[Lightning] - Bazz >_>

[BazzBee]

Perform the technique:
I begin to gather raiton chakra throughout my body, once i have gathered enough chakra i release it out infront of before molding it as i then close my eyes imagining a perfect replica of me as i manipulate it into an exact copy of myself, i proceed to open my eyes once i have created the lightning clone.

Creative uses/strengths: Like you said its always helpful to have one extra person in battle #handicapftw it can also use up to B rank raiton technique which is very useful in battle. You could make your clone release a lightning technique right after you have used a suiton technique on the opponent leading to him be electrified and doubling the damage due to the waters presence.

Drawbacks/counters: I believe the fact it gets reversed back to lightning once it gets hit, meaning it only requires a single hit to take down a raiton clone is quite a disadvantage in battle, it can easily be countered by one hit i would use the water gun technique seeing its pressure to take down the clone(s) since its a very powerful technique capable of creating cracks in rocks.

One question that comes to my mind is that, the clone is made of lightning chakra so will a simple water technique electrify the clone or..

 

[Noni]

It need to be a certain rank of water (B-Rank) to do any harm but from what I know, no.

(Cho Biburato Raitonto) - Super Vibrating Lightning Release Sword
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A (+15 to kenjutsu and standard attacks)
Description: The user channels their lightning chakra into a blade, increasing its vibrating frequency and giving it more cutting power than standard wind techniques.

This is a great way to improve your kenjutsu abilities and taking an advantage. The lightning channeled through will create a vibration frequency which gives it a super accurate and powerful cutting ability, beats out most wind techs. Now like I said close range battle will be to your advantage, its fast to make. You are vulnerable to most water attacks though. Very basic.

 

[BazzBee]

Perform the technique:
I proceed to gather chakra throughout my body, once i'v gathered enough chakra i channel it all in my right hand then further into the sword using nature manipulation to convert the chakra into Ligthning, one done i then proceed to cut down the dummy a step way from me before noticing how much more easy and strong the slash was then a normal slash.

Creative uses/strengths: Well its a simple jutsu which can give you a huge advantage to you in a kenjutsu duel, using this on an opponent after using a suiton technique to soak them is one of the best ways to use this, You could use a water technique to soak an opponent who is least mid range from you then use underground projection fish technique to emerge from the ground at the opponent 6 o'clock up close short range then use this technique to deal him double damage.

Drawbacks/counters: One of the biggest disadvantage is that it leaves you vulnerable to water attacks, Its rang is also quite a disadvantage to you, once you see the opponent hit you with this technique you could use the strong wind gust technique to blow away the opponent without along with his sword.

(Raiton: Dai Denki hoden no Jutsu ) - Lightning Release: Large Electrical Discharge Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: By Performing the ram hand seal the user will manipulate their chakra and they then raise their hand to the sky and an electrical discharge is triggered shocking the target.

Okay with one hand seal the user will raise their hand towards the sky sending a electrical discharge towards the opponent from the sky. Now its visible for the opponent to see you send the charge in the sky, so they can anticipate an attack, ways to mask them from knowing is hurting their vision. Its a fast performance tech but slow overall for the attack portion since it will be sent up and then have to go down taking two roads. It is though a normal jutsu and can be used to lure the opponents attention to the attack or used to try to attack in.

 

[BazzBee]

Perform the technique:
I preform the ram handseal and gather raiton chakra in my stomach, once i'v gathered enough chakra, i raise my hand pointing towards the sky and begin to channel the chakra to my hand before releasing it up into sky then triggering an electrical discharge from the sky towards the clone, one it hits your clone it delivers a great shock to him leading him to disperse.

Creative uses/strengths: This technique is quite useful in battle, mostly its range is very impressive, and personally i think this jutsu is one i would use in battle alot. A good way to use this jutsu would be to firstly catch the opponent off guard and use the water gun technique to push back the opponent which will also soak him, regardless of how much before he recovers from the force of the previous jutsu i would use this technique to deliver a shock which will double the damage due to the opponent being soaked.

Drawbacks/counters: One thing about this technique which could be considered a drawback would be that it takes a while for the elctricity to go up then down, so using a distraction to buy time would be wise before using this jutsu. Now this jutsu can be countered by various ways, the first and most easiest one would be using the lightning armour technique which would render the lightning useless against the lightning armour.

( Raiton: Rakurai Senkou ) - Lightning Release: Thunderbolt Flash
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user releases a current of purplish lightning from their hands forward, damaging and knocking away enemies. The range of this technique is, however, limited.

