tab Mi-jin turn to the new voice and her eyes laid upon the other new Shishin member. She wave a hand in greetings and cross her legs on the ground. Tucking her hands underneath her as she follow the brief conversation before they start up training again. "Welcome back!" Mi-jin added cheerfully. "But save some for Pawpaw." Mi-jin joked. As much as she wanted to give her lovable possum dumpling, it just won't be good for him.
Once she caught her breath and was ready to resume training, "Alright, let get back to this!" The next part was easier than the first. Hand to hand was something she was more comfortable with.
sweat drip down her brows and she wipe it off as she caught the tail end of Turtle radio message. She couldn't help, but feel concern for the mission he was on. Yet, she was confidence that he would be fine.
Another voice and a pink hair women greeted Atsuko. Mi-jin walked pass her to the kitchen to grab some water. Feeling dehyradted after all the training.
◇ She would nod and hum in agreement with their current activities, knowing full well the necessity of such for what lie ahead. "Training sounds like a good idea. I'll probably be doing the exact same thing here in a second." She would conclude, lifting her rear pack to have over her skirt before opening it to remove three small scrolls from it. They weren't much, but they were useful all the same.
Folding her legs while she sat, she would place the scrolls onto her lap and situate herself comfortably within the sand, her head turning to look at Atsuko when he asked for some guidance with his training. "Sure, I can do that. I might not be paying attention all the time though." A light titter of a laugh followed the end of her sentence, the proper hand seals being done to activate her byakugan. Rich hazel eyes turned milky white with the transition, all chakra lines becoming visible to her in the process. Watching his training, she would notice the pin sized tenketsu light up with their use, noting the broad way it released itself as he performed his techniques. At opportune moments, she would chime in on how his chakra flowed through him, pointing out the way it was released and how to improve his technique to be more efficient in its use.
It was then that she would notice a third signature coming their way from the halls of the Shishin. She wasn't aware of anyone else coming and zooming in on the face of the mysterious person gave her no indication of who it was. "There's someone coming." She would warn, two senbon being retrieved in preparation. But her seriousness gave way to a quizzical smirk as soon as the woman spoke. "Atsu-chan?" She would echo, amusement clear in her tone while she stuck the two senbon halfway into the sand in front of her.
With her alertness assuaged for now, she'd notice Mi-jin heading towards the kitchen after some of her training progress. "Could you grab me a plate of food while you're in there, please?" She would holler to her while she opened a scroll to start her training.
◇ Training ◇
The first scroll she opened explained the use of a sensory ability for a mental map, its directions a little confusing but something she could get the hang of as she read on. Closing her eyes with the correct hand sign, she would breathe in slowly, exerting chakra like a blanket across the area. It was difficult, but with more concentration, she was able to spread it across as many meters as she was able. Rough outlines of the area would soon pop into her head, the hills and ravines noticeable in her mind. With some refining, she got the hang of its use, able to look at the big picture of it while also being able to focus on various aspects without becoming lost in thought. Learned: Chizu [ Map ]
The next scroll to be opened detailed the use of a rune for tracking. Grabbing one of her kunai, she would print a small symbol on it and focus on connecting with it through her chakra. One a bond had been made, she would move it around while looking away from it, sensing the movements which it took from her hand. With a quick toss, it would fly to the ceiling and pin itself there, the direction which it took still clear to her even then. After retrieving her kunai, she would try to wipe off the rune, only to find it had a type of permanence. An interesting tidbit to remember for sure. Learned: Ryouken [10 Hunting Dog ]
The last scroll in her possession revealed the use of a technique that could glean the information from within the area of four marked spaces as long as they were close enough to each other. She would start by marking the four sides of the room they were currently in, allowing the links between each mark and her mind to be realized as she formed the signs needed for them. The moments it took to focus on the people around her were frustrating, but soon she was able to discern things about them. Because of her natural affinity for sensory, much of the information she gained came in the form of their chakra pools and their elemental affinities, the surprising one being just how deep of a well Atsuko had for his own chakra. She would soon break contact with the technique however, reading the rest of the scroll to learn what else she could find out instead of snooping on her comrades. Learned: Hofuku Kageboushi [ Creeping Silhouette ]
With creeping silhouette dispersed, another useful technique came to mind. One her mother would often use after her eyes had been taken. It was one of the few things she could do to see anymore. It wasn't difficult to remember the hand signs needed to use it, her body very still as she weaved her fingers. Once activated, her senses blanketed the area around her and even outside the walls of their secret base. It would go on like this for 5 miles while she kept her stance and handsign, allowing it to pull in information slowly. She could see why her mother used it, but that fear that even now plagued the woman kept her from becoming who she once was. Releasing the technique, she would walk out of the sand and onto more sturdy ground. Learned: Kagura Shingan [ Kagura Mind's Eye ]
