Since this is your first lesson in earth before I teach you techs you'll need to tell me some things.

The first thing that you will need to do is explain the earth element to me. I would like you to tell me the basic strengths and weaknesses of the element, how these strengths and weaknesses can be used to your advantage or your disadvantage, what the earth element personifies to you, and why you find the earth element interesting or if you don't find it interesting, why you have that opinion. And basically anything else you want to say about earth relevant to the training and RP.

We'll discuss it then move on to the techniques afterward.

Alright then, Earth Release, or Doton, is one of the five basic elemental chakra natures. It is weak to lightning because lightning can easily travel through earth and destroy it.
Doton is strong against water because water is liquid and earth is solid and Also because earth can absorb water.
By making earth soft, opponent(s) can be struck in earth. By putting chakra in Earth the user can form a shield for defensive purpose. By manipulating earth to any desired shape, for defensive or either offensive purpose.

There are thousands of ways to use earth in the battle field.
Earth(Doton) is a component of Wood Release, Lava Release, and Dust Release.

I actually find Earth Interesting Due to methods of using it and the way it can be used as an advantage in battle, or the it might be cause it can be used in many ways like for example forming it into a kunai, shield etc. by putting chakra into earth.

Tell me how earth interacts with all the elements before we begin the techniques.

Earth is weak against lightning because the high power that lightning surges through the solid earth. Earth is held together because of the tightness of the molecules. Introducing lightning the solid structure will cause the molecules to gain energy and move faster. As the lightning goes through the earth, it causes this tightness to separated. This will make earth lose the integrity of its structure and cause it to fall apart in large chunks or just negate it altogether.

Earth is strong against water because it is able to withstand impacts and divert moving bodies of fluids. When water hits earth, because water is usually fluid and open to change in direction, certain water techniques cannot break through earth. This causes earth to be able to handle the impact of water techniques as well as divert the flooding which water techniques cause. Earth can also be able to channel water else where or drain water.

Now those are the commonly know element relationships. I want you to think beyond that and tell me how earth interacts with fire. Earth vs earth is simply based on rank and technique description, don't worry. As an example, I'll do earth vs wind.

Earth and wind are semi-neutral elements. Wind being an explosive element does indeed have the power to break through earth structures or push earth projectiles away. Wind can be used to cut earth and can also be used to push dust created from earth away. Stronger earth techniques can be used to wind stand the blast of wind but not without receiving substantial damage. Wind can be used to counter earth if used properly.

Fire is an element which can be used properly with Earth but if Fire element were to used against earth it would have the advantage , although that depends on how much Chakra is inserted into fire and how much Chakra is put into earth.
It depends on how the user uses it to counter earth, but if used properly Earth can be countered by Fire.

That explanation was borderline horrible. Earth can be used to defend against fire by creating physical barriers. Physical barriers such as walls can be used to absorb the impact of fire techniques or stop the flow of fire from point to point. But certain fire techniques are capable of such destruction that they are able to blast earth apart. Earth can also be used in conjunction with fire by heating the earth up to make it a lava-like substance though not true lava.


Before you can start manipulate earth chakra in the form of jutsu you need to be able to manipulate earth chakra at lower levels so that your control of it is strong enough. I have prepared a hole for you, you will enter the hole, then I will cover the hole will dirt up to your head. You will not be able to move. Now feel the earth around you, and feel what it personifies. All those emotions I told you to tell me about earth, let those emotions race through your body. Find the perfect balance between your mind and body for the earth element. Then channel your chakra into the earth below your feet while channeling those emotions into the chakra and feel the chakra become one with the earth. Force your chakra to rise up beneath your in the shape of a pillar to lift you out from the dirt.

:T_T:​


-I take a deep breath after hearing Sensei's instructions-
I follow his instructions and jump down the hole sensei dug up and sensei finishes filling up the hole.

Now feel the earth around you, and feel what it personifies. All those emotions I told you to tell me about earth, let those emotions race through your body. Find the perfect balance between your mind and body for the earth element. Then channel your chakra into the earth below your feet while channeling those emotions into the chakra and feel the chakra become one with the earth. Force your chakra to rise up beneath your in the shape of a pillar to lift you out from the dirt.

