(Tabi no Katana nashi) Journey of the Swordless (Passively Activated)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra: 30 (-15 per turn)
Damage: +20 to All Kenjutsu/Taijutsu based Techniques.
Description: Journey of the Swordless is a technique which is always active for those who practice the art of Kyotoryu. Being active from the very beginning of battle, Journey of the Swordless is classified as a passive technique to all those who wish to utilize it. While most Kyotoryu techniques do not require this, Journey of the Swordless is meant to enhance the users Kyotoryu techniques to their maximum, by sacrificing a real sword in the process.

To start, the user coats their entire body in a tiny, razor sharp layer of chakra, which looks very similar to the Medical Scalpel technique, to activate this technique. Once active, the user become a human blade, as all their strikes carry the same cutting potential as any regular sword, by being enhanced by their razor sharp chakra. Another benefit to this technique, is that the razor sharp chakra around the users body allows them to bypass wind resistances, allowing their strikes to also be much faster than when performing techniques with an actual sword. Another benefit of this, is that due to the wind resistance being removed from their strikes, while also gaining speed, all the users kenjutsu gain additional damage, by having any wind resistance removed, the strikes carry more weight, striking much harder and with more maneuverability than one could perform with a regular sword. However, the damage bonus is further increased when utilized with Kyotoryu techniques, as these techniques are specifically created for the fight style, adding Journey of the Swordless on top further empowers them, allowing the unique movements of Kyotoryu fighting style to be even more deadly than usual.

However, while this technique seems strong, the largest drawback is the user loses their ability to hold a sword. The chakra around the users body will destroy any sword hilt it comes into contact with. Even with indestructible blades, the hilt of the sword will be rejected, forcefully pushed out of the users hand if he tried to wield a bladed weapon. This is only the case for swords however, other objects, like Staffs, can be wielded, but any techniques requiring a Staff will Not gain any benefits from this technique.

Restrictions:
Must be posted in the users bio if they wish have it passive from the start of battle. Chakra cost can be paid to activate it during battle.
Once activated, the users Arms, Legs, Head, and even torso become a replacement for any Technique that requires a sword.
Due to the nature of the chakra, the user cannot wear any armor, nor can the user wield a sword of any description. However the user is able to wield non bladed weapons, but those weapons will gain no bonus' from this technique.
Any jutsu the user users, such as Earth Armor, will have its defenses Reduced by -20 if used over top of this technique. However, this only applies to techniques that attach to the users body, techniques such as Susanoo, will be unaffected.
This technique can be used by Samurai, following all the same restrictions as regular uses. However, as the user cannot wear armor with this technique active, it cannot be used with Bushido, however SSS and Iaido can be used in conjunction
( Hagakure Kikigaki ) - Hidden Leaves (Custom Weapon)
Type: Weapon
Rank: S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: Deep within the Dark Tower lies many secrets of Oisha and his former master Asano, secrets the pupil wished to take to the grave with him. Prior to acquiring the first of the Zōka Sanshin, Oisha learned the secrets of Hagakure and expanded upon these before ultimately passing his knowledge onto his most skilled and trusted samurai, Ishijo of the Riverlands. However, following Oisha’s betrayal and the ensuing battle that occurred between him and the Ronin, the blade was lost and never recovered by Ishijo.

The Hagakure has three unique skills attributed to it, allowing for it’s varied and powerful usages. The first of the three abilities is a passive ability known as Gunki Monogatari. Gunki Monogatari refers to the state of the blade and it’s dual natured composition. Hagakure is both a physical blade as well as a spiritual one, coexisting at the same time, appearing as a blackened blade with wispy air-like wisps emanating from it. This dual existence grants the blade the ability to deal both physical and spiritual damage at one time, splitting the damage done to target’s spiritual health as well as body as evenly as possible, dealing both physical and spiritual damage. These techniques will combat techniques as normal though. This ability is passive in nature and enhances all non elemental Kenjutsu as well as non-Yin or non-Yang based Kenjutsu.