The library of jutsu the base had was her next destination, storing her scrolls within so that anyone could have access to them. That was their goal after all. When she returned, she would look to her hands and think about her father, whos blood contained the power to wield black steel. He may not have taught her directly when she was young, but she could remember the way his chakra paths flowed to use it. Mimicking what she could, she would practice on her senbon, focusing on manipulating her earth chakra affinity to bend the spindly steel to her will. Eventually the large needled weapon would do as its told, bending at an acute angle while she focused. The time she put into it after made it much easier to make it do what it was mentally told and eventually would curl like a corkscrew with just a flicker of her imagination. Straightening it back out, she would place it beside the other she had in the sand and move on. Learned: Kouton [ Steel Release ]
The next thing she would envision was the way he was able to repair most of the broken metal tools they had, never needing to buy new ones for the way he could keep them looking like new. Pulling out her kunai, she would clash them together to make them more dull and dented so that she could practice on them. From her fingertips would come a thin flow of chakra as she rubbed at the marks she had made, as if she could erase them like dry erase marker on a board. Some progress was made but with a different technique applied, she would fill the dents and fold clean the scratches like they were nothing. Satisfied, she would place them with her other tools for later. Learned: Kōton: Tsukenaosu [ Steel Release: To Repair Once More ]
Delving into her memories, she would pick one that she could remember just as well; the materialization of black metal on his skin to protect one's self. With memories to guide her, chakra could congregate to her forearm to attempt the materialization of her blood given right. Small hair like spikes initially formed, like extra hairs on her arm before they started to solidify more. They would soon wrap around her skin like so many threads before thickening and melding with each other and herself. Turning her wrist as she did so, she would will the metal to grow onto her hands and crawl up her digits, the ease of movement coming to her swiftly. It was heavy, but it fit over her like a glove. Learned: Kōton: Kikou no Mukankaku [ Steel Release: Impervious Armour ]
The next thing she would try to remember was a little more painful to think about, knowing the ability being used was one of the last times she had seen him alive. The power to pierce opponents from a distance with bullet like protrusions would be a little more difficult to master, but she believed in herself. With the steel still on her left arm, the tips of her fingers would elongate, the ends narrowing appropriately for high speed travel. Focusing her chakra to rotate around three of her fingers she would aim down at the sand so that they may be caught safely. The first shot was a dud, the spin too strong with a lack in force to propell it. The second was better and the third even better than that. After a few more shots, she had gotten the hang of it, her fingers digging into the sand to retrieve her black steel so as to not leave a mess. Learned: Kōton: Teshi Sendan [ Steel Release: Ten-Finger Drilling Bullets ]
With more of her memories surfacing, she would choose another to practice; steel walls to be erected straight from any surface. Used many a time to make small houses for herself and her brother to play in. Instantly regretted when summer came along. She was slow to recall the necessary hand signs but eventually formed them all, repeating them swiftly this time with an intent to form the new defense. They would immediately jut up from the sand, giving her a start with how quickly they had raised. Something she would have to get used to, but compared to some other techniques, this one was rather tame. Using a previously learned technique, she would crumble the three walls and compress them until it formed a standing stone on the small side in comparison to the real standing stones around it. Learned: Kōton: Kōryūheki [ Steel Release: Steel-Style Wall ]
More confident with her abilities, she would pick up the next lesson in her vast recollection; the ability to create weapons from her black steel covered limbs. Envisioning a senbon for the sake of simplicity, a small spike would poke out from the center of her palm. It would soon grow while keeping its slender form, the tip still embedded but otherwise the necessary length for such a weapon. Going with the next necessary type, it would widen and contort to the shape of a kunai, its details rough but would soon snap into a more defined look at it should. Plucking the weapon from her, she put it across her forarm so that it would meld with the rest of her steel once again, knowing that the weapon would become useless once Kikou no Mukankaku was no longer in use. Learned: Kōton: Saikou no Buki [ Steel Release: The Most Awesome Kind Of Weapons ]
One more thing she would remember to learn for herself was the ability to be strong. More than just strength of the body though as this ability she had seen be used for exceptional skill in physical power. Deep focus would envelop her, willing her chakra to manifest itself in its needed form. It took several minutes of this meditation to become fully realized, the reaction to the black steel on her forearm feeling more free than it used to. Flexing it, she would target the "standing steel" she had formed a bit ago, a full and wild swing being taken against it right after she had warned the others so that they could protect their ears. With a loud clang, the hollow decoration folded in on itself and around her arm, sand jumping a half foot from around the impact. It was satisfactory enough, though getting used to it would probably be a lot easier out in the field. Returning the new ornament to its former shape, she would release the black steel on her arm to be used at a later time. Learned: Kōton: Senninriki [ Steel Release: Strength Of A Thousand Men ]
