Turning stone to sand and sand to iron.

Yamato was back once again in a familiar place, the Stone training yard of iwa. He has spent a lot of time here at this place and all of his memories of here is him pouring in the blood sweat and tears in order to get stronger. Reaching into his vest pocket Yamato pulled out a scroll from within, the scroll was for a Summoning contract for the warmachnia. Yamato had paid a visit to the iwatomics building earlier that day and explained to them that he had been given permission to sign the contract.

Opening up the scroll Yamato laid it down on to the ground, once he found the area to sign his name on it Yamato used a kuni to slice a small part of his thumb then signed his name on the paper. Only thing left to do now was to try and do his first summon. Placing blood on the palm of his hand Yamato did the signs for the Summoning then slammed his hand down on to the ground. He watched as a Summoning circle spread out on to the ground before a puff of smoke appeared. Once the smoke cleared there was a summon standing there, it looked very much like a human but had that mechanical look as well, honestly it looked a lot like the woman he met at the chunin exams ryuko.

" Hello I am B-001 series Bofuri. You are not lady deina so I assume your the new contract signer. I shall do my best to serve you so do call when ever you need me."

Once she said that she vanished back with a puff and was gone. That was one of who knows how many Summons this contract has.

Yamato now had a Summoning under his belt so now it was time to get to work on learning some new jutsu for his sand style. He had finally managed to get enough Stamina built up in order to begin learning the more advanced techniques of his clan, but jutsu alone was not going to make him stronger tho he had to look at it more as if they was just a extention of who he was as a ninja. Yamato started by gathering up his sand to form it into a sphere, he would then squeeze it tightly but he was having issues cause every time he tried to harden the sand up it kept breaking apart.

It seemed as if the higher ranked jutsu was gonna take a whole lot more work then the previous jutsu he learned. But that was not gonna stop him as he would do his best in order to gain more power. So Yamato would try once more to get this jutsu down, just like before Yamato would control his sand as he gathered it up in one place before he condensed it into a small sphere. Once he had that he would fire the sphere out as he watched it smash right though a Boulder Crumbling the Boulder into pieces.

Yamato could feel that his mastery and control over his sand was getting much better, the only downside to his sand at the time being would be his aim with it. Tho he knew that just like anything else in life practice makes perfect so he would just have to continue training and pushing him self harder and he would eventually get it. For the next sand jutsu Yamato looked around for something he could use a target for the sand bind coffin. As he was looking around Yamato found a nice sized Boulder he could use and it was shaped up right like a statue.

Raising his hand Yamato watched as the sand followed up into the air, concentrating Yamato fired the sand forward as he attempted to strike the stone Pillar. " Damn that was close." Yamato said to him self as the sand missed the stone Pillar. Raising his hand once more Yamato fired the sand forwards once more and this time the sand wrapped around the stone Pillar. " Sand binding coffin" Yamato would say as he clinched his hand into a fist, as he did he watched as the Boulder that was shaped like a stone Pillar cumble into pieces.

Yamato had a good base of earth wind and sand style techniques under his belt but there was a jutsu in which he needed to learn that was essential to all ninja and that was the shadow clone jutsu. From what he understood the shadow clone jutsu worked just like the normal clone jutsu but the shadow clone jutsu allowed the clone to fight and perform jutsu them selfs. This could really come in hand if he needed it so Yamato decided that it would be a good idea to learn that jutsu.

First off Yamato gathered up the amount of chakra that he would need to preform the jutsu. " Shadow clone jutsu" As Yamato tried to use the shadow clone jutsu a puff of smoke appeared beside of him and his clone was sprawled out on the ground. The clone vanished into a puff of smoke seconds later and as it did Yamato went though his head to Try and figue out what had went wrong. After a while of figuring it out Yamato tried the jutsu once more. " Shadow clone jutsu" This time around Yamato was actually able to create a solid shadow clone that looked just like him self.

