ASFUCITWON Chapter 52: Type of Fuinjutsu
🕑 Added 2024-12-10 12:46:50 +0000 UTCBefore turning to leave, I kissed Reiji's forehead and gave him a gentle pat on the head as a sign of support.
"Rest well," I said as I walked away, leaving Reiji standing in place, looking calmer than before.

Time continued to pass, and it had now been a week since Reiji was no longer required to attend the Ninja Academy.
This newfound freedom gave Reiji more time to delve into his interest in Fuinjutsu.
With burning determination, Reiji began studying and practicing various sealing techniques passed down in the Uzushio Village.
In a short time, Reiji's progress surpassed what was considered normal even for the experts in the village.
Reiji spent time building a personal training space in the basement of his home—a place that had now become the center of Reiji's exploration of Fuinjutsu.
This place was not just a study area; it was a hidden fortress, surrounded by advanced seals that prevented any form of spying.
In the past week, Reiji focused his attention on Basic and Lower Level Fuinjutsu.
Reiji not only studied it but also gained a deep understanding of the underlying mechanisms of this sealing art.
For Reiji, Fuinjutsu was not just a tool, but a science that involved creativity, precision, and intuition.
Fuinjutsu is divided into three main categories: offensive, defensive, and supportive.
Reiji had made significant progress in all three.
One of Reiji's greatest achievements was the modification of Explosive Paper.
Now, Reiji was able to create paper that not only produced fire explosions but also detonated other elements—water, wind, lightning, and earth.
This experiment took four full days, with various trials to ensure its effectiveness and stability.
The next three days were spent reinforcing his training space.
The walls were now lined with complex seals that could withstand even the pressure from large explosions.
Reiji also ensured that no spies, whether human or ninja technology, could peek inside.
For Reiji, this training space was a truly safe place, where he could work without interruption or worry.
Amidst all this, a brief thought about Hagoromo crossed Reiji's mind.
Even though the old man was legendary and might still be watching from his place in another realm, Reiji didn't care.
After all, that old man was dead and would not be involved in the Ninja World.
Reiji had more important priorities to focus on: learning.
And not just learning, but an obsession that bordered on madness regarding Fuinjutsu.
In the past week, Reiji had studied this sealing art with an unusual intensity, like a maniac obsessed with perfection.
To some, Reiji's obsession might seem abnormal.
However, Reiji knew exactly the reason behind it.
Reiji was not just obsessed; he was motivated by a simple yet difficult-to-achieve desire: to live in peace.
The conflict-ridden and bloody ninja world never suited Reiji's true personality, which just wanted to relax, laze around, and enjoy time without pressure.
However, peace was a luxury that could only be attained by the strong.
Reiji understood this better than anyone, especially with the Second Ninja World War looming closer.
The combined attack from three major villages was already a frightening shadow on the horizon.
Reiji knew that if he wanted to avoid direct conflict, he had to become strong enough to not get involved.
Unfortunately, quick methods like Shadow Clone Jutsu were not an option for Reiji.
The Uzushio Village, although renowned for its sealing prowess and large chakra, did not have access to the Shadow Clone Jutsu, a forbidden technique exclusive to the Konoha Village.
This forced Reiji to rely entirely on himself, a significant challenge that he faced without complaint.