With that done, she would focus on more maruton techniques, the first of which being able to summon clones that are more useful. More assistance would come from her allies at this point, their guidance allowing her to learn the proper hand seals to perform the shadow clone technique. Puffs of smoke would billow up and two duplicates of herself would be made, a pleasant smile on both their faces in greeting. Dispelling one of them, she would keep the other to help her learn other techniques more swiftly. Learned: Kage Bunshin no Jutsu [ Shadow Clone Technique ]
With the jutsu library at her disposal, she would grab two; one meant to teach the sealing technique and the other to undo the sealing. Rudimentary, but oh so very necessary. She would study the sealing technique closely, using some paper to make the appropriate marks. Her doppleganger would read the unsealing scroll in the meantime. When it was all written out, she would take the spare kunai she had out and place it on the paper. Reading further, she would make the right hand seals to trap her weapon within, nothing but a kanji marking where it had once been placed. With that done, her shadow clone would come closer, pricking their finger on a senbon so that they may drag their thumb across the sheet. The kunai was immediately released, taking its original place from before it was sealed away. Releasing the shadow clone jutsu, the information on how to unseal leapt into her mind as though she had done it herself. Learned: Fūnyū no Jutsu [ Enclosing Technique ] Kaifū no Jutsu [ Unsealing Technique ]
The next scroll to be read was for the body flicker technique. It's swift movement and long distance, while useful in certain situations, was easy to read out in the battlefield it seemed. Still, it was something to be learned. With Atsuko's help, she would be taught the right hand seals. Upon activation, a swift movement would occur that would take her back up to the railings where she had entered from, a wave of geographical information becoming available to her in a blink of an eye. Learned: Kenchiki: Shunshin [ Sensor: Body Flicker ]
Being guided through another lesson, she would hear about how to use astral projection. With a hand sign, she would concentrate so that a form of herself could manifest without actually losing her own consciousness. Much like a regular shadow clone she supposed, except less useful in many ways. Successfully performing the technique her astral form would swiftly fly out past the lobby and out the secret door, looking out for a moment before dissipating altogether. Learned: Kozumikku Jigyou no Jutsu [ Astral Projection Skill ]
With another jutsu out of the way she would return to her original place for the next scroll from the library. A genjutsu technique was something she could always use, especially one which could fool others for a time. holding up a hand seal she would move her attentions towards the metal object that she had used previously in her training. It's smooth metal surface would start to waver some, albeit only slightly. With more concentration, the thing would change its shape to that of the other standing stones, grey and chiseled to have no hard edges. Once she had gotten the hang of it, she would release the jutsu, the sand garden stone turning once more into the reflective lump that it once was. Learned: Kokohi no Jutsu [ False Place Technique ]
A raiton technique had piqued her interest soon after; a binding jutsu that could immobilizes foes relatively well. With more guidance, she would channel her chakra slowly to her fingertips, electric chakra making the tips of her digits glow bright. With more effort despite the pain that started, they would extend themselves to a length that could wrap themselves around a body at least twice. Juya would practice manipulating them from her fingertips for a while before releasing the jutsu, content with her progress if a bit numbed by the experience. Learned: Ayatsuri Raikou no Jutsu [ Manipulated Lightning Technique ]
It was then she found the answer to the problem she had with her new lightning technique; electrical resistance. Of course. With a little brushing up on the subject she would concentrate on applying it. Her pathways would gradually insulate itself as raiton chakra passed through, the integration slow and meticulous. Sure enough, she no longer felt pain when starting up the initial application of the previous technique, but did not erase the pain that was already there from her little blunder. Learned: Teikou no Kuntou [ Electrical Resistance Training ]

Atsuko at this point had been so sucked up in training and listening in on Zetsu's comm line that he almost didn't notice Xi return, that was until she spoke.
The moment his sharingan flicked over to her they actual faded, his natural shade of dark gray returning to his eyes as he let his usual defenses drop.
He didn't speak at first, instead rising up from his resting position and closing the distance between them. He brought Xifeng into a big hug for a few moments before letting go, a stupid smile plastered on his face. "It's good to see you again Xi".
"And of course we saved you some! You'll have to tell me about your travels. I've just been focused running around here getting everyone up to speed. Zetsu is currently on a mission so we are on stand by as is" he said, quickly catching her up to speed on things. He definitely had missed her, even if he was usually fine with traveling alone. The whole strange scenario that had happened with her had unfolded into something that Atsuko felt genuinely passionate about now, even if they weren't always together.