The first active ability is a special attack called Kashoki. The user releases several crescent blades of energy, designed to combat intangible techniques as well as injure the target. These crescents are capable of interacting with spiritual techniques that are normally intangible as well as other techniques that are intangible. These blades also deal a double effect on targets; should an attack land, then the target’s overall health points lower by 10. This 10 health reduces the damage from the technique originally used, dealing 10 less damage as an S ranked attack to living targets. What this means is should the S ranked technique land, 70 damage will be dealt while their max health drops by 10 as well. Against other Jutsu, full damage will apply. The user can make these crescents to combat other techniques once every 2 turns.

The last and perhaps most notable ability of the Hagakure is known as Bushi Katagi, or Warrior Spirit. Activating this spirit, this warrior spirit is reflected in the form of a faint blue hue over the user’s body, enhancing his blade’s spiritual abilities. This aura extends some of the Hagakure’s mystical abilities to it’s wielder, allowing them to be able to enhance their forms to mitigate the effects of damage, spending spiritual health to block physical damage. Being able to spend up to 100 health, the user is able to negate up to the same amount of damage. Anything higher than this and the user will take full damage as well as force the Health System drawbacks to trigger which, through usage of Bushi Katagi, normally do not trigger. This aura also augments the user’s Kashoki ability and allows him to target spiritual entities regardless of state, form, or realm. Should the user be capable of detecting a spiritual target, this blade will allow him to target them with Kashoki. Bushi Katagi allows Kashoki to not only target spiritual entities but also suppress them into the sword, augmenting his next Kashoki attack with the effects of the previously targeted spiritual entity.

Note: Gunki Monogatari is a passive ability always in effect, augmenting their effects. These effects cannot be mitigated unless by Yin or Yang based abilities.
Note: Should Bushi Katagi be used, then the cooldown rate for Kashoki is reduced to once per turn. However after Bushi Katagi ends, this can only be used once every 3 turns for the remainder of the battle. Should a second use of Bushi Katagi occur and end, Kashoki will only be usable once every 4 turns.
Note: Bushi Katagi requires the user to have at least 50 health before he can trigger it. It can only be used twice a battle, lasting 3 turns each use. Should the user’s sacrificed health leave him with less than 25, then this technique will automatically end regardless of how much has been blocked. The user is capable of using this as a blue barrier that blocks the same amount of damage for multiple allies, covering up to 6 meters. This can only be done with allies and not solo fights. Barrier use prevents further use of Bushi Katagi and lasts a single turn.
Note: Health spent to defend cannot be regenerated nor restored by the user or his Creation/Summonings or Tools. Another Ninja must heal the user in order for the health to return. However, he will not experience Fatigue or Health System drawbacks until his health is lowered by outside methods.
Note: Counts as the user’s CW. Cannot be paired with other CW.

May God bless us all; for they are true and divine…” Aoi was silently praying to herself- but towards the one she worships. Standing on the Iron Bridge, sources from the border patrol radioed in about an intruder waltzing through the lands. No one survived his assaults, and such Aoi was tasked with the elimination of such a threat. With her soul sensory- she detected the foreigner as he was on the other side of the bridge approaching. She relaxed herself as she turned to meet his gaze, unbothered a level of annoyance clearly knitting into her brow. “Have you no shame?” she asked first as she inhaled and exhaled.

Senseless slaughter…and I can only assume no remorse either. You’re a shinobi, aren’t ye!” she grunted, her feet buckling into the ground. “I will avenge my fallen brothers and sisters…” she huffed. While she can tell he was strong, she knew not to underestimate shinobi; their trickery would easily lead to the demise of a Samurai, but Aoi was different. She glistened her body prior to this encounter with chakra blades faintly floating around her person as she became a ‘human sword’. “As common courtesy, shall I get ye name? It’s appropriate that I at least have it for the headstone after this!

Now quickly, she would have raised her right arm- as she then quickly brought it down in an attempt to cut down her opponent. From the distance, one can only assume she was doing something else- but in reality with her mastery over kenjutsu- the range of her techniques increased allowing her to easily catch her opponent by surprise.

