Naruto: The Wind Calamity
chapter-285

Fujin stretched his body casually as he wondered, 'Should I increase the intensity of the training seal? Though I didn't train my body for almost 3 months, I did eat healthy and ran a lot. Alright, I'll increase it from 40 to 45%.'

Fujin had long reached the maximum limit on the training seal that Hiruzen had created for him during his academy days. During his time in the Anbu, he had replaced it with a new training seal that he created. This one could apply four times the max pressure and resistance as the previous seal.

Forgetting about all the turmoil he created a few days ago, he began training with maximum intensity once again and continued for four hours straight before going to Ichiraku for breakfast.

As he ate the ramen, a smile could be seen on his face. He thought, 'Now this is a good life. Sleep long, train hard, eat delicious food and don't worry about anything else. If I can't break through the limits to reach the top and events progress just as they did in the original story, then perhaps I'll retire after the 4th War and recreate all the famous fast food chains from my previous world here.'

Ayame noticed Fujin's good mood and asked, "What's the good news, Fujin?"

Fujin shook his head and replied, "No good news. Just missed the ramen for the past few months."

Teuchi smiled and said, "It's good to have you back again, Fujin."

Fujin nodded. He lifted the bowl and drank the soup and said, "Thank You for the meal. I'll see you tomorrow."

Ayame replied, "Take care, Fujin. Don't train too much."

Fujin nodded and left. As he walked back to the training ground, he thought, 'Though a retired life enjoying all the delicacies sounds pleasant, it'd be a pity if that's all I manage to do after working so hard.

My current strength is pretty much at the Elite Jounin level. S rank is still quite far, but I feel that it is just a matter of time before I reach it as long as I keep training hard. I should reach it before Akatsuki starts collecting the tailed beasts.

And, if I can learn Senjutsu or Flying Thunder God, I'll be able to rise all the way to the peak of S rank reaching a similar level as Jiraiya or Minato. Perhaps only Nagato and Obito would be able to keep up with me then.

However, once I reach that stage, getting any stronger will be difficult. If I ignore the Otsutsuki, only four ninjas are known to surpass that level. They are Hashirama, Madara, Naruto and Sasuke. But, Madara and Sasuke were able to do it due to Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. Naruto did it due to Kurama. As for Hashirama, he is just ridiculous. No point in thinking about him.

The only way I could potentially keep up with them is if I capture and seal a Tailed Beast in me or through the Eight Inner Gates. But even these have limits and dangers and aren't sure-fire.'

Lost in thoughts, Fujin reached the training ground. He let out a sigh as he thought, 'To climb to the very top might need some drastic actions and insane planning. And, unlike those four, I won't have any help. The only advantage I have is that I know the major events in the future. I'll need to take advantage of anything I can. Only then I will have any chance. But, I need to reach rank S first. Only then I can begin acting as well. For now, it's time to continue training.'

Fujin's hands moved rapidly as he weaved hand seals.

When Fujin transmigrated to this world, he, like anyone else, wanted to reach the peak of this world. However, unlike the others, Fujin was very aware of how dangerous and hazardous this world was. The threat suppressed every desire other than his will to survive in a world teeming with adversity and danger.

As he grew, trained, fought, and overcame obstacles, his spirit grew resilient and his body honed to a razor's edge. The pursuit of survival became a testament to his unwavering determination.

However, as he slowly carved his path through the crucible of trials, a subtle transformation took place within him, imperceptible even to his own consciousness. His confidence grew. He no longer had to be worried about missions going awry. He was aware of the ninjas that could threaten his life. And he had multiple means of escaping even from the worst situations.

Due to this, a seed of evolution took root in the very depth of his being. Every step he took forward, every victory he experienced and every improvement in his strength nourished this seed. The path to survival had ignited a desire to reach the very top of this world and leave an indelible mark upon its tapestry.

Driven by this newfound desire, Fujin set his eyes on the pinnacle and began his training.

'Wind Release: Wind Explosion Clone jutsu'

Fujin closed his eyes as he sensed the movement of chakra through his body. Soon, a Wind clone was formed in front of him.

Fujin looked at the clone as he observed, 'I see. The normal Wind clone has Yin and Yang chakra in equal quantities. However, this clone didn't have the same balance. Instead, it was mainly made of Yang chakra.'

The Wind clone nodded at Fujin and looked in the opposite direction. He instantly disappeared and appeared on a boulder around 50 meters away. He placed his palm on the boulder and exploded!

Fujin observed the explosion and nodded in satisfaction as he observed, 'Good. The explosion is almost three times as strong as what my normal wind clones could do. But, with such an imbalance in Yang and Yin, this clone should have some limitations. I need to test it.'

Fujin weaved the hand signs once again and created another Wind Explosion Clone. He followed it up by creating a Wind Clone and flickered away.

The two clones looked at each other. There was no need for any words to be exchanged. Both jumped away from each other.

Two spheres of wind appeared in the hands of the Wind clone. He launched both Wind Explosion Spheres at the other clone.

The Wind Explosion Clone immediately got out of the way. At the same time, two spheres of Wind began forming in his hands. However, instead of forming proper spheres, the jutsu collapsed! The Wind Explosion Clone was surprised and looked at his hand while thinking, 'What the hell? I can't use a simple D rank jutsu?'

The Wind Clone immediately took advantage of the opening and built up his chakra.

'Wind Release: Infinite Breakthrough jutsu'

The Wind Explosion Clone immediately noticed the incoming attack and flickered out of range. He tried making Wind Explosion Spheres again but failed.

Fujin observed the fight and realized, 'I see. Since the balance is so off, the Wind Explosion Clone can't use normal jutsus. More likely, it can only use jutsus that require more Yang Chakra. I guess the only way to use this clone is to flicker and explode.

But, despite this, distinguishing between this and a normal wind clone is quite tough. Once I am able to make this clone without any hand signs, I can confuse my opponents with ease. So the effect would be quite similar to if the clone could use jutsus.'

As Fujin analyzed, the Wind Explosion Clone couldn't form any jutsu at all. So he gave up and flickered towards the Wind Clone to self-destruct and make the fight a draw. However, the Wind Clone immediately flickered away and the two began a game of tag.

Fujin watched with a deadpan expression as he thought, 'I created you two to test out the differences. Why the hell are you two playing tag?'

He immediately dispelled both the clones and analyzed, 'Making this clone without seals shouldn't be difficult. But I'll leave it for later after I become used to using it. It'll save time.'

Fujin began weaving hand seals again. Anticipation could be seen in his eyes. Of the jutsus he found, he was the most excited about this jutsu.

'Wind Release: Assassin's Rush jutsu'

Immediately, a high amount of chakra began flowing around Fujin. The chakra was rapidly converted into Wind and in an instant, a vast amount of wind was forced behind him. The wind blasted multiple trees behind him and uprooted them. At the same time, Fujin disappeared and travelled in a straight line at a speed far exceeding the speed of Wind Instantaneous Body jutsu!

In the blink of an eye, Fujin appeared in front of a boulder. Chakra concentrated in his fist as he punched the boulder. The boulder was instantly blown apart! And a wide grin could be seen on Fujin's face.

He analyzed, 'Great speed! Though it uses a lot more chakra than flickering, it will be very domineering in a battle. With practice, I'll be able to sustain the wind longer and even change my direction freely.

Combined with my swordplay or Senju Taijutsu Style, it will be extremely lethal. Not to mention, it also prevents any attacks on my back. Alright, I'll master this jutsu right away!'
