Well, Graceful Fist revolves around the usage of Wind to augment close combat prowess. It is achieved through 3 basic rules that any practioner of Graceful Fist must know. First, to stay calm and concentrated, second, to be fluid in movement and third, to strike with maximum effect using knowledge of the human physique. This enhanced with Wind based chakra, which makes the user more fluid and precise. All this combined, creates a master of Graceful Fist who uses his knowledge of the human body to strike an opponent with ease and precision.

I want to learn it because it's extremely useful in close combat and pretty powerful too. It's also awesome and I like Wind z.z

I plan to use it, to augment my close quarters combat and allow me to be on par with other specialists. I also plan to use it to easily gain the upper hand if I were to be faced with a situation where I would have to resort to hand to hand combat. Overall an interesting CFS, and useful.

Good, good. You did help with it. So you know how it works. @_@

But I still need to ask these:

What are the three main rules of this style?
What are the two ways you can use wind release in Graceful Fist?

The three main rules are as follows:

1. A user of Graceful Fist must always be calm and collected. Which is what makes a Graceful Fist user so good, as they don't get anxious or nervous but think clearly and know where to strike when the opportunity presents itself.

2. To be fluid and swift, as a stiff fighter isn't as accurate as one which is fluid in movement and striking. Precision is key.

3. Being able to strike with maximum effect, knowing the specific muscle points and pressure points and striking them with precision.

Wind Release can be used to:

-Firstly, it is used to enhance striking effect of the user, and also make the style more effective. Shape manipulation is then used to mold the Wind into sharp projections which extends from your fingers/ fist, then combined with the knowledge of the human body, the user of Graceful Fist is able to strike a vital muscle or tendon to severe it. This allows for quick, fast blows which are deadly as hell.

-It can also be used as a supplementary, by coating your arms and legs in Wind chakra, and manipulating it, the user will be able to move around more fluidly and be a bit faster.

Okay now. I want you to calm yourself, so sit over there and relax, all I want you to have on your mind is this style and think about it mainly the Movement and Style & Striking with Maximum effect aspects of this style, and just relax and calm yourself. Not overly fussed on detail, but I want more then two lines.

In short while you are relaxing and calming yourself, I want you to explain to me the Movement/Style & Striking with Maximum effect aspects of this style.

Dean starts off by listening to Castiel, moving over to a somewhat barren part of the ground, a suitable place to sit down and meditate. Dean sits down, crossing his legs, although he himself didn't really like the process of meditation, it was Castiel, a good friend. So Dean closes his eyes too for a moment, keeping his mind on the aspects of the style and staying as calm as he could. The words Movement, Style and Striking with Maximum effect come to mind as he sits.

"Firstly, movement and style. Graceful Fist is done through the fluid movement of the body, and the user of the style's ability to watch every move of the opponent whilst staying calm and collected. Mostly countering incoming techniques, using fluid movement and calmness to observe the incoming fist/leg and counter accordingly. Probably why it's called Graceful Fist because of the movement of the user being so Graceful and fluid in movement. Then striking with maximum effect. A Graceful Fist user has knowledge of every muscle in the human body, and because of this, they can strike vital points and pressure points, greatly putting the opponent at a disadvantage."

Well done, now we need to strengthen your fingers, so what I want you to do; see that rock wall over there, I want you to go over there and strike the wall with your fingers one at a time, so after doing that about 100 times, if they feel as they are getting sore keep going, but don't push it, since breaking your fingers would be useless, so go do that now.


Also while doing that I want you to memorize this image below.

You must be registered for see images

"Alright."

Dean heads over to the instructed rock, which would meet the wrath of his fingers! Perhaps, before they break or get severely injured. Dean brushed off the thought of breaking his fingers, but it was possible. He then came to the wall and started slamming his right thumb into the wall, with great force. Although it was sore, Dean had to do it for the sake of learning the style. Whilst slamming into the wall with his right thumb, Dean left hand would hold the paper, which was informative and had the knowledge he needed. So he simultaneously studied that paper whilst slamming into the wall. After his right thumb became sore enough, and he knew it would break if he pushed it, Dean switched to his right index finger. Slamming it into the wall, much like the movie, Kill Bill Vol.2 (You must have watched that U_U ). This process wasn't a fast one, but it would help. As he finished off with his Index finger, his middle finger was next, the one he didn't want to break. It was the most difficult to slam into a concrete wall, as it was the longest of all the fingers. This finger took more time than the others. Next it was the right ring finger. Also pretty sloppy, Dean had to focus hard to keep it straightened and hit the wall at the right angle every time. Last but not least on his right hand, was his pinky finger. This one was easier to slam into the wall, and from here on out, it became far easier for Dean.

After finishing with his right hand, he stretched it quite a few times, spoke some crap and made a joke, then switched the paper over to his right hand, and start with his left hand. He did the same process with his left hand as he did with his right. This also, took quite some time to do. When he finished, he cracked all his fingers, and looked towards Cas.

"What's next?!"

Dean heads over to Cas, and listens, he then starts his reply.

"Alright, there are like 32 pressure points on the human body, ranging from:

-the eyes
-the nose
-the jawbone
-the windpipe
-the shoulder socket
-elbows
-the testes
-the armpit
-the spleen
-and various other sockets and joints of the body.