As she does this; she quickly activates another technique which allows her footing to shift- as she floats above the ground by a few inches, allowing her to essentially ‘skate’ across the terrain. Once done, she would have attempted to quickly rush in towards her opponent to close the distance. “Form of the Fire God!” she said, slashing her hand in a diagonal path, releasing a chakra blade made of fire towards the opponent- slowing down as she entered short range to avoid hitting herself.

(Kenjutsu: Ichimonji) - Sword Technique: Straight-line
Type: Offensive
Rank: B-S
Range: Short (Mid via Kenjutsu Specialist)
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage: 40-80 (80 + 20 via JoTS + 10 via Body AP = 110)
Description: A simple blow delivered with one's sword in a straight line, usually an overhead strike. Capable of shattering stone and severing trees with one strike, mastery of this simple technique is necessary on the path of becoming a master swordsman, and variations of it exist in almost any school of swordsmanship.

Speed rave (Issanniushi)
Rank; A
Type; Supplementary
Range; Short-Long
Chakra cost; 30
Damage points; N/a
Description; A sword fighting style that puts a large emphasis on overwhelming enemies with wide-ranged, speed-based combos. The user releases large amounts ki from his body and utilizes it all to mainly increase his speed, the magnitude of the ki slightly levitates the user above ground. The mode is wideranged andspeed is particularly raised upto these basis, the user will require a wide area to move at, attacking from different directions.
(Erementaru Samurai Guntou no Jutsu) Elemental Samurai Sabre Technique
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage: 60 + 20 via JoTS + 10 via Body = 90
Description: When Samurai learned how to imbue their swords with elemental chakras, it allowed them to more readily combat the diverse arsenal of Shinobi more easily. Employing the same concept of chakra flow as the Samurai Sabre Technique, this technique envelopes the user's blade in an elemental shroud of a single element, to which shape transformation can be applied, as in the parent technique. This jutsu could be considered equivalent in every aspect to its predeccessor other than it allows for elemental usage. This technique can clash with Ninjutsu of an equal or lower strength, applying for elemental strengths and weaknesses.
*Note: Only useable by Samurai bios.
*Not: Unlike the parent technique where multiple instances of the technique can be sustained at one time (one on each sword), multiple instances of this technique can only be sustained if they are of the same elemental nature.
Note: Can only be used 5 times.

Orochimaru activates his sensory abilities in and instant. The lady slash down and with an extension her speciality she extended the range so he activates his boost increasing his speed to 20 to evade the slash with ease. He dodged to his right completely missing him.

(Chakra Henkanshi no Jutsu) - Chakra Sensing Technique
Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 15 (- 5 per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This is a very advanced of advancing the ability to feel and sense chakra. The technique allows the user to concentrate and detect someone's chakra. Users can use this to determine the nature of a jutsu used as well as sense masses of chakra. The use of this can be compared to Sharingan's brutish level of sensory, able to sense collection of chakra but not the level of clarity and precision Byakugan has.
Note: Can only be used by bios with Sensory ability.
Note: After having on a bio for 1 month, users gain the ability to activate Sensory passively.

(ZX Basuta: Hienkyaku) ZX Buster: Flying Swallow Feet
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short to Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage: N/A
Description: A movement based technique, Flying Swallow Feet works by focusing chakra into the soles of the user’s feet, super-charging the chakra-metal present in their shoes. Since there is less of the chakra pathway focused in the user’s feet than other locations on the body, this helps the chakra metal amplify any chakra passed through it that’s used for the ZX Buster style. More specifically, Flying Swallow Feet allows bursts of chakra to be fired from the user’s feet that can be used to accelerate short distances (known as “dashing”). Dashing can be done either in the air or on the ground and helps as it allows the user to put more momentum behind their strikes. When dashing, a visible burst of chakra is seen from the user’s feet, and they tend to have an “afterimage” while moving at doubled speed; this comes about simply a trick of the eye, and is nothing special. As the chakra metal will retain its “super-charge,” and once activated, this technique does not deactivate but lasts a turn.

Orochimaru notices another release but this time it’s fire from the look and the sensing ability of his chakra sensory. He turns his lower half into that of a snake and moves around to his right again. He moves to the right and then towards the lady holding his right hand out aiming to capture her.

