Alright, let's start off by you telling me everything you know about the earth element?
Btw, this is a new experience for me, being a sensei and having to choose my own training methods. Would you be Ok with critiquing the training after we're done?

Doton is one of the five basic elements. The defining traits of doton chakra is that it is heavy and stubborn. It is the main affinity of the Iwagakure ninja and it is mainly used for mid range jutsu effecting the ground I think... It is strong to suiton since earth absorbs water. It is weak to raiton since when you hit a rock with a stun gun the rock is completely sliced in half or if you run electricity through any type of explosives it safely disarms them. Common elemental combination attacks involve use with katon to make flaming mud balls. It can be combined with other elements to create the kkg and stuff like lava, dust maybe, steel, and blast release. Notable users are Oonoki, muu, Ino, Hiruzen and Jiraiya.

Nope, no critiquing for you. Ok maybe, but only because I'm feeling nice.

Ok cool.
Like you said, earth is a very durable and strong element, although it is still very malleable and easily manipulated into various forms and constructs to help you in battle. Now earth chakra itself, is simply making your chakra more denser and solid. You can use earth to alter the enviorment, or create it from your own body. Earth chakra can be manipulated in several different forms, like a viscous mud, hard rock structures, or an almost loose sand like material or gravel. It's extremely versatile, you can use it to alter the terrain, and make it so that structures and plateaus rise or fall, and to alter the enviorment to give yourself an edge. It can be used defensively, offensively, and as a supplementary element altogether, because it is so so versatile. It's weak to lightning, because lightning can easily break it apart, and strong to water since it can easily absorb and stop the water. It's primarily used by those originating from Iwagakure, and is involved in the creation of the Steel and Lava release elements. Earth is strong, and slow moving, so it makes sound when emerging. Thus, you can use this to deduce if your opponent uses an earth release technique to attack you from behind or an angle you can't see. In addition, you'll often be able to hear and feel the ground itself changing form, giving you ample time to react and defend yourself.

Any questions on earth release?

In most cases you have to be touching the ground. Some jutsu which you emit directly from your body (like the mud shot jutsu) dont require ground contact. Also, some jutsu like swamp of the underworld dont require you to be touching the ground to perform because they were seen being performed from mid air in the anime, manga, or game, and even that's debatable. In 90%+ cases however, it requires ground contact. To be safe however, you should always try to make sure you're on the ground before trying an earth jutsu.

Questions, thoughts, concerns?

(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

This justsu is so nice. I really really like it. You concentrate earth chakra into the ground, and use it to create tools, pillars, shields, weapons, etc. You can use it to create earth shuriken to throw at your opponent to injure them, etc. Now, perform it and tell me a supplementary use for this jutsu which doesent directly harm the opponent.

Hidan uses the power from his spirit and from his physical body to focus and gather chakra. Hidan reviews in his mind the feeling of earth, boring and durable like a rock. He uses the will of his whole being to give his chakra these attributes of earth in order to mold doton chakra. After that, Hidan uses his focus and will to move the chakra down into the earth. With the katon chakra gathered down in the ground, he uses it to form the earth to create a hammer made of rock to rise up from the ground and hop up into the air for Hidan to catch it. Hidan if course, is unable to get a hold of it and the hammer falls back down into Hidan's toe.

I'd use this to make a pillar that launches the opponent into the air or that rises up right in front of their face or one that launches myself up into the air.

(Doton: Gansetsukon) - Earth Release: Rock Section Cane
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary/Offense
Range: Short (Mid on throw)
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.

( Doton: Iwa Rendan ) - Earth Release: Rock Barrage
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will concentrate their chakra into their arm and then release their chakra creating a ring of rocks that are then flung at the opponent.

The first jutsu is an extension of the basic d rank earth technique, and can be done using it. Just use earth techniques to cause the earth to form into a cane, and rise into your hand. You can use it for jutsu which require a staff as well. It won't kill or anything, but it can cause bruising perhaps or maybe broken bones.
The second technique requires you to concentrate chakra. Cause several small stones to rise up, around your arm. Then, fling them all at the opponent with your chakra.

Hidan focuses the power from his spirit and from his physical body to focus and gather chakra. Hidan reviews in his mind the feeling of earth. He uses the will of his whole self to make his chakra stubborn and durable like rock to mold doton chakra. After that, Hidan sends the chakra down into the ground. Hidan uses the chakra to make a few jagged rocks rise up from the ground and gather around Hidan's new outstretched arm in the form of a ring which he then sends flying out at a random ninja happening to be walking by.

(doton: ganban kyu) - earth release: bedrock coffin
rank: c
type: offense
range: mid/long
chakra cost: 15
damage points: 30
description: after performing the rat hand seal, the user to control multiple sections of rock and move them around their opponent. the user then forms two gigantic sections that crush the opponent.

this is a bit like the smaller version of the mountain crush jutsu. make the two handseals, and focus your earth chakra into the ground to the left and right of the opponent. cause those two sections of rock to rapidly spin around the opponent before finally slamming together and crushing the opponent in between them. the jutsu is pretty nice as a distraction, since its process is so long you can also use ninja tools to attack while the opponent tries to counter.

Kazuma makes the rat hand seal and focuses on gathering chakra. Kazuma thinks about the feeling of earth. He molds his chakra to be stubborn and durable like rock to create doton chakra. Kazuma sends the chakra down into the ground. He uses the chakra to manipulate several sections of earth to revolve around some guy until suddenly manipulating the rocks into two separate sections of earth which smash together with the stranger caught in between.

(Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu) – Earth Release: Hiding like a mole technique
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Long
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user changes earth into fine sand by channeling chakra into it, allowing the user to dig through it like a mole. While underground one can sense what is happening on the surface and use the information to launch a surprise attack on the enemy. Once can also hide deep in the ground, escaping to a depth where the enemy cant reach. It also appears that after digging, the ground can be returned to its original state, leaving no trace of where the user entered the earth. While inside the earth, the user cannot make handseals and can only use Earth techniques below C-Rank. If he tries to do a higher ranked technique, he'll disrupt the Hiding like a mole technique and be left crushed.

(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.

Ok, so firstly focus your earth chakra into the ground below you. Make it so that it becomes a very fine, sand like material. It should be soft and easy to dig through. On e that is done, use your earth chakra. Burrow through the grounds at a high speed, whilst also making sure to sense what is going on above ground. Now tell me, if someone were to emerge directly behind you about a meter away, how would you detect them? Then, once you emerge from the earth, focus earth based chakra into the ground and cause spikes of earth to emerge and impale the opponent.

I'm alive! :x3:


Wan stops to concentrate on manipulating and gather chakra. He manipulates his chakra to be hard and durable like a rock in order to create doton chakra. Wan sends his chakra down into the earth underneath himself through his feet. With his chakra he uses it to change the form on the dirt into sand which allows Wan to seep down into the ground where he changes more of the dirt into sand to dig farther while at the same time reforming the soil behind himself to make the dirt the same as it was before. While underground Wan spread out his chakra into all the surrounding earth in order to sense what was going on on the surface. Wan continues to dig for a short time before going up and returning to the surface.

Hearing the sound of shifting sand behind him, Wan focused on controlling his chakra again. Wan makes his chakra so that it is hard and stubborn like a rock to create more doton chakra. He sends the chakra down into the ground through his feet to gather around the person behind him. He uses his chakra to manipulate the ground surrounding the person and shapes several spikes out of the ground to protrude from the earth that is surrounding the person and impale him all over.
