Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 145: Plans for the Future

Fujin went straight to his home after leaving. While moving, he thought, 'What a crazy mission. Never thought I'd run into Kakazu so early. I'm not ready to face Akatsuki. It's doubtful that I'd be anytime soon. Sigh, this world is so dangerous. I need to increase the intensity of my training. And I need better ways of escaping. I am not sure if Wind Instantaneous Body jutsu would be sufficient.'

After reaching his house, Fujin jumped into his bed. He was mentally exhausted from the encounter and physically exhausted due to running non-stop for hundreds of kilometers. He fell asleep.

He slept till late afternoon. After waking up, he thought, 'So what to do now?'

He thought for a bit and said, 'I will have to calculate a lot! Let me fill my stomach first.'

He went out for lunch and returned in the evening. Before returning, he went to the Hokage's building and booked the training ground 23 for himself for the next few months. After returning home, he grabbed a book and a pen and sat on his bed. He sat in a meditative pose and began analyzing.

After a while, he opened his eyes. He concluded, 'Konoha is notoriously famous for being very strict with Jounin promotions. It's safe to say that I won't become a Jounin for at least three years. Likely more.

So I won't get any access to any A Rank wind jutsus for a long time. And I already have learnt the good B rank wind jutsus. So once I master those B rank wind jutsus, I can work on diversifying my skill set.

Problem is that there are way too many things that I want to learn. Right now, the most important thing is mastering Air Bullet Jutsu and Vacuum Bullet jutsus. I need to be able to perform them without any hand signs.

I also need to learn to shoot multiple Vacuum bullets. But, from what Hiruzen said, I'll need quite some time before I'll be able to do it. He said that it will come naturally to me after performing a crazy number of Vacuum bullet jutsus. But, he didn't say how many times I'd need to practice it. I will make a decision on this after learning to use it without any hand signs.

Next, I'll need to learn the B rank wind jutsus and perform them without hand signs as well.

The next two important aspects are learning the Lightning element and learning Fuinjutsu. I am not sure how easy or difficult the lightning element will be. Especially since I have to keep it a secret.

As for Fuinjutsu, that should be easy. I can spam shadow clones for learning Fuinjutsu. But I won't be able to practice it alongside ninjutsu training. The best time to learn Fuinjutsu will be when I am learning Lightning manipulation. But, it will have to stop when I start learning Lightning jutsus. Hmm, I'll make the decision when the time comes.

After Lightning and Fuinjutsu, I will try those ideas I have for Wind jutsus. But, I am afraid that some of those applications of wind chakra could injure me if I don't control it perfectly. So I will need to learn Mystical palm before it.

My chakra control is very good, so learning Mystical Palm shouldn't be an issue.

Right now, the skills that I am happy with are the Senju Taijutsu style and Samurai Saber Technique. My Taijutsu and Swordsmanship are both excellent. Especially when paired with long-range Wind jutsus.

I would like to raise my Senju Taijutsu to Tsunade's way of fighting. But, it won't be easy. I had been trying it while training with Renjiro without a hint of success.

Also, before I try to learn more ninjutsus, I have to sort out my current jutsus. I have learnt quite a lot of jutsus. But I don't use a few of them. First, I have to decide which jutsus I want to keep using. Then I will have to perfect them.

That leaves just Genjutsu… I haven't focused on Genjutsu much. My focus has been more on Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Kenjutsu. I guess I should learn that genjutsu Tobirama had created to fight against the Uchiha. But for the rest, it's probably best to not even try.

After all, no matter how skillful I may become, it's impossible to match the Sharingan in genjutsu. I might as well just focus on countering Genjutsu.

I would also like to learn Juinjutsu, but I guess that will follow after Fuinjutsu. So that can wait.

I guess that's all for now. The only idea left is…'

Fujin extended his right forearm forward. He tightened his palm. Chakra appeared on his palm. It rotated at a high speed and began taking the form of a sphere. It was slightly unstable initially, but soon it maintained a proper sphere shape.

