Honda set himself apart from the master Tanaka who stood at the side watching. He had summoned a new cube of stone form the ground now in the weight of around 50 lb's which was significantly heavier then the smaller block but would provide better test to Honda's skills appropriately. Honda stood with his hands at the readied chakra focusing seal now and soon he would let them swish between the proper seals. They switched inwardly and out while the finger's twisted properly. In the end Honda would then finish the line of seals and let his chakra coagulate within his body.

Last time he had quickly expelled it from within himself. This time however he would need to gather more and let it all rush out sort of like water but still more freely like the natural air currents of wind. The chakra within the air had exuded outward now and Honda attempted to control it strongly by taking a hold of it with his complete mental will. He seized the larger gale of wind and felt it's yearning to be free from his grasp. The turbulent wind swirled harsh through the air and headed towards the fifty pound block of stone, wrapping around it and lifting it higher into the air above.

Honda watched the heavy block rise and made sure to focus on controlling the gale fully though a gale this strong could not be wholly contained and so zephyrs lashed out here and there causing even his coattails and garb to sway in the wake. The fuuton element was a powerful and often misinterpreted release. It was perhaps as acutely effective as the raiton element if not greater in it's ability. Honda liked it equally at least.

The block had risen now into the air by about over at least twenty feet. The block was heavy and strong, and if hurled forcefully it could really hurt someone. Honda was proud of this technique, because with it he could perhaps hurl a child at least from this magnitude. A small child of course but a child none the less. Honda was watching the block waver in the air with his eye's, a vein of focus strained upon his forehead was visible as he watched and willed the block to lift higher into the air then this.

If he could only lift it more it would mean lifting the ten pound block was a sinch to perform again. And the drive to be perfect had caused Honda to achieve even more out of this. The block rose more and more slowly but steadily, as the intense wind gale held under his focus. It was hard but he made it work in time. After raising the block over 30 feet Honda would let it begin to descend carefully now. the plan was to let it settle easily so that he could demonstrate his level of strength with the release to Tanaka.

"Well...that was a bit harder then it seemed..."

Next thing's would begin to get really truly rough for Honda. Master Tanaka was tired of the easy test and wanted to put Honda up to something he could really use. So with a flash of his hand seals and his palms placed upon the ground he would send chakra through the earth in order to summon about a new block of solid straight cement. This one was far bigger and thicker then the other two and it weighed and amazing..."200lb's! Hehe let's see if you can lift that then eh!" Tanaka gloated on, boasting as if the challenge was way out of Honda's understanding.

This of course was going to be a hard phenomenon to go up against. Even Honda knew it though he still felt confident in his ability to conquer the heavy block of stone. He knew he could definitely carry and wield Suchiru within his one hand just fine and so this should also pose as no problem for himself. Honda set himself to watching the block while he brought his hand's up to the chakra focusing seal.

Within the proper seal he began to meditate slightly inwards. His mind drew into silent completeness as he closed his eyes to the outer world and imagined the void of peace entering him largely. He found a center and began to form the line of hand seals trying to keep his focus intense at the fore already. The chakra flowed smoothly into his hands and then as he reached to the middle of the line of seals the energy became intense and started to flow rather quickly and out of control. It was the design of the jutsu that was pulling on his chakra too much.

Honda had neglected the true way of the Fuuton release and felt his power going to chaos. He fought for control while trying to finish the line of seals evenly and when he finished them his body was wrapped within a small tornado of wild wind, that even caused master Tanaka to back away further from Honda's body. Honda's ponytail whipped about him in the intense wind's and he had to squint now to see clearly from the rapid spinning air pressure. And yet he focused on control and tamed his power.

"You won't get it on the first try Honda...don't test your limit's kid!" Master Tanaka shouted over the hum of intense wind pressure. But Honda was focused on his Nindo at this moment. When faced with a challenge he always stepped to the plate. No challenge would make him yield and it was in his nature to overcome the impossible. Honda strove to grow in higher strength, making the wild wind's about him organize into a swift and calmer settling of torrential power.

