As Arashi stood there in front of a field of grass, standing in front of a large, dense oak tree. He wanted to get back and learn some more ninjutsu technique, he wanted to learn more high-ranked techniques. As he stood on the field of grass, he withdrew a scroll writtened with several ninjutsu techniques of various rankings in which he borrowed from the library. Looking and scanning over the book, he stopped at a page, written with information about the Ninpou: Bakuyaku Shuriken technique. A high-ranked technique involving a shuriken exploding.

This technique quickly caught his attention, as he knew that he can cause a lot of damage by just using a simple shuriken to explode. This technique required him to imbue a shuriken with a lot of chakra, which when throwned can cause it to explode. The explosion was powerful; not because of the explosion part, but the explosion is littered with tiny scraps of metal that could impale and kill an opponent(s). The combination of the explosion and the tiny scraps of metal is very deadly and can impale the opponent's body, killing them quite easily without even moving from a single spot. One shuriken can and is capable of killing a group of shinobi due to the vast number of tiny scraps of metal that could cut and impale the opponent deeply within their body.

The great part about this technique is that any shuriken size could work such as a large shuriken or a windmill shuriken which would make the technique an even stronger one, with greater range and power. Their are only two drawbacks from what looks to be a simple technique. One drawback is that it cost quite a fair amount of chakra to cause the explosion power required for such a high rank technique. The second drawback was that he himself could get caught in the blast as well, injurying himself or any nearby ally. He knew that he had to be careful whenever he performed this technique, especially when working with others or in a crowded area.

Then after giving the technique a lot of thought and time, Arashi reached into his pouch and withdrew a shuriken in his hand, he accidently cut his index finger while he reached and gripped the shuriken from his pouch. After withdrawing a shuriken in his right hand, he placed it in his left hand as he licked the blood off his index finger, as he accidently push pressure on the shuriken's point which manage to point and cut his finger a little bit. Nonetheless, he slowly began to pour and imbue his chakra within the small shuriken. Imbueing his chakra into the silver, metal weapon in which he held between his thumb and index finger, he knew it would take quite a bit of chakra to cause the metal to expand enough to cause an explode after the seal is formed.

The chakra that the small shuriken required was an enourmous amount for such a small, simple looking shuriken, as he didnt care much because the damage that a small shuriken could cause with this technique is worth all the sweat and tears that it could come with its training progress. He knew that it required enough chakra for its explosion. Without enough chakra, the shuriken would be a waste and would result in a small and ineffective shuriken, as well as a waste of chakra. Continueing to pour and pump his chakra into the shuriken which was gripped between hios thumb and index finger, it required quite a bit of chakra since he wasnt sure how much chakra is exactly required and he had to be careful so it wouldnt accidentlly explode on his grip.

As he continued to pour his chakra into the shuriken, it was his first time pouring a large amount of chakra into such a small weapon of this size. Continueing to pour his chakra into the small shuriken, he suddenly felt a wierd and strange sensation as he looked down at the silver, shuriken in his hand as it shined as a ray of light reflected of its metal layers. Looking down at the shuriken, the shuriken suddenly developed a large splinter and crack within the center of the shuriken, as all the pressurized chakra being poured within it manage to actually cause the shuriken to break into tiny pieces. Suddenly, the shuriken began to fall apart in his gasp, as its metal points suddenly fell off as the shuriken fell into pieces on the ground in front of him. "That was wierd as hell." Said Arashi Kazechuushin

He stopped as he began to think of what he had done wrong. Thinking to himself, he figured that he was pouring his chakra to fast into the small shuriken which the metal shuriken must of began to expand incorrectly and due to the chakra being pumped so quickly, it couldnt handle it, resulting it in breaking apart. He now knows that he has to be careful on how fast he pumps his chakra since he could accidently use to much chakra without him realizing it.

The shuriken was sent flying down onto the grassy floor due to the high amount of chakra pressurized into a tiny shuriken at an unstable, fast rate which caused the shuriken to break a part into pieces. As the shuriken landed on the break into little pieces, Arashi would slowly scan through his utility belt, searching for one shuriken for him to use to perform the technique one more time. As he reached into his utility belt, he had a grip of one shuriken within his reach.

gripping the shuriken in his hand, the sharp points of the metal, silver shuriken pointed and managed to cut three of his fingers. Withdrawing the shuriken out of his utility belt, he placed the shuriken in his left hand so he could wipe the blood off his right hand which he felt a sharp pain in his fingers. As he looked on and glared at his right hand, he once again licked the blood off his three fingers and he quickly grasped the shuriken between his fingers.

