[Fuuin] Learning Fūinjutsu

[Ndlovu]

*I stand ready to learn*

 

[Detective L 👑]

Fuuin is my shit!

What do you know about the greatest ability in our RP?

 

[Ndlovu]

Greatest? O_O, Show me the way U_U

---

Fūinjutsu is the art of sealing things. The fundamentals are sealing and releasing, but it is more complicated than that. In order to seal something you need, an object which is the thing you are going to seal. A vessel, which is the thing that is going to contain the sealed thing. Sometimes a trigger, this could be anything preset into the vessel that forces it to activate. Binding, which is the seal itself, which is what will contain the object. Chakra, like alot of things it needs chakra to maintain/activate the seal. But because it's chakra seals are not permanent and they happen to get weaker over time. A key which isn't essential, but you may and one if you wish. This is a method to unlock or break the seal, pre established when the seal was formed. Almost anything can be a key.

I kick ass with Fuuin all the time #FuuinRace #BrolyWonTheSpaceRace @-Broly-

Anyway, you are there. It has several components as you explained, which also allows you to understand the fundamentals of the canon techniques, and why its one of the first things shown in Canon when Minato sealed the Kyubi using that special Uzumaki knowledge.

( Isshi Tōjin ) - Light String Formation

Spoiler

Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short
Chakra: 15
Damage: N/A
Description: This barrier is designed to prevent anyone from leaving its confines. Once within a certain range of the person, the user erects the barrier underfoot rendering anyone within the seals, incapable of escaping. Should the user use on someone of a higher rank than him, than the effects will be null. However, should 2 or more barriers are combined, then the effects will be increased one rank ( Kages would effect Sages now, for example ).

( Fuuinjutsu: Kōmu Kekkaijutsu ) - Sealing Arts: Crimson Mist Barrier Jutsu

Spoiler

Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 15
Damage: N/A
Description: By summoning a thick wall of mist, the user can impair sight for all within it. It also masks any sound from being heard outside of the mist. The effectiveness of this technique varies between users as it depends on the user's skill. Starting at Chunnin rank, this lasts for 1 turn and can be extended 1 turn per rank increase up to Kage rank (6 turns). Chunnin and Special Jounin can use this up to Short range, Jounin and S-class Ninja can use this up to Mid range and Sannin and up can extend this to long range.

Barriers, a key use of Fuuinjutsu. What's happening with these two techniques?

 

[Ndlovu]

( Isshi Tōjin ) - Light String Formation
This is a short range barrier that stops people from leaving the area. Since it's short range, that's not alot of space. It can't be used on people stronger than the user and combining two of them makes it one rank stronger. Which will increase your chance of preventing them from escaping.

( Fuuinjutsu: Kōmu Kekkaijutsu ) - Sealing Arts: Crimson Mist Barrier Jutsu
This allows the user to summon a thick wall of mist, as it is short to long range this can be done almost anywhere on the battlefield. This technique masks your sounds, allowing you to move covertly whilst your opponents vision is obscured. Your rank determines how far you can actually use this jutsu, so you need to take note of that before you use it at just any range. Just like the range the length of time it can stay on the battlefield for is also determined by rank.

Yes sir, true ninja shit - will be useful in the time to come #SPOILERS

Anyway, more barriers O_O

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short- Mid
Chakra cost: 20 (- 10 per turn to keep active)
Damage points: N/A
Description: After clapping ones hands, this technique creates a spherical detection barrier above ground with the user at the center. At the user's command, the detection barrier can expand, grasping everything in the battle field. The user is able to detect anything that moves inside the barrier space with his or her own "sense".

(Kekkai Houjin) - Barrier Method Battle Array

Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: Kekkai Houjin is a high-level Fuuinjutsu trap technique. An array of explosive markers is jointly placed around the boundary of an area. If any opponent walks through the boundary, the seals will activate and explode.

Rank: B - S
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra: 20 - 40
Damage: N/A
Description: The user will insert their chakra into a active barrier to then interfere with the source and cancel the barrier shattering its shell.
Note: Must make direct contact. Regular Fuuinjutsu users can dispel Barrier Techniques B-Rank and below. Uzumaki bios can dispel up to A-Rank. Advanced Sealing Specialists can dispel up to S rank Barriers.

Some of these have been customized by our wonderful community. Tell me a bit about what makes barriers so effective, given the current meta?

