Training/Practice Area

[Naruto Uzumaki]

An open field where daily training takes place of special jutsu and techniques of the Sound Monk.

[Horoshi Mohanje]

Horoshi enters this area to find that most of the monks from many generations are fighting each other in sparring matches or training exercises.

Most are using weapons that he has not seen before while others use simple bo staffs. He watches a few as each strike and parry with man-catchers and bo staff. It seems as if the weapons of choice here are long staff like weapons and battle is fierce from both sides.

When he is noticed, the usher Horoshi to a class where everyone is doing exercises and stretches. Most of it is simple kata style so he joins doing his best to follow with each of the other students.

He is than shown to a quiet area where he is forced to meditate in silence. Before he begins this, the instructor tells him that Sound style is not a hand sign technique but a mind one and that in order to accomplish such feats as he wishes to do, his mind would need to be stronger.

Horoshi sits now focusing his mind on the power of sound waves as he is instructed. His mind goes blank as his eyes shut and is filled with the natural surroundings of the area. His breathing slows down and he goes into a calm state.

At that point, he focuses on the sounds of the wind and of the trees and even the sounds of the other monks training. Finding it difficult to focus on his task, Horoshi spends the remainder of this day in meditation and still trying to concentrate on the sounds alone as he was told to do so.

[Horoshi Mohanje]

It had been several days and Horoshi was still at it with the same routine and ending his night meditating on the mat he was provided.

After a little more than a week something in his mind opened and he could feel the power of this opening. His eyes were open in his mind yet they remained shut out the outside. He could focus and actually see everything around him.

The flow of sound coming from the warriors as they clanked staffs together, the sounds of the students in meditation including breathing. He could even see the teachers vocal patterns from the class that he was teaching. It had felt like an awakening and he was suddenly enlighten with the vibes of sound.

Focusing on narrowing everything down one voice stood out more than the rest. It was an old man who seemed to be mumbling every single day he had been meditating. Now his voice was clear. He had been telling Horoshi to focus and become one with the sound.

Now that he had been able to do this, the man was instructing him to manipulate these sound waves and use them for his own. He commanded Horoshi to build up his chakra inside him and remain focused on the sound.

Horoshi did this and allowed his chakra to bubble inside him like he was a tea pot on an open fire. The man was praising him as if he knew what he was doing. The chakra had built up strong in Horoshi and he could feel it ready to burst.

The man commanded Horoshi to call out and to think of himself in entirety as he did and if he couldn't do that to remain silent till he had himself in focus.

Horoshi listened to the man and when he felt his abilities and his own body take over his mind, the leaf genin called out a small note. This note of sound was like he had sung an all night concert as the built up chakra flowed from it.

The man told him to open his eyes and as Horoshi did, he was looking at himself. Identical in appearance and even sound as he said hello and the one in front of him repeated it.

Horoshi had created a clone of himself with just the simple sound waves that he had been spending weeks on and focusing on. It had finally struck him. The clone was made of sound waves and looked as he did. A perfect copy of him in all ways shapes and sizes.

[Horoshi Mohanje]

It had been two weeks from when Horoshi had arrived at the sound temple. His last few days were spent working on creating and perfecting the sound clone.

It had seemed that the clone was a copy of him and able to freely move much like a wood or lightning or even Shadow clone and had close to the same effect on the user though to a much less consequence with the drain of chakra at a low rate. This clone could also like the lightning when defeated send at burst of sound that would topple most men with its force and even cause a short term ringing in the ears.

As the week ended the old man was again talking to him and encouraging Horoshi to push farther into his abilities. The leaf genin again found himself meditating and focusing on his inner strength.

His mind now one with himself could focus more quickly than before and the old man was much more clear in his words. Horoshi was guided to focus and concentrate his chakra into his vocal cords. This he was warned was something that needed to be weary of as if attempted without being ready could damage the cords and never work correctly again.

He was willing to take this chance as he felt it was his special one of a kind ability. Spending four more days building and concentrating his chakra into his vocal cords while meditating he had finally fine tuned the control of his chakra flow to the vocal cords.

On the fifth day the old man stopped him and brought him to another spot in the grounds. There the man spoke directly to him. He explained that with his control of chakra it would now be able to use sound waves for his own attacks and defense.


Horoshi was instructed to open his vocal cords while his chakra was built up. On doing this he should hit high pitched notes. Horoshi acknowledged this command and with it let out his first high pitched chakra filled note.

As he did the old man set up a glass on a rock and within a second it was shattered sending glass shards flying from the spot that the glass once sat.

For the rest of the week the old man worked with Horoshi in this field as he worked to get it down and master its ability. The old man would even work on his accuracy placing glasses around in different spots and having Horoshi shatter them with his vocal notes alone.

As the week came to an end Horoshi had mastered this ability and was told that with it as a high pitched note he could do more than shatter glass. He could stun, disorient or temporarily damage hearing just by altering his note slightly.

Horoshi worked on this for the remainder of the day altering his pitch to the high notes and shattering more glass. As night came the old man explained that if he used a lower and much deeper tone that he could do even more damage than this and explained they would focus on this in the morning as his high pitch seemed to be to the point it should be with him at this point.

Happy with this new Sound Style: High Vocals Roar he eagerly went to bed looking forward for what the day would bring him in the morning.

[Horoshi Mohanje]

The next day Horoshi was anxious to meet the old man and learn more of this vocal jutsu. Instructed to follow him, Horoshi walked with the old man out of the temple and to a near by mountain where they continued to focus and work on his meditating.

When he was still focused, the man began to have him focus his chakra into the lower tones of his voice and to project them out with quick and harsh notes. Horoshi nodded and began to focus and build his chakra.

He couldn't seem to get much results and as night fell, he was instructed to meet here again tomorrow. Horoshi nodded and went off to sleep.

The next few days the leaf genin continued to work on this and focus his chakra letting it flow with his own vocal cords and notes. Within the week he had managed to send out notes of low tone that could knock away all the rocks and dirt in its path.

This deep tone sound wave was more powerful than any of his other jutsu that he had learned and he was proud of this. The old man warned him that he would need to continue to practice this and it would become much stronger as he worked on it and was able to put more chakra into it.

Horoshi spent the remainder of this and most of the next woking in this jutsu he called Sound Style:Explosive Sound wave as well as his other two jutsu and contnued to improve on each of them. Knowing that this was close to a month and he would need to head back to the leaf in order to continue in the chuin exams, Horoshi and Zonzo left the temple and headed back to the village.

Horoshi was allowed to keep his temple garb as well as his own clothes being returned to him. The boy thanked each of the monks and walked off to the village of the hidden leaf with a few new jutsu under his belt.
