This is how we will train:
I will first explain everything about the technique that you're learning and then you will do the following:
1. Explain yourself performing the technique in a well detailed description. Necessary hand seals, nature and shape manipulation should be included as well.
2. List advantages and disadvantages of the technique.Also try to make at least 3 for each and some that aren't obvious.Of course there will be some techniques for which it is impossible to do so.
3. I will post a counter to each technique you learn. Depending on what I post, tell me if it is a good or bad counter, and the reasons why. Disregard ranking for this, just focus on the properties and characteristics of each technique.
4. Rate the technique's speed of use, and why you rated it so:
1) Fast
2) Medium
3) Slow
"Well Senpai, this training method greatly differs from my fire training with Oasis Senpai, however, I do believe I can manage this. If I don't understand something, I won't hesitate to ask you, but beware, I ask a lot of questions."
As I finish my sentence, I pull out a piece of cake I had been saving in my pocket and await my Senpai's next instructions.
Give me dat cake! ლ(ಠ益ಠ)ლ
I'll try to answer them all.
Ok as we said we'll start from scratch so tell me:
1)Everything you know about Fire Release,
2)How is fire chakra generated,
3)It's strengths and weakness',
4)With what elements is it good to use in combination,
5)What KG's have Fire as their component.(These three questions are mostly the inter element relations.),
6)Few users,
7)Few techniques.
I notice Senpai's eyes lingering on something. I follow his gaze and see that it falls on the slice of cake in my hand.
"Sorry Senpai, if you want this, you aren't getting it."
With that, I shove the slice in my mouth and swallow.
That was great..
Senpai gives me an annoyed glance before he begins his instructions.

When Senpai finishes his instructions, I sigh. So much explaining to do. This was going to take a moment. Because of this, I take a seat on a nearby log and carefully tell him my answers.
He wanted me to tell him everything about Fire Release. First I would start with how fire chakra is generated.
I have to think about this for a moment, and soon enough I think I find an adequate answer.
"Well Senpai," I begin "Fire chakra is generated by moulding chakra in the stomach. You have to mould it so it becomes very hot. It is then that the chakra is ready to create fire jutsu."
I look up the sky , searching for some inspiration for the next question.. what was its strengths and weaknesses? .. Oh now I remember..
"Well Senpai, the major weakness of fire release is water. This is due to the fact that water being cool, cools the flames down which ultimately weakens the attack and also it smothers them .. which means the flames pretty much go out. However, it is strong against wind as it feeds the flames making them bigger and in turn more lethal."
I smile as I answer the next question. I had just mastered wind (my first thing ever mastered), so I knew full well the answer. I say with confidence,
"Well Senpai, Fire Release really works well with Wind Release and it can be used in combination with Lightning release rather effectively."
Some KG? I have to really think about this one.
"Well Senpai, if my memory serves me correctly, Some KG that uses Fire Release are Lava and Boil Release."
Some users? Some techniques? Humph. I can't really remember, so I decide to wing my answer.
"Senpai, I won't list too many users, but I will tell you that the Sarutobi and Uchiha clans are notorious for their fire jutsu. Notable fire release users from these clans would be Sasuke and Itachi Uchiha who can use what has been said to be the highest level of fire release technique, Amaterasu. Also a notable fire release user would also be Hiruzen Sarutobi."
"Some fire release techniques that are rather notable are Amaterasu as stated previously, Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, Fire Dragon Bullet, the list goes on."
Before I end my deductions completely, I make a Tiger Hand seal with my hands.

