So tell me what you know about steel release


Steel Release is an Advanced Elemental release hailing from the land of Earth. Though in the manga/anime the inherent natures that make it up aren't actually known. it is believed that earth release and fire release make up the base elements, with earth being the source of the steel and fire being the manipulating element to mould and create its shape.

It is strong against water style and weak to lightning release due to its conductive nature.

Excellent! Also, steel has an obsidian color.

Alright, so for training I'll explain the jutsu and I just want you to analyze them and ask any questions.

(Kōton no Jutsu) Steel Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: Allows the user to, through the use of hand gestures, produce small objects, pillars, weapons, etc, made of black steel, from their body or from the earth. The constructs are as hard as a normal kunai and swords and can be thrown at a target physically.

So this technique basically allow you to create structures out of steel release. The best part about this technique is that the only limit to this technique is your imagination, but don't go crazy lol.

(Kōton: Toami) Steel Release: Fish Net
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After 1 handseal (Bird), the user is able to produce a black steel net from his/her hands, which can be thrown towards the opponent to pin him to the ground.

You create a net made out of steel that can be used to capture targets or pin them down.

Both straight forward, the first is simply a generic application and as stated your only restriction for it is your creativity, the second one quite a cool technique if used appropriately, more of a surprise technique and use it to catch opponents off guard and distract them enough to follow up with another more powerful technique or a supplementary technique to enhance the nets restrictive capabilities such as lightning to apply additional status effect.

At current I don't believe there is any questions I need to ask regarding the following two techniques :)

(Kōton: Suchīrushīrudo) Steel Release: Steel Shield
Type: Defensive/Supplementary/Offensive
Rank: C
Range: Short
Chakra: 15
Damage: 30
Description: After performing the Bird → Horse handseals, the user will make their Kōton chakra form a shield made of a black steel that sticks to the user's forearm (either left or right forearm depends on the user). The shield is tall enough to hide from the user's eyes to his/her hip and it is hard enough to block all non chakra-infused ninja tools. the shield has the ability to block all regular swords but it can't break them. The is also strong enough to block all C-Ranked and weaker normal taijutsu techniques. The edges of the shield are very thin and sharp and the user is able to throw it as a giant shuriken to cut through the targets even through the trunks of large trees.
Note: Courtesy of Beifong

A pretty useful technique that can be used defensively or offensively. It is important to note that this shield does not counter the user's entire body, but at least it can deflect all free form attacks.

(Kōton: Kase) Steel Release: Shackles
Rank: C
Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user does 2 handseals (Bird+Ram) focusing chakra beneath the opponent, shaping the ground into several (up to 5) shackles that shoot up to grab the enemy. The shackles are linked to chains that remain connected to the ground. Once they grab the opponent, the user can clap his hands, forcefully pulling the shackles and chains to the ground, effectively pinning the opponent to the ground, restrained by the steel chains.

A pretty nice that can be hard to avoid at times because of its range. The user basically summons chains directly underneath the opponent meaning that there is not a far distance they have to travel. The technique say it does 30 damage so you can increase the grip they have on the opponent in order to harm them or you could just pin them to the ground with no harm done.

(Kōton: Tama Ishuu) Steel Release: Bullet Swarm
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: After 2 handseals (Bird+Tiger), the user is able to shot out up to a dozen metal bullets from his/her body. They move as fast as arrows and can be shot in a radial manner or a focused manner, from any part of the body the user intends to.

A pretty nice technique because the bullets are formed directly from your body. Can be used to hit multiple targets from multiple directions. Another nice part is that the bullets can be fired from any location on the user body which makes it perfect for stealth attacks. Also, not that it says "up to a dozen" sou you can easily release one bullet in a covert manner.

Another nice part is that the bullets can be fired from any location on the user body which makes it perfect for stealth attacks. Also, not that it says "up to a dozen" sou you can easily release one bullet in a covert manner.


Technique one the steel shield: Easy enough to understand, user creates it from their body and attached to their forearm, and an effective measure to counter a range of techniques, mainly physical based techniques and you can use the nature of the shield to help create a platform in which you rebound a taijutsu technique and use the momentum of the opponent against them. It is also capable of defending against low level elemental ninjutsu following the S/W of the steel release element.