Always so coy, her precious Atsuko. Before he even knew it, her hands were wrapped around him like they had in the past before. The pinkette's head had come to rest on his shoulder, pressing her cheek into his. He had changed so much but that adorable and aspiring leader look he had never faded, not even once. Xi's fingers combed through the long waves of black hair curiously. "What happened to my short haired leader? Did he finally decide to get a new look?" A couple of more seconds of twirling it around her fingers before coming to a decision. "I like it. It makes you look more serious. Maybe even fearsome~"
She ended the embrace and spun around to face the other female with him. A pale eyed, dark brown haired girl with mysterious markings on her face. Not that she was much to judge about that either considering the current status of her own. "Sorry about that. Haven't been with our dear old leader for quite some time now. We're...well, it's complicated. I'm Xifeng, by the way. Xi's fine though." She waved the girl off before turning her attention back to her totally not a husband or anything. It seemed like Zetsu was off and the others were out as well. The other two girls here were new to him though. Were they members or just rogues that he was agreeing to train.
"I'm guessing you've been busy with training recruits then? Perfect timing. I could use some myself. Care for a little spar when we're done though? I have to make sure our Atsuko can take on the world." Xi joked with him, wondering where those dumplings would be after Atsuko agreed or disagreed.

tab"yes~," Mi-jin said in a sing-song manner. Already halfway to the kitchen and everybody voices was too far away for her to understand. Mi-jin tucked some stray hair behind her ears as she grabbed her favorite cup from the cabinet. It was a hand made clay mug with a childish painting of all the phases of the moon. Mi-jin pours herself a cup of water with one hand and lifting the plate of extra dumpling in her other hand. She was gone only a minute and as she returned her eyes notice how close the pink haired woman was to Atsuko. "First come love. Then comes marriage." She teased as she held the plate out in front of her. "Dig in! Every bite has already been blessed, so eat as much as you want!" Mi-jin
Atsuko actually hadn't realized that she hadn't seen his long hair yet. It had just been left alone growing for so long, wild and free, that it was more of an after thought for him when remeeting anyone. It also helped hide his identity a bit more after that whole attempted assassination thing.
"Glad to hear. You're still looking as perfect as ever"
Then as she noticed the newer members he nodded to her recruiting statement.
"Yep as always. If you needed to do any training I'd be happy to help with that, and I definitely wouldn't mind another spar"
At those words his mangekyou reactivated and a grin spread on his face. Atsuko always enjoyed a good spar and to spar against Xifeng meant something else entirely for him. It was how they got together originally so in an odd way he found it romantic trying to punch each other in the face.
Oh, he was such a little flirt. Xi turned her back to go back to (where she thought) the kitchen would be and go and snack on the food that had been prepared. It took some doing but eventually she found her way there. The food smelled so heavenly after all that travel, but she was watching her figure so Xi only ate like 5 or 6 dumplings. Midway through her 3rd one, an idea crept into her head. Yes, Atsuko and her had already been bonded but a long amount of time has passed since then. She needed to see exactly what he might be throwing in a fight, and sooner was rather than later. It wasn't until the final dumpling that Xi licked her lips and made haste back to the training area.
"So then, Atsu~" she said, coming from behind him. "What'll it be first? Got any missions or things that need done? I want a clear schedule for our fight, ika~"

◇ The pink haired woman that had join them introduced herself as Xifeng while she paused in her training to hear her. The explanation for what she was to Dragon being left in the air by calling it "complicated". She knew what that meant though. As a woman, it's complicated usually was shorthand for "I don't really want to explain it right now" which she could understand. Explanations took time and effort with certain things and to a stranger, it usually wasn't worth all that breath. The wave of her hand stung her a tad however, the intent to introduce herself as well nipped at the bud... maybe some other time then.
After a short time from then, her eyes would pick up Mi-jin coming back out with a plate of dumplings in her hands. Juya was about to pause in her training to accept it but found out it wasn't for her at all. The plate instead had been extended to the new guest, a joyful exclamation from the silver haired girl stating that she could have as much as she liked. Another small blow to her emotions. But she would brush it off. She wasn't here for niceties, right? She was brought here to train and be better at what she could do for the Shishin and in turn, better for what they had in store for the shinobi nations. Her byakugan would pick up what they were saying from where she was, lip reading a strong skill of hers and would no doubt be useful to exercise while doing training that needed her focus. Multitasking ones attention was a good skill to have, after all.