 

[Ndlovu]

Barriers are super useful as they can prevent your opponent from doing something or going somewhere. The sensing type ones allow you to read, predict or react to something that might be difficult to react to with the naked eye. Barriers are also helpful as they can be set and left for a latter stage, where you can catch your opponent off guard.

(Kekkai: Tengai Hojin) - Barrier: Dome Method Formation
This is quite simple, it creates a barrier that the users senses are connected to. If anything moves into, or within that barrier the user will know. It can go up to mid range which is pretty good. Pity it only detects above the ground.

(Kekkai Houjin) - Barrier Method Battle Array
Very simple periphery trap. You walk around an area, placing an array of explosive markers. When the opponent walks past the area/boundary it explodes.

( Kekkai Kireme no Jutsu ) - Barrier Shatter Technique
Very useful for breaking/releasing barriers. It does require physical contact which could be tricky, but still a very useful technique. At this stage I would be able to break up to B-rank barriers

 

[Detective L 👑]

Hope the custom ideas are already in your mind, even with these basics?

(Fusen no Kekkai) Tag Barrier

Spoiler

Type: Defensive/Supplementary
Rank: B-rank
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user will take a tag marked with the kanjis 障害 (Shōgai) and either place it on a weapon (like wrapped around a kunai's handle) or on a surface (like the ground). Upon doing so, a defensive spherical barrier is erected around the tag as a seal. The barrier can be used to defend against up to B-Rank ninjutsu but also be used to contain an enemy inside if feasible.

(Mugen Hōyō) - Infinate Embrace

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20 (-50 per turn to the target, +30 to user)
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user slams his hands on the ground and generates a special barrier that surrounds the target forming a "cuboid" construct of pink chakra which begins draining the chakra of the target caught inside. This technique can be used in conjunction with shadow rope technique or other restrictive techniques to further hinder the target. Once caught inside it, the target cannot mold chakra above S-rank and the barrier itself can only be broken by B-Rank techniques or by attacking the user of the technique.

(Fuuinjutsu: Kami Komyunikēshon) Sealing Arts: Scroll Communication technique

Spoiler

Type: Supplementary
Rank: B-Rank
Range: N/A
Chakra: 20
Damage: N/A
Description:
The user will create 2 or more scrolls with an embedded sealing formula that connects them all together. As such, anything written in one scroll will appear written in all the connected scrolls. A very useful communication technique, it can connect scrolls regardless of the distance between them. To activate the scroll, the user needs to perform a key of hand seals that will be unique for each creation and only known to those the user wishes, preventing the use of the scrolls by those the user doesn't allow.

There's one here that's very useful, which one do you think I am talking about?
Also, ask any questions if you have O_O

 

[Ndlovu]

(Mugen Hōyō) - Infinate Embrace? I think is the one you are talking about, because not only does it hinder the opponent from molding F rank moves. It takes chakra away from them and gives it to you. Which if this happens the jutsu pays for itself, since it costs 20 and absorbs 30. The jutsu is also supposed to be used in conjunction with other restraining techniques as well making it harder for the opponent to get out.

I don't have any questions, I also like (Fusen no Kekkai) Tag Barrier ^_^

Ding ding ding - you are correct.
Next on the line up is basic sealing, and a useful trick for all those pesky Jinchu's around.

( Fūin Fuda ) – Sealing Tag

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: A basic sealing technique where the user places one or more tags either directly on a target or on a technique which is restraining it. As its placed, a sealing formula spreads around the technique or the target, sealing it. This technique has been seen used with Sand ninjutsu, Earth, Water, Wood, Cloth Ninjutsu, etc but basically any technique in which you can apply the tags can be used. In the case of expert ninjas, the tags might even be incorporated into the restraining technique, with no need to actually manually place the tag or tags. Additionally, less experienced ninjas can find that throwing one or more kunais with the sealing tags attached at the technique which will trigger the same effect when the kunais stick on the technique. This prevents the target from moving, molding chakra or even being summoned.
Note: The seal takes a while to form, so most opponents can either counter the restraining technique (thus preventing the sealing formula of taking effect) or rip off the tags from themselves negating its effects entirely. If the target, however, fails to counter the restraining technique or is counter to it fails or if he doesn't remove the tags in his next move, then the seal will fully be placed and the target unable to release himself.
Note: This technique is specially designed to be used on summons and Edo Tensei Summons but will work on any opponent except Jinchurikiis.

