Seems we forgot one. >.>'

(Hadō no Kyūjū: Kurohitsugi ) - Way of Destruction Number Ninety: Black Coffin
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description:
The user makes six handseals, causing portals to emerge on all sides around the opponent, a few metres away. Keigoku flows from these portals, before forming itself into a black coffin-shaped box surrounding the opponent, large enough to trap two people. The box covers the opponent in all sides, including above and below ( however the portal from below only appears as the other sides have been fully created ); contact with it makes the opponent's head ache badly. As soon as the box forms fully, taking around the same time it takes to throw a kunai, spears of Keigoku manifest themselves on the walls and shoot inward, impaling an opponent caught within it. This causes severe mental agony, causing the opponent to feel exhausted and collapse temporarily for one turn.
This technique may be used only thrice per battle.
No Nekura techniques above A-rank may be used during the same turn and the next turn.

To perform this, you must make six handseals, which open portals on each side of the enemy. As they open, generate keigoku from them. A box begins to appear all around the target, outlining itself inwards as it appears. As it fully appears, the last portal appears at the bottom of them. and gigantic spears appear from the bottom.

Perform it and give me drawbacks, benefits, and tactics you would use with this.

*makes six hand seals
*creates four portals, one by your back, front side, left and right..
*makes Keigoku come out of the portals, forming a black coffin like box which covers every single side of you, even top and bottom.
*as the last portal appears below you, I make gigantic spikes to raise, puncturing you and dealing mental damage.

Drawbacks; there aren't any physical drawbacks to the user, just can't use any Nekura techniques A-rank or higher for that turn or the next..

Benefits; Traps the opponent from every side. Deals both physical and mental damage and makes the opponent collapse

I'd use this right after I've casted an illusion which immobilized my opponent, thus giving it adequate time to form fully and work out..

I'd like to use this with Bringer of Darkness as it already causes their surroundings to turn black, making it hard for them to see the box forming around them, making it even harder to defend against. But yes, that's pretty much the gist of the attack. Any questions?

Lol, I was just kidding about the Dark Convergence being a custom for me.

Right, now we both know one of the benefits of Keigoku is that upon contact, it causes mental pain ranging from minor headaches to shattering of minds, leaving in comatose states. But one of the main disadvantages of the Keigoku sometimes is that it is ranged and hard to get off in taijutsu bouts. One could try but it'd be hard to guarantee that it would get off. An Ideal method of fighting with Keigoku, in my opinion, is using keigoku alongside taijutsu, combining two of my favorite forms of fighting. By doing this, you can make even close range battles a liability for your enemy. Now, can you tell me different ways this can be done, using Keigoku in taijutsu fights?

And I believed it. T.T

Well using it in tai is quite simple imo. I've actually recently used it in close combat, against oasis and his nagato bio. What I did was simply use force lightning in its original way. Though he interrupted me and I ended up improvising and using it in close range. He blitzed me via propulsion boots in attempts to choke, then stab me. I allowed him to grab a hold of me whilst simultaneously knocking away his little chakra rod. The moment he grabbed me, I took advantage of that and used force lightning to create the portal a mere centimeter away from him as he dealt with my freeform. This let the force lightning blast him point blank range as he and I engaged in close range.

Tai and Keigoku go together in one of the simplest ways if used properly. Just hitting someone with Keigoku throws off their concentration for the split moments needed to take advantage of openings and land lethal blows.

Effective, simple, but works. I like it. The most effective way however is to use Keigoku in a way that not only augment your taijutsu, but also is useful in it's own ways. I will explain more on this later.

Now, one thing I like students of mine to be able to do is create effective customs that are used to help them out of small corners. It's always ideal to have jutsu that can be used in more general circumstances over ones that must have specific conditions met before they can be used, like Kirin, or elemental counters. The Abilities of the clan hold few drawbacks but there is one that cannot be missed regarding the usages of the portals and how they work. Due to this drawback, it limits the versatility of the portals and leaves them as situational jutsus, usable only in certain conditions. Can you note what that is?

Took you long enough ~_~

Portals are able to be made freeform and as many as one wants to make. They can be of any size and shape and open virtually anywhere, but the main drawback to this is that they can only let Keigoku pass through them and nothing else. Had portals been capable of transferring things other than Keigoku, then this would have been quite the jutsu, capable of sending multitudes of items through portals freeform and as many times as one wants, but of course, things need a limit and our's is that only Keigoku can pass through the portals, nothing else.

Now, I mentioned in my last post that customs should be made to have a purpose and to work on a broader sense, or you limit yourself too much. In this case, portals are only usable with Keigoku, which is understanding, but still ties in with it's broader purpose, allowing powerful jutsu to travel through portals for near instant ranged attacks. However, the limitation on this is that it is only useful as a ranged attack, and not very practical for short range offenses.

