walks to the training grounds where he was assigned his new student - a fellow Uchiha. Hidden behind his mask, he walked with haste, arriving only a few seconds late. Meeting the student, Obito uttered with a very threatening tone, "So, you wish to uncover the secrets of the Uchiha? I must warn you, it will be a long and grueling road. If you don't have the resolve for it, I suggest turning back now, scum."
Itachi stands up and gives a firm serious look at his fellow Uchiha and superior. He tenses his muscles slightly, both eager and frightened, for what is next to come. "I have tirelessly waited for this opportunity. I will not, I can not, back down. I have prepared myself and I will come out stronger than before"
Obito's surprised facial expression was hidden behind his mask; to think, even after his warning, the student persisted on the training. "Your choice... So, what do you know about the Sharingan? Tell me everything you know about the Sharingan's abilities - everything and anything you know about!"
Itachi nods slightly and eases his tense muscles. He then takes in a breath and begins. "Of course. The Sharingan is a unique dojutsu Kekkei Genkai that is unique to the Uchiha clan members. The Sharingan is unique in that it provides incredible abilities to the user, varying depending on the stage of the Sharingan the user has. The Sharingan, naturally, has small chakra depletions for the users of the clan. In the case of Non-Uchiha users of the Sharingan, like the famed Copy Ninja Kakashi Hatake, the chakra depletion is much more intense. In addition, Non-Uchiha members cannot deactivate their taken Sharingans, which forces them to cover it up or close their eyes in order to keep steady control of their Chakra levels. This is different than the Hyuuga clan's Dojutsu, where a Non-Hyuuga can activate or deactivate their taken Byakugan at any time.
Unlike another Dojutsu, the Byakugan of the Hyuuga Clan, the Sharingan is not bestowed on the individual at birth. In order to utilize the Sharingan, one must have it activated. Only after it is activated, may the individual use the blessed powers of the Sharingan. The way that the Sharingan is activated, is that the individual must go through an incredibly emotional or life-or-death experience that activates special chakra in the brain which in turn provides the necessary requirements for one to have their Sharingan activated, generally with only 1 tomoe in each eye, though this may vary depending on the situation. Once then, the user can use the Sharingan as they please, and can train it into further stages.
There are three stages to a Sharingan. When a user reaches a new stage of the Sharingan, it remains that way. Therefore, if a user reaches stage 2 of their Sharingan, they will always utilize the second stage of the Sharingan. This is due to the fact that the previous abilities of the Sharingan are already given in the more advanced stages.
1 Tomoe - At this stage, the user's Sharingan is at it's weakest stage, which is still powerful in it of itself. It allows the user to perceive track speeds and motions at a higher rate than standard eyes and see chakra.
2 Tomoe - At this stage, the user's Sharingan now gains an additional abilities. It allows the user to perceive track speeds and motions at an even higher rate than before, which gives the user slight predictive abilities as they can see other shinobis perform handseals and expect their next move. In addition, the user can now mimic minor movements of his/her opponent, effectively allowing the user to memorize techniques and utilizing the techniques themselves, so long as the ability is within the capabilities of the user. Finally, the user can now additionally see through basic level genjutsus.
3 Tomoe - At this stage, the user's Sharingan now gains an additional abilities. It allows the user to perceive track speeds and motions at, yet again, an even higher rate than before, which gives the user incredible predictive abilities. Their newfound abilities allow the user to analyze, copy, and predict the actions and abilities of their opponents. It essentially makes the user see things in slow motion. Additionally, the user can now see through even higher levels of genjutsus. Finally, at this stage, the user has the ability to hypnotize a target, so long as the user is not incredibly strong.
And that, is everything I know of the Sharingan.
Itachi then looks firm back at the man in the mask, again tensing his muscles for what is yet to come.
Impressed, Obito followed up with yet another question, "Hm... so, let's narrow it down a bit; explain what you know about Sharingan at its first level, 1T, then we shall continue fromt here."
Itachi hears his request and responds "Right, the Sharingan with 1 tomoe is at it first and weakest stage. Only those who go through extremely significant event, such as emotional trauma or a life-or-death situation. The stage makes the user able to view the chakra of their surroundings and opponents. It allows for the user to perceive motions with slightly better perception. This stage does not have the more powerful perceptional capabilities of the further stages, nor the ability to memorize and copy techniques, nor the ability to cast genjutsu with it.
That is what I know of the 1 tomoe Sharingan."
Itachi then stands, slightly nervous, hoping his response would suffice.
Grabbing a ninja scroll from his ninja pouch, Obito suddenly throws it to the student as it is unrolled in air. "Here, Itatchi is it? Read up on the abilities of the Sharingan, and if you have any further questions, feel free to ask them now... if not, then we'll get on with the show."
