Taijutsu with Aki/Kiri. [TGOF]

[The Mockingjay]

Welcome to Iwa btw! I'm sure you'll be a great addition to the family! xD

And haha! Balance is important because if you fall over in a fight, you're pretty much dead. xD It leaves you open to all attacks as falling leaves you unable to make quick movements or perform most techniques. It also leaves your whole body open as you're unable to cover yourself.

 

[Adachi]

Thanks, Songbird. ^_^

Perfect, and you know how to recover already, well done. It does indeed make you very vulnerable.

Rank: D
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points:10
Description: This technique is a good example of how even simple taijutsu can become a pre-eminently destructive, lethal technique. The attack is a simple rear spinning low kick, but a strong enough user can send a large adult flying as if they weighed nothing. The goal is to throw the enemy off balance, and deal damage to the lower half of their body.

Alright, now, begin running at my clone for good momentum and power.
When you get in range of him, aim a kick towards the top section of his body (explain the reasoning behind this), then directly afterwards, kick with your other foot towards his rib cage (explain the impact this has), and proceed to finish him off with several more kicks of your choice.

 

[The Mockingjay]

After planting my feet and pushing off of the ground strongly through my slightly bent knees I begin to run, not looking for unrivaled speed in this motion, but more looking toward the power of the stride. As I reach the close proximity of your clone I spring my right leg up and aim a kick at his upper body (aimed here because of the positioning of most of the bodies vitals as well as it being the widest and easiest place to get a solid connection with on an opponents body, it is also if aimed correctly the spot in which it would be possible to wind an opponent making breath very hard to come by between my attacks and limiting movement.) I then, straight after releasing the first kick bring my other (left) leg around aimed for his chest. I aim for the chest as it is the protection in front of the most vital organs in the body, the lungs and the heart. A strong impact on the chest can break ribs, possibly leading to the puncture of said organs. Or can just lead to winding the opponent as I stated before. The chest being a large flat area of the body also leads it to be one of the most easily targeted parts of a body, because of this wide area it makes a solid connection strong and able to force the recipient back and send him off balance as well as inflicting damage, setting up a follow up attack with little way to avoid.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect, however, the first move is actually more of a feint.
In a normal situation, if you first aimed towards your opponent's higher area, then he would no doubt block or try to dodge it, so it's important that you actually don't use your dominant leg first in this situation, but use it second, to save most of your body weight and power in your actual move, which is the second kick towards the ribs.
However, good job on targeting the vulnerable spots, a good strike can always lead to an instant death.

(Konoha Senpū) - Leaf Hurricane
Rank: D
Type: Attack
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points: 10
Description: A taijutsu where one launches a succession of high kicks and low kicks. Firstly, the opponent's evasion margin is restrained upon seeing the high kick, thus augmenting the chances for the low kick to hit the mark connecting to the rib cage area. So originally the high kick is little more than a feint.

For this next move, take advantage of gravity by first allowing your body to be propelled backwards.
Then, with a surge of chakra, rise back up with your dominant leg and take advantage of the momentum by delivering a hard kick to my clone, sending him into the air. Single kick, single leg.

 

[The Mockingjay]

As i allow my body to fall backwards with the pull of gravity overcoming me, I quickly release a surge of chakra and use this as a sort of spring which gives me enough momentum to deliver a powerful kick under your clones chin. The impact of the kick as well as the rising power from my spring are enough to send your clone into the air with my follow through.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect. You basically shift all your body weight forward, much like...well, a ball on a string, I guess.

(Konoha Shōfū) – Leaf Rising Wind
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 20
Description: This technique uses the entire body as a spring, by amassing power through taking a posture where the back of the body falls down. With this powerful taijutsu, the user kicks just above the head. Because the power of the kick from the ground is instantly converted into a blow, the enemy hit with this attack will be launched high into the sky.

Alright, instead of knocking my clone up into the air now, concentrate on the ground instead. Strike him down the the palm of your hand so that he crashes into the earth beneath him.

