You wait for what seems like hours and then the sky begins to blacken. Thunder begins to flash and all you see is Ragna jumping into your arms Scooby doo style. "Man that was scary. *gets down* anyway tell me all that you know of Raiton please. Don't mind the thunderstorm we're totally safe. Feel free to tell me about yourself as well."Waits patiently for his Senpai.
"Woah that was intense. Nope, I have no questions. But I find the strengths and weaknesses quite interesting, especially the strengths. I would have never thought about the lightning getting rid of the shadows thing.
(I gave some input within quote box Don't forget a single jutsu can possess two or more of these qualities.)Big Jutsu: Advantages of this are that it can cause mass destruction, effectively being able to destroy many people in a large area at a time. Also, if used with water, it can electrocute everything at a large range. A disadvantage is that if the user is not careful, they can electrocute themselves. Also, since this technique is used on a large scale, it also takes longer to perform.
Yep this is good. Be sure to remember that unfocused lightning is the primary way to electrocute things through water. It is fairly known that big jutsus will take a while and wont be able to be used in close combat situations.
Streaming Jutsu: This is good to use if the opponent is trapped and cannot move, then you can just keep a constant stream of the attack on them. However, since you are constantly supplying Chakra to this technique, another technique can not be used at the same time.
Yeah the main downside is other jutsus can't be used. Upside is it will be difficult to dodge if you are constantly attacking with a streaming attack. If a combo begins with this type of attack then your combo kinda ends. LOL, unless you purposely cancel the technique for whatever reasons.
Source Jutsu: Using the natural surroundings as a means of attack is awesome as you are not using a such energy. It can be used at a large mass too. A disadvantage is if the user accidentally channels the Raiton to themselves.
Now you don't particularly use lightning as a source like you do with earth or water but there are variations where you use thunder clouds or charge yourself with ration (via sky/clouds). You don't have to worry about getting electrocuted unless you are in water.
Support Jutsu: This is good to use in conjunction with another Justu. Since it is used to support, it probably uses less Chakra. Also, the Jutsu that it enhances can become deadly, when previously they were not as dangerous. However, the user may not have enough time to use it. Or, this might not help much with supporting a Jutsu.
Yeah time is a drawback. If you are bombarded with attacks it might not be in your best interest to waste a move slot with a support jutsu unless it can give you tf advantage. Just because its support does not mean its chakra is low. If you have an A rank support jutsu it will be 30 chakra points regardless.
Omni Jutsu: This is very convenient as it can be used as both an attack and a defense at the same time, and a very good one at that.
Nothing will be able to get next to the user worth ease. But, this probably uses a lot of Chakra.
Again if ou created a Omni style B rank attack it would cost B rank chakra. It doesn't necessarily have to consume a lot of chakra. The most notorious is Nagashi. It surrounds you in omnidirectional lightning short range. Any attack attacking the enemy from all directions is a plus as well. That way they cant focus on just a single point.
Direct Jutsu: Since this does not travel, the opponent will be caught off guard as they did not see it coming. However, the opponent might swap their place with the user if they have the ability, and the user will get harmed instead.
Not sure if they can do that especially at mid/long ranges but yeah the best part is the surprise. It gives less time to react because it originates at the enemy position. In certain cases this can be a drawback as you are open to a path of attack.
Projectile Jutsu: Techniques like this will carry momentum in them, thereby becoming faster and stronger. However, the opponent will clearly be able to see it, and can make arrangements to avoid it
Yeah these are fairy basic. Reliable counters and they don't leave you open. The allow you to perform multiple combos because after they leave they will continue in their set motion..
Thanks for the extra information, it's pretty interesting.(I gave some input within quote box Don't forget a single jutsu can possess two or more of these qualities.)
"Now that we are done with the drudge work lets go to my friends house. It's the wise Positive Knight. On our way there I won't you to take this dollar store chakra paper and develop your Raiton chakra. If you cant do it then I will leave you out to dry in the rain and have you write a 10 page paper on how that statement makes perfect sense."
DISCLAIMER: Characters in this training are not real or canon. LOL
Ragna was in a great mood. He always loved taking his students on these unusual adventures so that they could become stronger through them. Sitting in a single place, performing jutsu, writing notes, it wasn't his style. Many viewed his ways as eccentric but to Ragna that was a compliment. Suddenly he heard his new student behind him. He wanted to know if he had done what was asked of him. Ragna took the paper and examined it closely. "Perfect man great job! Now you don't have to dry in the rain and writ a paper. Just in time too! Yo Positive Knight come out!"Thanks for the extra information, it's pretty interesting.
