Yoriichi P.O.V
Me and my new friends sat together for the next class. Everyone was looking at us weirdly.
I got annoyed a little "What are you all looking at huh? Never seen someone make friends?Now look away from my friends and me before I gauge your eyes out."
I did it again when would I get rid of my awkward personality in front of people. I need to learn to speak with people outside my family properly soon.
Everyone looked away from us after I said so.
Daisuke Sensei entered the classroom and started the lesson.
"So I will be telling you about Fuinjutsu in today's class. You would be practicing Fuinjutsu if you choose it as a subject after your 3rd year in academy."
"Fuinjutsu are a type of jutsu that seal objects, living beings, chakra, along with a wide variety of other things within another object. Fūinjutsu can also be used to restrict movement or unseal objects either from within something or someone. Fuinjutsu can also be used to create traps and some fuinjutsu can be used as an elemental attack. Fuinjutsu is the most versatile and the most mysterious thing that a Shinobi can learn and do."
"There are different levels of Fuinjutsu mastery.
Every Fuinjutsu practitioner is called a "Fuinjutsu Expert" and they are divided into five levels.
Level ONE Fuinjutsu Experts are called "Apprentice" as they only know how to create beginner-level Seal Formulas, and they can only copy Seal Formulas and not create them.
Level TWO Fuinjutsu Experts are called "Juniors" Fuinjutsu Juniors can write all types of Seal Formulas, from Rank E to Rank C, but their success rate isn't high. They are also not capable of creating their own Sealing Formulas.They need Sealing Paper and Ink to write Sealing Formulas.
Level THREE Fuinjutsu Experts are called "Seniors" Fuinjutsu Seniors can write all types of Seal Formulas, and their success rate is average. They can create up to Rank B Sealing Formulas, and they can write seals on any type of surface, but they still need Sealing Ink. Most of the members of Uzumaki clan belongs at this stage.
Level FOUR Fuinjutsu Experts are called "Masters" Fuinjutsu Professors who can write all types of Seal Formulas, and their success rate is high. They can create up to RANK A Sealing Formulas, and they can write Sealing Formulas using only chakra. They still need Paper as a medium or any other thing like some use their own blood or body as a medium or even the enemy's body. Only the elders, S rank shinobi and some A rank Shinobi of Uzumaki clan are at this stage. They are not more than 15 fuinjutsu masters in our village.
Lastly, level FIVE Fuinjutsu Experts are called "Grandmasters" Fuinjutsu Grandmasters can do everything a Fuinjutsu Pro can do, but they can create S- rank fuinjutsu and Forbidden Sealing Formulas. Some forbidden Sealing Formulas can defy logic, and some grandmasters can write Sealing Formulas on the air. They don't need ink and paper. There are only 4 known Fuinjutsu Grandmasters in the shinobi world currently. The Uzukage, his son, his daughter Young Lady Mito Uzumaki who is in konoha and Tobirama Senju who is the younger brother of Hashirama Senju.
Now you might be thinking what if Tobirama or Young lady Mito spread the fuinjutsu secrets in Konoha. Well, they have agreed not to do so as a show of friendship and even if they do most of the shinobi can only become upto a Rank -2 fuinjutsu expert since only Uzumaki have the talent for it. Though there are always exceptions like Tobirama Senju.
Furthermore, Fuinjutsu Masters are unique and no Fuinjutsu Master is the same. Each Fuinjutsu Master specializes in one field or more, and the most common examples are Ninjutsu and Genjutsu."
Daisuke Sensei also said that to have a smooth journey in Fuinjutsu, one must have excellent chakra control which thankfully I have.
I am already a Level 2 fuinjutsu expert if you all wanted to know but by the end of the academy I will be a level 3 fuinjutsu expert .
After some time the lesson ended and it was time for taijutsu spars.
We all went to the training grounds and Daisuke Sensei called out students in a pair and they would have to have a spar. Rules of the spar was fair simple- No weapons and only taijutsu was allowed.
The first pair was a fight between a civilian ninja and a Yuki clan member and surprisingly the civilian ninja won. He was good and by that I mean real good. His fighting style was similar to the Hyuga gentle fist but instead of hitting tenketsu points he hit the weak spots of the human body and unlike Hyuga he might have used kicks and punches a little. But it was a fluent taijutsu form and he had showed good speed and strength. His name is Kiyoshi Watanabe. I should remember his name, he might just not be a cannon fodder.
The next two fights were between a member of Kurama clan and a member of Uzumaki clan.
In both of them not surprisingly kids from Uzumaki clan won. Looks like Kurama clan doesn't really focus on taijutsu.
There was no one noteworthy in the next 5 matches. In the next one though a kid from a merchant family managed to beat a kid from Uzumaki clan with pure strength.
'What does they give him to eat, that's some real strength.'
There was no finesse just pure strength to overpower his enemy. His name is Riku Hasegawa. Another one to remember.
Then there was a fight between two female girls from civilian families and it was more of a catfight then a taijutsu fight. Scratching each other with nails and pulling each other hair, It felt like I was back in highschool.
Well next battle was between Chino and another Uzumaki.

Author Notes
I might have copied the fuinjutsu idea from a novel I read. I don't remember the name but author San if you are reading his all credit belongs to you. I wanted to introduce this concept of different levels in fuinjutsu so that I can differentiate between different people who use fuinjutsu. If everyone in Uzumaki clan can do all fuinjutsu techniques upto rank S or A that would be too OP. Although level 3 is still OP but it's manageable. Another thing is I wanted to tell you what's different between different fuinjutsu levels like when would one require ink or paper.
Although there were not many fuinjutsu experts in the anime, I would classify Minato and Kushina as level 5 ,Jiraya and Orochimaru as level 4.
Also I would like to have some story ideas you want to have while Yoriichi is in the academy. Otherwise I might just do another 6-7 chapters of academy and skip to ninja killing stuff and missions.