( Surizā Hebi Modo ) - Slithering Snake Mode
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 15
Damage: N/A
Description: The user turns the lower half of their body into a snake's tail, which greatly increases their speed and agility by double. An alternative version is Orochimaru shedding his skin, revealing a new body that already has a snake's tail.
Note: Can only be used by Orochimaru.

I truly wish it didn’t have to end like this…” Aoi said, as she watched the slithering monster approaching her at quite the speed. With his arm stretched out to reach for her- she sighed as she quickly pressed her feet into the stone surface. As her muscles tensed, she prepared with a watchful eye and timed it accordingly. She warned him after all, and without word she would have stepped forward with immediate speed as he entered into two meters of her. “Improvised Technique: Swordless Iaido!” she said with a blink of an eye as she replicated the Iaido with her arm. This allowed her to quickly zip past him at twice her base speed, slashing through his extended arm and cleaving his body clean in half. She would appear a meter behind him, as she swiped her arm to the left side as blood splattered across the dirt.

Seems I won’t be able to fulfill what I wished to do…” she said sighing; turning to meet the gaze of the ninja if he wasn’t already dead by now. She wasn’t dumb, as ninjutsu is a vastly wide and powerful field- and she was certain even if she landed her strike, he would have some kind of healing technique possibly.


(Iaidō: Zen no Idō) - Art of Quick Draw and Re-sheathing the Sword: Moving Zen (Passive)
Rank: N/A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra: N/A (-10 for each iaijutsu performed)
Damage: N/A
Description: Over the years, Samurai had often practiced Iaidō based on the understanding that it is an almost ritualistic form of combat, born from practices that strive to impart the morals of a classical warrior such as building a spiritually harmonious being possessed of high intellect, sensitivity, and resolute will. While this is correct, the root teachings of the art were lost over time; in truth, the purpose of Iai is founded on the principle of being in the psychological state of the present and responding to an attack before striking with speed. Thus, Zen no Idō reintroduces this concept into modern day Iaidoka. This is a skill that is taught to masters of the art who have completed all forms of Iai training and who have maximized their reflexes in regards to drawing and re-sheathing the sword. In essence, after training to increase their proficiency in applying rapid and sudden movements while performing iaijutsu, it allows the Iaidoka to inherently evade incoming techniques within reason while simultaneously executing any Iaidō techniques they use. By fueling more chakra into their movements during the ritual of Iaidō, they can move in any direction at a slightly increased speed (x2, equal to that of Leg Weight speed) prior to or during the use of Iaidō. The limitations are that they may only use this speed to travel in any direction within five meters of their original position, and once the Iaidō technique is complete or stopped, Zen no Idō immediately ceases.
Restrictions:
Note: Must be posted in the samurai's biography.
Note: No other techniques besides those revolving around Iai can be used while Zen no Idō is active.
Note: This is a passive trait that automatically activates prior to or during the execution of any Iaidō based technique; reserved only for those who hold true mastery over the art (must state Iaidō as a specialization in one's biography), once learned, Zen no Idō comes naturally and without thought, in a manner akin to the Shinobi's Water Walking skill.
( Iaidō ) - Art of Quick Draw and re-sheathing the sword
Rank: A - Forbidden (A)
Type: Offensive / Defensive
Range: Short (Mid)
Chakra: 30 - 50 (30 + 10 = 40)
Damage: 60 - 90 (60 + 20 via Journey + 10 via Body = 90)
Description: Iaidō is a form of kenjutsu where the user utilizes his chakra to quickly draw the blade extremely fast to strike before re-sheathing it. This method prevents enemies from using hand seals, thus preventing them from using Ninjutsu, making it highly effective against ninja. At A rank, this technique is capable of preventing more than 2 Hand Seals from being chained together. S rank prevents from than one seal from being completed while Forbidden ranked usage is capable of preventing even one handseal but can only be used twice a battle.
Note: Can only be used by Samurai biographies.
Note: A rank can only be used three times while S rank can only be used twice.

As such she waited but instead now she nourished her legs with an ample amount of chakra in order to further increase her taijutsu prowess with her legs.