A basic technique, the user will release lightning of the color purple. The hands will aim towards the enemy or anywhere you want. It can shock and push an opponent back. Its a fast technique to perform and great to use if an opponent is trying to charge at you with speed. So you can stop them. Very basic and projectile based as well.

(Raiton: Shuriken Seigyo no Jutsu) - Lightning Release: Shuriken Control Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user will take out two large shuriken or Windmill Shuriken and channel their raiton chakra into them. They will then throw them at their target to pin them down and maintain a connection with the shuriken through a electrical cable that delivers a numbing shock to paralyse the target and restrict their movements.
Note: Numbing Effect lasts for one turn.

Okay the user will take two large shurikens or one huge windmill shuriken. They will channel raiton chakra into them giving a serious electrical surge through them. Then the user will launch one of the two choices of shurikens at the opponent. The user will remain in control of them throughout the whole time the jutsu is active, because their will be a lightning cable which the user can manipulate. Now its a projectile but you will consistently need to remained focus on the chakra of the shuriken(s) if not then the lightning cable will disperse thus stopping the shuriken(s). If an opponent is hit they will be pierced delivering a numbing shock through their body, they will be numbed for one turn. Restricting their movements.

 

[BazzBee]

Perform the technique:
I gather raiton chakra in my stomach, one i'v gathered enough chakra i channel it directly into my right arm before raising it and pointing towards your clone which was approaching me, i release the chakra in a purple lightning current towards the clone, which once hits your clone it electrified him and knocked him away; stopping his approach.

Creative uses/strengths: Now this technique is a very basic and a simple technique, which is likely to be used in battle, Its a great way to stop your opponents approach, a good way to use this technique in battle would be when the opponent is charging towards you from Mid range you could use a quick water technique to soak the opponent firstly before he reaches short range then using this technique which would not only cancel his charge towards me but electrify him and the damage would be increased cause he would be soaked.

Drawbacks/counters: The fact that this technique is short range is quite an disadvantage for you in battle; A simple and most easy way to counter this would be the lightning armour technique, but that would be to basic an explanation; another way to counter this technique would be to exhale a strong gust of wind by using the strong gust wind technique (or something like that) the wind would cause the lightning to change its course and avoiding you leaving the opponent open you could simply finish him off with a high rank technique.

----

Perform the technique:
I proceed to wield two large shurikens, i begin to gather lightning chakra throughout my body before channeling it all directly to my hands then into the shurikens using nature manipulation to convert the chakra into lightning; with that done a coating of lightning begins to appear around of the both shurikens along with an electric wire connecting the both shurikens, i proceed to swing my left hand and releasing grip onto the shuriken i wielded in that hand directly towards the clone, it stabs the clone, focusing chakra into the shuriken, the shuriken delivers a numbing shock to the clone.

Creative uses/strengths: Pretty useful jutsu, not one i would like to use in battle but it can be useful at times, Its a great way to achieve a free strike, You could possibly catch the opponent off guard then use this jutsu to numb them, then use a deadly attack such as Intelligent hard work technique to finish off the opponent; i think that probably a great way to use this technique >_>

Drawbacks/counters: Now it takes time for one to take out a shuriken then throw it especially a large shuriken i could use this time to think up a counter, or use under ground projection technique to emerge from he opponents back and finish him off using a deadly attack.

[Noni]

( Raiton: Purazuma Boru ) - Lightning Release: Plasma Ball
Rank: B
Type: Offensive, Defence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20 (-5 per turn active)
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulating their chakra generates a plasma barrier around them to serve as a defence which protects them from incoming attacks, even from something as wide-ranged as the Quicksand Waterfall Flow. However the user cannot use other techniques besides lightning release or physical based techniques while sustaining the technique. The user can rush at their opponents even if the barrier is active and use it to ram against them. The shield can be used offensively, by discharging the electricity in the direction of their choice in a wave resulting in using the energy of the barrier and ending its effects.
Note: Technique remains active for 3 turns.

A brilliant defensive technique, withdraw backs. Now the user will quickly generate a plasma ball around their whole body. This ball is powerful enough to take in some strong attacks as well as projectile attacks. This is great to focus on the offense instead of needing to look to defend, you will always have upper hand on the opponent. A huge disadvantage is you can only use lightning jutsus as well as physical based jutsus. You can move around the terrain normally even if the plasma is active, giving a very mobile feel to it. Also if an opponent touches the plasma ball or tries to get close they will be shocked, also meaning you have an advantage in close range battle and force a opponent to push back. Lastly to conflict a serious blow, the user can release the energy of the ball which, if it hits the opponent, can cause serious damage towards him. It can only go up to short range the blast and the ball will disperse when you use the blast. If you don't and want to keep it full on, it lasts only 3 turns.