Grasping the shuriken within his right palm,, he shuffled the secondary weapon between his fingers, simply gazing at the metal shuriken shine in the rays of the sun. Shuffling the metal between his fingers as he the sharp but refine steel metal brushed and scrapped through his skin as he began to channel and pour his chakra into the metal, secondary weapon called a shuriken.

As he was pouring his chakra within the shuriken, his hand suddenly begun to shake slowly, almost twitching every so often. From other people's point of view, he simply looked like he was shuffling a shuriken between his knuckles, but he was actually transferring his chakra within the moving shuriken between his knuckles.

As he continued to pour and transfer his chakra into the shuriken while moving the secondary weapon in between his knuckles, he felt and came near to the point where his previous used shuriken had broke into tiny pieces. Just as the shuriken came near to its previous breaking point last time due to pressurized chakra being channeled at an overwhelming rate which made the shuriken unstable and couldn't withstand the chakra being forced into it, Arashi hoped that this time around that he had made some improvement from the last time and first time that he had performed the Ninpou: Bakuyaku Shuriken (Ninja Art: Explosive Shuriken).

Then suddenly he felt a weird sensation in his hand as he quickly looked over at the shuriken in between his knuckles. Looking at the shuriken in between his knuckles, he noticed and witnessed that the silver, metal, secondary weapon known-ed as a shuriken had developed a small crack in the center of the shuriken. As the small crack developed on the shuriken, one half of the shuriken fell onto the ground while the other half was still in Arashi's grasp.

"Damn, I lost another shuriken. At least this time only half of the shuriken broke into of the shuriken breaking into multiple tiny pieces. I guess I made a lot of improve with my chakra control this time around." Said Arashi Kazechuushin as he knew that he had token another step forward and just needed a few more to be successful and learn this powerful ninjutsu technique.

As he held half of the shuriken in his hand and the other was lay-ed in front of him on the ground, Arashi began to think on what he had done wrong. Analyzing everything he had done, he figured that he still hasn't gotten his chakra control correct, since he must have concentrated his chakra a little to fast. He just needed to concentrate and channel his chakra just a little bit slower for him to be success. Then he would just need to pressurize his chakra more so he could cause the shuriken to explode with enough power to surpass that of an exploding tag and kill an opponent with one hit.

As the shuriken was torn into two separate pieces of scrap metal, the two now scrap metal swiftly fell down onto the grassy terrain of the Land of Waves. As the shuriken was split into two separate pieces, it fell apart because he figured that he must of concentrated his chakra a little to fast this time, which caused the shuriken to overload and lost control of the chakra. He would also need to produce more concentrated and pressurized chakra more into the shuriken which would allow him to cause the shuriken to explode with great power.

Nonetheless after he figured and planned out what he had done wrong and what he would need to do to be successful, he reached into his utility belt and scanned for another shuriken for him to use to perform the technique on once again this time, hopefully with greater results. As he reached into his utility belt, he had a grip of one shuriken within his reach within his fingertips. As he touched the shuriken with his fingertips, brushing his skin on the sharp refined metal.

Arashi gripped the shuriken in his hand this time, being more careful not to cut himself like the previous few times already. As he looked at the cuts on his hand from the two previous cuts on his fingers as they remained opened just a little bit, he simply shrugged it off as he went back to work. Grasping the shuriken in his right hand which is his dominate hand, he shuffled the secondary weapon known-ed as a shuriken between his knuckles as he simply glared at it with his bright eyes.

As he gazed on at the metal, silver shuriken, the rays of the sun continued to beam down and shine upon the metal, reflecting and slightly blinding him for a brief moment which took him from surprise. Shuffling the silver, refined metal shuriken between his knuckles, he began to slowly but steadily pour a concentrated but steady amount of chakra into the small silver, refined metal shuriken being shuffled in his grasp. His hand would continued to switch from the constant, steady amount of concentrated chakra being poured within the refined metal shuriken being shuffled between his knuckles.

Continuing to pour a concentrated but steady amount of chakra within the shuriken while moving the secondary weapon in between his knuckles, he felt and came near to the point where the previous shuriken had somehow managed to split into two separate pieces of what now is scrap metal. As the shuriken came near to the previous breaking point of the last shuriken he had used, due to pressurized chakra being channeled a little to fast and the chakra wasn't concentrated well enough for an explosion to erupt within the shuriken.

Arashi hoped that this time that he had made some improvements from his previous attempts in performing the Ninpou: Bakuyaku Shuriken (Ninja Art: Explosive Shuriken). A strange sensation emerged over Arashi Kazechuushin's body as he felt strange similar to the last few attempts. He thought that he had mastered the speed of chakra being channeled within the shuriken. But without him realizing it, he had the right amount of chakra speed correct, he just didn't concentrated his chakra properly.