 

[The Mockingjay]

Taking a quick dash toward my opponent I step up on my left foot and spring myself up into the air slightly just to give myself height on my opponent and bringing extra force into my next attack. Using the extra power I get from the gravity pulling my body down to the ground I drive my palm into the top/ back of my opponents skull from above, following through as my body lowers to the ground. As my feet hit the ground I begin to drop my body, bending down through my knees whilst still driving my palm through his skull. Through the force of this hit my opponent falls forwards onto his face which hits the ground, my palm still driving downward causes a sort of sandwich with his head in the middle.

 

[Adachi]

Ah, excellent emphasis on Newton's Third Law...and you picked the perfect spot to strike too!

Description: The user strikes their opponent with a downwards thrust striking them to the floor.

Now, something like the techniques earlier, strike not with your palm but with your first in an angle so that you hit their abdomen, sending them into the air. O_O

 

[The Mockingjay]

As I take a long step toward my opponent I clench my fist and hold it at my side. Pulling my body forward with my front leg I drag my back foot along the floor and bend my knee as it joins my body in front of my opponent, this bend of my knee puts me at the perfect height to drive my fist into my opponents abdomen and follow through driving his body upwards and into the air. Pushing through with my knee and well as my arm I generate enough power and kinetic push force to send my opponent high into the sky.

 

[Adachi]

Excellent. Remember your target is more easier to see in the air, and it also makes him more vulnerable as a result.

Now, make that palm again, but instead of striking him downwards, aim for my clone's chest.
Sort of like the force, you know. xD

 

[The Mockingjay]

As I bring my arm back a charge chakra at my elbow, then with driving force I drill my palm into your clones chest and release a small burst of chakra from my palm with the strike. The force of the strike and the concentrated burst of chakra forces your opponent backwards.

Lucario used Force Palm!

Now, for this next one, begin with a running start (remember, momentum) and then strike my clone with your shoulder, almost like a body slam...

 

[The Mockingjay]

I plant my feet firmly on the ground beneath me and dig my right toe into the dirt positioned next to but slightly behind my left leg. I then from this position push off through my right foot, ankle and knee springing myself into a sprint. As I gather momentum I brace myself for impact and run more or less straight into your clone, only adjusting my position slightly at the end of my move in order to strike him with my shoulder as opposed to just running into him and risking bashing heads or other self-inflicted wounds.

 

[Adachi]

Ah, excellent. Turning the shoulder in a 45 degree angle works pretty well.

Alright, so there are also downsides to this.
What happens if you miss this move?

 

[The Mockingjay]

Well your momentum would carry you further and your expectations of connecting would make it hard for you to stop suddenly leaving you vulnerable. Also, one is bound to push forward at the last minute to add extra force to the attack therefore if you missed you'd be throwing yourself off balance

 

[Adachi]

Excellent.

Now, like many of those old cartoons, proceed to dash up to my clone, and then smash them in the face with your knee.

 

[The Mockingjay]

Running at your clone as before I make sure the last grounded step I take is on my right leg, I then bring my opponent up to my opponents knee and use this to kick off of and use as a step as well as knocking him slightly of balance in the process.
Then, pushing off my opponents knee with my left leg I bring my right knee into my body timing it so that as my knee reaches near my chest it connects with the bridge of my opponents nose sending him back flying and driving his nose into his skull.

 

[Adachi]

xd You gotta repeat it multiple times for the full effect.

Now, for this next jutsu, throw my clone up into the air in any way possible, then follow up by grabbing his ankles while in midair and wrapping your legs around his waist. Then, turn around in the air and slam his head first into the ground. Describe the impact it has on the ground and his head. O_O

 

[The Mockingjay]

I have a Sakura bio... this will be easy!!! Sakura grabs your clone and merely throws him into the air like he was a feather (bad example I know... feathers are hard to throw.) I then jump into the air after my opponent and grab him as we fly. At the top of the climb I turn my opponent so that his head is facing the ground I then wrap my legs around his arms and body as I hold his legs still on the descent to avoid him escaping. As we near the ground I release the hold from my legs with just enough time for me to cushion my own impact, as we land my opponents skull is driven into the floor resulting in him getting the serious ouchies!
A skull driven into the ground from such heights would easily cause major disorientation upon regaining there feet as well as severe headaches and possible blurred vision etc.

 

[Adachi]

Indeed, indeed. xD Not to mention, a very cracked floor.
