Advancing One's Craft

Kiyoshi would exit his bed and head over to his workbench, it was another day which meant that he had work to do. The sun was up, had been for a while now, Kiyoshi quietly kicked himself for having slept in. There was so much that needed to be done and time was short. Looking over his crafting materials he noted that he was running low on some of the materials he uses often, but he had enough for what he had planned for now and could look into a run to the market later on after his work was done. Grabbing a unit of ebony and silk, Kiyoshi would start to work on a Headband, though unlike the village headbands this would say the name of his future business.

Smiling at the polished Ebony displaying the Kanji of Menagerie, Kiyoshi would set it down on the side of the table as he grabbed another unit of ebony and silk. He would repeat the process similarly to how he had done with the gloves before, after all, you had to walk before you could run and so repeating the same process again would allow him to see if he work was consistent or if there were flaws or other things wrong with the work he was doing. This Hitai-ate would be the exact same as the first, bearing the Kanji of Menagerie.

Crafting:

Finishing the second Hitai-ate, Kiyoshi decided it might be good to take a break from the armor crafting and try crafting something else as to not overwhelm himself with the constant armor crafting. He had done similarly with weapons whenever he was learning to craft them, so it only made sense to do the same while he was crafting armor. It just so happened that he had a recent request from a new friend, Akimitsu. It was something that he had made for a relative of his and when Akimitsu learned it was Kiyoshi that made it, he asked for the same, even bringing Kiyoshi the blueprint to the item though it was not needed. Having already made the gourd once before, Kiyoshi knew just how to replicate it again, though he would not share this fact with Akimitsu at least not yet. Grabbing the units of Senju would and some silk, Kiyoshi would get to work on making another Aburame Kikaichu Gourd.

Crafting:

With the Gourd for Akimitsu completed, Kiyoshi would move it to the side out of the way as he grabbed some Ebony and Silk to make another Hitai-ate. This was not a hard task, the etching of the Kanji would likely be the longest part of the whole ordeal, but it gave him time to think about his future plans and what he was going to do with himself when he was done working.

Crafting:

Finishing the third Hitai-ate, Kiyoshi would take the time to send Akimitsu a message via bird to come pick up the finished gourd as well as stop by the market to pick up an order that he had placed at the market to replace some materials he had been using. Once that was done, Kiyoshi would return to his work grabbing the last of the Ebony he currently had some more silk to make another headband. Considering the fact that he planned to open a shop he would eventually have employees and they would wear these as they worked, so that everyone would know about the business.

Crafting:

As he finished the fourth Hitai-ate, Kiyoshi would let out a sigh at the fact that Akimitsu had not arrived yet and so he would take his leave for the market himself. Arriving at the market, Kiyoshi didn't waste much time he wanted to get back to his crafting so he would grab the materials he came for and then head back home to continue his work. Returning to his workbench, Kiyoshi would set his new materials down in the pile of other materials as he went to work with making a Flak jacket. It was a rather simple creation not as simple as the Hitai-ate but still simple enough that it won't take long for it to be done.

Market Run:
Purchasing 16 units of Leather (200 each)
Total: 3,200 - 50% = 1,600 Cost

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would finish the Flak jacket and set it on a chest near his workbench, as he let out a small sigh. He was growing tired but there were a few more items he needed to make before he called it a day, or at least that was his hope was to be able to get them done. First thing was first, since he ended up selling the prototype injection darts to his sensei, he needed to make himself some new ones. After all he had two puppets that he made with special launchers just for these injectors, it made no sense that they remained empty when he could have them filled. The best part was that these injectors were perfect for holding any poison that he wished, well at least of his liquid poisons. He already knew what he would fill them with, but first he had to craft them.

Crafting:

Finishing the first set of Injection darts, Kiyoshi would quickly grab the materials for another set. After all he had two puppets that could each hold twenty of these darts, ten would simply not be enough. Luckily for him the crafting of these injection darts are almost like second nature to him, he could likely do it in his sleep. the Titanium making the outter shell of the dart with the polymer protecting the glass inside of it which would hold the poison. It was all coming together quite nicely.

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would waste little time moving on from the second set of Injection darts and on to the third, there was so much to get done and so little time that he would not even bother with his final inspection of the items. He was fully confident that his work was perfect as it had been on the ones before it so there was no reason for him to waste time with an inspection, instead grabbing the titanium, glass and polymer Kiyoshi would quickly begin making another set of ten darts for his puppets.

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would stand stretching his back as he finished the third set of Injection darts, still contemplating what poison he would be using for his puppets as he grabbed the same units once more to make one last set of Injection Darts. There was much to be done and the darts were just one of the many crafts he had laid out in front of himself, he needed to get them all done as quickly as possible. His mind was racing as he sat down to return to his work carefulling heating and shaping the materials to his needs.

