[Katon] Group A

[Six Paths]

Reaching the training field, I get surprised how my student wasn't seemingly alone. He had company. But I was not made aware of this in the training application. I wouldn't know if I had the ability to train 2 students simultaneously. Either way. I was present here for now, so I needed to make a proper greeting and not think to heavy on it. With a calm expression I greet them.

Hello, my name is Nikodo Uzumaki and I shall be your Fire teacher. May I know your name and ambitious as a Shinobi?

Not hearing any response from Kaene I release the flame pillar and notice that Kaene has vanished from training. I think to myself "First my classmate doesn't show not my sensei disappers... Just my luck." Upon finishing the thought I hear footsteps appear behind me turning around I see a man with red hair "Uzumaki?" thinking to myself as he speaks. After his introduction I reply "Names Keji Kurai and my goals as a shinobi are to live up to my creeds two of which are: Always protect those dearest to you and Kill any who threaten my family." I smile putting my fist up as it is my version of a hand shake "Nice to meet you Nikodo."

I understand. Your goal as a shinobi is a simple one, but that doesn't make it any less meaningful and powerful enough to drive you. I will today teach you in the arts of Fire release. One of the most destructive and powerful elements, and also one of my personal favorites. But before I start directly with the ground work, I will need you to tell me.

What is chakra and what is fire release specifically?

I tie my arms in front of me as I calmly wait for my student to reply.

I tie my arms in front of me as I calmly wait for my student to reply.

Lowering my fist I begin to reply. "Chakra is a type of energy that resides in all living things on earth. It originally came from the Shinju tree but a woman named Kaguya ate its fruit making her the first human to wield chakra as a weapon. She gave birth to two sons one of which created ninshu to connect all people in the world but instead we abused his gift turning ninshu into ninjutsu using chakra for war. Katon is one of the five base elements that all ninja can learn. Like you said it is one of the most destructive and powerful elements and to my knowledge is almost purely offensive based though a skilled shinobi could use offensive jutsu for defense. Katon is usually seen being used via mouth or infusing fire chakra into objects another form is black flames which comes from the Uchiha dojutsu mangekyo sharingan."

 

[Six Paths]

Very rudimentary and basic, though still correct. I hope you don't mind me further adding to that.

Chakra is an energy which is said to be created after finding the perfect balance between physical energy, so being physically fit, strong, healthy. And the mental or spiritual energy, which means being at peace. Once those 2 criteria are met, this energy called chakra will be created by very special points in the human body, which we will call chakra points.

At this time i make one handseal with my right hand as I hold my left one up. After some smoke appeared, in his left hand, a scroll was visible which I unrolled and showed it to my student.

See, these are the location of all the chakra points in the human body, there are basically 361 pressure points which will "create" or a better work mold new chakra. This chakra then is able to travel through the body, along another circulation system. Kinda like blood travels through the circulation system, chakra will travel through a separate one which is the Chakra Network System. Which will connect pressure points with each other. As you can clearly see here. Well as we continue we can say there are other kinds of chakra as the flow of energy, characteristics and lastly the amounts of it are simply too different to be put in the same category, and it will be divided like this:

• Bijuu Chakra: Which is very special, thick, and the amounts of it are simply gigantic. The beings which have those large amounts are called the Bijuu or sometimes they are refereed to as chakra monsters. The power they have is off charts as they have such large amounts of it, they can destroy entire mountains in a very short time. Their chakra is characteristic and it is red in color. So without much thinking about it, this will make them feared among the humans, and by some others wanted because of their huge power.

• Senjutsu Chakra: This is one of my favorite for a very specific reason. The senjutsu chakra, or the sage chakra is a very special chakra which will allow you to use Senjutsu, or sage jutsu. It is a very special chakra that someone will need to draw from the nature all around him. the Sage chakra will boost every aspect of a humans body, speed, strength, reflexes and it will give them a passive ability to become in one way or another "one with nature". Allowing you to feel everything around you constantly, so you could pretty much fight without relying in any of the senses and know what is going on.​

Fire Release is the usage of superheated chakra to create flames and heat-intensive attacks. Its created through channeling Katon chakra to the user's lungs and exhaling the built chakra in various forms. Katon is most commonly used in its fire-based form, but it can also take the shape of a plume of superheated ash or a misty flammable gas. In terms of raw potential, its considered the least versatile element as it excels in offensive capabilities, lacks in supplementary usage and is ill-suited to use as a defensive element. Despite this, Katon is the most ferocious element to contend with due to its sheer raw power. The heat of the element makes it capable of reducing earthen structures to molten mud, the parasitic nature of it means it preys on the oxygen within wind-based attacks to supplement the flames and even against its elemental superior, large-scale Katon techniques are capable of reducing large bodies of water to scorching mist of dense steam. The Katon element has little usage outside of destruction, to a certain degree its the hardest elemental nature to tame due to its sporadic and uncontrollable nature.

