Mission to Lightning(Travel/Mission/Training)

[Enter]

Genshuku ran through the forests trying to make it towards the Lightning capital in time to catch up with the other shinobi. "Man...I better move it if I'm gonna make it to the Lightning capital in time" He said sprinting thorugh the trees.

The green rustling of the trees and the gentle blowing of the wind as interuppted for a only a split second by the jounin as he sprinted through the woods making his way to the Rice Fields border and the Claw Country. "Damn ferries are out of service for shinobi...damn it" Gen said angrily as he sped towards the border.

Gen stopped only twice in his mad sprint towards Lightning and that was to get a drink of water. He did his best to ignore the visions he saw standing upon the water. "I won't let you destroy me...no...I've got too much to forget my mind here" He said to the appartion as he departed from the lake and continued his travel.

The trees rustled as the wind blew, and the animals scurried on without a care. The shinobi's sprint destroyed that world for only split second.

Gen arrived at the Claw/Sound border four long hours after he began to run. The Lightning capital is near the border between Snow and Cloud. I better move fast Gen thought as he moved on. Nature moving on without a care.

Shinobis are strong and resilent yet live lives in tune with the ultimate beauty of Nature herself.

"Finally in Claw Country...now to cut through here and the Lightning Country...should take me at least 2 days to make it if I move fast...I guess I have to move fast" Genshuku joked as he jumped from treetop to treetop making his way through the country.

The trees rustle as the Shinobi flies.

It had been a total of 6 hours after the Shinobi had began his trek. He had stopped many times to rest and drink water...he is, after all, human. This time, however, Genshuku stopped in a small town. He went in to get a bite to eat and found a raman shop. When Gen's eyes first saw the shop, his jaw tensed, his throat dried, and his mouth began to drool. It was not because he loved ramen, but because he was extremely hungry and it was Katara's favorite food.

He walked into the shop and ordered some chicken Ramen. The keeper gladly gave the 25 year old shinobi some food. However, Genshuku did not have his money and could not pay the owner. Instead, Genshuku decided to help with the cooking and cleaning. I don't have time for this... Gen thought as he made dish after dish and worked for his meal. It took another 2 hours before Genshuku was finally relieved of his duties. "Thanks stranger for the help" The old man said before Genshuku waved and left the town as inconspicously as he arrived.

Life moves on as time stands still

"I gotta make up for lost time" Gen said as he pushed even harder and tried to move faster as he sped through the country of Claw. It would still take him another 3-4 hours before he would be near the country of Lightning. Man...this sucks... He thought as he took a break by the lake to take a drink. "I don't even want to train to save some energy...I'm such a loser...haha" He mused as he took a final sip from the stream and started his long journey towards the land of Lightning's capital city.

((is it okay if I time skip? 3-4 hours IC time?))

~~~4 hours later~~~

"Woohoo, finally...the land of lightning's border...took me long enough..." Gen said cracking his neck and wondering to himself how long it would take for him to reach the capital city.

More likely than not...it'll take me another 6 hours to reach the capital...and that is if I take breaks for water and food...uggh He thought as he jumped across the border into the lightning country.

The Shinobi thinks as the philosphers fight

[Itsuki v2]

Moved.

Genshuku was tired of running. He had been at it for over 12 hours...a large journey by anyone's estimate...especially on foot. His white hair was damp from sweat and water and his clothes drenched with the same mixture. Uggh...I need a change of clothes... He thought as he took a small break under a tree by a stream. Gen had been in the Lightning Country for 2 hours at this point and still needd another 3-4 hours before he would arrive at the capital city. "Man...this is taking too long and it's too taxing on my body" He muttered as he noticed that there were a few wolves surrounding him. Apparently they had been unsucessful at the days hunt and found the young jounin a suitable target.

"Great..." Genshuku muttered as the first wolf lashed out at him. Gen jumped out of the way and landed upside down on a tree branch. Using the branch as a platform, Genshuku pushed chakra into his feet and propelled himself off the branch, the force breaking hte branch making it fall to the ground, and towards the water. The falling branch landed on the first attack wolf. "One down...three to go" Gen said as he flipped through the seals for Zeus' Bolt. "Take this...and get" He said as he formed the three foot long lightning bolt in his hand and tossed it at the hunger driven hunters. The bolt directly hit a second wolf, severely injuring it, and causing the other two to run away in fear knowning that they could not face someone who could do things like that. The one hit by the lighting bolt began to limp away, smoldering fur making it easy to track and immense blood loss mking it an even bigger target. "I'm sorry wolf for the damage." Gen said in apology to the one he had hurt. The first wolf was unconcious and would not wake up for a long time.

I better get out of here before things get too crazy... Gen said as he dashed down the stream following it towards the capital city. I gotta keep moving He thought as he continued his little run.

