"Dok dok dok dok dok —"
[break][break]
The rhythmic chopping sound resonated clearly from the kitchen. As the sun began its ascent on the horizon, casting a gentle glow through the kitchen window, it painted a luminous backdrop against Shō, who stood at the counter diligently slicing the red dates.
[break][break]
Each plump red date surrendered to the blade, cleaved in half before being tossed into a gleaming silver earthenware pot. The star ingredient of this dish was silver ear, scientifically known as Tremella Fuciformis, an edible fungus cherished by the Gure for centuries. While its flavour was subtle, its allure lay in its prized gelatinous texture and rumoured medicinal properties. Remarkably, it was not only affordable but also relatively easy to harvest, earning it the moniker of "cheap bird's nest."
[break][break]
Shō's sister, An, often puzzled over the yellowish golden hue of the silver ear, contrasting it with the snow-white wild snow fungus. She often confusingly wondered if Shō was using expired ingredients, a recurring conversation that never failed to amuse him. In reality, mature snow fungus naturally bore these golden stains, whereas pure white specimens were typically subjected to heavy sulphur fumigation. This ancient preservation method expedited drying, deterred pests, and prevented mould growth, but at the cost of compromising the herbs or fungi's potency and safety.
[break][break]
To ensure the efficacy of his creations, Shō exclusively employed snow fungus adorned with these characteristic golden hues. Interestingly, he personally harvested these fungi, as no one else bothered due to the inefficiency and high costs involved.
[break][break]
Upon completing the dessert for his family, Shō's attention was briefly diverted to an inconspicuous yet intriguing news article in the newspaper. It detailed the discovery of a captivating archipelago situated just off the southern coast of the country, currently in dire need of infrastructure development, evident by the mission advertised alongside the news. While it wasn't a high ranked mission, in fact, it seemed tailor-made for a fledgling genin, Shō decided to accept the mission as he was seeking a relaxed assignment and the prospect of travels.

After leaving a cute sticky note for his family, Shō departed from his home nestled near the northwest gate. The mission guild was conveniently situated not too far from his neighbourhood, although it still required a leisurely stroll to reach. But Shō did not seem to mind, he took the opportunity to walk at a measured pace, finding solace in the melodic symphony of birdsong and the gentle caress of the rising sun, a respite he had yearned for since returning from his gruelling field mission as a hunter-nin.
[break][break]
However, the beautiful morning walk came to an unexpected end as he suddenly found himself at his destination. Towering before him stood a substantial building, adjacent to which lay a bar-inn. At this early hour, tranquillity prevailed, but Shō knew it would gradually transform into a bustling hub of activity as the day progressed and everyone stirred for their daily toil. Shinobi like him often frequented this place, seeking missions or returning to claim rewards. While it wasn't his preferred place to hang out, Shō still came, of course, to secure the mission he noticed from the newspaper early in the morning.
[break][break]
Entering the guild, Shō wasted no time in locating the mission-related fliers he sought. It appeared that someone else had also taken an interest in the task. Fortunately, the mission required the efforts of three separate teams or individuals, alleviating any concerns about competition. Without hesitation, he tore one of the fliers from its perch and proceeded to the counter to officially accept the job. After completing the necessary registration, he exited the guild, departing from Kirigakure through the southern gate, and set out with high expectation towards the southern coast, the very place where his mission awaited fulfilment.

As Shō embarked on the next leg of his journey, he made his way to the bustling Kirigakure harbour. The salty sea breeze greeted him as he approached a modest-sized ship that would ferry him to the newfound archipelago. He could see the anticipation mirrored in the faces of his fellow passengers, a mix of experienced shinobi and labourers eager to contribute to the development of this promising land.
[break][break]
The voyage was smooth, and within a few hours, the archipelago came into view, a picturesque cluster of islands stretching out before them like jewels on the azure canvas of the sea. As the ship gently docked, Shō could feel the palpable sense of opportunity and adventure that hung in the air.
[break][break]
Stepping onto the unfamiliar soil of the archipelago, he was directed towards the mission headquarters by the harbour master. There, he met the person in charge, a seasoned administrator named Toshiko. She greeted him warmly, acknowledging the crucial role he and others like him would play in shaping the future of this paradise.
[break][break]
With a polite nod, Shō introduced himself, "I am Shō, a shinobi from Kirigakure. I've come to assist in the road construction mission." Toshiko smiled appreciatively and briefed him on the task at hand. The overall goal was constructing vital roadways connecting the islands, facilitating the transportation of resources and people. The only thing Shō had to do was clearing the path and the rest of the road construction would be done by other experts. Yes, it was just as simple as that.

