[Doton] Doton with xHoudinii

Akasha · Jun 21, 2014

Firstly I'd gather and mold doton chakra within my body. Upon doing so I'd channel it throughout it whilst focusing most of my chakra into my left foot. Stomping my left foot I'd release the chakra into the ground. Manipulating chakra beneath of your clone, I'd cause small fractures of earth to be ripped through it as to emerge in form of fragments of rocks and earth. As they emerge they'd cause your clone to get into the air whilst making damage if they were to hit him.

This is one pretty useful technique indeed. It's quite quick to be performed and it unables you to get your opponent into the air. This being sad, once your opponent is in the air, his arsenal becomes quite smaller and thus you have better chances against him. When it comes to disadvantages, one might be that by stomping your foot, one would think that you are trying to perform a doton jutsu of sorts and thus it is indication. Also it requires you to be touching earth, as earth itself in this case is going to be the medium for performance of the technique. Using it in battle for making my opponent go into the air or unable him to go underground by causing this fragments of earth to come just beneath of him.

Detective L · Jun 21, 2014

"That's good. Here you go."

"Okay, now we will start with two techniques at a time. First, form the Boar → Ox hand seals, and then place your hand onto the round before you. Send your Earth based chakra into the ground and manipulate it to cause the ground beneath the opponent to cause it to spiral inwards. This would bury them alive or crush them. Much more damaging in rocky based areas like in a cave. Use it to bury my clone."

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"Next manipulate your Earth based chakra to condense the soil and rock in the surrounding area, to sprout out four large spikes. These come from four separate directions, making it harder to dodge. Easily avoidable by escaping upwards. Try it on my clone."

Akasha · Jun 21, 2014

Once again I'd start to gather doton chakra within my body as I perform a sequence of two hand seals. Firstly Boar which is followed by Ox. Once finished with gathering of chakra and performance of hand seals I'd focus it into the center of both my left and right palm as I slam my hands onto the ground. Once my hands touch the ground, I'd release the chakra underneath of your clone. Using nature and shape manipulation I'd make earth just beneath of your clone spiral inwards and thus make him fall into that earth and using shape manipulation once again I'd make the earth spiral in different direction that before as to crush his body.

This is an interesting technique. It's pretty useful although kinda slow to be perfomed. Two hand seals as well as slamming your hands onto the ground. Just by slamming your hands, one would think that you might perform a earth based technique and thus be careful of things that might come beneath of him. The technique itself can be used as a bait to make your opponent go into the air or similar. It requires you to use earth as a medium which means that you will have to keep contact with the ground if you plan to perform it.

Once again gathering my doton chakra, I'd focus it into my feet. Once there I'd release it into the ground around your clone. Making an omnidirecitononal burst of spikes around him by using nature and shape manipulation and manipulating earth. One spike on each side would penetrate through your clone.

Pretty basic technique. You are capabale of penetrating through your opponent if you were to use it. As you said it yourself, you can easily counter this technique by just going into the air. It is pretty quick to be performed although the earth around the place from which spike is going to emerge is moving and thus giving an indication. I'd use it to penetrate through my opponent or well get him into the air.

Detective L · Jun 21, 2014

"Well done, here you go."

"Next, manipulate your Earth based chakra in your stomach, and release it from your mouth. Using shape transformation, shape it into an exact copy of yourself. When defeated, it forms into rubble. They can use up to C-Rank Earth techniques and are very resistant to physical damage such as that from Taijutsu which they can endure up to B-Rank. Make one and defeat my clone.
"

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"After that, manipulate your Earth based chakra to reform Earth in your immediate vicinty into a dome like structure that protects you. You can also leave a small opening to still see your opponent, so he doesn't make sneaky attacks. Use it to defend against my clone."

Akasha · Jun 21, 2014

Once again I'd gather doton chakra within my body and once I do so I'd channel it towards my mouth and gullet. Once chakra reaches my mouth and gullet, I'd release it whilst using nature and shape manipulation. By using nature manipulation I'd form earth and by using shape manipulation I'd form an exact copy of myself. Once the clone has been made she'd channel her earth chakra around your clone to form few rock pillars to penetrate through him.