Tiashe dutifully follows his teacher to his friends house, someone he calls Positive Knight. He hopes that this friend of his is actually positive like Ragna, and not a grumpy old guy. On the way, Ragna hands Tiashe a piece of paper. Thinking that it was a piece of rubbish that his teacher wanted him to throw away, Tiashe decides to throw it away into the next bin he comes across, but quickly changes his minds when he hears Ragna's next words.
So, he thinks, I have to develop my Raiton Chakra huh? Hearing Ragna's next threatening statement which totally made zero sense to Tiashe, he decides not to test Ragna's theory and is determined to develop his Raiton Chakra. Honestly, Tiashe thought, How on earth is one meant to write about how drying in the rain makes perfect sense? At this point, Tiashe wonders if this teacher knows what he is talking about. ._.
Whilst walking, Tiashe tries thinking about the properties of Lightning. It is fast, piercing and it vibrates. So holding the paper between his fingers in the right hand, Tiashe gathers Chakra in that hand, and he converts it into Raiton Chakra by vibrating it at a very high frequency and also fast. This makes Tiashe feel excited, and he jumps five metres in the air, surprising him greatly. How he could jump that high, he did not know. But as he lands back on the floor, he is grateful that his Sensei could not see that stupid act as he is walking slightly behind him. Realizing that with his excitement the Chakra had dispersed, Tiashe tries again, following the exact same procedure, except this time he controls himself and does not jump around.
Tiashe then lets this Chakra out from his fingertips, allowing it to flow into the paper. Immediately the paper begins to crumple from the middle, extending outwards up until the whole paper is crumpled. Feeling a little scared that this was not how it was meant to look like, Tiashe summons the courage to show it to his teacher. He speaks calmly, as if there is no fear or nervousness in him.
So is this how it is supposed to look like Ragna Senpai?
Tiashe waits the answer, hoping it is correct, because he really does not want to write a ten page paper on how drying in the rain makes perfect sense...
After you performed the jutsu the circuit board got busted.....this was a dumb idea. Positive Knight began freaking out but you wouldn't be able to tell because he still sounded happy.Tiashe breathes a sigh of relief as Ragna tells him that it was done right. Just then, Ragna calls his friend out and a guy with the name Positive Knight emerges. Tiashe wonders what Ragna must have done for him to be questioned about his teaching, but then remembered and found it funny as he recalled his first encounter with his teacher.
They then started a conversation about Tiashe learning Raiton, and he just stood there listening, wondering what a strange fellow this Positive Knoght was. But then, he supposed that Ragna was kind of strange too, so them two could get along with each other.
Tiashe was then surprised that he was asked to fix an air conditioner by electrocuting it, he wondered if it would even work... He thought of it as quite a strange request though. Hadn't he come here for training? What was all this fixing up something for an old guy thingy?, he thought. Oh well, better do it before Ragna comes up with some strange threat for me is what Tiashe thought.
Tiashe walked over to the circuit board and faced it. He gathered Chakra within his right arm and he gave it properties of Raiton Chakra by vibrating it really fast. He then released this Chakra out from his fingertips, and as he did so, he performed shape manipulation on the Raiton being released to form it into small bolts of lightning. Tiashe aimed these bolts at the circuit board, and they shot out of his fingers really fast. Tiashe then waited to see if the guys air conditioner would work or not.
There you go Mr Positively Old. Lets hope it works now, and no, I'm not doing anymore favors for you.
As you hit the dancing earth midgets with your attack they stopped momentarily but then started dancing even better and faster.Great, so I've busted the circuit board. So much for listening to Senpai's advice. Geez. Looks like I've got an angry geezer going now. I thought I wasn't going to do anymore favors for him... Oh well, guess it can't be helped.
Tiashe thought the guy looked pretty funny when he was worked up. He then turned to Ragna as he spoke to him. Tiashe was not one to speak much, but he decided to anyways.
Wait, Lawle something and Caliburn coming for dinner. How is that even my problem? I don't even know who those guys are.
But since he was curious to see those people, Tiashe decided he would comply once again. After listening to his teachers instructions, Tiashe saw a group of some strange looking things appear. He had never seen such things before, but apparently they were monsters...