( Raiton: Kaminari no Shogeki Ame ) - Lightning Release: Lightning Shock Rain
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulates their lightning chakra condensing into a orb of chakra and then releasing it into the air. The lightning orb will then remain in the air for several seconds releasing a continous rain of lightning bolts shocking any enemy within the radius of the attack.
Note: Lasts only the turn in which its used.

A good technique the user will condense a orb of lightning into their hands and release it into the sky. The ball will have built up energy and quickly after condensing it they will send the ball into the sky above the opponents area. After a few seconds (3-5 seconds) the ball will release its energy into countless needles which rain down upon the opponent, it acts as a way to pierce and shock the opponent. Now do not use this close to you. The bolts shoot everywhere short range within the radius its placed. So if you are in the radius it might hurt you to since the bolts shoot randomly. Also the rain goes down for one whole turn this makes it very tough for the opponent, its best you destroy the orb as soon as possible.

 

[BazzBee]

Perform the technique:
I gather lightning chakra throughout my body, once i have gathered enough chakra i release it around my body in the shape of a plasma barrier which creates a barries all around my body; Once the clone whom was approaching me was electrified once it came in contact with the barrier.

Creative uses/strengths: You could use this technique as fro your advantage by approaching your opponent forcing him into close range and cornering him then forcing him inside the barrier and electrifying him on contact, you could also intead of going through all the trouble of cornering him; you could stick the opponents feet using the earth mudshot technique to stick his feet to the ground then approach him forcing him into the barrier and electrify him xD

Drawbacks/counters: This jutsu is a great defensive jutsu like you said but it limits some major things required in battle; You could counter this by keeping a safe distance from your opponent precisely long range; and the best thing to counter this technique would be to use Fire release: intelligent hard work technique; seeing as fire has no effect on lightning it would be the best counter.

A question, Does this jutsu leave the caster vulnerable to water attacks ?

-------

Perform the technique:
I wait for my senpai to run out of range of this jutsu leaving me and my clone with in the range; i proceed to gather lightning chakra within my stomach, once i'v gathered enough chakra i channel it all directly in my hand; proceeding to release the chakra in the form of a orb formed of lightning before releasing it into the sky, As soon as i'v released the orb i use the underground projection fish technique to merge with the ground below and utilizing earth chakra to emerge from the ground at a long range distance from the clone, a second later spikes of lightning begin to rain down from the sky at the area, which pierce and electrify the clone casing him to disperse.

Creative uses/strengths: This jutsu is a very useful jutsu and surely one i would like to use in battle, Since alot of people use lightning armour technique to defend against various lightning technique; tho the lightning armour works for only one attack and this technique makes it lightning raining various needles rendering the armour useless, i would most likely use this jutsu after my opponent is under a genjutsu casted by me and is open for attacks.

Drawbacks/counters: The one disadvantage of this technique would be the 3-4 second delay for the orb to react and i would likely use this delay to my advantage while the orb is released i would create a distance of long range from the orb leaving me safe from the lightnign needles.

 

[Noni]

This template seems to be much better, and yes very vulnerable its a obvious set back. So we are done with B-Ranks, Please make a list of your top 5 favorite lightning jutsus in the B-Rank list 1-5. 1 being highest and explain why you put them in that order.

( Raiton: Kaminari no Shōgeki Ame ) - Lightning Release: Lightning Shock Rain

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulates their lightning chakra condensing into a orb of chakra and then releasing it into the air. The lightning orb will then remain in the air for several seconds releasing a continous rain of lightning bolts shocking any enemy within the radius of the attack.
Note: Lasts only the turn in which its used.

This jutsu has a reason to be on top; the fact its offensive and the chances of the opponent countering it are minimum at best if used well of course, one more thing; it rains down aimlessly piercing anyone in range which is something i think comes to my liking.

(Raiton: Gian Yari) - Lightning Style: False Darkness Spear

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user emits a spear of lightning from their mouth. The spear can then split apart to strike multiple enemies.

This technique is very simple yet so useful in battle; more the reason it lies second. also it's one jutsu i would use multiple times xD

----​

(Raiton: Hiraishin) – Lightning Release: Lightning Rod

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user raises their hands to the air, charging lightning. He will then unleash the lightning energy at the enemy target in the form of a lightning bolt.

Again another easy, yet simple technique to be preformed. And a jutsu which is very good to be preformed with a water technique.

