Alice thought for a moment and rolled up her right sleeve, revealing her arm. She pointed at the area, it being roughly on her upper shoulder.
"Alright. Would you like a Tattoo to accompany your Contract? If so then where would you like it?"

Alice thought for a moment and rolled up her right sleeve, revealing her arm. She pointed at the area, it being roughly on her upper shoulder.
She nodded to him, nipping her finger once more as the blood ran down after getting her tattoo. She would begin by making the necessary hand seals and slamming her hands onto the surface of the earth. This would call forth a small puddles worth of water, summoning a simple Thoracica barnacles onto the ground in front of her. The shell around it was quite odd, as a feather like appendage appeared from the center of it. Alice slightly freaked out but this is what she signed up for - might as well get use to…
Tasuke nodes and takes out his inkpot and brush, he removes the cork from the top with his mouth and lightly dips the ink with the tip of the brush - infusing it with chakra. He starts to paint the spot with the required tattoo. It took a bit with his precision at work and then he placed his hand on the scroll and the other on her tattoo. "Alright. That's that."
"Right, to start with summon a simple Barnacle Shell. You know what that looks like right?"
She nodded to him, nipping her finger once more as the blood ran down after getting her tattoo. She would begin by making the necessary hand seals and slamming her hands onto the surface of the earth. This would call forth a small puddles worth of water, summoning a simple Thoracica barnacles onto the ground in front of her. The shell around it was quite odd, as a feather like appendage appeared from the center of it. Alice slightly freaked out but this is what she signed up for - might as well get use to…
Here we go!
She regained composure as she presented her first summon.
Alice signed as she thought she was already doing great...but an entire community of them? She might as well flee now and keep her tattoo but regardless - she restarted the process and this time as she slammed her hands she summoned forth an entire community of them all across the surface around her
"There we go Alice, Nice work." Tasuke crouches down and picks up the Barnacle that she had summoned, inspecting it. His inquiring face became a grin as everything seemed to check out; the former kage allowed the Gadget Barnacle to spread it's tendrils, a few more popping out before it straight itself, holding itself up like a spider, she shell as it's body.
"Now that you have done this simple task, do it again but try to summon many of these barnacles, picture them all together as one... community."
Alice signed as she thought she was already doing great...but an entire community of them? She might as well flee now and keep her tattoo but regardless - she restarted the process and this time as she slammed her hands she summoned forth an entire community of them all across the surface around her
Alice takes a moment to think on this, only to realize what he meant. She turned her attention towards the Barnacles that as so as they are summoned they summoned- they burrow into the ground its almost as if she has mental connection with them...actually she does!
(Kuchiyose : Bānakuru-wan) - Summoning : Barnacle Bay
Type: Supplementary
Rank: S
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: N/A
Description:
The user can either do the normal summoning method or bite their thumb, wipe it on the summoning tattoo and then slam the ground. These are Acrothoracica type barnacles and they are summoned into the ground where they burrow into it, creating thousands of little slits in the earth all up to the max of Mid-Range all around the user. This summon uses its tendrils by sticking them out of their burrowed homes and anything that brushes passed they sense, sending the information back to the contract signer(s) of the disturbance in that area, their tendrils can be damaged but they usually retreat into their burrows if anything damaging starts to spread across the ground (like fire) and when it has dispersed they reappear. These barnacles disallow the opponent from using any jutsu using chakra that come from the ground up to A-Rank in their vicinity because they now have complete control of the earth stopping any chakra from above the surface.
- Can only be Summoned Once
- Lasts 4 turns on the battlefield.
- If the Opponent uses an S-Rank Earth Jutsu from the ground it is weakened to an A-Rank
The Barnacles were summoned all across the field, burrowed into the earth their little tendrils very hard to see could only be slightly noticed. Tasuke grinned at his student, "Nice... upon summoning the 'Barnacle Bay', what do you first notice and feel?"
