Re: Ninjutsu with Cobi !!!
Deactivating his invisibility as his student arrives late, Kakuzu can be seen with his eyes closed and in a meditative position.
Not a good first impression. Then again, first impressions tend to be wrong. Now, tell me everything you know about Ninjutsu.

After seeing his Sensei arrive, Lambo stands up and bows to greet the sensei properly.
"We shall change that then. " - Lambo said before he continued with explaining what his sensei told him to.
"Ninjutsu is utilized by using chakra, and by which you can perform things or actions other people can't. Ninjutsu can be used for defense, offense or other supplementary techniques. It can be used for special utilization of tools, creating clones or transforming, and a lot of other things. Many Ninjutsu techniques require Hand-Seals; precise hand movements that shape and focus the necessary chakra to perform each individual technique. By this we came to shape and nature transformation. Shape transformation is the process in which you shape the desired technique. This happens by thinking of the desired technique, and then giving thoughts a form. The better the thought, the better the jutsu will look. Nature transformation is included in the subclass of Elemental Ninjutsu. By it we understand the process of changing the properties of normal chakra and transforming it into an element. Not all people can actually combine their physical and spiritual energies, since it takes hard work and dedication. There are still Shinobi's that without using Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, enter the list of Top-Class Shinobis, like Guy and Lee.

Re: Ninjutsu with Cobi !!!
Kakuzu slightly tilts his head to the right, quite intrigued that his student knows a considerable amount already.
Quite impressive. You already know a substantial amount about Ninjutsu, so let me further fortify your knowledge with my explanation of Ninjutsu and everything it entails. However, one thing you failed to mention is that since Ninjutsu is a more primitive version of Elemental Ninjutsu, most techniques in this category are actually weak to all elemental ones. Few exceptions exist such as Rasengan, where the chakra is worked and molded with advanced shape manipulation, putting it on equal terms with elemental variants. Once you've read and understood the following, we will proceed.
Ninjutsu is the usage of chakra to perform various tasks which can't be performed otherwise. Its an extremely broad term and encompasses many things such as: weapon usage, medical uses, transformations and so on. Unlike Genjutsu, its effects manifest in reality and not solely in the illusonary. A notable user of Ninjutsu is the 2nd Tsuchikage due to his arsenal of highly regarded techniques. Through chakra manipulation alone, he could achieve flight through unknown means, turn his body completely invisible and "split" his chakra into two separate bodies. His splitting technique far surpassed conventional clone techniques as both halves of him are considered the "real" version of him, meaning they couldn't be dispersed.
Ninjutsu isn't solely based around chakra usage and performing complex techniques and maneuvers, but is also in reference to the skill set a ninja should possess. The term "Ninjutsu" literally means ninja skills, leading me to believe its actually a more abstract concept to what we first perceive. A ninja should be a keen analyzer of situations, capable of conjuring up plans, tactics and counters, both in the heat of a battle and in preparation for one. They must make proficient use of the various ninja tools at their disposal, using all of the utensils they possess to the fullest. Awareness is another very important skill a ninja should possess. Paying close attention to detail, making logical inferences about your opponent, gradually deciphering your opponent's fighting style, noticing minute disturbances in your surroundings and remaining vigilant at all times is required if a ninja is to survive. Often a lack of awareness leaves you prone to assassinations, being struck by invisible attacks or worse still, making you unable to realize nor release an illusionary technique.
Even with the astounding abilities a ninja can come to acquire, he/she should never overlook or forget these fundamental rules. It could very well result in their downfall.

Alright, our Ninjutsu training can be broken down into the following three categories:
-Weapons Usage
-Logistics of a Battle
-Learning the Techniques
The techniques will be learnt in the following groups:
-Ninja tools, scrolls and weapons usage
-Stealth and Subterfuge (My personal favourite)
-Transformations, summons and clones
-Rasengans
-Miscellaneous (All other techniques grouped together)
Note about my training: Since I make you specialize in the different categories one at a time, you'll be learning techniques with different ranks in a random order. That being said, you cannot make any Ninjutsu custom techniques until you complete all of the Ninjutsu techniques.
Right now, we'll begin on weapons usage in a battle. Tell me about all of the ninja tools you know of, describe them thoroughly and how they can be used in battle.

