Alrighty then! First tell me everything you know about Doton, what are its properties? Is it mainly offensive or defensive? How is it used? What are its strength and weaknesses?

Earth Release(Doton) is one of the basic elemental nature transformation techniques and allows the user to manipulate the surrounding earth for offensive and defensive purposes or create it; be it dirt, mud, or rock.
Earth Release techniques have the ability to change the strength and composition of the earth from being as hardas metal to as soft as clay,as well as manipulating their density, making them heavier or lighter.This includes allowing the user to travel through ground and rock in various ways which can be essential for both transportation and for setting up attacks or creating defences or for offence. This makes earth techniques one of the most versatile of the elemental techniques. Pre-existing earth is not necessary though, for the user can create it with their own chakra.Earth Release affinities are the most common amongst the ninja of Iwagakure, and is commonly affiliated with the Snake seal and/or slamming their palm onto the ground.
Earth is strong against water because earth naturally contains water or absorbs water to the point when it becomes muddy then dries up but weak against lightning because it can easily travel through and break the ground apart.
Earth Release was shown being used inconjunction with Fire Release.
It seems that Explosion Release chakra can be infused into clay using the the Iwagakure Kinjutsu to form explosive clay. This clay is earth-based, and is weak to Lightning Release.
Earth-natured chakra is a component of the following kekkei genkai:Wood Release and Lava Release.
It is also a component of the kekkei tōta:Dust Release.
Earth Release is suggested to be related to Crystal Release due to Guren's crystal dragons being shattered byKakashi'sLightning Cutter[14]andKibahaving mistaken the actual element for an Earth Release technique.[15]

Whilst I am always for students using sources to help them with answering the questions, a blatant copy and paste will not suffice. xD Come on, you know you can do better than that.

Earth Release

Doton, meaning Earth Release, is one of the basic 5 nature transformation techs and allows the user to manipulate the surrounding Earth and use it to their benefit. The entire structure of terrains can be changed within seconds. It is a very sturdy element, which can endure the harshest weather conditions. The user can change the structure of the Earth, either he can make it super hard or as soft as clay as well as manipulating their density, making them heavier or lighter. It is one of most versatile elements among the basic 5.

Weaknesses
  • Weak against Lightning, as Lightning easily cuts through Earth.
Strengths
  • Strong against water, because Earth easily absorbs water.
Why I Like It: Well, I like this element, as it's one of the most versatile elements out of the basic 5. Plus, the terrain is not a problem, as Earth is present everywhere. It also has very less weaknesses, and can be used as a great defense, and also can reduce the intensity of certain attacks like meteors. Also, Doton can be used to manipulate the ground beneath and around the opponent, allowing for limitless potential in creating successful combos. Last, but not the least, the user can conceal themselves in the ground, thereby surprise attacking the opponents.

Concept In Battle

Well, Earth Release is a pretty great element to use in battle. Most of its uses are for defense as Doton jutsus make excellent defenses. It's great for catching opponents off guard too. They're mainly offensively used in combos. Also, they can be used as an armor surrounding the hand which increases the punching power of the user. Also, users like Oonoki can lighten or make things heavier, as seen when Oonoki lightened Madara's super giant Meteor.

Users

Deidara, Oonoki, Akatsuchi, Kakuzu, Kakashi, Kurotsuchi, Jirobo, Hiruzen, Hashirama, Danzo, Mei, Madara, Kabuto, Nagato, Yamato, Jiraya, Muu, Kisame, Kitsuchi, Orochimaru.

  • Hey don't forget this though

    Earth Versatility

    Earth is also very versatile like water, it can be shaped into many things and has ALOT of Jutsu just like water because of how many possibilities the Element earth has in manipulation. It can create simple ninja tools or then simple structures in the shape of what ever the user wants, dragons, dog walls or other cool things. Though I wouldn't know any of this cause I copied and pasted it all from someone elses training session.