◇ Training ◇
the start of her training would begin with the steel on her arms chipping away to condense in her hand, several bits conforming and lengthening into a large black steel fan. Its face vaguely resembled a snowflake with its symmetrical pattern, the weight at first over-encumbering but with some fine tuning would turn into a reasonably weighted weapon. Unconventional but the weapon type itself was of sentimental value. Training was going to get much louder from then on, her distance from the three much more than before so that she may have some freedom of movement. With the summoning of two new shadow clones, one would be thrown a similarly heavy weapon to fight back. Nothing special, simply one of her kunai that had been expanded to fit the size of a sword. The other was given all of her throwing weapons. That way she had a wider array of things to practice with. Juya would start by bracing herself, one foot pulled back while the other took a slight bend. Arm outstretched with the handle angled away from her, she readied her weapon as a shield in front of her torso. A shadow clone would charge in, sword in hand and would swing at an angle starting from the floor. A quick shift of her wrist would catch the blade head on, another tilt being made to redirect the blow entirely. The shadow clone spun in place and swung again, a horizontal strike being made to attack once more. She would block it a second time, this time having to brace it with her hand to keep it from making her reel back. Learned: Uchiwa no Sokyaku [ Rejection of the Fan ]
Once her clone backed off she would straighten out, shoulders relaxed and the handle of her gunbai now held by both her mitts. A small swing would be made and then repeated in an experimental manner. Facing her clones, she would start waving her war fan towards them, a wind picking up as she did so. The breeze she produced cooled them wonderfully, pleasant hums and smiling faces showing how nice the wind was to them. Learned: Aogukoto [ Fanning ]
S t a g e O n e [ E ] C o m p l e t e
Retouching on the first technique she learned, she would go back into a defensive stance. Her war fan was held securely in front of her, activated eyes peering through her weapon as if it was nothing. The shadow clone that held the enlarged kunai would rush in to strike again but this time with a straight piercing thrust to the center of her defense. As soon as the weapon made contact, a harsh shift would force the tip to scratch its way down and to the side which left the duplicate of herself open for attack. She wouldn't do so however as this was simply training and they were more useful to her unharmed. Learned: Mawaru Sokyaku [ Spinning Rejection ]
Her clone would return beside its counterpart with its blade hanging low in its grip, tip of the blade a half inch in the sand as it awaited the next technique to be trained in. The short haired nin would think upon it for a moment, raising her gunbai slightly and letting it spin in her hands to give her time to remember the technique used. A sudden charge of chakra would course through the weapon, genjutsu like effects starting to radiate outwards for a positive impact. The last thing she had eaten was a simple bowl of soup and she would start to feel the warmth it had given her stomach as well as the filled sensation she had when she ate it. It would seem that her clones as well would feel this, their smiles showing similar thoughts as they were hit with the genjutsu. Learned: Gunbai no Enka [ Beacon of the War Fan ]
S t a g e T w o [ D ] C o m p l e t e
the same clone would come at her again, blade raised for a swing that would fly downwards. Juya would ready herself, gunbai in hand and in front of her as normal. When the clone had rushed in close enough, she would quickly punt at the blade with the edge of her weapon. With a sharp clang it would loose itself from the clone's grip, flying a good two meters away from where they were. Learned: Gunbai no Hitei [ Denial of the War Fan ]
A light dapple of sweat was on her brow, the exercise slowly getting to her. But she had to keep going, knowing there was still so much more to train. The clone would jog to retrieve the weapon that was disarmed from them and return to where the idle clone was. The half hyuuga would then knead her gunbai with chakra again, no specific type being imbued except for Kai. A genjutsu releasing strike hopefully. The clones were still under the influence of the last thing she had cast which was quite helpful in determining how well this technique would stand. A quick E ranked chop to one of them would be made, arm being the target of her hit. A grunt would be made from the clone as it was jostled, arm being held from where the attack hit. A thumbs up would indicate the clone no longer felt the impact of her last jutsu. Learned: Gunbai no Hama [ Exorcism of the War Fan ]
S t a g e T h r e e [ C ] C o m p l e t e
Returning to an earlier learned buki style, she would go into the same defensive stance only this time she would brace the back of her war fan's leaf with a hand. In her mind, this would be used to push back against an oncoming attack, hopefully staggering them when they made a hit to her defenses. The large kunai wielding clone would charge yet again, another piercing strike readying itself to make contact. As soon as the strike would hit, the young nin would tackle from behind her war fan powerfully to make the clone's stab rebound. The dopple would be cut with their own weapon, suffering a strike along part of her arm and leg. Learned: Kyoukasareta Sokyaku [ Reinforced Rejection ]