Of course this was taking much longer to master then Honda had expected but he realized the care needed. In his younger day he might have tried to rush the technique but this time around he knew when to take thing's slow. He willed the power of the wild wind's about him to flow through the air to the object of the stone block. The whole 200 lb's stayed as the wind's about Honda's body began to tunnel and gale it's way towards the object. It was a success though; surrounding the block with the heavy tornado of wind's that he had summoned.

"Hmph...now watch me lift this thing master!" Honda shouted confidently knowing he had come to the middle of his troubles with this level of the jutsu. Honda kept his hands folded in the seal of chakra control and furrowed his brow. The blow trempled as the gale force winds picked up speed and condensed around the object tightly. Honda knew he had got the item now, and with a bit more focus he would lift. His eye strained hard, while master Tanaka watched curiously from behind.

"Ahh! And look at that...you got two corner's lifted now boy!" Tanaka would shout in approval. It seemed he spotted that the two left side corners of the big box of stone had lifted itself up about four inches. Honda saw this too and fueled by his success he strove to bring more control and chakra to the technique. He lifted mentally willing the big block to rise, and the other two corner's rose into the air. He had managed to get the big thing to rise fully in the air now it seemed at least!

"Hehe! I told you old man...I'm all about a good challenge...though I admit this thing is fricken heavy!" Honda said over to Tanaka. The master watched on in silence for a moment longer and then shouted, " Ok then boy try lifting that thing about 20 feet high then if your so bold!" Which was something Honda knew slightly in his mind might be suggested but he was hoping against. This block was straining him mentally as he had never had to rely on such a technique to be used with his mental will alone. In some way it felt like trying to wield genjutsu.

Honda knew as well though that his heart was all for the next echelon. "Alright old man give me a moment will ya..." And from here Honda began to raise the huge block mentally again. The effort was a tough one...one that required he actually resort to closing his eyes tightly again to meditate and bring clarity to his mind. It was a mental task that took time mostly but the closing of his vision helped him understand the way of the technique.

Honda's mind gone to the darkness of oblivious thought he dreamt softly of the sound of wind. He was lost within himself now, and the entire outside world was beyond his mental clarity. Master Tanaka was watching in silence beyond him at the miracle of the technique which Honda wielded with such tenacity that it was almost unbelievable. However Honda was not aware of what was taking place. This was because he was completely within his mind at the moment.

From outside it was easy to see that Honda was actually deep in his meditations. However the stone block had now been risen slowly to a height of about 7 feet! The intense wind gales around the block where moving so fast that a cushion of air was what seemingly rested the big object. In fact it was rotating randomly in different directions as to the wind currents that took place here. Tanaka watched the phenomenon of his student and wondered how it was that Honda hadn't developed such skills earlier in his life. What he might have become if only Honda had been sought earlier in his life.

Then a dark shadow passed the mask of Tanaka's bear mask as he considered these thing's. Perhaps there really was something more to Honda's past that just had yet to become revealed in the light. Honda was a man full of strange new mysteries that seemed to forever develop themselves over time. Perhaps in time Honda would reveal more of himself but for now it was amazing just to watch him lift this 200lb object through the air to a total of 12 feet high.

Honda let his eyes open now trying to witness what he was actually effeting with his concentration. He was amazed to find that he had lifted the object higher then his own head by now. And thus a smirk crossed the confident Kazeraikous lips as he eyed this event. He turned his head even taking his eyes fully off the huge stone block to catch a glimpse of his master in deep discernment it seemed. "So then master...what do you think of my skill now with the Fuuton element!"

Honda was pushing for kudos with his words but his master was not shaken by the comment. Master Tanaka was brooding yet again on the true nature of his profession here: Getting his student to reach their maximum potential at the I.B.I. institute. "Honda...try to lift even higher...lift this block over 20 feet high like you have the other block's before it...I believe you can succeed if you focus well enough..." Master Tanaka instructed in a rather serious tone now. Honda let the jokes subside form his mind now as he saw that his master was thinking into Honda's abilities.

Master Tanaka seemed serious about this training regimen and so Honda decided that he should treat this whole matter as such as well. "Indeed then...I shall lift it twenty feet high master" Honda replied making a focused mug as well as he eyed the floating 12 foot high object. With a reaffirmed hand seal of the chakra focusing seal Honda managed to usher in a tighter grip on the wind release as he forced the 200 lb object to literally be gripped as well as he could with the gales he had summoned so far from his hand seals.