Technique number 2 the shackles: Again nice and simple, the appliance may vary depending how you wish to proceed, you could use it to simply restrain an opponent or by using more force to deal the additional damage to help sustain some form of physical damage and effect for example, you could describe the way you forcefully slam an opponent down into the ground, the resulting action leads to winding and knocking the breath out of the opponent.

Technique number 3 the Bullets: depends how you wish to apply it, as stated good for stealth, release a single powerful bullet aimed at their heads to knock them out, or attack multiple targets with multiple balls of steel. Being released from any part of the body allows for great diversity in application of the technique, can release from single points or multiple points and even deliver an omnidirectional attack to strike multiple opponents trying to surround you or using the S/W to attack with precision various techniques that attempt to surround you or bind you and you can aim them to strike a wide scale technique by distributing the steel balls over a ranged area.

So, I don't require anything specific from your replies other than a sorta of discussion-esque response. Tell me your thoughts on the jutsu, how you might use it, why might not use it and ask me any questions that come to mind.

You can answer these as you have for Sasori, but I'm not too picky. I'll prompt you for more info if I feel you are missing something, or if I've not explained myself properly with the jutsu.




(Kōton: Kasui Sanran) Steel Release: Spike Spawn
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: After 1 handseal (Horse), the user is able to make a great number of black steel spikes rise up from a point in the ground within range. These spikes are very sharp and may be as big long as 2 meters.

Needs some work on the English of this technique's description, but I feel it conveys the use well enough.

(Kōton: Jairu Hausu Rokku) Steel Release: Jail House Rock
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After 3 handseals (Boar+Horse+Tiger), the user will use his chakra to forcefully make a large collection of metal rods to rise from the ground within range. The rods will form a prison around the target, connecting to each other beneath the ground. As soon as all the pillars have risen, which is very fast, their extremities spawn more pillars as well as their sides. As the pillars multiply, they connect to each other, forming an almost perfect prison cell, closed on all sides.

Most steel jutsu are similar to earth jutsu and mirror the same effects. This jutsu is a stronger version of "(Doton: Ganchūrō no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Rock Pillar Prison Technique" and creates a more traditional prison-style bars around your target(s).

Technique number 1: pretty much a stronger version to the earth spears and it would be good for trying to immobilise and opponents movements or if they try and make advancement towards you, then you could create it as a deterent against them. I think its a pretty handy and narly technique given the useage within the right situation.

Technique number 2: as stated an even better version of its base earth counterpart, trapping an opponent, it is also harder to break free from. Good for stalling an opponent to set up another attack or evasive manouver to gain distance. Not sure i could offer much more on the technique as its pretty basic and simplistic in nature.

I'm really sorry, things got away from me and I'm in the process of resigning... though I guess it does depend on my activity over these next few days I guess? So until then, I'll try to push through some of this training for you. Sorry again.

(Kōton: Uroku Hei) Steel Release: Scaled Wall
Rank: B
Type: Deffense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After 1 handseal (Bird), the user is able to rise a large wall of plated black steel to protect from incoming attacks.


Just your typical defensive wall, utilising your Black Steel in a plated formation. However, what might be some faults of using a defensive wall in combat? How might you get around any faults you can think of or how might you opponent take advantage of them?



(Kōton: Mukankaku no Yoroi) - Steel Release: Impervious Armour
Rank: B
Type: Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: This Technique allows the user to turn part their body into black steel, making that part of their body invulnerable to most weapons and taijutsu attacks. But due to its metal properties it leaves the user vulnerable to lightning based techniques.
Note: Can only render Taijutsu Techniques A rank and below useless.


This was one of the original 'canon' techs as it was the one we saw Hiruko use in one of the Movies... can't recall which one it was though. Basically turns the specific part of your body into black steel, for defensive purposes mainly. You'd have to be creative to find the combo's for this one, though I'm sure they exist
Since Taijutsu it weak to elemental releases, this can defend against A-rank and lower taijutsu, as this tech is B-ranked.
