Chapter 48 - Photosynthesis.

*4 Months Later*

The months passed relatively fast, during these times I was able to progress relatively quickly, clones make any kind of training easy, they facilitate it so much that is kinda unfair. I am literally able to cut years of training spamming clones.

I even spread my clones around the continent under the effects of the [Trnasformation Jutsu] for them to experience and learn different things. The most amusing one is the clone I left in the land of iron he adopted the name Jin Sakai and he's objective is to become an honorable Samurai there.

When the clone communicates with me, I always enjoy it it is like I am reading a Kurosawa movie. I can't wait to have all these memories, it is bound to be very interesting.

Another clone decided to become a bard calling himself Bilbo the Bard. After that, he proceeds to create a party worthy of a respectful RPG adventure.

There is a lot of different clones doing the most random things learning and improving themselves in the process. truly a marvelous ability.

Having said that, I never imagined in my life that I could know so much in such a short time. Having such a convenient ability permitted myself indulge in things that rely a lot on my creativity.

Thus this led me to an interesting discovery. While resting after a body training session I was simply observing a tree, thus leading me to think of a bunch of random stuff related to that. But I stopped at Photosynthesis.

What is Photosynthesis, you may ask? Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities. Thinking about it I reached an epiphany. After I evolved my body transforming it into a [Sage Body] plus my [Mokuton] I can be considered more of a plant than a human right now. So why not try to imitate this process that the plants do.

But the process was everything but easy, having trined into [Mokuton] chakra indeed gave me a more in-depth insight of plants, but it doesn't mean I am a specialist. Thus started my research and experimentation on trees.

After a lot of time trying uncountable things, I was finally able to get a clue on how to understand trees more. Simply I will become a tree.

This sounds crazy but is not as difficult as it sounds. There is a Jutsu the [Tree Fusion Jutsu] which permit myself to fuse with a tree, this was one of the first [Mokuton]Jutsu I learned. Using this Jutsu I was able to feel, observe, and analyze how a tree works, its kinks, and advantages principally its process of Photosynthesis.

It took me 3 months to be able to create a technique that imitates exactly what Photosynthesis does to a plant on my Human body, thus birthing my most new technique the [Mokuton: Photosynthesis] I know a pretty lame name but it's what I got for now.

While I was the creator of this new [Mokuton] Jutsu mastering it was a whole other thing. It took me a month to completely master it, at the start, I needed to concentrate a lot on just using it, even sometimes using Hand-signs to help me using it. But my effort was rewarded when at the end of the month I was able to passively use this Jutsu, it became second nature, like blinking or breathing something natural. the other thing that changed a lot was my food intake, now with the [Mokuton: Photosynthesis] I don't need to eat so much like before, for someone that ate the equivalent of a whole unity of food it was really blessing this Jutsu, it was becoming quite expensive all that food. The other notable change is that I am drinking a lot more water now, but for someone who can literally create water out of chakra, this is irrelevant.
