There were a set of rules needed to be followed when engaging in the art of tracking, rules which were ingrained in his head and mind from being instructed to him. This however was only one part of mastering the art, the second part was continuously honing the skill through physical practice. The most notable of these traits is the ability to remain undetectable by your target in plain sight. Kanki was forced into developing a greater understanding of how the brain and eyes work together, and by learning how to determine what a person will and won't see when looking at an area, he was capable of becoming invisible on virtually any landscape without any camouflage at all. Chakra infusion and various jutsu aided in this skill set as he remained standing completely still against a rock face, the chakra controlled through his body melding his skin into the stone itself and causing his skin to mimic the rock's texture and visual look.
The target he was tracking had been a live one, the cloaked anbu agent continued his/her movement through the landscape. Keeping his eyes on his target, his body would slowly descend into the ground as if the ground itself was made of nothing more than water. He quickly closed in to an area of interest one passed by the individual, his body rising from the ground slowly only after ensuring that his target was no longer in the area. While tracking was a skill in its own right, the ability to stalk his target while remaining hidden was a completely separate skill. The key point he remembered was that as a hunter, one could easily become the hunted if not careful so he was innately specialized in covering his own tracks during the pursuit to maximize effectiveness. Placing his palm against a rather faint impression in the ground, Kanki's eyes narrowed as he located the general direction of travel and proceeded to follow closely behind though from an angled path of interception.
Found himself attached to the ceiling, his body squatting within the natural darkness provided by the darkness of the cavern though his objective was still in sight. Kanki was not only tracking by physical evidence but utilizing trace amounts of chakra his target was leaving behind. It was another one of his skill sets that made him optimized for this particular branch. He was a sensor by natural affinity, his ability to read and resonate chakra signatures using even the smallest trace amounts of chakra residue. Shifting his body quickly through the darkness, the amount of awareness he needed to move quietly and safely was heightened and this was exactly what he had. Dropping his body from the ceiling a small kunai would be placed against his neckline as the anbu he had been tracking stood behind his body. Considering the training to be over in that Kanki failed the anbu would be surprised when Kanki's body fell into a puddle of water and suddenly wrapped around his body forming a prison of liquid. Kanki slowly melded out of the cavern wall, having tracked the man from within the wall itself using his chakra sense while a clone provided a scapegoat...
Training successful...
