Chapter 41: 41. What next??
·41. What next??14 JanWith his new found resolve, Reko went out of his house while reading out from the system screen. The constant use of shadow clone jutsu and that too for training was helpful in leveling the skill up.

Kekkei genkai - Steal
[Shadow clone (40/200) level 8]
Evenly distributes the chakra of a user and makes a physical clone.
Practice to keep leveling up and unlocking new perks.
Perk:
Level 5 - can make two shadow clones.
...
As Reko analysed the system screen in front of his face, he realised that the perk for the shadow clone jutsu getting to level five was that he could make two shadow clones.
"I can make two shadow clones now? Doesn't feel like much of an upgrade." Reko muttered to himself, wondering how the perk would help him.
He had successfully made shadow clone in his first try. It was not difficult for him to try and make another clone if he really wanted to. It was his constraints in chakra which restrained him from doing so, due to his constant drain from kekkei genkai.
"Oh I get it now! This is shadow clone jutsu and not the forbidden multi shadow clone. So, another clone is a good enough progress." Reko felt that shadow clone jutsu was inherently different from multi shadow clone. An increase of one shadow clone was already very good if he thought from that point of view.
"And maybe, it is about the strain from the memories of the shadow clone." The strain that he should have felt from his clones memories were almost non existent.
Reko came to a conclusion that this perk could be seen as a spiritual enhancement which reduced his memory strain. Though, it was only an assumption at this point.
"This aside, how should I go forward with my next steps?" Reko muttered, deep in thought, recalling his memories. He had a lot in his mind and he needed to organise his to-do list.
"What are the changes that's going to happen in this break of two and half years? Konaha 11 become Chunin and Sakura trains under Tsunade." Reko muttered, recalling the events that were supposed to take place in the coming two and half years.
He had this time to himself, where he could train, enjoy, and make connections with the right shinobi without the interference from big characters.
From his memories, he recalled that this time was pretty uneventful for the village. Shinobi patrolling the borders was the majority of missions, with the exception of some of the rare top rank missions, there were no major events that occurred in the village.
"Right!! Tsunade, I need to learn medical ninjutsu from her. There is no other way for me to keep using the Rasengan." As Reko thought of the lack of endurance in his shadow clone, he understood that learning medical ninjutsu would become a necessity if he had to practice Rasengan and it's various forms.
Though, he would be very happy to learn medical ninjutsu, no matter whether he needed it for a ninjutsu training or not.
"I can't even practice it through shadow clone because my clones do not have enough endurance to bear with the intense damage on the palm." Reko sighed in regret, even something as broken as shadow clone jutsu could not be used to practice S rank jutsu.
He could Keep spamming Shadow clone jutsu to practice Rasengan but that was not possible currently when his surplus chakra was going to his kekkei genkai.
It would have been different if he just needed to perform Rasengan only but he wanted to master it, and the strong physique would help him to bear with the recoil of the technique until he perfects his chakra control.
Though, it would get better as he progresses and increases his level of shadow clone. But by that time, his physique would already be strong enough to experiment and practice the other variations of Rasengan.

Complete mission without any casuality
Reward - Tsunade's tutelage.

"Go to Tsunade then!!" Reko decided, having choosen his goal. He was unsure about convincing Tsunade to become his master but he could give it a try.
The quest on his system screen had popped up in a timely manner, allowing him to easily decide on his next move.
While on the way, Reko climbed and jumped over various houses, making his way to the Hokage office. He was deep in thought, thinking about Tsunade and how he would go around impressing her.
"Hey Tsume! On your way to the Hokage office?" Reko greeted Tsume with a smile as he found her heading to the same direction as him.
Tsume was with her ninja beast by her side, quickly making way to the Hokage office after being called.
"Yeah. You too?" Tsume asked, still running with same pace but with Reko by her side. She had been summoned to the office. So, she assumed that Reko might have been summoned too.
"Yeah. I was just looking for a mission. Something to grow, stronger!" Reko said as he glanced at Tsume, jumping and running.
"Grow? You have grown quite well. You would be a Tokubetsu Jonin if you get a specialisation." Tsume complimented, her opinion of Reko was high. With how fast Reko learned shadow clone jutsu, it was easy to guess that reaching Tokubetsu Jonin rank was just a matter of time.
She suggested him to get a specialisation as that would help Reko grow as a shinobi while also increasing his rank at the same time.
"Yeah? I am looking forward to it. Though, I was thinking of learning medical ninjutsu. But, a little different from Hana, medical ninjutsu for humans." Reko replied, a specialisation was necessary to rank up. He also mentioned that he wanted to learn medical ninjutsu but different from Tsume's daughter.
He suddenly recalled the instant when he squeezed Tsume's butt in presence of her daughter, causing his eyes to involuntarily stick to Tsume's curves.
"Medical ninjutsu? You should go at the hospital. You will be able to find a teacher. And I did hear from Kiba that Lady Tsunade is teaching a genin there." Tsume suggested, she remembered her son telling how his kunoichi friends were learning under lady Tsunade, the woman at the pinnacle of medical ninjutsu.
She hoped that Reko would be able to join them at the hospital. From his talent in ninjutsu, he would be favoured by Tsunade without doubt.
