S-rank
Day 8-
The sky was still black as the moon in the sky was setting in the horizon. The forest became much darker as the trees whistled with the wind and the grass swayed in the direction of where the wind blowed as Jurou walked into the windy training grounds of the small south forest, wearing a different set of clothing for his training session. Wearing a sleeveless black shirt, and some loose fitting shinobi pants, Jurou made sure he had compiled of all of his weapons together, with his wakizashi in place on his lower back side, his dagger -Aaasra Barshun- above the wakizashi sheath, and his two kunai in his jounin flak jacket pouch. Jurou needed to train to become stronger, his current strength was nothing and it felt like everyone around him was surpassing him; Kenjutsu-wise. He felt useless compared to everyone so he’d try out a new training method that he had been working on developing to help his specialty become more effective. Utilizing one more training of Kenjutsu after 5 days of it already was going to be difficult. But it was worth the difficulty if he wanted to become strong.
Training.
Simple, yet excruciating. Sounds hard, but really it's not. Still a little hard, though. Depends upon the work ethic he puts in. Jurou thought this, many times. As his father told him: "Quiet your mind; yet, calm the storm. Drown out all disturbance. Put your body in an eternal resting. Then when you are done resting, open your eyes." He remembered every word, every phrase, every sentence. His father and grandfather were true mentors when it came to Jurou's training, simply removing one's body from all else and stay in one place, relaxing the mind and stay true to what your movements predicts. The Osada were meant to be shinobi's that kept things at a mellow pace; both hot and cold (water at freezing temperature, 32 degrees Celsius.) That is why Boil Release was created, to let off steam when the emotion of anger is at a high rate. All of this talk and thinking about the past had Jurou in a state of mind; a state of mind that precedes to be stated, If you train in silence, everything will commence perfectly. That was the life lesson learn from his father and his father' father: Calm your body and free your actions.
Jurou was still thinking the same thing his father told him after the training with the clone, his father in his dream, and with Isshin. But now, he wanted to train alone this time. He wanted to master certain jutsu that were made of Kenjutsu; since having the specialization of Kenjutsu at A-rank would be good for him. He still remembered what his Grandfather told him at a young age before the massacre:
"Listen closely my boy, training with the arts of the sword is called Kenjutsu."
Grandfather went on to explain that Kenjutsu was pertaining to techniques that entail the use of swords, whether the users be shinobi or samurai. Kenjutsu can be used in combination with taijutsu, ninjutsu, chakra flow and even genjutsu in order to achieve more devastating techniques. There have been many practitioners in the arts of Kenjutsu. Jurou could only name the most important people in his village; 7 Swordsman of the Mist. There was: Zabuza Momochi, Mangetsu and Suigetsu Hozuki, and Kisame Hashigaki. Jurou wanted to be just like them, strong in Kenjutsu to where he can wield almost any sword. Time to get started with this training.
"First; practice dummies."
With that being said, Jurou concentrated his chakra into fire, the flames started to ascend upward from his feet, disappearing from the lower half of his body. As the flames reached toward his mid-section, they picked up a little speed. His body was engulfed in flames and in a matter of time as his body was fully engulfed by the flames, he disappeared from sight. In a matter of seconds, Jurou reappeared into the Small South Forest with a set of three practice dummies, good for performing one jutsu with two dummies and one jutsu with one dummy. He aligned the three dummies shoulder to shoulder but decided to separate them in faraway distances; placing one dummy on the far right, one on the far left, keeping the other dummy in the middle. Perfect. He started to visualize these dummies as clones of himself or clones of his father. Or even clones of Isshin for great practice. Sheathing his wakizashi from his lower back side, he held the handle in a reverse-hand grip but decided to do something different for a change. Putting the sword down on the ground, he closed his eyes. Utilizing the chakra and concentrating it on his legs, he felt the tingling sensation of chakra displacing in his legs. A sudden burst of chakra racing all around his legs. Picking up his wakizashi from the ground, he set his target on the first dummy up ahead; straight distance.
"Target acquired. Commence destruction."
A sudden burst of speed was initiated.It was but a blur then. He set his eyes on the dummy in a straight distance as he motioned his body upward, taking the blade of his wakizashi and slashing upward, pushing the dummy upward above him. As they both were in the air, Jurou gave the dummy nine precise, elusive slash attempts, holding his sword in a reverse hand grip as he threw his Fire Release infused right leg upward, kicking the opponent into the air. The dummy went high into the air as Jurou landed on the ground then jumped above the dummy in amazing velocity. He attempted to slice the dummy 3 more times and then finally kicking the dummy into the ground.
"Burning Ash Technique."
Jurou said the name of his techinique. Chakra swelled up inside his mouth as he released a chakra infused gun-powder from their mouth up to 11 feet from them which surrounds the region. As the gunpowder is composed entirely of ash, it stays in the air around the victim like a cloud, which can be used like a smokescreen, hindering sight up to 60%. The gun-poweder surrounded the dummy as Jurou moved his hand signals at a fast pace.
"Small Fire."
Jurou said the name of his new technique. Jurou spewed out of his mouth a small fire ball the size of a baseball. As the small fire ball raced to the gun-powder, the fire ball touches the gun-powder as the gun-powder made a huge explosion. The dummy itself was in flames to the point where it was reduced to ashes itself. Jurou was somewhat impressed to have yet another collaboration jutsu in his premises. Now to focus on the other two dummies. But that will be done on another day. Jurou landed on the ground as Void Walk was still in effect. Guess all of this training literally paid.

Description: The user spews a stream of chakra infused gun-powder from their mouth up to 11 feet from them which surrounds the region. As the gunpowder is composed entirely of ash, it stays in the air around the victim like a cloud, which can be used like a smokescreen, hindering sight up to 60%. The gunpowder cloud is moderately large as it is being 15-20 feet from the target at all points. After surrounding the enemy with the ash, the user can ignite it with a flint placed on their teeth beforehand to create a spark, resulting in a violent explosion, burning the enemy. The technique lasts 3 posts before the wind blows it away from the battle; of course unless the user ignites the gun powder. If the target is caught in the middle of the explosion there is a small chance of death, but most likely they will sustain major burns and several wounds all around their body. Any wind style jutsu involving manipulating the air can counter this technique easily. The gun-powder from this technique can also be set off via any Fire jutsu.

Description: Focusing chakra control on the legs, the ninja can make his velocity move faster and further. Void Walk is a high speed movement, going at a very fast rate, similar to a race car driving at a speed of 300 mph or even faster. It's just a quick zoom, where the shinobi can still the user moving at a high speed, where the normal eye of a civilian seems as if the user is teleporting. No smoke after the disappearance, no afterimage. Void Walk is considered a straight slide to a long distance in very high speed, then stopping when it hits multiple targets when the user of the jutsu has their mind set on what action to use next or if not planned out, the sudden burst of speed can cause the user to suffer severe injuries. Liquid on the ground can disrupt the action of the jutsu also, embedding the user to crash face first into a wall of concrete, tree, rock face, etc.