Customs should have more than one usage, which is why I mention the broader sense so much. They should have a straightforward usage, which is common sensical to do, but they should also be able to be used in a way that makes even the basic of jutsus OP and deadly when combo'd together with other jutsus/abilities.

Earlier I mentioned that using Keigoku with taijutsu is effective when you can find a way to have it augment your attacks while maintaining it's own versatility, if that makes sense.
Now I present you two concepts and ask for a solution:

You wish to use Keigoku in a powerful and effective way, but it's main problem is it's short distance. Portals are great to use, but the main flaw with them is only Keigoku can go through them? How do you propose you fix this with one solution?

Becoming Keigoku!
You must be registered for see images


If you were to become Keigoku, you'd be the living solution to both flaws. Being Keigoku you'd be able to pass through the portals you passively open, thus giving you a spice-time ability in the sense. Then being a being composed of Keigoku, your Taijutsu/close combat would be augmented by the Keigoku affects with every single touch.

Well off top I think of two ways to become Keigoku.

1) using the already present Keigoku in our body to manifest it and fuse with it.

2) call forth Keigoku from a portal, which we'd take and fuse with it to become a living Keigoku being.

Well, correct. Another way would be through touch. By maintaining contact with something, you release Keigoku into it to the point that it corrupts the core and momentarily turns it into Keigoku. Of course, this isn't currently possible and only the overview of the idea, but in theory, it could be possible. Anyway, moving on.

Going with the second method, I developed a way to firstly augment our taijutsu prowess by using Keigoku and to also bypass a restriction legally.

( Dark Convergence ) - Kuro Shuusoku
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 50 (+10 per turn active)
Damage Points: N/A (+15 to opponent for every taijutsu blow landed)
Description: The user will focus and open 4 human sized portals, one on each side of his body and a metre away from him, allowing massive amounts of Keigoku to pass through the portals and flow onto him. This large influx of chakra reacts with the symbol that every clansman has branded on them and causes it to go haywire, so to speak. Instead of projecting and guiding Keigoku, it causes the Keigoku to travel inwards, filling the user's tenketsu with keigoku, warping it's usage and causing the chakra to flow inwards, preventing Ninjutsu or genjutsu usage as long as it is active as the chakra cannot be molded correctly. As the Keigoku flows inwards, it corrupts the user at the very core, literally turning him into a solid manifestation of Keigoku, causing building damage to the user over a series of turns. Taijutsu attacks are augmented through the usage of this, adding properties of being exposed to Keigoku with each strike that lands.
Unfortunately, there are more drawbacks than benefits; the longer the user has this jutsu active, the more at risk he is of fatally harming himself from the reverted flow of chakra. If active for longer than two turns, upon deactivation the user can only use taijutsu attacks for two turns as it takes time for the user's tenketsu to start it's correct flow. The user also can not use any Keigoku techniques of S-rank and higher while this is active. While this is active, the user is vulnerable to sealing jutsus that seal away elements and/or jutsus.
The Nekura requires special training and must be Black Knight or above to utilize this jutsu. To add to this, this jutsu can only be used twice, lasting at a maximum of 3 three turns each turn with a build up period of at least 2 turns in between usage.

Now analyze it and tell me everything about (weaknesses, strengths, best methods to use it with, combating it, using in combos, etc etc).

Strengths:
• Allows me to amplify my Taijutsu by throwing in mental damage along with the physical damage due to the fact that I'll be raw solidified Keigoku...

• Allows me to teleport from portal to portal

• Makes it retarded to hit me since you'd receive damage for hitting me

Weaknesses:
• Due to turning my whole being into keigoku i take a risk of fatally harming himself from the reverted flow of chakra

• Weak to sealing (that's scary) ._.

Best methods to use it with:
• Not sure what you mean

Combating it:
• Well, I don't have to since it's affects don't affect me if you dork or better used it on me. >.>

• But if I had to, I'd say I'd make it rain (for sensing purposes in case you teleport) and try to keep my distance with long range attacks until it wares off.

Combination usages:
• Well off the top I thought of this one: I used dark convergence to become Keigoku, and instantly do like black coffin or way of binding on my opponent. The moment the portals open around the opponent for the attack, I'd simply teleport to one of those portals from one by me, so I'd be up close and personal attacking with tai while the other nekura technique does its thing.

Methods:
• I'd use it offensively to simply increase the effectiveness of my Taijutsu when I'm up against some super tai shinobi.

• Would use it defensively in a cliche way. To teleport through portals to avoid techniques while maneuvering closer to the opponent.
