For the next couple of days, Fujin trained with Goro on Mount Muteki to improve their coordination. They first tried their moves on nearby mountains. When they got comfortable, they found nearby animals that Goro used to fight and began hunting.
Finally, the day for training Mystical Palm jutsu arrived. Fujin did his morning workout rituals and visited the hospital at noon. After asking, he entered the room where he would be taught. As soon as he did, 33 pairs of eyes landed on him.
Fujin looked around. The room was very spacious. It had a huge blackboard on the opposite side of the entry door. It also had a long but thin indoor pool in the shape of an arc and curved tables lined up along its edge. A few fish swam in it.
Fujin observed the other people in the room. He didn’t recognise any of them. But a few of them recognised Fujin as they had seen him during the chunin exams. However, before they could say anything, a bald guy entered the room and instructed loudly, “Take your seats, everyone. We don’t have any time to waste.”
Fujin and the others who were standing took a seat while observing the instructor. He was completely bald and looked quite old. Two girls in their late teens entered the room and stood behind the instructor. The instructor walked to the front of the room and began writing on the blackboard.
He said, “I am Yamanaka Yoshi. I will be teaching you the basics of Mystical Palm jutsu and guiding you until I am sure that you can perform it. The girls standing behind you are Hyuga Emi and Kurama Asuka. They are training to become medical ninjas and they will be monitoring your progress and clearing your doubts.”
He looked around the room and muttered, “Just 34 are here. Looks like 2 didn’t show up.”
He passed a sheet in the room and said, “Write your names on it. I will need it to keep track of your progress.”
He moved back to the blackboard and said, “I will first explain to you the theory behind Mystical Palm jutsu. I will also tell you the advantages and disadvantages of it and tell you when to use it and when not to use it. Pay careful attention because if you use it when you shouldn’t, you can kill your patient or force real medical nins to amputate them.”
His words made everyone in the room serious. Most of them were here because they wanted to help their teammates or themselves in case of a major injury. So worsening an injury was the last thing they would want to happen.
For the next couple of hours, Yoshi kept giving his lecture. He also cleared any doubts anyone had. Fujin paid careful attention and took some notes down alongside others in the room. When he stopped, the room sighed in relief. None of the people here were as young as Fujin. It had been years since they had to sit in the academy and hear lectures.
Yoshi said, “Now that I have explained everything to you and cleared your doubts, we will begin hands-on training. But before we begin, we will be splitting the room into two. As I had said earlier, Mystical Palm requires very precise Chakra control. So the ones who are confident in their chakra control, walk towards the tables. The others keep sitting where you are.”
Fujin was very confident in his chakra control. He got up and moved towards the tables. So did 11 other people. The two assistants also moved next to Yoshi. Hyuga Emi was holding a rather thick scroll. She laid it on the table and opened it a bit until a seal could be seen in the scroll.
Yoshi walked in front of it and made a hand sign. A fish popped up in the seal. He said, “This storage scroll has 100 storage seals with 100 injured fishes in it. We will be using them to test your jutsu.”
He extended his right hand towards the fish. Green chakra appeared on his hand and began pouring into the fish. For the next 30 seconds, the fish didn’t make any movements and kept laying as if it was dead. However, it soon began making small movements. In a minute, it jumped off the scroll and landed in the pool.
Yoshi said with a smile, “This is how you do it.”
No one in the room was surprised. After all, everyone had seen medical ninjas in action.
Yoshi said, “Though this looks simple, it will take a long time for you to learn this. You first need to develop good chakra control and you will need 4 to 6 months after that to be able to heal the fish as I did. You will require another 6 months of training to be able to use this jutsu safely on ninjas.”
His words surprised everyone in the room. Fujin thought, ‘Almost one year for just mastering this basic jutsu?’
He couldn’t help but mutter in his mind, ‘It’s just using our chakra to increase the body’s natural healing. How tough can it be?’
Yoshi noticed the looks of skepticism on most of the trainees. However, he wasn’t surprised. He scoffed in his mind, ‘It’s the same every month. They think that it is an easy jutsu that they will learn in a few days. Half of them won’t even have the patience to dedicate enough time to this jutsu to master it.’
He looked at the 12 who had claimed that they had good chakra control and said, “You try it first. Be careful about the amount of chakra you use.”
Hyuga Emi and Kurama Asuka rolled the scroll until 12 seals were visible and summoned 12 fishes. Fujin and the rest stepped forward.
Fujin observed his fish and observed, ‘This fish almost looks dead. I wonder how they put fish in such a state. The seal looks similar to the one Uchiha Sora used to store the dead body. So it should have slowed time to preserve the fish in this state.’
He extended his palm towards the fish and began releasing an extremely tiny amount of chakra. The chakra touched the body of the fish and began entering it.
Fujin frowned but stayed steady as he realized, ‘My chakra isn’t entering his body without any resistance. The fish’s body is resisting my chakra making healing tougher. In addition, if I increase power, it will probably destroy the fish’s body instead of healing it.’
Fujin kept at it while releasing chakra as slowly as he could. However, even after 3 minutes, there wasn’t any change in the fish.
In the meantime, the other 11 were also trying. In under a minute, 4 fish were burnt enough to be safe for consumption. In the next minute, another 4 were burnt alive. While the remaining 3 couldn’t insert their chakra into the fish.
Yoshi’s eyes moved on all 12 trainees before being glued to Fujin. He thought, ‘Not bad. He was able to insert some chakra into the Fish without burning it.’
Fujin’s attention was completely on the fish. He thought, ‘At this rate, I don’t think the fish will be healed today. I should increase the chakra. He did say that it will take 4 to 6 months to learn this. Burning one fish should be fine.’
Fujin slowly increased his chakra output for the next 30 seconds. As he did, he noticed that a fin moved. He immediately stopped increasing the chakra and maintained his current rate. However, in ten seconds, he noticed that the skin had begun burning. He immediately lowered his chakra output.
Yoshi’s eyes widened in surprise. He thought, ‘What chakra control! Even senior medical ninjas wouldn’t be able to control their chakra this well every time.’
Despite lowering the chakra output, the fish’s flesh was completely burnt. Fujin sighed and picked up the fish. He thought, ‘I can’t heal if it resists my chakra…’
Fujin felt someone staring at him. He looked to his right and saw Kurama Asuka staring at him. Chakra flowed through his hand as he properly cooked the fish and asked, “Are these fish safe to be eaten?”
Asuka snorted and swiped the fish off his hand and said, “You are here to learn healing and not cooking!”
Fujin sighed, ‘If I knew that there would be a 2-hour lecture, I’d have brought some snacks.’
Yoshi said, “That’s enough. Go back and sit and analyze where you went wrong.”
He looked towards the others and instructed, “Half of you come here and try healing the fish.”
Eleven people got up and went to the table while Fujin and the rest took their seats. At the same time Emi and Asuka swapped the fishes, Yoshi arrived in front of Fujin and the rest who tried healing the fish.
