Fujin sat down in a meditative posture in his living room. He cleared his mind and began planning. He thought, 'The academy is finally over. Though I had to graduate 2 years early, it ain't much of an issue. The only major event that will happen anytime soon is the Uchiha massacre. But right now I am not really strong enough to even think about interfering in it. While I do have 2 years, at best, I'll only be a chuunin officially by then.'
He thought for a bit more and decided, 'Alright, I'll ignore the event. It shouldn't affect me in any way. Secondly, my strength. Right now, though experience is lacking, it won't be wrong to say that despite not having many rank C jutsus in my arsenal, my Ninjutsu is probably barely at chuunin level. The 3 months of daily sparring helped me iron out many issues in my Ninjutsu. My chakra reserves have increased rapidly too. I can now make 3 shadow clones that satisfy the requirements mentioned in the scroll. Which means that my chakra level is well into the chuunin level.
As for Taijutsu, hmm... It's a bit confusing. I'm confident that I'm stronger than most who took part in the Chuunin exam in Naruto. But I still lost to that Hyuga. If I assume that he and Hoka are already at chuunin level in terms of Taijutsu, then it'll mean that I am probably at that level too. Worst case, I'm probably at the peak of genin rank in terms of Taijutsu. I really need a better Taijutsu style. Only good thing is that my physique is very good for my age.
My Kenjutsu should be sorted when I learn Samurai Saber Techniques. So it'll be a lot more lethal than my Taijutsu, but Kenjutsu has its own weaknesses. Holding 2 swords would mean that I can't make any hand signs. And techniques like Rasengan and Wind Explosion that need hands can't be used. But I guess getting a mid-range slash might compensate for it to some degree. Anyways, I should think about it more after I learn Samurai Saber Techniques.
My capabilities as a sensor have grown too. My chakra field can now extend over 750 metres and I can do pretty much everything expected from a sensor, though I will need a few years to master all those tricks.
My current fighting ability is majorly based around 10 Ninjutsu - Body Flicker, Wind Propelling, Earth Military Movement, Shadow Clone, Wind Clone, Great Breakthrough, Wind Explosion, Gale Surge, Rock Shield and Projectile Control jutsus. Apart from that, it is heavily dependent on swords, kunais and shurikens enhanced with chakra flow. I also know Rasengan, but I haven't trained to use it in combat yet. Though I do have good ideas of using it, for the time being, I can't risk anyone knowing that I know it.
So overall, if I am willing to use everything I have to its fullest potential, then I think I'll be at chuunin level, though just barely. I'll probably be able to beat the likes of Iruka and Mizuki, but against someone stronger like Genki or even Michi, my only option would be to run away.
Speaking of escaping, with my Wind and Shadow clones, along with Body Flicker jutsu and Earth Military Movement jutsu and my ability to hide my chakra, escaping from an elite chuunin might actually be possible. Unless it is someone specialized in tracking, it shouldn't be an issue. In fact, if anyone asked me what my best skill right now is, my answer would definitely be the art of escaping!
As for what to do next, I need to go through section C of the library. I have to learn the rank C wind release jutsus. If any rank C earth release jutsu is handy, then I need to learn it too. Apart from that, I will need to learn one rank C Genjutsu and complete the current Fuinjutsu scroll and move on to the next one.'
He concluded, 'Hmm, that much should be enough. After that I could work on improving the jutsus I know. There's still Medical Ninjutsu that I'd like to learn, but….. sigh, I have my plate full. I'll check it sometime later.'
Satisfied with his immediate plans, he decided to start making long term plans. He thought, 'Now that I have spent almost half a decade here, I have a much better idea about this world. At the rate my physique and chakra has been growing, I'm positive that I'll reach jounin level. And if the section A of the library has good jutsus, then becoming an elite jounin shouldn't be an issue too. But, how do I step beyond elite jounin and be as strong as Kages?'
He thought long and hard about this. After half an hour, he concluded, 'Probably the easiest way I have is to learn sage mode.
The second way is learning the Eight Inner Gates. However, I'll have to create a very good relationship with Guy for him to teach me that. Not to mention, I'm not sure if merely hard work will be enough to learn it.
The third way would be to somehow get the Impure World Resurrection jutsu and create my own army of rank A and rank S dead ninjas.
The fourth way would be to get and master Flying Thunder God jutsu.
The fifth way would be to invent my own rank A and higher jutsus. Combined with high speed, enhanced strength and swordplay, it might be enough to reach that level.
Another option could be to become a Jinchuriki. However, that will put Akatsuki on my ass, not something I think I want. Though if I'm strong enough, I could still take that risk. Getting a few strong summons would help too.'
After concluding, he sighed thinking, 'Even the easiest way is crazy difficult to achieve! I really wonder if I'd be able to reach that level.' However, just then, Fujin was struck with a crazy idea.
He thought, 'That's right. I can explore that option. However, can that really be done?' He analyzed for a few minutes and thought, 'I can't say for sure. But, if I am able to pull it off, I will get the means to become incredibly strong. Not to mention, I know exactly when I'll have the right opportunity to get the resources needed for it.'
He thought a bit more to analyze everything he could and decided, 'Alright, I should definitely work towards achieving that. If it works, then entering Kage level won't be an issue. Even if it doesn't, the work done for it won't exactly be a waste!'
The idea lifted his spirits. With not much time left in the day, he decided to have his dinner and meditate before going to bed.
