It's okay scorps sensei, I'm just glad I can get katon training. ^.^
Ninja - A warrior or else soldier that works for themselves, a team or a village. They take missions in a vary range from stealth assassinations, bounty hunting or else as simple as catching a cat. They use the chakra in their body to use ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu by manipulating their chakra to do the task or jutsu they need.
Chakra - Chakra is the lively hood of all ninja it's made from the combination ninja's spirital and physical energy. It is required to survive and use jutsu, for without chakra you will not be able to use any jutsu allowing yourself to be defenseless to some extent.
Ninjutsu - Ninjutsu is a ninja move that doesn't require elemental chakra such as shadow clone jutsu. They are considered to be non-elemental but some can be combined with a element to make them stronger such as rasengan to make fuuton rasengan and fuuton rasen-shuriken.
Elements - There is 5 basic elements that begin fire, water, earth, wind, and lightning. Some people can combine two elements together to make a new element like for example the four tail jinchurikki can make lava by combining earth and fire to a certain degree. Every element has a strength and weakness along with some combos that make them stronger.
Elemental Ninjutsu - You use element chakra how you need it and use in a manner depending the element. Like for doton you gather your earth chakra and release it around you to change the aspects of it. The basic elemental ninjutsu is katon, fuuton, doton, raiton, suiton.
Genjutsu - By releasing your chakra into your opponent you can take control of their 5 sense (hearing, touch, taste, smell, sight) and deceive them by making a illusion. The better the ninja the easier it is to get out of it, if you have a sharingan then you can tell you're in an illusion most of the time. A genjutsu above others is tsyuknomi, an genjutsu unique to the MS, once mastered you can send someone into a genjutsu that will rip you apart in your mind seeming like you'll be tortured for 72hrs when it was less then 1 minute in real life.
Taijutsu - Tai is pretty much hand to hand combat. Chakra can be added to your body parts to make your hits stronger on impact similar to how tsuande does it. Or else it can be used to increase your speed if you add chakra to certain parts.
Kenjutsu - Kenjutsu is the art of sword fighting. There is specialist in this art called samurai who don't use any other basic ninja forms. They use their chakra with their swords to allow them to make moves.
Wasn't sure exactly what to say for kenjutsu, not really sure how it is besides using swords. :\

Ok, now some things i need to correct you on, although, overall, you have the correct idea behind things.
Chakra: the combination of both the spiritual and physical energies. Its power is drawn from those energies. It can be said to be the manifestation of the life force of the beings that possess it.
Ninjutsu: the ability to use chakra to perform actions that would be, otherwise, impossible to do by normal means. It uses 2 basic concepts: Shape manipulation and nature manipulation. Shape is basically giving form to your chakra. Nature manipulation is giving characteristics to your chakra. It can or can't be elemental in nature. That i will explain later on. But an earth jutsu is still Ninjutsu, even if its an elemental Ninjutsu.
Elements: simply said, these are the energies or components that nature is made of. Earth, Fire, Water, Lighting and Wind (in Narutoverse off course). They have nothing to do with chakra. And element is an element. Fire exists even when ninjas didn't. Its simply...fire.
Elemental Ninjutsu: The ability to use your chakra to manipulate or produce manifestations of the 5 elements to your advantage. Katon, Doton, Fuuton, Suiton and Raiton are the 5 elemental ninjutsu branches. These are in english Fire Release, Earth Release, Wind Release, Water Release and Lightning Release.
Kenjutsu translates into "Sword Arts" or Kendo. Basically it corresponds to all the fighting abilities done with swords, or, in other words, the use of a sword in combat. It can have chakra added to increase damage or be combined with Ninjutsu and Taijutsu (Kentaijusu, Ninkenjutsu or Ninkentaijutsu)
Now, questions pupil? ^^

Then, tell me, in your mind and according to what you understand of Fire (as an element, not as an elemental release), what are its properties? What, in your opinion, will be the best use for fire techniques? Will fire release be a batch of defensive techniques? attack? a mixture of both? Fire release in Narutoverse has a strenght and a weakness regarding other elemental releases. Can you explain them?
^^
PS-replies will be slower than normal as i have some issues in RL but i'll try my best. Bare with me.

