Haven't tried out the method system training except for the basic 5 elements, so you can expect modifications to training in between, randomly.

A cool breeze blew over the plain grassland, as Ace stood, with his hands in his pockets. A young girl walked towards his direction, and Ace stared at her for a short while, seeing if she matched the description of the girl he was told to train.

Ah, so you must be Lyanna. Welcome; I am Portgas Ace. Before we start with the actual training, I want to see how much knowledge you have on the basics. Tell me what is chakra, what are handseals, and what actually is Ninjutsu. Be as descriptive as you can.


Once he spoke, he lied down on the grass, lighting up a cigarette, awaiting the girl's answer.

Greetings Sensei Ace

Chakra
Chakra is the energy that we all have within our body.It emanates from our stomach are and flows throughout our entire body.It is what enables us to use jutsu and enhance or hand to hand combat. depending on your clan or kekkei genkei your chakra will vary from others in their intensity and personality.(.g those with yuki chakra naturally suited to water/ice jutsu resulting in specialities.)
Handsigns
The every day shinobi or anyone who utilises chakra minus the samurai use handsigns to manipulation and control their chakra to achieve a desired effect .Some handsigns are traditionally used or associated with an element.Such as tiger for fire .There are a total of 12 traditional handsigns one may use with variations capable of being used.Such as haku's one handed handsigns and the shadow clone jutsu handsign.
Ninjutsu
Ninjutsu is the art of using chakra to create a physical effect that is not neccesarily elemental in nature. This could range from affecting ones voice to project it elsewhere or to create hundreds of copies of weapons in an instant.

You got the basics correct, but your descriptions are vague, said Ace, his lips curling into a slight smirk.

He then took out a large scroll from his pocket, and handed it over to his student.

Contents Of Scroll

Chakra: "Chakra" is basically life essence or life force which exists in human bodies and animals. Without it, a shinobi can die. It can be considered "blood" and soul for a ninja. It is the molding of physical energies and spiritual energies in the body. Physical energy is the energy given off by the body cells and can be increased with more stamina and practise. Spiritual energy is derived from the consciousness of the mind and can be increased through great concentration and meditation. It is the basis for all almost all the ninja skills like Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, except Taijutsu in some special cases. It flows through the chakra circulatory system, and in it, there are 361 points aka nodes in the body known as tenkutsu. The function of the tenketsu is to regulate and control the flow of chakra. If these weren't present, then chakra would flow through some specific organ, thus there wouldn't be a balance in the chakra flow. Every ninja in the narutoverse possesses a chakra pool. Shinobis with a very high chakra pool like Naruto can perform a lot of higher ranked techniques like Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, etc. without having the fear of getting their chakra depleted at once. Senju Clan members for eg, have very high chakra reserves and a high physical energy aka high "Yang" energy, thus their naturally strong bodies and on the other hand, the Uchiha clan members have a very high spiritual energy, i.e. high "Yin" energy, thus their proficiency in genjutsu and visual prowess. It is possible to have high chakra if you possess very strong willpower. If chakra runs out completely in a shinobi, then he dies as shown when Kakashi died due to his chakra completely running out against Deva Pein. It can be divided into several types like:

Elemental Chakra
Senjutsu chakra
Bijuu Chakra

Ninjutsu: Ninjutsu means "Ninja Arts" and is something that allows the shinobi to do something that a normal human can't do, like walking on water, manipulating elements, the usage of special as well as bladed weapons, stealth, transformation, etc. The effects of ninjutsu are real. Most of the time, it heavily relies on the usage of handseals as well as chakra. Regular ninjutsu doesn't incorporate the usage of elements for it, like stealth, a basic Rasengan, etc. Elemental Ninjutsu is an advanced form of ninjutsu, which incorporates the usage of basic 5 elements, as well as advanced combinations to create stronger jutsus which have the respective properties of the 5 elements. Elemental ninjutsu is stronger to regular ninjutsu, since regular ninjutsu only uses raw chakra, whereas, elemental ninjutsu uses both Shape Manipulation and Nature Transformation. The perfect Rp example would be that, a Wind natured or a Lightning natured Rasengan would have a greater destructive force than a standard Rasengan, obviously because the elemental Rasengan contains violently rotating chakra as well as the violently rotating chakra is given the property of the respective elements.