-I let my body be power less and relaxed for a moment-
*i clear my mind and focus on the earth around me and find the balance between my body and mind, i start to channel all those emotions into my chakra and then i channel my chakra into the earth beneath me and imagine it become a part of me,
i close my eyes and concentrate onto the chakra below me and imagine it to form a shape of a pillar and rise above the ground, i then open my eyes and was i still stuck in my imagination or was i really standing on the top of a pillar high above the ground ?



~Thats for my Sensei to decide~

The earth beneath you rises up and lifts you out of the ground as you stand atop the pillar you created.

_____________________________

This is how I will train you: I will first post the technique and the describe it in my own words, and then state a few sentences about the usefulness of the technique both offensively and defensively. I would like you to respond by by telling me:

- how you would perform the technique in battle
- how you will use the technique offensively
- how you can defend against the tech
- whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting

I would like a few sentences for each point or a few bullets. Whatever you prefer. I'll be going at 2 to 3 techniques per post to keep the training moving. I may go one at a time if I wish.

Rank: D
Type: Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10

how you would perform the technique in battle ?
Hand signs are not required to preform this jutsu so i can perform this technique when my opponent is off guard, Preparing or At a safe distance - I simply channel the Doton chakra through my body and into the earth allowing me to reform the earth to my advantage whether it be a kunai or pillars

how you will use the technique offensively?
I would use offensively by using this as a surprise attack drawing a earth kunai to attack an offguard opponent, and to boost myself up in the air to avoid mine and other low to the ground earth techniques such as Katon and Suiton techniques.

how you can defend against the tech ?
I would counter it by channeling Raiton chakra in the ground causing the shield/tool/pillar to break the ground that is being used apart and than I would attack my opponent

whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting
This is a rather simple technique and can be useful at times like it allows quick access to weapons without the need to carry or summon them I don't find it interesting due to the simple methods of using it.

(Doton: Shinju Zanshu no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user, emerging from the ground below the target area, pulls down the opponent so that only their head is above ground. Unable to move, the opponent can easily be decapitated or tortured.


Now unlike that technique, this technique involves focusing the earth chakra in your body not into the earth. Focus your chakra into the outside of your entire body and especially focus on your arms and legs. Then use the earth chakra in your arms and legs to dig into the earth while simultaneously using the earth chakra to move the earth around you. Burrow under ground beneath your opponent and move the earth beneath their feet so that when you drag them down they are dragged into the earth an stuck. This is good offensively to attack your opponent when they do not know your location or when you have a clone do this and the opponent is unaware of the clone. To defend if you see your opponent use it, send lightning into the ground, if you don't, as soon as they grab you respond by using a lightning tech to attack.

Sorry for the wait :p was busy for a few days.​


How you would perform the technique in battle ?
I would use it as a counter, to hopefully end a battle quickly or at least create a diversion for stronger opponents, especially as they're attacking with a jutsu that takes a few seconds to complete (goukakyu no jutsu U_U)
How you will use the technique offensively ?
I would use it while someone is performing a jutsu (fireball technique for example) and after they finish the jutsu I would pull them under and decapitate them swiftly
How you can defend against the tech ?
By using clones or substitutions after an opponent tries getting me I would simply counter attack him in the midst of his confusion/shock
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?

This technique is simple yet deadly its not interesting but can be very useful at times, and for a low rank this jutsu is rather useful.

(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.


This is similar to the first technique you learned. You send your earth chakra into the earth to then manipulate the earth into the desired shape. This one specifically allows you to turn a small chuck of rock and make it thinner and longer to form a staff. The staff can be used for physical attacks or it can be used as a projectile and thrown as if it was a javelin. Or you can use it to make your opponent guard against a wide area by making several staffs and launching them all at the opponent. The first method is more of a direct attack and the second method is a distraction meant to be followed up with a surprise attack. To defend against the first method, a simple lightning technique or fire/wind blast with physical power would work. Second method a larger fire/wind blast would work, but a earth wall would work as well.


( 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.



To break it down, this technique is just throwing rocks. You focus your earth chakra in your arm and then release small amounts of it and materialize the earth into small chunks of earth. You create several rocks and momentarily create a ring around your arm, then fling all the rocks at your opponent. Offensively, I find it useless. You better off using kunai or shuriken. Defensively, the opponent is throwing rocks, I think you can figure this out yourself and tell me how to defend.