(Raiton: Sandā Sāburu) - Lightning Style: Thunder Saber

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range:Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user gathers lightning chakra around his fist, generating a sphere of pure lightning around it. The user can then punch a target, unleashing the lightning in the form of a localized electrical explosion.

Well obvious reasons would be cause its the type i prefer to use in battle and a great technique to deliver damage to an soaked opponent.

(Raiton: Raiton no Heki ) – Lightning Release: Lightning Release Wall

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Supplementary, Defence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulates their chakra while doing the Ox hand seal and then releases it in front of him whilst holding their hands out. By doing this, the user generates a wall of lightning energy that can defend against certain techniques. The user can use this defence to shock enemy targets who attempt close range combat and deliver massive shocks to anything that comes in contact with it

Well this technique can be used offensively and defensively, which is why it includes in this list. And to prevent short range attacks and Lightning attacks, this technique would be the one i would use.

 

[Noni]

Now we do A-Ranks !!

(Raiton: Raisogekishin ) - Lightning Release: Lightning Rat Violent Quake
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: After performing the required hand seals Monkey ? Ox ? Boar ? Tiger the user releases a discharge of electricity that fires several destructive disks of eletricity.

This jutsu is simple projectile technique. The user after 3 hand seals will generate from their hands lightning which they send towards the opponent and mold it into a disk. You can send more then one disk; they are very fast and destructive. It can easily cut through some of the hardest rocks. It also has a shocking property. Each disk you send the more weaker they get though you can send a rapid amount to make evasion tough. You can send one disk and use another technique, its mobility is up to you to decide.

 

[BazzBee]

Cool beans.

Perform the technique:
I proceed to preform the required handseals whilst gathering lightning chakra solely into my right hand, once i'v gathered enough chakra i swing my hand whilst quickly using Nature Manipulation to convert the chakra into lightning before releasing it out front then proceeding to use shape manipulation to shape the released lightning into that of a disk before directing it towards our clone, it cuts your clone whilst electrifying him at the same time.

Creative uses/strengths: This technique is a fast and destructive technique as you said. It Slices yet electrifies your opponent simultaneously which is very useful in battle. The opponent wouldn't risk being caught up in the technique and will most likely plan a counter, though to prevent him from doing so i would place my opponent under a genjutsu most likely the illusionary hellfire technique where he will see a fireball emerge from the sky, this will most likely capture his attention when i looks back he will be served with a lightning disk.

Drawbacks/counters: This technique may be fast once executed but the fact it requires 4 handseals before releasing it is more then enough time for the opponent to react a counter. This technique can be evaded by many ways firstly when the opponent is preforming this technqiue i would use the hellfire technique so he would be forced to cancel the preform duration.

 

[Noni]

Pretty good, the hand seals are a downside. But four is never that much as long as you know you have time and the opponent is distracted you will have the advantage.

(Raiton: Chidori) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user must first perform the following sequence of hand seals Ox ? Rabbit ? Monkey ? Dragon ? Rat ? Bird ? Ox ? Snake ? Dog ? Tiger ? Monkey and they create a lightning jutsu that is concentrated in the user's palm and thrusted toward the opponent at high speed. The lightning in the user's palm sounds like birds chirping, hence the name.
Note: Someone who mastered lightning release can perform chidori with just the Ox hand seal.

The famous chidori. The user will do 7 hand seals and generate the chidori into one of their hands. Now I don't think their is much for me to say that you might not already know. The chidori is a very destructive melee attack jutsu, one hit and the opponent will receive terrible damage. Not only can it pierce the opponent it will numb the area hit, so if the opponent does survive he will have a tough time to move. The chidori has a sound to it, which sounds like one thousand birds chirping, you can hear it easily so you can anticipate the attack. Its a concentration type jutsu, you must consistently fuel the chidori with chakra.

---

(Raiton: Chidori Nagashi) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds Current
Rank: A
Type: Offense/Defence
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: This jutsu allows the user to generate non-focused electrically charged chakra from their body. Because the electricity isn't focused, it doesn't kill on contact, instead it only paralyzes. The lightning can be channelled through metal objects, as well as spread out into the air or ground.

Another known jutsu by all. The user will send non-focused lightning chakra through the entire body and release it towards the opponent. On contact it can paralyze the opponent, not kill though but its numbing ability is very strong. When channeled short range it covers the whole radius, if you send it at a opponent from mid-range it travels straight as a projectile on the ground or air. You can also channel it through metal giving it a shocking potent ability to the metal which can cut better and numb the opponent if hit with it.

