7: All About Chakra

After unlocking my Chakra.

An Anbu came at the entrance of Uncle's house saying that Uncle was summoned to the Hokage Office.

'That old man is probably heard about me and will ask Uncle."

Sigh...

The Third Hokage of Konoha even though he is very strong that old man is too soft and so foolish.

Sigh...

I wonder what the troublesome future is ahead of me.

"Kaburamaru."

I called out my friend's name, I stared at his mouth that was holding a bandage.

I smiled. Kaburamaru knows me well but not 'too well'.

"Thank you." I said, Kaburamaru softly hissed at me, it was his way of saying 'you're welcome'.

I took the bandage from Kaburamaru and wrapped it tightly covering my mouth. For some reason I have gotten used having the bandage wrapped around my mouth.

I stared at my right palm, 'I should also cover this one as well.'

Uncle said that there is a bandage here.

I should ask Unlce to buy me a gloves.

Obanai hold out his arm as Kaburamaru slithers towards his arm and neck.

I should go and read the Book.

"All About Chakra by Nara Shikaharu."

"... Chakra is essential to even the most basic jutsu. Through various methods, the most common of which is hand seals, chakra can be controlled and manipulated to create an effect that would not be possible otherwise, such as walking on water, exhaling fire, or creating illusions..."

"... Chakra has become a form of life energy that all individuals produce to some degree; those who run out of chakra will die..."

Flip

"... Produced within and manipulated by organs such as the heart, the energy circulates throughout the body in a network called the "Chakra Pathway System"..."

"... Groups such as shinobi have learned to generate more chakra and release it outside their bodies through pressure points called tenketsu in order to perform jutsu..."

Flip

Flip

"... Chakra is created when two more primal energies, known collectively as one's "stamina", are moulded together. Physical energy is collected from each of the body's cells and can be increased through training, stimulants, and exercise...

"... Spiritual energy is derived from the mind's consciousness and can be increased through studying, meditation, and experience..."

"... These two energies becoming more powerful will in turn make the created chakra more powerful. Therefore, practising a technique repeatedly will build up experience, increasing one's spiritual energy, and thus allowing more chakra to be created..."

Flip

Flip

"... As a result, a Shinobi is able to do that same technique with more power. This same cycle applies for physical energy, except the Shinobi needs to increase their endurance instead..."

Flip.

Flip.

"Chakra Control."

"Because chakra takes time and a great deal of training to gradually build up, the key to its use is not actually having large amounts of chakra but instead being able to sufficiently control and conserve it..."

"... This is called chakra control. In order to have good chakra control, a Shinobi should only mould as much chakra as they need to perform a given ability...

"... If a Shinobi mould more chakra than is needed, the excess chakra is wasted and they will tire out faster from its loss..."

"... If a Shinobi don't mould enough chakra, a technique will not be performed effectively, if at all, likely creating problems in a combat situation..."

"... Because chakra consists in part of spiritual energy, the user is more easily able to mould the correct amount of chakra by remaining calm and focused..."

"... General training methods for improving one's moulding and manipulation of chakra are the Leaf Concentration, Tree Climbing, and Water Surface Walking exercises..."

Flip.

Flip.

"... • Leaf Exercise - This training method is done by placing a leaf over an individual's forehead and having them direct all their chakra onto the leaf, using it as a focal point.

• Tree Climbing -  is a training method used to gain more skills with chakra control. This training involves focusing a fixed amount of chakra to the bottom of one's feet, and using that to climb a tree without using one's hands. If the stream of chakra is too weak, the user will lose their footing on the tree and fall off. If it is too strong, the user will be pushed away from the tree, causing the tree to break around the point of contact and the user will fall. 

• Water Walking - This training method is used to gain better chakra control. To do this, the user has to be emitting a constant stream of chakra from the bottom of their feet and using the repellent force to walk across the water's surface. This technique is more difficult to master than the Tree Climbing Practice, because the amount of chakra that needs to be emitted changes constantly.

"What are the Hand Seals and their perspective meanings."

