Shinbatsu's path. A place for training, honoring, sparing, and any other physical practice a nin may need in order to prepare for the harsh reality that was the world of ninja. This was exactly what a certain white-haired teen wanted to do. He wore a black and white haori along with a green scarf that clashed with his aquamarine eyes. A small white hilt of a kodachi could be seen poking out of the back of his uniform, and a much larger exposed katana sheath was on his back on top of it. He came with all of his equipment.
He reached an opening in shinbatsu's path, and took a deep breath. His elemental release training. He did this three times a week every week in the afternoons, usually two being crammed in the weekend. It was extra training that he had never told his friend, who was starting to become like a partner after learning under Uri's wing (Both metaphorically, and litterally), but they still had to trump one another somehow. Just as His mini-affro rocking comrade had special training with his old man Ryuichi commonly found himself doing two things for his own.
First thing was watching other shinobi train, and was more of an instructional guide than any simple tips could give. Mainly because Ryuichi held the power of the sharingan. It started with a simple test to see if he could cause gravel to shift at someone's feet by copying Eiji's doton. This test was a success causing a training dummy to be permanently shifted off-balance because of the unstable earth it stood on. This little success was enough for Ryuichi to crave more.
He wanted to master elemental release. To master manipulation of the things that composed the whole world. It was an awesome thought.
So now he stood in shinbatsu's path. No other nin currently training to spy on, meaning he could only use the second part of his training. Practical application.
Ryuichi flashed 5 hand seals, and grinned, slapping the floor. He couldn't wait to see Eiji's face when he saw..."Doton: Shinkuhōru no ken! (Sinkhole fist!)" With the command three pillars of earth shot from the level ground beneath him. Normally this jutsu was preformed to do blunt damage to a target. However, Ryuichi simply allowed for the pillars to stand straight up, twisting together to form a single pillar of stone around 40 feet around, and going high enough to see the entirety of the path.
Step one: complete. Ryuichi then allowed chakra to flow into his feet, throwing the top layer of his haori off along with his weapons to reveal a vest covered in chakra-compressed weights. Right now he was carrying an extra 20 pounds on each arm, 30 on each leg, and 80 on his vest. Before he could run up the pillar with his chakra-enhanced soles...the pillar started to collapse. Ryuichi's face went pale white as a massive rock came falling right for him. The weights wouldn't let him move fast enough to run out of the way.
This was gonna hurt.
Ryuichi regret trying to do anything beyond his much more comfortable fire-style.

I'll be solo-finishing this thread just before the week ends to use as training if no one joins by then.