"Oh and before I forget, Fire Release is often associated with the Tiger Hand Seal."
With that I lean back on the log and stare at my Senpai, awaiting further instructions.
Really good.I just have a few things to add.
1)While it is generated inside the stomack it is super heated usually inside the throat if it is a technique that is exhaled through the mouth.
2)It is good in combination with lightning especially for creating stormy weather that is required for some of lightning base techniques.I would say it is the best when used with wind that power up the fire technique.Keep in mind,when you fire technique,collides with the opponents wind technique,it won't become stronger but weaker.
It can also be used with earth.You can melt the earth into lava with a powerful fire technique.
And finally it can be used with water,either when you use a weak fire release technique to heat it up or powerful one to evaporate it to create steam.
3)A few more weakness':Rain,same as water.Lava,fire just increases it's heat.Storm,same as water.Dark,absorbs it.Steam,can douse the fire.Sand,resistant to fire.Dust,obvious.
A few more strengths:Clay variation of Blast release,either it can melt the clay(weak fire)or cook it into rock(strong fire).Raw chakra,as all other natures are.
Some where there might be mistakesaper,neutral to it.It's strong to bugs,t burns them.Strong to shadow,can create enough light to stop it.Is neutral to Ice,when melted it creates water that stops the fire.Chrystal can't crystalize fire.Fire is neutral towards wood.
Ok,if you don't have any questions we can move on.
Haha I actually lost that really useful thread that had extra weaknesses etc.. I just came here to edit my post as I found it lol

But too little, too late I guess xD
. . . .
I nod at my Senpai's wise words. I needed to study for the test a lot better before I answered it, it appeared.
I get up off the log and dust myself off and look up, over at my Senpai.
"Okay, I have no questions for now. Those were pretty straightforward/understandable facts. So I believe we are ready to proceed ?"
And I too forgot:It is a component of Dust and an advanced variation is Blaze.
Wise words:yayy: even my mother says I'm full of shit o_o"
As you get up from that log of your I give you a leaf.
Alright,before we can start learning Fire Release techniques you will need to learn how to harness and use your fire chakra.Here take this leaf and put it between your hands.I now want you to gather and focus your fire chakra within your body.Once you gather the chakra in your body,I want you to channel it towards your hands,feel the chakra flowing through your body,focus the wind chakra into one point of your hands.Now I want you to picture a man lighting up a match and then throwing it all into a bunch of newspaper on the ground,imagine the paper igniting.Then imagine there is a trail of fuel leading from the newspaper towards a fuel depot.Watch the fire igniting and burning along the trail and then glaise upon the huge explosion.Imagine all this like in slow motion so you see every flame of the fires.As you do so try releasing the previously channeled fire chakra from your hands into the leaf.If done correctly the leaf should ignite in flames.
Senpai gives me a leaf, I have to be gentle with it, I remember in wind training I tore it in two by being too rough which got me into a lot of trouble.
"I now want you to gather and focus your fire chakra within your body.Once you gather the chakra in your body,I want you to channel it towards your hands,feel the chakra flowing through your body,focus the fire chakra into one point of your hands.Now I want you to picture a man lighting up a and then throwing it all into a bunch of newspaper on the ground,imagine the paper igniting.Then imagine there is a trail of fuel leading from the newspaper towards a fuel depot.Watch the fire igniting and burning along the trail and then glaise upon the huge explosion.Imagine all this like in slow motion so you see every flame of the fires.As you do so try releasing the previously channeled fire chakra from your hands into the leaf.If done correctly the leaf should ignite in flames."
I listened carefully to my Senpai. It was a lot to take in, but I would try to do this at least.
I take in a deep breath and hold the leaf between both of my thumbs and index fingers gently. I focus on creating my fire chakra first. I mold my fire chakra in my stomach. I let it get very hot before I start to circulate this chakra around my body. Soon I have a nice chakra flow going as indicated by the sudden warmness that succumbs me. I slowly begin to send the majority of my fire chakra into my hands, where I let it build up. I focus most of this chakra into my thumbs and index fingers which held the leaf. My fingers and thumbs soon are overwhelmed with pins and needles, indicating to me that I had gathered quite enough.
This is when I decide that I should follow the second half of Senpai's instructions. I shut my eyes and imagine the leaf I hold as a piece of newspaper, the Sunagakure Times in fact. I imagine a man who much resembles my Senpai, taking the piece from me and throwing it on a bunch of newspaper's already in a heap on the ground. I watch as the man, strikes a match and drops it on the pile, igniting it. The fire glows upon my face, and I feel my face begin to sweat at the heat radiated by the fire.
~
As all this happens, I slowly release my fire chakra from my fingers and thumbs into the leaf. I let it circulate the leaf, my fire chakra going up the leaf blade, up its midrib, up through its veins , back into my fingers and thumbs, back into my hands, back through my body, back into my hands, back into my thumbs and fingers, back up the midrib of the leaf and so on.
Soon the the leaf is feeling like a part of my own body..
~
The flames spit and crackle, as I watch their dance, this is when I notice a strange liquid trailing from the newspaper, towards a fuel depot. I realize that this trail too, must be fuel and I watch as the fire also notices this trail and begins to travel down it. It flickers and crackles as it travels ever so closer to the fuel depot.. when it reaches it, there is an explosion.
I watch as the explosion billows up into the air, my body is overcome by a wave of heat from the explosion, my eyes blinded momentarily.
When I regain my vision, I am back in the clearing with my Senpai. I look down at my hands. Held by my fingers and thumbs was the leaf, a hole burning in its center where a single flame flickered, growing ever so bigger as it consumed the leaf. I watch as it completely burns the leaf and dies out as it runs out of material to fuel it. All I am left with are sprinkles of black ash in my hands - all that was left of the leaf. I brush my hands off and look towards my Senpai.
'How was that ?"
. . .
Sorry I changed the imagery you told me to have a bit. I got a little confused, so wrote it how I interpreted it.
Very,very good.
Just two things,you hold the leaf between your palms not your fingers.
And for it to start burning you need to release your chakra from your hands into the leaf.Which I didn't see you state or missed it which is also quite possible O^O
If there are no questions on this part of training,we can start with the techniques.
Considering I was holding the leaf between my index fingers and thumbs I released the fire chakra through there. I'll quote it.

