As Akuma eyes open as he lay-ed in his bed, he simply gazed at his bedroom ceiling. "Another day, another chance to grow stronger." He said as he stood up and walked toward the shower. After several long minutes in the shower, the humanoid reptile strolled out and quickly got dress as he headed out the door with his Falchion rightly strapped on his back. As he strolled out the door, he started toward a nearby park filled with many trees, a lake and targets to practice techniques on.

After fifth-teen minutes later, Akuma arrived at the park with his red and blue cloth blowing in the wind behind him. "I should improve and get to the next level of my Dragon's Purified Scales technique". Stated Akuma as he walked toward a small lake in which he started to perform some hand seals. "Water Clone technique." Said Akuma as he decided to form a single water clone next to him. "I need you to strike me using basic taijutsu aiight, when I attempt to perform the C-Rank version of my Dragon's Purified Scales techniques." said the Reptile as the water clone nodded in agreement and understanding.

Then the Reptile took several steps back as he already knew the required hand seals needed to perform this technique since he had already mastered the first rank of this very technique. "Dragon,...Ox,...Rat,...Rabbit,...Dog,...Ram,...Tiger,...Dragon." Stated Akuma as he stated the required hand seals in a slow, low spoken tone of voice and manner. Just as Akuma finished performing the hand seals, he already knew what to do next. Knowing what the next and first step of the technique is, Akuma slowed his eyes and began to concentrate and channel some of his chakra from his central core and focus his chakra throughout his very scaly body.

Slowly, Akuma began to channel some of his chakra to his arms, then slowly to his legs, torso, and then finally the rest of his body. Trying and attempting to use his chakra control to channel the right amount of chakra to every part of his body evenly and the right amount. He hopes that he doesn't apply to much or to little at the C-Rank level of the Dragon's Purified Scales technique. After several minutes of channeling his chakra throughout his body; attempting to spread his chakra out evenly, the scales on his body began to shine as the scales on his body began to harden.

Continuing to spread out his chakra, the water clone struck Akuma in his shoulder. Nothing happen, but when Akuma struck Akuma hard in his upper right thigh area, Akuma felt some pain sensation. Feeling pain from the strike of his clone, Akuma discovered that some of the spread out chakra wasnt spread out evenly in his lower legs. Deciding to cancel the technique and start over, Akuma stopped spreading and channeling his chakra throughout his body which caused his body to react, causing the scales on his body to soften up and become like his normal scales. "Aiight, Imma try again this time but with more chakra." Said Akuma as closed his eyes once again and prepared himself to form the required hand seals.

"Dragon,...Ox,...Rat,...Rabbit,...Dog,...Ram,...Tiger,...Dragon." Stated the Reptile creature as he held completely still and focus, attempting to block out everything in the terrain. Meanwhile, Akuma began to rapidly but slowly channel his chakra from his central core and focus it throughout his body in an even, steady pace as he hoped not to make the same mistake again. Channeling his chakra to both his arms, head, neck, chest, and the complete upper-body. Akuma paused for a second, as he prepared to do the lower part of his body. Continuing what he was doing, Akuma began to spread his chakra to his lower half, channeling his chakra to his legs, hips, and feet.

Continuing to rapidly channel his chakra to his lower half, he felt his entire body reacting to the channeled chakra that was being sent to his scales. Opening his eyes, he could see and feel his scales becoming harder, feeling as if his body is impenetrable. Deciding that he should test out his new body, the water clone pulled back his arm and struck Akuma with all his strength. Striking Akuma, the hit landed and struck Akuma in the same area that was weak in his previous attempts. Then deciding to try again, the water clone struck and kicked Akuma in his back with a spin kick. Striking him in his back, Akuma couldn't feel anything until the clone struck Akuma in his groin area, his private areas. Feeling a shock of pain, Akuma fell to his knees as he leaned over in pain.

Falling to his knees, the water clone backed up a bit, taking two steps back away from the real Akuma. Knowing and fearing that Akuma would strike him in return, making him disappear. Eyes watering up from the pain, Akuma felt a shock of pain in his lower region as he stood on his knees. Tilting his head up to look at his clone, Akuma leered at the clone as he slowly rose and returned to his feet. Returning to his feet, Akuma suddenly lunged forward as he struck the clone in the face, resulting in the clone returning back into water. "Stupid water clone, now I have to make another one." Said the Reptile in a tone of voice which expressed his anger being held within him.

Forming a few hand seals, a water clone was formed and appeared next to him. "Lets do this again, but don't strike me down there or else." Said Akuma as some would think he is crazy, talking to a clone of himself. As Akuma prepared himself in performing and practicing the next level of the Dragon's Purified Scales technique, Akuma shook his hands to help relax himself as he prepared to perform the hand seals. Closing his eyes to help concentrate and focus, he prepared himself to do another sort of training a side from physical training.

