Episode 3: Getting Stronger [Training]

Roughly about three hundred pounds were now on Hyuuga Jiang’s feet. He had bought some weights earlier to help him see results during his training. He hid them skillfully beneath his robe so that no one would see them. He walked to his training grounds and closed his eyes. He had taken a break yesterday and decided to resume today. After missing the squad parings Hyuuga Jiang had a lot more training to do than everyone else. He closed his eyes as he began to focus on the tree. He could feel his chakra circulating throughout his body. Jiang opened his eyes once he felt he had gotten the right proportion of chakra to his feet. He quickly began running upright against the tree. “Focus your chakra keep it in constant proportion” It was then that Jiang’s chakra levels dropped and he was beginning to fall. He quickly pulled out a Kunai knife and slashed it against the tree. He fell to the ground and began panting as he looked up. He had gotten pretty far from where he was coming from. Jiang sighed as he knew he would need more concentration if he were to complete the exercise. He quickly got a leaf and sat down in a meditative position. He placed the leaf on his forehead and began to put chakra on it. For thirty minutes Jiang sat on the fields and focused on the leaf. During those thirty minutes the leaf did not fall to the ground.

After that Jiang decided it was time to do some more training. He had been training his chakra control like crazy but now was the perfect time to increase his abilities. Jiang knew that he was going to have to do a lot more training before he began taking on missions. Jiang refused to take on anything lower than a C-ranked mission. He took the jump rope and began to spin it around his body. His legs lightly lifted themselves from the ground as the rope past beneath his feet each time. His heart thumped with each passing jump. He began to count as he did his jump ropes, gasping for air as he did so. He finally got to the number he had so desired which was seventy-five. Jiang did not let the flow of his training stop there. He continued doing his training with some push-ups. He got to the ground and placed his hands on the ground. As his body when down his elbows went up and as Jiang came back up he made sure he lifted them off the ground and clap back down to the ground. After about Seventy-Five push-ups this style he changed his course again to keep his training successful. He began running around the training field doing laps. Now of course this was no easy task due to the one-hundred and Forty-Nine pound weights on both of his feet. His panting was even heavier as he continued his stretched. After he finished his hundred laps he fell to the ground. His hair dangled out of the rubber band that held then end of his hair. He shook it off and stood back up. He had to finish his training successfully. The perfect way to finish off every training was to stretch. Jiang did just that. He kicked his feet out and began to stretch. He sighed and said “That’s a reliever.”

Jiang sighed as he looked at the wooden doll. He had placed the Tag on the back for it so it would be able to move on his own. He sighed as he looked at the doll and asked “Are you ready to train?” The doll said no words and got in a fighting stance. Jiang got in the Jyuuken fighting stance. He had begun to learn some of it but had not fully mastered the technique yet. He was hoping that one of the elders would help him learn the technique to its fullest capabilities but that would never happen. The main branch hated them too much. Jiang sighed as he motioned for the doll to come at him. It did just that and it swung its left wooden fist at Jiang. Jiang quickly placed his right hand up to block the punch and with his left fist he would punch the doll in the chest. The doll was also as quick as Jiang though. He got up his right hand to block the attack. Jiang quickly accounted for his speed and brought his knee to the doll’s head which sent him flying upwards. Jiang jumped back and instantly concentrated a large amount of chakra to his feet which caused a burst affect and sent him flying towards the Dummy at a diagonal level. Jiang quickly began to bring chakra to the palm of his hand. He put just enough so he would be able to get a feel for the Jyuuken but not so much to where he would destroy his whole dummy. He then hit the dummy with enough force to let the Dummy simply fly across the ground on his Chakra on his own. Jiang smiled as he dropped down the ground. He looked at his weights which he was quickly getting comfortable with. They were still heavy on him but Jiang would be able to survive. He panted as he looked at the dummy that got up. He grinned as he saw the red imprint of his hand on the dummy. The dummy quickly launched himself at Jiang. He then Jumped in the air and began to do a round house kick. Jiang panicked but then brought his hands up to his guard. Jiang used that leg to jump over the dummy and grab the tag. As soon as the tag was ripped off the dummy fell to the ground. Jiang Sighed and looked at his dummy. He quickly got him together and placed him in a back. He laughed and said “That was fun. I still have more training to do though.”
