Naruto: The Wind Calamity Chapter 88: Dodging Practice

Fujin entered the Dodging Practice training room. He noticed that there were multiple chanisms around the room to launch shurikens, kunai, and senbon needles. But all were made out of wood. And none were sharp. Fujin grinned, 'This should be exciting.'

He read the training manual for this room. It confird that all weapons were harmless.

Fujin walked to the center of the room. There was a pulling lever with one rod extending out here. To activate the chanism, first, the lever had to be moved. The degree to which the lever is moved would denote the percentage of chanisms that would be activated. Once the lever was pulled, a button had to be stepped on to launch the weapons. The manual stated that this can be done only 100 tis before the chanisms needed to be refilled. Fujin wondered, 'How many storage seals did they inscribe in this room?'

While wondering, he grinned and pulled the lever to the max. And then stepped on the button. Imdiately, all weapons ran down on him.

Shurikens rained on him from 7 different locations. He could see 5, while the other 2 locations were behind him. He still heard them being launched and moved to a spot where the shurikens won't hit him. As soon as he moved there, senbon needles rained on him. He managed to dodge most, but 5 still hit him.

One after another, for the next 2 minutes, weapons kept attacking him.

At the end of 2 minutes, it finally stopped. The entire floor was covered with blunt wooden weapons.

Fujin frowned, 'I was hit many tis. I lost count at 136! And I had to block 7 with my hands as they would have hit my eyes. Is it even possible to dodge them all? Or rather, at what level can you dodge them all?

Oh well, this ti lem try it while using other weapons to block them.' He picked up a few kunais and senbons and placed them in his pockets. He kept 3 kunais in each hand.

He then created winds, which cleared the floor and pushed all the wooden weapons to the wall. He pulled the lever once again and stepped on the button.

He dodged once again, only this ti when he couldn't dodge, he used his weapons to either block at the last mont, or throw it at incoming weapons. He was still hit quite a few tis.

He analyzed, 'Not bad. This ti, I was hit only 43 tis. Still a lot though.'

He then grabbed his swords, 'Alright, this ti let's check with my preferred weapons. But without flying slashed. Or this room might collapse.' He chuckled on imagining the scene where his flying slashes wreck the training room.

This ti, he was hit 82 tis, 'With my swords, I couldn't block at range. So all blocking was last minute. Which is why I got hit more tis. That said, had I used flying slashes, I might have never been hit.'

He sheathed his swords and gathered his chakra. Blue chakra could be seen flowing around him. He activated the test once again. The weapons were once again launched at him when wind waves began forming in the room. The winds began spinning around him at a high speed. They deflected all incoming weapons for 2 minutes straight.

Fujin grinned, 'Excellent. I guess I can call this Wind Style Rotation. Though its power isn't really strong. It probably wouldn't work if these weapons were made of tals and were heavier. Though, it makes sense. Basically, I just applied the chanics from rank E Wind jutsus like Wind Retrieval, Projectile Control, and Wind Levitation jutsus.

If I can add the Spinning shield of wind jutsu to this, and then manage to pour more chakra and make it spin faster while staying together and not harming , then this can beco a good defensive jutsu. Though it won't be an absolute defense.

He then looked at the ss around him and thought, 'Well, defending with ninjutsu or weapons is fine. But this training room was made for improving dodging. Let's focus on that for now.'

Fujin only turned the lever halfway before pressing the button. He kept practicing again and again.

He spent the next 4 hours in the dodging room. By the end, all 4 walls had huge stacks of wooden weapons piled. Fujin looked at it and thought, 'Rest in peace the fellow who is supposed to refill these.'

He left the room and went to the dining room to grab a bite, 'It's almost 5 PM. I hope they still give breakfast.'

After breakfast, he went into the Wind Elent Training room while wondering, 'Wind elent training in a closed room? I wonder how that works?' On entering the room, he saw that the room was rather empty. There was only a ditation mat at the center of the room.

He picked up the manual. It read -

This is the training room for Wind Elent. To train, sit on the mat at the center of the room, and ditate. The table on which this manual has been placed has a few boxes. Each box has 9 strips. The strips, from left to right, are made of - Leaf, Alder Wood, Soft Maple Wood, Hard Maple Wood, Aluminium, Copper, Steel, Titanium, and Diamond.

[A/N : I initially wondered whether all these types of tals would be available in Naruto. But considering the amounts of weapons they manufacture and the technological advancents, later on, it's kinda safe to say all should be available.]

The strips, from left to right, get progressively harder. You can test how strong your wind nature is by trying to cut them.

Fujin grabbed a box from the table and opened it. The strips were all 1 cm in thickness. He picked up the strips one by one and began cutting them with his wind chakra.

The Leaf, Alder wood, Soft and Hard Maple wood strips were cut. On the aluminum strip, Fujin managed to create a 3-milliter cut from either side. But couldn't go any deeper. Fujin put the aluminum strip as well as the cut strips back in the box and put it in his scroll. He then walked towards the mat, sat on it, and began ditating.