Nonetheless as he looked down at the silver, refined shuriken between his knuckles, the shuriken began to shake and vibrate as if something was gonna emerged out of it. Wanting to make sure he wont be injured, he threw the shuriken seconds after it began to vibrate. Then for more insurance, he quickly went into his Kazeotokooya Megumi form, which he instantly turned into his ghost-like form which made him intangible for the mean time. A brief moment later after throwing the shuriken away and turning into his ghost-form, the small but refined silver shuriken had released and exploded as it neared a tree such a few feet from his current location and position.

Throwing the shuriken, he had just managed to avoid the explosion as the explosion had burned off and done some damaged to the tree. The scraps of metal had dug in a few inches within the tree as well as soared directly through Arashi's body, landing on the ground behind him. Wanting to preserve his chakra, he canceled his Kazeotokooya Megumi form as he stood there, examining the small explosion. He knew that the explosion was small but it could have still killed him if he hadn't gone into his ghost-form. front of him on the ground, Arashi began to think on what he had done wrong.

Analyzing everything he had done, he figured that hadn't concentrated his chakra right which cause the shuriken to pre-explosion as well as result in a small explosion. He would need to concentrate his chakra better for him to form the seal to explosion when he wanted it to as well as erupt in a large, grander explosion to do more damage then it had done here. This would be the hard part in his training to learn the Ninpou: Bakuyaku Shuriken (Ninja Art: Explosive Shuriken).

As Arashi canceled his Kazeotokooya Megumi form returning back to his normal form, he finished analyzing what he had done wrong. After figuring out that he would need to concentrate and control his chakra better, which would allow him to take control of the explosion detonation and the explosion power itself, to increase its deadliness to that of an A-Rank force. Nonetheless, he knew that his training wasn't anywhere near finish or even close of being finished.

He quickly reached into his utility belt and searched for another shuriken to use, possibly yet another shuriken. After scanning and locating yet another perfectly good shuriken, he gripped the shuriken with his thumb, index, and middle finger as he slowly raised it out of his pouch of secondary weapons on his right thigh. As he touched the shuriken with his fingertips, brushing his skin on the sharp refined metal, the perfectly good secondary weapon slightly cut his finger while raising it out of his pouch. Flinching on the slightest pain, Arashi placed the shuriken in his left hand as he mumbled to himself, cursing the shuriken for its sharpness and causing himself pain.

After cursing the shuriken, Arashi licked the blood off his index finger once again which now had an 'X' design small cut on the tip of his index finger, opening the old cut wide open. Ignoring the pain, Arashi gripped the shuriken in his right hand once again as he slightly threw it in the air as if it was a coin. Flipping the shuriken in the air, he caught the shuriken and closed his eyes. After closing his eyes, he figured that he should begin his mental chakra control training on this technique, the Ninpou: Bakuyaku Shuriken (Ninja Art: Explosive Shuriken).

After closing his eyes, he began to imagine a white canvas with a black hole in the very center of his mind. After imagining a white canvas with a hole in the center, Arashi then began to imagine his chakra swirling around the hole as it entered the black-hole in the center. This would simply symbolize him concentrating and pressurizing his chakra as he would simultaneously hold the shuriken within his thumb and index finger. He remained perfectly motionless as he kept his eyes closed throughout the entire time.

As he kept his eyes closed and continued to focus on pressurizing his chakra and concentrating it more, his chakra could be visibility seen-ed being focused around his hand, gripping his silver, refined, secondary shuriken. His chakra would become more fierce and would dance more wildly in his right hand as he continued to pump more chakra into his secondary weapon known-ed as a shuriken. Meanwhile as more chakra continued to be pumped, he continued to imagine a whole being filled with his chakra.

After a few minutes of gathering and pumping a large amount of chakra into the shuriken, Arashi's hand began to shake and vibrate with more intensity then his previous attempts. While his hand began to shake with more intensity, he knew that he would need to take a break after this attempt since he has been pumping away his chakra like butter. His hand continued to shake as he came near to its point of fullness of chakra, as well as the fact that he is almost out of chakra and would need to take a long break before continuing.

Nonetheless after a brief moment, Arashi's hand stopped shaking and now, the shuriken itself began to shake and vibrate within his grip. Simply watching the shuriken shake rapidly, he stopped channeling and concentrating his chakra within the shuriken. Continuing to watch for a brief moment, his eyes widen as he noticed that all his concentrated chakra was seeping out of the shuriken. Then suddenly at all in once rush, all of his chakra suddenly busted out of the tiny shuriken.