"Exactly correct, they also stop most ground based attacks. Lets move on to something more exciting, i want you to do the same and summon many barnacles in one cluster in front of you - though after swiping blood on your tattoo perform three hand seals."Alice takes a moment to think on this, only to realize what he meant. She turned her attention towards the Barnacles that as so as they are summoned they summoned- they burrow into the ground its almost as if she has mental connection with them...actually she does!
Well’, firstly they have these...tendrils sticking out of the ground which I assume they use to sense thing above the ground, but also...they are telepathically linked to me - telling me everything that happens when touched by the tendril...almost like a hivemind with me as its queen!
Doing as told, Alice would take some more of the blood , wiping onto her tattoo. She then weaves the needed hand seals as she slams her palm onto the ground, summoning more Barnacles but in a cluster of one this time"Exactly correct, they also stop most ground based attacks. Lets move on to something more exciting, i want you to do the same and summon many barnacles in one cluster in front of you - though after swiping blood on your tattoo perform three hand seals."
Doing as told, Alice would take some more of the blood , wiping onto her tattoo. She then weaves the needed hand seals as she slams her palm onto the ground, summoning more Barnacles but in a cluster of one this time
Alice was quite shocked at the summons abilities but still impressed by it. She would take one of the shells from her friend as looked at it. Every hard in texture, but she willed her chakra into the shell and this would cause through shape manipulation an elongated spike to grow while still being attached to the shell outwards, roughly 1 meter in length
Alice manages to summon a large amount of thoracica type barnacles (shell type) which are all merged together, water swirls around the summon as it is created on the field. It opens up into the shape of a man, it's face with what looked to be a mask of a demon will sharp horns.
"You calle....Who is this?"
"New Signer."
"Do you only sign on Females that you find attra..."
Tasuke quickly interrupts with an embarrassed and loud laugh, "HAHAHAH GOOD ONE OREGON, GOOD ONE. Could you show her what you can do?"
Tasuke takes a few steps back and Oregon watches him. Tasuke draws his Katana and charges performing a forward thrust and in response Oregon's torso splits in half vertically, quite the site as the Katana went between the split and it suddenly snapped together katching the blade in it's body. Oregon's arms as his body caught the katana thrust forward and grabbed Tasuke by his short, falling backwards whilst planting his feet on his torso - sending him flying backwards as he did a backward roll and kicked. Once Tasuke was gone, Oregon morphed into a four legged creature that ran across the ground at higher speeds, catching up with Tasuke by stretching it's limb out and catching Tasuke by the ankle in mid air, pulling him back and catching him before he could get hurt. Oregon morphs back and takes the sword out of his body, giving it back to Tasuke.
"Thanks." He then holds it out the Alive, the Katana with Barnacles stuck on it after Oregon had trapped it - he'd obviously detached some from his body and had them stick to the blade.
"We have a few techniques to show you regarding the use of most Shells giving you access to use them whenever you have even a single barnacle on the field. Try manipulating the Shell or the tendrils a little, make em grow a bit and I'll give you some hints."
(Kuchiyose : Oregon) - Summoning : Oregon
Type: Summon
Rank: S
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: N/A
Description:The User bites their thumb and wipes it on their tattoo, performing a string of three hand seals and then slamming their hands on the ground which creates a couple metre tall tornado of water with 1 metre diameter anywhere within mid-range except around the opponent - this is harmless and purely cosmetic the water disappears and reveals the summon. The Summon is basically a very large amount of ordinary sized Thoracica type barnacles clumped together to form a humanoid shape, 7 foot tall and a strong looking build. The mastermind of these Lesser Barnacles is the Boss of the Summoning Contract and he is able to command them to do his bidding, 'Oregon' the Barnacle Boss resides in the Head of the man representing the brain and in form he is a very large Barnacle that has outgrown it's shell and so is protected by the other Shells. Oregon wears a mask that looks ever so much like a demon, the mask is a hard calcite shell which is what Thoracica Barnacles are made out of; the mask has two large curved horns which a protrude from his forehead which can be used to impale an opponent - the mask is shaped into a stern face. He also has a tail which is just an extended barnacle tendril he has full control of. Oregon has a greater intelligence and is basically the one whom trained the first Barnacles passing down his knowledge. He can talk or communicate mentally to the Contract signer.