Honda would look over at the big box and watch as now he slowly and steadily forced the tightly gripped winds to lift the object with more stability. It was an amazing feat that Honda could just bring about more control by a simple bit of motivation and directive. His master pulled out the tablet and wrote some thing down in Honda's profile while the box was lifted up five meter's and then onto another 3 to make a full twenty meter's.

"How do you fell? Has your chakra dwindled during this exorcise? Are you drained?" Master Tanaka asked Honda hoping to get an understanding of just how hard it was on his body to perform this new Fuuton technique and come so far in such a short time. Honda replied, "I feel fine as ever...in fact I can't wait to see what other techniques come next master!" Honda would say with confidence. He was studying the floating box as it hovered in the air with pure mental control. it was enough to lift two small people or one decently strong person into the air.

Honda would take heed that he had definitely overcome this challenge here and so he began to control the winds and release the heavy air pressures lifting the huge cube. He lowered the box down as he let the intense focus subside some and weaken. The box fell through the air under Honda's watchful eye, controlling his chakra with measure to keep from dropping the piece of stone into a heavy fall.

Honda would watch the stone cube make it down to about a whole final 20 meter's and hit the ground with a light thud, settling nicely as the winds subsided slowly until a final loud dispersal released the jutsu altogether. Honda let a huge sigh of relief out as he felt the strain on chakra control fade from him now. A smirk crossed his lips then as Honda turned to his master who was busy writing down notes in Honda's profile. He was always doing that it seemed...Honda just hoped it was good notes!

Futon: Torihouto
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Gathering chakra to the users limbs the user gains extremely strong amounts of air underneath them allowing them to float in the air in a sort of flight. When the user is in the air, it resembles walking on water. Altitude can be altered by jumping. However this is not flight as the user can only move up or down however the user can fall and glide.
Special: --
Drawback: Uses up a fair amount of chakra. Dangerous to use in storms. The jutsu makes the user feel weightless which can be nauseating.
Description: The user gathers their chakra to there limbs evoking air to swell around there legs and arms, mainly there feet as they begin to feel weightless. With a large jump they soar into the air and wherever they stop at is where they remain as they float, normally one leg down and one leg curled up in front of them. They can jump again and again to gain higher altitude. To go down, the user merely dives or in better terms makes there feet higher then there head. Although one cannot fly you can straighten your body with your feet slightly higher then your head so the user falls but glides as they do which can gain a few miles before reaching the ground.
Limit: Must have Wind Release.

Next would come the feat of attempting to use the wind as a method of air navigation. Of course Honda could easily make use of the clouds from his bloodline techniques. However there was a technique within the Fuuton release that would actually let him simulate flying alone. Honda was shown a demonstration by master Tanaka first, as his master took to the high air by literally channeling the Fuuton release within himself and then flying up through the air by seeming to run in big leaps. A truly strange method of flying it was actually though Honda didn't really see the difficulty in such a technique.

"I don't under stand master...the technique you are demonstrating doesn't actually seem all that difficult to me..." Honda would say watching his master float around through the air. in fact Honda believed he had wielded this technique in a weaker form before. And so he channeled chakra into his body and lept for the air feeling a weightlessness take a hold of his entire body. Honda was now beyond the grip of the weight in the air it seemed. "Hmm...I believe this isn't even really a challenge for me..." Honda said as he twirled through the air, spinning and flipping amongst the gales of soft wind as he floated around the air and looked at his master with a easy smile.

"You idiot it's not supposed to be hard to perform this technique. This jutsu is one of the most basic of Fuuton techniques...however it can serve to help you fair well in many situations for less chakra then other flight techniques...understand!" The old man spoke. Honda floated to the ceiling taking huge steps as if to walk on the air itself, making his way to the ceiling. "Indeed i get it Honda would say as he made his way to the ceiling. and then bounded back straight down to the floor, floating amongst the gales of wind as if he had the wings of a bird.

