Sorry Ill try to put more effort,been really busy
(Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique
One/three advantages: :
Its a straight forward attack simple and to the point, it doesn't require much experience to preform.It can be combined with elements like wind or lightning to greatly increase the piercing ability and even add a numbing ability.Despite not being one of the more powerful attacks,the final slash if targeted right like at the opponents throat can easily do significant damage to the target,and if the wound is deep enough even kill.
Drawbacks/counters:
Obviously the biggest issue is its a basic technique,which means a skilled enemy can easily deduce the mechanics of it and counter.Not only that but since its a simple tech to preform,the chances of it landing are quite low due to its small rank it can easily be overpowered. Despite me not liking a reference to the speed chart,i find that this jutsu will be most effective when the user has a large amount of speed it will be much harder to evade when the target can not keep up with the movements now this can also be reversed if the target is in a league above the user in speed it makes it that much harder to preform this technique.
How you would use it in battle:
Kakashi focusing unsheathes his sword and catches it in midair aiming at toward the enemies head,tightening his grip on the blade.Kakashi slams his right foot on the ground causing a small earth pillar to send the enemy up in to the air using this time kakashi focuses chakra to his feet and rushes towards the enemy with great speed, his sword in hand channeling raiton chakra through it greatly increasing its cutting/piercing ability,he slashes the target 5 times right, left ,right,left,right in that order targeting his arms. Kakashi then proceeds for one large slash across the enemies throat killing him and spilling a mess of blood on the field
How you would counter it:Seeing how kenjutsu relies on movement and being close to the enemies,a technique that causes a small earth quake or tremor would greatly affect a kenjutsu user running toward me,either that or i would use something like an elemental wall.Though most importantly i would try to keep the target at a distance if hes not close he cant pull off any kenjutsu techniques.
Perform the technique: Kakashi unsheathes his sword quickly having it jump to the air , kakashi raises his hand and catches it in midair firmly grasping the blade.Now focusing on his enemy,kakashi focuses chakra to his feet and rushes towards the enemy with greatly increased speed, his sword in hand he slashes the target 5 times right, left ,right,left,right in that order targeting his arms. Kakashi then takes a small leap into the air and takes a large diagonal slash across the enemies throat killing him and spilling a mess of blood on the field.