A a tear dropped silently from his eye ...
Ok, firstly the most known ones, kunais and shurikens. A kunai looks like a dagger and has bandages at it's handle(not always). It has different usages like stabbing in close combat, or simple throwing it from the distance. Most of the cases, they are also used for distraction There are different variations of kunais, like the ones Minato used for his techniques. Many Ninjas also wrap them with sealing tags, for them to explode in contact. Many ninjas were seen transferring their chakra to their kunais or other tools to increase their power.
Shurikens are shaped like a 4-angled metal star. They are used for throwing, distracting or also pinning the opponent. Shurikes vary in size, starting from the smallest one which can fit in your index finder, to the gigantic ones seen in Ten-Ten's arsenal. There are also the so called Fuma Shurikens, which differ is size and shape from the normal shurikens, but are more dangerous and compact. Shurikens can be enhanced simply with chakra, or you can use a more advanced method by combining it with an element, especially lightning, to increase it's lethality and destructive power.
Now starting with the chakra blades. They are shaped like small blades, which fit in all of your fingers except the thumb. If I remember correctly, Asuma stated that they were made from some special metal that could conduct and absorb chakra better than the other tools. Depending on how many chakra the user puts into it, the weapon varies in power. We have seen Asuma using chakra to sharpen and extend them to the point that they looked like a katana.
As I've seen during the IV Shinobi World War, may ninjas were using fans as their weapons, similar to Temari. There are some types of fans, but the most noticeable ones are the folding and non folding fans. In Temari's case(the folding fan), the destructive power was determined on how many times she unfolded that fan. If she made a complete unfold, the power she used was at it's max. It is able to blow a powerful gust of wind without the need of wind techniques, just by simply swinging it. If used as a median for a wind technique, it's destructive power is also increased, resulting in a powerful wind technique. Now to the non-folding fan, or the so called Gunbai. Till now there has been only one , the one that Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha were using. This Gunbai has the ability to utilize many techniques, which were very powerful. It was also used to counter top-tier techniques, as displayed when Madara deflected Naruto's mini biju dama.
Now to swords. There are actually quite a lot of them in Naruto, and thus I am just going mention the most famous ones. Starting from the basics ones, swords are weapons used by most of the ninjas in NV. I guess I don't have to explain how they look, but there are some special swords, that differ from the normal ones in terms of shape, ability and power. The 7 Swordsmen of the Mist were a noticeable group originating from Kirikagure, which were famous for their sowrds. Each of them differed in shape and had an unique ability. There are also special swords like the Totsuka blade(which is in liquid shape and has no form). It was said that that blade was able to pierce through everything , and was even stronger than the sword of Kusanagi, which supposedly was it's rival.
Now heading to smoke bombs, which are shaped like spherical metal weapons. In the inside they are filled with smoke, and when in contact with a solid object, they explode and release smoke, thus creating a smokescreen. They are mostly used when people find themselves in difficult situations and need to escape, or just to block an opponents view and make a surprise attack.
Now to the stuff that I don't know if they're considered tools or not, starting from the scrolls. Scrolls are long pieces of papers scrolled and which contain sealing tags. They are mostly used for sealing weapons or summonings. We have also seen special cases like Sai, in which he was using scrolls in combination with his ink ninjutsu. Now jumping to ninja armors. Almost every Jounin wears a armored jacket, which doesn't actually give the idea it's actually armored. They protect ninjas from simple kunai throws. Each nation has their own outfit, thus differing from village to village.
And coming to the last one I remember, strings. I've only seen Sasuke Uchiha using this on the offensive against Itachi, were he was tying them into his forearms and using them for different purposes, like releasing sealing tags which contained kunais and shurikes, till to the extent of tying them to his ninja tools for him to be able to use them in times of need. Also, they were used when Naruto and Sai first battled together, but mostly on the defensive.
This is honestly all I can remember. I also wanted to include the Sage's tools, bu they were a bit OP for "everyday use" Lol.