Fujin thought, 'I haven't practiced Rasengan at all for over a year. I could barely form it before I graduated. Now, I need to master this jutsu properly. From the time I graduated, my chakra reserves and control have improved many folds. So mastering Rasengan shouldn't be taxing now. I need to be able to use it in combat situations.'

He went back to his bed and began writing down all the jutsus that he had learnt so far!

Fujin saw the list and had just one thought, 'When the fuck did I learn 37 jutsus????'

He sighed and exclaimed, 'No wonder I felt the need to sort my jutsus! Sigh, this is so much work!'

He began analyzing all his jutsus and their utility. After what seemed like an epoch, Fujin was finally done!

He concluded his thoughts, 'Among 36 jutsus, only 3 jutsus are completely useless for me! Clone jutsu, Wind Torpedo jutsu and Earth Holding jutsu. Wind Clones are a much better option as compared to clone jutsu. As for Wind Torpedo jutsu, Vacuum Bullet jutsu does a much better job. As for Earth Holding jutsu, it is too slow to be useful for anything.

There are also some redundancies. Breakthrough, Great Breakthrough, and Infinite Breakthrough jutsus are just advanced forms of each other. In fact, aspects of both jutsus are covered in the Infinite Breakthrough jutsu. So, once I master the Infinite Breakthrough, I'll be able to increase its power by supercharging or decrease its power to Great Breakthrough or even Breakthrough by just controlling my chakra.

It is the same with Rock Shield and Earth Wall jutsus, and with Earth Military Movement and Earth Instantaneous Body jutsus.

Then, there are some very basic jutsus. Gale, Wind Retrieving, Projectile Control, Wind Levitation jutsu, Propelling Winds jutsu and Dust Cloud jutsus. Though these jutsus seem good, they don't work in a fast-paced battle. But, I have already mastered them. And I have a cool idea for them. So I'll set them aside for now.

Next are utility jutsus. These can provide some uses. Gale jutsu can be used to cover up footprints and smell. Earth Release Camp jutsu can be used to make a hideout. Mud Moat jutsu can be used to set up traps. These jutsus are handy, but I don't need to master them as I won't use them in battle.

Now, for the important part. That is combat. I will divide jutsus into 4 parts - Offense, Defense, Movement and Support.

For Defense, I have Earth Wall jutsu and Spinning Shield of Wind jutsu. Both are good and mastered. And I have some ideas to improve the Spinning Shield of Wind jutsu. And, I always have the option of escaping underground. This should be sufficient.

For Movement, I have Substitution jutsu, Body Flicker jutsu, Wind Instantaneous Body jutsu and Earth Instantaneous Body jutsu. All four have been mastered. I wonder if there would be any Lightning jutsu that promotes speed in the library. Anyways, this is good for now. The only ways that I know to improve this substantially are learning the Lightning Chakra Mode or Flying Thunder God.

For Support, I have Shadow Clone and Wind Clone jutsus. Both are good. Especially when combined with Shadow Clone Explosion jutsu. I also want to transform Wind Dragon jutsu and Gale Wind Wolf jutsu into support. Otherwise, they aren't very effective.

Lastly, Offense! I guess I can further divide Offense into close-range, mid-range and long-range.

For close-range offense… Well, that's a surprise! I only have Rasengan. Makes sense I suppose. My sword is plenty. And my Taijutsu is good as well. I guess I can improve this further by learning elemental Rasengan and maybe a jutsu like Chidori.

For mid-range offense, I have Wind Explosion jutsu, Wind Sword Jutsu, Infinite Breakthrough jutsu, Air Bullet jutsu, Vacuum Bullet jutsu and Vacuum Sphere jutsu.

Hmm… I should stop using Wind Explosion and Air Bullet as soon as I can. And instead, use Vacuum Sphere and Vacuum Bullet. Only with sufficient practice will I be able to reach a stage where Vacuum jutsus feel as natural as those jutsus.

