Shien Kidame was traveling toward a requested training ground. While everyone was out traveling, and the new teams were busy bolstering their own skills, he had to get stronger for the sake of showing his friends and family that he was not going to be left behind. He had already met and trained with Michirama Senju and gotten tips on how to practice with this technique.

The red haired genin had practiced in performing the technique and getting the execution and fundamentals of it down, he was able to exhale wind chakra and make a scimitar blade and other shapes of wind infused chakra on the end of kunai. Now he needed to practice using it on more than one object at once.

He was coming to the training area in a hoodie with baggy sleeves and hidden compartments used for storing kunai up the sleeve which had been modified for shuriken. He was looking to try using this technique on the fly and get it to work with short breaths rather than taking in an obvious one.

The field was littered with wooden training dummies spread out on different elevations on tiny hills and on the ground, evenly spaced out, some clustered together. All in all there were twenty dummies set up and Shien put his hands together, rubbing his palms against one another while warming himself up.

He sat down and did some stretches, reaching for his totes, twisting his back side to side while holding his left arm across his left side as far as it would go and vice versa. When he was ready, he stood up and rolled his shoulders. Time to get the hang of using it on multiple blades first.

With a flick of his left wrist he gathered five shuriken into his hand and fanned them out just a little bit before he took in a deep breath, and kneaded it into wind chakra, which he blew onto the shuriken as he threw them, the wind catching their blades and increasing their reach by three feet across on all of them. And they all flew in a uniform pattern for one straggling dummy on the end. The sound of wood being sliced clean through and the toppling down of the top half of the dummy was all the indication he needed for his efforts. Were it not for the fact that two of the shuriken he through were sent off flying as a result of the wind chakra he applied to the others, which caught all of the wind he expelled.

"Gonna be a little harder than I thought." He surmised out loud and got another set of shuriken,t his time into both hands. Three in each as he took in a breath and kneaded it around in his gut. Bringing his arms up and his hands near his face before throwing the six shuriken out in a fanned manner, targetting four of the dummies as he exhaled the wind chakra, managing to land it on all six while their range and lethality increased, slicing through the middle sections of the dummies in one clean motion.

This pattern of trying out different things would continue, moving on to targeting one dummy at a time to save the resources and keep the trees from being chopped to bits. At noon he took a break, sitting down while huffing and puffing heavily. It wasn't time to give up yet but, hey, at least he brought a lunch for himself. He pulled out some takoyaki and spring rolls with a side of water and rice, ready to chow down and get his energy back. That and he was huffing and puffing, his chest burning from all the deep brething he had been doing for the past few hours all at once.

When lunch was done, Shien cleaned up and put his hands together for the Verdant Mountain Gale, bringing all of the shuriken he had thrown out over the hours up into the air like a cloud of iron before they were brought up into his sleeves, and inserted back intot he loading mechanism of the hidden contraptions.

"Time for smaller breaths and more shuriken." He glared at the next dummy, this was the last one and it was time to get things rolling! He swung his arms up and then to his sides while throwing a volley of fifteen shuriken all at once. He even tried to use a smaller amount of breath by kneading it around faster in his gut with less air taken in. This resulted in the wind being exhaled and shoving regular shuriken into the dummy, giving it a nice iron coat.

The method was tried again and again with slight variations for hours, and the verdant mountain gale technique was used to reload whenever his surplus of a hundred shuriken for this training exercise were out of his reach. Shien was determined to succeed in this today, and it wasn't until around four in the afternoon that he found fruit for his effort.

He had taken a breath and exhaled, keeping one hand up near his mouth as a chakra conduit, the air he expelled catching the conduit and streaming off to the shuriken before they were out of the range of his breath attack, making the volley of twelve this time coated in his wind chakra, shredding into the dummy and leaving nothing but the pointed stand that it sat upon as evidence of anything having been there.

While it was a great success, he felt exhausted and sat back on the ground, thinking it was best to catch his breath again. And maybe take a nice deserved map.
