The Adventurous Gamer Ninja - Daichi Hekima

Chapter 55: Training Plans and Shortcuts

Daichi pondered on his next move as he sat on the porch and ate some dumplings. There were many skills he had to focus on. But he wasn't sure what to tackle first.

"Chakra control, my stats, the jutsu creation skill. Then there's the change in chakra nature and change in chakra form training. I have plenty on my plate already. Enough to keep me busy for at least 3 or 4 more years But what should I start with?"

Daichi looked at the stats again. He wanted to train his special stat stamina and raise it to 100. Currently the SP was the only remaining one that hadn't increased significantly.

"Based on my training time, I'll be able to raise my stamina points by the end of the week if I really push myself So that's one problem solved."

Daichi then thought about an important skill he had neglected. The 'Minor jutsu creation' skill

"To create or modify a jutsu I'll need excellent control over my chakra and proficiency in shape transformation and the various chakra nature. So that will be my next focus"

As Daichi went through the memories of his previous life a new thought occurred to him.

'During Naruto's wind chakra nature training, Kakashi said that the rasengan was the highest form of shape transformation. Chakra spinning wildly in every direction and contained in a sphere. With mastering just one jutsu, Naruto essentially skipped several years of training.'

A smile slowly formed on Daichi's face as he thought about the implications. 'If I can master the Rasengan, then I'll have completed the Shape transformation training. And it's a perfect jutsu to get me out of tight situations. That's the pros of learning Rasengan. The cons are Kakashi, Hiruzen, Jiraiya, Danzo and probably everyone else who's seen the fourth Hokage fight would have their eyes on me. That's not a good thing. At least at my current level anyway.'

"I can keep that jutsu a secret but I know that no secret stays buried forever. The only thing I might have any control over is how long I could keep it hidden"

Daichi weighed the pros and cons of learning that technique. After a couple of minutes he came to a decision.

"Hmm No risk, no reward I'll train the rasengan but I'll have to tell the old man. I won't be able to train it to perfection if I keep it a secret from him. But I need a convincing story for my knowledge on the Rasengan."

Daichi came up with several ways he could explain the knowledge but immediately disregarded them due to the holes in the explanations. As he thought about it, an idea came to his mind. He got up and went to Kensei's library.

Daichi started going through scrolls and books trying to find ones that detail Chakra training. After a few minutes of searching he came across a handwritten notebook detailing various jutsu. Curiosity won and Daichi decided to check them out.

"This must be the old man's notes." Daichi flipped the pages and came across various techniques of all natures. "Damn. Based on these notes the old man has studied plenty of Jutsu' during his time."

As Daichi flipped another page he suddenly stopped. The jutsu listed on the page was the one he was looking for.

"Rasengan So the old man did see it and tried to study the technique." Daichi read the observations made by Kensei.

'An A rank technique created with no hand seals. Based on my observation it is a spinning ball of chakra held in the caster's palm. Upon closer look I concluded that the chakra is spinning in several directions. The chakra control and power needed to create such a technique must be beyond normal shinobi. I have also noticed that once the ball is formed it maintains its shape without the chakra dissipating until it comes into contact with something.'

'Somehow Minato is able to maintain its form once the jutsu is created. And lastly it is powerful enough to drill through even the hardest stones. Based on my understanding this jutsu represents the 'Change in Chakra Form' (Shape transformation) taken to a high degree. Tried to recreate the jutsu with not much positive results. Needs further observation on the jutsu to replicate it.'

"Oh wow!! He's figured out most of the jutsu components from just seeing it He's a lot smarter than I thought."

Daichi looked over the notes some more and then closed the book. He started putting everything back in their place.

"The old man had shown me detailed notes on various techniques in this library. I had hoped it would be the case for the rasengan too. And looks like my guess was right. This gives me the excuse I need. I'll just say that I read the notes and am now interested in recreating the jutsu. Hopefully he'll believe it."

As he put the books and scrolls back in their place something came to his mind.

'My chakra reserve is considerably larger than before. I have almost as much chakra as a Chunin. Currently the only person who has more chakra than me in my age group would be Naruto. If any teachers in the academy or someone else tried to sense my chakra level then they would get suspicious of my growth speed I need a jutsu to mask my chakra volume.'

Daichi once again started going through books looking for the information he needed. Before long he found the technique required for the task. He read the details on the jutsu. It was a C-Rank supplementary jutsu.

"Chakra suppression technique. Lowers the chakra to the point of being near undetectable. But the person wouldn't be able to use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu while this technique is active."

Daichi looked over the notes. "I only need to lower my chakra to the point where I would look like I'm only above average in chakra reserves. That way I can use the jutsu and still keep myself under the radar."

