Recovery

I exit my mindscape still sorting the info dump I just underwent, and activate my thermal vision. Having heard a noise. I soon spot to my left about 20 ft away a rabbit in a Bush. It must way 25-35 lbs. It's the size of a medium sized dog. I calm my breathing as I slowly pivot to have a clean shot. Knocking an arrow I draw my bow tight releasing my breath as I loose the arrow. I feel the arrow as it travels towards the unsuspecting rabbit at incredible speeds. It seems a little off target so I use my connection to alter its trajectory sinking the arrow through the head ear to ear. It is then I learn, first hand, I could feel the life leaving to body through the crystal release arrow. Sending shivers down my spine.

My family, the Uzumaki had of course run tests and simply theorized that the mixture of earth, fire, and water was offset by my lightning nature chakra causing a mutation in the lava release. But it seemed to offer so much more in terms of use. It gave me a chakra sensory ability. I could see in pitch dark and thermal. And I could control the crystal structures to a great degree.

I quickly cleaned the rabbit near the stream and buried its innards using earth natured chakra to dig a deep hole. I then headed back towards the area where I left my cage trap as I started fantasizing about everything that may be possible with crystal release. I know Guren, in the anime held back the three tailed beast for quite sometime. She was also able to hold her own against Kakashi, lee, Naruto, Hinata and Ten-ten simultaneously.

Not to mention the versatility. She could create crystal from the very air giving her unlimited acess to jutsu resources. She could ride on crystal constructs to fly. She could use he technique to crystalize someone or thing down to a molecular level. Which in my scientific mind has great possibilities. Effecting anything at a molecular level would allow for very descreet but destructive applications.

I stop my thoughts as I come up to my cage with an unexpected surprise. I had bated it with a few almonds I had found expecting a squirrel, or rabbit. Instead inside the trap was two small golden Maka monkeys, one with white around their paws. The other black cuffs.

Their sunken stomachs were prominent. I debated with myself for awhile before ultimately deciding to at least feed them. As I approached the cage one of them noticed me and crouched down as I reached for the cage it jumped viciously growling and screaming. Trying to bite and scratch me through the cage. Making me worry for the other one who had only lifted its head. And tried to stand.

Being as they were only a few months old I simply opened the cage gave it a thick sleeve to attack and grabbed it by the scruff effectively rendering it a growling lump. I then flip the cage put the weak one in it maneuver around so that I my kimono is hanging off by before dumping ferocious monkey in the cage and covering it with the remnants of my kimono.

I then carry both to the fish trap which had a 3lb catfish in it. I fillte out the catfish with a small obsidian blade. I then slide the blade down the spine on both sides removing the fillets. Cleaning up I pay attention to check for worms as I debone the fillets.

Getting back to camp I throw some more wood on the fire and stoke it before spitting the rabbit and positioning it above the flames. I have the stick angled so that the fat deposits will run down the stick and into a bamboo section. I follow my mental map of local fuana and collect a wild onion and smash it into a paste after skinning and slicing it. I rub the paste over the fish before placing the pieces on a flat rock very near the fire. While I was out I also grab some almonds and berries for the mama's.

As my food finishes cooking I open the top of the cage, catch the spirited little black cuffed Maka who tries to take my face off with a small smile. I then identify its sex unsurprised that it is a male.

After messing with it for a while. Petting it as it growled at me I place it back in while extracting the weaker of the two. The Male is quite vocal with its unhappiness of being seperated from its sibling. I throw some food in there as I sit. It ignores it keeping its eyes on me.

The other is female and though breathing healthily it is only strong enough to lift its head and look up at me. I grind the almonds down to a paste with a mortar and pestle I make with my obsidian release. I then mix in a bit of water until its a soupy oatmeal consistency and then slowly feed the pup.

After eating most of my meal and haing some cooled off water that I had previously boiled I cut down a small bamboo section into a dish for them, and water them. Once again letting the weaker one suckle, this time using a piece of cloth to absorb water before putting it in her mouth.

" Rebirth, what plant material would be best to make the ink for fuinjutsu?" I ask setting about to complete my next task.

"There is a small group of artesma 35 ft south of your posistion. The plant is silverish green, with a shrub like appearance. When mixed with some blood, water, and tree resin it should make a decent chakra conductive ink." she replies.

(',')

"Congratulations Akuma, you have created a lvl 4 storage seal. Capable of storing 60 sq. Ft worth of material and with the function of stasis. Effectivley eleminating shelf life." Rebirth chimes a dozen minutes later.

I had mashed the plant material into a paste like substance before slicing into my forearm, and collecting the blood on top of the plant base adding small amount of water and tree sap. I mixed the concoction before seperating the liquid from the other materials.

I then create explosive tag, and a paralysis tag. I then store my extra food and ink into my new storage scroll before beggning my training.

I start by creating three obsidian balls and having the all float in front of me at eye level. I send one of them to the edge of my chakra sensory range. Only to discover that it expands along with the Obsidian. When it had reached the initial limit of my senses it had actually doubled my range in that direction. So I sent the other two balls in opposite directions until i was no longer within my own perception. But the surrounding forest 150 ft. out in every direction was easily perceived. I created another two balls keeping one floating in lazy circles around my head and sent the last in the only remaining direction.

Now having a centralized sensory position as well as having 150 sq.m in each cardinal direction. Giving me a cross shaped mental map with hundreds of millions of barely perceptible lifeforms. Mostly insect life. I could feel the significant mental strain of keeping the objects both afloat and at such distance.

Creating four more balls I send them to fill my blindspots and then contract, rotate, stack in one direction. Giving me a clear view for over 1300 meters. The strain had built to where I was getting a slight headache after roughly 2 minutes. I recalled the obsidian orbs and simply admired the cool sensation they offered resting in my palms.

I mentally compressed the 1/2 inch balls into thin discs. Each on now being flat 2 dimensional 4 inch circles. I sent one flying forward into a distant tree trunk. Upon feeling the impact I pushed the command to further expand turning the thin disc like blade into a 1 foot wide circle a sheet of paper thin, of pure cutting force. It easily passed through the original target and clipped a few others before coming to a stop 20 ft beyond the target. I smiled at the destruction. Though the disc only traveled at a rate of 150 feet per second or about 110 mph the damage dealt was quite high. The extra chakra consumption and mental strain from commanding it to expand caused a noticable impact however.

'Rebirth, how's project venom coming along?' I ask.

'With new input from experimentation with Kekkai Genkai and some test I believe we could build prototypes almost immediately.' She answered.

'Even in the rainforest? What's the timeline? And what will I need to do? Explain how they will work.'

'It will take an additional 2 weeks to build an estimated 150 drones. With a few seals we can enlarge small pieces of steel and various materials, to enscribe with further seals for delivering poison, and explosions. Then a shard of obsidian from your Kekkai Genkai to operate seals, you can release traces of chakra directly into them and operate via thought. Benefits: chakra sense, more mental training, poison, and explosive measures. When linked will fit like chain mail. Can be used for tracking.etc.'
