Castiel walks up to the battle field, and stares at the man smoking. Castiel has a displeased look on his face.
"Smoking? This training will be painful, you won't have time to smoke that."
Castiel said to the man as he walked closer to the said man, once he got within two meters of the man he said:
"Hello, my name is Castiel. I will be your teacher, I assume? What is your name?"

"Smoking helps to relieve pain, you should try it"
Asuma opens up a pack of cigarettes and offers the man one as he continues, "Nice to meet you, my name is Asuma Sarutobi."

"No thank you, maybe later not right now."
Castiel said as he sightly backed away.

"Lets get this show on the road. Let's begin with some questions. Please tell me the following:
- What is a ninja?
- What are the basic five elements?
- What is ninjutsu?
- And, why do you want to learn ninjutsu and why?
I understand this might be a task, but I need to know you understand what everything is"

Shinobi are the ones that endure.
They are people that have chosen and are prepared to endure whatever is thrown their way for the sake of that which they hold dear. For some that is their beloved village( Hiruzen), for some it is a person that they dear (Haku) and for some it is their dream. (Sasuke)
They are people that have chosen to defy the world and it's limitations. ( Gai & Lee) They are people who love ( Obito ) They are people who sacrifice everything for the greater good (Itachi) They are people who seek to change the world ( Nagato ) And they are people that get scared, confused, anxious... They are people. People who chose to endure, who choose to fight back. That is what a true Shinobi is.

Five basic Elements are : Wind, Earth, Water, Fire, Lightning. It is chakra transformed into a specific elemental state, each having its advantages and disadvantages. Nature transformation is generally used along with Shape Manipulation in order to preform various Jutus.

Ninjutsu itself has no Element. A Shinobi merely uses his pure chakra along with hand seals if necessary, combined with Shape Manipulation in order to perform various Jutsu's that have no elemental weaknesses or advantages.

I want to learn Ninjutsu because it is very versatile area that I feel every Shinobi should master. It provides it's user with many different ways to pressure his opponent, and to be honest, Shadow Clone Jutsu is one of the most useful Techniques in my opinion.

Everything is fine apart from this part:

"Ninjutsu itself has no Element. A Shinobi merely uses his pure chakra along with hand seals if necessary, combined with Shape Manipulation in order to perform various Jutsu's that have no elemental weaknesses or advantages. "

That was the biggest generalization of it I've seen, can't you go a little in depth with it?

Compared to what some other people write, that was pretty good U_U




Ninjutsu is the most important aspect of combat that a Shinobi can have. To use it, a Shinobi must have perfect balance between his Physical and Spiritual energy. Seeing as how regular Ninjutsu does not have an Element, it does not require one to master Nature transformation, however, Ninjutsu requires high levels of Shape Manipulation. Some of the techniques are capable of going as far as creating clones of the original user that are capable of thinking for themselves, and once dispelled, their memories return to the original user. This in itself should be proof of how versatile Ninjutsu can be, as long as one has mastery over Shape Manipulation, he can use his Physical and Spiritual Energy, his Chakra, in order to breath life into whatever his imagination created.

No it wasn't.

See that was better.

Let me add some more though.

Ninjutsu, or Ninja Arts, is the ability to, through the use of chakra, accomplish tasks that would be otherwise impossible to do. Ninjutsu are done by 2 stepts: focusing your chakra and molding your chakra. Focusing is using your will power to "will" a portion of your chakra to do something. On the other hand, molding is giving your chakra a set of characteristics that will enable you to produce the desired end effect.

Think of the chakra flow as our breathing. Normally, it happens passively, without any conscious intervention. However, when you need to you can use your will to control it. Its the same with your chakra flow. Its happens normally without your conscious intervention. However, you can focus your chakra and make it produce something.

Now, moulding the chakra is done by two basic principles: Shape Manipulation and Nature Transformation. These correspond to the two broad areas that one needs to change in the chakra to produce a jutsu. Shape manipulation pertains to the ability to give your chakra a desired form while Nature transformation pertains to the ability to give your chakra a desired set of characteristics/properties. Sometimes, to better mold chakra, ninja use Handseals. Handseals are simply hand gestures that allow the ninja to more easily concentrate and mold the chakra into the desired technique.

Any questions?