Shō was eager to get started and soon found himself among a diverse group of individuals, each with their own unique skills and backgrounds, all united by the common goal of making this archipelago a thriving hub of life and commerce.
[break][break]
"It's quite the undertaking, isn't it?" one of the civilians remarked, casting a sweeping glance at the breathtaking vistas that enveloped them.
[break][break]
Shō simply nodded, his eyes shining with a sense of purpose. "Absolutely. These islands have such untapped potential."
[break][break]
Amidst the newfound companions, Shō took moments to savour the breathtaking vistas that surrounded them. The archipelago was truly a natural wonder, with lush greenery, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant flora that painted a vivid landscape. It was a stark contrast to the grey and rugged terrains he often traversed on his missions, a reminder of the diversity of the world he inhabited.
[break][break]
As plans were set in motion and discussions unfurled, the team swiftly organised themselves, allocating tasks according to each member's strengths. As mentioned earlier by Toshiko, Shō was entrusted with the pivotal role of paving the southern route, a responsibility that played harmoniously to his strengths as a seasoned shinobi. Barely able to contain his excitement, he quickly gathered the necessary tools, slinging them over his shoulder with the poised assurance of a seasoned professional. With absolute confidence, he embarked for the designated location as planned.

The saying "easier said than done" perfectly encapsulated Shō's current situation. Strength and stamina had never been his strong suit, and the relentless pounding of the hoe against the unyielding road surface was a constant reminder of his physical limitations. What had initially appeared to be a straightforward task had transformed into a gruelling trial, akin to a rigorous training regimen that pushed his endurance to its very limits.
[break][break]
"One, two, one, two..." he repeated to himself with each swing of the hoe, the rhythmic counting providing a semblance of order amidst the gruelling effort. The unyielding nature of the earth beneath him seemed to mirror his own determination. He understood that clearing the path was an essential preliminary step in the intricate process of road construction, so he had no choice but to continue working hard. This meant painstakingly removing obstructions like rocks and bushes, and sometimes trees if they were on the planned route. Tackling these trees presented a daunting challenge; it wasn't merely about cutting them down, which he could accomplish easily with ninjutsu. The true complexity lay in uprooting these giants, extracting their deeply entrenched roots from the ground, a task that demanded tenacity and sheer physical effort.
[break][break]
His body ached with each laborious movement, and sweat streamed relentlessly down his brow. Yet, he persevered. He understood the significance of his role in this collaborative endeavour. Soon, the other teams would arrive to lay down the crushed stone and gravel to form the road, and he needed to ensure that the path was cleared and ready for their subsequent tasks. But as he looked ahead, his heart sank as few towering trees blocked his route ahead. "Shit" He sighed.

Before Shō raised his axe to strike, he paused to take in the beauty of the tree before him. Its towering presence in the midst of this wide and vast field. The verdant canopy above filtered the sunlight, casting a dappled play of shadows on the green floor. Birds chirped merrily in the branches, and a gentle breeze carried with it the sweet scent of blooming flora. In that moment, Shō couldn't help but feel a pang of regret deep within him.
[break][break]
He hoped against hope that he wouldn't have to resort to chopping more of these magnificent trees. It was as if each one held a story, a history, and a place within the delicate balance of this ecosystem. He knew that his mission was essential to connect the islands and foster prosperity, but it came at a cost to this natural paradise. With a heavy heart, he raised his axe, knowing that the path of progress required sacrifices.
[break][break]
After fifteen minutes of axe swings non-stop, the tree finally yielded and crashed to the ground. Shō stood over his fallen adversary, his chest heaving with exhaustion. Yet, as he surveyed the scene, he realised the true challenge still lay ahead. The massive roots, gnarled and deeply embedded in the earth, seemed to be a huge obstacle to his progress.
[break][break]
Time was of the essence; he could ill afford to further delay the road construction. However, fatigue weighed him down. Taking a well-deserved break, Shō wiped his brow and weighed his options. Resting in the shade of another tree, he gazed at the colossal chopped tree trunk, his mind racing for a solution. Then, like a bolt of lightning, inspiration struck - Eureka!

The spark of inspiration that lit up Shō's mind was none other than the shadow clone jutsu - a technique renowned for its unparalleled utility. With a series of deft hand seals, chakra surged over his body, and in an instant, the air was filled with an hazy white smoke. As it dissipated, three additional Shō stood alongside him, each one a perfect replica.
[break][break]
What set Shadow Clones apart was their sentience and ability to make independent judgments without constant manual interference. Each clone possessed the knowledge, skills, and consciousness of the original, allowing them to perform complex tasks and contribute meaningfully to the mission. It was as if Shō had multiplied his capabilities threefold.
[break][break]
However, the jutsu came with its unique set of conditions and consequences. When a Shadow Clone was dispelled, all of its experiences, both physical and mental, flowed back to the original owner. This included the exhaustion of physical labor, the strain of chakra consumption, and the satisfaction of a job well done. The silver lining was that the training and knowledge gained by the clone were also transferred to the owner, enriching their skill set and understanding.
[break][break]
Shō was acutely aware that the Shadow Clone Jutsu required a substantial initial chakra consumption, and the original owner's chakra was evenly distributed among all the clones created. This further reduced his already limited chakra reserves. However, the upside was that when a clone was dispelled, any remaining, unused chakra flowed back to the owner, partially mitigating the cost.

