Earth Training with Houndinii!

(Doton: Doryō Dango) - Earth Release: Earth Mausoleum Dumping
Perform the technique: I gather my earth chakra in my body and channel it towards my hands. I perform nature transformation to change the nature of my chakra into the properties of earth so that it would adapt easier. I put my two hands on the ground, releasing the chakra and having it shape around the earth and shape a large chunk of earth. I use the chakra in the earth to lighten it and then i pick it up and throw it at your clone.

Advantages:
- It can scare smaller and weaker ninjas
- Requires no handseal
- It is a large technique capable of large destruction.

Disadvantages:
- If your opponent is smart they would make it fall on you.
- You cant perform any technique while holding it.

(Fūton: Kaze No Yaiba) - Wind Style: Wind Blade
Rank: A
Type:Attack
Range:Short-Mid
Chakra Cost:30
Damage Points:60
Description: A blade of wind that is unblock able due to wind intangibility.

I would aim it at their arms while theyre holding it so that they cannot defend against it but simply dodge it and it would be hard to dodge while carrying a large chunk of rock with you.
Speed of use: Fast, requires no handseal and the resource is right in front of you.

Fine.. ill ask a question, would this leave a crater between you and your opponent?

Remember for that counter that if they manage to throw the earth before you release the wind that you would have to deal with the debris from the rock being sliced by the wind blade.

As for your question yes, your removing a chunk of the earth so it will leave a hole between you the size of the chunk.

Next:
(Doton: Doryuheki) - Earth Release: Earth Style Wall Jutsu
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
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 defence. 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.

Focus your chakra into the earth in front of you and perform the required hand seals. Then manipulate the earth and raise a thick wall in front of you to defend from the fireball I spit at you.


I use this, sending a fireball towards you.

Spoiler

( Katon: Gōenkyū ) - Fire Release: Great Blaze Ball
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user after performing two hand seals Horse → Tiger exhales a meteor-sized sphere of fire that carries the enemy away and causes a massive explosion on impact.

Extra question, what happens when these two techniques collide?

 

[Edward]

Perform the technique: I gather my earth chakra inside my body and channel it in my hands to perform the four handseals and mold my chakra that is suited for this technique. I slam my hands on the ground and channel that chakra into the ground. I use shape manipulation to manipulate the existing earth and have it rise up while I use more chakra to have a shape if the fairytail crest in the middle. I do that in front of me so I can defend against your fireball.

Advantages:
- Enhanced strength against fire and water
- You can decorate the wall the way you want o_o
- It is a good form of defense because the wall it makes is quite large.

Disadvantages:
- so much handseals.
- Does not have extra defense against lightning. >.>
- can't think of another one, its a good technique.

Techniques that counter this one:

Spoiler

( Raiton: Bakurai ) - Lightning Release: Depth Charge
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: After enveloping themselves with lightning, the user emanates a powerful bolt of electricity targeted at their opponent.

This technique would counter that one because it is a lightning technique which is naturally strong against earth and it is the same rank so the lightning would continue on to my opponent.

Speed of use: Slow .__. Requires four handseals. >.<

I honestly don't know, the fire technique explodes in a large explosion so the explosion might just pass the wall and injure you from behind, but at the same time, the wall is highly resistance against fire so the wall might have a chance to defend...

Question: since it has enhanced defensive chajra for fire and water, can you defend against higher ranking fire? O___O

*The fireball smashes through the wall cause I don't like fairytail o-o*

The fireball would clash into the wall and the two techniques would cancel with each other, thats the answer I was looking for it would leave some molten rock and such on the ground but nothing that dangerous. To your question no, consider it just a cosmetic thing it doesn't really offer anymore protection just ignore that part of the description.

(Doton: Iwagakure no jutsu) - Earth Release: Hidden in Rock technique

Perform the technique I gather my earth chakra in my body ane spread it around throughout evenly. I perform nature transformation to my chakra and change the nature of it into the properties of earth. I see youro pillars come up and I put my hand indside first, slowly merging it with my chakra. After my hands was merged in and I got the anghang of it, I stepped in and merged my whole body. I walked through it and came out the other side.

Advantages:
- Requires no handseal
- Can save you from techniques that do a lot of damage like dropping lid or antilion technique.
- Your opponent won't see you blend in if the earth is on their way from seeing you, so you can do a surprise attack.

