Chapter 41 - Progress

Konohagakure no sato :

Konoha Academy :

It's been a month since the start of new academy year . The Student's of Class 4-A felt the month and the changes of it most closely.

The source of this change 

Uzumaki Naruto 

From the start of the month , everyone felt the wind blowing in different direction since the first day .

The usually boistrous and Loud Loser was silent . He didn't approach any students or shouted in everyone ears about his Hokage Dream anymore .

He didn't come late a single day this month , and there has been no prank in the academy either . The Academy has become a normal place with little kids happiness & chatter.

But The Student's of class 4-A felt everything out of place , the usual nonsense and pranks that they ignored and even laughed at , were nowhere to be seen or heard .

The Class felt out of place everyday , Not just kids but even Teachers themselves felt it too . The Class seems to be disturbed or should they say ' not their's anymore ' .

The Students felt the pressure brought by their class clown , who after just summer holidays changed so much .

And When this person who everyone thought of just loser and dead-last , became better in everything , even the class's best . That was the real blow.

No one wants someone , who was beneath them once , to get better and if that someone was the loser and also the Fox-Demon . The Parents were not happy , The Teachers with prejudice were not happy .

The Students in the class were not happy either , but they couldn't do anything but the momentum brought by the Demon , make everyone much more focused in their Shinobi training.

Iruka comes into his class after lunch , and sees everything and addresses them 

" After a month of getting things back on track , Today we will begin Taijutsu class and sparring "

Hearing the words ' spaaring ' , everyone's mood shifts excitedly and a special fire lit up in some kids hearts .

" Alright , Let's Go "

Taking everyone out of class , Iruka heads to the Training ground with bunch of kids following around . Just like any class in any world , the small groups have already formed.

Only this time there is no Fox-demon who is alone at the back of class or in the front with his usual acts to get attention .

The girls are divided by 3 groups .

Sakura around with most girls who are constantly loyal to Sasuke-kun .

Ino is among the another group with her friends talking and laughing while giggling. Hinata is with the rest ones who seems to be following silently and shyly.

The Boys group gets diversed with Sasuke going alone while some boys following him from alittle behind .

Kiba is with his 3 friends and walking excitedly while looking challengingly at a certain someone .

Last group comes with Shikamara and Choji , walking side by side , one daydreaming and other munching on something. Following behind them are Uzumaki Naruto and Aburame Shino.

Knowing today is going to be Taijutsu class and also sparring , Naruto came dressed for the occasion. Dressed in Black Track-suit with orange stripes with a swirling fire symbol on chest .

IMAGE..!!!

Naruto stood out among the kids with his shiny blonde hair who have gotton a little longer , light blue eyes and a much taller and lean frame . Stepping on the Training Ground they head the usual spar circle .

Gathering around , Iruka Sensei starts his monologue , just like any class and Our Protagonist tunes him out while thinking himself 

( Not a single skill levelled up to level 3 )

In this whole month of training , Naruto couldn't raise a single skill to level 3 , while disappointing , he cheers himself with the progress of other skills and jutsu .

( Keen eye , Avian Link and Reading Skills have all reached Level 2 )

Keen eyes is not just useful in gathering intelligence or noticing clues but also in combat together with Dynamic vision .

Level 2 Avian Link has a range of 200 meters and now there's less disorientation while sharing senses with pigeons.

Reading Skill has accelerated his momorization and even Comprehension in the textual stuff . 

The Growth skill Academy Student ( 4th year ) has also signed in , Together with Skill , it shouldn't be problem to ace both written and physical exams.

There is no new Passive skills .

As for jutsu's , Clone jutsu reached Level 2 , and he also stopped practicing in it , unless he is bored .

He has decided to first make all skills reach Level 2 , which should be the same as an Experienced Genin level for his plan . useful or not most jutsu should reach Level 2.

Rope Escape Technique and Ninja wire snake Technique have also reached level 2.

Kunai and Shuriken are still stuck at Level 2 . With focus on Kunai which is very close to level up .

( Should be there in a month )

Naruto is not focusing on medical jutsu for now that's why training for Anesthesia or Diagnosis is almost none.

( I only use them once every night before going to sleep )

Naruto remembered the progress of E-rank five elements Ninjutsu 

( All have reached Level 2 )

After training a skill to level 2 , Naruto understands that it's just not level that makes the difference but also the exp. in it.

A Level 2 skill with exp. of ( 22/100 ) is weaker than the same skill with same Level but with exp. of ( 50/100 ) .

( Having bunch of Level 2 skills , I should be a veteran Genin ....... only lacking in some Ninjutsu )

The Chakra control has also grown a lot , and Naruto has also started playing with water ballons in his bathroom.

This whole month Naruto focused on getting more studying of Fuinjutsu in the Library . This one is total self-project with only Reading Skill to help , Neither Academy Student or Medical Shinobi Genin covers this field.

( The Calligraphy Enthusiast Passive only helps in Writing ......sigh )

Naruto also acted and slowly improved his calligraphy over the days to an acceptable level of Rookie that can start Fuinjutsu .

Naruto also found 2 E-rank seals in library .

Trigger Seal and Release Seal.

Just like they sound , Boyh are connected with each other and are used for traps .

( A much more hidden traps )

Remembering Tsunade's brother Nawaki going off in fireworks in front of Orochimaru .

Naruto's thoughts gets interrupted when Shino elbows him

" Naruto "

"....huh "

" Sensei "

Looking over he saw a fuming Iruka Sensei in the sparring field And beside him Standing with clenched fiists , a Fuming Uchiha Sasuke .