Fire is a light source or can be used to aid you in battle depending on how you use it. It can brighten up places or else burn them down if it's flammable like for example wood. It's made by a chain reaction of oxygen(all around us), heat(sun or sparks from a flint) and fuel (wood, fossil fuels) used together in order to make it. Without one the fight either won't light or else stay burning for long. In order to make the flame bigger you can blow on it or else by adding some oxygen on it.
The best use of fire techniques in my opinion is to blind your opponent and send another attack their way, the flames can affect their eyes vision due to the heat if it's up close and a big scale but on a small scale it won't do that and is just a diversion.
Fire release is a mixture of attack and defense. It can be used to harm your enemy or else defend yourself such as them sending a water jutsu towards you and you use a fire jutsu one rank higher to create steam. Or else using a fire jutsu against their wind jutsu to increase the jutsu's power at the cost of some speed if it's a rank above or the same. But it can also be used as a long range attack in some cases so you can stay at a distance and fire full power fire jutsu in safety.
Fire is strong against wind due to oxygen blowing into it causing it to grow, so if a wind jutsu if used against it then the fire technique will get stronger or gets canceled if the wind jutsu is one rank higher then the fire jutsu. So it's best to use a rank higher fire jutsu so your attack will not only go through it but also grow in power.
Fire's weakness is water, it make the fuel damp and takes away the heat from it by cooling it down. In order to defend against a water technique you need to be at least one rank higher so they cancel each other out or else your fire jutsu over powers it, but the outcome will still have steam due to the heat and cold water coming together.
I have no problem waiting for you, I'm just glad you're training me. ^.^

good job!! ^^
Now, i want you to try and focus your chakra in your lungs. Try and make it as hot and energetic as possible. Remember, fire is life through rebirth. Its energy that gives birth. And as such its energy that must be nutrished and feeder. You must use your chakra in such a way. It will be hard. ONce you have that chakra in your lungs, exhale it. Then, if you done it right, a small fire stream will be exhaled.
Try it

I think I understand the concept I could be wrong about how I describe the process, but oh well here I go.
*I begin by gather my chakra throughout my body, I concentrate carefully keep my mind clear. While gathering it I slowly bring it up my body and to my throat while carefully adding katon chakra to the mixture. I continue doing this while breathing out of my nose carefully to keep myself focused on the katon chakra building up in my lungs. Once the rest of my gathered chakra from my body goes to my lungs and gets turned into katon chakra I hold it for a second, then I proceed to exhale it not at once but quickly and in steady line. Causing a small stream of fire to come out of my lungs in a quick pace and steady line, once it comes out I begin to breath in deeply and exhale.*
I hope this is good enough, this is what came to my mind when I read what you said. :\

*smokes comes out*
don't worry, that has a tendency to happen.Try it like this...
*I focus and gather my chakra in my lungs and troat while i inhale deeply. I then exhale, molding my chakra, trying to make it as hot and as powerfull as i can, to mimic fire, as it comes out, producing a small stream of fire from my mouth.*
There is only one chakra. Its called Chakra. Fire chakra is a concept we use to describe chakra that has been succesfully molded into Fire Nature (basically, chakra that you have Nature Manipulated into Fire). Its a concept to simply things once you have mastered the nature manipulation process ^^

Ah, I need to stop over thinking things. :\ Sorry sensei. >.<
*I focus and gather my chakra in my lungs and throat while inhaling the air into my throat to mix with the chakra. I then exhale the chakra I've been gathering, while it's releasing I mold the chakra trying to make it as hot and powerful as I can imagine the stream of fire\flame in my mind, the product that comes out is a small stream of fire from my mouth.*

Excellent! You learn quite fast! ^^You've learned this basic Fire technique:
(Katon: Komakai Kaki) - Fire Style: Small fire
Rank: D
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user spews a small fireball.
Now, reading the technique tell me the following:
How can it be useful in battle?
Weak points/Limitations?
How to counter it?

