Chapter 145 - Chapter 145

Naruto picked up the card and pushed a little chakra into it causing it to slice into several little pieces of confetti sized bits.

You've obtained the skill 'Natural Futon Affinity'.

[Natural Futon Affinity (Passive) Lv1 Exp: 0.00%]

The natural ability to manipulate and control wind style ninjutsu.

Passively increases Futon effects 2%

You've gained the status 'Kamikaze (-25% cost to futon jutsu, +20% damage to futon jutsu)'.

Both adults whistled appreciatively.

"That is a damn strong wind affinity," commented Hiten.

"Really?" asked Naruto, it didn't seem any different from the benefit Sakura got from her [Natural Raiton Affinity] skill. The status thing was different but did it make that big of a difference?

"Yeah, really," said Asuma. "We'll spend a lot of time working on it, I may even teach you my [Hien]. Kami knows, none of my brats will ever bother."

"Is it good?"

"Badass," answered Asuma.

It was clearly enough of an answer for Naruto.

"Anything else for you morons or can I finally kick you out?" asked Hiten.

"Ooh, I need training weights," said Naruto, remember from the exams.

"Going all out, eh?" asked Hiten. "Alright, follow me." He guided Naruto to a small shelving unit but on closer inspection it was super reinforced to withstand huge payloads. "Top shelf has the lightest weights, bottom shelf the heaviest.

Naruto used [Observe] on each of the weight sets trying to find the maximum set with the biggest return on investment.

Very Heavy Ankle Weights - Weighing in at near a 200 Kilograms, these weights are only for the dedicated. Requires Base 70 STR to equip. When equipped wearer is able to gain x2 the normal bonus STR, VIT, DEX, and SPD stats per level, also reduces usable STR, DEX, and SPD by 1/2 while equipped.

These were the best return on investment even if he was just a little short on the minimum strength requirement, something easily remedied with this stockpile of unspent points. Points he'd saved for exactly such an occasion. So with a quick seven points into each strength and dexterity, still trying to keep the two stats mostly even, he had the strength he needed to equip the leg weights. And with the two leg weights he could gain another 28 points to his strength, vitality, dexterity and speed just by training his ass off.

They cost Naruto another 70000 ryo but it was money well spent.

"Okay kid, so you've got the weapons, you've got the weights, now how are you planning to train everything I've got to teach plus whatever Jiraiya's got for you?

"Shadow clones, duh."

Asuma was caught speechless by that, but then he should have figured the kid had a ridiculous amount of chakra with the way he threw them around during the preliminary match. "That might actually work."

"I know right," Naruto cheered for himself.

"We'll let's get to training field 10, my home away from home."

Naruto followed the man or at least tried to, the weights were stupidly heavy. He gained five points of strength and vitality just on the trip to the training field.

"What took you so long?" Asuma asked, laughter recognizable in his voice.

Naruto chose to glare at the man.

"Okay, so you can work on that, for now, give me two clones."

"Why two?" asked Naruto. He was curious about why the man wanted two clones.

"One to work on chakra control and the other learn a simple futon jutsu."

"What about the [Chakra-To]?"

"We've got plenty of time. I want to get started on the futon jutsu first."

Two clones later and Naruto was left to his own devises, mostly just running laps or at least trying to. He would work on speed next.

Meanwhile, one clone was kept busy running up and down a tree, ankle weight free of course. The other clone was stuck with Asuma.

"So first things first, we need to get you a feel for wind techniques." The man walked to the three posts, setting a large candle on top of each then lighting them and lighting a cigarette. "So we'll start with you blowing out the candles from 10 meters. Then we'll work on your control and aim."

"Okay, but I don't know any wind jutsu."

"Kaze no iki no jutsu," said Asuma, forming just two handseal and breathing slowly, the wind slowly picking up speed and extinguishing the candles in a single breath and the man was standing at least twenty meters away. "It's not a powerful jutsu but it is a first step."

The clone nodded in understand. "What does your chakra do?"

"My chakra is in my lungs and pushed out of my mouth, it pulls in the surrounding currents and intensifies them by a fraction."

"I don't suppose you have scroll for this?" asked Naruto.

"You learn better from scrolls?" asked Asuma.

"Oh yeah."

"Well, for today, let's learn this one with the explanation I've given you. And any new technique I have for you I'll bring in scroll form. Deal?"

"Deal!"

Naruto's clone didn't get the chance to tap the accept button because the real Naruto stopped his training to hit the button himself. The clone shrugged and started to work based on Asuma's description and explanation.
