Chapter 10: Annoying
Staying in the hospital was pretty boring.
If it were already Boruto-era I could play video games on a handheld to pass time.
Still, I could use the time to think things through.
First of all, not being able to use both hands to form signs is annoying...I didn't intend to use hand signs at first since I counted on my acceleration technique to carry me but that ended - let's just say trying to train that will make me the ultimate Deidara cosplayer...
I could still learn to use hand signs with one hand like Haku, but that will take a huge amount of effort that's why it is annoying.
When it comes to my failed experiment, I can say that the problem was my control: Some chakra went out of my fist as I intended, or else my whole arm would have been probably blown into pieces, while some rest chakra stayed in the fist and it got released there. Controlling chakra isn't already easy and if it's accelerated controlling it is really just too hard...
That means it has potential - BUT until I learn to control it fully I will probably be already on the other side just from training it.
I was conceited, I really should treat my body more carefully...
So after thinking I concluded that I should accelerate my chakra into objects instead, which will greatly reduce the risk to me.
But what would be a good object to use?
Well, I already thought of something...
After I woke up I only stayed a few days more in the hospital.
I got occasional visits from my mum and Tenten and even my dad.
When my dad visited me he was pretty calm and civilized, which wasn't really like him - seeing his bruises though I think it's obvious what happened...
Anyway now I want to leave my house but my mum is too worried...
"You know, after what happened you think I let you go train again?"
"But I don't intend to train, I just want to take a walk around the village."
"Actually I thought I should ground you as a punishment, but since you only go out to train it wouldn't be really a punishment...well, whatever, as long as you promise me that you don't go training it should be fine."
"Thanks..."
"Speaking like that isn't really like you...sorry, I know that you are still probably shocked...but you don't have to force yourself...we will love you the same even if you cant become a shinobi..."
"..."
Why do they all think not being able to use hand signs with both hands is such a big deal?
It's only annoying, nothing more...
Well, the injury does make me considerably worse in taijutsu though...
Anyway, you may ask why I suddenly decided to take a stroll?
It's because I'm searching for something - or rather someone.
Who am I searching for?
I also don't know...
The Jonin Standby Station...
It's the first time I have come here.
Here, the Jonin stay to await the Hokage's orders or when they are off duty.
I really hope I don't run into a main character like Kakashi here since I'm not mentally prepared right now and things would just get awkward.
There, two Jonin I don't recognize (thank god) stand outside as guards.
"Hey you brat, this building is only for Jonins."
"I know, I'm here cause I'm looking for someone"
"Who are you looking for?"
"Uhm, I want to know if there are any shinobis in Konoha who are proficient in kenjutsu..." [kenjutsu=swordsmanship]
"That's an odd question...why do you want to know?"
"Oh come on, you know how brats are, they all want to see us shinobis do some cool stuff...anyway we in Konoha don't have many kenjutsu-user...I know that in Kirigakure they have a lot..."
"Hmm, when it comes to Konoha, only Hayate comes into my mind..."
Hayate?
This name sounds familiar but I don't remember who that is...
"Could you tell me where I can find this Hayate?"
"Well, I think he should be inside right now..."
Inside the Jonin Standby Station:
"Hey Hayate someone is looking for you outside"
"koff...is it Yugao?"
"No someone else"