(Raiton: Ikazuchi Hakai) – Lightning Release: Lightning Destruction
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: After performing a small sequence of hand seals the user will place their hand on the ground converting their chakra in to lightning. The user then sends an enormous bolt of electricity that cuts through the ground in the direction of the enemy. The shape of the bolt is a triangular with the base in the direction of the user and the tip headed towards the target. It causes devastating destruction on its way and generates enough heat and power to destroy whatever it comes into contact with.

After a small set of hand seals the user will place their hands on the ground and send a electrical surge through the ground cracking and tearing it through. It cuts through the ground all the way towards an enemy. The shape of bolt is triangular. The base will be in the direction of the user, while the tip towards the enemy. Now its a very powerful technique able to easily destroy the ground and tear through many metals and rocks. A huge downside is it moves quite slow since it takes up a shape of a triangle. The bolt will easily be heard when ripping through the ground, its also straightforward since you know the tip will attack the opponent, lastly you must keep your hand on the ground until the tip hits the opponent. When it does the opponent will be seriously wounded and down due to the destructive shock.

 

[BazzBee]

Perform the technique:
I preform the necessary handseals [Ox -> Rabbit -> Monkey -> Dragon -> Rat -> Bird -> Ox -> Snake -> Dog -> Tiger -> Monkey] and proceed to gather chakra in my stomach, once i'v gathered enough chakra i direct it all to my right palm and use nature manipulation to convert the chakra into Lightning itself; with that done lightning begins to appear around my palm additionally a sound of a thousand birds chirping includes (quite annoying >_>) before i thrust it towards the clone as it electrifies it and disperses the clone.

Creative uses/strengths: Okay this jutsu is actually very offensive which is one i would most likely use after i have my opponent restrained from preforming any counters which i would do by either limiting their movements or the best yet easy way a genjutsu which would be the Hellfire technique stealing the opponents attention to easily preform the seven handseals then thrust it towards him when he looks back down.

Drawbacks/counters: Wiether you like this jutsu or wiether you hate it you cannot argue with the amount of time it consumes to be preformed; which is more then enough time for the opponent to react not only that but the additional sound of the technique makes it less capable for a sneak attack; the sound itself would get the distracted opponents unneeded attention. Including the fact it can be easily countered by when the the opponent is preforming this jutsu i would get myself out of range leaving the opponent at long range and unable to attack me.

----

Perform the technique:
I gather raiton chakra in my stomach, one i'v gathered enough chakra i proceed to channel it throughout my entire body and use nature manipulation to convert the chakra into lightning itself before releasing it towards your clone; once it comes in contact with him he gets electrified and becomes numb leaving the clone open for a strike.

Creative uses/strengths: This jutsu is pretty useul at times, the range is not bad either. I would most likely use this technique to create an opening for me to strike my opponent with a higher rank deadly technique to finish him off; seeing as its a fast technique to use in battle its pretty difficult to avoid if used in short range, or likely not even avoidable.

Drawbacks/counters: The fact this jutsu isn't focused on refrains from killing the opponent which is quite a let down but it does make it up for its good points. I would counter this technique by using the lightning armour technique as its the most easiest one that comes to mind, the armour would cancel the lightning and therefor you won't be numb.

----

Perform the technique:
I preform a small set of handseals before gathering chakra in my stomach, once i'v gathered enough chakra i channel it all to my right hand before slamming my hand on the ground and using nature manipulation to convert the chakra into Lightning before releasing it into the ground causing cracks to occur while using shape manipulation to shape the ligthning into that of a triangle which's point is facing the opponent which is your clone; the triangle travels towards your clone destructing its path along the way once it reaches you clone its heat and power alone were enough to disperse the clone.

Creative uses/strengths: This jutsu is a pretty useful technique in battle i would like said previously; limit my opponents movements or cause an distraction before using this jutsu , which would be either by a genjutsu or a elemental jutsu. I would firstly use the (Raiton: Chidori Nagashi) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds Current (xD) to numb my opponent firstly before striking him with this jutsu.

Drawbacks/counters: Now this jutsu may be a magnificent jutsu by destructive power, but its speed while preforming is lacking time; firstly i would preform handseals then slam my hand on the ground which would make my opponent suspect a jutsu from the ground so he would most likely prepare a counter. It can be countered by using the under ground projection fish technique which you would use at first site of the triangle shaped lightning.

 

[Noni]

Basic for the most part. When you master chidori you will be able to do it with one hand seal.

(Raiton: Chidori Senbon) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds Needle
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user reshapes the Chidori in their hand into the form of countless senbon. It has more specialized speed than the normal Chidori and can cause damage throughout multiple places on the body. Although it’s not stated, this technique probably takes on Chidori's characteristics such as its ability to cut through almost anything and numb parts of the body.