He hit the ground in a upright position after flipping forward. Master Tanaka followed after his student with ease, alighting the ground as well on the winds of ease. He looked to Honda and began to explain, " The ability of travel in the world of ninja is a great skill...to be able to walk on walls, water and even Air as well is something that gives you an edge within any environment you may face an enemy...remember this..." Master Tanaka instructed wisely. Honda listened carefully and then looked over the the huge swimming pool of Olympic size.

Master Tanaka saw this and followed his pupil's thought's easily, "Exactly....aha yet see: if that pool of water where lava and you had to cross it you could but float over it with this technique safe and sound...of course you could always jump but perhaps the other side is out of your maximum jumping range...under stand?" Master Tanaka explained as he and his student approached the huge calm pool of water.

Next to learn it would seem Master Tenaka decided that Honda would be ready to begin learning how to master and make better use of his hand seals. He approached his student evenly and began to inquire of him wondering If Honda had ever practiced with sealing other then the original method with two hands. "Honda...now is time for you to learn something to help evolve your ability to rack off jutsu within actual combat...your chakra control and ability to wield your chakra with two handed seals is phenomenal...however I believe you possess the mental clarity to multi task your taijutsu with ninjutsu used on one hand..."

Honda had to scratch his head at this as he wondered about the last time he had ever really given intense thought to training his seals. It had been along time ago for sure though. He could hardly recall having trouble with the actual hand signs as he learned to summon the tempest to his hand's first most. "I don't believe I recall it...it's been so much time since I really had to be prepared for such training...I think when i was like six or something..." Honda replied trying to recall his younger day's of training.

Of course Honda did learn well even though how to wield two hands at least. Master Tanka dismissed the question and ushered Honda to pay attention. "Ok...come look now...this to begin with is the half dragon seal understand!" Master Tanaka would say demonstrating a sharp twist of his right hand, revealing the half dragon seal. Honda noticed it merely looked like a half version of the original really. "That seems easy enough master...what's the catch!" Honda would ask.

Honda would hold his own left hand up and mimic his master trying to make the seal himself. Master Tanaka would nod at Honda's gesture and then said, go on then, keep forming that seal over and over until I'm satisfied...it is not as easy a skill as you think when used fully.." Master Tanaka instructed. Honda was curious as to why he was training hand signs that he clearly understood right away without any chakra. Honda would none the less stick to his training now. He realized that master Tanaka would not deal with rebuttals and Honda had to get on it.

His hand began to twist his finger's into seals of a wide assortment here and there. He just kept switching the seals twisting his finger's lazily not really seeing any development or purpose for this. Sure he needed to remember such a way to form the seal but it being only a half version of the two handed style was not hard to remember.

Honda would continue to fold his finger's in and out of the proper form of the Hafl dragon seal. He could feel the muscles kinda stiffening over time now as he kept flexing his palm in and out of the motion. A drop of sweat ran his forehead as he focused on repeating the motion over and over repetitively. It seemed a chore that was far too pointless really. Honda stopped after a long hour more of doing this and shook the cramping from his hand. He looked to his master with a frown and asked, "Man what is with this...it's taking forever to get this crap moving man when do i get to see if it works!"

Immediately Master Tanaka whirled on Honda and slapped him on the top of the head. "DO NOT FORGET WHO IS MASTER!" He would shout before tapping Honda's hand telling him to keep going. Honda spat on the ground from his frustration and kept going onward with his hand seals. The hand rose again and he continued to twist his finger's into the seal of the dragon. As he did this he wondered if he would really have a need to perform this technique in battle while using his other hand.

As he thought of this manner of combat he would forget almost completely that his hand was swiftly and subconsciously beginning to form the seal all by himself. This whole occurrence was what master Tanaka was striving to show Honda as he could see his pupil's eyes go empty and glassy in memorization. Honda would not even notice that his master had began to walk around behind him, studying Honda from all angles as he stood there like a zombie, flexing his finger's over and over like a spazstic.

In his mind Honda imagined himself fighting with techniques that required the dragon seal. He saw himself flipping through seals and then holding the dragon half ways with one hand. His free hand he realized would always be able to wield Suchiru even if he was being attacked or already wielding a jutsu. Honda would let him self drift back to consciousness now as he wondered why he was daydreaming. Master Tanaka had made his rounds properly back to Honda's front it seemed and when he nodded Honda saw clearly.