( Chakra Haisui Fūin no Jutsu ) – Chakra Suppression Seal Technique

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user places this seal on the forehead of a Jinchuuriki influenced by the powers of a Bijuu, to forcibly cause the Bijuu's powers to recede. The Jinchuuriki becomes exhausted after this happens.
Note: This can only restrict Jinchuuriki in their Incomplete form, not when they completely transform into the Bijuu.

( Han'you Fūin ) - Generic Sealing Technique

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary , Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: This technique is a standard ninja skill which allows a ninja to summon an assortment of items or weapons that have been stored using Fūinjutsu,typically they are stored within scrolls. When needed, the owner will activate the seals releasing their item or weapon of choice. Scrolls can also be used as ammunition for other weapons. The items themselves are unaffected by time. This Technique allows the user to seal any weapons they wish being their own or opponents.
Note: Cannot seal opponent's custom weapons, or the special weapons of a particular character ( example: Samehada or Kubikiribocho ).
Note: Can only seal corpses, and not injured people regardless of the extent of their injury.

 

[Ndlovu]

( Fūin Fuda ) – Sealing Tag
Versatile jutsu that allows the user to seal things, this jutsu can be used in conjuction with elemental jutsu and if you are good enough (lol) you won't even need to place the tag. The tag can be used on things, attached to things. When this tag is active on the object. It prevents the target from moving, molding chakra or being summoned. The problem is this takes a awhile to form, so it is quite easy to counter.

( Chakra Haisui Fūin no Jutsu ) – Chakra Suppression Seal Technique
Very simple, it forces a Jinchuuriki's powers of a bijuu to be suppresed. Used multiple times in the series. It only works on incomplete Jinchuuriki and not complete. It is also short range so you have to be very close to use it, which is very dangerous.

( Han'you Fūin ) - Generic Sealing Technique
Another short range technique, that once used stores items and weapons. This is the same kind of seal on a scroll Tenten uses to carry her array of ninja tools. It's pretty good that it can seal the opponents weapon as well. But it cannot seal custom weapons or living weapons. It can also seal corpses

 

[Detective L 👑]

You got it.

( Fūin Wana Bakuhatsu ) – Sealing Trap Explosion

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Offensive, Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user places a seal on a chosen location which when an enemy target draws closer to the seal it will release itself in activation to the enemy’s chakra and cause an explosion.

( Shikoku Mujin ) - Four Black Fog Battle Formation

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: When the opponent is trapped inside a container of some sort, the user places five sealing tags, on each side of the container forming a rough pentagon shape. The opponent is then locked in suspended animation for one turn.
Note: If the opponent escapes the container or shatters it before all the tags are placed, he avoids the technique fully.

( Ho/Mizu/Kaze/Tsuchi/Rai Houin ) - Fire/Water/Wind/Earth/Lightning Sealing Method

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user takes out a scroll, and writes the name of the element they wish to seal in it. They then make four handseals, and a vapour comes out of the scroll, envelops the technique they wish to seal and seals it back into the scroll.
Note: This technique can only seal one technique up to S-rank per usage
Note: This technique may be used only thrice.

That first one is great, second one is the one that the Sound Four used on Sasuke, and third is to seal an element

 

[Ndlovu]

( Fūin Wana Bakuhatsu ) – Sealing Trap Explosion
Very simple but quite effective if you are creative with it. The fact that is responsive to the opponents chakra makes it great, so you don't have too worry about your way of activation. Does have some cons, especially it being short range. But if you are creative you can catch the opponent off guard.

( Shikoku Mujin ) - Four Black Fog Battle Formation
This technique is very hard to set up, in a fast paced battle. But I can definitely see it being used in an NW mission. placing five seals takes time and this can only be applied when the opponent is already trapped. It also only stops them for a turn. It is very simple to counter.

( Ho/Mizu/Kaze/Tsuchi/Rai Houin ) - Fire/Water/Wind/Earth/Lightning Sealing Method
Great seal here, short ranged, but being able to seal up to S-rank techniques for 20 chakra is great even if it can only be used once on the S rank. It can only be used three times but I think if you use them on techniques like an S rank and two A ranks, not only are you negating the attack but you are also conserving more chakra than your opponent

 

[Detective L 👑]

Very good, last one of the B ranks.