Its fairly simple but nice, with one hand seal the user will gather their raiton chakra into their hands and condense it creating the chidori. They will then raise the chidori high and release its energy which in turn release multiple needles which can pierce through an opponent and paralyze that area hit.This is a great distracting technique since it fires from all over the place it would be very tough on an opponent to dodge them and blocking is just as tough since their is a constant fire of them being released. Its fast and easy to perform. A downside is you must keep focused on the chidori to contently send the senbons towards the opponents area. So I recommend creating a clone, if you have the training of course to send a straight attack to hurt the opponent. Note you are also a target for water jutsus, so expect the opponent to use a water jutsu on you for if the palm with the chidori is wet the lightning will go crazy and shock your entire arm or body depending on just how much water is used.

---

(Raiton: Sanda Appu) – Lightning Release: Thunder Up
Rank: A
Type: Offence
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user concentrates a lot of lightning chakra into their hand and compressing it into a ball of energy and then releases it at once, causing a huge explotion.

Very simple technique. The user will gather lightning in their right hand condense it all in one ball and release its energy towards the opponent causing a explosion, which can shock the opponent and push them back with some force. It only goes short range, its a fast performing technique as well as a quick release. Very simple and basic, nothing you have not already seen. Its a projectile based attack as well.

---

(Raiton: Jurokuchu Shibari) – Lightning Release: Sixteen-Pillar Bind
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: After performing the needed hand seals Rat ? Monkey ? Horse ? Tiger the user will create a even more powerful version of lightning release: four pillar bind, the user creates sixteen giant pillars, which then form a giant oven to trap the enemy. It is often used after Earth Release: Mud Fall to cover the enemy target in mud and then follow up with using Fire release: Firing Biscuit, creating flames in the oven to roast and harden the mud, immobilizing the enemy.

Funny technique since it does generate any lightning whatsoever but it can work with combos and is very large. The user will 16 pillars after performing 3 hand seals which wrap around to create a box almost to trap anything within it. Its large enough to trap a summon or many opponents. The bind has a small box which you can send techniques in to finish an opponent off. The pillars are made of earth.

 

[BazzBee]

I just found time to respond and unfortunately it was on my phone so the detail isn't the best.

Perform the technique: I preform one handseal gather chakra in my stomach, once i'v gathered enough chakra i channel it to my right hand before using nature manipulation; condensing it and creating a chidori before raising the chidori up and releasing it as multiple needles around it which pierce the clone and causing it to disperse.

Creative uses/strengths:
This jutsu can be used to numb your opponents body parts, which means the numbing the opponents arms and legs would leave him vulnerable to almost any attack, pretty obvious but thats also what makes this jutsu useful in battle, its simple yet a fast technique to preform during battle. One more thing about this is that you could use this jutsu not only to numb your opponent but also to offence damage upon the opponents body because the lightning pierces the body.

Drawbacks/counters:
As always, this jutsu leaves you vulnerable to water attacks like you mentioned not only that but concentration is required as long as you mantain the chidori which could also leave you vulnerable to long range fire attacks seeing as how the lightning needles only spread out to mid range. Once you see the opponent preform a handseal and create a chidori in his hand, you could use that time to escape long range using the underground projection fish technique as its quick to be executed.

----

Perform the technique: I gather a great amount of chakra in my stomach, once i'v gathered a great deal of chakra i channel it to my hands before using nature manipulation to convert the chakra into lightning; with that done lightning starts to appear around my hands before using shape manipulation to compress the chakra and shape it into that of a energy ball which i release towards the clone standing short range from me, once released it results in a huge explosion which electrifies your clone whilst the force pushes him backwards.

Creative uses/strengths:
A very simple yet such a useful jutsu in many ways, it pushed back the opponent and electrifies them and it doesn't even require any handseals. You could use this jutsu as a combination with the lightning shock rain technique by firstly pushing the opponent backwards whilst electrifying them with this jutsu then use a genjutsu technique and then proceed to release the orb created with raiton chakra in the air and make it rain electricity needle's which pierce him and electrify him; releasing him from the genjutsu but.. in a cruel way.

Drawbacks/counters:
The range of this technique is a big disadvantage also the fact its projectile based like you said; It could be countered by using the ligthning armour technique once you see your opponent create a compressed ligthning ball which he's going to release towards you but since the armour is also lightning the attack would be rendered useless.