~~~3 and a half Hours later~~~

After another 3 and a half hours, Genshuku finally reached the capital city's walls. "Finally!!" He yelled in happiness. After that exclamation, Genshuku began his final sprint towards the capital city and the beginning of his first mission back from his year long abscence.

Katon Hidora no Jutsu (Fire - Hydra Technique)
Rank: "B" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A technique in which the user takes the concept of Ryuuka but is capable of using it more of a destructive manner and more of a diverse manner. Instead of one large dragon like form being shot forth towards the opponent, the user is capable of increasing the amount of them into an amount of three dragonic creations with similar devistation.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: They are only capable of going in a straight line. Projectory may not change directions.
Description: A Large creation is created as the user performs the neccessary handseals for the technique. As the user does so they raise their hand up over their mouth. By taking in a deep breathe the user fills their lungs with chakra to in which egnites the moment they blow the air out. As the user blows out the creation of fire is made taking the form of a giant dragon like creature. The Dragon is quickly hurled towards the opponent as the dragon swivles and swirves moving like that of a Chinese Dragon. Then without notice or movement the large dragon splits into three smaller sized forms of dragons as they twist and turn around one another heading towards the intended target. This technique is used to where the user is capable of controling each dragon to hit at different times. This means that each dragonic form of fire may be one after the other before hitting the initial target. The user is capable of pushing so much power into the technique to where when it touches the target it is needed it is egnited in a mass blaze of glory, creating a grand explosion for each form.
Limit: Must have the Fire Release, must know Katon - Ryuuka no Jutsu (Dragon Fire Technique)

Standing outside the gates, Genshuku decided to get some training in before he began the mission. "A little training never hurt anyone right?" He said as he found a semi secluded spot to begin his training.

Forming the seals, Genshuku unleashed the giant fire dragon. As it was, it was beautiful and ornate but it was about to become more frighting. Suddenly, the firey beast split into three similarly orante dragons. However, they did not posses a great power like the single before it. They burned out of existance in an almost anticlimatic struggle to stay alive. "Damn..." Gen said as he sulked, liicked his chapped lips and tried again. "KATON: HIDORA NO JUTSU!" He said as he blasted out another firey dragon. This, like the previous, commanded respect and awe from its creator but, like its predecessor, merely burned out of existance when it split into three. "I'm getting better" Gen said simling at his increasing sucess.

"I gotta focus on explosive strength...not beauty and wonder" He said as he focused his chakra and released another giant inferno dragon. This time, the dragon split into abstract dragon forms but possesed a mighty strength. THey exploded upon contact with a nearby boulder. Okay...I can sacrifice form for pwoer and vice versa but I need htem both at the same time to fully have this jutsu mastered... Gen thought as he saw hte explosion the dragons caused. "I also better let up a little...can't have people thinking I'm some sort of enemy" He said jokingly as he formed the seals again and blew out another dragon. THe dragons became more ornate and their color shone like a mighty inferno spewed out from a volcano. Their power was also great, and equivalent to 4 exploding tags in strenght.

"Um...I should take a break...no use in trying to kill myself before a mission...I'm gonna need to take a small break..." Gen said smiling as he sat down by a rock and took a small nap. His white hair rustling in the winds, and his shirt still drenched with sweat.

After an hour of napping, Genshuku awoke with a yawn and noticed storm clouds. "Something's coming" He said lazily as he stood up slowly and stretched out his body. "Man...I needed that" He said finishing his stretches. "Time to get back to work."