(Doton: Ganchūsō) - Earth Release: Stone Spikes

Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: This technique lets the user create a few rock pillars that will protrude from the ground to skew the target. The rock pillars will even pass through obstacles to reach their target if these are less dense. The pillars/spikes can be done in any earthen surface, including other earth techniques of the user.

Well this is a clone technique. It's capable of performing earth techniques up to C rank and is pretty capable of defending against Taijutsu. That's actually pretty cool. I'd use it in spars to help me out create a combo attack or as a distraction to my opponent. What I dislike when it comes to this technique is the way it is formed. Earth, firstly being the slowest element and forming this clone from your mouth would take some time that you'd hardly get during spars. But over all it's a neat technique.

Seeing your clone coming towards me,I'd gather doton chakra within my body and focus it within my feets. As I do so I'd channel it just in earth in front of me. As it reaches that point, by using nature and shape manipulation I'd form a dome that is capable of protecting. This dome will have an opening, exactly where my eyes are to give me ability to keep track of my opponent.

This is a nice technique. It doesn't take much time to be performed. I like that you actually can have an opening in dome which means you are capable of keepin track of your opponent. Although it defend you from frontal attacks, your back will still be vulnerable. Using it to defend against attacks keeping in mind elemental strengths and weaknesses.

Detective L · Jun 21, 2014

"Yes, that's well done."

"Now, slam your hands onto the ground, and release your Earth based chakra into the ground. Manipulate it to create a 1/4 dome of earth, which protects you from frontal external attacks. Fairly simple, basically the same as the one I just taught you, but no opening. Use it against my clone, to protect from his clone."

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"After that, use the same way you used Earth Release: Mudshot, in which you manipulate your Earth based chakra in your mouth to form a thick globule of mud. Now this technique is basically creating various globules and firing them towards multiple targets. Use it against my clone."

Akasha · Jun 22, 2014

Seeing your clone coming towards me I gather doton chakra within my abdomen and channel it through out my body before focusing it into my hands. Once focused within my hands, I slam them onto the ground. Once they come in contact with the ground, I release the chakra into the earth in front of me whilst using nature and shape manipulation, forming a 1/4 of a dome that protects me from your clone.

Similar to the jutsu I just learned. Protects you from frontal jutsus following elemental strenghts and weaknesses. Because it protects you from only frontal attacks, your back is kept vulnerable. It's pretty quick to be perfomed although I dislike that you have to slam your hands onto the ground. It requires earth as a medium and thus you'd have to keep contact with earth to perform this jutsu.

Upon finishing up with forming a dome, I'd gather doton chakra within my abdomen once again. Once finished with gathering chakra I'd channel it throughout my body whilst most of the chakra focusing within my mouth. As soon as chakra reaches my mouth I'd release it whilst using nature and shape manipulation. With nature manipulation I'd form mud and with shape manipulation I'd form thick globules of mud, that'd I'd shout all around your clone.

Anyhow, it's a mud based technique. Using it to shot multiply enemies. Attacking from different sides, angles, and thus making countering harder. It doesn't require any hand seals which is plus. It's pretty quick to be performed although requires some time. It's good to be used against projectiles that are coming your way. One more advantages when it comes to this jutsu is that you don't need to have an earth source to make it as you are the one forming mud. Although that might be advantage at one side, it's also an disadvantage because your opponent is capable of noticing mud forming from your mouth.

Detective L · Jun 22, 2014

"That's good, here you go."

"Okay, so the next technique, you first have to use Assimilate all creation technique. Then you basically collect earthly materials from the surrounding to gather onto you, and then you mimic Chouji's spinning ball attack. Basically, with the extra earth covering you acting as a bonus to cause more damage. Use it on my clone."

"After that, form the Rat → Snake → Tiger hand seals, and manipulate your Earth based chakra. Send it into the ground and cause the earth to bring out a wave of earth that you basically "ride" so you can perform attacks from a distance or get out of that nasty swamp of the underworld technique (according to Scorps o-o, ask me if you want to know how exactly). It can also be formed around an opponent's legs by manipulating the terrain. Use it on my clone."

