one over a nearby rock which brought him up to the dry land. The boy forced a slight smile, as Saroshi stood up and laughed briefly. He nodded in agreement and helped zat out of the water Took you long enough boyhe smiled cheerfully as he kept on talking. With this we are moving on to strength training seeing as you ARE a melle type, i cansee it by your build. So today we will see if you are stronger then me, or at least sufficient enough to bring me down.. And with that he continued into the forrest.

Zat followed Saroshi over to a round area filled with small to freakishly large boulders. They all looked quite heavy but zat was quite used to lifting. Saroshi moved over to a pretty large looking rock, and leaned against it "Alright to finish weight lifting to MY standards you are going to have to weight this little kid".. With that zat's teacher points at the rock hes leaning on. Zat didn't express it at all, but he was quite scared. He hand't lifted anything this big and usually all he ever lifted were some barricades when he was helping out the ANBU in creating an outpost. By your silence im getting that you understood me well enough, soo err...start by some of the small looking rocks and work your way up, oh and dont forget to stretch, i dont want you breaking a muscle or a bone on me. Zat slightly nodded, gulped and started getting himself ready
Weight Lifting 1/3
Soon enough zat was stretched and ready to lift. He scanned the rocks and found one that looked like a good start and prepared to lift it. He bent his back and just as he was about to lift "STOOOP". A loud echo ran through the training area as zat let go of the rock and straighned. "What the ******** are you doing,never bend your back when you are lifting, squat first then grab then use your arms and legs, god youre hopeless zat". Zat growled, and gave Saroshi a meaningful stare, but completed the procedure as said. He squatted, appearing in a lowered position, grabbing the rock, and then swiftly lifting with ease. It was just a starter weight and didnt do much. He moved on to a bigger one, and then an even bigger one. Until he finnaly camte face to face to the rock Saroshi was refffering to..
Weight Lifting 2/3
Zat stared at the humongous boulder, quite peterified as Saroshi just laughed, and with a spark in his eyes walked over to the boy. dont worry, its easier then it looks, you aren't weak are ya...then you can do this, i mean come on, its not even heavy right. Some how zat didnt feel quite the same way as his teacher did but he had to try anyways. He squated over the rock, bear hugged it as far as he could, and began to pull it towards him. Up to his surprise the rock moved, but barely. Beads of sweat started rolling against zat's face, as he felt the pressure of the boulder pressing down on him. Finnaly he got it over his head. All he had to do now was push and push and so he did. Clenching his teeth, and growling every econd of the way zat slowly moved the rock up, and at some point the boulder shined over the boy's arms, as he finished lifting it. Almost immeadiatly after completion zat dropped it and fell down wincing in pain. Saroshi just smiled as he walked over to the winner Good work, but you wanna know why did you do that. I mean it doesn't look humanly possible to lift up that monster, but really the reason you did it was because you have chakra orientation. When in great need you can command your inner flow to assist you and thats where strength and power comes from kid. Remember that, and now follow me, ill help you lose the pain in those arms,so dont worry" the teacher mumbled as he quite cheerfully walked off. Zat lay there for about 5 more seconds and then wandered after him hoping that the next thing would be something more...easy.

Zat stumbled upon the Kohona track field. It was pretty huge compared to what he would think a track would look like. Saroshi was standing by the track, holding something in his hand which was begining to look like...weights?. Zat, curisoly walked over to Saroshi and noticed that his guess was correct. It was a pair of scrawny looking weights, that looked like they didnt have any weight in them at all. "dont even say anything about the weights, these are special,so first of all, i want you to stretch again, and then i want you to put these on and just run one lap, okay?. Zat nodded in disbelief that this was finnaly the lucky break he wanted, but another spark in His sensei's eye made him discard that thought right away...
Weight Running 1/3
Zat accepted the weights and immeadiatly increased his uspition as the weights were parcticly weightless. He slowly put them on, and stood up awaiting another command.Great you're almost done, now i want you to flow some chakra in a finger, and then push it against each one of the weightsSaroshi was smiling even more widely, as almost he anticpated the weights to blow up. But zat did exactly as told, he pulled some chakra on his index finger and touched both of the weights. Right after his finger came aprt from the last weight, zat almost fell. The weights suddenly burst in pressure almost as there was a whole house hidden in one of them, noticing Zat's reaction Saroshi laughed loudly and explained these weigths respond to the users level of strength endurance and other fun stuff about you and collaborates a weight that will give you a maximum workout.By the way to pass this to MY standarts i would want you to run the whole map under a minute. Sooo start when i tell you, and i suggest you hurry cause i wont wait fro you to get ready. Zat stumbled over to the race track, slowly bending down, awaiting for the tell.Annnnd go!.
Weight Runing 2/3
Zat exploded out of his normal position and sprinted away from Saroshi, but even while he was sprinting he felt so slow that he was ashamed to be even sprinting. But he didn't change pace and slowly started to increase it. The weights slowly started to meld with the leg, becoming less of a problem by the second. By the time he finished half the track, he was already running faster then he ever did and he wasn't even going all out. But when he heard Saroshi yell 40 seconds, zat panicked. He never failed at anything he did and neither he wanted to, so after a little of wait zat pushed his body to the limit, running as fast as he could. He felt pain,exhaustion, felt that the body is betraying him, knowing that it doesn't want him to finish this race properly. But zat kept a still face and kept sprinting. He already saw the finish line when he heard the 50 second mark, now he was running at the speed of light, well...at least he thought so. He crossed the finish line just When Saroshi yelled done, and collapsed almost immeadiatly after crossing. The boy kept breathing and breathin oxygen, seeming to never get enough. His heart felt like it was about to explode and his lungs, cried in pain but zat still smiled as he knew that his time wasnt 1 minute, it was 59 seconds. He didn't fail...Wow, even i expected you not to pass, but you gave me hope, well all hard stuf is over for today all we have left is meditation, and remember i told you ill make you lose pain in those armsSaroshi commented as he walked off towards a nearby field. Oh, you can keep the weights, seeing as you passed they are yours now. The teacher carelesssly blurted as he slightly smiled smiled and looked away...
