It might be a good idea to train stamina with Gai. Stamina is useful in general and it increases our chakra pool.
 
What about sparring? If we can have one clone summoned, can we spar with it? And can clones use solar abilities? I mean, clones do seem to share the single soul, given how kyuubi can manifest through shadow clones, so that should be viable. Fighting against our clone using panoptic fusion discipline (that's the one that helps with dodging, if I recall correctly) should be immensely helping.
Shadow Clones can draw from your peripheral essence pool.
I get that it may be that way for this quest (for balance reasons), but that isn't true to canon. Other people can do the shadow clone training, they just can't produce as many clones as a jinchuriki can, and thus it's less efficient/effective for them than it is for a jinchuriki. Tenten might only be able to have one clone to Naruto's several thousand. Jinchuriki's are just able to get that much more out of the training because they have so much more chakra.
I mean, on one hand Kakashi literally told Naruto exactly that as for why people don't use shadow training, it's way too inefficient to have any viable usage. On the other hand, we do see Konohamaru doing it so :V

If you guys want to cheat your way to maximum power I've already given you a way.
 
Now that we have Dipping Swallow Defense, Bulwark Stance completes the set for nullifying the Bajillion Attack Spam techniques(so Neji, pretty much any weapon user, any horde attack user, etc), Heavenly Guardian Defense for parrying the impossible to block attacks(at this stage, it's just elemental ninjutsu and Jinchuuriki attacks however)

After THAT we can start investing into Solar attacks
 
I suck at Omakes. Did draw some fanart, but for some reason Imagurl isn't letting me upload it.

Wish we could get some of those Omakers from "We stand in Awe". To come here.

I'd write one myself but alas my muse refuses to cooperate, well that and my knowledge of exalted isn't up to snuff enough to do it proper justice.

Would like to wait until we get that melee teacher.

Nah, you need Flow Like Blood too.
 
Also, might I suggest Whirling Brush Method? To help not (just) with seals, but with paperwork? Also, Courtier's Eye Technique should be damn useful for spotting spies in the crowd.

Tha path to maximum power is to make chakra storage seals and talk Naruto into sharing his chakra with us. Or a boss summon. I mean, Gamabunta explicitly gives Naruto chakra to do a joint henge in canon (because Gamabunta sucks at henge).

It is more effective to train things we have teachers for.
 
Occult will be needed for when Gaara inevitably lets Shukaku out to play.

Worst case, we can let Naruto do it as per canon. He has 3CD-equivalent inside him, after all.

Also, that's a reminder that shinobi can have outliers who reliably fuck over 3CD-equivalents (bijuu are sorta there, I think? Biju-bomb spam is kinda good take on Green Nuke of Fuck You by Ligier, for example), so we should never ever, ever underestimate how bullshit the enemies (and allies; again, Naruto) can be.
 
Wouldn't Joint-Wounding Attack be very useful against Shukaku or large summons? I mean, ok, sure, they have tons of health levels, but we could, from the looks of it, spam them into being unable to move. Also, it specifically works against undead, and one of Sarutobi's big problems when dealing with dead kages was having to immobilize them.

Yes, but we don't have a thrown teacher so we might as well train one of the cool things we do have a teacher for.

I can see it on shukaku, since he didnt heal after his limbs were cut off.

Giving everything Edo Tensei do heal from, im not so sure there. I mean it would work, yes, but maybe the crippling effect would get regenrated away too. Or not. Kinda hard to predict the interaction with solar bullshit.

How would we get into the Sarutobi fight anyway, and how would that not result in us being obliterated?
 
We could train
Cost: 3m
Mins: Athletics 1, Essence 2
Type: Reflexive
Keywords: Combo-OK
Duration: One scene
Prerequisite Charms: None

The heroes of the dawn leap with the grace of a flying crane and the speed of a striking hawk. For the rest of the scene, the character can jump with a movement action instead of a miscellaneous action, and she doubles the length of all jumps.
While this Charm is active, the character may reflexively Jump only once per action, on her action tick. This does not replace her Move actions, and she may still only Jump once per action.
With Gai. Movement is the key to ninja combat and we like to keep our distance to throw things.

Also more effective because we have a teacher.

Same question for Shukaku fight. Who, I remind people, is made out of sand. How do you cripple sand? The only way I can kinda-sorta see it is partially turning it into glass.
I may not know much about Exalted, but I believe I have answer to both those questions. It's called GLORIOUS SOLAR BULLSHIT.

But with shukaku we have seen that if you cut him, the wound stays there, for a while at least. While Edo tensei regenerate from plenty of bullshit.

I dont doubt it would weaken them. Im just worried that the crippling effect would be gone again ten seconds later.
 
@Crilltic : Why does Monkey Leap Technique not show up on available charms? In fact you seem to be avoiding about all charms we could get a teacher to help with.

Hmm.

I'm going to suggest grabbing an Athletics dot(Gai), an Athletics Excellency(Gai),Surprise Anticipation Method(Neji) an Awareness(Chakra) specialty(Neji),
Ninjutsu specialty(Sakura) Genjutsu specialty(Sakura) and Joint Wounding Attack(Alone or Gai).
If I throw my 2 XP into the plan, that should leave us with 1 slot to spend on training a jutsu.

Not sure if a genjutsu or ninjutsu would be better though.

QUESTION
Do we own a chakra blade anywhere?
I assume not because the darn things are expensive, but I want to confirm.

Konohamaru Rasengan'd a Pain. As a genin.
He's as much an aberration in his generation as Naruto is.
