Training and Jounin rank

---Pov Arashi---

I made it back to the village with my teammates headed to the Hokage office and reported all of the happenings of the battle I had. I had another month's break. Me and my temporary teammate's split up with them thanking me for the experience. The prestige of my name in the village has vastly increased from nobody to somebody. I was passing through a crowded area I could hear chatter around me.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see what looked like Uchiha from the symbol adorning their attire, They heard the commotion and came over to take a look. The two Uchiha eyed me before making their way toward me and in a condescending voice the Uchiha who looked to be the stronger out of the two chortled "I have heard about your esteemed reputation making the rounds and I wanted to get a good look my self you don't look like anything special though at least nothing special compared to the Uchiha clan" which made the weaker uchiha burst into condescending laughter".

Hearing that I just continued walking inwardly sighing 'What did they think this was a Chinese face slap novel I am not even going to entertain that' Arashi snorted inwardly. This puzzled them 'They thought I was just going to entertain their stupidity No I Am Not'!

They shouted "Wait" but I just decided the flicker away I was heading to the blacksmith to get my new chakra metal saber 'Yes I bought chakra metal with my savings of money from the missions'.

I made my way in and greeted Kyoji Utatane 'I guess he is the husband of that one council member I forge her name though'. I bought chakra metal directly from the source Hiruzen or his connections and I enlisted Utatane to make and forge my chakra metal saber.

I picked up the saber, its silver hue dazzled me I was ensnared by its beauty Utatane looked at me with the joy of someone whose work had paid off I quickly paid him and retreated to Sakumo's grave. I was itching to show this baby off.

There when I went to converge sakumo I felt a gaze on me This is the result of my battle experience that has been trained over this long period of taking on multiple missions. I didn't even look around "I just said I know you are there Come out". Suddenly someone appeared it was a silver-haired nin roughly around my age standing across from me with no emotions showing on his face he spoke "Why are you visiting his grave I have seen you do this on multiple occasions"? "Why"?

I looked at him knowing who he was and said "I just heard about him in books and wanted to come here and honor him I really looked up to him I returned with all of my shamelessness on display". I shot back "Who are you and why do you care"? The person in question went silent after my response and quickly flickered away. 'Wow, I felt my heart beating why is he so serious it felt like if I said the wrong word he would have stricken me down, then I smacked my head in realization he still had not recouped from his whole team dying'! I screamed inwardly.

I then feeling no presence lurking converged with Sakumo and told him about my saber. "Sensei look what I have," I said in a jubilant tone. Sakumo looked and sighed "You finally had the chakra blade huh". "This one is a beauty it looks like the craftsman put his soul into it" Sakumo mused. "Yes Sensei and I have also been on a variety of missions", I quickly caught him up on the happening in my life, and he returned "Hey since you have a solid grasp of the basics". "It's time I teach you something that will put you on another level" uttered Sakumo.

I was happy about another skill "What is it" I asked like a little kid on his birthday. Sakumo replied with just two words "Chakra flow" he explained the ins and outs of the skill and I started in training ground 3. What he explained to me was

Chakra Flow: To infuse a weapon, the ninja channels their elemental chakra through the weapon's structure. The chakra is carefully controlled and aligned with the weapon's form. The weapon acts as a medium for the elemental chakra.

Application: Depending on the weapon and the technique, the ninja can apply the elemental effect in different ways. For example:

Coating: The weapon's surface may be coated with the element, allowing it to deliver elemental damage upon contact.

Projectile: The weapon may release elemental projectiles when thrown or used in ranged attacks.

Explosion: Some techniques involve releasing the elemental chakra in explosive bursts upon impact.

Enhancement: Elemental infusion can enhance the weapon's physical properties, such as making it sharper or more durable. I started training

My progress in mastering water chakra flow progressed quickly and I managed to grasp it in this two-week time period. Enhancing my slicing power over the two-week period was remarkable. The constant effort I put into My training not only improved My chakra control but also expanded my chakra reserves. As a result, you now felt confident that you were on the cusp of advancing to the Jonin rank.

I hadn't thanked Sakumo like I have now I bowed "Thank you sensei Honestly without you I would be nothing" I was pouring my heart out only to be met by silence i looked up only to see no one "Oh he deconverged". "Embarasssssing!"