Oregon is a Taijutsu Specialist and he has the ability to perform Taijutsu of up to A-Rank and gets a +10 Damage boost because of his extremely hard body. Since his body is made up of many thoracica type barnacles which have their tendrils also spread out through the body to keep together - means he can be pretty versatile. He can pull apart his own body (except the head) to dodge oncoming attacks like punches or swords and then quickly clamp it shut again, the tendrils of the many Barnacles stretch to allow him to separate his torso or other sections so that he is not hit. When Oregon clamps shut like this, it is strong enough to snap a blade and so can crush bone pretty easily whilst at the same time Barnacles detach from inside his body and attack onto the limb of the enemy if he decides to let them free. The Barnacles that are left on the opponent's limbs can be then set up for the Barnacle Jutsu, "Body of the Thoracica". Oregon can also use this to stretch his limbs or body, making them much longer so he can punch and kick much further, or to further ensnare an opponent. He has one final use of pulling his body apart and that is to be able to completely cover his opponent with his body of barnacles and slowly crush him, this however takes about two turns to actually do some critical damage and it basically becomes the opponent's armour; if Nagashi is used on them it wouldn't be effective and would crush the opponent much faster due to the contraction caused by paralysis.
Oregon has the ability to change his body structure further by changing from a man to a four legged creature very quickly, the only reason he does this is to close distance between his opponent and can do so pretty fast. When running on all fours like this he can close the mid-range gap in seconds but it still trackable and when he goes to attack he quickly changes back into a Man to fight.
He also has a very strong Defense, being made completely out of Thoracica Barnacles it's like being a Walking Piece of Armour, he acts like the S-Rank Earth Hardening Technique in strength except B-Ranks and below have no effect at all. Unless it is Lightning then this immunity only extends to C-Rank and below. He also cannot be effected by Genjutsu of any kind as other Barnacles in his head will take the effect instead of him and because there are many that form the head.
- Oregon can use "Body of the Thoracica" on any Acorn Barnacle on the Field
- Oregon can be summoned with a Weapon made of Calcite Shell, it acts like a normal weapon.
- Oregon separating his body to dodge attacks costs a Move (not if he's doing it to stretch his limb further to attack). He can use this to dodge small scale jutsu as well.
- Oregon changing in the Creature Form to move faster costs a move, changing back doesn't.
- Oregon can only be summoned Once per fight
- Oregon can only last 4 turns on the field
- Must have signed Barnacle Contract

Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short

Damage points: 30 +10
Description: The user grabs the enemy by his shirt and falls backwards, using his weight to produce all the momentum. The user will put one or both of his legs into the targets body, extending them in the correct moment, propelling the enemy backwards, upside down across the battle field.
Alice was quite shocked at the summons abilities but still impressed by it. She would take one of the shells from her friend as looked at it. Every hard in texture, but she willed her chakra into the shell and this would cause through shape manipulation an elongated spike to grow while still being attached to the shell outwards, roughly 1 meter in length
Alice nodded her head as she understood the notes made about the shells. She would then take a moment to mold her water chakra, weaving the needed four hand seals and spew out of her mouth the torrent of water. Within the water was a collection of Barnacles...whattttt
"Yes! remember though it's not you performing that technique it's you feeding chakra into the shell so that they can manipulate it to a higher degree themselves. You can make your own constructs but you have to click your fingers to summon them onto the field. There is also another technique that allows you to utilise the tentacles of the barnacle."
From the shell that she was holding in her hand the tendrils grow and multiple forming into the size of a strong arm and hand that would be the relative size of a human from even such a small shell it was capable of growing a whole limb.