Akasha · Jun 27, 2014

Seeing your clone coming my way, I start to gather chakra within my body before releasing it around it. By doing this I touch the ground with my hands taking properties of the ground. Once I've done so, I gather doton chakra within my body and release it around me mixing it with the earth. By using nature and shape manipulation I make earthen materials gather onto me as to form a ball of sorts that is completely surrounding my body with which I make your clone puff!

(Shinra Banshō Dōka No Jutsu) - Assimilate All Creation Technique

Rank: C
Type: Supplementary/Defense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user can take on the properties of any earthen material they touch and harden any part of there body. This jutsu also lets the user turn into fine grains of rock that can be used to do another jutsu. The issue with using this technique is that the user will gain all the weaknesses of the material they mimic, even if they are granted their strengths.

It's an okish jutsu. Not really usable I think. For it to be performed you will have to actually perform two techniques. One being Assimilate All Creation Technique and other one being this one which means you'll have to waste two slots for performance of a single jutsu. It's good for tanking tho. I don't think I'd use it much for offense, rather for defense. And for earth to surround your body will take some time which opponent is going to notice and thus use it against you.

Once again I'll gather doton chakra within my body and focus it within my feets as I perform a sequence of 3 hand seals. Rat → Snake → Tiger. Once finished with focusing chakra I release it into the ground directly beneath of your clone. Once there with usage of nature manipulation I mold it with earth and with usage of shape manipulation I make it sprout out as to form branches of earth that take hold of your clone's legs.

This jutsu I like. You are capable of using it in two ways. First one being the forming of wave of earth beneath of you that give you capabilities to defend against jutsus, especially swamp. Other being forming branches of earth around your opponent which will immobilize his movements. Now it requires three hand seals to be performed which is a disadvantage. Also earth being slowest element, the wave will need some time to be formed although not much, it is bearable but it has to be kept in mind whilst using this jutsu. If I am correct this jutsu has great range in which it can be used which is also an advantage.

Detective L · Jun 28, 2014

"That's good. Here you go."

"Next, you need a scroll. Insert your earth based chakra into the scroll, and make it act as a trap. Place it somewhere, and when the enemy comes into contact with it, the scroll would activate upon the foreign chakra. Mud would form from it, and form into the shape of a wolf. Up to three wolves can be made, and they can reform. Use it against my clone."

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"Then, manipulate your Earth based chakra and release throughout your whole body, outwards. This would coat your body in rocks, making you more resistant but sacrifices your speed. Whilst in this armor, you are resistant to B rank ninjutsu techniques but is vulnerable to Lightning Techniques. So use it wisely... against my clone!"

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"First form the Snake hand seal, then manipulate your Earth based jutsu. Channel that chakra throughout your whole body, and harden it to a steel like quality. Your skin would become far darker, almost a black. This technique increases your physical capabilities, but makes you vulnerable to Lightning based attacks. Use it to defend against my clone."

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

Akasha · Jul 5, 2014

Firstly I start to gather doton chakra within my body and focus it within my right hand with which I am holding the scroll. Once my chakra reaches my right hand I release it further into the scroll and upon doing so place the scroll beanath some leaves <_< without your clone's knowledge. Once he comes in vicinity to me, he steps on the scroll from which chakra starts being released. Manipulating the chakra I use nature manipulation to form mud and shape manipulation to generate a wolf that makes your clone puff!

Now, it's an alright technique. You need to pre prepare it tho which I dislike. For this technique to work your opponent will have to come in contact with a scroll by touching it and similar. I don't think he or she will just touch the foreign scroll like that. You are capable of forming up to three wolfs but their power will decrease as their number is increased. Wolfs are capable of reforming and you can use mud as a base for other mud like techniques. I'd probably use it when my opponent is not capable of seeing and thus place the scroll without his knowledge.

As I finished with forming wolfs formed out of mud, I once again gather doton chakra within my body. Now I channel it throughout my body equally distributing it. As I finished with doing I start to release the chakra out of all of my tenketsus whilst using nature and shape manipulation. Nature manipulation as to generate rocks and shape manipulation to form an armor all around my body.