----

Perform the technique: I proceed to preform the necessary handseals before gathering chakra into my stomach, once i've gathered enough chakra i release it throughout the ground forcing 16 pillars to arise from the ground around the clone creating an oven, i then proceed to send in a lightning attack in the small box, once the lightning hits him he gets electrified and disperses.

Creative uses/strengths:
The good thing about this jutsu is that it can be used to trap multiple opponents or even summons and is quite a combo friendly technique such as once i've preformed this technique i could send a water technique in the small box seconds late i would send a lightning attack which would electrify him and doubl the efect since its water. Like this various combo's could come in mind with this jutsu.

Drawbacks/counters:
Well one main draw back would be the fact it requires 4 handseals to be preformed before using the actual jutsu which is quite time consuming the the opponent wouldn't most likely stand and wait, so you will have to cover up the drawback by either a distraction or genjutsu. The fact it surrounds you leaves you with very less likely chances to escape so the best way to escape would be to use the underground projection fish technique to escape the oven and finish off the opponent.

(Raiton: Chidori Eiso) - Lightning Release Chidori Sharp Spear
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user increases the range of their Chidori by using form manipulation to extend it into a blade up to 10 meters in length. This blade is capable of splitting into multiple additional blades upon contact with an enemy, drastically increasing the number of wounds it can inflict. Like other Chidori-related techniques, this jutsu will numb its target upon contact.

The user will form a chidori which he then summons a spear to erect out. The spear is very useful to keep a distance away from an opponent, it also acts as a chidori which on contact will numb the area of the opponent if caught. You can wield the spear with great ease, it can cut through the most solid of metals. Its great to use to finish an opponent off, and the spear when release is very quickly. The spears also after piercing an opponent can release more spears at the tip to completely destroy the opponent.

(Raiton: Rairyu no Tatsumaki) - Lightning Release: Thunder Dragon Tornado
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user forms a whirling vortex of wind and electricity around themselves. The vortex will take on the form of a dragon’s head and will cover the area in front of them. Even if the attack doesn't directly connect with his foe, the lightning can jump from the vortex to hit a nearby target.

The user will release wind chakra and spin it around like a vortex, then add lightning on the edge of the wind chakra not touching one another. The wind acts as a base. Now the vortex can be a barrier and a attack. Its projectile based when launched but needs to remain focus while performing it, though its quick performance. The best part is if a opponent tries to evade the lightning can be manipulated and jump out the vortex to shock a evading opponent. It inflicts serious shock and pain.

(Chidori Kireme) - One thousand Birds Breaker
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user will deliver several punches and kicks to the opponent sending them into the air where the user will then strike a Chidori into their back.

The user from short range will begin to deliver punches and kicks at the opponent. Now with this small attacks be sure to describe where you are hitting and how. I recommend aiming for areas like the groin, head, and ankles. Then the user will have to deliver a final punch or kick to the chin sending the opponent in the air. From the air they will be hurt from the body attacks, then with great speed you will jump so high and fast your going to appear right behind the opponent in the air, then strike a chidori in their back. Piercing them from behind, the movement is very quick and hard to evade when you jump into the air. I recommend before you start the body attacks try to put the opponent off guard, something basic is sending a flash bomb to blind the opponent for a second, which is all you need to be in range and hit the opponent. Its a devastating jutsu, very deadly.

Sorry ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Perform the technique: I preform 7 handseals and proceed to gather raiton chakra within my stomach, once i've gathered enough chakra i channel it to my right hand, proceeding; i mold the chakra into lightning with the help of Nature manipulation once done lightning begins to appear around my hand. Forming a chidori i proceed to mold the lightning/chidori into a spear-like which erects upto 10 meters long. I then thrust the spear-like chidori towards your clone, piercing him and numbing the precise part of the body where he was stabbed. The clone shortly after disperses.

Creative uses/strengths:
Okay, this technique is pretty useful if you have activated the chidori, extending it into a spear which can erect upto mid range is pretty impressive, and quite unexpected for the opponent to know that the chidori will extend. It may seem very combo friendly but that's just because it is. Like for example when the opponent is distracted a jutsu i could most likely cast a genjutsu and this jutsu but not that it is all it can do you could also use this at a mid range keeping the opponents mind assured that he's at a safe distance yet when it extends ...

Drawbacks/counters:
The fact one must have a chidori activated to use this jutsu can also result in a downfall since it requires 7 handseals. It can be countered when you have the lightning armour activated rendering this jutsu useless. pretty basic but thats all i could come up with atm.

