Training Thread ~Private~

Haturo would make his way to the training grounds or what the locals called the 'bloody training grounds.' Known for being shrouded in a ground hugging mist that always tickled the legs of people inside the training grounds.
Today Haturo decided he would go to the training grounds to train and train. The entire day would be devoted to training. Haturo was intent on becoming a tool to the village and hopefully one day reaching a high enough rank to where he would be a great asset to the village. For this happen though, Haturo would need to advance his skills as a shinobi. He was quite skilled in his Aburame skilled techniques already, this would be what he would focus more on of today.
Today Haturo would practice the Insect Replacement Technique, which was the Aburame's more advanced and evolved version of the substitution jutsu. This technique was great when attempting to avoid damage or wanting to catch the targets off guard. The technique would switch the wielders body for bunch of the parasitic insects inside of Haturo. First Haturo would communicate with the insects living inside him in order to tell them what he was about to do.
After describing what he would do, he would reach for a kunai knife and throw it into the air above him at such an angle that when it came back down it would impale Haturo Haturo would then focus onto the timing of the technique till right before the knife made contact with Hotaru, instead of blood the insects would scatter. Shielding Hotaru from the attack, replacing his body with the bugs. It was a fairly simple jutsu and he was able to nail it on the first try. Hotaru would then sit down and ponder onto what to practice yet. Curious on what else he should focus on.

Learned: Insect Replacement Technique

After mastering the insect replacement technique, Hotaru would take a small break. Letting his beetles rest for a moment. He would sip on some water while looking at a scroll of other Aburame clan techniques. There was a vast array of them. This scroll was part of his families, his mother and father decided to let him borrow it since they felt that he was well enough skilled in the basics of the clan.
After glancing up and down at the clans techniques, he saw another off branch of a well known technique known as, Mushi Bunshin no Jutsu - Insect Clone Technique. This was the Aburame's versions of the Clone technique, instead of using chakra to create the clones, the clan's beetles that live inside of the host do so for them.
After glancing at the technique one more time, taking in the information. Hotaru would take one last sip of water and then step a couple of steps forward to give the technique a try. The max one can create at one time is three. So, Hotaru figured he'd first try for one and then two. And if he felt comfortable, three after that.

Hotaru would take a deep breath and let the bugs begin to pore out of his body and crawl all over his clothes. The bugs would then take flight in front of Hotaru, first recklessly and then would begin to form into the shape of a human being. After a second, the human being looked identical to Hotaru. One couldn't even tell that the person was constructed out of hundreds of bugs. "Neat." Hotaru would say to himself with a smile on his face.
Hotaru would soon after repeat this process with still having the one clone made. More bugs would flow out as second clone was made and eventually a third. Hotaru would then have all the clones stare at one another before they all dispersed into bugs once again. Returning to Hotaru's body.

Learned: Mushi Bunshin no Jutsu - Insect Clone Technique

"That was fairly simple." Hotaru would say to himself in a relieved voice. His training was going well today. He would lean up against a rock and look back at the scroll of Aburame technique. Two of which he saw probably had little to no stress on him one's so ever. He figured he would do them though just to get them out of the way. These techniques were, Mushi Henge no Jutsu - Insect Transformation Technique and the Insect Gathering technique. The Insect Transformation Technique was a jutsu that physically changed the users appearance so they could pose as someone else, which was a branch off of the original transformation technique.
The second technique was a simple technique that the Aburame could use to gather information when they wished to do so. The technique would call local insects towards Hotaru and he would communicate with them to gather information from them.
He would place his hand on the ground in front of him as multiple insects came to him, he would learn that the bugs were watching him train actually. Which he found some what funny. The technique was fairly easy.
The next technique, Hotaru would imagine his father as the bugs began to form around him. Within moment, Hotaru would resemble his father almost to the final detail. He could probably go home and trick his family into think he was his dad. He would then release the technique and gather his materials to return back home after a day of training.
