Katon:endan with Hifumi part 1

was dead-on focused on Hifumi's teachings it was connected to fire so of course he would be interested! The hand-seals were performed at a pace he was comfortable with, him training under her wing would make his seal-movement increase aswell, those weights she gave to Sojuro were a bit different than his, seemingly more hard to operate with but nonetheless his eyes were good enough to track what she formed with her hands, and with any demonstration of fireworks and flames they would also shine with excitement and mental happiness, just seeing fire molded into a beautifull fireball was enough to cheer him up from any kind of saddened emotions.

The problem with Soryen was that he never even once tried to use oil, raw-firepower is what he had great experience with compared to gooey but effective ways of amplifying his katon techniques, as instructed by his senior he would focus on controlling the flames.

The seals were formed in a slow manner, he had just gotten around to seeing them and with any beginner time was needed for him to memorize them , that probably would not be a problem because of his keen interest and passion towards the said element, after a few tries he would most likely get them down.

A large amount of air was inhaled , so much as his chest slightly resembled a baloon, he would begin to mold chakra in his stomach, once again envisioning the "flame" that helped him so in his solitary rigorous training sessions, he'd been through a lot in the quest to perfecting his own jutsu and this method of creating an imaginary flame inside his head with which he would manipulate both size and speed of his katon-based jutsu proved to be connected to his actual inner feeling of heat in his gut  and chakra control experience.

The flame was much alike a technique of his own, but it would actually seem to not be extinguished as it crashed down to the water, something to do with the oil, he would think. Regardless of that fact he'd get that feeling of the technique being ready, by copying his own technique's chakra manipulation he'd let the katon chakra travel upwards into his lungs and connect with the inhaled oxygen, a medium sized fire bullet gashed through his mouth as he leaned forward and hunched his back, head tilted towards the pond.

It flew at a speed faster than Hifumi's, pointed straight towards the pond the blazing ball would bring out small waves of water , much less than his sensei's and to top it all off the fire didn't stay above the water and float as hers did.

"Huh..?Is this because of the oil?" he'd mutter as he looked towards Hifumi, the question was retorical but he had to make sure he was correct.