Daichi went outside and sat down cross legged. He calmed his breathing and focused on his chakra. Just like when people force their chakra and unleash it so much that it becomes potent and visible to he naked eye, a person can do the opposite and suppress their chakra to hide themselves from almost everyone. By lowering the amount of chakra flowing through the chakra pathways one can become less distinctive and can slip past the enemy senses.

Daichi concentrated and slowly started reducing the amount of chakra flowing through him. He sat there concentrating on the task and after a minute he received new notifications.

[Through continuously suppressing your chakra volume, the skill 'Chakra Suppression' has been created.]

[Chakra Suppression - Active (LV.01): This technique allows the user to suppress their chakra volume making it difficult for others to sense the user. The higher the level the more chakra you suppress. This is a supplementary ninjutsu. This technique is activated with the Tiger Seal.]

[Effects: 1% Chakra suppression. ]

"Hmm Not bad. I need to see if I can use this technique while still performing basic academy jutsu."

"I also need to complete the tree walking exercise. Once that's maxed out, I'll raise the water walking technique to level 100. Then I'll start on the Rasengan. I have 5 days remaining before the exams begin. Better make it count."

Daichi walked to the backyard of the house and walked several meters away. He went through several seals and slammed his hands onto the ground.

"Earth style - Mud wall."

A large wall several meters in length and height erupts out of the ground. This is the first and only B rank jutsu Daichi currently knows.

[Earth Style - Mud Wall Jutsu - Active(LV.2): This jutsu allows the user to create a protective wall out of earth. There are two ways this jutsu can be performed. The user can convert their chakra to an earthen material that they spit from their mouth. The more skilled the user, the more powerful the wall. The second method is to use pre existing earth. By placing the hands on the ground, the user can raise the ground as a barrier in front of them.]

[Rank: B.]

[Type: Ninjutsu]

[Hand Seals: Tiger - Hare - Boar - Dog - Ox - Snake.]

[CP Cost: 280 Per Use.]

Daichi created two clones. One went near a tree and sat under its shade. The clone started to use the chakra suppression technique in conjecture with transformation and clone jutsu. Meanwhile, the real Daichi and his second clone jumped to the wall.

"I'm gonna abuse the hell out of the Shadow clone jutsu. And since I have the gamer's body I'll be up and ready in less than 5 hours."

Daichi and the clone stood vertically on the wall and started their fight. Or more specifically Daichi dodged or blocked the strikes coming from his doppelganger. Both of them were using chakra suppression as well. Daichi also wanted to level up his tree walking skill and he figured fighting on a vertical surface while focusing on another task would be the best way to do it. He also used transformation jutsu to see its effects while performing the suppression technique.

Daichi trained like that till nightfall. He mainly focused on the academy jutsu since he felt they were a bit lacking. Once he was done he dropped down to the ground and released the clone one at a time. Immediately several blue boxes appeared.

[Skill Leaf Academy Taijutsu's level has risen by one. x3]

[Skill Clone Jutsu's level has risen by one. x10]

[Skill Combat Arts's level has risen by one. x7]

[Skill Chakra Suppression's level has risen by one. x26]

[Skill Tree walking technique's level has risen by one. x6]

Daichi's taijutsu skills, tree walking skill, clone jutsu, transformation jutsu and chakra suppression technique all saw great growth. By concentrating on several tasks while fighting an opponent Daichi was able to push himself and this increased his skill level up speed.

"Perfect. It seems using clones is really efficient. In just 7 hours I was able to level up the clone, transformation and chakra suppression by several levels."

Just at that moment a huge fatigue hit him. Daichi's stamina and chakra points rapidly fell to less than 500. "Wow "

Daichi wobbled and fell to his knees. He clutched his head as if he felt it was going to explode. "Ohh my head." Daichi slowly got up off the ground and made his way to his room. He slowly got on his bed and quickly fell asleep.

--------------------------

[You have slept in a bed. HP, CP, SP and MP have been fully restored.]

Daichi woke up to the sound of the system message. He got up and looked around.

"That was nasty headache. And I only used 2 clones for about 7 hours. How in the world did Naruto survive with a 1000 clones training without having his brain melt?"

Daichi sighed and stood on his feet. "I need to make slight adjustments. I can't throw away such a useful training tactic. But I also can't overdo it." Daichi thought of the best way to make use of the training method. After a short while he came up with a plan.

"I'll use two clones to train but will dispel them after 2 hours. That way I'll be able to reduce the strain placed on me. I'll also have another clone meditate and that way I can bring myself to optimum level without wasting much time and can reduce the risk. If I use any more clones with my current chakra level, then my training won't be effective."

Daichi went over the plan and decided to proceed with this method. Having just slept and now energized, Daichi went outside. He jumped to the roof of his home and sat down. It was a full moon that night. Daichi sat there gazing at the brightly lit moon thinking about what the future might bring him.
