(NSS)Chapter 22: Leaving Konoha
🕑 Added 2024-04-16 15:52:20 +0000 UTCIn fact I was pretty sure the only reason she even got hit in the first place was to try and catch me. Otherwise there was no reason why she would attack a tree like that since it served no real purpose.
"Well brat you have wasted four days of my time so how are you going to pay me back?" the blonde asked with a greedy look after the squirrel scurried off.
"I believe you are mistaken, we never discussed any plans so I wasted none of your time at all. I don't owe you anything at all." I said casually knowing damn well that she wasn't going to let it go.
"You could have shown up at any point in the last four days but instead you just watched us search for you so yes you did waste our time. Now you need to compensate us." the blonde insisted.
"Nope, if anything we are now even for what you did. So what is the plan anyways, besides you teaching me medical ninjutsu that is?" I asked changing the subject.
She looked like she wanted to argue for a moment before sighing and dropping the topic since I was sort of right to feel upset at that damn test. "I will mainly focus on hammering the knowledge you will need to learn medical ninjutsu into you but if you learn fast enough I have copied some scrolls of jutsu that you will learn. Before all that however you need to learn the shadow clone jutsu as it is an indispensable jutsu for all konoha ninja." Tsunade said seriously.
I nodded in understanding "And I assume I will be learning all of this while we are on the road?" I asked and she looked surprised.
"How did you know?" she asked confused.
"You've been antsy since I met you and regularly look towards the village gates which means you don't want to be here. I don't care why since it's got nothing to do with me but it was easy to figure out that you would want to leave as soon as possible as a result." I said honestly.
"Read like a book by a child, I really must be getting rusty." she said with a sigh.
After that just like I expected I was given a few hours to let everyone know I was leaving before it was time to set off. The gates of the village which held the word hidden on them swung open with a creak and I casually followed behind Tsunade and Shizune as we walked along the earthen path. It felt strange leaving the village like this as despite having technically left it for the nearby forest many times this was truly the first time I was actually leaving. I wasn't concerned though as this was just another oppurtunity as far as I was concerned. I quickly came to regret that thought process once we got far enough from the village.-
The land of fire was ironically enough a highly fertile and forested place so the road we took as we walked was surrounded by trees and wildlife. What it also had was bandits aplenty.
"Kill the brat and we'll have ourselves a good time with the women." A group of frankly stupid bandits in makeshift or ratty armor with terrible quality weapons walked out of the trees with vicious and lust expressions.
"You take care of these before catching up to us." Tsunade said casually before she and Shizune flickered away down the path.
"Oi the women are getting away stop them!" a brutish man yelled and I could only assume this was the leader.
I could feel me temper rising from being so easily dismissed by these scum bags and decided to fix that. Flickering towards the nearest bandit I appeared in front of the man and with no real issue tore his head off with my scorpion pincer chakra flow. The body didn't even hit the ground before the next three bandits were killed the same way. The last three bandits finally noticed that they fucked up by not taking me seriously but honestly I doubted that it would have made any difference as anyone in my previous class could have handled these thugs.-
"Now to catch up with those two." I muttered after killing the last bandit without getting even a drop of blood on me.
"That certainly didn't take you very long, have you killed bandits before?" Shizune asked surprised when I showed up.
I shook my head "Not in a real scenario like this but the academy did capture some bandits for us to get past the initial bloodletting trauma. Those bandits back there didn't even have chakra so killing them was an easy affair." I explained honestly.
"A sad reality that we subject young children to such a thing but unfortunately it is necessary." Tsunade said with a melancholic expression.
I didn't add anything to that since she wasn't wrong. That was simply how this world was for shinobi and there was little to be done about it. There was a time when the village didn't have the academy students undergo a desensitization to murder but those same students had the highest casualty rate during missions so that flaw was fixed. We were literally taught to fight and kill our opponents at this point alongside the other topics we were supposed to know.-
After a few hours we reached a small town and booked a room at the inn while getting some strange looks. There was two beds and three people after all and we weren't all the same gender. We did this at my suggestion since I didn't need a bed since I could just sleep on Ren instead. My new sensei was more than happy to save the money an extra room would cost but warned me there would be serious consequences if I tried any funny business.-
Jokes on her though as I summoned Ren and went straight to bed after dinner without even sparing her or Shizune a glance. Women are vain creatures though and don't take it well when you show a lack of interest. Shizune didn't seem to mind but Tsunade was not in a good mood in the morning.
"POOF!"
A cloud of smoke appeared as she retrieved a huge pile of books, scrolls and ledgers from a storage scroll she had in the morning. She then showed me how to use the shadow clone jutsu before telling me to memorize every word in that pile and that she'd test me in a week.-
"A weeks kinda short isn't it?" I asked in disbelief.
"I don't expect you to memorize it all in that amount of time but at least a quarter of it is entirely possible if you are as much of a genius as you appear." she said with a smug grin.
'So petty!' I thought annoyed before created a shadow clone followed by another and another until the room was full of me's.
Shizune looked like she wanted to say something when she saw this but Tsunade gave her a look that stopped her.

That depends on what each clone is studying. If it is all the same thing… it would be kinda pointless, I mean you might get a little bit extra but when they are going over the material it would be like start from scratch. You might get a slightly different answer each time but overall you’re not changing that much… now if you had each clone study something different then switched them around to enhance what they know it would be a massive increase in the comprehension of the material.

I wonder, if you have multiple clones learning the same thing when they join back up, will that be like studying the material one time per clone ie multiple times or just once?
Fyhing
he would be able to infuse sage chakra into the shadow clone. what would that make? A shadow clone squared?

Yeah probably going to hurt for a little but his body will patch him right up. A little pain but the gains are huge knowledge and pissing off Tsunade (^_^)