Tiashe gathered chakra in his right hand and molded it. He made it vibrate and gave it properties of lightning. When the strange monsters were about five metres in front of him, Tiashe bent down on one knee and slammed his right hand into the ground. When he did this, the chakra was released from his hand, and travelled in front of him until it reached the monsters. He could tell they had gotten a shock then since they stopped moving.
Oh god you went and did it now. You performed the technique wrong. This isn't a single bolt attack, you will have to release a wave of bolts to attack them all. (They're small enough to be attacked at the same time with this kind of attack.) If you just attack them one at a time from your hand or else they will just start pop locking and transfer the electricity to one another to reduce the damage. THESE GUYS ARE OUT OF CONTROL PLZ STOP EM. ;_;Ater seeing that his attack had just made the problem worse, Tiashe seemed to be quite amused at the way the earth midgets could dance. He knew by now that, even though he was being asked by Ragna to perform techniques to get rid of them, that even his next technique would make the situation worse. So, he decided to just enjoy the monster show he was putting on, since he knew he could not get rid of them anyways.
Tiashe gathered a small amount of chakra in his right arm, molding it to make Raiton chakra. Lifting his arm up, Tiashe pointed it at one of the earth midgets, firing a lightning bolt at it. The bolt travelled in a linear path, and was quite fast, reaching a distance of four metres tok fast for Toashe to even see. He wondered if the bolt would not just excite them though, since they didn't seem to die from his previous attack. He proceeded to do this to all of them, knowing that they would just come back though. Anyways, he didn't care about the food. He realized that he was just getting amused at his Sensei's reactions to his attacks.
The lights....surpsingly didn't break...but they kept getting brighter...and brighter..and brighter until you couldn't see anything. Out of nowhere Ragna had put on some shades and handed some to Tiashe. "Well, this was unexpected but when has light ever been a bad thing eh? I'll leave some shades here so they don't go blind. ON TO THE POOL!" Ragna sprinted towards the pool; however, he did not put on his bathing suit..yet. He pointed towards the pool as he explained what they were doing. "If there is any chance, and I mean any chance at all that we will see Lawliet in her bathing suit we have to clean this pool out. So what's going to happen is I will manipulate the water to spin around me and you will combine it with the Raiton attack im about to teach you. You will create a wave of electricity from your hands that can be released as a small surge or more like a stream of powerful lightning that goes ahead and cuts through obstacles, and it is worthy to note that this attack is only short range but if you combine it with water it goes as far as the water goes. We must destroy the algae. 0_0As Tiashe blasted the earth midgets with the wave of lightning, he watched on, highly intrigued, as they started to dance around along with the wave. They looked pretty cool, as if they had some natural knack for dancing, but he knew it was because of the lightning. He decided to keep this in mind, that perhaps he could now make people dance with this technique? He laughed silently at the idea of it, but he ended up laughing a little more loudly than intended when he witnessed his teacher going and joining the earth midgets in the dance! He wondered if he should go and join them too, it looked funny and tempting, but he was much too reserved for that.
Besides, he then noticed Positive Knight announcing the arrival of his friends, sounding excited at the idea of having dinner. Oh no, thought Tiashe. What are Lawliet and Caliburn going to think of us now? He face palmed, feeling slightly ashamed, but then saw Lawliet smile and wave at them. Being his unsocial self, he did not wave back, but Ragna did instead. And to his surprise, the earth midgets also did too! Oh, the nerve they had! Tiashe then watched slightly amused as Ragna came to his senses and realized it was the visitors that had arrived. Tiashe caught Caliburn giving them a stern look, and decided he would stay out of his way. He was already good at that anyways. Luckily PK was keeping them busy for now. As he did that, Ragna spoke to Tiashe.
He was being given a set of instructions and when Ragna said 'What can go wrong?', Tiashe immediately cringed inside, because he knew what could go wrong. A lot... He did not even want to start naming the possibilities, but he supposed that it was these 'gone wrong' occurrences which kept him interested with training in this element.
So, just before the visitors were on their way to go inside the house, Tiashe ran in before them. Whilst running, Tiashe performed the Tiger, Snake and Dog hand seals, so by the time he finished he was standing somewhere in the middle of the house. Gathering chakra in his right hand, Tiashe molded it into Raiton chakra by vibrating it at a high frequency. Then extending his arm out in front of him, Tiashe released a current of lightning. It travelled to all the lights in the house, carefully guided by Tiashe to make sure they did not hit anything. They only hit the lights, in order to switch them on, yet Tiashe had a feeling that they would break...
(I guess I'd go with three at a time.)
