Kakuzu seeing snakes holding him tightly, he thought : without making any handseals, moving his body or performing any summoning rite, how could snakes constrict him ? concluding that he was in an illusion, he released an unfocused electrical energy from the 361 chakra points of his body that serves as a full body surge that breaks the illusion. Breaking the genjutsu, he returns to the real world just to be covered by a giant shadow, looking upwards he sees a giant lid that seeks to crush him, not having more time to escape, he manipulates his chakra to generate a plasma barrier around them to serve a defence against the lid. The barrier breaks the lid cancelling it out. Kakuzu continues by concentrating a lot of lightning chakra into his hand, compressing it into a ball of lightning energy that he hurls at the man causing a massive explosion.
( Raiton: Purazuma Bōru ) - Lightning Release: Plasma Ball
Rank: B
Type: Offensive, Defence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20 (-5 per turn active)
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulating their chakra generates a plasma barrier around them to serve as a defence which protects them from incoming attacks, even from something as wide-ranged as the Quicksand Waterfall Flow. However the user cannot use other techniques besides lightning release or physical based techniques while sustaining the technique. The user can rush at their opponents even if the barrier is active and use it to ram against them. The shield can be used offensively, by discharging the electricity in the direction of their choice in a wave resulting in using the energy of the barrier and ending its effects.
(Raiton: Chidori Nagashi) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds Current
Rank: A
Type: Offense/DefenceRange: Short (Mid if channeled through a medium)
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A ( 10 if used to boost weapon damage)
Description: This jutsu allows the user to generate non-focused electricity from their body. It can be used as an omnidirectional attack or be channeled through weapons, the ground or other conductive mediums. Because the electricity isn't focused, it doesn't kill on contact, instead it has great numbing and paralyzing effects. To channel Nagashi through a medium, the user needs to focus the technique into one of his hands which will then be put in contact with the medium and can only choose to either do a widespread attack throughout his whole body or to channel it into something; he cannot achieve both usages at the same time. Despite not having much destructive or damaging properties, Nagashi can be used to destroy low rank earthen and wooden structures and even negate chakra on the ground to stop high ranked earth and wood techniques. It has also been noted that Lightning Specialists that have mastered Lightning to the highest degree can resist total paralyzation, although they still feel the pain and numbing effects.
Note: Paralyzation lasts 1 turn if sucessful but is ineffective against bios who have a primary Lightning Specialty
