It went on like this for a week until we were used to chakra and could stick a leaf on our body for around half an hour. Seeing these results made fugaku impressed and then he proceeded to teach us uchiha's signature jutsu 'Fire style: Great fireball Jutsu'. It took me a few tries to perform the jutsu in satisfactory level but it took itachi only his first try.
'Maybe because of his fresh brain he can do it easily? while I'm on the other hand is living a second life and is a lot older than him. hmmm. well at least I'm still talented even if not like a fresh minded kid.' I pondered.
Just like that our Fugaku taught us as much as he could before his and mother's break ended and they left for battlefield.
In this period Mikoto also introduced us to her friend Kushina Uzumaki. She had beautiful blood red color hair, fair skin and a free spirited person who mostly only cared about ramen. Although itachi wasn't that much interested in it but that wasn't the same for me. I can learn fuin-jutsu from her freely, so why wouldn't I be interested in it. So I decided to at least learn some basic fuin-jutsu from her.
"I'm going to aunt Kushina's home, don't wait for me if I don't come back." I informed itachi who replied "Alright, be careful" after which I went to Kushina's house.
After arriving at her house, there were seals on that area which scanned me in an instant and let me in. I came to her house many times so I can come here without any trouble from the seals because Kushina changed the seals and it allows me in just like my mother Mikoto.
After knocking on the door, Kushina came out and greeted me after which she invited me in.
After Kushina gave me drink, she asked "So how are you Inako these days. I heard fugaku had been teaching you and itachi and you both are quite talented."
"Hehe, it's nothing like that, Onii-san is more talented than me though. Anyway I came here for a reason today and it's about training." I replied to her.
"Ooh and what would that be?" kushina asked curiously.
"I heard from mother that you know about seals so I want you to me how to create seals and also train me, it's not like my parents are here in the village and brother trains most of the time and it gets boring just with him. And you on the other hand always eat ramen and stay at home. So, why not teach me?" I said, well it is true, I heard mother talk about it during our training month with father.
"Hehe little girl don't you dare insult ramen. Ramen is life, dattebane." She proudly replied.
"Alright I will teach but it's call fuin-jutsu not seals, if you're going to learn from me then at least you should know basic knowledge. Hmmm, how about we start our training tomorrow. And you can call itachi as well if he agrees." Kushina said. Of course I knew it's called fuin-jutsu but I had to act like I don't know much about it.
After that our training starting, yup, itachi also joined in our training. Kushina taught me calligraphy and itachi also became interested in it and he also decided to learn fuin-jutsu from her with me.
After a week, our calligraphy was good enough to make basic seals. And Kushina starting teaching us beginners seals. We also regularly did uchiha Taijutsu training and meditation. We learned uchiha's shuriken styles and jutsu. Itachi was an exceptional talent. He learned things more faster than me many times. I wasn't that much behind from him as well.
