hehe I'm not sure about that. there are 3 different slashes: horizontal, diagonal and vertical. all can be perfomed as a 1-handed or 2-handed attack.
horizontal attacks are traveling obviously horizontally xD from either from left to right, or right to left. depending on the position of the user, it can cut the opponent at the knees, waist, chest, neck, etc.
vertical attacks are similar, but they can only move vertically downward (from up to down) or upward (from down to up). positioning also crucial as it can cut down the arms, or split the head into 2.
diagonal attacks on the other hand are a bit different. it's a combination of the 2 above. diagonal attacks can have different angles and directions, starting from left to right, continuing with right to left and choosing direction: downward or upward. with angle, direction and position these have the widest range of use.
Ok so welcome to my new Kenjutsu Training system. It was based off of Lili-Chawn and Reborns style of training. In this system you wont perform the techniques but I however expect some questions. So this will be broken down into 3 catergories which are,
-Combo Based Kenjutsu/Simple Kenjutsu
-Chakra Enhanced Kenjutsu
-Character Bound Kenjutsu.
The First One We will start with is Combo Based Kenjutsu, these techniques are very different from Chakra Based, due to the lack of chakra required to perform them. The gimmick behind how they work is right in the description. Example would be (Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique, it says the user does a *sequence* of slashes, which is where your freeform will come in, as it can range from 4-9 or 7-20 slashes making it safe to say you have a sorta passive amount of slashes, couple with a speedy charater, you have a dangerous combo on her your hands. In the term simple kenjutsu are minor techniques that can be added to your combos usually as a finisher. Here is the list of these techniques -

Note: Can only be used by a cloud member bio or trained by one.
Now using any of the techniques mentioned(besides the Cloud Kenjutsu) and perform 3 separate moves using some of the hints I mentioned, also any questions?
Well first you said I don't perform the techniques then told me to perform 3. Interesting. xD The only question I have if this doesn't say how many slashes I can perform as much as I want? But before I forget, one of my bios was raised in the Hidden Cloud, so I can learn the cloud style too? BTW sorry for the late reply I had some RL things to do. (still have tho)
*I unsheath my sword and stand in a basic kendo stance. I hold the sword with both hands and point the tip of the sword at a target dummy's head. Then quickly dash forward it and raise my sword to make a vertical slash from up to down, aiming at his center. The dummy is close to me, so by the time I raise my sword I can slash downward, but instead of stopping here, I change the grip on my sword and slash diagonally upward, starting from the bottom right. This slash is aimed at the dummy's left waist and goes toward the right shoulder. However I still don't stop here, but step forward and make another diagonal slash. This time I aim at the left shoulder and continue toward to the right waist. With my step and the motion gained from the previous slash, this is supposed to be the finishing move.*
(Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique

Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: With this technique, the user will make a sequence of slashes with their sword and finishes with a powerful final slash dealing liberal damage to their enemy.
*As I finished the previous move, I start to run toward my next target. This time I lower my sword and hold it with 1 hand, while at the same time point at the ground on my right. I keep running to reach my target as well as to gain speed. Then as I get in the appropriate range, I start to spin toward my right with great speed. I help the spin with little steps in every round to keep moving forward and not spin in 1 place. At the same time of my spinning, I make different kind of slashes. I start with a diagonal one aimed at the waist and continuing toward the chest. With the spinning motion it will be faster than normal. Then I continue with a regular horizontal slash aimed at the chest, an another diagonal one aimed at the waist toward the knees, cutting the limbs, then another diagonal slash at the waist and a finishing one at the neck. I only perform 1 slash per turn to keep up the spinning and have enough time to prepare for the next one. The preparing happens while I can't attack the dummy, in other words facing the other way or just can't reach it with my sword for some reason.*
( Enjin Ranbu ) - Circular Wild Dance
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user spins with his tantō, hitting the target several times.
*As I finished the spinning attack, I sheath my sword and dash toward the next target. As I reach it, I grab the hilt and start to unsheath it again. However instead of finishing this movement, I simply hit the dummy in the groin with the hilt. Then without stopping I start to sheath it again and kneel into it's right side with my left knee. Right as I finished it, I spin toward my right, change legs and kick the dummy's head from under, sending it into the air. While it's flying, I run after it, jump into the air and hit it with a single straight punch, making it crash into the ground.*

