After that it was life as usual for me though there was a new development that I had been w on after getting a firm handle on the academy taught taijutsu style. See the style erfectly fine if you didn't rely on your physical body fhting like I did. Not to say I couldn't use ninjutsu as that wasn't the case but no one in my css had been able to force me to use more than my overwhelming physical advantage during our spars. Even Neji and Hinata whose was taijutsu focused were sluggishly slow in my eyes and thus never nded any hits.-

  Speaking of their it frankly boggled my mind how stupid they were in using their innate dojutsu, the Byakugan. The strange pupiless eyes had the unique ability to see the chakra in someone's body and even the air itself. The eyes also granted hree sixty vision and le reaissance abilities. Despite this massive advahe chose one of the worst ways I could think of to utilize their gifts by fog on paralyzing their oppos chakra flow via a specialized taijutsu style called {gentle fist}. -

  How the hadn't realized or if they had taken advantage of the uniquely gifted start in the mediinjutsu field they had from birth was beyohey could literally see ihe bodies of the people they would be healing without using a single invasive method like drawing blood or cutting them open. Don't eve me started on how powerful they would be if they used genjutsu as well. Genjutsu was the art of crafting illusions using chakra to affect your oppos senses. From my uand the way it works was that you ied you chakra into your target and as it circutes through them use it to mess with what they sense.-

  There were also two ways I knew of to get free of a genjutsu which is where their byakugan came in. the first was to disrupt your chakra flow somehow and the sed was to inflict very real pain on your body as the pain signal rebooted your senses for a ck of a better term. With a byakugan that literally lets you see someone's chakra flow you imagine how skilled at the art the could be but no if anything it arently frowned upon in the to use genjutsu.-

  Anyways after seeing the Hyuga s taijutsu in a I couldn't help but admit that pared to the style the academy taught it ractically godlike. The two couldn't even be mentioogether unless you were trying to show how good the gentle fist style was. The Uchiha style taijutsu was also pretty damn good but ecialized towards using ones full body uhe Hyuga s taijutsu that was all about the hands. The Inuzuka also had a type of taijutsu uo them called {ma} that involved imitating the hat they employed.-

  This sparked inspiration in me, Why couldn't I do something simir? I was a sage whose body erfectly in tuh nature itself so there was no reason why I shouldn't be able to mimic my ows to create my own taijutsu style. If I went a step further I could probably imitate the unique abilities of my beasts as well. Ren for example could vert the chakra in it's body into poison that was so highly toxic that point my parents collect it once a month to sell to other ninjas, it has had a one hundred pert fatality rate so far.-

  The rest of my chakra beast had their own unique chakra based abilities as well that I could copy. My cat could blend into shadows, my hawk could whip up attacks made out of pure wind. My turtle could use it's chakra to breath under water. My lizard could turn invisible , my snake could create physical es of itself and Kiba my wolf ninken could coat himself in lightning that made him hard to hit as his speed shot up drastically. With this knowledge I had been spending a buny time training to mimic my beasts since we started csses again.-

  It was slow going though since while my body was certainly capable of it like any form of fighting it took a stupid amount of practid attention to detail. Right now I was still on my first beast, Ren. As a human I only had four limbs unlike Ren who had nine if you include the tail so I had to break down the mimicry to certain parts of Ren that I could mimic. At this exaent I was focused oing the attacks of Rens pincers down with my hands.-

  A scorpions pincers served three purposes in battle, first they were powerful grabbers to hold things in pce. Sed they could be used as shields, finally they could tear things apart. The first and final parts I grasped easily enough as that was all muscle trol but the sed roving tricky. I knew I o create a thin but sharp sort of chakra c on my hands but I wasn't sure how to aplish it and had to resort to trial and error. My parents were quite upset with the sistent injuries to my hands I had from my chakra exploding or cutting everything including myself.-

  I only ever used a tiny amount of chakra though so the damage was nothing my strong body couldn't ha damn if it didn't hurt.

  "What are you even doing to get injuries like this anyways?" my mom asked as she ed the many small cuts on my palm with an alcohol soaked cotton swab.

  "I'm trying to imitate Rens pincers but I 't figure out how to turn the chakra into a cutting force without this happening." I pined in frustrating sihis was fifth time in as many days I had to suffer the alcohol ings.

  "Do you mean chakra flow?" she asked with a surprised look.

  "Is that what that is called? Is it something on or have I been doing something stupid this whole time?" I asked curiously.

  "Well it is primarily used by the samurai of the nd of iron but the idea was that you create a thin but fast moving edge of chakra along a bde of some sort to create a sort of extreme sharpness. In my opinion a wind release jutsu would just be simpler to learn." She expined and even added her own opinion oter.

  "I see and would it be possible to create five such edges on ones palm at once like I have been attempting?" I asked hopefully.

  "Yetting a bit ahead of yourself mister. Rather than trying to get five edges at once you should start with trying to master one before moving on to add more. You have more talent than I have ever seen but even geniuses like you o learn step by step. I 't help you learn chakra flow though since I don't know how to do it myself but I see about getting you a tutor to help you grasp it." she said with a warm smile.
