Naruto- Secret Sage

It was my hope that with all of these techniques I could attempt to make an imitation of something I had read about in the history books but only a single clan was ever known to have pulled off, Susanoo. Labeled "the ultimate defense" an uchiha with some evolution to their eyes known as a Mangekyou sharingan could create a solid chakra projection that was said to be extremely durable. I could care less about the durability though as what I wanted to do was hopefully create a solid projection in the shape of my beasts.-

Imitating them with my taijutsu and abilities was all well and good but if I succeeded I could go even further and truly mimic them perfectly. According to my theories I had everything I needed to make this technique as I had shape transformation, emission and solidification thanks to all of these chakra techniques I had. Practical testing however was less than ideal in outcomes. My first attempt ended with me losing the top layer of my skin on my right arm in a violent backlash of chakra. It was a gruesome sight and hurt like hell to boot.-

Admittedly I had gotten rather ahead of my self and tried to directly create a chakra projection around my arm but the chakra got out of hand and well the results spoke for themselves. As it turned out my chakra techniques didn't want to fuse like I had hoped and instead violently clashed. I contained my eagerness and decided to take this matter slowly and in a step by step manner after that. I started with chakra layering as that was how I solidified my chakra and the clash there was between it and chakra flow.-

See the way I created the solidification was by creating four layers of chakra all crushed together into a single dense layer. Technically this could be considered an entirely new chakra technique as I could make what was effectively hard light constructs this way. I didn't count it as one though as it really was just the same thing taken to an extreme. Anyways the issue between this solidification and chakra flow was that they kinda countered each other. Solidification was absolute stillness and flow was absolute movement. It was a standard immovable object versus unstoppable force type deal the answer to which was both getting destroyed.-

The issue I was having was that I needed the chakra to be both solid and able to freely move in order to pull off the projection like I wanted. You may be wondering why I was trying to do this when my [sage art: malefic destroyer] jutsu accomplished something like what I wanted. The truth of the matter was that unlike pure chakra that didn't have any weaknesses that jutsu had a VERY big one, water. The conversion of chakra to a physical substance like that toxin may give it the ability to form solid shapes but it also introduced material flaws to the technique that a single bad matchup would ruin.-

In that jutsus case the toxin was able to be dispersed using water release jutsu. What I wanted instead was a technique that would allow me to create solid objects out of neutral chakra and thus not have any material weaknesses. It was extremely ambitious and I knew it so I wasn't surprised at how difficult it was to pull off. The next big issue I had to deal with was the clash between emission and solidification. Emissions biggest flaw was that I wasn't a Hyuga and as such had trouble sending chakra out of every chakra point in my body at the same time.-

Don't get me wrong I COULD do it but it wasn't smooth and even like with the Hyuga. A little context that you need to understand was that for nearly all humans there existed three hundred and sixty one pressure points along the chakra system that chakra could in theory be emitted from. Most shinobi only emit chakra from their hands and feet however as that was what was needed to utilize jutsu but by no means were they unable to emit it from other places merely they needed to practice to do so.-

The Hyuga clan however were naturally able to emit chakra from any pressure point freely without any training. I on the other hand had ironically enough trained myself to do the same with my leaf sticking chakra control exercises by placing leaves and stones all over my body. As a result I could barely match the natural ability of a Hyuga clan member in this regard, a fact I can assure you impressed them to no end.-

This ability to emit chakra from ones whole body was key to the projection if my theory was correct as it allowed the person creating the projection to fully fuel and control it. It was a bit like when a knight put on a set of plate mail that covered every inch of them. Much like the issue with solidification and flow, solidification and emission didn't work all that well together. Thankfully this was merely a balancing issue rather than an opposing nature one. Basically no matter how good my control was there was always a constant loss of chakra when I solidified the stuff, slow but there none the less.-

The balancing issue I am talking about was that I had to figure out how much chakra to emit to keep up the solid construct without creating pressure underneath the solid stuff from excess chakra building up. This was not particularly hard to figure out and as a result I could create a solid chakra structure around me that was stupidly sturdy but entirely immobile unfortunately. I also needed to really work on my shaping of the solid chakra as I could make vague shapes but detailed images eluded me even after two months of effort.-

To be fair though I wasn't focusing all my time and attention on this one project and was also working on ninjutsu, missions and hanging out with Naruto when he was free to do so. Speaking of my favorite foxy blonde(pun intended) he had been growing quite well now that Kakashi was actually trying to teach his squad. Lets be honest right now the man was probably only doing it to prove me wrong but I don't care about motivation in this scenario, just the results. And all the results said that once he stopped wasting time he was a pretty good sensei.-

He also must not have been a terrible person either since besides complaining about how hard the training is Naruto hasn't mentioned anything negative about the man. It might not seem like it but Naruto is a pretty fair person when it comes to discerning decent people. Loathe as I am to admit it Naruto couldn't really ask for a better sensei just starting out from the academy. Kakashi was surprisingly good at figuring out how Narutos rather "unique" talents manifested themselves and capitalizing on them to help him grow.