In future split your longer replies into paragraphs.
Excellent display from the both of you. Make sure all of your replies are of that caliber. However, you failed to touch on flash bombs or the relevance of speed of projectiles. Shuriken are faster than kunai and senbon are faster shuriken. People seem to underestimate or ignore projectile speed especially when it comes t to arrows. Using long-winded/slow techniques to stop fast-moving projectiles isn't something you should do. As for flash bombs, they're the same as smokebombs only they emit a powerful, blinding light. Anyone who looks upon them (unless they have some sort of immunity) is blinded for one turn.
Angle and direction of Ninja tools
These are the realistic aspects of the RP. We will be covering one at a time starting with Angle. These are some of the things you need to keep in mind when fighting in a battle.
Angle is a very important part when battling and if used right it can give you the upper hand over your opponent. It's very important to understand the angles in a battle. This is mainly used with ninja tools (shuriken, kunai and other projectiles) but you can also use this with certain techniques that are launched at your opponent. Just by stating the angle you can confuse your opponent.
For example:Ninja 1 and Ninja 2 are fighting. N1 throws 2 kunai at N2, one at the angle of 25 and the other on 55. The lower the angle,the faster the projectile. Most new people would say:"I intercept the kunai with one of my own, blocking them both." If you use angles, this is where you can score.
Here is a pic for reference:
If N1 threw the kunai at an angle of 25 first your opponent would probably be defending from that one first thus he would fail to notice the other one. If he blocks the first one then the second one would hit him unless he kept his focus. Thus with one blow you can cause fatal injuries. (Credits to Cobalt)
Another neat trick I picked up is the efficient use of a flash bomb. By hiding a flash bomb in your sleeve/hand and dropping it onto the ground behind your position, you'll slyly blind your opponent without blinding yourself giving you the upper hand. Now, this is a nice tactic, however spamming it or over-using it will make you look unskillful and reliant on the upper hand it gives you. Use it sparsely.

Sorry about the late reply. Exam season is almost over. I'll be replying actively from now on.
Now, I want you to state and describe all of the different types of terrains that could be fought in, be as creative as you'd like. Along with this, I want you to list the different types of weather conditions and their significance to you in battle.

It appears as if my teacher is doing far more than a normal ninjutsu training....I like it. Alright, explain to me what he asked. All the various Terrains And weather conditions which you might face in the battlefield, along with their significance.
So, there is a considerable amount of terrains one can find himself in.
I'll be making a list :
Plain terrain
Rocky (Balboa)
kun:
Forest
Desert
Inside buildings
River (with water source, obviously)
Muddy
Dry terrain
There are probably other terrains, but I guess this are the most important ones.
As for the weather :
Sunny
Rainy
Windy
Cloudy
Snowy
Foggy
And I guess depending on the temperature.
So, I guess it's logical to say that if there is a rocky terrain, earth users have an advantage. If there is a river there, water users have the upper hand and so on.
Also, in a windy weather condition, wind users will find themselves in a more favorable situation for them. It's it's cloudy, lightning users, if it is rainy water users and so on.
That is all I think.

