六十; 「accidental video post」

[The feed clicks on and shows the Wastelands. The feed plays nothing for several minutes before the sound of several poofs can be heard. Suddenly, there’s multiple Sasukes on the screen. None of them seem to notice that they’re being recorded.

Within a moment, there’s a yell and all of them just start sparring. Most have their swords drawn. Metal clashes with metal, and there’s the occasional bout of crackling lightening. Not only is Sasuke having a melee with himself, but he’s training and trying to finish his jutsu. Hitting two birds with one stone.

Maybe three, even, as he’s currently pissed off and looking to blow off steam healthily. Some Uchihas just aren’t meant to argue with one another. It fans the flames. Especially with the temperamental ones. But.

After several minutes of the melee, the occasional poof can be heard as one of the clones is defeated. Eventually, all of them are in a massive display of lightning, leaving only Sasuke on his hands and knees, panting for breath. If you look closely, not only can you spot the tall tale signs of intensive training, but you can see several burn marks on his arms. He doesn’t even seem to notice them.

But it’s the price he’s willing to pay to finish his jutsu.]


Finished...

[And with that, the feed times out.]

...And you're using it on yourself.

It's not the same thing? Your clones and yourself?

[Check it out. He's actually interested.]

Either way, it's actually effective to fight yourself?

[Change of subject, wut. He's trying to be nice. Really.]

Have you considered simply asking someone who wouldn't be "bugged"...?

If it gets to be too tiring, contact me.

[Give him a moment to distinguish real weariness from the temporary kind that comes right after a work out.]

Just how much ... chakra do those clones of yours expend?

[Video] Neji to the rescue

Shadow clones are solid replications of the person that creates them- though this can be altered through an additional technique. The clones distribute the user's chakra evenly among each, however, so it's not a technique used too often unless like Naruto, one has an extensive chakra reserve. For instance, creating only one will rob the user of half the original amount they had to begin with.

As well, they can absorb damage, but it's not a significant amount and are quickly dispersed. The technique, on a basic level, is used mainly as a distracting deception in most instances, but they can be used like this as well: performing the same technique, transmitting information back to the original as they disperse for several different yet similar experiences.

It's clever, admittedly, and I've not seen them used that way before now.

[Video] Hitsu was not expecting that.

[identity profile] iceandivory.livejournal.com 2009-10-27 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. Then the consciousness is shared, but there's a distinction between clone and original.

[Video] And he's not expecting this kid to jump in, is he?

[identity profile] theninetails.livejournal.com 2009-10-27 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
Nah. At least not in my case, because I've got the chakra t'keep 'em goin'.

I needed two hundred of 'em t'complete the rasengan. Whatever the clones learn is absorbed by the original. So he learned four times as fast. An' s'why it took so much outta him. He'll be fine with a lotta rest an' some food. We're gonna have ramen later t'celebrate.

[Video] Definitely not. :0 Could this be the start of their first civil conversation?

[identity profile] iceandivory.livejournal.com 2009-10-27 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wow. For ninja, they were sure quick to clarify exactly how their techniques worked. Not that Hitsu was complaining.]

Two hundred... [200 Narutos is a very, very scary thought. For just a second, he imagines them all hanging off of Hyourinmaru, but he quickly shakes off the image.] I see. Good.

[Video] I think it definitely could be. :0

[Naruto feels he has nothing to really worry about. It's not like he'll fight this guy seriously anyway, even if they get on each other's nerves a lot of the time. He won't do that to Sasuke.]

Yeah. But in ordinary fights I can get up to two thousand of 'em goin'. The more chakra y'have on reserve, the more clones y'can make.

... [Quietly.] M'glad he finally finished it. He's been workin' hard. Harder than he did t'learn Chidori.

[Video] It's a sign of the apocolypse.

[identity profile] iceandivory.livejournal.com 2009-10-28 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
It makes sense. The more you have to begin with, the more you're able to disburse. [So. Naruto was the Zaraki of his world, was he? What with that limitless chakra.]

...He's always working hard.

[Video] See any Horsemen yet?

[identity profile] theninetails.livejournal.com 2009-10-29 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's it. [A long pause, and then:] Believe me, I know. An' he'll keep workin' harder an' harder until he the likes of Madara can't touch 'im in a fight.

[Private//Unhackable//Video] Famine popped in for a snack earlier.

...

[Well, as long as Naruto's in a talking mood, might as well ask.]

What is Madara's connection to him? Besides being blood related.

[Private//Unhackable//Video] I saw a cloud of locusts due south from here.

....

[A huff of a heavy sigh.]

He helped Itachi murder his clan, 'ttebayo.

[Private//Unhackable//Video] Then to the north we go!

...Ah.

[And that's all he manages to say.]
Edited 2009-10-30 19:31 (UTC)

[Private//Unhackable//Video] Good thing he's wearing a jacket! xD

[identity profile] theninetails.livejournal.com 2009-10-30 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah.

Y'wanna keep 'im away from Madara. There's no love lost between 'em, but... the old bastard likes t'fuck with him. Not as much here as when I'm from at least though.

[An he goes silent.]