I guess Genjutsu would come under mid-range offense as well. I need to try using these two jutsus during missions against enemy chunins and see how effective they are. Though, in the long run, they won't be very effective.

Lastly, long-range offense. All my support jutsus double up as long-range offense. Infinite Breakthrough and Vacuum Bullet jutsus also double up as long-range jutsus. Especially Vacuum Bullet which has a fearsome penetrating power.

Alright, this is it. That covers all my jutsus. I can form a battle system.

Senju Taijutsu style and Swordsmanship for close range.

Vacuum Bullet, Wind Sword, Vacuum Sphere, and Infinite Breakthrough for mid and long-range attacks.

Earth Wall and Spinning Shield of Wind for defense.

Wind and Shadow clones for support.

Body Flicker and Substitution for dodging.

Wind/Earth Instantaneous Body jutsus for escaping.

And my chakra field to sense or scout enemies.

The only aspects that are missing are Healing and maybe sealing. Once I learn Mystical Palm jutsu and a good seal, I should be a complete ninja who covers all aspects. Once this is done, I will pick one aspect and just focus on it till I reach among the top-tier ninjas in that aspect!'

Fujin's face became very determined. The determination to become strong could be seen in his eyes.

Fujin once again looked at the jutsus he had written and sighed, 'To think that just analyzing my current skills will get so complicated! That too when I have just focused on only one element. What a mess will this become if I master a few more elements and learn more jutsus!'

Fujin took one final look at the book. Suddenly, chakra appeared in his hands and covered the book. The book was shredded into tiny pieces!

Fujin used Wind Levitation jutsu to keep the small pieces afloat. He collected them and burned everything, leaving no signs of it.

With the jutsus analyzed, Fujin began thinking about Renjiro's words, 'So elements can be fused to create a Kekkei Genkai, huh? While I had thought, I really didn't think it'd be possible. But, should I try to create one?'

Fujin began thinking. After a while, he concluded, 'An elemental Kekkei Genkai is very helpful in distinguishing from other normal ninjas. If I were to master an elemental Kekkei Genkai at this very moment, I'll become strong enough to confront Veteran Jounins by myself. I might not win, but fighting equally and retreating would be very easy.

But, beyond this, an Elemental Kekkei Genkai isn't much help. At max, I can expect to reach the Elite Jounin level. But considering that it'll be a few years till I master two elements, I should already be close to that level. So an elemental Kekkei Genkai wouldn't be that useful.

Another question is that if I decide to create one, which Kekkei Genkai should I create? My top two elements are Wind and Lightning. That gives Swift Release. My third element is Fire. I am not sure what Fire and Lightning do together. Fire and Wind together should give Scorch Release.

Scorch Release is relatively good. The only known user was at S rank. So getting it could be a good help to reach that level. As for Swift Release, their bloodline was wiped out during the warring period. Though a few Swift Release users pop up, none have been famous. And there is barely any information in the library.

That said, Swift Release is a bit unidimensional. All it does is increase speed. And I am already very fast. The main question will be, does Swift Release amplify my max speed? Or would it just help me reach some default speed and be useless if I already exceed that speed?

If it's the latter, then it'll be a waste. But if it's the former, then it can be insanely good! If in the future I get my hands on the Raikage's Lightning chakra mode technique and combine it with Swift Release and my own speed and they all stack up, I'll easily be the fastest ninja ever. And there is no need to even think about how overpowered that speed would make me. Especially if I even add the Flying Thunder God to the mix.'

Suddenly, Fujin stopped thinking. A wry smile appeared on Fujin's face as he realized, 'I am dreaming needlessly. I don't know whether I'd manage to learn even one of those 3 skills let alone all 3! Not to mention, I have no whatsoever expertise in Fire or Lightning elements. I haven't learnt even a single jutsu of those two elements. And Renjiro said that even my Wind nature hasn't reached that level. So it's pointless to think or dream about this right now.'

After concluding his thoughts, Fujin decided, 'I'll rest for today. Tomorrow morning, my solo training begins!'
