Description: Allows the user to summon and vanish members of the Coco Macaque Clan.These are Cubozoan Larvae that don't mature into polyp or medusa, retaining their larvae shape through their life cycle. These larvae are all linked together by chakra, so much so that, by charging chakra through one will be felt by the others. The user of this technique can thus summon a larvae on him/herself, allowing the user to charge chakra through the Coco Macaque that will be felt by anyone else with access to a different Coco Macaque. Through a common understanding, the different intensities of the chakra information or frequency of information allows messages to be sent through any distance.
This made the Coco Macaque not very intelligent, since they aren't fully capable of thought, and rumor has it that the entire Coco Macaque Clan was created as a slave caste by previous Barons. They behave more like tools rather than actual summons, despite being summoned as one. They possess no nematocysts in their skin, which would leave them defenseless. To counter it, each Coco Macaque as the kanji for "Box", an inherited sealing storage which can be accessed manually by charging chakra through one of the Coco Macaque, unsealing the "Box" key in any Coco Macaque, or by having someone foreign to the Cubozoa Contract gain physical contact with a Coco Macaque, where the foreign chakra will activate the seal on that individual.
The sealing is pretty similar to any of Ten Ten's techniques, summoning small spears made of dried nematocysts, with scalpel-tip, that can spill cubozoan venom. These act as tiny needles, and each unsealing summons 1 spear, no bigger than 2 cm, that pierces the target in close contact (does not shoot off by itself). Each is considered E rank, though it costs no chakra. It's, in essence, an artificial nematocyst, and, stand alone, produces little damage. The seal itself is good for one spear each, unable to open to unseal another spear.
Main Usage: The way the user summons these Coco Macaque is by drawing blood, performing 2 handseals, and clapping the hands together, spitting a swarm of these small larvae that can spread around through water, the air or the underground. They will cover an area of around 15 meters radius. The Coco Macaque will then stay beneath the surface of any inanimate passive substance, like tree trunks or the ground itself. For 4 turns, each Coco Macaque will process chakra and detect chakra, thus, when in close contact with foreign chakra, they will rise the spear. After the 4 turns, they will simply dry up and die, even in humid surfaces, never, at any point, reverse summoning themselves, because they don't have the autonomy to do so, creating dry shells of larva with the "Box" inscription, beneath the surface of the terrain.
Supplementary Usage: The user is able to use these Coco Macaque as actual Ninjutsu, by summoning just a few individuals. They require no blood, and only 1 handseal. This allows one to summon a small larvae on their body, or in the body of any Box or fellow summoner. Each Coco costs 5 chakra, the same as an E rank technique, and each usage can summon up to 4 Coco Macaque at once, counting as 1 jutsu as a whole. These Coco Macaque stay alive indefinitely, yet, while having the seal, do not have the ability to summon needles, they serve purely as messengers between Boxes and Humans.
*The main ability transfers just a signal, a small fluctuation, up to any range. It is neither able to break someone from a genjutsu or block an attack like Minato's technique. It's like morse code. It's purpose is the same as morse code, being a form of primitive communication.*
*Main usage is a Summoning Technique that costs 20 chakra, happens short range and spreads out to mid range. Can only be used once per battle. Supplementary usage is a Ninjutsu Technique that cost 5 chakra per larvae up to 4, happens up to long range directly on members of the Cubozoa Contract, as long as a line of sight exist between the user and the target. Can be used 4 times per battle*
*Each artificial needle infuses a tiny bit of venom, like a tiny needle burning. The more needles come in contact with a target, the more the pain increases. Lethal injection requires 60 needles to actually pierce the skin, though it has excruciating pain levels above just 1/4 of that. Needles can surgically pierce most clothing and armor materials, except they only have 2 cms, making them useless if triggered by a boot, or a chest armor, for example. Each Coco Macaque unseals only 1 spear, drying off and falling harmless to the floor afterwards. Once dead they do not transmit chakra.