"With that sussed, yes I do have a question, why exactly it was it necessary to hold the leaf in the palm of your hands ? Does that effect whether it catches on fire ?"
"Once you have answered , then yes I am ready to learn some techniques Senpai."
Well I suppose it is the easiest part of the hands for students to release chakra from,I could be wrong tho but it was shown like that in the series.I will check and let you know later.

I listen to my Senpai's instructions and absorb them. This was going to be challenging, being my first fire technique, but I'd try.
However, Dragon Flame Blitz, was an epic name for my first Fire Jutsu.
I walk away from my Senpai a liitle and begin to gather my fire chakra up starting in my stomach. As it builds up I evaluate the technique.
I think hard over the techniques advantages.
It appears that an advantage for the technique would be the fact that the balls of fire can be released in quick succession after the other. This is an advantage as the opponent has a lesser likelihood of been able to perform a counter for the technique or dodge/avoid being struck by it.
Additionally, another advantage for the jutsu is you could also manipulate the direction of these balls of fire. You could aim it so that an opponent won't be able to avoid the balls by going left or right, up or be able to stay where he is by directing the balls in places your opponent is likely to escape to , to avoid/dodge the technique.
Furthermore, another advantage is once struck by one ball, you could back up the damage done to your opponent by striking them with another ball straight after.
Also, because it was released from your mouth, this proves a useful technique if your hands are disabled. For example, bound and captured.
My stomach has pins and needles now. I better hurry with the disadvantages or else I was going to accidently release this chakra.
Well a disadvantage seemed to be that the balls of fire are not strong enough to inflict any great damage to the ground. Therefore, regardless of stopping an opponent from dodging left or right, or up, the opponent can use an earth technique to escape down.
Sadly, the opponent could also just retreat backwards to avoid the technique, as it is only short range, the flames going out after only a short distance.
Also being a close ranged jutsu, there is a greater likelihood of you been struck by your technique if countered so it reflects back at you as you have less time to react being closer to you.
My belly makes a strange noise. I had kept the chakra inside my stomach for an unnecessary long time as I got lost in my thoughts as usual.
Okay L, time to perform the technique.
I recall my Senpai's words and start to channel the chakra from my stomach to my mouth. When it reaches my throat, I heat the chakra up, so by the time it collects in my mouth, it is superheated. When all is gathered, I decide it is time to perform the technique.