This technique is pretty usable. You'll be resistent to water of A rank as well as lower but then again you'll be vulnerable to techniques of C rank which are of lighting release. Forming of armor is full body surge technique which means that you can release from genjutsu. Now armor will slow you quite a bit which is disadvantage. It doesn't require you to be in touch with earth which is a good thing. Now this technique has quite a few uses. From you being capable of using it as a full body surge technique to being capable of defending. Using it against techniques that are capable of effecting quite a big an area is good.

Once again I'll start to gather doton chakra within my body and focus it within my right arm as I perform Snake hand seal. As I do so I'll start to release the chakra in a thin layer whilst using nature and shape manipulation. With usage of nature manipulation I'd form earth that is as hard as steel and with usage of shape manipulation I'd form a layer of earth engulfing my whole arm as it gains dark color.

Now this technique gives you strenght. Or well the part of body you decide to engulf with chakra. Your skin becomes as hard as steel and your body color changes to the one of black. Now this is also an disadvantage. As your opponent sees that your body color changes he might suspect something. You'll be vulnerable to lighting attacks. Using it mostly in taijutsu based fights to gain strength.

Detective L · Jul 7, 2014

"That's good, Akasha. Here you go."

"Okay, next one is easy. Slam your hands on the ground before you, and manipulate your Earth based chakra to send it through the Earth towards your opponent. This causes giant rocks to emerge and jag your opponent from underneath. Use it on my clone."

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"Then, form the Ram → Snake hand seals, and manipulate your Earth based chakra to create a portal in the sky. Through this portal, a heavy downpour of sticky mud is ejected, similar to the mud in the technique, Swamp of the Underworld. This mud basically constricts the opponent, and can be used in conjunction with various techniques. Drop that mud on my clone!"

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"One of my favorites, form the Snake hand seal and slam your hands onto the ground, to once again create a portal in the sky above your opponent. From this portal, a Boar shaped lid made of earth is dropped. This lid falls onto the opponent, trapping them, though you can choose. Hollow or solid >.> So drop that!"

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

Akasha · Jul 9, 2014

I gather doton chakra in my body before focusing it within my hands. As I do so, I slam my hands onto the ground releaseing the chakra underneath of your clone. Molding the chakra with earth beneath the clone, I use nature manipulation and shape manipulation as to make a giant rock emerge, jogging your clone into the air.

You are capable of sending your opponent in the air. Opponent will be capable of noticing earth shaking, moving and thus can indicate that some kind of earth technique is going from beneath. Also user has to slam his hands onto the ground and thus another indication. If you manage to get your opponent into the air you'll put him at great disadvantage. I kinda like this kinda of techniques. I'd use it as diversion technique. Send a fire front attack and make my opponent uncapable of seeing me and then quickly slam my hands onto the ground forming rocks that are capable of pushing opponent into the air.

:T_T: OMG FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I perform a sequence which consist of two hand seals, Ram → Snake, and gather chakra within my body. As I do so, I form a portal above your clone. With usage of nature and shape manipulation I make mud downpore from it onto your clone making him disperse!

Now, I like this technique. It's pretty useful although kinda slow. I mean, mud needs some time to get to opponent. It's usually good to be used as a diversion technique. I also like it as it gives me capabilities to attack opponent from more then a single side which I prefer. It needs few hand seals which is a disadvantage and opponent can react quickly as he or she sees portal opening in the sky. Mud which is formed can easily immobilize opponent.

I once again perform two hand seals as I gather doton chakra within my body and focus them in the center of both my left and right palm. Once finished with that I slam my hands onto the ground. Once I do so, a portal is formed within the sky. With usage of shape and nature manipulation I form a boar shaped rocken structure that falls onto your clone.

Now this technique is quite good. It is quickly performed to an extent, although I dislike that you have to slam your hands onto the ground. Now this boar is great in size and thus, opponent would have to use a stronger technique to destroy it. It will reach ground pretty quickly because of its properties. Now what I also like is that you are capable of chosing if you want for the rock to be either hollow or solid. Both come with advantage, when is good to trap opponent wheras other is good to crush him!