(Fujitsuboātsu : Thoracica no bodi) - Barnacle Arts : Body of the Thoracica
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Rank: C - A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra Cost: 15 - 30
Damage Points: 30 - 60
Description:
All "Thoracica" Type Barnacles can use this, manipulating their shells so that the essentially grow and they become spiked like many needles are protruding from them and this just makes their body more dangerous so they cannot be touched by enemy hands. They can then manipulate to form ninja tools, weapons or other kinds of constructs, though depending on the size of the Barnacle Summoning using this they can only make a certain amount of things.
C-Rank : Can be used by Single Thoracica Barnacles or above and can create small tools like Kunai and Shuriken can be made in singles, Senbon can only be made in threes - since these shells can only be manipulated to an extent, once the form is taken it cannot be changed unless this technique is used again to manipulate it
B-Rank : Can be used by Small Groups of Thoracica Barnacles or above and can create a barrage of Kunai or Shuriken, a wave of Senbon. They can create weapons as big as Spears or even shields all the barnacles would contribute by stemming off their shells to create a large shield. They can create singular pieces of armour like gauntlets, chestplates or masks - can only create one of these.
A-Rank : Can be used by a Community of Barnacles like "Oregon" or above and can fire ordinary-sized swords or large shuriken, create and wield Large weapons like Battleaxes, giant swords, even walls or a group of spikes from the earth (Contact with the earth must be made). The Communities can create full sets of armour.
The barnacle usually creates these tools for the user but they can launch them towards enemies at short range as well if need be. The Launched Shell Tool can stand up to elements however the shells are weak to lightning and strong to water. Like "Gadget Barnacle" the user can use this technique but only by clicking his fingers to summon a weapon within the limits of the chosen rank, the user cannot manipulate the shell though
- Can only be used by Thoracica Type Barnacles and not by barnacles without shell.
- C-Rank only has Short Range, B-Rank is Limited to Mid and A-Rank Long.
- User can only use the A-Rank version four times
- Must have signed Barnacle Summon Contract
- Can only be taught by LonelyAssassinn
(Fujitsuboātsu : Thoracica no bodi) - Barnacle Arts : Legs of the Thoracica
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description:
A Thoracica Barnacle or even a Acrothoracica type Barnacle will focus chakra into their tentacle like limbs, fuelling them with strength and making them much longer and stronger. The limbs will now be capable of stretching up to 5 meters and grabbing a hold of a target that the user wishes for the summon using this jutsu to. Because this is the fleshy part of the barnacle, it isn't as durable as the shells, but because of the extra strength put into the tendrils they can at least with stand B-Rank elemental attacks.
The Barnacles Tentacles can be grouped up and thickened so that they can be a bit more versatile and create fleshy parts to aid barnacles in battle. For example they can expand their tendrils which wrap around one another to form an arm, there are limitation to how large the limbs that are created can be - a single thoracica barnacle can expand it's tendrils enough to make just an arm or a limb the size of a human, whereas a Barnacle Community like "Oregon" can create larger arms or even wings capable of flight, a large tail that can whip prey. Anything bigger can create things proportionate to it's size.
- Can only be used on up to four Barnacles, A-Rank power would be divided between them
- Any Thoracica or Acrothoracica type barnacles can use this
- No Barnacle arts in the same turn
- Grown Tendrils last for 4 turns
"So who are you going to summon next?"
"I have an idea." Tasuke turns back to Alice and grins, "Perform two handseals before swiping blood across your tattoo, there will be a build up of water in your mouth so make sure to spit it out at a target." Tasuke gestures to Oregon who looks at him, his body language suggesting a 'how dare you' reaction.