not really, only 1. can some of these be used to destroy elemental based techniques? like ( Enjin Ranbu ) - Circular Wild Dance to destroy earth spikes and such, or they are weak against elemental techs?
Chakra Enhanced Kenjutsu Lesson! Now this is a special lesson in the sesión of Kenjutsu these itechniques are actually using chakra involved in them. This can range from the infusion of elemental chakra, most commonly Lighting and or Wind Release. Now in this lesson we will be also discussing the aspect of chakra flow and how chakra flow can effect Kenjutsu and what each element and raw chakra can do in this situation.
Chakra Flow: Chakra Flow to both the flowing of chakra through an object as well as any technique that increases the potency of a weapon by flowing chakra through it. Usually, elemental chakra is used to flow through bladed weapons in order to either dramatically increase their various pre-existing properties or to gain additional advantageous effects. The user must be touching the tool to initiate chakra flow, but direct contact with the weapon is not necessary to maintain chakra flow.
Now that’s the basic aspect of chakra flow , its simply to enchance or change the properties of a weapon more or less speaking a katana or nodochi etc etc.
Now here is a breakdown of each element and how they can affect the sword:
Fire chakra engulfs the sword in intense localised flames, which follow the subsequent path of the object in question, incinerating anything which comes into direct contact.
Earth chakra seemingly increases the defensive power of an object to its utmost limits, by further reinforcing the inherent properties of the material involved. This can also be done to increase or decrease the weight of the weapon which can make the blade faster in the aspect of lighting it but also makes it weaker, and making it heavy which decreases the speed but increases the power.
Lightning chakra, as applied to weapons, provides an increased cutting power similar to that of wind, with the addition of inducing numbness. However, this is instead achieved by inducing high-frequency vibrations within the object.
Wind is primarly the same to Lighting if you ask me, but according to Asuma, is used in order to increase the sharpness of bladed weapons, so much so that in the hands of an experienced user even small blades are capable of piercing substantial rocks easily, leading to his assertion that this chakra is unparalleled offensively in close and mid-ranged fights.
Water is pretty much the only one left out but as you may seen when Suigetsu uses his sword, he can change the properties down with his Hydration technique
Raw Chakra is basically the main foundation of this as it can pretty much do all the stuff above besides the Earth Chakra. How ever where most don’t Raw chakra can be manipulated to form new wepons more or less speaking the Samurai of the Land of Iron are experts in this art as they have created the art of the Samurai Sabre which can do a lot of many things though I wont get into detail about it(Only for Samurai Training).

This released chakra is capable of great destruction as shown from how it destroyed a stone pillar. The samurai have also shown the ability to use shape transformation, as they can form their chakra blades into giant buzz saws, broad swords, spiked shafts, and axes. This ability allows them to rely on smaller swords while retaining greater reach, damage, and surprise attacks as needed.(The technique is capable of countering Ninjutsu of A rank and below due to the chakra charge technique).

NB: You don’t learn the Cloud Style and Samurai Techniques as this is not a Samurai Session, and you don’t have a Samurai bio, and Im not a Cloud Ninja to teach them to you.
Well since I can't learn the samurai and cloud ones, I'll just try to use the rest in the training.
*After finishing the previous turn, I sheath my sword and face another target dummy. Then after listening to the instructions, I grab my sword with my right and prepare to attack. As I'm ready, I bolt forward to the dummy extremely quickly and unsheath my sword half way. As I do that, I hit the dummy's stomach with the hilt and quickly proceed. Right after the hit, I twist my body to the right and perform a kick with my left leg. The kick is aimed at the dummy's chin in an angle that would send it flying. However I don't stop here, but right as the kick lands, I keep turning to my right and unsheathing my sword. While turning, I also channel chakra into my blade and with the same motion, using the momentum from the turn and the unsheathing, I perform a crescent-shaped slash at the flying dummy when I face it. It is aimed at it's chest and hits him horizontally. However not letting any moment to be wasted, I channel chakra into the blade again and jump in the air after the flying dummy. I channel the chakra fast enough to use it when I'm about to finish the firts turn. When I reach that point, I make a swing with my sword, enchanted with the motion from the spin and release the chakra from my sword, creating a spinning circle what I keep up for a while. In the end the dummy falls down with several deep cuts on it.*