Detective L · Jul 13, 2014

"Very good, here you go."

"Okay, next three. First, manipulate your Earth based chakra and create a clone of yourself that is made of mud Because it's made of mud, it can reform itself after taking some damage (C rank Tai). It can also hold the opponent in place when they turn to mud, and can use up to C rank Earth techniques. Create a clone and attack my superior Shadow Clone ~_~"

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

"After that, form the Ram → Horse → Tiger → Rabbit → Snake hand seals, and slam your hands onto the ground before you. Mnaipulate your Earth based chakra, to rise two slabs of earth, that look like jaws. These jaws would then aim to crush the opponent as they come together, and their size can also be adjusted. Use it against my clone."

Dean creates a clone that awaits Akasha's attack.

"Then, perform the Snake hand seal and manipulate your Earth based chakra to cause the Earth surrounding your opponent to rise up. This would create a cavern around them, basically holding them in place. You can leave some opening so another attack can go through, or trap them completely. Use it on my clone."

Dean creates a clone that runs towards Akasha.

Akasha · Jul 15, 2014

I gather doton chakra within my body and channel it throughout it. I then release it in my vicinity whilst using nature and shape manipulation. With usage of nature manipulation I generate mud and with usage of shape manipulation I form an exact clone of myself. I send him to attack your shadown clone and make him puff!

It's is capable of reforming as well as tanking C rank tai. Because it is formed out of mud, If used proprely you can easily make him rush towards your opponent as to take hold of him. I believe once it is reformed into mud one is capable of using it as a source for other mud like techniques which is pretty neat. Tbh I am not the biggest fan of using clones in battles but usually I'd use it in short range from my opponent or as a distraction.

I gather doton chakra within my body whilst performing sequence of 5 hand seals, Ram → Horse → Tiger → Rabbit → Snake. Once finished with performing hand seals and gathering chakra I focus chakra within my hands before slaming them onto the ground. Once my palms touch the ground I release the chakra around your clone. Using nature and shape manipulation I make two jaw looking slabs emerge making your clone puff.

Neat technique. I actually like it, except the need of hand seals. But using something from front, lika katon jutsu behind which you'd hide so to say as to perform hand seals without your opponent's notice. It's a good combo technique as it allows you to attack opponent from more then a single side. I have few combos in my mind with this one. Also one more thing that I dislike is the need of slaming your hands onto the ground after performance of hand seals. Good thing about the jutsu is that you are capable of choosing how big are the jaws.

Once again I gather doton chakra within my body whilst performing a single seal, Snake, before releasing it around your clone. Mixing the chakra with the earth and with usage of nature as well as shape manipulation I make earth sections rise up around your clone as to form a cavern of sorts around him.

The more we are into earth, the more I like it tbh. It's a pretty neat jutsu for combinations. You are capable of traping your opponent around earth sections although this also means that you can loose track of your opponent. It needs a single seal as for it to be performed. You can choose to either completely trap your opponent or make an opening from which you can send another attack which is pretty neat.

Souji · Jul 18, 2014

Souji enters and sees Dean leaving...

:T_T:

Turning to Akasha, Souji reads over what they've done so far.

"This is my way of repaying you for continuing my Suiton. Dean's last lesson before he left gave you the following jutsus..."

(Doton Kage Bunshin) – Earth Release Shadow Clone
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: This technique creates a clone made of mud. Since its made of mud, it can continue to reform and mold itself back to its original shape even after taking physical damage (up to C-Rank). An unique use is that after reverting to mud, it can hold the opponent in place as a binding technique. They can also use up to C rank earth techniques.

(Doton: Musaborudzuchi) – Earth Release: Devouring Earth
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user performs the Ram → Horse → Tiger → Rabbit → Snake and slams their palm on the ground. Instantly, the ground to the sides of the opponent take the shape of huge jaws and attempt to crush and stab him between them. The size of the jaws can be adjusted to fit the size of the opponent or other uses.

(Doton: Tsuchi Kairō) - Earth Release: Earth Corridor
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will first perform the snake hand seal and then cause the earth in the surrounding area to rise up and over a target and create a cavern, imprisoning the target. The user can leave an opening to allow attacks to go in to strike down the trapped adversaries, or close it up completely to prevent escape.

