Unfortunately for Tomomi, they didn't even give him a break before continuing with the training. It's not like the training was especially strenuous, but Tomo would've liked some food or just... a bit to rest his mind even. But nonetheless, into the next room they went. For some reason, the seal wasn't laid out like before. Apparently it had more meaning if the seals were performed by the person that created the circle of rocks. So instead, there was an assortment of small-ish rocks set aside for Tomo to use, accompanied by a picture on the wall of what the design was supposed to look like. It was a relatively simple scheme, that didn't require much, other than near perfect alignment of the stones in order for the technique to work.

So Tomomi placed himself near the pile and picked up two rocks, before glancing back at the large picture. Carefully he placed two of the stones next to each other. The rocks touched at an angle, so as to allow a circle to be formed. He carefully made his way around the room. The shape had to be exact in order for the technique to be successful. After a bit, his knees got tired and sore from moving about on the solid surface so he stood up to take a break. As he looked at the semi-completed circle, he noticed exactly how poor of a job he'd been doing. It didn't even look like it was going to become a circle.

So he went back to the start of the shape, and began adjusting the problem areas in order to get a better shape. Once he got back to where he'd left off, he lifted himself up again to look at what he'd completed so far. It did look slightly better, but not near perfect enough. He looked back and forth between his incomplete project and the picture on the wall, and couldn't help but notice the angle of his arc was too steep. So, instead of trying to fix what he'd done again, he just kicked all the rocks back to the pile and started from scratch. Perhaps this time he'd do a better job.

Tomomi began to place the rocks in the room once again. He carefully adjusted the stones as he went in order to attempt to make a large circle. The circle was supposed to be nearly the size of the room, but it didn't seem to turn out that way. Either the angle of the curve was too tight and the circle became too small, or the angle was too wide and he ran into the wall. Another idea that he attempted was to focus on quadrants of the circle on the floor. If he focused on halfway points on each of the walls, he could focus on parts of the circle one at a time, rather than the whole thing.

As he finished his first quadrant, he peered back at what he'd finished this time. Fortunately the shape seemed to be going nicely. He made a few slight adjustments until it seemed about perfect, and then moved on again. If we're utterly honest though, it's not nearly good enough. Regardless though, the next quadrant has yet to be finished. So Tomo begins placing the spherical stones in the shape. Second quadrant, DONE. He looked at the half of a circle he'd already finished. It was utterly dreadful. Perhaps someday he'd be good enough at creating a perfectly symmetrical circle on the ground with these rocks. But it definitely wouldn't be today.

Perhaps Tomo just wasn't quite artistically gifted like some people are. His perception of space was perhaps slightly warped, so when he put the rocks down they seemed fine. But then when he stood up to examine his completed work, it looked like shit. None of the rocks were at the angle he thought they were, so he'd have to go back to the drawing board. He thought for a while about how there's got to be a way to get the rocks to line up perfectly into a circle. He wasn't even at the hard part yet. This was just the outer circle. How was he supposed to get the inner circles to line up the way he wanted? Ugh, how completely and totally useless... But just then one of the two from before walked into the room.

Again, Tomomi was directed to begin placing the rocks in the design taped to the wall next to him. Despite his protests and patient convincing arguments that it may be better to stop doing this, he was forced to continue. How utterly hopeless... Tomo was gonna be turned into a hideous old fat lady with pink hair... Not that it's wrong to be a hideous old lady with pink hair, but he wasn't a hideous old lady with pink hair. Why stop not being a hideous old lady now? Things until recently seemed to be going relatively well for Tomo as a non-hideous non-old non-lady. He sighed and went about continuing the business of creating this ritual circle. Perhaps if he went slow enough, or failed miserably enough, they'd give up.

Not that Tomo needed much effort to intentionally mess up. In fact, he was unintentionally failing quite well to this point. His circles were... not circles, unless oblong shapes count as circles. At one point his circle nearly took the shape a square! Despite Tomo's previous success as an artisan, it seemed that he wasn't nearly as successful at creating a circle out of spherical stones. Inept, some might say. He continued creating another awful circle, with the supervision of the admirals this time. It seemed that they left for a few hours to take care of their Marine business, and now they were back to watch him struggle.