Disadvantages
- Can only blend into B rank earth techniques.
- if the earth you blend into gets destroyed you are probably destroyed as well

I would use this technique to destroy the earth the target blended in with and the person inside (my opponent) would probably die if the earth they blended in with is destroyed.

Speed of use fast because there is no handseals and you simply walk in after spreading your chakra around

WRONG! *You smack your face into the pillar as you try to walk through it.* Someone wasn't playing attention, I used an A ranked pillar when that techniques only allows you to blend through B rank things. Yes Im that mean

So anyway Im introducing a new thing into your training. With every technique that you learn i will post a technique with it, you have to look over it and think. Is that technique an appropriate counter to the technique your learning? An appropriate combo? Or both? So since you weren't paying attention we can try this now with the last technique you learned. This will also mean that you no longer have to post your own counter to the techniques, Im taking that part out. Sorry but your my guinea pig ^_^ You have to state whether its a good combo, good counter or both and then write why. If you don't understand anything don't be afraid to ask questions.

Counter/Combo:
(Raiton: Ikazuchi no Utage) - Lightning Release: Lightning Burial ~ Banquet of Lightning
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Mid/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user brings their hands together and an electrical energy will begin to crackle around them. They will then slam their hands to the ground to send an electric current racing through the earth. When the current approaches its target, it can split into multiple tendrils to attack separate targets individually.

 

[Edward]

It's a good counter because it can split into multiple tendrils so it would be easy for the technique to break through the earth that your opponent is merged with :3

Yes, if you were underground you would have to use some S rank earth technique to defend yourself.

Next:
(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.

Focus your chakra into the earth below my clone and perform the bird hand seal. Then use your chakra to manipulate the earth and cause it to condense and attempt to skewer my clone.

[Edward]

(Doton: Doryūsō) - Earth Release: Earth Flow Spears
Perform the technique: I gather my earth chakra and channel it in my hands where i form the bird hand seal to mold my chakra in a certain way that suits this technique only. I then release my chakra in the mud and earth beneath your clone where i perform nature transformation to change the nature of my chakra into the properties of earth. Now that my chakra and the earth are compatible, i perform shape mnipulation to shape the earth beneath him and shape it into a spike that pierces through him and makes him disappear

Advantages:
- From the ground so it would be unexpected even though you perform the handseal and it coming from the ground would surprise them.
- It would be hard to defend against if they are so close to the ground.

Disadvantages:
- Requires a handseal which will be an indicator that you are performing a technique.
- If it is coming from underground they will feel the earth moving.

Techniques that counter this one: I think it is okay because, sure it defends against it by going through the spikes but it won't really continue on to your opponent.

Speed of use: Medium/fast, requires a handseal but the molding of earth is right near your opponent and its a smaller piece of earth then most.

(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.

Walk over to that nearby cave and then focus your chakra into the rock that comprise the roof. Find the rocks that hold the entire roof together and then perform the required hand seals. Using your chakra push those rocks out of the roof and cause it to cave in. Make sure to not cause it to cave in above yourself.

 

[Edward]

Perform the technique: I walk inside the cave and look around the roof. I soon find the vital spot, the spot that is vulnerable to attacks and the sensitive spot where large rocks with smaller rocks reside. I send my earth chakra into my hands where i perform the series of handseal to mold my chakra. I release it in the roof of the cave and perform nature transformation and change the properties of my chakra into the properties of earth. I have it focus on that one spot and with my chakra, i push the rocks out causing them to be uneven and making the cave fall. *remains safe because i am awesome*

Advantages:
- It can be death for your opponents who is stuck inside the cave.
- You can use it as a trap, and have your opponent walk inside by luring them in with a clone or something and then use this technique to bury them alive.


Disadvantages:
- You can bury yourself inside along with your opponent.
- Requires three handseals and by then your opponent would notice you performing techniques and most likely counter-attack.
- Requires you to be inside a cave and most spars aren't inside a cave.

You use your chakra to find the weak point in the roof, using it to search out where its weakest. Not just your eyesight. As for the counter I suppose t could work, not the best or most efficient though.

Anyways next:
(Doton: Yōdo Ranfunka no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Molten Earth Wild Eruption Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user will send chunks of rock at the opponent and then using a fire style technique and cause them to explode on contact with the enemy.