The information above about Fire is my First Sensei's so I will have to give him credit there. Anyway, are we clear?

 

[Pyro NB]

I listen as Nikodo explains chakra and katon further. When he is finished he asked me a question to which I replied with a simple "Understood." I place my hands in my pocket and await further instruction.

 

[Six Paths]

Nodding after understanding that everything was relatively clear for him, I simply begin explaining the first technique of fire release.

I will be beginning then. My training method is rather simple, I will explain the technique itself and you simply have to perform the technique and mention a few advantages and disadvantages. Let us begin then^^.

(Katon: Ryu Kaen Bakufuu ) - Fire Release: Dragon Flame Blitz
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user inhales and then exhales, shooting small balls of fire at the opponent.

This is the most basic technique, and in a sense it explains fire release. Charge chakra inside of your lungs. Close your eyes, and slowly change the chakra nature, making the chakra very hot, and almost flamming, but not turning it into fire just yet. You will then slowly send your chakra over to your mouth, and it is then when you will break the chakra into chunks. The moment when you release the flames, you will then turn the fire chakra into raw fire, and directing it towards a location which you feel like. You will continue to release chunks of chakra, shape them into a sphere and then directly release the flame towards a certain direction until you simply run out of chakra. The fire release convergence is done while thinking of the true nature of fire. Very hot, burning in touch and flaming. Feeding on the oxygen in the air as it burns, in a sense...you have to think about what fire actually is. Use it on those targets and make sure to aim and hit in the right spot.

I point towards a few targets and simply wait until you are done.

I begin to inhale and as I am doing so I focus chakra into my lungs. Once my lungs fill I proceed to change the chakra into katon chakra. Once I begin to feel the heat of the chakra in my lungs I proceed to exhale releasing the chakra that was stored. Upon exiting my mouth I shape the chakra into small spherical shapes aiming each one at the center of a different target. As the targets presented in front of me begin to burn I proceed with my the next step.

"Advantages and Disadvantages. This jutsu provides a barrage of fire ball to attack your enemy meaning they would have to block multiple targets at once or suffer damage. The down fall to this jutsu is that it would most likely need to be proceeded by a diversionary tactic since fire at this level could be blocked by doton and suiton style jutsu."

 

[Six Paths]

Well done, I liked the reply and performance of the technique. We shall continue.

Saying so, I continue with the training at the same pace before speeding anything up. I must know how well he can cope with each technique before that, so I calmly continue.

(Katon: Kaen Shuriken Ranbu) - Fire Release: Blazing Shuriken Dance
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will throw several shuriken infused with fire at the enemy and then, through a mental command, ignites them to cause extra damage.

This technique is a simply one as well, doesn't mean it is not useful though. You will in one hand get ready some shuriken, while simultaneously charging chakra inside your body. You will throw the kunai towards your target, which can be up to 10 m far. The kunais will have a different path each, now focus on each one separately. You will release the chakra while breaking it up with shape manipulation in little bits, and use your nature manipulation to superheat the chakra until it ignites. The flames will hit the kunais, and stick to them, making the steel insanely hot, so if it comes into contact with anything, it will burn him, also the steel edge which is sharp will hurt as well. Use it on my clones which are there. One kunai should hit each clone.

I make 3 clones which run towards you in different directions, but one side of you nonetheless.

After listening to Nikodo and watching as he summons 3 clones I reach into my back pouch and retrieve 6 shuriken (3 per hand) and begin building katon chakra into my body. As the clones split to attack and flank me I proceed to initiate a 360 spin, while spinning I release 2 shuriken per clone. As I stop my rotation I release little bits of katon chakra in the directions of my shuriken and just after each shuriken hits it's mark I super heat the chakra cause them to ignite into flames. While the initial shuriken cause damage through cuts and the ignition of them began cauterizing the wounds causing the clones to pass out due to pain and eventually vanish.

