[A/N : The number of wind style jutsu in canon is pitiful. Even the fillers mostly have similar variants of canon jutsu with very little change, but do the same shit. So I'll be using wind jutsu from games or even fan created ones. I'll also make up some wind jutsu at some point later in this fanfic]

On the 21st day of his vacation, Fujin made his way to the library. On the road, he thought about a lot of wind style jutsu. His thoughts were, 'Finally I'll be starting with wind release jutsu. In the series, Wind was probably the least powerful element. Though Naruto had wind nature, all he used was Rasenshuriken. Temari did have a lot of jutsu, but she used a giant fan!

Kakazu used Pressure Damage, which was very lethal. I think there was also Great Breakthrough used by Orochimaru and probably Gale Palm used by someone. And lastly, Danzo used his vacuum jutsu, which were very lethal. Sadly, other than Temari, no one else specialized in Wind jutsu. And the number of wind jutsu were very low too.

Luckily this world does have a lot more wind release jutsu. I might be able to form a comprehensive battle system through it. Last time I just read their names. This time I'll be reading their scrolls too. And then decide the set of jutsu to practice. Still I wish I could have got to read the descriptions of higher ranked wind jutsu as well. It'd have been very helpful in order to decide.

On reaching there, he went through entire sections E and D and made a list of all available wind release jutsu. They were :

Gale Jutsu (E)

Wind Clone (E)

Wind Levitation (E)

Projectile Control Jutsu (E)

Wind Retrieving Jutsu (E)

Gale Surge (D)

Breakthrough (D)

Dust Cloud (D)

Slashing Wind Skill (D)

Wind Explosion (D)

Propelling Winds (D)

The first question for Fujin was, 'Why was Wind Clone merely a rank E jutsu?'

On reading the scroll, he understood why. Wind clone was extremely simple. Elemental clones were like normal clones, just that they were made of elements. That's why they could perform attacks. They got dispelled upon getting hit. Since the material needed for a wind clone was basically the air around, it was extremely simple to make it.

However, it was still quite useful, and something he definitely was going to learn.

He continued reading the rest of the jutsu to understand what they did. He first read all the rank E jutsu. After reading them, he analyzed, 'These jutsu aren't lethal. Actually they don't have much use in battle either if compared to other jutsu, instead, I think that they are the means to improve the control of the wind element. I think they will be very important in the future when I will be learning more complex and powerful wind jutsu.

Wind Levitation is basically using winds in order to raise inanimate objects in air. The weight of the object that can be levitated and the height to which it can be carried as well as the time for which it can be levitated depends on the user's control over the wind element as well as their stamina and focus.

Projectile Control Jutsu uses Wind to control the projectiles launched around the user. So a shuriken or a thrown kunai or senbon can be manipulated to change direction with the help of winds.

Wind Retrieving Jutsu uses winds to pull objects towards the user. It's similar to Nagato's Universal Pull, except it's done with the help of winds and power depends entirely on the user.

And Gale Jutsu just creates a small windflow in a direction. It doesn't cause any harm, but has a couple of good uses. For example, it could be used to cover up any footsteps left behind, or change the direction of winds around you to restrict the directions your scent can be carried to. Besides, it probably also serves as a base to all wind jutsu that involves blowing out air.'

On concluding his analysis, he sighed thinking, 'I'll have to learn all these jutsu. Not for combat, but to improve my control over wind. That said, Wind clones, levitation, control and retrieving are excellent jutsu for pranking! I wonder if the ones who made these were pranksters or something.'

While thinking about it, an incredibly evil idea popped into Fujin's head. An idea that would have made the lives of Konoha citizens a living nightmare! He thought, 'I wonder what kind of shit Naruto would pull if he knew these 4 jutsu! He sucked as a student, maybe as a ninja too, but he was easily tier S in terms of pranks. Damn, I'm so tempted to teach him this stuff! I'd get enough content to laugh for a lifetime!'

Fujin had a laugh at that idea. Calming himself down and getting these distracted thoughts out of his mind, he started reading the rank D scrolls.

After finishing them all he concluded with a single thought, 'Damn, wind release is extremely powerful!'

That thought wasn't due to the jutsu being overpowered, but instead due to the growth potential of the wind jutsu. Some of those jutsu, if mastered, and used correctly, could end up becoming as good as rank B or even rank A jutsu.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

He then analyzed each jutsu, 'Dust Cloud jutsu is basically just a smokescreen. It should work well with me being a sensor and not needing eyesight to track the enemy. Also it is very simple, so if I have time, it's worth learning.

Slashing Wind jutsu is the one Temari spammed in the chuunin exam. While it packs good power, it requires a fan to use. It's not really my preferred weapon. So I'll probably skip this one.

Breakthrough jutsu is a powered down version of Great Breakthrough jutsu. No harm in learning it. I can later replace it with Great Breakthrough and then maybe with Pressure Damage.

Gale Surge is a defensive jutsu. The user sends the air around the user in an outward direction. It could protect me from projectiles and could also disturb the enemy's rhythm. Though its range is too short, at merely 3 metres.

Propelling Winds is a movement technique. Small blasts of winds are released from hands in order to help evade. Hmm, this jutsu is pretty simple. I am not really a fan of it, however I have some ideas in the future that could require this jutsu as the base.

Wind Explosion jutsu seems very versatile. Chakra is infused into wind, to form into a ball like Rasengan and it explodes on impact. Though it isn't as powerful as the Rasengan and only causes slight damage, it is a very interesting jutsu. I wonder if a combination of this jutsu and wind clone jutsu exists. It could make wind clones extremely lethal.'