Yamato was steadily growing his arsenal of jutsu for when he has to go fighting and for the next jutsu he was going to learn was the earth release earth style wall. The jutsu had to different methods that one can cast as he would be trying both of them just to see which way was faster. He had a few earth style jutsu already under his belt as to use his blood line one must have earth style and wind style chakra and he had both which is why he could use the sand release jutsu. But it was now time to cast the earth wall jutsu so he would begin by weaving the signs.

Tiger → Hare → Boar → Dog that was the four hand signs needed in order to activate the jutsu. First Yamato gathered the chakra up inside of his stomach then puked it up onto the ground. As the brown liquid hit the ground it suddenly sprouted up into a large earth wall. Yamato was happy he was able to get it down on the first try so now it was time to do the second method of Summoning the earth wall. Tiger → Hare → Boar → Dog. This time after weaving the hand signs Yamato would slam the palm of his hands down on to the ground channeling his chakra into the earth to create a large earth wall.

( Learned Earth Release earth style wall. B rank jutsu.)

Yamato was learning a new wind style jutsu and he had come across the perfect one, it was a air bullet jutsu like the drilling air bullet but you fire multiple air bullets. Yamato stood there as he began to gather up his chakra, Yamato would hold the bird sign and tried to fire off the air bullets but only a single air bullet fired off but even then it was not that big or powerful.

Going back to the drawing bored Yamato Kazehana began to gather up his chakra once more. He remembered how much chakra he had used last time and tried to use a little more chakra then what he had used before. Once he thought he had the right amount of chakra gathered up he would preform the bird hand sign then once he was done with that he fired off lots of air bullets which shot right though the trees and boulders. He was glad that he managed to learn the jutsu

( Learned Wind Release air bullets B rank jutsu)

Yamato was ready to learn a new summon so he was wondering just what summon was gonna appear from inside of the circle. Taking his thumb Yamato bit it making a small amount of blood, Yamato would then wipe the blood on the palm of his hand before weaving the hand signs that was needed. Once he had done that and gathered up the right amount of chakra Yamato would slam the palm of his hand down onto the ground, as he did a large circle of ruins would form then a puff of smoke would appear and from inside of that smoke a tall white metallic figure would be summoned as it was wearing a fox mask.

Once he had summoned it he seemed to have knowledge of what it was used for, this particular summon was good for helping its ninja escape from genjutsu which was good cause he was not that great at escaping his self. The summon would vanish back to its would and now it was time to find out what summon would appear next.

So far Yamato has managed to learn 2 of the summons from the iwatomics warmachnia contract and was about to learn the third one. As to what he was gonna see he was not sure until after he made the summon to basically summon the creature. So taking his thumb Yamato used his kuni to cut his finger so it could bleed a little bit, he would then make a line on the palm of his hand being weaving the hand signs for Summoning. Once he made the hand signs he charged up his charkra to at least C level before slamming the palm of his hand down onto the ground.

As he did he watched as the ruins spread out into a large circle and then a puff of smoke would appear. Once the smoke vanish a summon would stand before him. This puppet looked as if it was part of the anbu as it had on the anbu outfit and a wolf's mask, he had green hair and it seemed that this summon was good at Taijutsu which was perfect since Yamato him self was not very good at it. The summon would then vanish back to its world and so now Yamato was on to the next one.

Yamato had sweat pouring down his face as he was breathing heavy from his constant training, it felt like that was all he was doing anymore but he had to tho so that he could become as strong as he could as fast as he could. He knew that there was threats out there which was much more powerful then he was and he he wanted to make sure he was fully prepared to face what ever decided to rear there ugly heads. Yamato decided that he would switch his attention back to his earth jutsu as he seemed to have much more fun training it then even his wind jutsu, it could also be cause earth style was so similar to his sand style that it made it easier to learn.

It was now time to get started on the jutsu that he had in mind, Yamato closed his eyes and started to gather up his chakra that he would need for the jutsu. Horse → Dog → Bird → Ox → Snake. " Earth style earth and stone dragon jutsu"

After he was done Yamato felt the ground start to quake and shiver before a large stone and earth dragon that was serpent in looks raise up from the ground, Yamato could control the dragon so he caused it to rush forwards and smashed into a large Boulder as he watched the dragon demolished it into pieces.