Handseals: Handseals are hand gestures, which primarily manipulate chakra and dictate the exact amount of chakra needed for the respective specific technique. Weaving of handseals makes chakra take different "patterns". Some techniques require a large number of handseals, which is related to the complexity of performing that technique and if not weaved properly, in order, or if the user loses focus in between, then the technique is either executed in a weaker state, or it is dispersed midway, depending on the specific technique. A good example is Water Dragon Bullet Technique. It was shown that the technique required a string of 44 handseals to perform, however the Second Hokage, Tobirama could perform it with a single handseal, due to his unparalled Water mastery. It is shown in the manga that with time, a shinobi after mastering the specific technique, requires one-literally no handseals to perform it, an example being Chidori, which required some handseals when Sasuke just learnt it. In our RP, the user can perform any 2 elemental releases of his choice, depending on the elements he has placed as specialties, with one-virtually no handseals/faster handseals. Usually, handseals are performed with both the hands, but Haku, Minato, etc have demonstrated the ability to perform it with only a single hand. The 12 basic handseals are Monkey, Ram, Dog, Horse, Dragon, Boar, Rat, Snake, Ox, Hare, Bird, Tiger.

Any questions?

No questions
OOC: Okay. Now, we'll start with the method system.

Method System

In this system, each jutsu is grouped into the 'method' or category it falls in, irregardless of rank. After I finish explaining to you what the method entails, I'll ask you to list jutsus, which would fall under the method we would cover, which would test your understanding. Once you do that, I will teach you the jutsus of that method rank-wise and then move on to the next method. It was made by Lili and Scorps, and then somewhat modified by my sensei, Reborn and me.

The methods for Ninjutsu fall under the following categories:

General Techniques
Bukijutsu
Summoning Techniques
Advanced Shape Manipulation

We'll start off with the first method. The techs in this method have their own individual properties, thus each one differ from each other.

Method 1: General Techniques

This method would be synonomous to the "Specific" or "Other" methods that exist in the other methods. None have specific identified relations to other techniques in the method with the exception of a few techniques being linked to each other in small groups within themselves. This method is put forth first as there are a series of techniques that have a direct link to the basic E-ranked ninjutsu that is given to everybody by default. Within this method alone there are sub-categories with relation to the E-ranked basics:

Stealth: Techniques that involve hiding within cover and/or moving silently around the senses of your opponent to attack blind spot.

Transformation: Techniques that involve transforming one's appearance through furthered applications of this basic technique.

Clone: Techniques that involve creating clones of various other types through furthered application of this basic technique.

Invisibility: Techniques that involve hiding with the usage of chakra to camouflage your true location

Substitution: Techniques that utilize high speed movement intended to avoid attacks that may or may not involve substituting the body with another object.

The remaining techniques that aren't in the sub categories in this method are stand alone.

Now, can you tell me what would be the advantages/drawbacks of this specific method?

Sorry for delays
--------------------------------
Advantage
Advantage of this is that sever could probably cross over into the other sub categories example would be the transformation into fuma shuriken would fit into stealth(when applied correctly) and transformation
Disadvantage
Hmm i suppose it could be time consuming sorting and performing them separately but at same time some would overlap

Vague, but okay.

Advantages of Method

The advantages of this method vary based on the techniques. In regard to the specific sub-categories where the advantages of the methods are similar to the techniques they're categorized in. Stealth techniques give the element of surprise, transformations allow for the element of surprise as well or give the ability to manipulate objects for alternative purposes. Clone techniques give extra comrades in battle, invisibility/camouflage fools enemy senses etc.

Disadvantages of Method

Again, the disadvantages vary. For the sub-categories, in the event that you're fighting in a place with limited cover or cover that's easily rendered, stealth techniques become harder. As well they are weak to sensory type shinobi. Transformation techniques can be broken rather easily (seen through by sensors) or broken through hard enough impact. Clones are limited in their creation and are dispelled easily upon being impacted with moderate force. Invisibility techniques suffer a weakness against sensory types to a degree, and substitution techniques are limited in their usage in our RP.

Now, if you don't have any doubts, list all the jutsus from the Ninjutsu list which would fall under this specific method.