I release the chakra from my mouth. Upon its release I use nature manipulation to turn this chakra into fire, and afterwhich, I use shape manipulation to turn the fire into a few small fireballs. I direct these fireballs at my Senpai, and they fly at him.
As they advance towards him he yells,

Just in time too. He creates a shield of water that my fireballs hit in quick succession of one another, but do no harm to my Senpai. I guess it was a good choice. The Water Shield Technique was rather handy in defense against short range techniques.
Dam I have to get him next time.
I stretch a little and review the technique.
"I guess that technique was rather fast in comparison with other D Rank techniques. I believe this is so as each fire ball hit the shield in quick succession."
I was rather tired, so I had no idea whether that was the correct answer. Instead I wait for Senpai to tell me what was right and what was wrong.
. . .
Sorry for spelling errors. I believe that took me a very sleepy hour to write. xD
Again,great job.
Just remember that this technique can't be countered by simply stating you jump backwards as it is not allowed for one to counter techniques in such a manner in the RP.And also it is highly unlikely that it would be deflected back at you.

This technique sounded awesome, however there was a problem. I didn't have any Shuriken on me. I ask my Senpai for some who grudgingly hands me over several of his, he mutters something under his breath,
"Err, these were my special Shuriken.. "
There didn't seem to be anything special about them, maybe they were a little bit shinier than your average Shuriken, other than that, I thought Senpai was just being selfish, trying to find an excuse for me not to use them.
u_u
I toss one of the Shuriken up and down in my right hand and hold the remainder of the Shuriken in my left. I end up putting my finger in the hole in the shuriken's centre and begin to spin it around on my finger as I gather my fire chakra up in my stomach. As I do so, I analyze the technique.
What were some advantages..
Well, an obvious advantage was it involved empowering a weapon with fire chakra. This allows the weapon to inflict more damage than it could've alone, without the chakra.
Additionally, it is a technique that can easily be used in collaboration with another person. You could throw the Shuriken and your partner could inflame the shuriken. This would prove especially beneficial, as you could obviously inflame more shuriken that way, as you have a partner to rely on, you don't have to multitask which ultimately slows you down and determines the amount of shuriken you can throw.
Now what were some disadvantages .. I have to think a bit.
Well, a disadvantage would obviously be the fact that you need shuriken to perform this technique. As demonstrated just before, I had no shuriken to use for this technique and had to borrow my Senpai's. Therefore, a disadvantage for this technique is you must have shuriken on you to do it, which is not always the case.
Another disadvantage is, once you have thrown the Shuriken , there is a slim chance of getting them back. Your opponent can actually gets access to your shuriken and use them for his own benefit, and against you.
Meh, enough thinking L, your stomach was starting to inflate.
Time to get performing the technique.

I channel my gathered fire chakra to my mouth, as it travels through my throat I warm it up as I had done previously, so that by the time it was in my mouth, it was super heated. Upon reaching my mouth, I let it collect there for only a moment and throw the shuriken from my hands towards Senpai.
At the same time I release my fire chakra from my mouth, upon its release, I convert my fire chakra to fire using nature manipulation. This fire I direct after the Shuriken I had just thrown, which catches up to them and engulfs them each in flames. I have to focus my fire chakra in these flames in order for the flames to stick to them.
They advance towards my Senpai who yells,

He releases several barrages of Kunai at my oncoming Shuriken.
I watch conflicted. I didn't know what would win here, but I had a feeling I wouldn't. Despite my Shuriken being on fire, I had only thrown several single shuriken, while he had released a few barrages of Kunai. My Shuriken outnumbered, would spell defeat, as regardless of their superiority alone to a Kunai, there was just too many Kunai to my Shuriken. My Shuriken would be overcome by them.
And this is exactly what happens. The Kunai hit my Shuriken hard, my Shuriken survive a few strikes but eventually they deflect and fall to the ground.
I really wanted to get my Senpai this time, but it didn't happen. I fail at hiding my disappointment. My face sad, I sit on the ground and look up over at my Senpai.
"Well that technique, if performed alone, I'd rate its speed medium for a D Rank technique. I do so because you have to multitask by throwing the shuriken and releasing fire at the same time. However, if you had a partner, I'd rate the speed fast for a D Rank technique, as your partner takes away the burden of having to do two things at once."
I wait for my Senpai to tell me what I did wrong and what to do next, looking the ground, still sad that I didn't get my Senpai with his own shuriken.
Nothing is wrong
Just,another big disadvantage is it's short range.

