Learning the Basics Again
Sasuke glared at Kakashi in shock.
"Nani?!" Naruto yelled. Kakashi sighed and rubbed his forehead.
"We have to learn the basics all over again." He repeated more slowly.
"Why?!" Naruto demanded. Kakashi had woken all of them up early and told them that they needed to go over the basics again. The other jounin and Janghoon agreed with him so they were all going to take their teams and reteach them.
"Naruto, you know a few good jutsu but no basics. You need to have a good foundation to build on later. Sakura, you have a great knowledge about any jutsu there is and you are good at genjutsu and have excellent chakra control. But you only can perform a few basics and your chakra is low. You need to build up your strength, stamina, and chakra levels so you can perform higher level jutsu. Sasuke, you have a good basics and basic jutsu. But you never bother with your teammates. Do you even know where Naruto lives now? Sasuke, lose your arrogance and become part of this team. You'll never make it on this mission as you are now." Sasuke glared at Kakashi who merely looked back to the other two. "Naruto, Sakura, I want you to practice some taijutsu with me. I will show you the basics and you must master them before doing anything else."
"Demo! We have to get the Celia mountains!" Naruto argue. Kakashi nodded.
"That's why I insisted we cover so much ground in a day. That way we can practice along the way and not have to rush." Kakashi turned back to Sasuke. "Sasuke, I want you to work too. You won't be able to learn any of the techniques at the Celia mountains if you are willing to do anything to gain power."
"Hinata, you need to work on you confidence. You have the ability to do what you want. You're just too shy. I want you to practice taijutsu alittle more also. Then you'll be able to get through the mission without a problem. You have the talent. Kiba," Kurenai turned to him. "You need to work on teamwork. You too Shino. Other than that, you will get through this. I want you to work with Hinata on her taijutsu." Kurenai stared at the three genin. "Anything else?" No one spoke. "Good, now get to work!"
Asuma stared at his team. 'This will come back and bite me in the butt later.'
"You need to stop focusing on the useless things in life. Boys, junk foods, and watching clouds." He felt Ino glaring daggers at him. "You also need to learn a few more advanced jutsu. All three of you rely on a special jutsu throughout everything. Just build up your stamina and stop goofing off. The mission comes first. You'll be able to learn a few more advanced jutsu once we reach the Celia mountains."
"I know you don't need to practice!!! My team has over come everything thrown at it and what's more-" Kakashi cut off Gai.
"Since you have been together a year longer and have had more missions, thus increasing your skills, all you need to do is perfect any weaknesses and not rely so heavily on a few moves." Gai glared at Kakashi before going into a speech.
"I was about to say that. Now, even though we are eternal rivals, we must not try to show up each other and-"
"Gai-sensei, he's gone." Tenten pointed out. Gai shouted at Kakashi's back about besting him once more and that it won't happen again.
"Alright, we have to improve ourselves because Setsuko-sensei isn't here to do so." Janghoon told the others. Riki snorted.
"Who made you the boss?!" Janghoon sighed.
"Listen, I don't want to fight. Setsuko-sensei said before that we need to work on teamwork. We'll do that and help each other the best we can." Seung nodded.
"Hai." She turned to Riki. "Riki-kun, we may not like it, but Janghoon is best for being the leader while Setsuko-sensei is gone. Mum and pop always made him study. He has the best knowledge out of us three." Riki stared at her before sighing.
"Fine. Only until Setsuko-sensei is back." Janghoon nodded.
"Good. Now let's work on our teamwork and skills."
"Why must I learn these foolish tricks?!" Bensha demanded. Kabuto sighed.
"Or-"
"If you merely repeat the snake's words, I will rip you open to see if you are indeed a puppet." Kabuto stared at Bensha. She had been getting more and more violent.
"You agreed to learning to use your powers again, correct?"
"My powers?! My powers are beyond you humans. I am here only because the wind has led me here." She stepped up to him and stared into his eyes. "No other reason." Bensha hissed as Kabuto backed away. "The snake will watch his back. Because of him I am now stuck in a shell of my former glory, my powers overwhelm the shell, ripping at the very seams of its existence. Should I use my full power, the body would not last even a fraction of a second. So my powers are locked away by the wind to keep the current Uindo Bensha safe. But I have more than enough power to tear you limb from limb without bothering to look at you! I want to know how to bring the creatures of air!!!" She grabbed Kabuto by the collar and lifted him off the air. "I do not want to bother with the snakes he uses! If he cannot give me the secret to summon from air, not ground, then he is of no use to me! I can overcome these fears, I am Bensha! That is all there is to it. Now, if he does not tell me how to summon the air, not snakes, then I will kill him." Bensha threw Kabuto to the side. "Go tell your master that I will not be denied longer. He has pushed me to the extent of my patience."
"Gomen, demo . . ." She glared at him. "He is busy. I can teach you the hands seals to summon birds but you have to sign a contract with them." Bensha smirked.
"I see. Well, show me this contract and I will sign it." Kabuto nodded.
Kakashi dodged a kick from Naruto.
"You're to slow and sloppy." Naruto glared at Kakashi.
"This is stupid!!! We should be going to the Celia mountains instead of this!"
"Naruto, Sakura is better than you in the basics at the moment. You have to do this in order to learn more jutsu." Naruto only glared as Kakashi sighed. "If you don't improve then Bensha can't be beaten. It is more powerful than us." Kakashi dropped his voice so other wouldn't hear. "Right now, you have no chance of get Setsuko back, even with the Kyuubi's help. You're the only one with enough raw power to take on Bensha, but because you don't have a good foundation, she destroy you no matter how much of the Kyuubi you use." Naruto nodded.
"Fine. I won't let Bensha have my cousin." Kakashi nodded.
"Good. At the Celia mountains, I'll train you to use the Kyuubi better, also, there are some jutsu that you'll be able to learn that the others can't." Naruto nodded once more. "Okay, let's work on that taijutsu some more."
Bensha pressed a blood cover hand onto the contract. The name above was Uzumaki Setsuko.
"Why don't you sign your own name?" Kabuto asked as he looked over her shoulder. Bensha glared at him out of the corner of her eye.
"This body is not mine. The blood is not mine. Therefore, I could not use it if I wrote my name." Bensha's hands moved quickly as if she had been doing them all her life.
"You learn fast." Kabuto commented as Bensha turned her attention to her hand as it slammed down into the ground. She removed it to see a small bird.
"What is this?" Kabuto bit back a laugh.
"That is a baby bird. With practice, you should be able to summon the head bird." Bensha knelt down to the bird and picked it up in her hand.
"I want you to tell you to spread the word to every bird. Tell them that Bensha is back. I except them to understand. If they do not, tell them that the wind has risen once more."