It was time to move on to the next earth jutsu on the list the earth release barrier: earth prison of magnificent nothingness, this technique was supposed to create a dome of earth around his opponents and if you keep your hands on the dome it will continue to drain away the enemy's chakra little by little. So now it was time to give it a try, this jutsu was probably gonna be a little more complex then the one he learned before but no jutsu was gonna be easy to learn.

Yamato slowly gathered up the amount of chakra he thought he was going to need and began to Weave the necessary hand signs for the jutsu. Ox | Boar | Dragon | Horse | Tiger. Yamato would then slam the palm of his hands down onto the ground, when he did he watched as the ground tunneled forwards before it attempted to create the dome from the ground, but it seemed that something must have went wrong cause as the dome was forming it suddenly collapsed half way up. This just meant that Yamato would have to give it a second try. Ox | Boar | Dragon | Horse | Tiger. Yamato would weave the hand signs once more and slammed the palms of his hands onto the ground and watched as the ground once again tunneled forwards about 10 meters before forming the dome of earth that would become the earth prison of magnificent nothingness.

Yamato had managed to learn a good amount of jutsu while out here training which was good cause a shinobi needed to know many different kinds of jutsu if he was ever gonna win a fight. The next jutsu that Yamato was about to learn was used as a very good defense that was until he was strong enough to learn his clans sand armor jutsu. This new jutsu he was gonna learn was called earth style spear. It was supposed to cover his body with a hard skin that was even stronger then steel. The jutsu did not require hand signs either to use and if he did it was just the snake sign.

This was definitely going to be a very complex jutsu to get the hang of cause it was not just focusing a small amount of chakra in one spot then expelling the jutsu but this one required him to spread it out across a vast area which was at least 1/4th of his body. Yamato used his new shadow clone jutsu he learned earlier that day and he was gonna use him to help Yamato train the jutsu. Yamato would have the shadow clone continue punching the tsuchikage in the gut until Yamato was finally able to pull the jutsu off and harden his body.

Hours had now gone by and it was almost as if Yamato was no more there at pulling off the technique then when he first started learning it. But there was something about this next punch that the shadow clone was throwing that really made something click cause all of a sudden Yamato body from his shoulders down to his hips had turned a dark color and became so hard that when the shadow clone hit the tsuchikage it broke its hand causing it to vanish in a puff of smoke.

As Yamato stood there he wondered what jutsu he should train next. He had a list that he could train on he had wind style, earth style, he could train his Bloodline with the sand style or even yet he could always try learning a new summon. He was never sure what summon would pop up when he did it but he was always curious as to what would pop out. So that was that and Yamato decided he would learn another summon. He thought that Summoning was gonna be hard but in fact Summoning has been easier then most of the elements out in the world. So now it was time to see what summon he would acquire today.

Biting his thumb then doing the hand signs Yamato smeared the blood on to the ground, as he did a spiraling portal would open up as a pair of hands would reach up and grab a hold of the surface. The summon would then slowly climb up from out of the portal as it was now standing in front of him. The thing was big that was for sure which meant it would make for a great fighter. This was good and from the looks of it the summon had a place where the summoner could fit inside it using it like a suit of puppet armor. Once he was done the summon would vanish back to its world.

Yamato was feeling the strain of his hard days training so he decided that he would take a break from his jutsu training and take a break with some mental training by doing some meditation. He could feel that he was running low on chakra which was not surprising seeing that he had been out here now for hours training his ass off. Yamato would reach into his bag he brought along with him and pulled out a bottle of water as he slowly began drinking that down. He would have preferred to have some sake but that just made him feel weird when he was trying to train.

As he was drinking his bottle of water Yamato would reach back in to his bag that he kept his stuff in such as extra scrolls and ink and paper with a quill pin. But what he grabbed was none of that but instead grabbed some delicious oniguri that he had brought along with him in case that he got Hungary. It was actually a good thing he did cause he was starving right now. Once he finished he decided that it would probably be best to head off from the stone yard for now to tend to his kage business if he had any which seemed as if that never ended. So once he finished his rice balls Yamato stood up and headed back towards his office.