Focus your earth chakra into the ground nearby you and then launch several good sized rocks at my clone. Follow this with an appropriate fire technique to cause them to explode once they reach him.

~Creates clone

 

[Edward]

Perform the technique: I gather earth chakra and channel it in the ground that i stood on where i performed nature transformation to change the nature of my chakra into the properties of earth. I then use that modified chakra to manipulate the shape of the earth beneath into balls of earth. I manipulate it and launch it at my opponent. I then perform this technique :

( Katon: Onidōrō ) - Fire Release: Demon Lantern

Chakra Cost: 20

Description: After performing the Tiger hand seal the user will manipulate their chakra releasing it into the atmosphere around him to create several ghost-like flames resembling heads with horns and yellow eyes that then attack the target/s in a swarm.

and aim the lanterns towards the rocks, making them explode.

Advantages:
- Requires no handseals so it can be performed quickly
- With the fire technique it would become stronger and even harder to evade
- It is a projectile based technique so you can aim it at your opponent wherever you wish.

Disadvantages:
- Since it is a projectile based technique it can be easily dodged.
- Requires two techniques, this earth and a fire one to be performed.
- Cannot reach long range.

(Raiton: Chidori Nagashi) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds Current
Rank: A

Chakra Cost: 30

Description: This jutsu allows the user to generate non-focused electrically charged chakra from their body. Because the electricity isn't focused, it doesn't kill on contact, instead it only paralyzes. The lightning can be channelled through metal objects, as well as spread out into the air or ground.

I would use this technique because once the molten earth reaches me the lightning will pierce through them and make them crumble into tiny pieces.

Speed of use: Slow, requires two techniques to perform and whether or not your second fire technique requires handseals, it may be slower.

Question This is a fire/earth technique.... water is weak against earth but strong against fire... so..? 0-0

Your counter would not work. The lightning only travels through the earth and neutralizes the doton chakra, meaning it would be regular earth but not broken up. So the rocks would still hit you. As for your question, since earth is strong against water but fire is weak against it. That rounds out so that the combo will be neutral to water. Meaning you would need an A rank water technique to at least cancel with this combo.

Next:
(Doton: Denki Iwabashira) - Earth 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 rise up from the ground. This pillar is also given a electrical charge that causes electric bolts to emit from the pillar up to short range shocking any targets in the vicinity.

This is actually a pretty good technique if you have earth as your specialty. Focus your chakra into the earth beneath my clone, then perform the necessary hand seals and place your hand on the ground. Then manipulate the earth so that a sharp spike of rock erupts, attempting to skewer my clone. Also use your chakra to manipulate the earth so it has an electrical charge, this electricity still only counts as a doton technique though so keep that in mind. The lightning only reaches short range around the pillar.

~Creates clone

 

[Edward]

Perform the technique: I gather my earth chakra and channeled in my hands. I perform a series of four handseal to mold my chakra that would be used for this technique, and then i perform nature transformation to change the nature of my chakra into the properties of earth. Afterwards, i slam my hands in the ground and release my modified chakra in the ground beneath your clone. I use shape manipulation to shape the earth beneath your clone and have a pillar of earth rise up and with my chakra in the earth, i release an electric charge around the pillar.

Advantages:
- You can make it appear anywhere within short-mid range, so under the target or around them as long as they are in short-mid range
- Releases an electric charge after it appears so it would cause more damage if your opponent evades
- Your opponent can confuse this with a lightning techniques

Disadvantages:
- Requires hand contact with the ground and four handseals
- If you make the hand contact with the ground then your opponent will know that you are performing an earth technique
- The discharge of lightning can hurt you if you are within range

Speed of use: Slow, requires four handseals and hand contact.

Question: If you destroy the earth pillar will the lightning bolts still come out?

Question: If you destroy the earth pillar will the lightning bolts still come out?

I would say your counter would not work. Assuming this is a counter technique meaning you would start it after the opponent has started the electric rock pillar means that you'd be too slow to defend from the pillar and be hit by it. Also I would say that this technique is of medium speed, due to the fact that it doesn't have to travel to the opponent, it can be used under them. As for your question the lightning bolts come out after the pillar has formed, so if it is formed and then destroyed then yes the lightning will be present for a couple seconds.

