Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Fujin's eyes widened and a stunned expression could be seen on his face as he saw the hyena's actions. After looking at each other, every hyena nodded and looked at Fujin with a fierce expression. However, at the very next moment, every single hyena escaped in different directions as fast as they could move at the same time!

Merely in a couple of seconds, they escaped Fujin's range of sight and soon after they escaped Fujin's chakra field, leaving him standing alone with the remains of a dead hyena.

After a few seconds of disbelief, Fujin sighed and muttered, "Such shameless beasts!"

Despite what he said, he couldn't help but think that they would have been the perfect summons for him.

He looked at the dead hyena and thought, 'It looks like there are only these 16 hyenas here. The mountains shouldn't have any more hyenas. Even if they do, considering that I have killed one of them, I don't think I'd be able to sign a contract.

He sealed the dead body of the hyena in a scroll while thinking, 'In my previous life, I recall reading a lot of fantasy books that stated that eating the meat of strong beasts was very helpful for developing a stronger physique and improving aptitude or energy. I wonder if it also applies here. I know eating Kurama's meat can provide a lot of benefits. I wonder if the same also applies to summoning animals. It'd be very helpful if my flesh became as sturdy as his and my Lightning affinity improved.'

He made a hand sign and cancelled his jutsu and returned to his basement.

He left his house and went to a store from where he had previously bought recipes. The shopkeeper looked at him and politely asked, "How can I help you?"

Fujin asked, "Do you have a recipe for cooking hyenas?"

The old shopkeeper looked at Fujin with a weird expression. Fujin ignored it and asked, "Do you?"

The shopkeeper replied, "Wait a few minutes." He began searching through his records and finally found what Fujin was looking for.

After searching for the book, he returned and handed it to Fujin and said, "Surprisingly I do have one. It also involves details of how to properly clean it."

Fujin thanked the old man and paid for the book before leaving. He cleaned and prepared the hyena's flesh for a few hours before cooking some of it and storing the rest in the fridge.

As he ate, he noticed, 'Hmm, there is not much difference in taste as compared with goat meat.'

Fujin spent the next few days resting and eating the hyena's meat. However, he was disappointed as he didn't notice any change after 3 days. He thought, 'What a bummer. I haven't felt any improvement in my physique or the power of my Lightning jutsus. I guess only the flesh of tailed beasts will provide benefits.

Though it makes sense I suppose. I doubt I am the first one to eat an animal that can use chakra and an element. If it did provide any benefits, this would have been common knowledge and every clan would be procuring such meat to strengthen themselves. I'm sure summoning animals would have already gone extinct by now due to everyone's greed.'

Having had enough rest, Fujin prepared himself for another attempt to get a summon. He ate a soldier pill and used the summoning jutsu.

He disappeared from his basement. Unlike his previous three attempts where Fujin appeared a bit high in the air, this time he felt something around him. He felt a massive pressure on him and his clothes and body got wet instantly.

Fujin opened his eyes to see that he was underwater! In front of him was a giant wall or an underwater mountain! Multiple small and colorful fishes were swimming around him. Fujin immediately held his breath and cursed in his mind, 'Shit!'

He spread his chakra field to see how deep he was in the water. His chakra field spread to its max limit. Fujin's eyes widened in terror as he looked at the 'wall' in front of him! He realized, 'This isn't a hill! It's a fucking whale! A fucking 200-meter-long whale!'

Despite his chakra field spreading for 1.3-kilometers in all directions, Fujin's chakra field didn't escape the water. Realizing how bad his situation was, he immediately weaved hand signs.

As he did, he noticed another giant whale swimming towards him. The small fish that were around Fujin immediately began running away. However, the giant whale opened its mouth and a strong suction force was felt by Fujin. The water, the fish and even Fujin himself were sucked towards the whale's massive mouth!

At the last moment, Fujin disappeared and returned to his basement. He dropped to his knees and began breathing heavily as water fell from his clothes and body on the floor. After taking a few deep breaths, he sat down and muttered, "So freaking scary!"

He took deep breaths and calmed himself down and analyzed, 'No wonder so few have summons. If encounters like this one are common, then unless the summoner is a formidable ninja, surviving will be very difficult. If I had appeared there half a minute later, then I'd be sucked into the whale's mouth right when I appeared there!'

Fujin immediately began doubting himself. He thought, 'Should I still try to get a summon by myself? At the current rate, the risks of trying to get a summon seem to far outweigh the benefits of getting it. After all, this time I was sent to such depths inside the ocean. What if I am sent inside a volcano or something very poisonous?'

Fujin began weighing his options. Despite the risks, getting a summon would be incredibly helpful for him. Especially as his chakra kept growing.

He wondered, 'Should I instead try to get a summoning contract from existing summoners? But whom? Snakes and Toads will be very difficult to get as I have no contact with Jiraiya or any snake summoner. The only two who I know decently well are Renjiro and Hiruzen.

But Renjiro's sloth isn't very powerful. More importantly, he hasn't given any indication to pass me the summoning contract. As for Hiruzen, it is even more unlikely. If I could become Tsunade's student, then I could get her summons. But even that is quite improbable. Not to mention, she won't be in the village for many years.'

Fujin analyzed his options but didn't find anything promising. He sighed and decided, 'There is no option. I have to keep trying it until I am successful. However, I have to take more precautions. It'd be a waste of a life if I get attacked as soon as I go there and can't do anything to resist.'

He began planning how to defend himself properly. After forming a good enough plan, he went to the ninja weapons shop. After searching for a bit, he bought 2 metallic bracelets, 2 metal anklets, 1 metal torc, 1 metal headband and 4 flexible bands that were reinforced with metal.

He returned home and began inscribing barrier seals on each of the items he bought. When he was satisfied, he created a shadow clone. The clone began equipping the items. He put the bracelets on each of his wrists, just behind the bracers. The anklets went above his ankles while the flexible bands were put on his thighs and biceps. The remaining two went around his neck and forehead.

The clone looked at Fujin and nodded. In the next second, Fujin shot a vacuum bullet at the clone. The clone instantly made the confrontation hand seal. A barrier appeared around him. The bullet hit the barrier. The barrier stood sturdy, however, the impact of the bullet sent him backwards for a few meters.

Fujin nodded satisfactorily and asked, "Did you feel any pain?"

The clone shook his head and said, "No, but if the attack is very strong, then the momentum will be passed on to you. So be prepared for that."

Fujin nodded and dispersed the clone. The bands fell on the ground. Fujin put it on and used the summoning jutsu once again.

As soon as he appeared in the summoning area, Fujin made the confrontation hand seal. A barrier appeared around him. He immediately followed it up with the hand signs of ending the summoning jutsu and observed his surroundings. If he felt something was wrong, he would return instantly.

Fujin watched in confusion as his chakra field spread through the area. The first thing he noticed was the small hill in front of him. The bottom of the hill had an entrance like a cavern entrance. Two imposing, jagged protrusions hung in front of him, like menacing fangs, as if daring him to enter.

Suddenly, a strong wind was exhaled from the cave entrance on Fujin's barrier pushing him backwards by a few meters. His eyes widened in surprise and shock once again as his chakra field covered the 'hill' in front of him. He couldn't help but gulp his saliva and mutter, 'This world is freakishly scary!'
