ナルト- 幻脅威宴 Chapter Fifteen: Lily of Many Petals Naruto Genkyouien - ナルト- 幻脅威宴 Chapter Fifteen: Lily of Many Petals With a satisfied sigh, Naruto relinquished his control over the chakra pillar. He was all smiles as he stepped out of the river, having proved that he could perform Setsuna’s exercise even on the water’s surface, while he also stood on it. Setsuna was impressed, but she was not one to show it openly. Besides, she was still a little flustered. “Wha-wha-wha-why are you smiling like that?” Naruto shrugged, his bright smile not faltering in the slightest. “Because you came. You really came.” The little Kitsune stiffened and turned away, hiding her flushed cheeks from the infuriatingly adorable brat. Did it really mean that much to him…that she was there? “O-O-Of course I came, idiot.” She argued with a pouty tone. “I promised, didn’t I? I’m a Kitsune, you know.” She does not acknowledge her human part, it seems. “Yeah, you promised.” Naruto’s smile became more serene; a reflection of his gratitude rather than his elation. “Thank you, Setsuna.” The loli wanted to bury her face in her hands. Why, oh why was she blushing like a goddamned schoolgirl? “I-I-I-It…it’s…whatever. And it’s ‘mistress’, boya.” “Of course, mistress.” She had to take a deep breath to hold back the nosebleed. “See?” Naruto called for his teacher’s attention. “Told ya I could do it on water, too.” “So-so I see…” Setsuna nodded, more to herself than to the boy approaching. She REALLY needed to settle down. “Good. I must say you pass with flying colors. It’s not often I praise a puny brat like you, so be grateful.” In just a few hours of interaction, Naruto had already gained a deep grasp of Setsuna’s language. He could appreciate the magnitude of her praise. “Thank you, Kiyoura-sama,” he responded with a slight joking tone. “Hmph.” She turned her back to Naruto, walking away as she spoke. “We have seven days, boya. Seven days to make up for the three weeks you wasted doing who-knows-what before we met.” Naruto would normally argue against that, but he really did not want to remember the time he “wasted” with Jiraiya. Then again, he learned the Summoning Technique, which allowed him to meet the Kitsune. “How much is twenty-one divided by seven, boya?” “Eh?” Surprised by the sudden math problem, Naruto winced while his gears worked. “It’s…three, right? I think it’s three. Nah, it’s definitely three…right?” Setsuna rolled her eyes. “Really, sometimes I hate myself…” She muttered. “Yes, Naruto, it’s three.” “What this means is that, every day for the next seven days, we will spent three days within my Izanami. The alternate realm exists outside of the normal time flow, so that’s not an issue. You will have some troubles at the end of every three-day cycle, but it’s nothing a strong guy like you can’t handle.” Somehow Naruto did not like the tone she used for that last sentence. “When we’re not inside the jutsu, you will continue working on the exercise.” “Eh?” A tilt of his head. “I thought I had already—” “Don’t be stupid, boy.” She turned again, so they were facing each other. “Now you have to extend your chakra without a support surface. No ground, no tree, no water, nothing. Just projecting your chakra to the air.” “Oh…” A second of thinking. “…sounds tricky.” “Not really. Chakra is weightless, so you don’t have to deal with torque. The issue is that you have to switch the way you’ve been doing it so far. Until now you have just released your chakra and controlled its motion, while you moved your arm to determine the length. The point of this new exercise is learning how to extend your chakra using only chakra control.” “So, to help you with that, I’ll give you a hint.” Setsuna’s lips curved slightly upwards. “Do you know the Eight Gates?” She asked, and she took a step closer. Naruto’s brain was forced to do some serious work yet again. “Ugh…rings a bell…” Scratch, scratch. “I’m sure there was a lengthy explanation at some point…just, where…ugh…uh?” Naruto noticed Setsuna had a book in her hands (where the hell did that come from?), and the two on the cover… “Eyebrows!” He pointed. “Fuzzy Eyebrows’ crazy Taijutsu! The Gates! And then he kicked Gaara’s ass!” His impetuous outburst faded… “And then…damn, I should stop by the hospital at some point.” “Right.” Setsuna threw Volume 10 of the “Naruto” tankoubon away. “Those Gates. Well, right now we’re only interested in one of them.” Quickly approaching him, Setsuna firmly placed her left hand on his left shoulder to prevent him from moving. Stepping around his frame, she reached for his back. “The seventh Gate, known as the Wonder Gate.” Naruto shuddered when he felt two fingers poking him. “Right here, at the tailbone.” “The function of the Eight Gates is to restrict the overall flow of chakra that can flow throughout your body. It is a very adaptable system, and one of the many self-imposed limiters every single person has. What they don’t tell you is that these eight spots are also the places where your chakra will flow the easiest through.” “Didn’t they make you hold a leaf on your forehead as a child, boya?” Memories of Iruka-sensei quickly filled the blond’s mind. “Yeah! Yes, that’s…how did you know?” Setsuna shrugged. “It’s the most basic chakra control exercise.” She stepped away from him one more time. “Do you know what part of the body is the hardest