But the astonished expressions on their faces were hilarious. Or at least they would be if not for Tomomi's situation. Mentally he grappled with the stones, attempting to force himself to do something he appeared incapable of completing. For a while they watched him, amused, disgusted, frustrated. But nevertheless he attempted to curve the stones into a mostly exact circle. But no matter how he tried, it wouldn't go his way. He'd place ten rocks perfectly, but then he'd look back and they curved all over the place. If one stone curved clockwise perfectly, the next one curved the other way?? How did he even manage that? Again, he kicked the stones to the side, and started over.

*continue flashback*

Tomomi's efforts were in vain. Not only were the Admirals unimpressed by the extreme effort and concentration he put into this project. But they were also angry at how poor he was at making a circle. How could he unintentionally be so terribly un-gifted at something that doesn't even really require any artistic skill? He was intentionally failing, but only to a certain degree. Because he was so awful at making a circle out of rocks, he only had to try a little bit in order to make the circle even worse. It was mentioned before that he'd managed to make something like a square or diamond before, but this was definitely much worse.

The Admirals couldn't help but let their faces fall into their hands while watching Tomo finish. They might even have to resort to drastic measures to make this work. They couldn't make the circle themselves, so Tomo had to be taught how to make a circle... As ridiculous as that sounds. They scrapped the circle and started over again, leaving a pile of rocks in the corner, and a picture of a circular formation of rocks on the wall. Tomo started again, this time using an obscene amount of time to place each rock. Standing up after placing each rock, Tomo was able to form a quarter of the circle nearly perfectly.

After finishing that portion of the shape, Tomo spent slightly less effort making the next part. It only made sense that since the first part went so well, he should be able to do the second part much better. Unfortunately, that's not how things went. Tomo failed horribly again. This time the rocks were all over the place. At least now that he had a portion done, he only had to finish three quarters of the shape. He carefully undid the failed portion, leaving the perfected arc intact. Tomo began carefully placing the rocks once more, standing up again and again after each placement. Surely he'd get it right this time.

They'd grown quite exhausted of his tedious failures. The only way it seemed that he managed to do somewhat better at this project was if he spent way too long on it. Their patience had long since run thin. The lower ranked man got up and kicked the rocks to the side of the room in utter frustration. The blundering Tomo feigned shock at the thought that his efforts weren't going to be at least complimented. They hadn't caught onto his intentional floundering, but they certainly weren't going to accept any more failing. Tomo was kicked out of the room and back to his sleeping quarters where he was to wait until they decided what to do with him.

Soon after, he was brought back to the room, where he noticed a change in the space. There was a design on the ground, matching the picture on the wall. Somebody'd taken white tape and outlined the shape on the picture perfectly. It was a larger white circle, with three smaller circles inside of it. The empty space was supposed to be the spot where Tomomi sat in order to perform the technique. They gestured towards the picture, and then back towards the design on the ground in frustration. They didn't think it was going to be quite so difficult for him, but nevertheless they weren't going to let him get away with failing any longer.

Tomomi was directed towards the pile of rocks again, where he began forming the circle again. Now that he had an outline to follow it was much much easier and much faster. He quickly finished a quarter of the circle. Then half, then another quarter, then he was done with the outside. As he sat down, the admirals did a rather good job of hiding their awe at how incredible he'd done. Although, it may be more accurate to say that they weren't impressed at all. Instead of complimenting him, he was told to get the rest of the shape done. Apparently they didn't have all day to wait for him to finish this.

*continue flashback*

The next portion of the formation on the ground was definitely the most difficult. Or at least it would be if there wasn't tape on the floor outlining exactly where he needed to place the rocks. This made the process much faster. The only time consuming aspect of the process was moving the rocks from the pile in the corner to the spots where he was to place them. Soon after he started he was able to finish one of the semi-circles. Then another, and finally the last one. It was perfect, or as close to perfect as you could expect from a person placing round rocks onto a flat surface.

The rocks held each other up somewhat. However, they had a tendency of falling over, so they needed to hurry before they decided to fall again. Tomo hurriedly placed himself into the center of the circle, standing with his feet placed conveniently and precisely onto the piece of tape they provided for him. It was explained to him that being in the exact center of the circle would provide for more accuracy in the performance of the technique. It was at this moment that Tomomi felt another marvelously potent pang of regret. Was he really going to look like this hideous old lady?