The clone would quickly hop away to where the other one was, Juya readying her next technique. She would dig her feet into the sand a bit, war fan held close as the clones would fall further away from her. It was time to try and defend against projectiles. As soon as there was enough distance, the clone with senbon would fling 5 of them in her direction in quick succession. With a large arc of her arm, her gunbai would whip up air and sand with it. The impressive gust would pick up in strength as she continued to fan the area, senbon being dislodged from their path in all directions as she did so. Learned: Toppuu [ Squall ]

◇ Training montage prt.1
◇ Training ◇
After doing all that she could for now, she would change up her gunbai. Metal would bend and flex to fit the form of a regular fan, its leaves controlled by a mechanism on the inside of the pole portion for ease of use when in its medium range stage. There was no fabric for this type of fan, each leaf a thin blade that stretched out and laid itself with the rest. Lighter than her gunbai, she would test out the ability for it to open and close, adjusting the grip that was made to be its switch up and down to get a feel for it. Looking to her clones, she would swiftly pull down on the grip, forcing the blades to open up with a sharp snap. It would startle the clones, making them flinch in their spots as they looked back to her. Learned: Danretsu [ Snapping Apart ]
Letting the handle of the fan curl onto her forearm for now, she would grasp the fan in her left hand. Now analog, it would need to be held properly by her small hands, the face of the fan laying flat on her stomach before it was moved to extend out beside her while keeping the base in close proximity to where it was. Her other hand would raise up and rest beside her ear, fingers more towards the back of her head as her wrist was more near the conch than anything. The stance was held well enough, her reflexes feeling slightly more attentive and the speed of her actions slightly more swift. Learned: Kouzanchou [ Alpine Butterfly ]
Coming out of her stance for a moment, she would flutter the fan some, getting a feel for the weight and the movement it took. She would then close it quickly, a small snap being made that would echo somewhat in the confines of the shishin base. Perhaps a technique that is the opposite of Danretsu in only that it needed to be closed? She would snap it closed again to attempt a stronger sound that could startle those nearby. When successful, she would do it a third time with the pole attached, getting used to the actions it took to make such before moving on. Learned: Pokitto Shimari [ Closing with a Snap ]
S t a g e O n e [ E ] C o m p l e t e
A little more finesse was noted in her handling of the Egyptian styled fan, a quick spin in her hand being made wile she eyed one of her clones. She would look to the ranged clone and ready herself, keeping the fan closed as she charged in. The sword clone would move out of the way a bit s the other prepared for the strike, arms crossed over it to held defend against the oncoming blow. Thrusting forward, she would jab at the clone with the tip of her weapon, the sharpened edges digging into the clone's forearms from the strength behind it. Learned: Dekopin [ Poke to the Forehead ]
Stepping back for a bit she would keep her fan closed, swinging it in different ways to familiarize herself with its weight. A sideways chop would then be performed, stopping mid strike on one of the clones. Too strong and unwieldy. She would go in for a second time, with a more assured strike than before. The blow would slap her clone on the shoulder, a loud noise resounding as it made its mark. The clone would stagger for a bit, head spinning slightly from the move she made. Learned: Pinta [ Slap in the Face ]

Drawing her weapon away, she would snap it downwards to rest at her feet. Spinning it so that the leaves of the fan were now in her face, she would touch them. Having them already bladed was nice, but to have an added strength to them would also be just as good if things were to prevent her blades from going through initially. A surge of chakra would flow through each leaf, extending over the edge and forming neat points around each end. Learned: Kirikata [ Way of Slicing ]
A short swing with the fan would be made before grasping it as normal, ready for the next strike she would make. Each clone was at least hit twice and they'd only last for two hits more. Aiming towards the ranged clone, she would slowly circle her "opponent". Her weapon was deadly as it was, but even without the previous technique the intent in her bladed fan would be serious. An angled slice would be made, a low swing angled upward to the leg of her clone. Chakra would rend through its skin and her clone would grunt and whimper from the pain, blood pouring down soon after. Learned: Juudan [ Slicing Across ]
The chakra infusion would dissipate, leaving the edges of her fan in their normal state of sharpness. Rolling the rod in her hand for a moment, she would adjust the mechanism so that the fan would snap shut, the blades all lining up in a straight row. Looking towards the short ranged clone, she would point her extended fan towards it, shifting over so that it was closer than one one that was currently bleeding. Aligning the tips, she would swing swiftly to cut at her dopple's arm, each leaf clawing through to leave a reasonable amount of damage. Learned: Tsume [ Claw ]
S t a g e T h r e e [ C ] C o m p l e t e
Twirling her staved fan into a sandby state, she would examine the damage done to them. The one was still bleeding from her cuts while the other didn't seem as bad off. Something to remember for sure. With her weapon back in both her hands, she would concentrate on it. A stream of chakra would usher through the weapon, filling it to the brim with nothing but. At its maximum, it almost had an aura about it but that was too much. She would take some back, letting it ebb away until something just felt right at a specific moment. It was perfect; or as perfect as it could be with raw chakra. The benefits of this were currently unknown to her, but knowing such was abound to be useful at some point. Learned: Mi Me Yori Kokoro [ Substance over Form ]
