" uncle teach me teach me .. " I shouted at my uncle with an excited tone as he was standing on the bark of the tree teasing me with while waving his hands at me .
I had to act like any curious kid but I could not deny that watching my physics knowledge getting overturned easily in front of my eyes was a very exciting feeling .
" haha.. you are really a kid after all ren chan . okay then now listen carefully , I will teach you the tricks .." uncle landed back on the ground and started fanning my curiosity. I was scolding him a little inside my mind because I wanted him stop teasing me and start teaching me the tricks already ..
" okay okay I'm going to start now ! well this tree walking technique has very simple concept. here , I concentrate and visualize my chakra leaving outside my body through feet . " uncle said that and did a simple hand sign .
I saw blue chakra appearing on the bottom of his feet and the coating was really thin .
" after that I just have to control the chakra output continuously to not damage the surface of the tree . " uncle stepped one feet on the tree bark but this time a crack sound was heard and a foot print was carved .
" see , this happened because the chakra amount I used was clearly too much and the technique will end up in a failure too if the chakra amount is too low . so the trick is to practice practice back to back while continuously controlling the chakra amount. after much practice , you will able to execute tree walking technique passively because your body remembers the chakra control " uncle smiled and walked back inside and started patting my head .
honestly it didnt feel that bad because I could feel the family affection from uncle . luckily uncle went away quickly before I could start getting annoyed by the childish treatment though .
" sam , I'm going to start practicing now . watch me partner ! " I said excitedly inside my mind to sam because I was too eager .
" sure thing partner !! "
I ran towards my personal room which was close to uncle's room . the wooden floor and walls were really nice change of culture .
the good thing was that my room had a small courtyard too which had a tree and small pool so I could practice both tree walking and water walking there anytime .
I quickly arrived and just glanced at my bedroom a little and dashed outside towards my courtyard. I wanted to start training already besides it was my room so I could explore a little anytime .
as expected of rich clan , the small courtyard looked beautiful . I guessed that servants of the house took care of it on daily bases . I always had appreciated beauty and hard work so I decided to reward those servants sometime.
I stood in front of the 9meters long tree and took a deep breath to concentrate well .
with my low genin level chakra control , it was child's play to guide my chakra outside of my body . I imitated uncle and did a simple hand sign while carefully imagining my body stocking to the ground .
soon when the bottom of my feet were covered with a thin coating of blue chakra, I tried to move forward on the ground . as expected , my feet were stuck on the ground so I had to exert much effort to barely move a single step forward . I was elated because this proved way easier than I had thought .
I remembered sam talking about my high potential and talent , so I decided to think so too .
for the next few minutes , I controlled the chakra amount on the bottom of my feet to see different results . when I increased the chakra amount , it took a lot of effort to move forward . when i barely released any chakra, the effort required was not much different than normally walking . like this while changing the chakra amount, I felt different results .
I felt my chakra becoming a little easy to control with practicing and this thought made me very happy . it was finally time to move from ground on to the tree now .
the whole reason I had practiced on the ground before was to gain a little confidence. I knew from my past life experiences that being nervous can lead to stupid mistakes and it's always better to have good control on your emotions . so when I stepped on the thick tree bark with my right foot , I was not nervous and did not fear failure .
I took back my foot after vaguely grasping the feel of the tree surface and started coating bottom of my feet with chakra while controlling the amount .
when I just had stepped on the bark , it cracked and i knew that i had messed up .
after that i tried more than thirty times and finally remembered the right control .
now my chakra reserves were remained less than a half after all the practicing .
so I decided to practice standing while my feet stuck on the tree surface first .
the reason being that I had to expend more chakra the more time I wanted to stick while continuously controlling the chakra amount .
I had not forgotten my main motive which was to increase chakra control with practice. so I decided to focus on that . walking on the tree could be done in the morning again when my chakra fully recovered. besides my body was only that of a child so I had already started feeling exhaustion and hunger from using my mind a lot . I really wanted to have enormous chakra pool like naruto because then I could practice much more without losing stamina ....