Hmm 2 at one time seems like a quick progress ;)


(Doton: Gansetsukon) - Earth Release: Rock Section Cane
How you would perform the technique in battle ?
If i find myself cornered i would use it as a makeshift weapon by channeling my Doton chakra into the ground I would pull out a chunk of earth and slide my hands trough it to turn it into a long earth staff and hit my enemy in his clavicle or jugular and render them unconscious.
How you will use the technique offensively ?
I can use this technique in an offensive way by making a earth staff of a chunk of earth and hit the enemy in his clavicle or jugular and make him fall unconscious.
How you can defend against the tech ?
By using Suiton I could just turn it to mud since this is one of the times that Suiton could affect Doton negatively
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This Jutsu is okay for a D rank, its useful in times since This technique allows me to create a weapon in almost any environment and it can easily launch these staffs as projectiles without draining much chakra truly i don't find this technique interesting nor useful cause it can be countered easily by an Raiton user and weaker against higher level jutsu's alsoThis jutsu is weak against actual steel weapons.

( Doton: Iwa Rendan ) - Earth Release: Rock Barrage
How you would perform the technique in battle ?
I make the earth generate from my body and launch it by flinging my arm fast in the air I would use it to go on the offensive and start off a battle or as a diversion for a stronger attack
How you will use the technique offensively ?
It doesn't require a source of earth so I can preform this virtually anywhere so i would gather Doton in my left arm and generate earth from my body and launch it by flinging my arm fast in the air and would use it as a offence by using it as a diversion or a attack.
How you can defend against the tech ?
Possibly a jutsu like chidori senbon, or with a more powerful jutsu like fireball jutsu or I would use earth staff to break the jutsu
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
Truly no i don't find it interesting but i can say this jutsu it's a great alternative for kunai and shuriken and is unexpected and is truly ninja like and can be useful at times but Raiton users can render the jutsu completely useless.

(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 more advanced technique than the ones that you just performed. This one requires you to perform the Rat hand seal. Hand seals are used to precisely channel chakra in the required amounts to manipulate the elements the way you desire. This technique is very simple. By sending your own earth chakra into the ground beneath your opponent you can cause the earth on both sides of them to form two large sections of rock to move around and crush the opponent in the middle. The technique can be used offensively to cause the opponent to defend their sides while you attack from the front or back. It is mostly used to widen the array of your attack and cause you opponent to defend more. To defend you can just smash one side of the sections using lightning or other earth and escape.


(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.


This is like one of the previous techniques except a bit more advanced.

"Now unlike that technique, this technique involves focusing the earth chakra in your body not into the earth. Focus your chakra into the outside of your entire body and especially focus on your arms and legs. Then use the earth chakra in your arms and legs to dig into the earth while simultaneously using the earth chakra to move the earth around you. Burrow under ground beneath your opponent and move the earth beneath their feet so that when you drag them down they are dragged into the earth an stuck. This is good offensively to attack your opponent when they do not know your location or when you have a clone do this and the opponent is unaware of the clone. To defend if you see your opponent use it, send lightning into the ground, if you don't, as soon as they grab you respond by using a lightning tech to attack."

Read this again as the concept is essentially the same and doesn't garner another write-up. Key thing to keep in mind is that you do not merge with the earth, you dig through it. So spikes underground can still stab you and you can still get crushed.

On To C Ranks now x3!


(Doton: Ganban Kyu) - Earth Release: Bedrock Coffin
How you would perform the technique in battle ?
I would use it as a beginning move to either test, distract, or incapacitate my victim and than I would use a stronger jutsu to make a quick combo by channeling chakra into the earth bellow my feet the chakra is than channeled to the earth bellow my opponents feet parallels, I than use the rat handseal to compete the task and run the chakra making the earth rise and collide on my opponent crushing him/her
How you will use the technique offensively ?
i would using it as a beginning move to either test, distract, or incapacitate my victim and than use a stronger jutsu to make a quick combo
How you can defend against the tech ?
By burrowing underground (double suicide decapitation technique), or going high in the air using pillars (Doton no jutsu)
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This Jutsu is useful for reasons such as it uses a substance I can find readily in almost any location and it requires very little prep time and can be done with precision, not interesting as it seems as an very common move in a battle.
---
(Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu) – Earth Release: Hiding like a mole technique
How you would perform the technique in battle ?
When the opponent is offguard or preparing a jutsu i would perform the jutsu by Focusing chakra on the outside of my body and arms and legs and use it to dig through the earth and use the earth chakra to make the earth around me to move, and by underground move to my opponents feet and move around the earth beneath their feet and dragg them into the ground and be stucked leaving me an oppurtunaties to offence.
How you will use the technique offensively ?
When facing my opponent i would send a clone beneath the earth when the opponent is not aware then catch the opponent off guard and stuck them down on the earth leaving me oppurtunaties to offence.
How you can defend against the tech ?
By either using a clone or either send lightning to the ground when aware or when as soon as i am grabbed by the opponent i would struck him with lightning.
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This technique is quite useful at times and is interesting when using in battle it can be used and can seem very useful when the enemy is unaware or off guard.