With her weapon perfectly balanced with chakra inside, it was time to try a new technique. In order to send an attack through the air, she had to have one to send first. Moving the chakra through her fan, points would form once again to make blades at the ends. With their focused edges now in place, she would leap back from where she was and swing her weapon in a wide arc towards both the clones. The chakra would fly forward from where they were made, racing to the two dopples in one final attack that would destroy them for good. Learned: Tosshutsu [ Projection ]

Returning her weapon back to a normal gunbai, the would separate the handle and leaf of the war fan to tuck away one while the other was fashioned into a functional hat. After that she would practice running. Shifting on the sand to swiftly change direction until she felt a little faster. With enough of this practice, she would attempt it on the wooden floors to find that the was able to move at shushin speed. The distance from A to B wasn't vast, but it would be enough to give her an edge when needed. Tabi Koutai [ Tabi Shift ]
After sweeping up the mess she had made earlier with her fan training, she would grab a bit of the sand. It trickled through her fingers before she tossed it in front of her, particulate scattering in every direction. Thinking upon it, she would form granules of black steel in her hand to fling in the same manner but with more skill. With some concentration, she would throw it much like one would a kunai, the dust flying forward in a much more concentrated area. Tebukuro Uchiage [ Glove Launch ]
Returning the sand to herself by running her covered arm over the scattered remains, she would flex her hand a bit. She needed to become more reactive. As she was, the was a bit strong and fast but those wouldn't mean much if she weren't able to react swifly enough to stop someone. With her right hand she would thrust if forward, open palm directed at a garden stone while her left would lift to chest height and close into a fist. A few moments would be spent like that until she could sense herself becoming more attentive to her surroundings and as such, able to react to things more preemptively. Kosei no Kamae [ Fog Creating Stance ]
S t a g e O n e [ E ] C o m p l e t e
Coming out of the stance, she would grab one of the many smoke bombs she owned. The small round pellet easily fit between her knuckles. She would practice different movements with her arm, all in attempts to smash the smoke bomb in different angles effectively. The next set of attempts would be done beside one of the garden stones, the flat surface an excellent way to refine her techniques until they were as easy to do as sneezing. Endan no Jutsu [ Smoke Bomb Technique ]
while the smoke was still in the air, she would grasp two more smoke bombs in head hand. Leaping back onto the stone, she would roll hem over her knuckles much like a coin trick and leave them each between her first two digits. As swiftly as she had done so, they would already be out of her hands and smashing at her feet. The released smoke would envelop her, allowing her to use a hand sign to charge her body with chakra that would send her completely out of the smoke and onto the balcony view. Learned: Aseru [ To Fade ]

Being so fine, the smoke would stay in the air for quite some time as she prepared to train her next move. With her koutan covered arm, a thin thread would appear from the center of her palm. Its length would extend to well beyond twice her height while keeping the end between her fingers. Attaching it to one of her kunai, she would practice throwing it across and yanking the thread to make it veer into another direction. This would be done enough times to know just how to pull in order to make it go where she wanted. Learned: Insen [ Hidden Line ]
Looking over the railings and back to the smoky spot she had left, she would grab a small cloth from her pouch. The little piece of fabric would be held between both fingers before a surge of chakra would come forth from her. Infusing with the cloth, it would grow to her measurements exactly. Throwing it over and behind herself, she would leap up onto the edge and grip the ends of each cloth with her limbs before jumping off to float down where she had previously been. Learned: Takoage no Waza [ Art of Kite Flying ]
The smoke around her would swirl and and expand around her, curling away in more visible forms than before. Even with her byakugan activated, things seemed to be more clear. She could see the patterns it took as it followed the air currents, not unlike smoke from a cigarette. Her time playing with smoke bombs seemed to have given her an advantage now that enough time has passed. Learned: Kemuri no Shikaku [ Sight through Smoke ]
now below with the sand under her shoes, she would make a thread out of her palm again. Several more would spring up in the same fashion, all lined up neatly. Weaving together to form a net, she would grasp it much like a fisherman would to cast it over a wide area. Yanking it back, she would do it again until her movements were fluid and the toss of it was accurate. Learned: Juu Kousen no Hitojichi [ Hostage of Ten Steel Wires ]
S t a g e T h r e e [ C ] C o m p l e t e
She would eventually return the steel from whence it came, nothing but the dents in the sand to show it had been there. Taking out a new smoke bomb she would look at it then look to the others in the room. It was too dangerous to be practicing with deadly smoke bombs so instead she carefully took one apart to explore its contents. The accelerant, the shell, and the powder that was the smoke bomb itself would become recognizable to her. Reassembling it she would put it away for a later time, better for the knowledge she gained by it. Learned: Biransei Endan no Jutsu [ Poisonous Smoke Bomb Technique ]