While you are not wrong, and the reply was concise you have merely scratched the surface. Everything you explained even when NK was teaching you, was Logistics of Battling. You see,the terrain is one very important and crucial part of battling. Because dependent on what terrain, some techniques become more useful than others, and the opposite. There are rather simple ways of looking how which techniques become more useful and which ones don't. Let's take for example, a rocky environment. While of course and undoubtedly, it might help with Earth release techniques, It very well helps with stealth intentions too, along with confusing the opponent with clones. Another good usage, would be water, considering it is rocky, water can collect far easier, from already used techniques, either by you, or natural phenomenon. You will see a great usage even in distracting techniques, or weapon usage, as the path of movements, will be greatly limited. IT is rather hard, to escape a technique, when behind you is either a cliff, or the opposite, a great wall.
Let's take the next one which you mentioned, Forest, which is one of my favorite locations. Forests are amazing in the usage of traps, and ninja wire, such a simple tool of battling. You can create very quick trips, and due to the monochrome colors of a forest, mostly green and brown, here and there, the tiny wire will be barely visible. Another one is hiding, and clones, considering the trees provide nice shelter for surprise attacks, and even more hiding positions for existing clones. Earth release might find a theoretical strength, as along with the earth segments, trees move along, limiting movement and speed greatly. Remember when in the Naturo series, the Edo Jinchuriki attacked Naruto and Bee? Bee leveled the entire forest, because he needs space for his destructive forces, and to keep an eye on his enemy. Use this at your advantage against powerful enemies. They say picking your terrain is half the work to winning, be smart about it. Then comes wind and rustling of leaves, distracting sounds, ect, ect....you have tons to expand if you just stop and think.
A desert is truth be told, the worst environment to fight. For the first, Earth release doesn't really work with fine sand, and if you have large tundras around you, it will be very limiting in your ability. You have no water around, unless you are the 1-100000 lucky ones to fight close to a oasis, and wind might be useful, but supplementary, only to blind your opponent using the sand storms. So, unless you got a jinchuriki gaara bio, refrain from using or agreeing to fight in a desert.
Inside buildings...are generally very specific, and it depends on the building largely. You might have it useful to the limited space, if you are an expert in closed quarter combats, and you specialize in pinpoint attacks, rather than large army attacks, but...building have the thing, or being rather quickly leveled. Building are also very limiting in movements, against those large terrain leveling attacks.
River's are rather obvious I believe. You may use the water source for many water techniques. But, along with that, you can use the sound of a gushing river to mask most of your movements or actions, which have the same sound as a rive. Another good usage, against specialized water enemies, is directing the river with earth release, either away, or far from you and your opponent. OR do the opposite, and direct the river, to attacking your opponent, or against large masses of fire, if you do not have the sole means of power of stopping it.
Muddy is....a pain in the ass truth be told. Because the swamp release technique, is simply used and overused. Well, now you know, you can use the earth swamp, without too much trouble. Earth release fails rather since the mud cannot be perfectly collected into creating a very solid earthen structure, and water is very beneficial against that mud, specifically. Since it can very well, wash it off. Another element, is fire, which might try the mud, and make a very brittle earth structure, which can shatter easily, while with a long range fire, this mud, can become a harder earth. Terrain alternation is very beneficial, in all of these terrains.
As for the weather conditions, I will explain them not separately, but tell you your general point of focus. Use, all of your senses, in determining a location. Add up to the logic, the techniques which each person might have, along with their specialties, what they use mostly in battle, and what they generally rely upon. This, is in a sense, research. IF you fight someone who is adapt in Rain, in a raining environment, you will get easily killed, as I have been once, to be more precise, one shotted. Another one is using the sound of each of those conditions, the rain, the thunderstorm... And along with those, use your elements wisely. It is all a game, so be sure to play it right.
Any questions?

Add up to the logic, the techniques which each person might have, along with their specialties, what they use mostly in battle, and what they generally rely upon. This, is in a sense, research. IF you fight someone who is adapt in Rain, in a raining environment, you will get easily killed, as I have been once, to be more precise, one shotted. Another one is using the sound of each of those conditions, the rain, the thunderstorm... And along with those, use your elements wisely. It is all a game, so be sure to play it right.
Any questions?