Souji began setting up his usual training equipment.

"My format's pretty much the same as Dean's. Perform the technique, and then give me your opinions on it. Just focus on understanding exactly what the technique does, and state what's important. I don't expect long essays or monologues. If you want, providing a visual aid like an image would also be good for both of us."

"Sometimes I'll ask you questions to test you, but other than that, we should be able to move along smoothly."

Souji creates a Shadow Clone.

"Let's get down to business, then! The first technique here will have you performing the Ram hand seal. Form a large pit with your Doton chakra at my Clone's feet over there, and he should be dragged into it. Once he reaches the bottom of the pit, he'll be sucked underground. You can determine the range of the pit by inputting different levels of chakra. It's pretty fast and a popular opening move."

"One question here: why wouldn't one be able to form the Antlion in short range, you think?"

(Doton: Arijigoku no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Antlion Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Mid/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user performs the Ram hand seal and causes causes the ground and everything on and around it to be sucked in towards the middle of a large pit, much like the method an antlion uses to catch prey. Upon being dragged to the centre, the victim will then be sucked underground. There the victim, depending on how deep the user makes them sink, will be trapped and/or suffocated. The range of the pit is determined by how much chakra is put into the technique.

"These next two techniques are defensive types. So take that into consideration. For the first one, weave the Tiger hand seal and channeling Doton chakra through it. You'll create a rampart, or a large defensive wall, that carries you upward. By applying shape manipulation, you can change the shape of the rampart from something like a pyramid or something like a plateau."

"After that, use the Water Style: Waterfall Basin jutsu to create a water source at the top that crashes down like a waterfall. Ride it down so you can perform the last jutsu."

(Doton: Doryū Jōheki) - Earth Release: Earth Flow Rampart
Rank: B
Type: Defence/Supplementary
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: By performing the Tiger hand seal the user then makes a gigantic rampart rise up beneath the user's feet, by shaping the ground and increasing the amount of earth with chakra. Depending on what the user imagines, the shape of the rampart can be anything from level ground to a steep, needle-like mountain. If the user increases the volume of earth too much, he can be forced to keep his chakra consumption down. The user can combine this jutsu with Water Style: Waterfall Basin Technique to create a waterfall.

Once Akasha made her way down to the original height of the ground, Souji spoke.

"For this last jutsu in the set, form the Tiger, Hare, Boar, and Dog hand seals. You can either spit out molded Doton chakra to form a large wall in front of you, or manipulating pre-existing earth around you to form the wall. Either way, you pretty much create a large Earth wall that has significant defensive features, and can be a good place to gain the high ground, as Hiruzen did, or even block stronger fire and water techniques."

(Doton: Doryuheki) - Earth Release: Earth Style Wall Jutsu
Rank: B
Type: Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user will first perform the Tiger → Hare → Boar → Dog and then creates a solid wall of earth as a form of defense. Chakra is either converted to earth within the body and then spat out to form the wall or the user can manipulate pre-existing earth to form the wall. The earth then instantly rises up and takes form. The barrier itself is also coated with chakra, making its strength incomparable to that of a normal mud wall. Because of the earth's special characteristics, the wall is highly resistant against, for instance, fire and water. Hizuren Sarutobi spits mud from his mouth to perform the jutsu whilst Kakashi creates a wall composed of bulldog sculptures to box-in Pain.

Akasha · Jul 24, 2014

Upon focusing doton chakra within my feet and performing a single seal, Ram, I release the chakra directly underneath of your clone in a short range radius. Molding chakra with the earth and using nature and shape manipulation I form a large pit. Every single thing within the radius of the pit starts to get drugged in the center of it. Once your clone is drugged in the center of the pit, he gets sucked in underground.

The firsty part of the jutsu which is drugging in the middle of the pit effects a short range radius and thus will effect me as well.

You said it yourself it is a nice opening move. It gives capabilities for good combo attacks. Attacking from beneath, send something from above and attack from front. I like this types of jutsus. Although good it is pretty easy to be countered. Just negating earth chakra within the radius with omnidirectional lighting attack should do the trick.