Watching what had just happen, he fell back on his ass, as he was in shocked that all of his chakra was wasted in one quick shot. After another moment, he controlled himself as he began to analyze what he had done wrong. He figured that he had lost control of his chakra and his chakra concentration was weak and the two combination caused all his chakra to burst out of the shuriken.

After analyzing everything that he had done and what he believes that he had messed up on which was that he lost control of his chakra and his chakra concentration was to weak which the two combinations caused all the stored up chakra to leak out of the shuriken. Nonetheless, Arashi held the shuriken in his grip as he prepared himself to perform the technique once again. Before performing the technique, he lifted and raised his arms toward his mouth and placed the shuriken between his teeth as he gripped it so it wouldn't fall off.

Then he would crack his knuckles to loosen his fingers so he would perform the technique and seals if he can. A brief moment later, Arashi extended his arm and grabbed the shuriken being gripped and held the secondary weapon between his teeth and held it within his palm. After grabbing the shuriken, he lay-ed the shuriken in his palm perfectly motionless and flat as he wanted to perform and train this technique once again so he could master it before the chuunin exams. Wanting to start training once again, Arashi closed his eyes as he prepared his mind and body to channel his chakra onto the shuriken.

Starting from his central core as Arashi kept his eyes closed, he slowly began to channel a large portion of chakra slowly from his central core and channel it throughout his body. Then he would slowly channel his chakra upward toward his shoulders as he aimed for his hands to start the transferring part of this training session. After channeling his concentrated chakra upward toward his shoulders, Arashi then begun to channel the shoulder through his right arm as he felt a surge of warm, intense energy flowing throughout his body.

Moments later as his continued to channel the flowing energy throughout his body, the concentrated chakra was being focused and channeled upward throughout his right arm as it neared his hand and fingers. Slowly as he continued to feel his chakra being channeled and continued to surge with energy, his chakra finally reached his fingertips. Quickly, Arashi grabbed the shuriken with his left hand and placed the small secondary weapon known-ed the shuriken within his right hand fingertips, placing the shuriken between his thumb, index, and middle finger as they quickly gained a grasp on it.

Then as the shuriken was positioned between his fingertips, Arashi continued to channel his chakra from his right hand as it was flowing and being channeled from his fingertips onto the shuriken. Arashi's fingertips began to glow a light blue as he could actually see his intense, concentrated chakra being channeled from his body onto the secondary weapon. Nonetheless as a large portion of his chakra was being channeled onto the shuriken, he knew that he had to mentally train as well. Starting his mental training, Arashi began to imagine once again an all white canvas with a black hole in the dead center of his mind.

The black hole was small, so he would need to channel his chakra swirling around similar to a vortex into the hole without any chakra bursting away or overflowing. Within seconds, he already begun imagining his chakra swirling around in a steady, controled space of mind onto and within the black hole. Slow and steady, he continued this mental progress of his chakra control version of training as he simultaneously continued his physical portion of the training progress. Going back onto the physical portion, the shuriken would soon near the bursting point of the previous attempt as he could feel his shuriken being almost full with concentrated, intense chakra within a small, refined shuriken.

Then a surprising quick minute later after keeping his eyes closed, he quickly passed the bursting point as all of his chakra remained within the shuriken. Then Arashi Kazechuushin would quickly enter his wind form as he prepared himself for the worst. Then going back into his mental training, Arashi would now struggle with his control of his chakra as he had trouble controlling such intense and large amount of chakra within such a small space of refined metal known-ed as the shuriken.

Mentally, he would have trouble focusing and maintaining control as the swirling chakra would have a small surge of chakra bursting from the side as the now swirling chakra turned into a swigging snake attempting to cram itself into such a small black hole. Physically, the secondary weapon known-ed as the shuriken was sent flying in the air as it suddenly exploded with a medium amount of power. The power was much greater then all of his previous attempts but his control was quite bad. Arashi would need to work on his control and concentrate his chakra from intense to incredibly powerful to cause it to explode with a large amount of power.

As the secondary weapon known-ed as a shuriken was sent flying and soaring in the air so swiftly and gracefully as the sun's strong rays would reflect off the silver, polished metal of the shuriken. Soaring through the air so gracefully and swiftly with such speed, the suddenly suddenly exploded as a burst of heat and light would be sent flying outward as the explosion echoed through the lands of the Waves.

