OKAY lah!
Why do you want to learn Ninjutsu, first of all?
Becuz ninjutsu izz FUN lah, so I learn lor. c:

There are many reasons which would support my wanting to learn Ninjutsu, for one such as I. To begin, of course, there is the NB aspect of learning Ninjutsu. Yes, it gives me an upper hand in battles to know more techniques, as well as allowing me to incorporate Ninjutsu into my battle style. It allows me to diversify my arsenal in many ways, as Ninjutsu is more of a general art, with techniques that can aid your use, further supplementing your arsenal of elemental techniques. For example, amongst the great variety of Ninjutsu techniques, there is the Rasengan, which can be infused with elements to give you greater power, but the fundamental basis for it, is still Ninjutsu. Furthermore, there is the Oodama Rasengan, and many other variants possible to use, with the learning of Ninjutsu. Ninjutsu, also, in countless times, have shown that it is the basis art of Ninja's. And it can be, with no effort, incorporated into the usage of your everyday Ninja tools. With techniques such as Shadow Shuriken Clone, or even, Shadow Shuriken, the potency and lethality of seemingly harmless metal tools can be increased tenfold. With one shuriken, it can be multiplied into a thousand, and with Shadow Shuriken, you can hide another shuriken in the shadow of another, creating a surprise, or diversion towards the opponent. You can even create copies of yourself, to outnumber your opponent with simply quantity, allowing you to perform multiple techniques in conjunction.

To summarise, Ninjutsu is an art which allows me to supplement and diversify my arsenal, unlike the elements, which are a staple form of offense. Ninjutsu has a great variety of techniques, which can be used to make seemingly undesirable things become dangerous and lethal.

Then again, Ninjutsu is one of the requirements to become sensei, and to me, why not fulfil the criteria, allowing me to apply for sensei and help the community? (not that I want to, of course)

zzzzzzz....siao. LOL.

You are correct, Ninjutsu is actually an extremely, extremely basic term. It also includes the Basic Five in it, however, yes, the Ninjutsu we are learning tends to be more physical than anything else. You stated a lot of jutsus that require usage of ninja tools, and I personally find that one of the most missed aspects of battle.

Technically, there are no restrictions regarding the use of ninja tools, so use them as much as possible and as creatively as possible.
So, yeah, keep that in mind.
And no, 如果你要做老师,我就去自杀.>.> LOL, jkjk.

And with those concepts, let's go over the basics.
Firstly, what do you know of a kunai and how to use one in battle?

From what has been seen in the manga and anime both, Kunai's are perhaps one of the most commonly used weapons by ninja's, perhaps rivalled only by shurikens. Each of these are perhaps the 'staple' weapon for a ninja, just as rice is to Asian people. The kunai is shaped like a miniature knife, with a handle big enough for a ninja to grasp upon. Due to its design, it is largely used to cut, stab, and slash people. Furthermore, kunai's are also used as a long-range projectile, which ninja's throw, to injure at range. In addition, ninja's also commonly attach kunai's with explosive tags, which would explode upon the user's command when within range, causing greater damage. A kunai, is however, not very big, making it not an ideal close-combat weapon, as larger weapons might be able to cleave at a larger range.

Due to its popularity(probably due to its versatility, being able to fight in close quarters as well as be thrown) amongst ninja's, many ninja's have incorporated the weapon into their fighting style, such as Minato, who created a special kunai used for his famed Flying Thunder God technique. Other ninja's have also enhanced a kunai's strength with chakra, such as using wind to enhance its cutting powers, and so on so forth.

That is all I know about kunai's, and I reckon I covered how to use them somewhere in my explanation o_o"

Rice is to Asian people? Thanks! U_U

Okay, several questions.
1. The hole on the top of the kunai can not only attach explosive tags, but what else...?
2. No, it is actually a great weapon close range too, if you used properly. Say you were locked in close combat with your opponent, where would you strike first for instant death?
3. You copied pasted. >.> Lazy! How might you use elements with the kunai as well?

Rice, steamed or fried, either way, is good. U_U

Strings, wires? They could be tied to the kunai, to be thrown along with the kunai, coiling around the opponent as the kunai's are deflected, hence constricting his movements o_o"

I have no idea z_z I suppose, you could strike the solar plexus, or simply thrust it into his heart. Though tbh, I have no idea, I'm not really that familiar with the human anatomy ~_~

I DIDN'T COPY PASTE B1TCH PLEASE.
MALCOLM.
PLS.
WHAT I WROTE IS SIMILAR, BUT THAT IS CAUSE GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE HOE <3
(jkjk, I referenced for more detail and info, since what I wrote originally was limited >.>, but I paraphrased :FTW)

Lightning? Not sure, but given how Kirabi has infused lightning with his swords and pencil, I'd say its possible with kunai's, vibrating it such that its cutting power is also vastly multiplied.

TIECH MMMMMEEEEEEEEEEE BABE <3 BALDY IS STUPID <3

No, you gotta have the...小龙包 and like 水饺。 LOL.

Try sliding the kunai in between the ribs directly to the heart.
And no paraphrasing! I know everything! >.> <.< >.>!

Yes, Wind works too.

Now, what do you know of Shurikens?