These are but to name a few, if you'd like I could go into detail as to what damage it causes when every area is struck, though that would be hell of a wallie xD

From the research I have done, one could say that the smallest and weakest muscle in your body is the stapedius. The stapedus is located in the middle ear. Its purpose is to stabilize the stapes (smallest bone in the body). So if this is struck with precision, it could badly damage the opponent.

From what I have seen in movies and such (series' U_U), I would say the Achilles tendon is the weakest, and would cause a great disadvantage if the opponent is cut there, It's also pretty damn hurtful if the opponent's Achilles tendon is severed. That are quite a few more tendons that if severed, would cause the opponent incapable of continuing battle, like the tendons and ligaments linking the arm or legs. "

Very good, don't think I need to add anything.

Now I want you to come at my clone and use free form tai, lighting striking his pressure points and muscles; don't use wind infused strikes, just bare strikes. Just for a practice type of things, once you have done that we will move to the wind side of things.

Dean listens to Cas, and immediately does as he is told.

Without further a due, Dean dashes towards Cas' clone, and puts a huge amount of power behind every step he takes towards the clone. He positions his hands beside him, and as he gets into close range of the clone, Dean thrusts his right hand towards the clone's shoulder bone, making him bend forwards a bit, then Dean crouches a bit a strikes with great precision at the clone's knee joint. Then, as he gets his body back up, Dean strikes the clone beneath the chin, sending him upwards. He then falls, a few meters away from Dean.

Well done.

Now it is time to using your wind chakra, so I want you for starters cover your hands mainly your finger tips in a semi-transparent aura of wind chakra...from that you will go over to my next clone, this clone is able to withstand blows, so with that I want you sever a couple of his wounds of your choice.

Dean listens to Cas, and starts off by concentrating his Wind based chakra around his hands, mainly his finger tips, in a semi transparent layer of Wind. This allows him to punch with devastating effects like severing muscles and tendons. Dean looks at his hands, and then immediately dashes towards Castiel's clone. He runs with great power behind every step, and keeps the clone in sight as he runs. Upon getting in close range with the clone, Dean propels his right hand forward, aiming to strike the clone on his shoulder bone with great force. This acts as a distraction, as he launches his left hand to severe the clone's right arm. With great precision, Dean strikes the tendon holding the lower arm and upper arm together, at the joint. This would stop the clone from using his right arm completely as he wouldn't be able to move it. After that, Dean grabs the clone by his collar of his trench coat, with his left hand, and pulls him towards himself. As the clone is pulled closer, Dean would once again strike him in his neck, with his right hand, severing it. This would definitely kill the clone.

Horrifyingly beautiful.
Time to add the wind chakra to your other limbs, and the rest of your body; now I want you to fun to that tree and back, while I perform some earth techniques that release spikes from that ground, I want you to use the chakra you covered yourself with to dodge, learn to use the chakra with your movement so you gain fluid movement, as well as being sightly faster when moving thanks to the chakra in your legs.

Castiel performs a simple earth technique that erupts spikes from that ground. Now, go!

Right as Castiel starts speaking, Dean starts to circulate his Wind based chakra around his very own body, covering his limbs with Wind. This has to be done in order to become more swift in movement and fluid in nature. Dean then takes off from his position, and sees the tree in the distance.

"I have to run till there!"

Dean dashes forward, and it feels much different. He feels swift and a bit more fluid. As he runs, an earth spike emerges right before him. Using his newly gained power, Dean sways his body to the right as he spins counter clockwise to dodge said spike with ease. Another two spikes emerge, and Dean runs forward, slipping in between them in a zigzag motion as he runs much more swiftly. These earth spikes ain't got nothing on him. Almost reaching the tree, he confronts another spike, that emerges right before him. Thinking that would be struck, Dean still tries to dodge it by moving to his left, and he actually does dodge it! He had gained a little more speed than before. He makes it to the tree and looks towards Castiel.

"You almost got me there!"

And with that, you have learnt the style:



Now onto the techniques don't you think?


(Just go into my cj thread and get it from there, when we have done the techniques! )

Alright. I just want you to perform them, and post some key features about each technique.


Type: Supplementary, Offensive
Rank: S-Rank
Range: Short
Chakra: 40
Damage: 80
Description: Heaven's song is considered the basic form of the Graceful Fist. The user will gather a large sum of fuuton chakra towards every point of their body and release it forward to create a semi-transparent white aura around the users body (finger tips, limbs, stomach area, etc.). When releasing this style the users take up the properties of fuuton chakra that corresponds with Graceful fist. The user will feel much lighter and fluid when using the style, especially in hand to hand combat where the user will be able to react with ease. This is because Graceful fist allows the user to watch the opponents every move with high level of clarity, this allows the user to counter an opponents attack in hand to hand combat. Due to being much lighter with the wind chakra around their body the user will be able to leap further and move around quicker. The user will also obtain a higher attack potency in battle. The user, whenever they deliver a attack towards the opponent it will cause serious sharp cutting pain because of the attributes the fighting style takes up. The sharp pain is precise and accurate furthermore since the user has high knowledge of the human body, knowing where every muscle and ligament are located they can use this cutting property to cut the muscles because of the sharpness this fighting style grants towards the user. This means the user can rip a muscle of the opponents biceps for example and completely render that arm useless or move with serious pain.
Notes:
- Can only be used three times per-match.
- Must be a practitioner of Yūgana Ken | Graceful Fist
- Can only be used in conjunction with Graceful Fist techniques.
