Taijutsu Training;

[The Green Beast]

It was another bright and sunny day in Konoha. The young green jumpsuited shinobi was training in a slightly different way today. Carrying his backpack fulled with all kinds of different books inside; Physics, weaponry, fighting styles with weapons. As many as you could possible think of and that was available in the local library in Konohagakure. Studying almost everywhere, not staying stationary at a single spot for no longer than five minutes. He'd roam through the streets of Konoha while reading, being almost like Kakashi, making the entire street layout without stopping and looking where he was heading towards.

The young taijutsu specialist was making his way just on the outskirts of Konohagakure's tall huge gates. Passing by alot of people that he would normally stop and talk to, such as, Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, and any other villager that passed him by, waving and so on. Being completely distracted with his thoughts in these books. Reading out of a purple hard covered book with white lining on the edges. But the thing was, Lee wasn't studying for an exam that Maito Gai was throwing or for any school. Rock Lee was trying to further his mastery in the art of hand to hand combat.

Rock Lee knew Gai was a perfect person to teach him alot about these things, seeing he is more than a mentor, but also a worthy opponent and master. But a taijutsu master, and he knew his way around in just any style of fighting that was out right now. Although, Lee had this on the mind, he knew he was too busy to train with him. Seeing that he was a Jounin, and was on alot of hard missions with Neji and any other Jounin or Chuunin ranked Shinobi of Konoha, it forced Lee, in a way, to complete this kind of training with himself... or anyone who would dare to spar with him. Lee knew his fair share of taijutsu, and had mastered many styles, but it would not hurt him to further his horizons and truely become a master of combat.

Roaming through the tall gates of the main enterance and exit of Konoha heading towards the training grounds, hoping to find someone that might actually know a thing or two, and further his training. Maito Gai was no help to him, seeing he would be always busy with his own training and missions. Still traveling through the open pathway to the training grounds, where team 7 first had met. Aimlessly walking by fellow shinobi that were returning to Konohagakure no Sato, he had finally reached the training grounds. Lee finally glazed up with his eyes and then saw no one within the training area.

With a tweak of his hand, he closed the book gently. He placed it back into his bag, stuffing it between a nunchaku and a scroll or two. The young green jumpsuited shinobi began to continue his training with or without help. Slowly, he made his way to a training dummy, taking a deep breath before he did pre-training squats. After a few moments had passed by, he had reached 200 squats without breaking a sweat. Not soon after, he had started to punch the dummy at fast speeds, each blow denting the dummy.

"Ah! If I don't break this dummy within the next ten punches, I'm going to do five hundred laps around Konoha!"