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A-Rank
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30 (-10 per turn to keep active)
Damage: N/A
Description:
One of the Three Great Dōjutsu (San Daidōjutsu), the Sharingan is the kekkei genkai of the Uchiha clan. Unlike the other Dōjutsu, not all members of the Uchiha Clan possess the Sharingan. This great Dōjutsu seems to awaken only on exceptional Uchiha members and only in times of great stress. Once awaken, the pupil turns red and a single tomoe (巴) seal appears around the center pupil. As the user masters and evolves their eyes, the tomoe (巴) seals increase, topping 3 per eye. The main ability of the Sharingan, like any other Dōjutsu, is to enable the user to see the flow of chakra. This ability is further improved as the Sharingan gives color to chakra, enabling the user to differentiate chakras from different people or from different sources. Although the user can see chakra through matter, he cannot see beyond dense matter or in long distances. Coupled with the ability to see chakra, Sharingan users gain acess to an incredible clarity of perception that enables them to read insanely fast movements or minor details, enabling them the ability to foresee in an easier way, traps, incoming attacks, etc. This clarity of perception is so great that a Sharingan user can sometimes start performing a counter to an attack that is still being performed, enabling the counter to be launched only a split a second after the attack. This clarity of perception leaves Sharingan users able to track high speed movement easily as well as to read through handseals. This last ability enables them to learn techniques much faster and sometimes copy them directly from the enemy, as long as the user has the necessary chakra affinities and requirements to perform it. Finally, the Sharingan is often linked to Genjutsu and mind-manipulating illusions, mostly because the user can, mostly through Eye Contact, directly and precisely use his chakra to manipulate the enemy's chakra flow. In return, the users clarity of perception gives him the ability to more easily decipher visual illusions cast upon him and see past them. The Sharingan has a great cost to the user though. The chakra consumption disables its use for long periods of time and, even when the user grows stronger, it's still hard to keep it active for long periods of time.
Note: The user, if he hasn't gained full mastery over his Sharingan, will need to spend a move to activate it, although as long as he has chakra and enough stamina he'll be able to keep it active until the end of the match. If the user is Sannin Rank or above and has gained his 3 Tomoe Sharingan and held it for one month, he becomes able to passively activate it, meaning he'll no longer spend a move of his 3 per turn.
Note: To avoid direct Eye Contact and be able to focus only on the body movement below the chin, the opponent needs to have mastered Taijutsu to possess the necessary skill.
Note: Predicting the nature of a technique or what it exactly is requires the user to either know the technique or that its a cannon technique.
Note: Danzo and Kakashi bios activate the Sharingan by removing the covers in their respective eyes and suffer a +10 chakra consumption per turn penalty
Note: The user is bound by the abilities and limits of the stage of sharingan he possesses, stated in the rules of the KG.
Abilities:
A sharingan wielder has two 'modes': Normal vision, like any other shinobi, and Chakra vision. Chakra vision is easily compareable with real life Infrared vision, but instead of seeing red and orange, you see blue from the chakra. The three main abilities are stated below.
Chakra Perception:
The wielder of a regular sharingan is able to 'see' chakra once the 1st tomoe is activated. The chakra can be seen through the chakra system, in the air, as a solid form, as it is channeled through a medium, etc. It can be seen as long as there are no solid hindrance blocking the way. You are able to look to your own chakra system to confirm that you are under an illusion by analyzing the disturbed chakra system, but keep in mind, it is considered meta gaming to look at your chakra system without the proper reasoning and explanation. Along with chakra perception, an Uchiha with the 1st tomoe is able to notice the difference in elemental chakra. The color they see remains the same, however, a shinobi familiarized with the basic five should know the properties of a particular element. This is done by examining how it flows; wind chakra to an Uchiha will look relatively thin as opposed to regular chakra, while water chakra would have a smoother flow. Of course the ability to do so is developed through further training and advancement in Sharingan.
Genjutsu:
The 1T Sharingan is able to pierce through D-rank and below illusions. This trait is rather tricky. It is only able to actually "pierce" and break through D-rank illusions as long as they are visual based. This is done by visually seeing the distortions and chakra in a certain area and using the sharingan's ability to perceive chakra to distinguish between reality and illusion. Because it only works for visual-based illusions, techniques like Crushing snakes constrict that serves to immobilize the target would be unaffected by an attempt to pierce through the illusion.
Tracking:
The 1T Sharingan gives the user 1.5x tracking speeds, in regards to the RP of course. The 1T is not as powerful, but nevertheless it grants some form of enhanced tracking. The tracking ability pertains to the ability to react to faster speeds and actions. This also includes formulating an attack, deciding on a quick counter, etc. The tracking ability of the Sharingan basically allows a person to see a projectile, or a moving object like a moving fist slowed down. This means that despite being able to track the enemy, if they get too close, you have a smaller gap of time to defend accordingly. Your tracking abilities, and along with general Sharingan abilities are enhanced slowly over time as you train and grow.