Gathering doton chakra within my body and performing a single seal, Tiger, I release the chakra in the earth underneath me. Molding chakra with the earth and using nature and shape manipulation I make earth rise as to make a rampart directly beneath me. The rampart would as it emerges carry me upwards with him. Once the rampart has been fully formed I perform 3 seals as I make water form a wave from the tip of it as to make a wave which I ride as to get back down. ~_~'

(Suiton: Takitsubo) - Water Release: Waterfall Basin

Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After performing the required hand seals Boar → Dog → Ram the user creates a waterfall by developing spring water in a place without water veins and manipulating the resulting water current to form a wave. This is a very convenient technique as it can be used for training or relaxation. On the other hand, because it changes the environment on a large scale, it also has the effect of hiding one's location from the enemy by confusing them. The width of the water source, waterfall, and basin can be expended, as long as the user continues to send chakra in.

Useful technique. I like that you can decide the actual side of the rampart, depending on your needs. You can pretty much make what ever you want. It is also good for sneak attacks because of its size.

Gathering earth chakra within my body once again and performing sequence of few seals, Tiger → Hare → Boar → Dog, I focus chakra into my feets. Once threre I release the chakra in my vicinity molding it with earth. Using nature and shape manipulation I form a wall in front of me.

Except the hand seals, earth wall is formed within instant if of course once uses earth as a source. Otherwise if he was to release the chakra from his mouth it'd take some time. It's good for defensive purposes. It's also good for sneak attacks. The earth wall that has been formed in front of you will also make you uncapable of keeping your sight on the opponent.

Souji · Jul 26, 2014

"Good. Next set."

"The first jutsu has you molding Doton chakra throughout your body and melding with a nearby rock, whether natural or chakra-based. You can hide in any natural formation, but only up to C-rank Earth Techniques."

"It's kind of cool, it's like a sensation of melting into something. However, note that you can't integrate with anything other than solid earth."

"If you happen to get hit while you're assimilated, you'll die. Because, you know... becoming 'one with the earth' and all that."

"Try it on... uhhh... that rock over there."

Souji points to a boulder that magically appeared out of nowhere :|

(Doton: Iwagakure no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Hiding in Rock Technique
Rank: B
Type: Defence/Supplementary
Range: Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This is a technique that allows its user to blend into rocks, move inside them and then move in and out of other rocks undetected. Despite this, Doujutsu and Sensors can still detect the opponent. The limitation of the technique is that it cannot be used to meld into other types of earth than rock or solid earth and its not a very fast technique, despite being faster than Underground Projection Fish technique.
Note: Can only blend through on C rank and below Earth Techniques

"Alright, and after that, come out of the boulder and perform the next jutsu. Weave the Bird hand seal and condense the Earth or mud in the terrain. Apply shape and nature manipulation to turn that mud or earth into spikes. These spikes will pierce your targets like Kabobs. Pretty simple, but more dense objects can't be skewered."

Souji sets up a training dummy that looks like Edward from the Akatsuki :snick:

(Doton: Doryūsō) - Earth Release: Earth Flow Spears
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user first performs the Bird hand seal and the user condense mud or stone, from the ground, and shape them into spikes that will protrude from the ground in order to skewer the target. The spikes cannot penetrate targets of greater density.

Souji walks over to a nearby cave (that also magically appeared Lol) while Akasha performs the second jutsu.

"And for the last technique, perform the Tiger, Rat, and Snake hand seals. Channel your Doton chakra through the exterior of this cave to find its weak spot; which should be a single rock. Once you find that rock, pull it out, and it'll cause a domino effect where the structure will collapse in on itself, dealing huge damage to whatever is inside."

He throws a bunch of watermelons into the cave.

"Squash those fruits with the jutsu, please." U_U

(Doton: Iwayado Kuzushi) - Earth Style: Rock Lodging Destruction
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user performs the required hand seals Tiger → Rat → Snake and they then causes a cave-in by destroying the equilibrium that holds the cave together. Just removing a single vital stone throws off the balance of the cave, making it unexpectedly fragile and causing a domino effect that destroys the entire cave. The shinobi from Iwagakure use this technique in their pride tactic, luring several enemies into a cave to kill them all at once.

hehehhehehe .____________.