"Advantages and disadvantages. Like the first jutsu you taught me this also provides multiple attacks to barrage your opponent with as well as two different types of damage both physical and elemental. Unlike the first jutsu this can be defended against physical base styles such as kenjutsu since the shuriken have a physical form. In my opinion based on your opponents fighting style the physical shuriken part of this jutsu could either help or hinder you."

 

[Six Paths]

Very well done, I like the mentioned disadvantages. I hope you don't mind, but your quality of the replies will have to make me speed up. But, a word of warning, if it is too much, or I see a drop, I might return back to one, I don't want my students to feel like they are being overwhelmed. So far, I am very pleased.

I said in a happy cheerful sound, and continue with the training naturally.

(Katon: Komakai Kaki) - Fire Release: Small Fire
Rank: D
Type: Offense
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user spews a small fireball.

This technique is a very simple one, one which I cannot say to much about. You will simply knead fire chakra in your lungs, and take a deep breath. Then, you will send your chakra from your lungs, to your trachea, slowly directing it to your mouth. Simply release the amounts of chakra, shaped into a small fireball, and once released, change the nature of the chakra, into fire. This fireball will be able to burn your enemy, and depending where it hits, even kill him. In a sense, all attacks are lethal if all you do it take them fully head on. Use it on my clone, and simply burn him up.

(Katon: Kasumi Enbu no Jutsu) - Fire Release: Mist Blaze Dance Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offense/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After performing the necessary hand seals Snake → Ram → Monkey → Tiger, the user is able to create and blow a flammable gas from their lungs. Once it comes in contact with fire or sparks, the gas ignites into a large fireball.

This technique, is another property of fire release, which differs from the usual flames. It could be a very nice potential on creating your own techniques one day, so pay attention carefully.You will make 4 handseals and charge chakra inside of your lungs. Send them towards your mouth as prior, but this time...release your chakra in a very subtle manner, which allows it to travel throughout the battlefield, towards your enemy. Once there is a visible spark, the gas will ignite greatly, and explode in a very big fireball. It is very useful as it can be useful in a multitude of ways, not only killing, but also taking attention away, or using it supplementary. You should be careful though, because if the enemy is fast, this technique could be your very own grave. I advice to best release it when you are hiding, or the enemy is preoccupied, with maybe a previous technique. Use it on my clone, which is searching for his left sock.

The clone is preoccupied searching. "Where the hell did I leave it"

I bow acknowledging Nikodo's praise. After Nikodo explains the first jutsu and summons a clone I begin building katon chakra into my lungs as I inhale a large amount of air. Once my Lungs reach max capacity I exhale allowing my chakra to flow with my breath. As the air leaves my mouth I ignite the katon while using chakra manipulation to shape the flame into a fireball incinerating the clone. Nikodo then explains a second jutsu and summons a clone who is searching for a sock. I begin the same process as the previous jutsu taught but I slowly release my breath on the exhale allowing my chakra to flow towards and around the clone. Once surrounded I ignite the gas causing it to be engulfed in flames exploding into a large fireball.

"Advantages and disadvantages for the first jutsu. The fireball while classified as offensive it can be used defensively as well. For instance you opponent throws a wood weapon at you or attacks with a e/d rank organic jutsu. Using this technique would protect you by incinerating the weapon/jutsu while attacking at the same time. Downside to this jutsu would be doton/suiton defenses. One could also say that it is very one dimensional since it fires one fireball in a straight line so experienced shinobi could probably counter easily unless set up right or used in combination with a partner.

As for the second jutsu, I agree that you would have to be hiding or your opponent would have to be preoccupied with something else in order to pull this off. I would also add that if you are facing a master katon user the may notice and ignite the gas themselves causing the flame to travel back to sender if you know what I mean. I would also think Futon users could easily blow the gas away if they notice it. As for advantages I think it's a perfect trap to use while in hiding or once again in combination with an ally. Like the first jutsu it could also be used for defense. For example say a shinobi is charging you and you jump back while releasing the gas. You can ignite it as soon as the enemy enters it blowing them up while you still remain a safe distance away."

*Sorry for the late reply. I've been busy with work.
