*I grab the earthen stone and walk up to you.*

Hmm, you want to learn Earth. Well this is one of my favorite elements so I'll try to teach you everything I can. Earth jutsu are mostly created through the manipulating of a preexisting earth source like this stone. So lets start off simple what I want you to do is take this rock and through the use of your chakra for it into a small tool, or shield. Take your time as this is your first training session in earth if you need me to explain anything just ask.

*I hand you the rock back and wait patiently.*

 

[Rayder]

Wait so can I form Earth tools from any piece of rock or is there a limit ?

__________________________________________

I hold the rock in my hand and pour my chakra into it. I mold its shape slightly and continue to make small adjustments to its shape and form. I feel the rocks strength and use this as a guide to harden and enforce its new form. its I make it wider and longer until it forms the shape of a small shield.

Doton No Jutsu) - Earth Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Descripton: Creates small pillars of earth, small tools, and small shields of earth

Any solid earth source as long as it's not already being manipulated by someone else with a stronger jutsu. Moving along, take a small chunk of rock and turn it into the shape of a staff using your doton chakra to manipulate it's shape along the same lines as you've just done. You can then use it as a melee weapon or throw it with pinpoint accuracy at your opponent. Throw it at that tree.

*Hands you another rock before pointing to a random tree.*

 

[Rayder]

I focus on the rock but this time I concentrate more on the rocks shape. I make it longer and spread my Doton chakra through it allowing me to change its shape easier. Once I form it into a staff, I arch my arm back and throw it straight at the tree leaving a big hole in it as splinters fly around.

Well done, next gather your doton chakra into your arm and once you think you have a fair amount release it creating a ring made of rocks that can then be flung at your opponent. Fling them at that same tree.

 

[Rayder]

Why no Decapitation technique ? xd
_______________________________________

I gather my Doton chakra specifically into my arm and concentrate it into the form of a ring composed of rocks in front of me. I concentrate a bit more, focusing on adding a few more rocks and I manage to do so. I then fling it at the tree and it hits its trunk further increasing the damage to the poor tree.

Can you merge with or go underground yet in any shape way or form? Wait until I train you in the proper jutsu then we'll go back and you'll learn it. Next, I want you to send your doton chakra out into the ground then perform the Rat hand seal. Manipulate the chakra to create two large sections of earth that shoot up and crush my clone between them

*Forms a clone.*

 

[Rayder]

Good point. Sorry for questioning Senpai, I thought you missed it out.

I'm going by how Toku trained me and he trained me in the HLAM tech before teaching me the Decapitation jutsu xd Now. send your doton chakra into the ground turning it into a soft sand like quality and then begin to dig down into the ground. Once underground you can return the earth to it's previous state making it seem as though nothing ever happened. Once below the ground you are also able to sense your opponent's position. Move around a bit underground then come back to me so we can continue.

 

[Rayder]

I send my Doton chakra into the spot directly under my feet turning it soft and of a sandy quality. I sink down and then begin to dig underground. I keep on digging down for a short while until I start sweating. I send my Doton chakra out through the gound to locate your exact position.
I regain my bearings and then dig for the surface and reach right under you and shout "SURPRISE!" xd
I then pull myself out and one last time use my Doton chakra to return the ground how it was.

Now go underground using HLAM tech and pop up grabbing my clone and pulling him down under the ground until the only thing above ground is his head.

*I wait until you go underground again to form a clone.*

 

[Rayder]

I turn the ground under my feet soft again and slowly sink down until you can't see me. I pinpoint your clones position by sending out my Doton chakra through the ground. I dig right under him and grab his leg and then pull him forcefully until only his head is above ground.

The rock pillars will even pass through obstacles to reach their target. These rocks pillars will be able to skewer opponents quite easily.

 

[Rayder]

One thing Senpai. For the HLAM jutsu, if I go underground and then pop only my head out, to use a jutsu, will going back underground require using the jutsu again ?
______________________________________________________

I gather my Doton chakra and release it into the ground and manipulate the earth to create sharp pillars of earth protrude from the ground. These sharp pillars continue to go forward and even pass through a tree that is obstructing their path.

Well if you use another jutsu then you'd have to use it again as you stopped using your doton chakra to move through the ground. If you just pop your head up to look around then it'd still be the same use but if you're using a jutsu after you bring your head up then you'll have to use the jutsu again.

Next, send your doton chakra out into the ground out to mid range and force it to move violently shaking the ground for a brief period of time. It should be able to throw the opponent off balance and send him crashing to the ground. The tremors only last for a few seconds (roughly 3) but it still has enough force to force the opponent off his balance unless he has a way of properly countering.

 

[Rayder]

I send my Doton chakra underground but it only manages to reach about 10 meters from me. I send more chakra and then cause the ground to shudder and violently shake and shudder for about three seconds.

I gather my Doton chakra in my gut and feel a gooey sensation building up in my stomach. I feel a prickly sensation as the mud comes up my throat and expel it all from my mouth in the form of a thick, sticky mud mixture.