Earth is one of the basic 5 element which deals with the user manipulating already existing rocks or create new ones through their chakra, Earth users have been shown to be able to change the characteristics of earth easily like making it soft,making it hard,making it heavier, making it lighter
The users of the elements are most in the land of stone(Iwagakure ),Earth is usually used for defensive measures 90% of the time,since its a solid stopping all other elements from passing. Earth users have been shown to be strong and are agile and mostly slow
The earth element is strong against water since earth absorbs water and also weak against lightning as this crumbles the earth
Earth is used with water for wood release
With fire for lava release
Strong users of earth include oonoki,Mu,Hashirama,Yamato and Kakashi


Hope that was o.k

See, that wasn't so bad now was it? xD

Alright *points at a rock*

Go upon that rock and sit on top of it, cross your legs and close your eyes, lay your hands on your lap. Breathe in slowly, and begin to meditate. Flow your chakra from throughout your body, and into the stone, feel the hard rock solid structure of it, feel the rigid texture that it carries, and begin to understand with it. Tell me, how do you feel?

Well done!

For now, since you have meditated and found your Earth chakra, get off the rock and come next to me. Afterwards place your palms onto the floor and begin by sending your Earth chakra into it, by changing the structure of the Earth, forcefully cause two pillars to erupt out of the ground with your palms on top of each one respectfully.

Hearing his sensei's words,Raido simply walks next to him and places his palms on the ground concentrating a large amount of chakra into his hands, he starts thinking of the feel of earth beneath him subconsciously turning it into doton chakra which he then flows into the ground forcefully changing the shape of the earth and causing it to emerge out of the ground to form two earth pillars with my palms on both

*Crouches down and analyses the pillars* Hummm, they appear to look good on the outside, let's see then...

*Touches one pillar, where upon it breaks apart forming rubble that spreads across the ground*

Ahh! Let's give it another try! Come on, more chakra, give it your all. YOU CAN DO THIS!

Hearing his sensei's words and the sound of the crumbling pillar,Raido could his heartbeat increasing as he didn't want to disappoint his sensei any longer ,Raido attempts the jutsu again, by placing his palms on the ground concentrating a large amount of chakra into his hands,again he starts thinking of the feel of earth beneath him as this calms his increasing eath beat subconsciously turning it into doton chakra which he then flows into the ground forcefully changing the shape of the earth and compressing a large amount of earth into a smaller potion with greater density, strength and weight after which i while still concentrating manipulate the dense earth to emerge out of the ground to form two earth pillars from under both my palms

INSPECTION TIME *crouches down again, punching a pillar, though the structure remains intact and it doesn't break*
Excellent! I'm impressed. Let's get more advanced now.

*Puts one palm onto the ground and raises an Earth pillar, just like you did. However, after doing so, my pillar begins to soften, almost like it is melting. You can see that the pillar is gradually becoming smaller, and then it begins to shape itself, changing itself into the shape of a sword.*

What I did right there, is basic manipulation of the texture of the Earth. You see, by supplying more chakra into the pillar, you are able to even change its form, its shape, all based upon your will. You can even change the weight, but that requires a jutsu we will go through later on. Right now, I want you to copy what I just did. Supply some more chakra into the Earth pillars you just created, and in doing so, soften the Earths structure, almost so that it's like a jelly. Then, by using basic shape manipulation, change the shapes of your pillars. Forming the one in your right hand into a sword, and the one in your left hand into a shield. Describe how you do each one individually, for example the large surface area that a shield has, and the sharp edge a sword has.

Hearing his sensei's speak, Raido couldnt help but smile due to the happiness he was experiencing with the determination,he starts by placing his palms on the ground concentrating a large amount of chakra into his hands,again he starts thinking of the feel of earthbeneath him as this calms his increasing eath beat subconsciously turning it into doton chakra which he then flows into the ground forcefully changing the shape of the earth and compressing a large amount of earth into a smaller potion with greater density, strength andweight after which i while still concentrating manipulate the dense earth to emerge out of the ground to form two earth pillars from under both my palms after which with i start shape manipulating with my imagination, i mould the earth pillar to my right into the exact replica of the sword on my back by carving out through the use of my chakra inside the pillar the slightly broad handle and the thin and sharp blade itself,as i do that the earth surrounding the sword crumbles leaving the sword standing as i hold it with my right hand,I continue my shape manipulating the earth pillar by making the earth as soft as clay and carve out a shield from it highlighting the flat,broad and denser part of the shield after which i return the shield to its normal state,giving it the strength

Do my eyes deceive me O___O Dayuuum, well done!
Well done, you just learnt your first Doton jutsu!

