(Doton: Doryukatsu) - Earth Release: Earth Flow Divide
Rank: C-A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 15-30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will first perform the required hand seals Rabbit โ Boar โ Rat โ Horse โ Tiger โ Snake and slamming the hands on the ground, the user can, by flowing concentrated chakra into the Dragon Veins flowing underground, tear the earth apart, creating large chasms by raising the earth in two oposite sides in the desired location and then splitting that piece of earth through the center. The length, width, direction, and curve of the chasm are all up to the user. Manipulating the Dragon Veins requires fine chakra control, but if one has such skill, they can use this technique to divide the space between the enemy and their own team in two, destroy enemy camps or defences, and even to attack.
Note: This does not split the earth appart directly to cause opponents to fall in the fissure.
After doing the required hand seals and placing their hands on the ground they concentrate chakra into the dragon veins of the ground and split the ground apart. The user has full control how and where they want the earth to be torn, this is very efficient jutsu to change the terrain in your favor. For example splitting the ground between you and the opponent this can stop a fast opponent from getting in close as well as push them back. A problem with the jutsu is it takes some time to perform as well as execute, this can easily leave you open for attacks. If their is a dramatic terrain change you can use this to manipulate it in your favor. As shown in the anime the trees were filled with Amaterasu flames, Yamato split the earth apart where they flames where so they can bypass them unharmed. Depending on how much chakra you add the larger it will be.
(Doton: Tsuchi Douyou no Hira) โ Earth Release: Earth Shaking Palm
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary/Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: After performing snake hand seal the user slams their hand on the ground. The result is that the ground becomes heavily turned up with chunks of rubble popping out of the ground. This technique is used as a means to distract opponents to either create an escape or follow through with a surprise attack although it can also do some damage or be udes to destroy enemy earth techniques of equal rank and bellow.
A basic deception attack, after doing the hand seal and slamming their hand on the ground. The ground ahead of the user and up to mid-range begins to shake slightly, which will not hurt the balance but its what happens. Chunks of rocks will pop out very quickly. This is meant to shock or decieve the opponent in thinking its an attack where it really does not, so the opponent will react and go on the defensive or change their stance. You can quickly attack right after you slam your hand on the ground making it a nice jutsu for combo. You can also flee the area if needed in the NW.
(Doton: Kengan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Fist Rock Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: After performing the snake โ Seal of Confrontation and then by encasing their arm in rock, the user can deal a powerful hardened punch against an opponent while being protected from direct contact with their target. If necessary, the weight of the rock can be increased to further increase the punch's destructive power through the Earth Release: Added Weight Technique or the Earth Release: Super Added Weight Technique.
Okay the user will send doton chakra through his arm encasing it with pure rock. With it the opponent is able to block techniques as well as deliver hard punches. Great for short range battle and simple to use, its purpose is simple as well. It has two hand seals. Your speed on the arm though is slowed down due to the extra weight. Also when you progress through doton you will be able to learn to specific techniques which can increase your weight and have a more destructive punch.
many apologies for the late reply, thanks for not dropping me.
Perform the technique: Upon hearing senpais instructions, i gather a huge amount of chakra in my body and perform the nescessary six handseals, at the same time, using chakra manipulation i transform my chakra into Doton, before slamming my hands to the ground, releasing my chakra and gathering it in the veins of the earth and causing the ground about 10 meters from me to split apart.
Creative uses/strengths: A great technique that can go up to long range and be used practicly anywhere in the field. Not sure about this part but it may be possible to use this beneath a watersource (lake, river etc) to split the ground below, sending the water deep down and out of range for the enemy to use.
Drawbacks/counters: Not sure there is a way to "counter" since the technique itself dont attack the oponent, its more of a supplementary but the biggest drawbacks would be the six handseals.
Perform the technique: I gather a great amount of chakra and perform the one nescessary snake handseal as i, at the same time manipulate my chakra and transform it into doton. as i have the right amount i release it a bit away from me on the ground by slamming my hands, causing the ground there to slightly shake and simoultaniously causing chunks of rock to appear.
Creative uses/strengths: A great technique for a combo, for example possible to distract the oponent, making them focus on below whilst you attacking from above. also a great midrange technique, simple and fast to use
Drawbacks/counters: donot really cause any major damage to the oponent, mostly used for distraction purposes, and the technique only goes up to midrange so depending on where the enemy stands, it may be less or not effective at all.
Perform the technique: I gather a fair amount of chakra in my arm and perform the nescessary handseals before transforming my chakra to doton, by using chakra manipulation. as i have the right amount i release it to my arm and surround it with harden rock as its covered i rush towards a dummy and punch it with the same hand, causing major damage to it.
Creative uses/strengths: A great offensive technique, able to crack a few ribs or so if striking the right place. at the same time a good defenceive one too, can be used as shield against kunais, shurikens and minor sword slashes etc.
Drawbacks/counters: Enemy can, for example by using a chidori or raikiri, chop of the entire hand if user is uncarefull and the weight of the rock will probably slow the users speed down.