The explosion echoed throughout the land as hundreds of tiny scraps of metal from the secondary weapon known-ed as a shuriken was sent flying and soaring outward along with the heat and light. The tiny scraps of metal soared through the air as it flue and extended for up to five meters in radius in all directions as the tiny, deadly scraps of metal even flue through Arashi's body as it landed on the ground below. Then as the explosion lessened and ceased, Arashi exited out his wind form as he looked and noticed that the surrounding grass was completely burned and torched by the intense heat and light from the explosion.

As well as the tiny scraps of metal piercing through the earth several inches and on the surrounding rocks in the area. Nonetheless, Arashi wanted to continue working on the technique since he figures that he is now half-way through the Ninpou: Bakuyaku Shuriken (Ninja Art: Explosive Shuriken) technique, which is a powerful A-Rank ninjutsu technique, which he would use as one of his secret techniques in the upcoming chuunin exams. Wanting to work and train some more, Arashi reached into his pouch as he wanted to grab and use yet another shuriken to perform the technique with and on.

After reaching for the shuriken in his pouch, he accidentally cut the very tip of his finger as he had reached for the shuriken too quickly and without thinking about the sharpness and placement of the shuriken in his pouch. After poking his finger, Arashi finally had a grip of the shuriken between his fingers as he pulled the shuriken out carefully so he wouldn't cut himself again. Then after pulling out the shuriken and holding it within his hands, Arashi now wanted to work on both the physical and mental part of the training simultaneously so he could progress faster and have even greater results at the end of this session.

Starting from his inner chakra from his central core, Arashi began to channel and concentrate his chakra from his central core out throughout his body as he could feel his energy flowing upward toward his shoulders. He could then feel his energy as he continued to channel his concentrated chakra throughout his body as his energy began to flow through his right arm, aiming to reach his hands and into the shuriken. Focusing and concentrating his chakra even more, he channeled his concentrated chakra upward through his arm as his chakra finally reached his fingertips.

Just as his chakra reached his fingertips, he held the shuriken between his knuckles as his flowing energy was slowly but steadily concentrated into his silver, refined metal, secondary weapon known-ed as a shuriken which is a common weapon for a shinobi. His chakra was even more intense then his previous attempt, as his chakra began to visibly been seen as his chakra glowed and dance fiercely around his hand as he held and grasp the shuriken with a firm and powerful grip in his hand. Mentally, he had already begun imagining a white canvas within his mind with an even smaller black hole in the center.

With a small black hole in the center, Arash imagine and focused his chakra swirling around as it would steady and swiftly enter the black space in an organized and swift manner. Physically, he kept his eyes closed as he came near the the finishing point for him to throw the shuriken toward a nearby tree to determine the power and control of the explosion and to work on his timing. A brief moment later; Arashi felt as if the shuriken had filled and went into its maximum amount of chakra, he just need to work on the power and control that high power so he wouldn't be hurt from a pre-explosion or an extended explosion.

As the shuriken was filled with his concentrated chakra, Arashi took exactly six meters away from a tree as he prepared himself to throw the shuriken at the tree. Gripping the shuriken firmly in his hand, he threw the shuriken with one swift motion as it quickly neared and approached the tree. Just only a few inches away from the tree, the shuriken went out of control and pre-exploded as an intense burst of heat and light flue in the air and went out of control as all of its tiny scrap metal pierced and entered the tree without him even wanting to explode the shuriken. He had to control the power of the explosion and the chakra so it wouldn't pre-explode or have an accidental extended time frame explosion. He would also need to memorize the hand seals so he could finally control the frame of the explosion overall.

Arashi Kazechuushin, a genin of the snow village, had been practicing for what seem like hours on the same technique. It was a powerful one though. One he hope to use as a secret weapon in the up coming chuunin exams. His last attempt at mastering the technique had once again ended in a failure. He was breathing heavily as he noticed from all the chakra use that he has to finish this technique soon. Looking up toward the sky, he noticed it was well past mid-day. He allowed himself to take a little break, so his chakra could replenish itself. He walked underneath a near by tree, to keep him out of the sun, and give him some cool shade to relax and get comfortable.

As he sat under the tree, he laid his head back against the bark of the tree and closed his eyes only for a moment. He heart was pounding from all the hard work he had managed to put into learning this technique. It was hard to believe how much time had passed since he started the technique. As he laid against the tree, he opened his eyes once again and looked around at the surrounding area. Most of the grass in the immediate area had all been burnt, or affected in some way. Shurikens also littered the surrounding area. Still, it seemed for as much work as he had put into the technique, he still had so much to go.