"Sorry master...but now I see what you meant to teach me..." Honda said calmly. Master Tanaka would move into further demonstration saying, "you have only gotten your body used to these one hand seals for one hand...the other must equally be trained as well, and then there are twelve of these seals to learn altogether...the training seems futile but the pay off is grand after you master this art.

Honda nodded to his master and then looked at his one handed seal, he had finished forming it again and held it firmly this time. His finger's didn't shake or waiver...the finger's made to be stiff and firm now. Honda realized his hand was familiar with the form without even thinking of it. But his left hand had not been properly trained and it was next up. He looked to his master as he lifted his left hand to see if he was right, and master Tanaka merely waved a hand to tell Honda to begin.

Honda let his right hand Down now and began to twist his finger's in the left hand. He felt it strange and awkward to use as he tried to perform with the same dexterity as his other hand. His finger's shifted loosely at first even though he knew how to form the seal properly. However when he got started he would begin to pick up speed of course. His hands twisting faster and faster over the course of the next thirty minutes just like his right hand had begun to pick up. He watched the seal intently, over and over his hand's twisting until the cramping started.

Even through the strife of cramps he would continue, thinking not of the progress. Honda would then look over to his master as he held the seal finally stopping to take a slight break. "Master...how is it that we train to use double handed seals first before the half seals?" Honda would ask inquisitively. His master squinted behind the Anbu owl mask at Honda and stated: "It is easier to learn fool..." Of course the answer was like that and easily so but Honda wondered why ninja weren't just trained to go through the hard part first.

Honda would continue the seal as his master turned away and continued to pace around watching Honda from all angles. Honda went back to the one handed seals now as he had his answer. His hand was without cramps and he merely bought a moment to rest really. A smirk came to Honda's lips now as he imagined himself performing all his jutsu with one hand now. The I.B.I. only trained the most worthy of ninja, and they where those found outside the village or found to have strangely heavy power's at younger ages in the village.

Honda found in a way that this rare training was just another testament of his perfection in skill. He was a true prodigy capable of going far in power and technique where other's both peer and elder could never attain. And this alone motivated him to continue training his one handed seal. He watched his hand and felt the muscles warming up to the way in which he formed the dragon seal. it was soon to become second nature to this hand he knew.

It was now almost the end of this training for this seal Honda realized. His hand was still switching swiftly through the hand seal for the dragon half form. Honda was in the zone mentally as his mind had once again retreated inwardly. He was visualizing himself wielding half seals on this left hand while wielding the huge Suchiru in the other hand. Honda knew his training in the half seals was going to be hard, as he had to learn all twelve but it was well worth it to learn such skills.

His left hand was aching but the pains had long since turned to tingles of pins. The needle like sensation was dulled because he was focused on his training trying to train his hand to be used to this way of positioning. The half dragon seal was literally being forced and worked into his muscles. The hand was already used to performing hand seals of course but now Honda was making improvements in form. He saw himself holding his blade in the other hand and realized something else now...the blade was very heavy by itself.

Of course Honda knew what this would mean later on. he would end up having to train his arms to wield the huge 200 pound blade by itself. Of course he was capable of great strength already but it wouldn't hurt definitely to keep improving. it was what he was built for. Already had he reached a level of skill in the ninja world unknown to most shinobi, but Honda was going to push himself even further than that. He found himself returning to the world again now.

He looked at his hand flinching into the half dragon seal well now. The bones felt firm as he held the seal over and over and then he would bring up his other hand and begin to fling it into the half dragon as well. Already the day had been far past five hours of this training. It seemed less time to Honda now looking back in hindsight but then he had also been prone to his forms of meditation.

Honda would turn to his master holding to half seals firmly and as he saw his master walk up to inspect the firmness of Honda's finger's he would take in a deep breath. Master Tanaka inspected both hands and then after a moment of decision he nodded in approval. "You have done well with this one...now that make s one good seal done..." Next we will move on to the second seal worth learning understood!" But tomorrow we shall do that one...go home now..."