"Dragon,...Ox,...Rat,...Rabbit,...Dog,...Ram,...Tiger,...Dragon." Said the quiet lizard boy as he began to not only practice the Dragon's Purified Scales technique both physically, but simultaneously train mentally, as he began to visualize the technique. Akuma planned to visualize himself performing the technique mentally. While having his eyes closed, the Lizard boy began to imagine a wooden fence and himself painting the fence. The Reptile began to also imagine himself painting the fence, which the fence represented his scales while the paint represented his chakra.

Knowing that he have to cover and spread his chakra, the paint everywhere so it would be even and complete. Meanwhile, Akuma began to physically concentrate his chakra from his central core, channeling his chakra throughout his body at a rapid but steady rate so the amount of chakra would be the same. Slowly, Akuma channeled his chakra from his central core throughout his arms, head, back, chest, etc as he quickly covered his entire upper body scales in his chakra. Feeling his chakra surging through his scales, he noticed and felt his scales hardening and become more and more impenetrable with every passing minute that his chakra is stored in his scales.

Furthermore; Akuma began to concentrate on his lower half, channeling the same amount of chakra that he stored in his upper half to his lower half. Continuing to rapidly channel his chakra to his lower half, he began to feel his lower half hardening and becoming more solid and its density increasing. Feeling ready to be struck again by his water clone, the Reptile signaled the clone to strike him. Lowering himself a bit, the clone prepared himself to strike the armored Reptile.

After a brief moment of preparation, the clone struck the real Akuma in his stomach. Nothing happen, but the clone continued to strike Akuma randomly all over his body, spreading the damage dealt upon him. Feeling completely nothing, Akuma signaled the clone to go to the next level of dealing damage to learn the Dragon's Purified Scales technique. Closing his eyes, the clone grabbed a large broken and thick branch from a nearby tree to hit Akuma with it.

After a brief moment, the clone swung with the tree branch and struck Akuma right in his back with all of his strength. As the branch struck Akuma, he felt a small surge of pain as the branch broke into pieces as splinters was thrown-ed everywhere. "Let me apply more chakra to spread across my body, then strike me again with another branch." Said Akuma as the clone grabbed another branch to strike him again. Keeping his eyes closed, Akuma continued to channel a little more chakra throughout his body with each passing second that swept by. After a total of one minute, Akuma opened his eyes to discover that his scales were shining as if it were a sheet of shined metal.

A slight grin would be produced on his face, as he signaled the clone to strike him again. Choosing to strike a different spot to surprise him, the water clone swung the branch to his upper left shoulder area. As the branch connected and collided with Akuma, the branch broke into tiny pieces, the clone took a step back as he prepared to see what Akuma reaction would be, as the real Akuma turned around.

Turning around, the water clone took a step back, fearing the reaction from the real Akuma. As he turned around, a large grin could be seen on his face as the clone was relieved to see that he is alright. "Just to make sure I mastered the technique, grab another branch and jump down from the tree with a downward strike to my head." Said Akuma as he canceled the technique to perform it all over from the beginning. As the lizard boy finished stating what he wanted the water clone to do next, he turned back around as he canceled the Dragon's Purified Scales technique.

Starting over, Akuma closed his eyes and began to concentrate and block everything out of his mind, almost as if he was meditating. Meanwhile as the clone grabbed a very large branch from the tree, he climbed the tree and waited for the real Akuma's signal to strike him once and for the final time. Back to Akuma, he began to concentrate and channel the chakra in his central core and focus his chakra all throughout his body evenly and in a steady rate. Performing the required hand seals, Akuma continued to rapidly channel his chakra evenly throughout his body. Channeling the same amount of chakra he previously had stored in his scales, he finished storing chakra into his upper body scales.

Now after finishing the top, the Reptile began to channel the same amount of chakra to his lower half scales on his body. After a few minutes, Akuma finished channeling his chakra to his entire body as he raised his hand to signal the clone to strike him now. Receiving the signal from the real Akuma, the water clone jumped off the tree and swung directly and aimed for Akuma's head. A loud cracking sound echoed through the land as the clone connected with Akuma. Connecting perfectly with Akuma, the clone fell on his back as Akuma stood there with the broken branch in pieces next to him. "Are you OK?" Asked the water clone as he waited to hear what Akuma had to say. After a brief moment, Akuma turned around and laughed a bit to himself as he finally mastered the new level of the Dragon's Purified Scales technique.