He grabbed his bag and pulled out some dry food and begin to munch on it as he thought where he should go from here. He could only do the same thing over and over before it is no more useful. Though he had manage to increase his chakra control a great deal today. Looking down at the food, he wrapped it back up and would saved what was ever left for later. He figured since he was still resting, he would begin learning the hand seals for the technique. He looked around until he had found the scroll he had borrowed from the library and began to look it over, looking for the correct hand seals he would need to do.

He was surprised at how simple they were. For a technique so powerful, he was expecting it to have a bunch of hand seals, or some complicated movement. However, it was three, very simple hand seals. Dog, Boar, Ram. He stared at the scroll for a couple of minuted before he looked away. Looking back at the scroll, he re-read everything it had to say on the technique, looking for any kind of mistake. Seeing if there were anything else about the hand seals. But no matter how hard he looked, it was just the three seals. Dog, Boar, Ram.

He shrugged to himself as he performed the three hand seals again. He did the hand seals several times before he stopped, as he attempted to memorized the seals by heart. With such an easy bunch of seals, he did not see how he would forget them so easy. He felt a gust of wind suddenly come through the area. He stopped what he was doing and closed his eyes feeling the wind. It was amazing. With his body covered in sweat from all the work, the wind felt cool and refreshing. It was a very beautiful day he thought as it was a day worthy of just sitting here and relaxing.

No matter how much he just wanted to sit and relax, he knew he could not do that. He had to get back to work working on the technique before the chunin exams began. He would have no time to be able to learn it then. He quickly did the hand seals a couple more times before he decided he had done enough. Dog, Boar Ram. Easy enough to remember or he hoped so. Other wise he could be in some trouble later on down the road if he doesn't memorize these three simple hand seals. He knew that if he forgot, he would be in trouble since this would be his new secret weapon in future battles.

With the hand seals finally memorized after such a short time, and the day quickly growing darker, Arashi Kazechuushin stood up slowly as he looked out from his shaded spot under the tree. He knew that he had to get back to work now before the day was over. It was only that saying it was much easier then actually doing it. He slowly began to walk out from under neath the tree toward where he had been before in his last position. His utility belt felt much lighter then it had before he started doing all the training. He reached slowly into the belt, not wanting to put any more cuts on his already cut up hand, he felt a tiny poke, letting him know he had reached the first shuriken.

Pulling the secondary weapon known as a shuriken out of the pouch, he held it in his palm looking over the shiny, silver, refined metal. Closing his eyes, he began to slowly pump his concentrated chakra into the small secondary weapon in his grip. He felt a warm sensation racing down his his right arm. He could feel the secondary weapon start to vibrate a little as he pumped more and more of his concentrated and focused chakra into the weapon. Remembering from all of his previous attempts, he knew that his secondary weapon was nearing its limit and was getting ready to explode. Arashi's eyes opened wide and had tossed the secondary weapon knowned as a shuriken out into the air before it could explode and possibly injure himself in the process. He did not even have time to do the hand seals for the technique. Quickly, he went straight into his ghost-like form.

The secondary weapon knowned a small shuriken was several inches from the tree he had just spent his time resting and relaxing, as he threw the shuriken at the tree before it exploded. The power of the blast was getting stronger and stronger everytime he would perform this technique. He exited and deactivated his ghost form and looked at the ground. Layered with pieces of what use to be a shuriken. Now its nothing more then metal pieces, sharp enough to cut open some poor unsuspecting citizen or possibly shinobi's foot. He reached into his pouch again, just like all of his previous times, very slowly as to not cut up his hand any worse then what it was, he pulled out another secondary weapon knowned as a shuriken. He was going to try the technique again. He had to pay more attention and he had to concentrate more or else he would lose focus and lose control of his chakra.

Had he not realized what was about to happen, that could have very well ended him. It would be embarrassing for any shinobi like himself to be killed like that. Shaking his head, he was not going to win the Chunin exams behaving like that. He had to be sharp and alert, he had to be ready for anything that was about to happen at any moment in time. Holding his secondary weapon known as a shuriken firmly in his hand, he closed his eyes and begin to pour his chakra into the small weapon. The Weapon laid motionless in his hand for a brief moment. As more and more chakra left his body and entered the weapon in his hand, he could feel the vibration on his hand as the shuriken had already begun shaking and twitching. He knew already knew what was about to happen as he believed that this vibration in the shuriken was a signal for the shinobi training and performing this technique, which a low-weak shinobi wouldnt have notice the signs that the shuriken was giving.

