The thing that was causing me so much strain was that chakra didn't like remaining still. See the route I took to make my chakra armor was to create a SOLID yer of chakra that I only worked to maintain and keep solid. Chakra by it's nature however was meant to flow, that was why the Gentle fist style of the Hyuga was so deadly, it disrupted this flow. In my case I was keeping the flow going uhe solid yer of chakra but not in the yer itself whiuch more effort to maintain than if I allowed the yer to flow.-

  In a way it was like trying to prevent fish from rotting by blowing on it with cold fan when putting it on ice worked so much better. Both methods worked but one was siderably more effort to maintain and aplish. By allowing the solid yer of chakra to flow without giving up it's iy I eased the strain on myself dramatically and saw an immediate jump in how muy body I could create it over. One and a half arms was my new ce and that's from my fingers of one hand over my shoulder and dowher arm.-

  Eveer was that I was making rapid progress extending it further which proved I had broken through that bottlened for a little while at least it would be smooth sailing. Beyond myself however there was a few things that I should mention. For starters Naruto had been snatched up by Jiraiya for a three year training period. The rest of my cssmates werely trying to rapidly improve but did seek out new opportuo better themselves.-

  Ino and Sakura both tried to learn from my sensei alongside Karin but only Sakura had the talent to keep up with the training. Ino was good at Yin chakra reted tasks but SUCKED at Yang ones which tracked sidering her . Iryonin jutsu unfortunately however had a heavy emphasis on Yang chakra usage. With my sensei's job as Hokage taking up most of her time she rarely got more than a few moments to tea person and had a mitosis e taking care of that task. I myself also had a mitosis e active running missions for her to put out any fires that pop up.-

  This made her job much easier as she khat I could take care of most missions she had needed done in a very specifiner. For example more than a few nobles of the nd of fire o be remihat even though her past was ly glorious she was still Hokage and deserved the respect that came from that title. Quite the number had thought they could pull a fast one and make secret deals with the reat vilges and I was sent to remind their of kin why that was a bad idea.-

  Naturally I left no evidehat directly said it was Konoha that did the deeds but a retarded could figure it out. The nobles quickly started to figure out that this wasn't a drunk gambler they were dealing with but the Hokage of the hidden leaf and she wasn't here to py games. Mind you this all took pce within two weeks of me getting my new pce so I was quite busy. -

  "I'm sorry you o dirty your hands with this stuff, normally it would fall to the Anbu but they have their hands full iing Danzo's remaining forces into them." My sensei said after I reported yet another plete mission.

  "It's fine, if nothing else I take it as a way to expand my beast colle a some experience. I even mao find a rather fasati this st mission." i said with a smile.

  "Oh? Anything I may o worry about like that cat of your that has terrorized evee Jonin?" she asked with a smile.

  I chuckled "Quite the opposite, she's quite shy actually. Why don't you introduce yourself Kiseki?" I said and my colr ruffled slightly as a small white vulpine face popped out.

  "Kyu~" a weak vocalization came from the throat of the little fox before the head quickly ducked bato my shirt.

  "A fox? It must have quite the ability for you to say it was fasating." My sensei said slightly surprised.

  "Yeah, it's why I named her Kiseki in fact. She has an ability that lets her directly manipute lifeford massively enriches the area she's living in. It was how I found her since her gde was the only pce covered in thick greenery despite being on the side of an otherwise frozen and barren mountain." i said holy.

  "You mean!?" my sensei asked with a gasp of realization.

  "Yeah, if she is utilized right she accelerate crop growth and harvests siderably. Her ability is also particurly good at healing as well though I haven't copied the ability yet so I 't teach it even if it would drastically help improve our Iryonin jutsu. It appears to be a heavily Yang chakra reted ability though so I at least have a pce to start from." I said with a smile.-

  "It seems gratutions are in order then, she seems like a fine addition to your colle." My sensei said with a happy smile.

  I didn't o say it but Kiseki's ability was also applicable in bat and was insidious as well. I hadn't mentio but that patch of green heaven on the side of that mountain was littered with the bones and corpses of animals that had thought to steal it from her. Ead every one looking as if it had e from a creature at the end of it's lifespan. It retty damn easy to uand how that happened after figuring out what the little fox's ability was.-

  She had forced those creatures to age decades in seds with her ability after stealing their lifeforce. Despite using such a cruel method of killing the little fox was kinda timid and preferred running and hiding than fronting threats. I should also state that she was clearly a dwarf of her species as she was little bigger than a normal housecat with a fluffy tail lohan her whole body. This was how she fit under my shirt in fact as there was no way in hell a normal sized fox would fit under my shirt.-

  Something I had kinda fotten to sider before I brought the fox home was how her ability would i with my nd that was chock full of natural energy and thus vibrant pntlife. The a turned out was that literally everything exploded in size with me even having to purposefully dial dowural energy to stop the trees from colpsing from rapid growth. It was rather amusing though how my neighbors tunes ged after they started reaping the bes from my moving here as their own pces had grown more vibrant and bright.