Grabbing a normal smoke pellet, she would tap her toe a bit on the sand to think for a moment. The application of thiscould vary greatly, but one thing in particular might be reasonably suited to her tactics. Summoning a regular clone, she would thrust her hand through it to try and lodge the smoke bomb within. It took a few tries to nail, the smoke bomb eventually being held tight where she had placed it. Her byakugan couldn't see it within her clone which meant it was a success. Learned: Zanzou no Jutsu [ Afterimage Technique ]
She would highfive herself for all the accomplishments so far, the clone's hand phasing through when she did so. Her momentary forgetfulness made her feel silly but not ashamed, a light giggle at herself being made for it. She couldn't stop now though. Dropping back to a more serious face, she would leap back and throw a smokebomb beneath her and three more at the feet of her clone. As swiftly as she could be her kunai was aimed for a tactical advantage, tip of it already skewering her clone's back only for it to blow out a large area of smoke like it was supposed to. Learned: Funkei no Jutsu [ Decapitation Technique ]
skipping backwards out of the smoke, she would draw out three more smoke pellets. Each one was between each knuckle of her right hand. Throwing the trio to the ground for another smokescreen, she would commit to a series of hand signs. Her chakra would recede from her as if sleeping within her body, the view from her doujutsu showing that none of her chakra lines or tenketsu were visible. Even her normal senses couldn't pick herself up as she moved around, the use of her chakra presumed to be a bad idea in this state if she were to be using it to escape. But perhaps could be used in conjunction if done properly one day. Learned: Gisou no Waza [ Art of Camouflage ]

tab after passing the tray, Mi-jin didn't realize her rudeness until it was too late. Pawpaw was better at the hospitality then she was, but it would be something that she'll work on. "A mission? Like turtle? When can I go on missions too?" Mi-jin asked. All she has done so far was trained, which was for the best as she just started her shinobi training.
Atsuko helped along Juya with her training if she ever asked for it and eventually once she was finished got around to answering the next question at hand.
For a rare occurrence the Uchiha faltered in his words, a very noticeable pause before he answered. It seemed there was much on his mind.
But before he could speak what was on his mind he realized that there was something else that needed to be dealt with as well. He hadn't heard from Turtle in sometime. He pressed a finger to his coms and said "This is dragon. I'm sending Tiger your way Turtle, if you can still hear me meet her at the gates". He wasn't sure if the boy would respond or not.
"Juya. I have a favor to ask. I want you to meet up with Zetsu if you can, I need someone to work with him who is a bit more level headed. It's something he needs right now. He was taking a mission in Giman and last checked in heading out to Takumi" he said towards Juya. She was still somewhat new to the group but he already had seen great promise in her. That promise especially was for someone who could help level out the other members who may have been a bit more wild. Atsuko already had an inkling on what Zetsu's new obsession was becoming. It was something though that he had to tackle carefully, or risk pushing the boy away entirely.
"I also have a mission I need to be undertaking soon. The leaf village still houses the Uchiha Tablet. I was able to read it before our relations crumbled any further and there is still much on it that I cannot read. It has much that could prove useful for our fight against the UHV and any future endevours. Unfortunately the next step I must take is acquiring another pair of mangekyou sharingan....something I intend to do by tracking down an organ seller in Giman. It will be extremely dangerous, and I wouldn't force either of you to join me"
He said this glancing between Mijin and Xifeng. There was a moral issue here to some degree as well that could be easily felt. He wasn't exactly hunting down another uchiha but he still was pursuing someone out of a more personal gain. The organ seller wasn't exactly a good person either, but it was still an action that could be arguably seen as quite dicey.
It was ultimately what he thought was necessary. The tablet spoke of the power that could be gained by combining mangekyou, and beyond that there was much more that he could not read. The tablet had become more decipherable as his eyes evolved so logic dictated that he would be able to read whatever came next if he managed to complete this step. The UHV had already proven to be very formidable, with a lot of surprises up their sleeves. This meant that the Shishin couldn't take any risks and had to get every possible advantage in this war.
Atsuko would start barking orders aloud in that adorable way that made Xifeng absolutely smitten with him. She stood quietly and digested all the information being thrown around. Turtle was off and away on a mission no doubt, likely having been stuck up somewhere or probably out goofing off while it was mission time. She was about to volunteer ahead of time to go with some of the noobies in case something happened but no such like came to her, the task falling upon the shoulders of Juya, the other girl that had been training nearby. For an isolated group, her husband was building up quite the harem here.
It wasn't until he spoke about his mission that Xi paid full attention. He was to go about unlocking the next step in his personal evolution, the mangekyou sharingan. While it probably wasn't going to be the cleanest job in the world, Xi would be beside herself if she was to allow Atsuko to journey off himself about this. "Let me come with you. You might need back up in case anything happens." she volunteered herself.