Spreading his legs apart, he faced the tree in front of him and threw the shuriken in the air. The shuriken flew perfectly in a straight angle, with enough speed and force behind it all. Arashi quickly did the three hand seals that was required for the technique, then he went into his ghost-like state. He could not have been any luckier. The moment he entered this state, the weapon hit the tree and exploded. It was bigger then what he was expecting it to be. The fragments from the weapon also shattered everywhere. Some of them even had a faint reddish glow to them. He could only suspect those pieces were extremely hot.

Arashi Kazechuushin exited his ghost-like form and looked around. He moved, carefully trying not to step on any of the burning hot scrap of metal that now layered the field of grass. He bent down and inspected the tree which had been hit from the small weapon known as the shuriken. He slowly rubbed his hand over the point of the blast. It had carved out a nice little section in the tree. As he did this, he could feel the metal scraps that had lodged itself into the tree. He cracked a small smile as he observed the tree.

A few more times and this tree has had it. He thought slowly to himself. He stood back up straight, once again careful not to cut his foot open from the metal pieces that layered the ground. With a now successful attempt at the technique, he was fired up and ready to go now. A few more tries and he should have this technique down, no sweat. He could do this. Taking a deep breath, he looked at the tree in front of him. This was his moment to shine. He was going to show the world who he was.

He quickly reached into his his utility belt and pulled out another shuriken. He could feel a cut form on his finger once again. He had been to quick to grab the weapon. Never the less, the cut was not going to slow him down. He quickly aimed, closed his eyes and prepared to throw the weapon at the tree. He took in a deep breath of air as he started to infuse his chakra with the weapon.

He could feel a warm feeling rushing down his right arm. It rushed from the center of his body, right into the right hand and straight into the weapon. As his arm was still moving, he could feel the weapon beginning to vibrate in his hand. “Yes!” He said to himself a pond release of the weapon. The Shuriken flew straight and true until it would hit the tree right in front of him. Just as he had done every time before, he turned into his ghost form, using his bloodline ability, and watched as the tree exploded.

A ball of fire would seem to suddenly form at the tree as a loud, thunder sound exploded into existence. Fragments of tiny metal pieces could be heard hitting the ground, and everything else around him. He noticed the fragments were a bit smaller this time then what they were the last time he performed the technique. As the technique was finally over, he returned back to his normal self. He watched as a drop of sweat fell from his face and landed on one of the shuriken pieces.

He watched as a small stream of steam would come off the tiny fragment. He laughed a little. That would hurt anyone. He could not imagine to have a tiny piece of metal, hot enough to burn metal, lodged into his skin. The pain just had to be unimaginable. Standing back up, he looked back up at the tree. One more hit and that thing was coming down. This last shot had to count.

The technique was slowly becoming better. He had made a huge advancement in the training recently. Arashi Kazechuushin, a Genin of the snow village was getting ready to wrap this training session up once in for all. Holding his right middle finger up to his mouth, he sucked on it a little to wipe up the blood that had been forming up and leaking from the small wound. The taste of blood had become an overwhelming taste in his mouth. Spitting it out, he looked back up at the tree.

He, for a brief moment envisioned a deadly enemy in front of him. He himself, he envisioned as a wolf anbu member. The entire village needed his help. He was the only one who could stop the invader, the deadly enemy. A cocky grinned formed on his face as he quickly went for another shuriken. Though he was careful not to cut him, this time around. As he grabbed onto it, he instantly began to channel his chakra into his weapon. He once again felt the familiar sensation of his chakra flowing out of his body.

His chakra flowed out of his body, and right into the weapon. It would not be long before he could feel the familiar vibrations coming off the weapons. He knew if he held onto it any longer, it would explode in his hand. Something he did not particularly happen while the weapon still rested in his hand. He pulled back his right arm, and threw the weapon forward and began the three hand seals required for the technique. “dog, boar, ram” he muttered to himself as he did the hand seals.

Not longer after this action, he would turn himself into his ghost like form and watch the weapon hit and explode as it impacted the tree. A large enough explosion happened for Arashi to reflectively turn his head from the sudden blast of light. It was now stronger then it had ever been. Arashi had finally mastered the technique. And not a moment to soon. As he turned back into his normal self, he could feel the strain from all the training start to over come him.

He cracked a little smile, while he breathed heavily. The tree that had provided him shade, no longer stood. It had been blown over. The ground had been layered with hot, sharp metal objects. Even if he could sit down, he did not want to. He might find himself trying to pull out a super hot piece of metal out of his butt. An experience he wanted to avoid.

As Arashi finally finished learning an A-Rank technique, he looked around and noticed that the entire ground around the area is littered in hot metal. Breathing heavily, he began to walk for several minutes as he wanted to find a new area to train and learn more ninjutsu, as he wanted to focus more on his wind-natured chakra. After a few minutes, he arrived at a new, cleaner terrain as he stood surrounded by trees.