This was very much like Dragon Flame Blitz.. I should be able to perform it with ease, as it was relatively familiar.
I begin to gather my fire chakra up in my stomach. As it builds up I analyze the technique.
What were some disadvantages.. mmmmmm ..
Well an advantage I can think of is it can be used quickly, in the spur of the moment if necessary. This proves especially useful if you have been caught off guard by an opponent and need to come up with a quick counter.
Additionally, because it doesn't use up much chakra, and can be used in short range, you could use the technique as a simple distraction technique for an opponent, while you actually prepare a much more effective jutsu to use against them.
That was all I could think of for now.. my brain was tired.
But before it died completely, I had to think of some disadvantages for the technique.. umm ..
Well, it seemed that a disadvantage for the technique was it was only short ranged. On top of this, it only came with one single, small, fire ball. This wouldn't do much damage at all and could easily be dodged/avoided or destroyed by a low rank water technique for example. This technique would probably be seldom used, opted out instead for the Dragon Flame Blitz technique, which would be more beneficial for the user than this one, as it releases a few balls of fire at an opponent, not just one.
This technique was rather simple, so it was hard to find disadvantages and advantages for it. Senpai can just tell me some additional pro's and con's if I have missed any. But now, it was time to perform the technique. My stomach was getting tingly.
I remember my Senpai's advice and start to channel the chakra from my stomach to my mouth. When it reaches my throat, I heat the chakra up, so by the time it collects in my mouth, it is superheated. When all is gathered, I decide it is time to perform the technique.

I watch as the pebble he holds in his hand turns into a spear which he throws at my fireball.
I raise an eyebrow. I really doubted whether this would work out for Senpai.
My fireball was definitely not going to be strong enough to melt the Spear. But even so, why would Senpai choose this technique to block my fireball? I predicted that the spear, being the shape that it is, would simply go straight through the fireball without altering my fireballs intent whatsoever. I believe my fireball will just continue its path towards my Senpai. The only thing I did see being altered was perhaps the spear itself, which I imagine would crumble due to the fires heat. *Nope, don't think it is valid*
I watch my fireball hurtle towards the spear and wonder if my prediction will come true. *Note: In your next post, you decide the fate of the fireball, spear and yourself. So you tell me what actually happens.*
As I do so, I note that the technique was rather fast for a D Rank technique as it only required one fireball to be made, which meant the technique was performed a lot faster and I was able to put more attention into the technique, as it only required me to focus on one thing.
Everything is correct.The spear wouldn't stop the fireball but I don't think that it would crumble either as it is a small fireball and it would take almost no time at all for the spear to pass through it so I don't think it would heat up that much.A correct counter would be the water shield for example.

