In character it is then!
My Castiel bio (dark in sig)
--
Another letter came for Castiel it was a reminder letter that he had promised one Mr. Panthalassa some training, what Castiel wasn't aware is that he would have to travel to his old village, the village hidden in the mist. He didn't really want to since of what happened while here was there, but he soon got over it and decided to make his way there, the letter gave a meeting point.
So Castiel followed the letter completely and ended up in the right place it seems. Castiel then walks up to the man standing in front of him, the man is wearing sunglasses even though it is a gloomy sort of day. Castiel didn't think much of it.
Hello, my name is Castiel, I take it you are Mr. Panthalassa?
Castiel stood still awaiting the man's reply to his question.

Now that he taught about it, it would have been so much better to have travelled to Konoha. Then again, if his mother didn't even like Konoha and chose to become a pirate, why would he like. Not to mention he wasn't really a good ninja or an active participant of Kiri affairs, so he probably wouldn't be able to get travelling privileges.
As he thought about all this, he revered to his most relaxed stance, which basically consisted in a very serious expression, while using the pinky finger to pick his left nostril.
Hello my name is Castiel
Oh sh...
He shouted, catching himself before saying anything offensive, but not enough to prevent himself from falling from the rock he sat on. Scratching his head, he rose from behind the rock to meet his teacher.
Yes.
He coughed, resuming his very serious expression and tone of voice, and reaching his right hand to greet his sensei.
My name is Aburame Pangaea D Panthalassa.
With a quick glance at his hand, he saw there was a bug in it. He quickly shook his hand, throwing the bug away, before resuming the greeting, hoping his sensei failed to notice it.
Honoured to learn from you!

OOC: Since, MU is teaching you the summonings, when we reach those. We'll skip them, if he only teaching you summoning technique and reverse summoning. Anything else from the summoning list or no?
----
Nice to meet you, Pangaea.
Castiel then walked up to his student and begin to say.
So, ninjutsu correct? If so, let's begin with a few questions about it. Are you ready to begin?
Castiel awaits a reply before moving onto the questions.

Well, Pangaea's my father's name, you can call me Panthalassa, or you know... whatever you feel like it, I mean you are the Sensei after all...
He started, half mumbling.
That's not to say you should call me stuff like stupid or anything offensive... I mean, not that you would... I....
He lingered, mouth opened, trying to find a way to finish the discourse, but finding none.
Just... yeah, I'm ready... Ask away.
He said, as he rubbed the bridge of his nose from self-frustration.

Hmm. I didn't mean any disrespect.
Castiel said with a slight annoyed tone.
Anyway, so what can you tell me about ninjutsu, chakra, and anything else relating back to ninjutsu?

Panthalassa exhaled deeply, thanking the Sages for the change of subject. He had started on the wrong foot and needed desperately to get some points on his side. He scavenged his mind for what he had learned in the Ninja Academy, he had been there quite some time anyway.
Alright so, chakra is the vital energy of every living being. It is composed from physical energy, which is another word for stamina, and something our cells produce, and spiritual energy, which is something each of us have innately, and the main restrain on the amount of energy we can combine in order to make chakra, since, unlike physical energy, we can't train our bodies to produce more of it, and is simply something that is born with us.
Pantha then scratched his head, trying to assimilate some of the additional knowledge he had read from.
Though this is a bit more advanced, I have read that our techniques... and by ours I mean my clan's, Aburame, not ours you and me... so.. What was I saying, and yes, our techniques are tend more towards the physical side, as many are Yang in nature, dealing with the growth and vitality of our insects, which is also the nature employed in punchy stuff, and Taijutsu. This means that, the opposite, spiritual energy, should more accurately be called Yin energy, falling more on the spectrum of mind thingies and genjutsu. Ninjutsu is, essentially, a balance between Ying and Yang natures, with each possible technique and aspect falling around the middle, with slight variations as we get more specialized like with sealing stuff. Though chakra in it's pure form is neither Yin nor Yang, but both, not to say trees can use chakra to do jutsu and...what was the question again?
He then lingered a bit, he knew he was going on a tangent, but the words kept pouring. He tried to remember what he had to say but couldn't.
Right so, spiritual and physical make chakra. You then have chakra reserves that you acquired from joining both energy. Then, to use techniques, you have to concentrate your chakra, retrieve a certain amount of it, and then mould it in order to perform a jutsu, which can be done with handseals, like for basic ninjutsu, or handsealessly, which is what I'm most used to. All this process requires concentration and balance, and it's one of the reasons why each person appears to have more or less chakra than the other. There's the body train, and the spiritual potential and then the ability to pull each and correctly combine it in a balance way, then there's the process of pulling chakra, and then the process of moulding chakra, which can also waste some chakra and, which is what my insects love the most, because it means more food to them... I feel like I've been talking for quite a while now... I just... I'm going to shut up...

Now that was impressive, well done. You have explained everything even to the T.
Castiel said with a smile on his face, well he was overly impressed with his student knowledge.
Now, I want you to try a simple task of gathering up your chakra in your palm and just keep it there; it doesn't have to be any shape at all.

