After some training, during which he learned that being hit by the sword bouncing off the walls and onto his ankle was very, very painful, the [Gamer] came through for him once more.
[Self-Taught Kodachi Kenjutsu] (Level 1, 00.00) [Passive and Active]
Kenjutsu, the Art of the Sword for the purpose of battle, is an ancient art dating back centuries. Most people use a formal style, but you have created your own. At the very least, you will not cut your foot off while wielding your sword. Kodachi are defence-oriented weapons, so you gain +1 INT while wielding a kodachi to reflect the superior defences you possess.
- Passively Increases STR by 2%.
- Passively Increases DEX by 2%.
- Actively Increases Damage dealt by [Kodachi]-type weapons by 5%.
…
"Why do all of them imply that I'm clumsy?!" Naruto growled. Seriously, every 'Self-Taught' style he came up with made it sound like he had two left feet and was drunk as a lord on top of it all!
"Whatever." He muttered and destroyed his protesting Iwa Bunshin with his Kodachi. Time to work on his Calligraphy.
After he cleaned and stored his practice weapons, Naruto trotted back up to his rooms and settled down to start working when an idea occurred to him.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" he commanded after he made the Clone Handsign. Four clones appeared in an explosion of chakra smoke and his CP dropped by almost half.
"Right! Let's get practicing!" he ordered.
"Right!" his clones echoed back at him and went to get some extra calligraphy supplies from his stock.
It was a surprised Iruka who came and walked in on five Naruto clones working feverishly at his calligraphy. The scarred Chunin just looked for a minute as Naruto (one of them anyway) looked up and saw him.
"Ah! Iruka-sensei!" the Naruto declared.
"Hey there." Iruka greeted the group in amusement, "Which of you is the original Naruto?"
"That'd be me!" all of them declared at once, before they glared at each other.
"Who's the original?! I am, damn you!" one Naruto declared.
"Like hell! I am!" another retorted.
"Oh now it's on!"
Much to Iruka's amusement, the five Narutos then got into a fistfight, ending with four of them vanishing, leaving the original looking irritated.
"Damn mouthy clones." he muttered, "Are they supposed to do that? Act all mouthy and everything?"
"It depends on the amount of chakra you put in them." Iruka replied with a chuckle, "Unlike Elemental Clones, which have a fixed amount of chakra that they need to be created, as well as a limit to how much each clone can have before the material becomes full to bursting and collapses, Shadow Clones become a closer copy of the original as more chakra is spent on them, meaning they can even have personalities and be capable of independent thought if you invest enough chakra into them."
"Huh…" Naruto looked thoughtful at this.
"Anyway, what's with the calligraphy?" the Chunin-sensei asked.
"Oh! It's so I can start learning Fūinjutsu." Naruto said with a grin, "I found out that the Uzumaki Clan was famous for their ability to use seals, so I thought I'd learn it too."
"So you decided on learning calligraphy? Smart." Iruka said, "Let's see…huh. Not bad. A little more and you'll be ready to try your hand at basic Storage Scrolls."
"Yatta!" Naruto cheered, before remembering something, "Oh yeah, did you need?"
"Am I not allowed to visit one of my students?" Iruka feigned hurt.
"Ah! No, that's not it!" Naruto denied quickly.
"Just having you on Naruto." Iruka ruffled the boy's hair, "I came to see how you were doing."
"Just training." Naruto shrugged, "It isn't like I have anything better to do."
Iruka nodded sympathetically. "I see. Why don't you go to the library and borrow some books?"
"The old lady at the library won't let me in." Naruto said glumly, "And you need a library card to borrow anything, so I can't just Henge into someone to borrow some."
"You sound like you've done that before." Iruka observed.
"…when I went to get calligraphy supplies, I Henge'd into you." Naruto muttered.
"That's odd." Iruka frowned. That did explain why the owner of the shop was surprised by him buying more, but… "There should be anti-genjutsu seals at the entrance to each store. No one should be able to enter them without the Henge collapsing."
Naruto blinked at this. That meant…oh! His Henge wasn't just an illusion; it was solid! He'd forgotten about that.
"Maybe the seals need checked?" he said with a shrug.
"Maybe." Iruka wasn't convinced, but he let it go. If Naruto had to use the transformation jutsu just to buy basic supplies, then there was no point scolding him for it. Perhaps a word with the Hokage was in order though. Naruto had obviously gotten so used to this kind of treatment that it was no longer something he noticed anymore.
"I'll have a word with Hokage-sama about the librarian." he said instead, "That attitude isn't one that someone in charge of the civilian side of the library should have."
The Konohagakure Library was divided into two levels. One had the civilian library, with basic reading from fiction to non-fiction, as well as many copies of the Academy Three Jutsu for those who wish to study them.
The other was the Shinobi section, which held copies of non-Clan Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Kenjutsu and Genjutsu. A lot of them came from the archives of the Uchiha Clan after they were massacred, from various enemy shinobi they had used their Sharingan on. The only way into the library was from a staircase guarded by two Chunin and it led down under the civilian library.
Naruto would be graduating in a few months time and having access to the library was vital for both before and after the graduation.
"OK." Naruto nodded.
"In the meantime, why don't you go and investigate the next area of Training Field 13?" the scarred Chunin suggested.
"I get the feeling that the chakra mutations are stronger there, so I'm planning on waiting until I get my tantō before trying there." Naruto replied seriously.
'Caution? From Naruto? He's matured.' Iruka thought proudly. A couple of months ago, Naruto would have gotten himself into trouble by running headfirst into danger without a second thought.
