Waiting for my shishou, a sudden burst of sand engulfs the entire premises of the training grounds. The storm of sand blocks my vision as the sand slowly disintegrates, as a man stood meters away from me. His presence alone was powerful as his Shishou appears, grinning as always.
Sand is a special elemental ninjutsu that cannot be made or formed by chakra. However, the user can unite his chakra with pre-existing sand on the ground and gather more sand by breaking down the earth. Due to this matter, Sand is strong against Earth. Sand, however is weak against water since the sand turns to mud once water make contact with it. It makes the sand weak and slow. It is also weak against lightning displayed when Sasuke's chidori-infested sword was able to pierce through Gaara's shield of sand. The most well known users to use this special elemental ninjutsu was Gaara, 3rd Kazekage, 4th Kazekage, and the Ichibi.