Perform the technique: I gather wind chakra throughout my body along with lightning and proceeding to channel it after gathering a precise amount directly to my hands before releasing it whilst using nature manipulation; molding the chakra into wind and forming a vortex and proceeding to manipulate a dragons head before releasing the lightning chakra on the edges of the wind chakra, being very precise about not creating a contact between them before manipulating the lightning chakra to extend out and electrify your clone.

Creative uses/strengths:
Pretty useful jutsu, though i am confused that is it's main objective to electrify anyone who tries to charge in or.. ? anyway it's a projectile based technique obviously but not only that it can also repel lightning attacks seeing as how it is wind, if the opponent uses any projectile based lightning technique will be repelled once it come's in contact with the vortex of wind, seeing that it's a pretty useful and the fact it works as a defend against lightning techniques as well as offence your opponent.

Drawbacks/counters:
One main drawback would be the fact that the opponent could use infact many jutsu's to counter this which is pretty obvious besides that i don't see any drawbacks. Countering this technique seems nothing hard-a-job; the jutsu itself requires continues focus so using the earth shaking pal technique would knock him off balance as well as his concentration disabling the jutsu leaving him vulnerable to pretty much anything.

----

Perform the technique: I approach your clone who was standing in a short range distance before twisting my body and lifting up my right hand and thrusting it forward at your clones gut causing him to bow down before lifting my left hand and thrusting it towards his jaw just before leaping down and thrusting up my left leg; using my right hand to balance myself, thrusting up my right leg at your clones jaw lifting him in the air leaving him air-bone and quickly charging power within my legs and using them as springs to bounce of into the air and behind the opponent with speed while doing so i also gather chakra within my hands and molding the chakra into lightning with nature manipulation; forming a chidori before using it to pierce your clones back as he disperses on contact.

Creative uses/strengths:
One main thing about this jutsu is the fact it leaves you with damage regardless if you are able to avoid the chidori. A good combination with this technique would be to activate the lightning armour just before your first strike increasing the total damage to the opponent with the first attack.

Drawbacks/counters:
This technique has one great draw back which is the fact it requires close range combat which is very likely avoidable in the NB RP. You could avoid this technique by using the water jutsu where you transform your self into water itself rendering your opponents attacks useless as it won't even lift me up in the air >_>

Note chidori variants don't have hand seals. Also when you complete the lightning training you can do a regular chidori with one hand seal.

(Chidori Tokkan) - One Thousand Birds Rush
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user will first strike the target with a slash from their sword hitting them into the air and then as they begin to land the user will drive them into the ground with a Chidori.

This is very much similar to the jutsu from above but with only a sword. Now when the user dash towards the opponent with the sword the user will begin to strike the opponent with the sword slashing them upward into the air, the slash will cut them pretty badly. I would say aim for the stomach or chest, this would make the cut very long as well as have a large place to aim at in the body. In the air they will be vulnerable, when they begin to descend you will once again appear from behind them and send a chidori to crash them back into the ground, great jutsu to use for short range. Very deadly technique.

(Raiton: Raiko Shishi Rendan) - Lightning Release: Lightning Flash Lion Combo
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user knocks the enemy into the air with thier Sword and jumps at them quickly after. They then proceeds to punch and kick the opponent while still in mid-air. After their combo, the user ducks to the floor, just underneath the opponent. As the opponent reaches him, the user strikes the falling opponent in the back with his Chidori, and then lets the helpless victim falls off.

This is pretty much a combo of the two jutsus above. User will dash towards the opponent and slash upwards sending opponent in the air, while they are in the air you will jump up and begin to deliver a series of punches and kicks sending them even further up. Then with the opponent with serious injuries, the user will drop down to the ground and create a chidori. Then the opponent will fall onto the chidori piercing them. This is a brilliant short range attack and hard to evade. I recommend evasion to be Drunken fist, makes it hard for the opponent to guess your movement and will be unable to touch you. This is a combo in itself.

( Raiton: Raiun ) - Lightning Release: Thundercloud
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: The user generates a cloud above the battlefield kneaded with their chakra and then cause a series of lightning bolts to rain down upon the battlefield causing severe damage.

This is a very wide range technique. The user will create a clouds above the battlefield right above the opponent. The clouds will be generated with with a large amount of raiton chakra. Right when the cloud is made which does not take much time, the cloud will release its energy into a series of fast moving lightning bolts the size of rains. They rain down and cover a wide range. Try not to get caught under the cloud when it launches the bolts or else you can be effected. The bolts can pierce and paralyze. Its great for attacks in the air to distract or create awesome combos difficult for the opponent to evade. All you need to do is form the cloud and then release the bolts, you can move onto the next technique. The cloud though can be blown away with ease.