Tomomi had but one option to consider. His strength mysteriously hadn't returned to him since his stunning arrival at Marineford, so there was but one thing he could do. Lying. He'd have to pretend that the ritual failed, and transform himself into something else. The technique can only be used once, so that means if he fails, he wouldn't be forced to do it again. He'd be stuck as this new form, but thankfully it wouldn't be nearly as hideous as the pink haired hag standing eagerly before him. The woman knew she had to be utterly silent, so that left Tomo with the opportunity to imagine his new form considerably before performing the technique.

*continue flashback*

Tomomi stood in the center of the formation of stones. The room seemed to hum with a strange runic energy. The space had been completely prepared for the technique he was about to perform. Incense burned at specifically oriented spots in the room. This was the moment where Tomomi began imagining the figure he wished to transform into. It wouldn't do if he just transformed into himself, that's too blatantly disrespectful. He ran through the many possibilities for the person he was going to be for the rest of his life. As he considered the restrictions for what could be considered acceptable for this situation. Ideally he'd come out of this alive and not a hideous old pink haired lady.

After much deliberation, Tomo came up with two constraints. The first was that he needed to have pink hair. The length, style and type of hair didn't especially matter though. He also needed to be female. His eyes would be a similar shade of pink as his hair. With these two requirements completed, he could pass as a younger version of the fleet-admiral standing in front of him. Perhaps in her age, she wouldn't remember her youth well enough to be entirely frustrated at Tomomi when he comes out looking nothing like her. Tomo could accept some punishment as long as it meant surviving.

Next he considered his outfit. Tomo intended to wear an outfit that complimented the youthful girliness that he was going to embody. He cringed slightly at the thought of being a woman once again. His outfit was going to be composed of a pink skirt and top with white frills all over. When you understand that Tomo actually was a boy, this became a rather frightening thought. On his feet he'd wear red flats, with ribbons tied around the lower half of his legs. Underneath his shoes he'd wear white frilly socks, and on his hands he planned to wear white lacy gloves to match the socks.

Red bows were to finish the outfit, on either arm and on both of his pigtails. The red choker around his neck was definitely going to have some kind of jewelry attached to it at some point, but for now it remained empty. It was an especially girly outfit, and Tomo was surprised that he could imagine himself as such a dainty creature. Hopefully abandoning his mannish appearance wouldn't compromise his ability to perform taijutsu. He stood in the circle concentrating his chakra, and began performing the seals required for the technique.

He formed the handseals perfectly. It'd be a shame if he messed up now after all of that training from before. One seal, then the next, and then the last three, he completed carefully and flawlessly. As the hands moved into the last seal, he imagined the smaller pink haired girl one more time, intending to transform completely into this girl, rather than the hideous woman standing before him. Just then his body erupted with blinding light. His eyes were closed, so he couldn't see what was happening, but outstanding things were happening in the room. Ribbons flew off of Tomo's body like some sailor moon shit.

As the glowing faded, and the Admirals were able to open their eyes to the sight before them, they were stunned. Entirely baffled by the young girl standing before them. Who was this kid? This definitely wasn't the fleet-admiral. What would they do now that they The newly pink haired female Tomo stepped out of the center of the circle.

Tomo's mind returned to current reality. He was in his dingy apartment that he'd been temporarily renting while he gathers funds and prepares his plans. For now he had a lot of stuff to do. The first thing on his list was learning to fly, and for that he needed the wind release. He figured he probably had at least some potential to learning the wind release. If not, he'd just have to force himself to learn it. Learning releases was supposed to be a relatively easy process for most individuals with the capacity for manipulating chakra. So here Tomo sat, on his bed with his legs crossed.

He imagined a light breeze, as he eased his chakra outwards from his body. He didn't particularly focus on manipulating his chakra in a specific way, and just let the chakra flow from his body. He imagined his shiny pink hair flowing in a spring breeze. Leaves were flowing through his mind, held aloft by a gentle gust as the energy exuded from his young, female body. Soon enough, Tomo opened his eyes to take a peak and saw evidence of a partial success. There were some lighter papers strewn about the room. Moved either slightly from their original position or onto the floor from the surface they laid upon before.