Description: The user uses the earth to create large floating rock cubes 2 meters squared to toss at the opponent. The rock cubes spin around the user, doubling as a protection against other attacks.

Focus your chakra into the ground near you and build it there. Then use shape and nature manipulation to control the earth and create several large cubes of earth that float around you. Use these cubes to attack my clone. Also keeping mind that some of these cubes can be used to defend while the others are attacking.

~Creates clone

 

[Edward]

Perform the technique: I gather earth based chakra in my body and release it into the ground while at the same time, performing nature transformation to change the nature of my chakra into the properties of earth. I use shape manipulation to shape the earth right in front of me, making large cubes of earth. I use my chakra to rise it up and motion it in a circular way, making it swirl around while i motion my hand and direct it to hit your clone

Advantages:
- Requires no handseals to perform so it can be done quickly
- You can use it as a form of defense against other techniques, like kunais, weapons, and weaker techniques.
- It has the best range, from short-long range.

Disadvantages:
- It is fairly large so you will probably not have sight of your opponent for a few seconds
- You'll have a hole from where you took the earth out (._.)
- Nothing else, it's a great technique.

Techniques that counter this one:

Spoiler

(Raiton: Chidori Eiso) - Lightning Release Chidori Sharp Spear
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user increases the range of their Chidori by using form manipulation to extend it into a blade up to 10 meters in length. This blade is capable of splitting into multiple additional blades upon contact with an enemy, drastically increasing the number of wounds it can inflict. Like other Chidori-related techniques, this jutsu will numb its target upon contact.

This technique is really fast to perform so it would probably get there in time for you to react and destroy the rocks. It will extend and easily pierce through the rock because lightning > earth and if your opponent is within range, it will continue on to them.

Speed of use: Fast because it requires no handseal and you dont need to make contact with the ground

Good. Next:
(Doton: Tetsu Keimusho no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Iron Prison Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: After first performing the required hand seals Ram → Dog → Rat the user then places their hand on the ground and causing a circular arena to surrend the user with a total distane of 15 meters away from the user and the walls standing up to 4 meters high. If these walls are damaged in any way, they disappear in a puff of smoke.

Channel your chakra into the ground around you, about 15m away. Amass your chakra in the earth and then perform the Ram>Dog>Rat hand seals and place your hand on the ground. Then use both nature and shape manipulation to form a circle of large walls around us.

 

[Edward]

Perform the technique: I gather earth chakra in my body and channel it in my hands so i could mold the chakra with the handseals: Ram → Dog → Rat. I slam my hands on the ground and release the modified chakra in the ground, spacing it out around the terrain forming a large circle of earth chakra underground. I use the chakra and preform shape manipulation to shape the earth underground and have it rise up where my chakra is, so it would make a large circle resembling an arena

Advantages:
- It can stop your opponent from running away or escaping to farther ranges.
- It can serve as a distraction and your opponent might think that it would be used for something else
- It can keep outside forces from affecting your fight, i guess if you're in NW o-o

Disadvantages:
- Requires three handseals to perform so it would take longer then usual
- Limit you from using outside resources like trees and le forest.
- It is fairly week, they disappear if they are damaged in any way..

(Raiton: Raikyu) - Lightning Release: Lightning Ball
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: By gathering chakra in their hands, the user can create a ball of electrical energy and launch it at the enemy.

i wouldn't spend too much chakra on it since it is weak and easy to make disappear. This would suffice since lightning > earth and it doesnt require too much chakra.

Speed of use: Long, requires several handseals

Question: "If these walls are damaged in any way, they disappear in a puff of smoke." What if you throw a kunai? or a slash of a weapon? O_O

Without having actually seem this jutsu used in the anime, Id just say that itd break to the same things as any other B rank earth jutsu.

Next:
( Doton: Jimen Bunretsu no Jutsu ) - Earth Release: Ground Splitting Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: After forming the necessary hand seals Rabbit → Boar → Rat → Horse → Tiger , the user slams their hands into the ground which causes the earth to erupt below their target's feet. This technique can also effectively create barricades that would take quite some time for a regular person to surmount.

Focus your doton chakra and then channel it into the ground beneath my clone. There build you chakra and then use nature and shape manipulation to control the earth and cause it to erupt beneath my clones feet. This would be a pretty decent technique if not for all the hand seals.