to channel chakra through?” Wave Country. “The feet!” Naruto answered with confidence, and Setsuna approved with a nod. “Because it’s the part of your body furthest from your center, and the part of your body where your pathways are the thinnest. Well, the Wonder Gate is the exact opposite. It’s one of eight spots where your chakra control can be maximized.” “Not many take advantage of it, though. It is understandable: firing jutsu from your crotch is not precisely something people find acceptable.” Naruto suddenly got a very odd image of himself firing a Pretty Beam from between his legs, shouting “FOOOOOOOO!” at the top of his lungs. “Now that’s one thing I did not need to learn.” “Too bad.” Setsuna was not remorseful in the slightest. “My point is; it should be easier to project your chakra from your tailbone than it is to do so from the palm of your hand.” Something clicked in Naruto’s brain at that. Something he was told before…many, many chapters ago… “Chakra, from there…you mean, like a—” “The truth is; our bodies’ chakra system is underdeveloped and very inefficient; inferior to humans in every way. Our tails are a different story, however. There are more pathways in a single of our tails than in a human’s entire body, and they are extremely well-developed. The only thing better would be if our tails were entirely made of chakra…which is the nine-tails’ case, in fact.” Yurimi’s words. Chapter seven. Setsuna smirked when she noticed the boy had figured it out. “There’s no point in me teaching you Kitsune Jutsu if you don’t have a tail.” It had been an odd beginning of day at the Higashiyama camping grounds. Breakfast was quieter than usual, probably because the events of last night remained fresh in everybody’s memories. How are you supposed to act when a Kyuubi from the future travels back in time to give the clan a lesson? Yuri ate in complete silence. Had it not been for Sayuri’s intervention, she would have destroyed her family in three days. That’s one hard thing to swallow. Filial loyalty was a strange thing. Looking at it from an objective point of view, the lilies have absolutely no attachment to their Matriarch. Himeyuri was the only one of Yuri’s daughters who was actually raised and taught by the Silver Lily herself. In several ways, the Matriarch was a distant figure; somebody who gave orders the rest of the lilies followed, mostly because that is what they were supposed to do. If the Matriarch commands, the lilies obey. These were the thoughts that crossed Yuri’s head while she ate. She had received Sayuri’s forgiveness. What about her daughters and granddaughters? Would they forgive her? Did she even deserve it? And why did she care so much about that, anyway? It became clear as she glanced at the girls around her. Yurina used a tissue to wipe food off her clumsy mother’s cheeks while her sister shook her head in exasperation. Yuri was not very surprised by the girls’ ability with their primary specialties. Yurina was very talented. As for Yuriyo, the Void was not particularly hard to grasp; controlling it is the matter. If Yuriyo managed to get a good grip on her powers by the time she got her third tail, preparing her for missions would be a breeze. Her Void and Spirit Jutsu, as well as her seduction skills, would make Yuriyo an excellent element for the clan in its dealings with both humans and youkai. She probably will not spend much time at the shrine after her 200th birthday. To the Matriarch’s left, Yurisa asked her daughter whether she was enjoying her meal.

  • Lord Jim, by Joseph Conrad
    Lord Jim, by Joseph Conrad AUTHOR'S NOTE When this novel first appeared in book form a notion got about that I had been bolted away with. Some reviewers maintained that the work starting as a short story had got beyond the writer's control. One or two discovered internal evidence of the fact, which seemed to amuse them. They pointed out the limitations of the narrative form. They argued that no man could have been expected to talk all that time, and other men to listen so long. It was not, they said, very credible. After thinking it over for something like sixteen years, I am not so sure about that. Men have been known, both in the tropics and in the temperate zone, to sit up half the night 'swapping yarns'. This, however, is but one yarn, yet with interruptions affording some measure of relief; and in regard to the listeners' endurance, the postulate must be accepted that the story was interesting. It is the necessary preliminary assumption. If I hadn't believed that it was interesting I could never have begun to write it. As to the mere physical possibility we all know that some speeches in Parliament have taken nearer six than three hours in delivery; whereas all that part of the book which is Marlow's narrative can be read through aloud, I should say, in less than three hours. Besides--though I have kept strictly all such insignificant details out of the tale--we may presume that there must have been refreshments on that night, a glass of mineral water of some sort to help the narrator on.

Lox Knight was kneeling over, with his hands on his knees, breathing hard. He coughed violently, a tight feeling in his chest. His opponent was slowly stirring from the ground. It wasn’t long before he would have to attack again. Lox wiped the sweat and dirt from his forehead.