Crafting:

Finishing the fourth set of the Injection Darts, there was only one more small project he had left to complete before he could move on to the larger items that he would be working on. Setting the ten freshly made injection darts down with the other thirty, Kiyoshi would seal them all away for the time being until he was able to fill them. Once they were all out the way, Kiyoshi would grab four units of clay. He would be making a casting mold like he had before, only this time it would be for senbon instead of Kunai, but they would operate the same helping to speed up the crafting process of the senbons. Carefully shaping the clay that would act as the mold for the Senbon, Kiyoshi would have a serious look in his eye as he concentrated on his work.

Crafting:

As soon as the first casting mold was finished, Kiyoshi would set it to the side and grab another four units of Clay as he began working on the second casting mold. He needed four all together for them to be effective, but he had to carefully shape each casting mold to ensure that they were perfect. Like with the Kunai casting mold he could not allow himself to make a mistake as that would ruin any future crafting attempts he made with the cast mold, no everything had to be exact.

Crafting:

Kiyoshi set the second casting mold next to the first and would grab a glass of water to drink before grabbing another four units of clay to make the third set. It was small tedious work, but it needed to be done and it had to be done to perfection in order for this to all be worth it. A single mistake was all that it would take to render the entire casting mold useless, which is why he moved as carefully as he did as he carved the mold of the senbons.

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would begin the fourth and final Senbon Casting Mold shortly after finishing the third, grabbing the four units of Clay as he began his work. Once again repeating the process of before with the careful shaping of the clay that would lead to the Senbon Casting mold.

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would wipe his brow has he sat the final Senbon Casting mold down, with a complete set of four they were finished, there still left the shuriken casting mold but for now he was done with the clay. Instead Kiyoshi would grab some of his flash powder and bang powder, that mixed with some piping make a perfect bomb that would be good to disorient any opponents he might encounter if the need arises. He had to be careful with his mixture, the measurements had to be just right for the flash-bang bomb. It was just a matter of applying fire and boom.

Crafting:

The young male would sit the five canisters that were now explosives together before sealing them away for storage, there would be a time when they were needed and they would be ready. For now however, Kiyoshi would continue his work. Grabbing some more pipping as well as more of his new powders, Kiyoshi would begin to make another set of his unique bombs. They weren't meant to be deadly, like some other things he has made. Meant to blind and deafen for escape or ambush, but they would serve their purpose and that's all that mattered to Kiyoshi.

Crafting:

He was slightly amazed that he was able to get out so much from his newly created powder mixture, much more than he originally thought he would. Of course he wasn't one to complain about it either, more than happy to get as much as possible out of everything he used as much as he could. All this meant was that he would have more ammo for his bomb launchers, for now he would focus on making another set of the bombs.

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would be deep in his work when he heard the buzzer go off, it would seem he was getting more popular by the day. This would make the fourth visitor he had, in as many weeks. Opening the door, Kiyoshi would find a messenger hold a small parcel as well as an envelope which he would hand over with the parcel. Signing for the parcel, Kiyoshi was going to ask what it was but the man would be gone. Shrugging Kiyoshi would shut the door and head back to his workbench to examine the parcel. Opening the envelope first his mouth would drop, inside accompanied by a written letter, Kiyoshi would see a large sum of Ryo. Shaking himself out of his stupor, Kiyoshi would read the note from the Hokage and a smile would form on his face. It seemed the Hokage was in need of something reforged into arrows, opening the parcel, Kiyoshi would see a small set of Kunai. As he pick one up he could feel his chakra weaken and dropped the Kunai, grabbing gloves he would examine the Kunai as an idea began forming in his head of how he would reforge these items. Grabbing a unit of his new meteor metal he would set to work, there were other projects that he was skipping over for this, but one does not keep a Hokage waiting. This task was now his top priority.

Messenger arrived from This Thread with 250k Ryo and 20 Chakra Draining Kunai to be reforged into Arrows

Crafting:

Kiyoshi would inspect each and every arrow as he finished them, if they had been normal arrows being used as ammunition for his puppets it might not have been such a big deal. These however were unique arrows meant for a Kage, everything had to be perfect considering he would not be able to make more. The special Kunai that had been used to create them, were all used up in the process. Setting the last arrow down, Kiyoshi would pull out a unit of clay and begin to sculpt it into the shape of Tengoku. He had only met the Hokage once during his test against Ayame, but with his memory that was enough for him to be able to remember every detail about the man's appearance.

Finished the figurine of Tengoku, Kiyoshi would set the figure on his shelf that was full of all the other figurines that he had made of all the people he had met as well as all of his puppets. Turning out the lights he would head off to bed, in the morning he would be having a meeting with the Hokage to present the man with the newly forged Arrows.