(Kuchiyose: Raikō Kenka) - Summoning: Lightning Blade Creation

Spoiler

Rank: B-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A (-5 per tool/weapon)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This is a special "ninja tool summon" that allows the user to seal basic ninja tools, like shurikens, kunais, swords, etc into sealing marks placed on their clothes or their body. The ninja tools can be summoned in an instant just by touching the sealing "marks". The greatest advantage of this technique is that the time between taking out a ninja tool, taking the right stance and actually throwing it is greatly reduced and one can unleash a barrage of weapons with great speed in a small time window. Also when a weapon such as a Fūma Shuriken is summoned, the time needed to throw it can be further shortened by having prepared the weapon in fully extended form beforehand. Sasuke even shown that you can have the weapons connected to wires and linked to their sealing marks and used the technique in sealing marks he placed in his wrist bracers.
Note: Can summon up to 30 basic tools per sealing mark and can have up to 2 sealing marks.

Then onto the A ranks, basically enhanced versions of what we covered before.

(Kyōkai Kekkai no Jutsu) - Boundary Barrier Technique

Spoiler

Rank: A-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 30 (-10 per turn remaining active)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This is a detection type barrier which is simply a more advanced version of the (Kekkai: Tengai Hojin) - Barrier: Dome Method Formation technique and that can be used to surround an area and allows the user to monitor a certain area covering from the sky to underneath the ground creating a sphere. The user will create a tag with the 許可 (Kyoka) Kanji and place it on the ground, doing the confrontation hand seal afterwards to activate it. After the barrier is erected, the user, if inside it, will be able to detect any enemy inside it, even if he hiding his presence. After that, anyone who enters or leaves the barrier is instantly detected as well as anything that moves inside it. Techniques that mask the users presence are ineffective at avoiding detection as the barrier focuses on movement and displacement of matter, not solely on chakra detection. The barrier can also be moved according to the requirements of the user by moving the tag.
Note: Can only be used twice.

(Tajū Mugen Hōyō ) - Multiple Infinite Embraces

Spoiler

Rank: A-Rank
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 30 (-100 to the target per turn, +100 to user per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This technique is a stronger version of Infinite Embraces and is used basically in the same manner. The user will do the Tiger → Dog → Horse → Dragon → Boar hand seals and slam his hands on the ground, creating a bigger barrier than the original technique but similar in its essence which drains the target's chakra but also pushes down on them making it much harder to break free. The massive pressure the technique puts on the target prevents the target from moving unless it has some sort of enhanced strength ability, making it very difficult to break free from it. Unable to move, the targets are also unable to mold chakra above A-Rank while having his chakra drained. The barrier can only be broken by A-Rank techniques or above or by attacking the user.

 

[Ndlovu]

(Kuchiyose: Raikō Kenka) - Summoning: Lightning Blade Creation
This technique explains itself very well. In high level fights, every second matters, this seal is made to prove that by providing a way to release the weapon very quickly. As digging in your pockets waste precious seconds, that would give your opponent a way to counter.

(Kyōkai Kekkai no Jutsu) - Boundary Barrier Technique
The big brother technique, this is great for detection and unlike it's lower ranked counter part it can detect through the ground. It also can detect long range and it can move which is very handy. The ability to detect against techniques that hide presence is also very good.

(Tajū Mugen Hōyō ) - Multiple Infinite Embraces
I have seen this technique used in multiple battles. It's a great technique, much better than it's little brother. First off it cost 30 chakra, drains 100 and gives you 100. It also pushes down with force making it much harder to come up with a counter since you are dealing with the force, plus you are unable to move. On top of this, the user is only able to use A rank techniques, which allow you to over power them since they are limited by this restriction

 

[Detective L 👑]

Very good!

( Hijutsu: Fūinjutsu Kai ) – Secret Technique: Sealing Release

Spoiler

Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra: N/A (same chakra as the seal thats to be released)
Damage: N/A
Description: The user can use this technique to dispel sealing techniques of various natures by forcefully breaking open the seal or, in extreme cases, erasing/cancelling them. For seals placed on a living medium, the user must make contact with the seal. For other seals, being in short range of it is enough. Normally, to perform this technique one needs to do the confrontation or the tiger handseal.
Note: Regular Fuuinjutsu users can dispel Sealing Techniques B-Rank and below. Uzumaki bios can dispel up to A-Rank. Advanced Sealing Specialists can dispel up to standard S rank Sealing Technique.

