Shiro's development wasn't the only thing worth mentioning during this six month period as I and others had made great strides forward. Lets start with Naruto who had learned a B rank wind release jutsu and even developed a rather interesting use for chakra threads. How he achieved this was simply by abusing the unholy hell out of the [multishadow clone] jutsu and getting some outside inspiration. The blonde learned the B rank jutsu [Typhoon palm] that was a direct upgrade of the [Gale palm] jutsu.-
[Typhoon palm] was as the name implied a release of a massive amount of sharp wind in the form of a sideways tornado from your palm. Unlike [Great breakthrough] jutsu that was more about sending out a wide area of forceful wind to send your opponent flying and if used right smashing into a hard object [typhoon palm] was all semi-focused destruction in a location you pointed. Moving on from that jutsu Naruto had taken inspiration from my chakra flow and chakra projection.-
He created a weird but interesting way to utilize his chakra threads that I must admit he's gotten quite good at using. Basically what he does is create several thousand short threads that he covers his body in while lashing out with them in a sharp manner if you got to close to him. You may be asking how he even has the focus to use so many chakra threads and that's why I said it was weird. -
Rather than use an ungodly amount of focus to control so many normal long threads Naruto instead traded range for quantity. It takes way less focus to create thousands of six inch threads and keep them up than it does to create ten several meter long threads. Naruto simplified things even further by using the threads as a sort of armor on his arms and torso as he only needed to keep them in place until it was time to make them sharp and stabby. The technique had serious flaws as he still needed a lot of focus to keep up the armor and utilize it quickly and until his brain got used to such a heavy workload he'd have a laggy reaction time.-
The trade off however was that he was a taijutsu nightmare as he was practically un touchable as his sharp threads stabbed you if you got too close to him and that included throwing weapons as well that he could "grab" with his threads to stop harmlessly. It was the sort of unhinged technique that suited him perfectly with his reckless way of fighting. You'd never catch anyone else using it however as it was massively chakra depletive. Like even Naruto could only keep it up for five minutes type depletive.-
There had been other developments during the last six months as well such as my sensei breaking the hold that her phobia had over her more or less. There was some residual anxiousness at the sight of the stuff but she told me that she could at least perform minor surgeries without freezing which was massive progress. Sasuke had also ramped up his training when he noticed Naruto starting to surpass him and Kakashi being a dumbass taught the vengeance driven brat the [lightning cutter] which was a REALLY bad idea.-
Sakura was being left behind but there wasn't much she could do about that without branching out to less traveled paths. She was not very good at taijutsu or ninjutsu but her chakra control was rather good so I suppose she could make a decent iryonin if she didn't scoff at the profession. Oh yeah she totally scoffed at me when I told her about her potential as a medical ninja and I might have gotten rather offended. I didn't hurt her or anything but I was damned tempted to back hand her for insulting the profession.-
She had the audacity to say that iryonin had no future as shinobi like there wasn't dozens of examples that said otherwise. Hell iryonin had the highest Jonin ratio out of all the professions a shinobi could have SPECIFICALLY because of the chakra control and precision that it requires. It's astonishing just how big a difference excellent chakra control makes when performing ninjutsu and various other combat shinobi things like weapon throwing, stealth and more. Moving on from that lost cause we had Kiba(the dude not the beast) who had gotten really good at the Inuzuka clans taijutsu and jutsus after getting tips from me periodically.-
Shino also got a few types of bugs that were unique to him after I found and commanded them to listen to him. He has no less than twelve different types of poisonous insects now and that meant he was a nightmare to deal with if he went for assassinations. I wasn't really paying attention to my other classmates other than perhaps Rock Lee who I was rooting for as he had truly come quite far since the academy under Might Guy. He couldn't use ninjutsu but let me tell you if he went all out Rock lee was a force to be reckoned with.-
I believe it was a technique called the [eight gates] that Might Guy and Rock Lee trained in but it caused them to become way more powerful with each gate that they released though I had personally only seen them use up to the fourth gate. The technique had way more downsides than upsides however as it can and will destroy your body every time you use it as according to Guy the technique worked by removing the innate limiters of whoever used it which obviously meant that you went past what was safe for your body to handle.-
Might Guy was more than happy to try and teach me the first few gates of the technique but after feeling the recoil of the first gate I flat out told him it wasn't for me. The man didn't seem disappointed or even surprised but very seriously told me that it wasn't for most people as even Kakashi who apparently knew the technique refused to use it even if his life depended on it. All that said Rock Lee and I had gotten much better acquainted after I had treated him in the hospital near everyday for three months.-
Last but of course most important of all was the improvements I myself made over the last six months. My chakra projection had grown to cover an entire hand by this time which wasn't much but let me imitate the exact shape of my beasts attacking implements. For example I could create a fully solid and functional replica of Rens pincers and stinger out of chakra which made a world of difference as far as my taijutsu went. There was always a loss in efficiency with trying to copy my beasts with my human anatomy but that was minimized a good bit thanks to this.