He felt he needed to try one more time just to be sure. So he closed his eyes again. Imagining the breeze as slightly stronger this time. He was definitely heading in the right direction. This time as his chakra emitted gently from his body, he attempted to force the energy to rotate around the room. Soon enough his hair was flowing about gently. Papers were flying about as if independent from the gravity that typically held them down. For a brief moment even, the sheets on his bed were lifting at the corners. But then he let the wind down. He could definitely use the wind release now.

Flight
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: Allows the user to "fly" by using Wind Chakra.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: Range of this technique is Touch. Duration of this technique is 5 minutes per Class Level. Target is the 1 creature touch. User coats the target with wind chakra allowing the target the ability of flight. The subject can simply fly. It can ascend and descend. Its maneuverability is dependent on the performer of the Jutsu. Clumsy at "D" Class, Poor at "C" Class, Average at "B" Class, Good at "A" Class, and Perfect at "S" Class. Using Flight requires only as much concentrating as walking, so the subject can attack or perform Jutsus normally. Should the Jutsu duration expire while the subject is still aloft, the Chakra fails slowly. The subject floats downward 20 meters per round for 1d6 rounds. If it reaches the ground in that amount of time, it lands safely. If not, it will fall the rest of the distance, taking 6 Armour Points of damage per 3 meters of fall.
Limit: Must know Wind Release.

The first technique that Tomo wished to learn after finding himself capable of wielding the wind release was flight. A relatively simple and popular technique that allows an individual to fly. Tomo took to the spot on his bed that he found particularly comfortable for practicing wind jutsu. He'd grown fond of this spot right in the middle of his bed. So there he sat with his legs crossed. He focused his wind chakra just as he had before, outside of his body. Just as he felt the wind blow past his hair, he brought the chakra inwards. He worked the chakra in and around his body until he felt himself gripped comfortably by the cool breeze.

Then he attempted to force the chakra upwards. He gently maintained the chakra, pushing towards the ceiling. At first nothing happened and the chakra seemed to just slip past his body. But then, after a little bit, he got a good grip of his underside, and was able to lift his body off of the bed slightly. First a couple inches, then a few more. Finally he was hovering about a foot off of his mattress. The sensation was dizzying the say the least. Perhaps one might call it nauseating. It took everything Tomo had to not hurl his breakfast all over the floor next to his bed. But instead he let himself gently back down onto the sheets.

After giving himself a moment for his stomach to settle, Tomo got back at it. Gathering the chakra for the technique was much quicker this time. He formed a film of wind chakra around his whole body, focusing on the lowest portion. After a few moments of attempting to lift his chakra upwards, he was able to support himself nicely, and lift himself slightly upwards off of the bed. Another few moments and he was about a half a foot off the bed. Then finally he was hovering around the room. Sideways, upside-down, spinning, and then throwing up all over the place. It'd take some time to clean up this mess.

Favorable Wind
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: This Jutsu produces a stream of wind that can fill a ship's sails, disperse vapors and gases, and keep flying creatures at bay.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: Range of this technique is 20 meters. Duration of this technique is 50 minutes per Class Level. Area of effect is cone shaped emanation. This Jutsu produces a stream of wind that can fill a ship's sails, disperse vapors and gases, and keep flying creatures at bay. The wind force is Strong, with a speed of about 30 mph. It begins where the user stands and blows directly away from the user; the user can easily propel a sailing vessel by standing astern of the mast and directing the wind forward to fill the sails. Tiny or smaller creatures in the path of the wind are knocked prone, or if flying is blown back 1d6 x 3 meters with a failed Fortitude Save. Small creatures are checked and cannot make headway against the wind. Small airborne creatures are instead blown back 1d6 x 2 meters. Medium and larger creatures can move normally within the effect. A favorable wind cannot push a creature beyond the limit of its range. Any creature, regardless of size, takes a -1/4 penalty on ranged increment and -10 to Observation checks in the area of a favorable wind. It can fan a large fire, disperse gases and vapors to the limit of its range in 1 round, and make sailing difficult for small craft nearby.
Limit: Must know Wind Release.