Having analyzed all the jutsu, he had to make the tough final decision of deciding which jutsu to learn. He thought, 'All of these jutsu have good uses. However, will I be able to learn all of them?'

He was lost in his thoughts. Not able to reach a conclusion, he decided to calm himself a bit and analyzed further, 'As for how many of these jutsu I can learn, will depend on my speed of learning these jutsu. And just learning is rather pointless. I'll need to master them. For now, let's eliminate the ones I don't want to learn. It will be slashing wind jutsu.'

He sighed, 'This is the only one I don't wanna learn. I wanna learn all the other jutsus! Nevermind, let's list them in the order of importance. Rank E jutsu are important to be able to get a better control of wind nature. So they are compulsory.

Among the remaining, Wind Explosion jutsu would probably be the most useful considering its future potential. Next would be wind propelling jutsu. While it in itself ain't that good, however, if in the future, I'm able to create small blasts of wind willingly around my body to propel myself, then that might become a deadly fighting style.

Breakthrough jutsu would be next as it forms the basis of a few stronger jutsu. Also it provides an AoE option. Gale Surge and Dust Cloud will be the last ones. Gale Surge provides defense in one direction, but it is very temporary. And Dust cloud just provides cover.

I suppose that's enough calculations. I still have a few years before I may have to fight. So let's just try these jutsu. Hopefully a year will be enough for it. Next year I would like to learn a few Earth release jutsu and probably one or two Genjutsu. I suppose this year I should also start with Kenjutsu. Maybe a sword or two. They go really well with the Wind release.'

Ending his train of thoughts, he read the scroll of Wind release : Wind Clone jutsu properly. After getting the basics down, he left the library and on arriving in a secluded mini forest, started training for it.

However, what happened really surprised him. It only took him 1 try to be able to do the wind clone jutsu! He was left speechless by the ease of it.

After calming himself, he analyzed, 'The jutsu is very similar to normal clone jutsu and I have already learnt even shadow clones. Not to mention, my affinity is wind nature and I have already trained a lot to master this element. So I suppose it's no wonder I'm able to learn it in one try.

Actually, if I compare it with Itachi, then this achievement isn't much worth mentioning. He was able to do fireball jutsu, a rank C jutsu, on his first try. So it shouldn't be that big of a deal.'

He comforted himself saying, 'It's alright. This is the fruit of my hard work over the last 3 years.'

He spent the rest of the day testing the capabilities of his wind clone. Unlike Shadow Clones, it didn't transfer memories back, but it didn't require high amounts of chakra either. Since it used the air around it, Fujin guessed that this is the most chakra friendly clone jutsu. In merely a few hours, he managed to create 10 wind clones. It could do all the jutsu the main body could, except shadow clone, and would dispel on taking a hit.

After experimenting, Fujin realised that in a head on battle, Wind clones would be more effective than Shadow clones.

Many times that day, he had the thought of going back to the library and learning another jutsu. However he didn't act on that urge as it might have attracted attention. He sighed thinking, 'I should have found a way to steal those scrolls!'

After being satisfied with his progress, he returned home. On the way, he had a peculiar thought about the jutsu he had learnt so far. He thought, 'Of the six jutsu I know, 3 of them are clone jutsu!'

The next day, he read and learnt Gale Jutsu. He had to first gather the chakra and then expel it from his mouth as a gust of wind. He was able to perform it properly after a few tries. The jutsu was really harmless. When he tried it on a tree, except some old leaves falling down, it didn't cause any harm to the tree at all.

After an hour of practice, he could cover up the footsteps he left behind. Using the jutsu to change the direction of wind in a small area took a few hours to practice. Though he had no idea how successful or unsuccessful he was at covering up his scent. He decided to have an Inuzuka check it some time in the future.

The next day, he tried learning Wind Levitation jutsu. While he didn't get this one on his first try, he still managed to perform it correctly within ten minutes. He was able to levitate a leaf in air at a height of about 5 metre. It took him half an hour to do the same with a pebble.

By the end of the day, he could levitate stones with a diameter of 15 cm in at a height of 15 metres and maintain it for 78 seconds. He had read in the scroll that this jutsu could be used to lift a boulder over a hundred metres in the sky. And he guessed that even that wasn't its limit. So in the future, he could keep practicing it to his heart's content.

The next day he tried the Projectile Control jutsu. And he finally had a challenge. This jutsu needed really fine control over the wind. He created a wind clone and had it launch shurikens and tried to control it. After a few hours, he managed to change the direction of the shuriken, but he could control it.

Since the shuriken spun, he felt that it made the jutsu harder and decided to experiment with a kunai instead. It decreased the difficulty considerably and at the end of the day, he managed to maintain decent control on a thrown kunai. He practiced this jutsu for another 3 days in order to get a better hang of it. After these 4 days, he felt as if he had a better grasp on the wind element.

The following day, he tried the Wind Retrieving Jutsu. Attracting an object towards yourself by having the winds flow towards you proved to be a challenge. The wind flowing towards yourself was the first obstacle. The second was that if he was able to create a strong enough wind flow, he himself would be affected by it.

That issue made Fujin wonder if he could create wind paths around himself to perform this jutsu. He left that thought for the future. It took him 3 days to learn this jutsu and be comfortable with it. He returned the Shadow Clone scroll to Hiruzen after that.
