Technique Training: 10/10
Ashi Tenma pulled himself out of the river, grabbing his nearby towel and shaking off the excess water. It had felt good to go swimming, and he didn't regret abandoning following that woman for a quick swim. It felt like he has washed some kind of...goo off of him after having smoked for the first time in years, and so the cool water was a blessed relief.
Ashi pulled his towel around his waist and started climbing back up the hill to the bridge crossing the river when he saw a couple of the Academy students arrive, their intentions apparent from the swimsuits and towels they carried. Ashi sighed, then sat down on the slope, watching the kids. He would have rather continued to chase "that woman" (his new term for the female he had seen smoking and stolen a technique from), but it was more important for him to play lifeguard to the little kids: if they got hurt, he would be held responsible, which was something he did NOT need right now.
Settling down and watching the kids play around, he noticed one of the kids off to the side, his face a mask of concentration. He would get this serious look on his face, then go underwater. Ashi started counting how long it took the kid to get back up, and it was...15 MINUTES? Ashi quickly panicked and jumped in, making sure the kid hadn't drowned.
*Oh god!* Ashi thought. *Don't be dead, don't be dead...* However, as soon as Ashi was submerged he saw a strange sight.
Rather than having drowned, the kid seemed to be fine. he looked like he was...counting to himself? Maybe the kid had been doing what Ashi was doing: timing how long it took for him to break the surface again. Ashi motioned upwards and the kid saw it. After a quick nod, the two of them broke the surface together.
The kid quickly lost the look on his face and took in a deep gasp of air, slowly headed back towards solid ground. He gasped a couple of times, then looked at Ashi.
"What do you want?" the kid asked, his voice curious.
"How did you do that?" Ashi asked, his voice deadly serious and filled with an almost threatening tone.
"What, the Suichuu? It is a chakra concentration technique. You just send the chakra to your mouth, eyes, ears, and lungs in order to stay underwater and see and move and breath freely." The kid took in another big gulp of air, his statement having been quickly explained in one breath. "The only drawback is that afterwards you have to rest for about half the time the technique is used."
The kid looks at Ashi and squints. "Are you REALLY a shinobi? I mean, that is an Academy level ability and-" the kid was suddenly interrupted by Ashi.
"Of course I am! I was just...testing you. Yeah, that's it. Now go do whatever you want." The kid ran off to tell the others about the weird and stupid genin, and Ashi let out a held breath. Wow; even HE felt like that excuse had been weak.
Ashi stayed after the kids left. He kept trying to do what the kid had described. Although he hated to admit it, the smoking had helped with learning this jutsu: because he knew about the lungs, that part was a cinch. He was satisfied with his mastering of the ability after about 1/2 an hour; although the kid may have called him stupid, Ashi had a tactically focused mind, and quickly understood things after seeing them performed once or twice.
Absolutely exhausted by the events of the day, Ashi arrived at his small apartment absolutely wiped out. He had learned 2 jutsus today! That must be a record- Ashi's thought was cut off as he fainted out of exhaustion onto his pallet, his mind drifting off to dreams of smoke and illusions.