I've found 3 techniques at once become too tiring on me, and result in lazy responses from students, so no.



(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.


This jutsu uses your earth chakra to manipulate existing earth. The user will send their earth energy into the ground and move it beneath their opponent. The user will then merge his own energy with the energy in the existing earth beneath the opponent. The user will then call their energy to rise from the ground while sharpening it. Since the energy has now become one with the earth, this will cause the earth to rise up with the user's energy. The earth is sharp enough to pierced flesh. This technique is used mostly as a pure distraction technique. It has not other true offensive uses. A fighter would use this to create spikes under his opponent to make him cheaply respond to give time for the fighter to follow up with another attack. I personally find it somewhat cheap to just start out with this technique first turn, but in certain situations, if can give you the upper hand. To guard, either use a lightning techniques to make the pillars crumble, or if your bio has the speed and reflexes for it, use a technique that strengthens your feet and smash the pillars with kicks as they rise. The latter is mostly for finesse points.


(Doton: Yochi no Douyou) - Earth Release: World Shaking
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: The user will concentrate and release their chakra into the ground to create a small tremer that can result in harming the enemy target.


The user sends their chakra into the ground and then wildly manipulates it underground. This will be enough to cause a small tremor in the earth enough, not strong enough to make your fall, but strong enough to make your lose your balance. Though it reads offensive this is more of a supplementary technique. Mostly it is used to occupy the opponent to give time for the user to use another technique. By itself, it is not very strong. To defend against it, I would first channel chakra to my feet to stick to the ground as it shakes. This will prevent me from losing balance. Then I would take to the air to perform an aerial attack rendering the tremors useless. Or use a lightning jutsu that travels through the earth to cancel out the earth chakra while also attacking your opponent.

I was just placing an Emotion symbol (x3) <_<​



[(Doton: Ganchūsō) - Earth Release: Stone Spikes]

How you would perform the technique in battle ?
By focusing my earth chakra and release it in the ground your clone is standing on. I manipulate the earth beneath to shape several spikes. With my chakra I push it up above ground, aimed at the clones shins and ankles. After it pierces the clone, the clone vanishes.
How you will use the technique offensively ?
I would use this technique as a distraction, and then use the bedrock coffin to finish them off.
How you can defend against the tech ?
I would counter it by using the azure water stream to leave the spot if a water source is nearby.
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This technique is quite useful and interesting at the same time though You can only aim for their lower body but It can also make your opponent stuck in one place, by piercing them and keeping the spikes in their body also can distract your opponent from resuming an attack.




[(Doton: Yochi no Douyou) - Earth Release: World Shaking]
How you would perform the technique in battle ?
By concentrating only on my earth chakra. I release that chakra in the earth me and your clone are standing on. With my chakra I am able to shake the earth violently by quickly adding mote chakra and pressure to the chakra, and moving it around violently. With the small earthquake in place, your clone loses balance and falls, making it disappear.
How you will use the technique offensively ?
I could trick my opponent into using the hiding like a mole technique, then use this technique to attack them underground.
How you can defend against the tech ?
I would counter it by laying low, so I won't fall back and making sure no trees or anything that can fall Is around me.
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This technique is useful and Interesting aswell since it It is a technique that would help you overpower your opponents speed, and doesn't require handseals.

(Doton: Dorosandan) – Earth Release: Mudshot
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 10
Description: The user spits a thick globule of mud at the target. If aimed correctly, it can blind the target's vision and choke them. It can also be used to create a sticky patch on the ground.