Omg YES, YES, EXACTLY. 点心 ish the best ting in zee WORLD. Babe <3

Shuriken's are like the other most commonly used ninja tool, along with kunais, just with different uses. Shuriken's are little stars with four pointy edges, and a little hole in the middle for you to place your finger through to grip, or put wires through like kunai's. Shuriken's in comparisons to Kunai's, are much smaller. As such, it isn't that ideal of a close-combat weapon.

Shuriken's are primarily used for throwing, and can be thrown in huge numbers to distract the opponent. If accurate enough, or thrown when the opponent is off guard, it could prove lethal, though normally it is used to pin opponent's down. Shuriken's are little projectiles that favours accuracy over power. Unlike kunai's, Shurikens are much easier to control in terms of its trajectory when thrown. Due to a shuriken rotating during flight, its trajectory can curve, unlike kunai's who usually travel in a straight and direct path. Hence, it is harder to avoid shuriken's, and to judge its trajectory.

Though I guess, in NB's RP, you can just say "I block kunai, I block shuriken".

Okay, so what is the point of its shape? What's so special about it?

And yes, you are correct, a Shuriken is much lighter than a Kunai, so you can throw several at once...especially on a string, it's easier to curve and trick your opponent.

Do you remember what Sasuke did with these in the manga as well?

And yeah, but I always state HOW exactly I block freeform weapons. >.>

Not sure ¬_¬ I suppose because it has 4 cutting edges, even whilst rotating, it can still cut with any part of the shuriken? And it's not dependent on a single edge like kunai's. Also, due to the hole in the shuriken, it allows it to be more accurate, and stabilize its trajectories, as it helps the weapon's overall aerodynamics.

Depends on when it was, cause I don't recall Sasuke using ninja tools any more now. All he uses is his EMS and spams right? Also, his tears, his emotions, being a little child, yeah that's all he does in battle.

Not sure about this, though, but did Sasuke use threads and wires connected to shurikens to tie up Orochimaru during the Chunin Exams Part 2? Tying Orochimaru to a tree with the wires connected to Shurikens and then shooting fire which travels along the wires or something like that >_>

I know >_> It's just some people can't take the detail and stuff u.u

Yes, perfect. >.> He hid them in fireballs too, I think.

Okay, so let's move on to the smoke bomb. <.<
What do you know of these?
My memory isn't that good z_z'

I'm not sure how a smoke bomb looks like in the Narutoverse, namely cause I don't recall watching one, as I hardly watch the anime and I have no inkling in the manga about smoke bombs. I suppose its like a small bomb-like thing(obviously), a little sphere-shaped thing, which can be detonated to release smoke into its surroundings. I know its somewhere in my memory, but typically, the smoke when released from a normal smoke bomb would cause no harm to the opponent, and would merely cloud their vision, obscuring his/her view of you, allowing you a diversion, which you can take advantage of, moving away, or sending an attack through the smoke, making it more of a surprise. The smoke is only temporary though, and can be easily cleared with wind techniques, so it's definitely only a momentary distraction at best.

Not sure about this, but since Poison Gas has been used for battle, I suppose the smoke bombs can be filled with toxic gas as well, when inhaled, could prove dangerous to the opponent. Also, I think this has been done in the anime, just not sure when, where the opponent is put to sleep through the gas, so it's like sleeping gas? o-O

o_o Poison Gas =/= Smoke Bomb, but I guess they both can hide the user. >.>
Now, what kind of Ninjas can't Smoke bombs work on and why?
Those with a Dojutsu, or are Sensory Type Ninja's. They're generally unaffected by mere diversions, as they can sense/see the chakra of their opponent, hence rendering smoke bombs useless.

Perfect.
So, now what do you know of Flash Bombs?
They're almost the same as smoke bombs, just that instead of smoke, they release light, blinding light that is extremely bright, capable of temporarily blinding the opponent should he be directly look into the light. These bombs cause the opponent to be unable to use their sense of sight for a temporary amount of time, rendering it a good diversion that can create an opening, as most ninja's rely on sight as their first and foremost primary sense.

The light released from the flash bombs can also be used for battle. An example would be the Nara clan, who use light to increase the size and range of their shadow techniques.

The same, chakra sensors are unaffected by this, though Dojutsu users will suffer due to this affecting their sense of sight.

Actually, not sure if Flash Bombs would affect the Doujutsu users, haha, because they can see chakra...and the light may not blind them in the same way as they do for normal human eyes. >.>

So, where would you toss one for the most effect?

That I wasn't sure about, because it is light, but can Dojutsu still see chakra when they're normal vision is blinded? Haha, not sure about that...

Normally, I'd throw a flash bomb above me, so I'd be mostly unaffected by the light, yet the opponent would suffer the eyesight loss should he stare into the flash bomb. Then again, for most effect, of course I'd throw the flash bomb as close to the opponent as possible, detonating it in front of him.

Not really sure though, so teach meeee t.t

Wesobi said that flash bombs don't work on Sharingans, so go bother him. >.>
And the best place to toss these will be BEHIND you, using a single hand.

Alright, let's move on to the first jutsu.
Take these huge shurikens and note how they are very much similar to one another. Then, proceed to throw them in a way so that the second one is hidden behind the first.
Do you the purpose of such a jutsu?