*back to present*

Continuing where he left off, Tomo decided that he'd learn one more wind technique before moving onto other business. The last technique he'd learn was another simple and popular technique. Not quite as popular as flight though. Tomo was going to learn how to just... send a large gust of wind in one direction. Being the occasionally short-sighted person that Tomomi was, he attempted to perform the technique while inside his apartment. He wasn't sure how fast the wind would go, but he wanted the wind to move somewhat quickly. If the wind wasn't strong enough to be useful, that wouldn't do. So Tomo sat on the bed, just like before with his legs crossed. He began gathering his wind chakra just like before, allowing it to swirl around his body.

When he finally felt ready, he pushed his chakra forward as quickly as he could manage. Unfortunately it wasn't very quick. In fact, it felt as if a gentle spring breeze brushing past him towards the wall before him. He looked on disappointedly, eyes drooping as the wind seemed to have next to no effect. He'd have to try again, wouldn't he? So once again, he attempted to gather some wind chakra, and let it swirl about him slightly. This had quickly become something of a meditation for him. The chakra swirled about before he gathered it in his hands this time.

Finally when he was ready, he thrusted the chakra forward, allowing it to leave his hands with the momentum from his hands pushing away from his body. Just as he imagined it, the chakra wooshed towards the wall much faster than before. It wasn't the sort of wind that could hurt somebody, or destroy a structure, but that was fine. He was totally satisfied with the quantity and speed of wind that he'd produced. Just as he was about to let the wind go, he heard a noise. It was the sound of his window breaking slightly. Then the window shattered completely, as the wind pushed its way towards the outside of the building. There goes his damage deposit...

*back to the flashback*

Tomo had failed in their efforts to pile an additional use onto his resume of skills. He was already probably the most useful slave they could've asked for, but their other intentions were... disgusting to say the least. Tomomi weaseled his way out of becoming a sexual object, and was instead brought back to where he was to continue creating weapons for his masters, the Marines. Tomo was presented with the idea of creating a chakra weapon for the Marines to use. They had no idea how to go about creating such an object, and neither did Tomo for that matter, but nonetheless he was told to get busy. So Tomo contemplated some ideas for the creation of a weapon.

The only thing that Tomo knew about chakra weapons at this point in his life, was that the abilities of a chakra weapon were brought about by various seals on the weapon itself. This is probably a relatively simple process if you have knowledge of the seals to put onto the weapon. So Tomo imagined that there needed to be a place for the seals in or on the weapon. Tomo was in the process of creating some katana, which was the usual order as of late. Tomo went through his usual process of forging the blade from a clump of shitty steel. Folding the steel in order to get rid of the impurities. Once he got a blade to the point where the hilt of the blade was completed, he added an extra step.

Tomo added a space underneath the area where the wooden hilt would go, where seals could be written onto the concealed portion of steel. It was a somewhat short, but flat area that left plenty of room for small seals to be written. He was probably incorrect about the placement of the seals, and wasn't even sure how large the seals needed to be. But until he found such knowledge, it'd have to do. He finished up the katana, and left it aside in a sheath, ready for its owner to take the weapon and go about their business.

*back to the flashback*

Tomo was awoken from his deep but short-lived sleep. It didn't particularly matter that was exhausted from his efforts yesterday. He was told to continue crafting weapons, regardless of whether he wanted to or felt physically able or not. He made his way down to the smithy he'd been slowly making improvements to. The hole in his forge was larger, but had a makeshift screen made from ceramic bricks in order to keep the heat in, but allow him to forge larger tools and weapons. It was a convenient but inexpensive innovation. The Marines probably wondered where their bricks were, but only for a moment until they replaced the two missing bricks.

Tomo was told to make more katanas, as usual. Apparently his katanas were especially coveted among the Marines. He was lucky enough to possess the foresight needed to not create perfect weapons. He didn't want the Marines to possess weapons that are too good. Regardless of this lack of quality, Tomo was in fact learning a lot. His skills improved daily, and he had probably surpassed any master he'd ever come across past or future. It'd been over a year, but considering the lack of him really doing anything else at all.

He was given a short break in order to learn the transformation technique, but now that he was done they forced him to craft more. The katana he made today was especially ornate. The steel was shit, as usual, and required several hours of folding in order to purify the dirty and disgusting lumps of metal. The hilt handed to him was ugly, as usual. He spiffed it up with some nifty ornate decorations carved into the blade, but it was still hideous. He grew tired of this tedium.