Oh... that might be a bit hard...
As he extends his hand and focuses chakra onto his hand, numerous bugs exude from his sleeves and form a spiral feeding on the focused chakra immediately.
Okay, shuush, not now
Panthalassa said, as he shovelled bugs after bugs with his other hand. A soon as he was able to send most of his bugs away, he quickly made a bit of chakra on his hand and, excited that he was finally able to do it without the bugs messing with it, slapped the sensei to show him his achievement.
He then looked perplexed at his failure O_O
I'm... so sorry.
And then both were covered in bugs. The perplexity maintains.

Looking at his student create the slight amount of chakra, suddenly his student's hand comes towards Castiel with the palm open, Castiel merely lifts up his left arm to block the incoming slap and then steps back one step.
Well what was that? Shouldn't go around hitting your sensei, doesn't look too good. Now with that out of the way let's begin one some of the techniques. So, what I want you to do is with that newly founded chakra, I want you to try and send it into your throat while it still collecting in your throat and when you think you have enough use shape manipulation on the chakra to form it into some very sharp needles, these are used in the way of spitting them out of your mouth, I want you to spit them at my clone, my shadow clone that will be made shortly. There is a minor issue with this technique though, it only has a reach of short range (no more then 5 meters) away from you.
Castiel then takes a breath and then starts talking again.
Once you believe you have that under the wraps, may take you a few tries, try not to cut your throat either, if you do tell me and I'll heal you...oh did I forget to mention that? Oh, right I can heal people, I am medical doctor.

The man actually had to counter Pantha's failure. What an amazing start to the training. This was going to be a long one. Pantha tried slapping himself a bit to wake up before concentrating. He tried focusing chakra in his mouth, focusing on that separation between an insect signal and the moulding of a technique. As he felt the chakra stabilize and become tangible, he gleamed, spitting the needles on the ground, without actually shooting them forward.
Sorry, that was a weird feeling.
He tried again, several times, training their position inside his mouth and moving them to his lips, where he could shoot them, including training how to shoot them efficiently without drooling.
I think I got this now, Sensei

Well done you learn the following techniques.
Do you have any questions before we proceed onto some more techniques?

I don't think so, I'm following everything well. I've been reading some of these scrolls and there are a lot of techniques that are similar. Like, a bunch of clone techniques, a bunch of transformation techniques, a bunch of weapon techniques, etc. Are they all variants of one original idea? Maybe if I learn just the basic ones, I might be able to understand the concepts of the rest of them?

With the weapon techniques, I will let you look at them all at once, if you wish? At least half of these scrolls here are weapon based ones, I'll compile them all in one scroll, how does that sound?

That does sound quite well.
Panthalassa grins, scratching his hair.
Weapon-based techniques sound really nice, and I liked this needle technique we learned. Though I think I'd also like to learn about the Transformation variants, like the combined transformation, and I have a question about the transformation I have so far. It's a bit weird but I've never been one to try it out myself. When I transform into say, an animal with claws, I find I can scratch my targets as if the claws were real. I wanted to see if I could transform into imaginary creations, like the sexy transformation variant, but instead with animals with different body parts, like a tiger with the body of a bear and claws like katana blades. I once saw a noble of the water country carry a diamond jewel and I've read all about the hardness of the mineral, could I transform into a diamond and gain it's defence properties? Or could I transform into that noble and defend myself with the diamond necklace? it was quite big.
Panthalassa pauses a bit. He knows he could just... try it himself. But these transformations just sound so silly.
But I think the biggest question is if I can turn into something really small to dodge attacks, like one of my bugs, and then fly away... could I fly? If I transform into something small, will my body compress into an area, mid-air, of my choice, or will my transformation lower to the ground, where I'd stand there as a bug, or will I shrink entered around my head, or maybe my heart, or maybe my solar plexus?
He stops scratching his head and looks apologetically
I'm sorry, these are questions not even an academy student would ask, let alone me. Nevermind that, I'd really like to learn the Chakra Absorption technique. The shadow shuriken technique also sounds really nice, though the shadow clone technique itself just sounds really troublesome and high stakes, so I don't really want to use it.

The transformation technique is only usable with the contracts you've signed, say for me I am able to turn into a Duck, or a Griffin if I really wanted to. You'd gain some minor attributes from the animal in question, but nothing to over the top. Mostly just their physical features. I hope that answers your question.
Castiel listened while taking a breath.
Is only usable with your summoning contracts. Nothing else, but we'll get to that in training.
Castiel then stopped for a moment before continuing.
As I said before there is a lot of weapon based techniques, would you like to go through them now and get them out of the way so we can focus on better techniques, or would you like to go through them one by one?

Oh. So the transformation technique can only be used to turn into inanimate objects, other people, new people and animals you have a contract with?
And it's as you wish, I'm just happy to be learning.

We'll finish the D-rank list and then move onto the weapon techniques.
Now, I want you to gather you chakra and release it around my clone, then use shape manipulation on the chakra to form them into a swarm of sakura's petals. Then proceed to control the petals, swirl them around my clone; blocking the clones vision, allowing you to attack him from any direction, how ever you want. You have to be within close range of your target, which is a bummer for this.
Okay; Take out about 10 kunai with pouches attached to the end of the kunais, put a bunch of small explosive notes in each of the pouches, and then throw them all at once, as soon as they get close to my clone the pouches explode leaving a bunch of explosive notes laying around the clone, then I want you to throw one final kunai with an active explosive note on the said kunai, and then throw it towards my clone; the burning note will ignite all the others on the ground and around my clone causing a huge explosion.