This jutsu is a little different than other earth jutsu. It doesn't require any hand seals, and also does not harden the earth chakra completely to give it a solid appearance. This earth jutsu involves focusing earth chakra in your stomach and moving it up to your mouth while making the earth chakra softer. The end result will be that instead of a solid sphere of earth, you will release a glob of mud at your opponent. This is useful offensively as unlike other earth techniques that are solid, this one has more malleability and can used to stick to targets instead of just striking them. The technique is useful in close range as you can suddenly spit out the glob of mud at one of your opponents body parts without the use of hand seals to create an opponent for your to strike. It can also be used in conjunction with fire jutsu since the its mud like properties allow it to be heated up much faster. Guarding against this can be similar to any other blast technique like a fire ball or wind blast. Creating a wall of earth to stop the glob is simple, or overpowering it with a lightning blast to cause the mud to harden and crumble also works.


(Doton: Iwa Yado Kuzushi) - Earth Release: Stone Lodging Destruction
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Descripton: This technique allows the ninja to control nearby stone and rock. This can be especially useful if in a cave or a stone lodging. The technique can loosen the rocks and cause them to come raining down on whomever is trapped inside.


This jutsu is only useful in a cave or near a cliff. It has not real offensive uses or defensive uses. It works by using earth chakra to weaken existing rocks to cause them all fall down on top of the opponent. The user doesn't exactly have precise control over the where the rocks fall just the general area since the user only loosens the rocks. Since it doesn't require hand seals it is a good jutsu to use as distraction. To possibly follow up with an earth technique from below. To defend against it, you can use a tech that allows you to skillfully avoid the rocks, blast to the rocks, or one that shields you from the rocks.

(Doton: Dorosandan) – Earth Release: Mudshot

How you would perform the technique in battle ?
By concentrating earth chakra in my mouth. I use my chakra to transform my chakra to mud. I spew out a shot of mud, using my chakra to manipulate the shape and speed of the mud. I put it on my opponents feet, trapping him.
How you will use the technique offensively ?
I could use the water startch capture technique, then the mudshot to create an extra sticky ground
How you can defend against the tech ?
I would counter it by using a lightning technique to break down the properties or mud or use water to counter it, making the mud more heavier and hard to control
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This jutsu also doesn't require handseals :D and can blind your opponent, giving you the opportunity to attack with a fatal attack. its useful and interesting also disgusting U_U



(Doton: Iwa Yado Kuzushi) - Earth Release: Stone Lodging Destruction

How you would perform the technique in battle ?
By concentrating earth chakra only, then release it throughout the cavern. My chakra searches far and wide, everywhere in the cavern. After my chakra runs through a spot where there is loose rocks. I use my chakra to loosen it even more, which rains down far from me.
How you will use the technique offensively ?
I could use random techniques to try to push my opponent in one spot, and make rocks fall when they get there.
How you can defend against the tech ?
By using the azure water stream to move quickly or not going to a terrain where there is a ceiling of rocks
Whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting ?
This technique also doesn't require handseals :D and can be useful at times you can trap an opponent in a cavern there is a small chance for it to hit you as well. lol

(Doton: Doryudan) - Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Long
Chakra Cost: 15

Description: After forming the needed hand seal Tiger, the user transforms the ground underneath their opponent into a river of mud that throws them off balance and away from the user.

These techniques are in the wrong order on the jutsu list. I will do them in the reverse order as above. I will explain both techniques at once but I want you to explain both techniques separately as you did all the techniques before. Earth Flow River is a basic technique. It uses one hand seal to turn the ground underneath the opponent into a river of mud. Similar to the last earth jutsu you learned that does no completely solidify the earth, this technique also keeps the earth as mud. As I mentioned before, this is done by keeping the user's earth chakra loose giving it a mud-like appearance. This technique is not offensive by itself but can be used to follow up with an offensive counter. This technique is mainly used to distract the opponent. It can be increased in power by using a fire technique to heat the mud. You can easily defend against it by solidify the mud with lightning and breaking out, or by using a technique that will enable you to block or avoid the river. This technique is prerequisite to the Earth Dragon Bullet which uses 4 hand seals to change the shape of the existing mud to that of a dragon's head. The dragon's head can release bullets of mud at the opponent which can then be combined with a fire technique. The user can block these bullets with another earth technique, or a wind or fire technique with physical force to push them away.
