Good we will do two jutsus now
(Raiton: Ikazuchi no Kiba) - Lightning Release: Fangs of Lightning
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user will raise his hand or a weapon and send an electrical discharge into the clouds, allowing them to create lightning strikes in the desired location. The discharges are triggered right after the technique and cannot be delayed or prepared before hand but are quite fast.
Channel chakra in your hand and raise it up to release the chakra in the air and use to create lightning strikes to come down onto my clone.
Strong points
- No handseals
- It's quite fast once it strikes
- Can be used with a weapon which is handy
Weak points
- Discharge is after technique (would that be the actual strikes?)
- Looks like you need clouds to use this
- The discharge can't be delayed or prepared beforehand
Combinations-strategies: This would be a nice one to use in conjunction with the water prison technique though it requires a setup which includes a clone or two. It would be interesting if using a weapon you could fake a swing at your opponent and instead do the technique but continue fighting then while he is unaware or distracted have the lightning strike them. Don't know how that would work.
Ways to counter this technique: Lightning is a dangerous element especially when you're trying to counter it properly. It moves fast so your only remedy is to somehow neutralize it head on, which only those with fast reflexes and reaction speed can achieve, or using a strong wind jutsu. I don't know any wind jutsu so not sure which exactly would counter it. Oooh! HOw bout countering it with another lightning technique like a shield or something. It doesn't attack the opponent but it ensures you don't get zapped. z.z
You Doing the jutsu: I channel chakra to my sword, raise it towards the sky, and release my chakra into the air/clouds in the form of an electrical discharge. Upon reaching the clouds, some magic happens and I somehow control the lightning to shoot down on the exact spot your clone is at several times. I assume that the strikes cause enough damage to disperse your clone otherwise they would somehow paralyze him (not sure since the description don't say much).
(Raiton: Shichu Shibari) – Lightning Release: Four-Pillar Bind
Rank: B
Type: Offensive, Supplementary
Range: Short – Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: After the user performs the Ram → Boar → Dog → Bird → Hare hand seals, he releases his lightning chakra into the ground, using it to forcefully shape the earth into 4 big pillars (proportionate to the target area) around the target. Once they rise, they unleash a barrage of lightning bolts, currents and shocks to whatever is inside, paralyzing, shocking and damaging the target from all around.
Do the hand signs and have 4 pillars from the ground rise up from around my clone and have the pillars shoot bolts of lightning at my clone.
Strong points
- Able to attack at any range
- Paralyzes, shocks, and damages your opponent at the same time
Weak points
- Hansigns and/or the rising pillars almost give it away
- Target must stay in place (no counter) for it to work properly
Combinations-strategies: This for me would be a good opening move or using it in conjunction with a fire or water technique. The water for conducting or the fire before then followed by pillar bind.
Ways to counter this technique: From my opinion, the barrage of the attack doesn't start until the pillars have been erected. You could do the hiding like a mole technique or erecting a earth barrier to minimize the damage or to fly up in the air to avoid it. Or wait, wind would be a good deterrent as well but you would need one that surrounds you so as to completely dispel the lighting coming at you.
You Doing the jutsu: I channel my chakra towards my hands as I make Ram → Boar → Dog → Bird → Hare handsigns. I then place my hands on the ground and release the surge of chakra in the form of lightning towards my targets location. Instead of directly targeting my opponent, the lightning goes around him and forcefully causes 4 pillars to rise up off the earth. The lightning then travels through all the pillars and releases several lightning strikes, paralyzing the target until he can't move anymore and drops to the ground or poofs whichever comes first.