"Hand Seals are used to perform many ninjutsu, genjutsu, and other secret arts other than taijutsu..."

"... They are designed to aid people in properly summoning and moulding chakra necessary to perform a technique..."

"... Although rare, it is possible for a shinobi to be able to do hand seals with just one hand..."

"... It is also possible for shinobi to form hand seals with one of their hands while using the hand of another person as a substitute for the opposite one..."

Flip.

Flip.

"... Even rarer than one-handed hand seals, are shinobi who have abandoned this traditional practice altogether, usually because their fighting style revolve around speed and quick reflexes and have developed techniques that require no hand seals to complement this fighting style..."

Flip.

"The twelve basic hand seals."

"There are twelve basic hand seals, and those are..."

"Monkey, Dragon, Rat, Bird, Dog, Snake, Horse, Ox, Tiger, Boar, Ram, Hare..."

Flip.

"Besides the twelve basic hand seals, there are unique hand seals used for certain techniques. These hand seals are rarely seen, and can be considered unique to specific techniques..."

"... Depending on the technique's chakra nature, the user must then form one of five one-handed seals to release the technique..."

"... These seals are:..."

"... Fire Release: A flat hand with all fingers extended...

"... Water Release: A flat hand with all fingers extended except the index finger, which is put under the thumb..."

"... Wind Release: Thumb and pinky are extended, the other fingers lie on the palm...

"... Earth Release: Index and middle finger are extended, the other fingers are curled into the palm. Known as Seal of confrontation..."

"... Lightning Release: Index and little finger are extended, the middle and ring finger are held down with the thumb..."

Flip.

"The Five Elemental Chakra Nature."

"... Nature Transformation is an advanced form of chakra control that entails the moulding and defining of the nature of one's chakra, altering its properties and characteristics for use in techniques..."

"... Nature transformation is one of two necessary components for creating or modifying a technique, the second component being shape transformation..."

"... While nature transformation changes the properties of the chakra, shape transformation changes the actual form and movement, altering its abilities..."

Flip.

Flip.

Flip.

"... The Five Basic Natures are the five elemental chakra natures, which are the foundation of all elemental ninjutsu. Each element is naturally weaker than and stronger than another:

"... Fire is strong against Wind but weak against Water.

"... Wind is strong against Lightning but weak against Fire..."

"... Lightning is strong against Earth but weak against Wind..."

"... Earth is strong against Water but weak against Lightning..."

"... Water is strong against Fire but weak against Earth..."

Flip.

Flip.

"... Basically, if an elemental technique is put against another elemental technique of the same level, but of a stronger nature, then the technique with the superior nature will prevail. However, a technique with a weaker nature can overpower a technique with a stronger nature if the former is of a higher level. For example, fire can overpower a water technique if it is first strengthened by a wind technique..."

Flip.

"Chakra Induction Paper."

"A Chakra induction paper can be used to detect an individuals Chakra affinity..."

"Fire: the paper will ignite and turn to ash..."

"... Wind: the paper will split in two...

"... Lightning: the paper will wrinkle...

"... Earth: the paper will turn to dirt and crumble away..."

"... Water: the paper will become wet/damp."

Obanai Flip until the last page of the book.

It was empty, the descriptions were empty, except for the title: The Origins of Chakra.

'Father must wanted to know the origins of Chakra..."

"... In the original story Chakra originally belonged to God Trees. When Kaguya Ōtsutsuki ate the fruit the God Tree bore, she became the first person in this world to wield chakra..."

"... from what I have read in the Boruto manga, Isshiki came to to this planet  alongside Kaguya with the objective to plant a Tree to harvest its Chakra Fruit. While Kaguya, being lower-ranked, was planned to be sacrificed to create the Chakra Fruit, she instead turned on Isshiki, leaving him on the verge of death after destroying Isshiki's lower half."

Sigh...

Father what your doing in the past is troublesomely dangerous.

But if you want I will fulfill your wish.

Obanai thought to himself determinedly.

'First I should do the Leaf Exercise. It is the basics among the basics Chakra control."
