"Somehow, I seem to have misplaced the scroll for the Iwa Bunshin no Jutsu." Iruka said in resignation, "I'll have to go off to the Shinobi section of the library and see if I left it there. While I'm gone, you can learn the Tree Climbing Exercise."

"How will climbing trees help me?" Naruto asked in confusion.

"Without your hands. Watch." Iruka went over to the Academy building and made the Ram Handsign before, much to Naruto's amazement, walking straight up the wall to thee top of the building and back down to the ground.

"So cool!" Naruto exclaimed, his eyes shining in amazement.

"Learning Tree Climbing is one of the things that your Jonin-sensei usually teaches you after graduation, as Tenten said." Iruka went into lecture mode again, "Your feet are the hardest part of your body to channel chakra to, and so if you can channel chakra there, you can channel chakra anywhere on your body. In addition, it slightly builds your reserves up while doing it."

Iruka led Naruto to a tree and passed him a kunai. "Climb one of these trees and use the Kunai to mark your progress." the scar-faced Chunin directed his student, "Keep your mind clear and do not get frustrated. As I taught you with sealing items in scrolls, experiment with how much chakra to use on each foot. Too little and you'll slide off, too much and you'll be pushed away from the tree."

"Gotcha Iruka-sensei." Naruto nodded with a grin.

With a final admonishment to work hard, Iruka vanished in a puff of Chakra smoke.

"Now then…" Naruto turned his attention to the skill creation windows he had been ignoring while Iruka-sensei had been talking to him.

[Skill Created!]

[Natural Primary Wind Affinity] (Passive) [LV 1, 00.00 EXP]

The affinity of Wind is rare in the Elemental Nations, although more are born in Kaze no Kuni than anywhere else. Even those who possess the affinity rarely train it because of the sheer difficulty in mastering it compared to other elements. For those with the determination and perseverance to master it however, the Wind Element can be a weapon of unparalleled power and subtlety.

Strong against: Lightning.

Weak against: Fire.

-Passively reduces the amount of chakra for Fūton Jutsu by 1%.

-Passively increases the effectiveness of Fūton Jutsu by 1%.

[Skill Created!]

[Secondary Earth Affinity] (Passive) [LV 1, 00.00 EXP]

Earth affinities are not uncommon in the Elemental Nations, although Ishi no Kuni and Tsuchi no Kuni are the ones who have more born there than any other country. Earth Ninjutsu is seen as primarily a element of defence, but in the right hands one can make traps, launch counterattacks and even alter the landscape itself.

Strong against: Fire, Water.

Weak against: Lightning, Wind.

-Passively decreases the chakra cost of Doton Jutsu by 1%.

-Passively increases the effectiveness of Doton Jutsu by 1%.

"Kick ass." Naruto smirked before spotting the quest window that floated to one side.

[Quest Alert!]

Climb to the Top: Iruka-sensei has given you the task of attempting the Tree Climbing Exercise. Do your best to fulfil his expectations!

Quest Objective: Reach Level 2 of the Tree Climbing Exercise before Iruka-sensei returns.

Quest Completion Reward: + 500 EXP, Doton: Iwa Bunshin no Jutsu Scroll, +100 Reputation with Umino Iruka

Quest Failure: Doton: Iwa Bunshin no Jutsu Scroll

Accept?

[Y/N]

"Another Quest that I can't ignore. Meh." Naruto shrugged as he tapped the 'Y' button. He was going to do this anyway, so the reward was just icing on the cake.

Placing one foot on the nearest tree, Naruto made the Ram handsign as Iruka-sensei had done and started channelling a trickle of chakra to his foot, which actually seemed to resist the energy. Gradually and carefully raising the amount of chakra he sent into his foot, he stopped when his foot adhered to the tree bark.

'OK, that's about a quarter of what I use for my improved version of the Henge no Jutsu. Now for the other foot…' Naruto thought. Quickly reproducing the same amount of chakra in his other foot before placing it on the tree, Naruto then started running up the tree…only to fall off after two steps.

"What the hell?!" Naruto yelped as he fell on his butt, "Dammit! Let's try that again…"

It took more than a few false starts, but eventually, Naruto managed to run up the tree for a few steps before falling down again. After a few repetitions of this, he finally created the skill.

[Skill Created!]

As a result of repeated actions, you have created the [Tree Climbing] Skill.

[Tree Climbing] (Passive/Active) [LV 1, 23.99]

The Tree Climbing exercise is one of the first chakra control exercises a fresh Genin learns after graduation from the Academy. Fulfilling several roles, this training exercise is the forerunner of the more difficult Water Walking Exercise, as well as laying the foundation for the Tree Jumping Skill.

-Passively increases Chakra Control by 1%.

-Passively raises CP by 1%.

-Actively allows the user to stick to any solid surface that is not a chakra repellent. Costs 15 CP/minute.

"Yatta!" Naruto cheered, "Now to start building this skill up!"

Apparently, Iruka-sensei wasn't kidding about negative feelings dragging him down; what he had neglected to tell Naruto was that feeling confident actually helped him do better at it! The blond orphan was giving thanks that, for whatever reason, he had monstrous stamina.

'Stamina 35 for the win!' Naruto thought as he finally managed to get halfway up the tree. He noted the half-a-dozen or so windows that floated around him all bearing similar messages.