Standing several feet in front of a large tree, he stood there as he pulled out a book filled with C-Rank wind and water-release techniques that he borrowed from the local library back in the Snow Village. Strolling and scanning through the book, he stopped and looked at a page that had the technique known as 'Futon: Bukisuraisu'. This technique allows the user to use their hand or weapon to slash the air in front of them to create a sickle-shaped gust of wind outward at incredible speed and power enough to inflict moderate amount of damage and chop down trees.

This technique had enough power to cut through rock when used with enough force. The sickle-shaped gust of wind can repel weapons and even sound waves which is quite a bonus when it comes to wind-release. Nonetheless, after reading over the entire description on how to perform the technique, he was quite glad that this technique didn't required him to perform any hand seals. Working on the technique, Arashi stood in the middle of the field while standing in front of a tree to perform and practice the technique on.

Standing in front of the tree, Arashi quickly begun to gather chakra to his arms as he could feel his body surging with flowing chakra all throughout his body. Feeling his chakra flowing all throughout his body, being focused and concentrated slowly toward his arms. He could feel his arms being filled with concentrated chakra, as he then closed his eyes to help concentrate more. Remaining in his stationary position, he was motionless as he continued to focus and concentrate his chakra to his arms.

A brief moment later after concentrating a burst of chakra to his arms, Arashi raised his arms and opened his eyes. After raising his arms, Arashi swung his arms in a diagonal motion in front of him, as a small sickle-shaped gust of wind was released from his arms at an average rate of speed. Being released and sent launching toward the tree, the sickle-shaped gust of wind soon after connected with the tree. Just as it connected with the tree, it dissipated upon impact.

As the sickle-shaped gust of wind connected and soon after dissipated, Arashi walked over toward the tree to examine the damage that it might had inflicted. Upon examination, Arashi saw a small cut on the tree, as he wasn't to impress with the results. Then he walked back to his original position as he prepared himself to perform the technique once again. Quickly, Arashi closed his eyes and began to concentrate his chakra to his right arm more intensely. Focusing and concentrating his chakra, he hoped to get better results with this performance.

Even quicker then the first time, Arashi finished concentrating his chakra to his arm as he swung his right arm in a diagonal-motion. Swinging his arm in a diagonal-motion, he released a burst of sickle-shaped gust of wind that seemed to be slightly larger then the first one. Releasing the gust of wind, it traveled at speeds a little over average as it soon after connected with the same tree as before. Upon impact and dissipating, he walked over to examine the damage he inflict on the tree. Upon examination, the tree had an even larger cut within the tree, as the cut was just above the first mark he previously just left.

Upon examining the tree, he was even more impress then the first time as he turned around and walked back to his previous and original position. Standing in the middle of the field of trees, Arashi stood there as he closed his eyes once again. After closing his eyes, Arashi raised his right arm and began to concentrate and channel his chakra from his central core outward, aiming to reach his arm. Channeling his chakra, he continued to focus his concentrated chakra to his arm as he hoped to have an even deeper cut into the tree as well as to make the sickle-shaped gust of wind to travel at an incredible speed.

He knew that the speed of the attack is the main purpose because without speed, the sickle wouldn't be able to inflict moderate amount of damage upon an opponent and even cut down a tree. Nonetheless, Arashi continued to concentrated his chakra more, attempting to supply and use a larger amount of chakra to increase the sickle, speed, and power within the sickle-shaped gust of wind. A brief moment later, Arashi quickly swung his arm as he released a slightly larger sickle-shaped gust of wind as it traveled at an slightly faster rate of speed.

Connecting and impacting the tree even faster then before, he had a small crashing sound as he ran over to examine the results. Upon examination, he noticed that he had manage to deliver a cut that manage to go through half-way through the tree. Due to the many cuts, the tree slowly begun to sway as it soon after crashed onto the ground of the Waves country. Nonetheless, he turned to face another tree as he stood directly in front of the tree. Standing at a stationary position, he closed his eyes and he quickly begun to channel and focus his chakra to his right arm once again.

Channeling his chakra at a faster rate, he quickly filled his arm with an even larger amount of chakra then all of his previous attempts. Raising his arm, he opened his eyes as he first aimed for the tree ahead. Aiming the tree, Arashi released the sickle-shaped gust of wind out as it managed to travel at an incredible burst of speed. Traveling at an incredible burst of speed, it almost instantly connected with the tree ahead as it actually cut straight through the tree in a diagonal angle, as the tree soon after fell and crashed against the ground.
