A friend teaches me Kenjutsu.

[Punk Hazard]

*I unsheath my sword and walk up to the clone. I then proceed to slash and cut the clone multiple times. I do this by gripping the handle with one hand andand raising the sword so the blade rests just over my shoulder. I then start with a diagonal slash, then, I follow up by using the momentum of the downward slash to slice upwards. I then cut him several more times about his chest. Ti finish, I grip the swords with both handles and rush at him. I slice him and appear behind him. I then sheath the sword slowly. Just as the sword is completely sheathed, a spurt of blood comes from the clone's chest and he collapses.

Next time, be sure to state which hand you use, however, excellent job using gravity to your advantage.

(Ikari Nomikomu no Jutsu) - Fury Swallow Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: The user punches the opponent a few times and finishes them with two final slashes with their blade or sword.

Now, proceed to hold your sword out before you, forming a 90 degree angle from your body to the ground. Directly horizontal.
Then, start spinning as you get near my clone, making sure the blade penetrates his body.
What might be the purpose of this?

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I hold the sword with my right hand, gripping the handle firmly. I then hold the blade out so the handle points at me and the blade points forward towards the clone. I then run forward quickly, reaching almost all the way up to the clone in a few seconds. I then use the momentum of the running to spin my body very quickly. As I reach the clone, the spinning blade stabs and slices him*

I see two possible reasons for this. First, the spinning would give the blade a bit more force, so the slices and cuts would be bigger and deeper.

Second, the spinning could distract the opponent, similar to how the Genjutsu where the user looked like he jumped into the air and turned into petals. Due to looking a bit silly and ridiculous, the opponent would let down his guard in surprise, allowing full damage to be dealt.

 

[Adachi]

Excellent. Also, don't forget that because you because you are spinning in a wild manner, it also makes you a tougher target to strike.

( 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.

Now, jump into the ground above my clone and then proceed to aim your sword downwards towards him as you fall back then, pinning the blade onto him.

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I hold my sword in my right hand and jump high into the air. I jump just far enough so I'm over the clone. In the second that I'm neither going up or falling, but rather "suspended" in one spot in the air, I hold my sword out and point the blade downwards and at the clone. I then grip the handle of the blade with both hands. I then start to fall. As I fall, I build up momentum. As I hit the clone in the left shoulder with the blade, all the momentum I've built up is released into the impact, knocking down the clone with lots of force. The momentum also causes to blade to pierce completely through his shoulder and tear off his arm.*

 

[Adachi]

>.> The arm...

Spoiler

( Rakkasui ) - Falling Water
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user will drop down upon the opponent from mid air pointing their sword downwards and drilling it down into the opponent.

Okay, basically, one can charge chakra into their feet for extra effects in freeform.
Proceed to do this, and dash up to my clone, however, strike him with the hilt of your sword (toss your sword in such a way in the air so you can easily switch over to using the handle as an attack).
Once you've struck him with your sword, then proceed to kick him into the air.
Dash back and finish with a punch that sends him back into the ground.

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I channel chakra into my feet. Using my chakra to push my leg muscles further than their normal limits, I use my newfound muscle strength to dash over to the clone. As I move over in a very fast run, I take my sword out if its sheath and toss it up slightly so I can flip it and I point the handle towards the clone. As I get near, I ram the handle into his stomach. The momentum from my run leaves such a big impact that knocks the wind out of him. I then proceed to kick him into the air. I then rush over him again by using my chakra to increase my leg muscles' ability. As I get near, I prepare a punch. As he gets close enough, I punch him and send him flying into the ground, the momentum from me running and him falling creates an impact that knocks him out.*

 

[Adachi]

Excellent, but again, don't forget to state which hand you use (this is important because you may need a free hand at times).

(Rensei Shinkuken) – Drilling Crimson Blade
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user takes out their blade and channels chakra into it. They then run towards the opponent, slashing them upwards into the air and then appear above him/her, and deliver a sharp, drilling slash down upon them, impelling them into the ground.

Now, once again, charge chakra into your sword, and then deliver a crescent-shaped slash at my clone.

First thirty seconds.

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I hold the handle of my sword with my right hand. I hold it up in front of me and I flow chakra into the blade. I have the chakra imbue into the blade and flow around on it, making the blade much sharper. I then walk up to the clone and raise the sword to strike. I then swing in a crescent shaped slice, leaving a massive wound on the clone's body, starting from his right shoulder down to right above his right hip, a crescent shaped wound.*

 

[Adachi]

Alright, so this can go up to mid range...
How might you use this one in battle?

 

[Punk Hazard]

Well, it can be used to get past the fact that you need to be in close-range to use most Kenjutsu techs.

I myself would use it either to finish off an immobilized opponent or to distract them while I prepare another attack.

 

[Adachi]

Excellent.
How about defensively as well?

 

[Punk Hazard]

Well, it can be used to defend against Taijutsu type attacks, I suppose.

 

[Adachi]

I'll be more specific.
Let's say I released a huge water bullet the size of your chest at you.
How would you use this move to stop it?

 

[Punk Hazard]

Due to the fact that the blade is now emitting chakra, it can cut the water bullet. If I cut it from a distance while in the blade's range(mid), I can slice it down the middle. As the watee bullet comes towards me, it would begin to space out and eventually fly past me, rather than hit me.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect.

(Suraisu Shinku no Nami) - Slicing Crimson Wave
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user does a simple cresent-shaped slash at the opponent, expelling a red chakra wave.

Okay, so proceed to charge Lightning chakra through your blade, much like the technique Sasuke used himself. Remember the effects of the Lightning as you strike my clone.
This should be strong enough to cut through steel too...

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I flow chakra throughout the sword. I have the chakra vibrate at a high rate, turning it into Lightning. The lightning coating the blade causes the blade to vibrate to a small extent as well. This small vibration and the coating of lightning increases the blade's sharpness to the point where it can easily cut through steel. Also, when the sword strikes an opponent, the lightning can numb the affected parts, hindering movement.*

 

[Adachi]

Excellent. Shock and paralysis, keep that in mind.

Spoiler

(Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Chidorigatana) - Grass Cutter Sword: One Thousand Birds Katana
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user flows Chidori current through a katana in manner similar to flying swallow technique. The Radiating and chirping blade can easily cut through steel. Furthermore, the body of the person cut by the sword goes numb, taking away their freedom of movement.

Now, this concept kind of derives off the idea of how chakra blades work. Charge chakra into your sword to increase its cutting power and then jump into the air, spinning towards my clone, much like the earlier jutsu.
Slice through him. O_O

 

[Punk Hazard]

*I grip the sword with my right handle, holding onto the handle. I then flow chakra into the sword and focus it in the blade. I then dash forward and jump into the air. Once in the air, I begin to spin, building up momentum. As I spin, I begin to descend towards the clone. As I get near, I use the spinning and its momentum to slice him with the sword. The chakra on the blade allows it to strike and cut even more, leaving a circular wound on the clone's chest and stomach.*

Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user will channel chakra into their sword making it glow blue and then jumping into the air they spin at a rapid rate creating a spinning circle and cutting through the enemy target.

Okay, with the recent spam of Nagashi techniques, proceed to throw them all off with just the simple use of a sword!
Stab your sword into the ground much like the name of this technique, Lightning Rod, and as my clone uses Nagashi, proceed to direct all of Raiton into your sword, channeling it through it to make it useless.