Thank you sensei. ^.^
It can be used to counter a low rank wind technique or else be used as a distraction. It's also a quick move to use in short range when you are limited in movement.
It's only a short range technique so it can't go far. And the user has to breathe in air to use the jutsu, so change the air with something such as poison gas and the user can kill them self with the technique.The fire is also only a stream so it doesn't have much of a wide range of attack.
This technique can easily be countered by an offensive or defensive D rank water jutsu or a C rank wind jutsu. Or as I stated above, poison gas can easily ruin the user from inhaling due to toxins.
If needed I'll explain more.
Hello, I will be taking care of your training from now on.
Excellent. Well done.
Now for the next technique, you will have to gather your chakra in your lungs in the same way as the technique you did before. The difference though, is that you will not release everything at once, but spit in small intervals in order to produce several fireballs. Remember that the amount of fireballs is up to you, though you need to keep it in a realistic standpoint.
For addicional information: If you shoot 3 small fireballs, the three fireballs power will be divided by three. This means that one fireball will only have the third of the amount of power held by a single fireball (keeping it inside ranks).
Thus, if you decide to use this technique instead of the simple small fire, and create 3 fireballs, each fireball will only hold a third of the power of what small fire holds.
Do I make sense?
If you don't have questions, please perform the technique.

Thanks you for the training Gin-san. ^.^
So this technique is the exact same as the last one but you divide the chakra and release them at different time? I'll try it, tell me to do it again if I've done something wrong. ^.^
*I begin by gathering my chakra. While gathering the chakra I send it towards my lungs, as it's gathering my lungs I inhale some air. After inhaling enough air I close my mouth and think of a image of fire in my mind, how it's hot and power. Then I exhale a quarter of the chakra in my mouth while using shape manipulation to turn the chakra into a fire ball. I continue to exhale the other chakra in 3 other balls with rapid succession causing there to be 4 fire balls going straight in front of me.*
I hope this is good enough, if not I will gladly redo it.

*You shot four small fireballs from your mouth*
Good job.
Now, what are your observations of this jutsu?
What do you think the strengths and the weaknesses would be?
Any way to counter it?
How would you use it in battle (strategy wise, combo wise)?
Alphonse Elric
Active member
I notice that the fire balls are weaker then normal fire strength wise so it won't be able to do much damage or else defend yourself with them. The way to shot the balls determine the power, if you do to many then it's weaker and you're just wasting your chakra by using them.
This technique will be strong against a Low rank wind technique because wind boosts fire, however it can also be it's downfall depending on how many fire balls are used with the chakra.
It's weakness is any water technique. The fireballs may be able to be divided but that also weakens it power, making it seem not even very powerful but more like a weak fire that you can easily get rid of
This technique can easily be counter by a d rank or above defensive or offensive water technique. If it's for instant a dozen fire balls or around there that have a wide spread attack it would be great to use a defensive shield, such as a earth technique so it can hit you.
For this technique I would use it as a diversion. As soon as I use this technique and release the fire balls I'd throw some kunai (some with explosive tags) behind them. So if the fireballs get destroyed then the kunai will still be going towards them to attack. Or if it's multiple fireballs (lets say a dozen again) I could use it as a diversion to quickly move to a safe position and recalculate a plan.
Excellent.
You have learned:
Ok, before we start the next one, I want to see your throwing ability.
Now, throw 3 shuriken at the X I will mark in the tree 10 meters from your position.
*Walks toward the tree, takes a kunai out and makes an X*
Try to aim for the middle.
Alphonse Elric
Active member
Will do sempai. o.o
*I look at the target then begin concentrating in my mind quickly about the target, the size of the X and the distance. Once I feel I've focused enough I throw three shuriken (One at a time) at enough force to make them go straight at first then slightly down due to losing speed.*
Awesome.
Now, try a trick shot. Throw the shuriken in a lateral high arc, it can be left or right (maybe even both). Aim for the shuriken you throwed earlier. If you hit them we can procceed with the next step.
Alphonse Elric
Active member
I'll try sempai.
*I proceed with what you say, I grab a shuriken out and think about this shot. I proceed by throwing the shuriken to my left in a arc. The shuriken proceed by goign straight then curves due to the motion I throw it at. It then hits the shuriken I threw earlier and bounces off of it.*