Out of interest, how many D Rank Techniques will you be teaching me?
. . . .
My Senpai nods his approval before proceeding with the next technique.
( Katon no Jutsu ) - Fire Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will release a small but powerful flame of fire at their opponent.
Focus your fire chakra in your stomach and once again,stream it towards your mouth and super-heat it in your throat.Once it enters the mouth,use nature manipulation to convert it into fire and then exhale the fire while using shape manipulation to form a small,not wide and not long,continuous stream of fire that you launch at the opponent.
Now this technique was a little different. I notice that it is a short - mid range technique , so I decide I would perform it from a mid range distance from Senpai just for a change.
I walk a little further away from my Senpai than usual and when I think I am at a suitable distance, I stop, face my Senpai and begin to gather my fire chakra up inside my stomach again. As I do so, I evaluate the technique.
Now lets see L, what were some advantages here..
One advantage that I could see was it was a rather flexible technique, it could be used from either short or middle range from an opponent. Additionally, because it was a quick and simple technique that cause enough harm to an opponent and has no great affect to your chakra, like the small fire technique, you could use it to distract an opponent while you prepared a better technique to take them down. Also, like the small fire technique, it could be used if you were suddenly under pressure and needed to use something quick, simple and could do just enough harm to get you out of your predicament.
I yawn a little. I was sleepy.. but I needed some disadvantages..
A clear disadvantage I see with the technique is it does not cover much area at all being a mere fire stream. This means an opponent can easily avoid/dodge the technique. Another disadvantage I see is it can easily be countered by an opponent using a simple water jutsu, due to the techniques small size and simplicity. Also, because it was in a continuous stream from my mouth, this leaves me vulnerable for the duration of the technique as I can not simply perform it and let it do its thing and go onto another technique (i.e If I throw flaming shurken, I can immediately after throwing them, perform another jutsu), I have to focus my attention on it until it is finished.
My brain has stopped functioning.. I couldn't think of much more pros and cons.. Senpai would fill me in though.. but right now my stomach was overwhelmed with the usual tingly sensation, indicating that it was time to perform the technique.
I begin to channel my fire chakra from my stomach to my mouth as usual. As it travels through my throat, I heat this chakra up so it is superheated. Soon I have a decent amount of hot fire chakra collected in my mouth.
Time to get to it then.
( Katon no Jutsu ) - Fire Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will release a small but powerful flame of fire at their opponent.
I release the fire chakra I had gathered from my mouth. Upon its release I use nature manipulation as Senpai had instructed me to, to transform this chakra into fire. I then use shape manipulation to make the fire a continuous, small, not wide and not long, stream of fire that produces from my mouth. I direct this stream of fire at my Senpai who upon seeing this draws a lighter from his pocket, lights it up and yells,
( Katon: Kimuchi Amura ) - Fire Release: Wall of Flames
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary/Defence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user first throws out a lighter that has an open flame.The user the turns the flame into a wall of fire used for protection or to burn small objects thrown towards him. This jutsu can be used with Hurricane Fist to create a combo jutsu.
I watch as, as a result, the flame from the lighter becomes a wall of fire that stands in front of Senpai.
Dammit, this would work out for him this time. . .
I watch as my small fire flame strikes the wall and simply merges with it. It does not penetrate the wall or reach my Senpai at all. Soon the stream I had been releasing from my mouth runs out of chakra to fuel it and the flame disappears into Senpai's firewall.
Well that technique, I'd give medium speed for a D Rank technique. This is because it required it to stream continuously from my mouth which meant that it would advance at only a steady pace, I couldn't give it a burst of speed or anything.
. . .
Sorry, if I made no sense. I need to sleep now o_o
Yeah I agree with the speed being somewhere between mid and fast.
This one is the last of the D ranks.This one might as well be the most powerful of the set in my opinion.

Focus and gather your Katon chakra in your body and then stream it towards your mouth.While you do so perform the following hand seals:Snake → Ram → Monkey → Tiger,once done,at this time it should be entering the mouth,use nature manipulation to transform the Katon chakra into a flammable gas this time and exhale it at your opponent while using shape manipulation to make your gas fill around the opponent(if that is what you want)and not just go all sides.After that use one of the fire techniques you learned to ignite the gas.
As the gas is ignited around me,I create once again a shield of water for protection.I put it directly in front of me. ( Suiton: Junsai no Jutsu ) - Water Release: Water Shield Technique