Ok. I will have to ask one more thing of you. What are, the logical outcomes or conclusions, when elemental ninjutsu, clash into one another. In a sense, lets say fire and wind hit together, do not focus elemental strength and weakness, rather, tell me what would logically happen. When you answer this, I guess we can move on to actually explaining the techniques. Considering this will be a wallie, I will say you begin with Fire first, then move on to Wind, Earth, Water and Lightning.
Fire wind - The wind would fuel the fire.
Fire earth - This will probably result in a hot, near molten stone (logically speaking).
Fire water - Well it would result in a big area covered by hot steam, making vision hard for a bit.
Fire lightning - Well, this is tricky i guess, but Lightning would actually "pierce" through the fire, and probably get even stronger. I'm not sure, since considering that the fire would still get past the lightning.
Earth water - Probably the result will be a mudy surface.
Earth wind - Will probably result in broken pieces of rock/earth and probably would stop with that. The wind couldn't advance.
Earth lightning - Hmm, in this case, considering lightnings destructive force, the earth would get shattered and the lightning tech would pass through.
Wind water - Would probably result in a big splash, which would cover the area in water. Neither technique would pass through imo.
Wind lightning - I'd say in this case, the logical outcome would be based on elemental strength and weakness. It would probably neglect the lightning, but im not sure if it would be able to move forward.
Water lightning - In a logical result, if the water technique is a streaming one, the user would probably get roasted, literally. Though if it's not, I'd say that if the lightning user uses the technique while near him, it'd affect him too, considering water's versatility.
This is all I guess.