Without wasting a moment, Shō and his three clones set to work. The additional hands made the difficult task of uprooting the tree and clearing the path more manageable. Yet, he couldn't help but keep a close eye on their chakra levels, including himself, knowing that pushing too far would risk exhaustion and depletion. The delicate balance between his physical endurance and chakra consumption was a tightrope he needed to navigate carefully.
[break][break]
With careful planning and the precise deployment of his clones, Shō quickly discovered that their collective efforts had significantly accelerated the pace of their work. They worked in perfect harmony, utilising their shared knowledge and skills to handle the task in front of them. The result was progress that outstripped their initial expectations; they were ahead of schedule, well on their way to completing the path.
[break][break]
However, as Shō and the other CloneShō continued his relentless pace, they began to notice an unexpected complication. The path they had so efficiently cleared was infested and disrupted by insects and critters. Burrowing insects scurried from disturbed earth, while rodents and other small creatures had made homes amid the route.
[break][break]
Shō halted his work momentarily, a furrow forming on his brow as he considered the implications. While their progress had been impressive, they now faced a new challenge. The idea of eliminating these critters was straightforward; it wouldn't be difficult. Yet, he couldn't bring himself to do it. Part of it stemmed from his kind heart, but there was also a deeper understanding at play. Wiping out these critters from the island would disrupt the delicate ecosystem in ways they couldn't fully grasp. Their exploration and urbanisation had already taken a toll on the environment, and it felt unjust to further disturb it.
[break][break]
In his mind, he was thinking how to address the disruption without further damaging the delicate balance of the ecosystem. It was a dilemma that required not only physical effort but also thoughtful consideration of the consequences of their actions on the environment he was striving to connect and preserve.

For the time being, Shō resorted to shooing the critters away while he racked his brain for ideas. However, the extensive use of shadow clones had left him feeling as though every movement he made feel laborious. Worse yet, his thoughts seemed muddled and inefficient, which would spell disaster for the mission if kept unchecked. With no other choices, Shō eventually conceded and gathered his clones together. Rather than pursuing a temporary remedy that would only yield limited results, they decided to convene and brainstorm for a more permanent solution.
[break][break]
Ten minutes of discussions passed, and despite their collective effort, they found themselves still grappling with a lack of viable ideas. Just as Shō was on the brink of giving up, one of the clones unexpectedly sparked an intriguing notion. "I wonder how our silver ear soup tastes..." the clone mused aloud.
[break][break]
Eureka! The light bulb was lightened up!.
[break][break]
"Our silver ear soup is renowned because it hasn't undergone sulphur fumigation!" Shō exclaimed with renewed enthusiasm. "And sulphur is used to deter pests. What if we burn them along the road to keep the pests at bay until the road is completed by the other team?" He voiced his idea aloud, and to his relief, all the clones readily agreed.
[break][break]
Without delay, they set out to gather sulphur from the area. As it turned out, the developers had a significant quantity of sulphur on hand, primarily for cement production and as a fertiliser. Once they had acquired enough of the materials, Shō and his clones began spreading and burning the yellow crystals along the road. Of course, they took every precaution to ensure that the controlled burning wouldn't spread and pose a risk to the environment or their mission.

As Shō and his clones diligently worked to burn the sulphur along the road, a newfound understanding settled within him. He came to comprehend why farmers sometimes resorted to such methods to grow their crops, even if they had the potential to negatively impact the environment and the quality of their harvest. The vastness of the areas they had to tend often left them with limited choices. However, he remained resolute in his commitment to personal farming, determined to harvest the finest ingredients to create the better dishes. The thought crossed his mind, making him wonder if his sister An had tasted the silver ear soup he made today.
[break][break]
With their task completed within the designated time frame, Shō dispelled his clones and took a moment to bask in the breathtaking views that surrounded him. He allowed himself to relish the sense of accomplishment and appreciation for the natural beauty around him, before walking back to the camp.
[break][break]
Upon returning to the base camp, Shō handed over the finished job to the team. He took the time to explain the solution he had devised, stressing the importance of careful monitoring. Entrusting the ongoing care of the area to those responsible, he bid heartfelt farewells to the team before turning his gaze towards Kirigakure and embarked on his journey back to the village.