I nod at my Senpai's instructions. This technique seemed a little more challenging than what I had already done, but I was keen to try something like this.
I was still standing where I was standing from the last technique, about mid range from my Senpai. This technique being a Short range technique meant that I had to walk a bit closer to him.
I start to gather my Katon chakra in my stomach, at the same time I begin to evaluate the technique.
Okay L, what were some advantages of this technique..
After I think for a good moment, I think I come up with some.
One advantage I could think of for the technique was it could be used as a combination technique with an ally. This is so as one person could release the flammable gas, while the other released the flames to ignite it.
I wonder for a moment whether this could actually defend you from an oncoming fire jutsu, by releasing the flammable gas at an opponents fire technique, would this stop the fire in its tracks and cause it to explode on the spot? Or would it just make the fire bigger and let it continue towards you despite the gas offering some resistance the other way ?
I was really stuck on this and hoped Senpai could clarify this for me. The answer would determine whether this was a disadvantage or an advantage for the technique.
Additionally, this technique would further prove beneficial as it meant you could amplify smaller techniques that don't seem threatening on its own like the one I just learned, Fire Release: Small fire.
As for some disadvantages.. I was trying not to state obvious ones, like the Range etc. so I had to think for a moment.
Well, a disadvantage I see is it is a technique that can require you to multi task due to this technique only being effective if you also use another fire technique before or afterwards to actually ignite the gas. This ultimately slows your attack down and can allow an opponent to anticipate the technique and have time to escape/avoid/counter the technique.
Also because you have to use this technique in conjunction with another fire technique, if you yourself have to use a fire technique to ignite the gas, you can actually say that this technique takes up twice as much chakra as you actually perceive, as in order for the technique to be effective, you have to use another fire technique with it.
So in theory, to create the gas uses up 10 chakra points and to ignite it say with Fire Release: Small Fire, this will take an additional 10 chakra points, meaning the total chakra cost for the technique is actually 20.
However, this is only valid if it was your fire that ignites the gas.
That was all I could think of for now.. I hoped Senpai would fill me in if I missed anything. As for now, it was time to perform the technique. My stomach was bloated.

I channel my fire chakra to my mouth as usual. This whole process was becoming second nature to me, my chakra heating up in my throat without much thought. As my fire chakra continues to channel into my mouth I perform the required hand seals.
First came Snake.

As I finish the sequence, my fire chakra was entering my mouth, collecting in it. I use nature manipulation to transform this chakra into a flammable gas which tasted rather terrible. I then exhale the gas towards Senpai. When it reaches him, I use Shape manipulation to make this gas surround my Senpai completely. All around him, above, to his left, front, to his right, behind him - just so he was standing inside a gas cloud.
I then yell,
( Katon no Jutsu ) - Fire Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will release a small but powerful flame of fire at their opponent.
And send a small flame at the gas cloud around my Senpai. It strikes the gas cloud and instantly ignites it. Before the flames can get to my Senpai, he yells,
( Suiton: Junsai no Jutsu ) - Water Release: Water Shield Technique
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary, Defence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user will manipulate their water chakra and releasing it from their arm which is held outwards infront of them and they then create a shield of water that can aide in defence against projectile weapons and close combat techniques.
I can just make out my Senpai through the flaming gas cloud, pulling an arm out and creating a shield made from water.
I panic then. I certainly didn't think this was going to aide him at all, as it only protected him from the front, there was flaming gas to his left, behind, above and his right for crying out loud. Even if he was safe, I still decide to help him anyway just in case, I didn't want my Senpai to die on me.
I quickly call upon my water chakra and yell,

Descripton: This technique allows the user after claping their hands together to make a spiralling vortex of water out of knowhere. The vortex then proceeds to explode from the top in the form of a wave. The user can also control the direction the wave goes with hand movements.
I clap my hands and a random spiralling vortex of water appears which explodes and becomes a large wave. I direct this wave quickly at the flaming gas cloud and my Senpai, which splashes upon them with a crash. The flames disappear instantly and my Senpai does too momentarily before reemerging from the water as it washed away.
He gave me an annoyed look.
"What the hell L? I knew what I was doing no need to save me."
He wipes his face and seems annoyed at his wet clothes.
"Sorry Senpai.. I tend to panic .."
I try to change the subject quickly.
"On the other hand, it appeared that this technique would be fast-mid speed, depending on whether there was preexisting fire in the area or if you had to ignite this gas with fire afterwards."
I look nervously at my Senpai, who had just gotten to his feet and had slipped over again on the wet ground. He gave me a look that could kill then.
Well , I will remember next time, not to save him.