"Katon: Hidora no Jutsu!!" He screamed as he unleashed the fire dragon into the atmosphere. It's orange crimson glow and detailed form would frighten even the most experianced ninja. Now all it needs is the explosive power in triplicate form Gen thought as he forced teh dragon to split into three. The dragons then exploded in a magnificent display of power. WOOHOO!! Now, if only the explosions were bigger and stronger Gen thought as he tried to assess what just happened.

"It still needs some more oomph to it before I can say I've mastered it..." Gen said shaking his head.

"Katon: Hidora no Jutsu!" Genshuku yelled as he tried once again to create the fire dragon. The fire dragon, in all its firey beauty, split into three beings and subsequently exploded as it contacted a nearby boulder. "It's getting more powerful with each attempt..." Gen said.

Before, it would leave only scorch marks, now it was obliterating visible chunks from the giant boulder Gen was using for target practice. "Just gotta keep trying!!" Genshuku yelled as he blasted out another giant fire dragon. This avatar of destruction triplicated and began a powerful sprint towards a nearby boulder. That's it... Gen thought as the three dragons made contact with their own seperate targets. The explosions they caused were strong...but not strong enough for Genshuku's taste.

"Maybe, a little more" He said, wiping sweat off his brow and slapping his drooping face a little with his hands. I'm getting older...I may not be able to be a shinobi for much longer.... He htought as he formed the seals and unleashed the dragon from his jaw. The split dragons grew larger with each attempt and they grew all the more powerful. I'm so close to getting this...it's not even funny He thought trying to keep himself motivated. The dragons exploded with the equivalent force to 6 exploding tags each.

"MORE!! KATON: HIDORA NO JUTSU!!" Genshuku yelled he unleashed the fire jutsu once more. "Take that!!" He screamed as t he dragons split into three and struck the boulder targets with a mighty explosive force of 7 exploding tags. "It still needs more power..." Gen said as he fell to the ground unconcious.

Genshuku awoke from his slumber with a yawn. "WHat is this...my second nap? I'm getting old..." He said sadly as he got up and stretched.

"Time to keep on training. I want to master this jutsu before I meet up with the teams." Gen said as he cracked his neck and licked his lips. "Katon: Hidora no Jutsu!" He yelled as he formed the seals, took in a deep breath and unleashed a giant fire dragon into the area. The dragon then tripliccated and flew off towards the boulder targets. They exploded upon contact with the force of 8 exploding tags. "Damn...just a bit more" Gen said as he sat back down and wondered how he was going to master this technique. That was when he noticed something.

"What was that?" He said hearing something in the distance. "Jigoku no mimi!" He said closing his eyes and listening for any strange sounds. He heard something. "Looks like I found myeslf a nice rich one."

Bandits... Gen thought as he opened his eyes and used the Sonar technique to try and locate the thief. 10 meters away...great...I let him get this close Gen thought pipointing the thief's location. Maybe I should show him not to mess with me... Gen thought flipping through the handsigns for Hidora no Jutsu.

Turning to face the bandit's location, Genshuku blasted out the Fire dragon and let it triplicate and let it loose upon the thief. "HIdora no jutsu!" He said as it exploded upon contact with the bandit's hiding rock. "CRAP!!" He yelled as he ran to escape the explosions.

"Again! Hidora no Jutsu!" Gen said firing another three dragons towards the bandit. The dragons barely missed their target but the bandit still received multiple severe burns on his legs. "Haha, one more time! Katon: Hidora no Jutsu!" Genshuku said firing one more attack towards the limping bandit. THey exploded with the force of 9 exploding tags.

They missed, however. Although, that time, the miss was intentional. "LEAVE! NOW!!" Gen yelled at the would be thief who quickly nodded his head and fled from the scene and away from a target turned attacker. That's what you get for messin with sound nin Gen thought, laughing almost. "I'm getting better at this jutsu" He said laughing. "I might as well head inside the capital city now. They might leave without me..." He continued on walking away from the training area.