Alice nodded her head as she understood the notes made about the shells. She would then take a moment to mold her water chakra, weaving the needed four hand seals and spew out of her mouth the torrent of water. Within the water was a collection of Barnacles...whattttt
Doing as told, Alice would bite her thumb once more. She drew the blood onto her tattoo and began to weave the needed hand seals before slamming her palm onto the ground
Tasuke jumps in front of the water, taking the hit and allowing the barnacles to attach to him. He was a bit wet now but that was sexy amritie? "Nice, these little guys can work both attached to an opponent - now when attached to the opponent they will manipulate the wind to push them in any direction you want to stop them performing hand seals up push them into an ability - it cannot be avoided. When summoned on yourself you gain flight passively, you also only spend half your chakra on wind techniques even when they're not attached to you they just have to be on the field." Tasuke starts to float into the air, "I stole your summon huehue."
(Kuchiyose : Fujitsubohantā) - Summoning : Barnacle Hunters
Show
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description:
The user makes 2 hand seals and swipes blood across their barnacle tattoo, they build up a large amount of water in their mouth and shoot it out as a harmless torrent of D-Rank water which would have a group of barnacles that would hit target and attach onto the part they were hit on (the torrent may be harmless but it still pushes the opponent back as it has a little force). Barnacles don't have to be summoned this way, they can be directly summoned onto the User. After the Barnacles Attach to the opponent and use their feather like appendages to beat against the air, manipulating the wind and creating currents that push the opponent towards the user or a desired direction which would also surprise the opponent and can stop them from performing a hand seal - the wind has great force and is like a stream which will push the enemy continuously until the barnacles stop. Barnacles MUST be attached to the opponent to do this the wind causes no damage and cannot be avoided with the Barnacles attached to them.
The Barnacle Hunters also have an ability when they are attached the the USER, they are capable of doing the same thing that can be done with the opponent - pushing them in a direction using the wind, however it's usually for their benefit. of course the continuous wind blast costs a move and can be stopped at any time with the user's will, also the barnacles can maneuver the user in a way which would be very similar to floating/flying, capable of changing direction mid-flight. If they so wish they can make a sharp direction change whilst flying, which would send the user in another direction suddenly costing a turn. They also have another ability to add Wind Chakra into techiques done by the user, meaning they will get a reduction is chakra used by the user (Wind Technique's chakra cost is halved), and they do not have to be stuck the user for this - they can be on the field (like if they missed attaching to the target).
These Barnacles are of the Thoracica "Acorn" kind and have a Calcite Shell so they cannot be killed or removed by simple blades, the opponent can't even cut off the section of clothing they are latched onto as they are actually pressed up against their skin through the clothing using chakra. B-Rank or below elemental ninjutsu cannot break through the shells bar lightning, which is only C-Rank and under, However Paralysis techniques like Nagashi does not affect the Barnacles and they will remain latched onto their opponent - Barnacles cannot be paralyzed.
- Continuous Wind Blast costs a move
- Sharp Turn Maneuver Costs a Turn, though Flight is Passive once Continue Wind Blast is activated once.
- Must have signed the Barnacle Summoning contract and be taught by LonelyAssassin
- Can only be summoned once
- Stay on the field for four turns
Whilst Tasuke messed around floating in the air doing spinz and shit, Oregon facepalmed and addressed alice, "try using the ordinary summoning technique this time."
Doing as told, Alice would bite her thumb once more. She drew the blood onto her tattoo and began to weave the needed hand seals before slamming her palm onto the ground
Alice listened to the leader of the Barnacles contract, wondering what it truly can do. She watched the creature with an odd look - to which it glanced back at her. She smiled and nodded her head, causing the Barbaracle to nod as well. She commanded it , causing water to be pushed from the leg like limbs in order to shoot it from the ground and rock towards Tasuke who was currently in the air minding his own business - the summon would appear over him quite fast as it slammed its powerful steel like claws onto his back thus sending him spiralling towards the ground. The community of Barnacles smiled and poofed away back to the homeland of the Barnacles after completing its task, Alice would idly stroll towards Tasuke who was on the ground and hung over him with a meek smile.You must be registered for see images
She summons what seems to be two rocks, connected with the unmistakable flesh of the barnacles linking them, giving it form - hands and feet with steel claws and extra arms with eyes on their palms. It made a sort of fleshy growl. Oregon spoke;
"This is called a Barbaracle, they are the soldiers of our Army, once they die you can summon a replacement for as many times as you want. They're specialists in water, they shoot torrents from their many arms or just one if you wish to focus the power - also the torrents are strong enough to propel them off of surfaces." Oregon whispers to Alice, "Command Barbaracle, use a combo of some sort and knock Tasuke out of the air."