Very well done. I liked the logic that went behind. You didn't really have to explain elemental strengths and weaknesses, I was more asking on logical outcomes and conclusions. Either way... allow me to expand on them.
Fire - Water
If both fire and water will clash and negate one another, we can say a lot of steam will be created from this. The reason why it will be created is a simple reaction which is boiling this water, and changing it's state from liquid to gas, forming humidity in the air, which is a lot thicker than other gases not allowing you to see. It will be like a thick mist. The steam will mostly be thick enough for me to be able to maneuver around without the enemy seeing what I am doing. I could use this chance to either throw another attack, or change my location. Keeping in mind through, the enemy could do the very same thing, or just use a very strong water technique to blow the steam away. Another fact would be the sizzling sound, which might mask other sound movements, or terrain alterations in distance.
Fire - Wind
Fire and wind have a unique relation with one another, wind is able to make fire stronger if you combine it, but if they clash together, wind will take the disadvantage. The oxygen present in the wind will help the fire to burn stronger. Rule of thumb is, fire is one rank stronger than wind. So if you were to clash an A rank fire vs an A rank wind, fire will take over and beat the wind. Another thing is that if fire and wind are use both into conjuction, you could see that the fire will pick up in size, and block more vision of the enemy but just like that your own too. If they clash against one another, the fire will get weaker, getting smaller in size, but continuing. The chakra would burn more from the oxygen,but since you are wasting it faster, it will be a lot weaker than before. Smell wouldn't be much different, you can't see sth too great, you could hear, the fire being amplified and the wind flow. You know how you blow in a flame? This sound will be of aid. Another one is the limiting view you could get from that certain situation. And the look how the fire will be a lot brighter. If wind and fire was to clash, wouldn't you think the direction of the heat be manipulated slightly, even if it is overpowered? As well as the light and flares of the fire? This can help you find out the direction of the wind blast and allow for mobility. If a fireball is clashing with a wind sphere, the sphere is sent straight and hits it directly, the fireballs heat and flares would momentarily be pushed directly back, nothing to harm you, it just happens logically. So you can easily find out the sphere had a straight trajectory and can deduce the opponent will probably be straight ahead of you. This can be a neat way of sensing everything, I wouldn't pull it out a lot, but against fast opponents or stealthy people, it can help you have a excuse of possible mobility. Also, imagine dust clashing with fire? You can probably hear the cracking and bounce of dust and debris being burned from the flames, small sparks and ash linger around the air, can take advantage for hiding or adding to attack. Other then that, good job.
Fire-Earth
Fire and Earth have not a noticeable relation against one another, rule of thumb is that they are both equal, A fire = A Earth. But where these 2 elements shine is combos. The unique forms of earth, mud being one of them can be used perfectly well with fire. Using fire in conjunction with this mud, you can create some kind of pseudo-Lava. It will be molted earth, hot enough to burn the flesh to the bone, and fairly well block the view or movements. Another one is if you use solid earth, along with fire, you can create a similar fashion to a meteor. The moment this rock will shatter, the fire will spread burning. It would though, be deceived because of the unusual glow which earth can make if you amplify it with fire. The smell would certainly be different from normal. When normal earth or mineral burns, the different kinds of odors released could trigger something. The sight would be as I said, very distinctive no matter how you look at it, it will glow in a red color, and by the looks it will look more liquidy. You know?
Fire - Lightning
Lightning and fire are arguably the 2 strongest elements because of their raw destructive power. But they never happen to crash together considering both of them are energy based, they will phase through one another. But let us take it in other ways. We knows fire covers a huge more vision area than lightning, while lightning might move in either projectiles or bolts. So, when you clash together a very large fire stream against a bolted lightning technique, the person which used the bolt of lightning will lose the enemy from their sight, the attack might not match entirely. The sounds will continue respectively, maybe eaten up a little from the rough continuing noises of fire. And the scent won't change much, as they don't interact.
Water - Wind
Once water and wind clash together negating, we could say there will be large amounts of water still present in the battlefield. But due to the force, they hit one another, they would naturally have the water explode in tiny droplets, falling mostly everywhere in the battlefield, maybe a lot less towards the location where the wind hit it. The water will also have a large amount of tribulation, so high amounts of water might be colored white, due to the pressure and intensity of the attack, maybe even steam in rare cases. Though, the water would be good enough. Naturally in those occasions, the enemy would squint, or cover his eyes for the water not to momentarily blind him. Another thing which might happen is the battlefield getting wet, if that were in glass we would observe slippery, and a high lack of dust or small sand particles, as they now are more mud like.
Water - Lightning
Once lightning and water collide in most occasions the lightning would simply move through the water, using it as a conductor, rather than just destroying it. Might be perfect if the enemy is using a stream based attack, and you could kill him, but when it is a projectile one, best used would be raw, powerful and destructive lighting, generally found in compressed forms like projectiles, or attacks connected to the body, tangible ones like the chidori spear. Once those collide, generally the lightning and the high amounts of heat, would evaporate amounts of water, not all of it of course. The rest would simply fall in small particles, like rain or larger chunks as well. The steam along with the other rain drops prove themselves amazing by blocking sight, or other senses. There will surely be sizzling sounds, as well as lightning discharge sounds because of the shortcut created into water. Another positive thing is that the small sand grains become unable to be used, and the mist could cover movements.
Water - Earth
Water and Earth generally comes with the win of earth in most occasions. Using the earth's ability to not let water move through along with it's sturdiness which rivals water, there is no real discussion who might win, but if they crash and negate many things would be visible. Unlike before, where water clashed non tangible elements generally, earth will now, along with water break. The earth chunks would not be in the size of grains, but medium sized rocks, which might prove themselves harmful if they hit too hard. Another plausible thing would be, that since the water is hitting a chance enforced earth, they might even create slight appearances of mud, along with the rocks and normal water rain. The sound of the rain drops, the heavier drops of rocks and debris, along with the turbulance that the water has, would not only hinder the sight, but also the hearing.
Wind - Earth
When wind and earth clash together, most of the time wind comes superior. In cases when they negate one another, the strong forces of wind, will most certainly shatter most very strong and sturdy earth constructs, which would send flying a lot of debris, and depending on the strength of both techniques, these chucks can be enough to send someone K.O, or they could be small enough to render vision badly. Also, depending on what direction the wind was going, the earth will mostly go towards that, with a slight omnidirectional disperse. If it was the forms of mud, the mud will most likely do the same, which is fly in sticky chunks in many locations all around the present location where it was on.
Wind - Lightning
There is not a lot I could say here specifically, because in many cases, lightning and wind simply causes the disperse of lightning, but think about it. Solid or at least, shaped lightning constructs will force the wind to break it down first, so there will be thousands of lightning sparks, as the lightning goes from stable, to unstable, and logically thinking, as the lightning goes to unstable there will be a lot of sound, and very powerful sparks of light.
I don't think I forgot anything. Any Questions?!

Alright alright alright, here we begin. POST, All the weapon techniques which you know of, no matter of rank.
I will be evaluating if right or not, show me your knowledge of being able to differentiate.