"Hm, then let's proceed to the fun part... Now, you're free to fight back, but it would ultimately be futile. Gyahahahah!" As he laughed, a ball of pure and rotating chakra appears above his left hand. With great speed, Obito dashes towards the student and immediately strikes his stomach area with the Rasengan, which should be powerful enough to break some ribs, if left undefended of course. "You are no match for me, I suggest turning back before it's too late, kid!"
(Rasengan) - Spiral Sphere
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: Rasengan was a Ninjutsu technique developed over the span of three years by the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato. The technique was taught to his sensei, Jiraiya, who then passed it on to Minato's young son, Naruto, years later. The technique is unlike many other jutsu in that it does not require any hand seals. It just relied on the ninja's ability to mold chakra. The ninja concentrates a contained, fast, rotating sphere of chakra in the palm of their hand, which can create a destructive impact.
Itachi tries to avoid, but realizes it's pointless. Even if he were able to dodge, he couldn't react fast enough. Itachi takes the rasengan directly in his stomach, and trying to still show some strength, he grips with one hand onto the masked man's arm as the strike is happening, holding the man's arm on Itachi's stomach. With his other hand, Itachi takes out a kunai and tries to strike the man in the stomach as well. While yelling in pain from the rasengan being blasted into him at the same time, he screams out. "GAH! I.... AGH! *Coughs blood* Won't give up! AHH!"
As the Rasengan has made contact, Obito notices the student taking out a bladed weapon. "You think you can win with such a weak weapon?" He questioned, with the obvious intent of belittling the student. As the student attempts to strike Obito, a layer of earth quickly emerges from Obito's body; it intercepts and defends him from the kunai, with the cost of the Rasengan's deactivation of course. This armor was a unique one. In the shin area of his left leg, slightly above the foot, a one foot spike protrudes made completely of earth. It was sharp and powerful, and with the same motion, Obito strikes Itatchi's right leg with it soon after, retracting it. The attack left massive damage to his shins and bones; it did not protrude through the opponents shins, but it was strong enough to force the student to rely on one leg. Obito falls back a few meters and says, "You're far too weak, Itatachi. You have neither the resolve nor the hate to progress further." As he spoke, Obito throws a single kunai, cutting the student's cheeks leaving a slight cut.
(Doton: Koka no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Hardening Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offense/Defence/Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 40 (-15 per turn)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user releases a burst of earth chakra from all over his body. As he does this, a multitude of rock seemingly grows from his skin, forming a large, dense armour or rock much bigger and bulkier than the users original size. The armour can be manipulated and used to create extendable weapons to strike a target with like rudimentary swords or hammers. The downside is that the user cannot mold techniques from other elements a part from earth while sustaining the armor. The armor can be manifested in only specific parts of the body if the user so chooses.
[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Itachi falls to the floor, grabbing his shin in pain and screaming out in agony, he then feels a sharp cut in his cheek he almost completely doesn't feel due to the huge pain in his legs and stomach. Hearing the man's claim of Itachi's progress, he gets extremely angry. He looks at the man and shouts with pride.[/FONT] "You have... ugh... no right to say that... I have the Will... of Fire in me... Gah! *Coughs blood* Like I said... before *Heavy panting* I won't give up! AHH!" [FONT=Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Itachi grabs the kunai that struck him and throws it at the man. At the same time he throws it, Itachi lifts himself with his one good leg as a means to jump straight towards the man. Itachi follows the same path as the kunai and as he is jumping he forms a fist in his hands. He then takes throws a punch in the area around the man expecting the man to dodge the and move to that area so that Itachi will land a hit.[/FONT]
As the kunai is thrown, Obito intercepts with his own kunai. This man, he had courage to say the least; at his state and still trying to attack him. It was inevitable. As he attempted to close the gap, Obito performs a simple kicking motion to release a small flame from his leg aimed towards the man's arms. Although lacking in size, it was fairly powerful and resulted in burning to Itatchi's left arm. "Are you sure you're an Uchiha?"
( Katon no Jutsu ) - Fire Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will release a small but powerful flame of fire at their opponent from either their limbs (through movement) or exhaling it. It can produce fire balls or fire streams or simply aid in taijutsu.
[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Itachi screams in pain from the burn caused by the technique. He then hears the man retort how Itachi isn't even an Uchiha. This claim, provokes him to such an extent he begins to yell in fury. He thinks to himself how this man would belittle him, making him think he is not worthy of the Uchiha Clan's title. He can not accept it. He can not forgive it. And with that, Itachi gains the resolve to absolutely destroy this man. He looks angrily at the man, with an intent to mercilessly beat him for his actions.[/FONT] "I... I am an Uchiha!"
He attempts to get up, but then falls down from the sheer pain and damage he accumulated from this fight.
As the man foolishly attempted to stand once more, his eyes gleaned of blood red. A Sharingan manifested, and he was now a worthy Uchiha. "Good, now begone."
