Naruto - The Wind Calamity

Chapter 162 : Should I form a Personal Force?

Fujin's eyes in the meditation room suddenly opened. A frown formed on his face when he received the information, 'Wind and Lightning are indeed a bad combination. Though the clone found decent ninjutsus, there wasn't a single Lightning jutsu that could compliment my current skills.'

He analyzed for some time before concluding, 'Looks like other than Raikage's Lightning cloak mode and Sasuke's Kirin, the remaining Lightning jutsus won't be of any use to me when it comes to improving my strength. So that leaves only concealment.

Alright. I'll form a new combat system based on my Lightning jutsus. I won't use any Wind jutsus or jutsus that can connect me with Konoha except the Shadow Clone and Body Flicker jutsus. The basis of this new system will be speed complemented by high accuracy and high penetration power attacks.

While I don't have any immediate need of creating such a persona, I am currently in a very peaceful phase with a lot of free time. It's best to create this combat system before my life becomes hectic.

With that decided, time to start learning the jutsus. I'll start with...'

Fujin's thoughts were interrupted as he heard a doorbell. He wondered, 'Who'd come to visit at this time? Is Renjiro back? No, the chakra signature is too low.'

Fujin went up to check. Before opening the door, he sealed up the entrance to the basement. Fujin opened the door to see 5 faces that he didn't recognize. After a few seconds, he recognized a couple of them and was surprised. He thought, 'Well, what a surprise. I nearly forgot about these two. I wonder why they are here.'

Aoki Daisuke said with a bit of nervousness, "Hey Fujin. How have you been?"

Tatsuya also greeted Fujin.

[A/N: They are the orphans who joined the Academy alongside Fujin.]

Fujin said, "I have been doing well. How about you two? Anyways, come in."

The 5 young boys entered his house.

Daisuke looked around the house with marvel. He was already surprised when he saw it from the outside. He exclaimed, "Your house is magnificent Fujin!"

Fujin said, "Thanks."

They sat in the circular room. Fujin asked, "So, what brings you here? Also, who are these 3?"

Daisuke introduced them, "They are our good friends. They are Anzai Buncho, Handa Bunjiro and Iriye Ryoma. They are our best friends from our class and are orphans just like us."

Fujin checked each one of them. All seemed normal. He said, "Hey"

They greeted Fujin back.

Fujin noticed a bit of nervousness on Daisuke's face. He said, "Fujin, we actually came here because we wanted to ask for your help."

Fujin asked, "What help?"

He said, "Actually, we are struggling in the academy. Our graduation exams are less than half a year away and I am afraid that we will fail. We saw your fight in the Chunin exams and saw how you defeated everyone with ease. Even the kids from ninja clans weren't a match for you! So we wanted to ask for your help and guidance to pass the exam."

Fujin was surprised to hear that. It wasn't just the request that surprised him, but rather the change in Daisuke. He thought, 'I know that the adults in this world are scheming bastards. But how the fuck did this straightforward guy become such a smooth talker. He perfectly blended flattering with the request such that it wouldn't seem too much and instead look very genuine!'

Seeing that Fujin was not answering made the 5 boys a bit nervous. They had decided to let Daisuke do most of the talking as he was familiar with Fujin. But as Fujin didn't reply, Tatsuya asked, "Fujin?"