(Doton No Jutsu) - Earth Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Descripton: Creates small pillars of earth, small tools, and small shields of earth
What we did here is merely just a fragment of the Earth's manipulation, this is an extremely versatile jutsu because it allows so many actions to occur. You can use this as shields, you can make weapons just like we did, you can use the pillar itself to hurl the opponent in the air, or even strike onto him. Always remember what I told you, the Earth is your friend, but enough about that, since I will test you later on.

For now, we will skip the next jutsu according to the list, since it is part of a combo that involves a C-rank, and we will go back to it later. For now, I want you to re-perform what you just did, however to a greater extent. *Throws you a rock* Catch it, and send your Earth chakra into it. What you did with the pillars was to make them smaller, take chunks off in order to fulfill the shapes you wanted, but this time it will be harder. I want you to change the shape of the rock into that of a staff, it must be long and not-so thick, with a spear at the tip, make sure to keep the staff's form, do not let it crumble away as you stretch the thick rock.

*Raises an Earth pillar with a dot in the middle facing you a few meters away* And once you're done with making the spear, using careful timing and precise accuracy, strike the dot in the middle of the pillar with your spear.

Hearing his sensei's words Raido was so happy he is learning his first jutsu, grabbing the rock,he takes a very deep breathe ,he starts by forming a fist around the rock concentrating a large amount of chakra which should be sufficient for the jutsu into his hand,again he starts thinking of the feel of earth beneath his legs,thinking about the sword and shield he created, giving him the determination and mental strength,he calms himself to the point at which he starts hearing his own heart beat subconsciously turning it into doton chakra which he then flows into the rock using his chakra to compress it forcing it into a long rod while manipulating the rod into a more straight rod manipulating a pointed edge to extend from the rod,seeing the created rod, i using my knowledge of projectile, i throw the spear hitting the point and piercing deep into the pillar

*The spear impales onto the dot and sticks onto it firmly*

Splendoodle.
(Doton: Gansetsukon) - Earth Release: Rock Section Cane
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary/Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: This technique allows the user to take a small chunk of rock and turn it into the shape of a staff. The user can then use it as a melee weapon or throw it with pinpoint accuracy at their opponent. A variation of this technique allows the user to create several staffs and launch them at the target, but with less accuracy.

Do you have any questions on the D-ranks that you've learned so far?

Either way, the next jutsu will be our first C-rank, and is one of my favorite Earth jutsus. *Performs a single hand sign* Repeat the hand sign I just showed you, whilst channeling your Earth chakra throughout your body and into the ground. In doing so, cause two gigantic walls of rock to raise around your opponent. The walls are reflected of each other, meaning they can either be formed to your opponent's front and back, or both sides. And once done doing that, use your chakra to cause the wall to come together, and your opponent will be caught in that movement, being crushed.

*Summons a clone that begins running into many directions, changing them in quick manners*

The real killer in this jutsu, is being able to time your movement, and make sure when to exactly raise the Earth, since my clone is running around, you have to time yourself to exactly catch him off guard. This can be done by manipulating small forms of rock, just like you are supposed to do with the two ''big'' walls, raise some small walls that will just make his feet stumble, unbalancing him where the main attack will come into place.

Hearing his sensei's words and knowing he has learned all D rank,Raido was so happy he is learning his first C jutsu,seeing his sensei's clone running around ,he takes a very deep breathe, making sure to be so quiet,i close my eyes,concentrating on my legs,making me hear vibrations of the ground as the clone moves and his heartbeat concentrating a large amount of chakra which should be sufficient for the jutsu into his legs,again he starts thinking of the feel of earth beneath his legs,thinking about the spear he made,giving him more determination and mental strength,he calms himself turning his chakra into doton chakra and releases,as the clone was moving, he simply felt the vibrations getting louder meaning the clone was going faster, immediately i manipulate the earth in front of the clone forming 2 pillars like i did before few centimeters in front of the clone making the clone lose balance and impossible to change direction , both to the right and left,as the clone's first leg gets into the range of the pillars, i simply command the pillars to smash,
Due to the clone being faster than the pillars, The whole body will be in-between at the point of contact, smashing the clone making it revert to dust