( Fūinjutsu: Seikatsu Kekkai ) – Sealing Technique: Living Barrier

Spoiler

Rank: A-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30 (-15 per turn active)
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user takes out two bladed objects and crosses them. This creates a seal that seals away 50% of the chakra of any opponents within short-range of the user, allowing them to use only upto A-rank techniques.
Note: Sealing Method lasts 2 turns maximum.
Note: If the opponent moves out of short range, he regains his original abilities

( Keiyaku Fūin ) – Contract Seal

Spoiler

Rank: A-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user, after having obtained some of the opponent's blood, touches a summoning that the opponent is controlling, causing a kanji formula to generate which forces the summoner to lose control of that summon. The summon does not fight for the user, but instead disappears back to its summon realm.
Note: Can only be used twice by regular sealing users while medical sealing masters can use it indefinitely.

The last one is a bit unique, as far as seals go.

 

[Ndlovu]

( Hijutsu: Fūinjutsu Kai ) – Secret Technique: Sealing Release
The technique is quite simple, you go close to a seal and forcefully break the seal. The skill is in knowing the amount of chakra needed for the technique and matching it. It is short range so you have to be up close, but you don't have to make contact with it to break the seal unless it's on a living being

( Fūinjutsu: Seikatsu Kekkai ) – Sealing Technique: Living Barrier
This is a great technique as it doesn't require handseals, but withdrawing a bladed weapon takes a bit of time. The sealing of 50% of the opponents chakra is huge as it is a percentage and not a flat number. The flaw is that they need to get out of short range to get their chakra back, meaning you need to stay in close quarters to really make this effective. It also only lasts two turns unfortunately.

( Keiyaku Fūin ) – Contract Seal
This one is quite different as you need to obtain some of your opponents blood which is very difficult in the first place. Then you still have to touch your opponents summon. Quite a tall order when you see how combats go nowadays. Making a summon disappear is great but this technique requires a lot of work to pull off

 

[Detective L 👑]

Very good, seems like you're understanding the seals. Someone actually made a CE based on the second one here Just goes to show, the amazing potential of Fuuinjutsu.

( Suji Haji Fūin ) - Muscle Restriction Seal

Spoiler

Rank: A-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A special fuuinjutsu utilized by taking a tag that bears the symbol for "Restrict". When placed upon the opponent it generates an electrical current that is not physically harmful. However this flows through the nervous system and restricts the movement of muscles. This slows down the opponent and prevents him from using A-rank Tai and above for three turns.
Note: If applied by a medical ninja with sealing mastery, the effect will last until released.

( Shishienjin ) - Four Violet Flames Battle Encampment

Spoiler

Rank: A-Rank
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 30 (-10 per turn to sustain)
Damage Points: N/A ( 60 if the opponent makes physical contact with the barrier )
Description: This technique requires four people or clones to use. The people must be standing forming a square, they will then make the snake handseal and clasp their hands. A barrier forms around them on all sides, stopping anyone from outside from coming into the square. If they touch the walls, they will be burnt by violet flames. The casters can add a secondary barrier outside to prevent them from being attacked by enemies on the outside of the square; although by doing so, they are unable to attack as well. Each barrier can sustain any A-Rank technique.
Note: Requires 4 ninjas or 4 clones to use.

( Fuuinjutsu: Bunshin Torappu ) - Sealing Arts: Clone Trap

Spoiler

Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: When an opponents is prepared to land a physical blow, the user quickly creates an earth clone to take the hit instead. The earth clone will then revert back to mud, which uniquely hardens to restrain the opponent's limb as the rest of their body is spread with cursed seals. However, it can be overcome if the user expels an S rank chakra surge.

 

[Ndlovu]

Which CE? O_O

---

( Suji Haji Fūin ) - Muscle Restriction Seal
This technique is very cool, as you can prevent yourself from getting hit in the face by an S rank taijutsu technique, it's not harmful and in my opinion a little tricky to excecute. Because if you are using this seal it means your opponent is extremely good at tai, so you have to make sure you act well enough and monitor your speed.

( Shishienjin ) - Four Violet Flames Battle Encampment
Great jutsu if set up, but quite difficult to set up as it requires four people or clones to set up in position. The fact that it does damage on contact is also great. Plus you are able to make more than one barrier so you can isolate and protect yourself. But the setting up is still very difficult as your opponent will likely anticipate it

( Fuuinjutsu: Bunshin Torappu ) - Sealing Arts: Clone Trap
I like this technique a lot, it helps you when you are in a bind at close range, not only does it allow you to get some space and not take damage from a tai or ken attack it also allows you to restrain your opponent and come up with a strong counter attack. Also because they are restrained you know their positioning allowing you to have the edge. Problem with this technique is that the clone might take a little long to form and if your opponent is extremely fast they might be able to circumvent this technique.
