[Taijutsu] with Akihiko

[Thoth]

*starts going towards his opponent at medium speed*
While doing it, he thinks about how to do the faint properly and fool the clone. When he gets near, he speeds a bit, but still not his full speed. When he comes just before the clone, he raises his right leg and aims his head. He sees that the clone is trying to protect itself with both of it's hands, but just before the clone succeeds in blocking his leg, he stops. He severely lowers his right leg on the ground and raises his left leg to kick the clone into it's rib cage, while seeing it shocked. He kicks the clone really hard, making it roll till it hits a nearby tree and dissapears.

 

[Adachi]

Excellent. So did you remember to hold back most of your body weight and then strike with your second leg + the weight?

 

[Thoth]

Yes, and I will try to remember it and follow it in the future.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect. ^_^

(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.

 

[Thoth]

*starts collecting his chakra*
He stops in a few seconds because this is taijutsu and a great amount of chakra is not needed. He starts going toward his senpai's clone at moderately speed. The clone first thinks that it has time to defend itself due to it thinking that he's slow. When he gets just a few feet in fron t of a clone, he raises his right hand to look like he's trying to punch it in the face. The clone is stunned and it reflexively tries to defend itself with both hands. But, he severely stops the attacking whilst being just in front of him and he crouches himself using the almighty gravity by allowing his body to be propelled backwards. Then, he takes the advantage of the clone being unprepared and raises his right leg up, toward his head. He uses the chakra that he's gathered to make the kick faster and deadlier. He casts the clone up in the sky, causing it fell on earth really badly and vanish.

 

[Adachi]

Well done. O_O Remember to use your body weight as momentum...

(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, so proceed to dash up to my clone and strike him with a downwards thrust towards the ground.

 

[Thoth]

*starts confidently going toward the sensei's clone*
When he gets to the clone, he swings with his hand and while doing that, he puts all of his power into it. He strikes the clone with his right hand, causing it to fall on the earth really badly at high speed and pressure, and disappear.

I'm ashamed of this answer. But, I'm so out of ideas on this one.

 

[Adachi]

Ah, well, we can go in quite the detail for this.
Firstly, why do you choose the head to strike with?

 

[Thoth]

You mean why I chose to use hand?

I chose it because it's easier to concentrate your power in a hadn than to a leg, in this case. It's hard to raise your leg like that in an affective and strong ways as you do with a hand.

 

[Adachi]

*facepalm* Late night, was tired.
I mean, where did you strike my clone to make him fall towards the ground?

 

[Thoth]

I stroke it in it's head because it is the most affective and needs the least effort to bring it down.

 

[Adachi]

I stroke it in it's head because it is the most affective and needs the least effort to bring it down.

LOL?

(Asshō) - Pressure Palm
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 15
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

 

[Thoth]

*locates the sensei's clone*
He imagines in his head how this attack supposes to look like. After he has the concept of it in his head, he starts running toward the clone relaxed, with a medium speed. He waits 'till the clone think that he's weak and that his speed is low, he appears to be very close to it. Now, in one moment he starts running really fast and gets just before the clone in a split of a second. He sees that the clone is stunned and paralyzed from the wonderment and that it's all perfect to preform the technique and he bends a bit because the clone is higher than him. He severely concentrates his strength in his right palm ans starts swinging with it toward the clone's abdomen. He angles the fist so that it would raise the clone and strikes it. He throws the clone a few meters above the earth. It flows a bit and then crashes into a sharp rock.

 

[Adachi]

Perfectly done. ^_^ Keep in mind that your opponent is much more vulnerable in the air, so this is a great starting move.

(Shōgekishō) - Upwards Attacking Palm
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 15
Description: The user strikes their opponent with an upwards thrust into the abdomen lifting them into the air.

Now, how does a fist and a palm differ in attacks?

 

[Thoth]

Fist often grants the user a greater power than a fist, due to the fact that he/she can collect and wisely use his power easier. But, the palm has it's advantages. Palm can be used to push the opponent up in the sky, which the fist is unable to do. Also when using a ninjutsu it's way more common to use the palm then the fist. In taijutsu, things are opposite.^^

Or in other terms, palm is when your fingers on hand are widespread and the fist is when they are collected. xD

 

[Adachi]

Perfect. A bigger area of impact, to be direct.
Much like the force, haha.
So, proceed to run up to my clone and strike him with a palm to the chest.

 

[Thoth]

*turns around to be able to see the sensei's clone*
He concentrates on doing this technique and now, starts running to ward his opponent at full speed because he wants the attack to be more powerful and deadlier. When he gets really close to the clone, he stretches out his right hand, opening his palm. When he gets there, he strongly strikes the clone with his forwarding palm and makes him fly above the earth for really long time until it crashes with the rock and disappears.

 

[Adachi]

Yes, they magically appear. >.>

(Hōshō) - Crumbling Palm
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 15
Description: The user strikes the opponent with a forwarding palm thrust.

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...

 

[Thoth]

*stretches out his shoulder a bit with doing a few circles with them*
Whe he's done with the preparation, he locates the sensei's clone and turns toward it. He looks really calm down, he eve closes his eyes and then... In a split of a second he starts running at full speed because in this one, he doesn't have to lift anything or stretch out his leg. As he is going really fast, at the few meters from the target, he severely changes his side to the left for the 45° and curls up just a tiny bit. He rushes into the clone's chest with his right shoulder with his full strength. He pushes the clone far, far away because of his speed and invested power. The clone disappears from the deep grazes that he's got on the way.

 

[Adachi]

Hm, very well done. Straightforward jutsu, and can be used to just ram someone, however, it leaves you vulnerable because you're basically using a huge part of your body and gravity propels you forward. Don't get sidestepped. Good place to target too, by the way.