*I gather doton chakra within my body as I come near a bolder that magically appeared :|. Using nature and shape manipulation I blend in with it*

It's alrightish. Not very useful in battles but good for gathering informations. Only useful on C rank and below earth techniques. ._____. I don't really see any specific use for this technique.

*I gather doton chakra within my body once again before focusing it within my feet and performing a single hand seal. Releasing the chakra in vicinity to your clone I mold it with the earth before using nature manipulation forming mud and shape manipulation as to create a spike.*

It's a good combination jutsu especially for snicky attacks. Gives you ability to attack from the ground and thus make your opponent focus on them whilst you can perform some other action so to speak. Btw can it be used from directly underground of opponent?

*Once again I gather doton chakra within my body as I perform Tiger → Rat → Snake hand signs. Releasing the chakra to the cave, finding the main stone so to say I break it with chakra before making the whole cave go down alongside Souji senpai in it :| and some fruits that he put in there.

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaa,it's really terrain based. Not quite sure if something like this is this useful in our rp except if we were to fight in a cage of sorts. And the seals z______________z

Akasha-senpai was simple, quick, and efficient. It was a little scary, honestly :sweat:

"Yes, for your question, you can form it beneath your opponent. Nice insight, I'll be sure to try that next time..." he said with a playful look in his eyes :snick:

"This next jutsu is a rare elemental combination. Stomp the ground with your foot and channel your Doton chakra through it, which will lift up rocks which you can then fling at an opponent. Then, by following up with a Katon jutsu, you can turn those rocks into flaming molten ones, which makes them even more powerful."

"I think those two maneuvers count as a single move..."

(Doton/Katon: Yōdo Ranfunka no Jutsu) - Earth/Fire Release: Molten Earth Wild Eruption Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user will stomp the ground to lift of chunks of rock which he will then send at the opponent. Then, by using a fire style technique, he will cause them to ignite into burning rock chunks which explode on contact with the enemy.

"The second one is also an elemental combination. Weave four handseals together and place your hand on the ground, forming a pillar by forcing your Doton chakra through it and applying shape manipulation upward. The pillar then charges up with electrical energy and can zap whatever's in its area. You can form the pillar up to mid-range, but the bolts only reach up to short-range from the pillar itself. So theoretically, you can form the pillar 10 meters away from you, its max, and the bolts reach up to 5 meters from the pillar. That adds up to 15 meters, making it a hidden long-range technique. Interesting, huh?"

(Doton/Raiton: Denki Iwabashira) - Earth/Lightning Release: Electric Rock Pillar
Rank: B
Type: Offensive, Supplementary
Range: Short - Mid (Short for electric bolts)
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user will make a set of four hand seals and then will place their hand on the ground to create a pillar of earth to rise up from the ground. This pillar is then given a electrical charge that causes electric bolts to be emitted from the pillar up to short range from the pillar, shocking any targets in the vicinity.

Poof. A Shadow Clone appeared in front of his senpai.

"Focus your chakra and channel it through the ground, creating two rock cubes that float around you, rotating. You can use this jutsu defensively to block certain jutsus, with each cube having C-rank durability. Alternatively, you can throw these cubes at an opponent up to long range, making it a versatile technique. Note that you need to maintain your focus on it and you have to use hand gestures to manipulate the cubes."

"My clone is going to throw a couple of kunai at you. Block them with the cubes and finish him off by flinging the cubes at him."

The Clone pulled out a bunch of kunai and started throwing them at Akasha like a spaz :|

(Doton: Ukiwagan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Floating Ring Rock Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user focuses his chakra and channels into the earth to create 2 large floating rock cubes 2 meters squared. The cubes rotate around the user to either defend him from incoming attacks (he needs to direct them using hand movements towards the attack and each cube has a C-Rank strength) or, through using the momentum created by the rotation, be flung at the enemy with incredible speed.

"If you have questions, I have answers. Keep up the detail, alright?"

Souji begins drinking some water. It was a hot day ~_~"