(Kuchiyose : Barbaracle) - Summoning : Barbaracle
Type: Offensive / Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short / Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description:
The user will perform the ordinary summoning technique or swipe blood on their Barnacle tattoo and summon a tornado of water 2 meters high and 1 meter in diameter on the field within mid range (Similar way "Oregon" is summoned onto the field, water tornado is purely cosmetic) revealing Community of Barnacles that have already made a Piece of Rock their home, work together to become a monstrous creature. It's made up of two rocks, the larger one being the torso and the smaller one being the pelvis area, connecting the two would be regarded as their stomach area connected through the binding of many Barnacle tendrils to become this thick, strong flesh. Barbaracle also has arms and legs made of the strong, thick flesh and at the end of this thick flesh are claws made of Steel which they can use to slash at the enemy with their feet or hands, the barbaracle has four arms altogether. The Barbaracle has a head too which also has steel claws, it is about the size of the average human, just wider.
The Barbaracle is a Water User, capable of expelling torrents of water from it's arms and legs, the water will seem to leak from between their flesh like tendrils to become the torrent of A-Rank water which counts as a move - Barbaracle can split the power of the Water torrent if he wants to shoot it simultaneously from each limb (B-Rank each from two, C-Rank each from four, B-Rank and two C-Rank for 3). The water can even be used in such a way that when Barbaracle is standing they can expel the water from their legs to propel them upwards, however this can only be done if in contact with a surface, if angled correctly he can propel forwards quickly. Even though they are water uses, the earth they made their home can be used as protection like an Earth technique of A-Rank and lower, however they cannot repair it as they do not have an earth affinity. The Flesh can be cut like ordinary Human skin.
Because the Barbaracle is made up of many barnacles, at the end of each limb there is a barnacle which is used as an eye, there is also one in the head. These can be used to Barbaracle's advantage, however when the water technique is used they cannot see until the water subsides, of course they can't see if they're covered up (for example the eyes on the feet will be covered up when standing). The Barbaracle is a Soldier of the Barnacles, there are many Barbaracles that make up the Barnacle Army and another can be summoned if one were to fall in battle and so their special ability is that another Barbaracle can be summoned again later.
- Must Wait 2 turns before summoning Barbaracle again
- A-Rank Water Blast Counts as a move
- Steel Claws are Freeform CQC weapons
- Lasts four turns on the field
Alice listened to the leader of the Barnacles contract, wondering what it truly can do. She watched the creature with an odd look - to which it glanced back at her. She smiled and nodded her head, causing the Barbaracle to nod as well. She commanded it , causing water to be pushed from the leg like limbs in order to shoot it from the ground and rock towards Tasuke who was currently in the air minding his own business - the summon would appear over him quite fast as it slammed its powerful steel like claws onto his back thus sending him spiralling towards the ground. The community of Barnacles smiled and poofed away back to the homeland of the Barnacles after completing its task, Alice would idly stroll towards Tasuke who was on the ground and hung over him with a meek smile.
That’s for stealing my summons
”Jeg hader dig”
Tasuke groaned, "My bad..." He looked up at Alice, "You have a nice rack."
"And there it is." Oregon's fist clenched. Tasuke then disappeared, reverse summoned. "Lets get this over with. Summon another community like me."
”Jeg hader dig”
Alice said in response in her native tongue, as she moved away from Tasuke and then repeating the same process once more, summoning forth a large community of Barnacles once more
