Techniques of the mind with Adachi ^_^

[Houdinii]

Excellent description.
I will now go over another important aspect of battles.
Field of vision.
By knowing where your opponent's eyes are directed at all times allows you take advantage of this and send a jutsu from a direction where you know they won't be looking at. This is also especially important when you are battling against Doujutsu users, especially Byakugans, because they only have one blind spot out of their 360 vision.
This jutsu blocks your opponent's field of vision, so that you are able to execute other moves upon him while he scrambles to see again.

Spoiler

( Genjutsu: Kahen Tonsou ) - Illusion Technique: Flower Petal Escape
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user makes five handseals, appearing to dissolve into a shower of cherry blossom petals. These petals surround the opponent, blocking his vision. This allows the user to mask his movement effectively.

This is one of the many ways to be creative when disguising your next move in a battle. By outplaying your opponent or tricking them, it allows you to defeat them in battle.

This next jutsu allows the use of an explosive tag.
The explosive tag is a very important ninja tool. Tell me several ways to use it and how it works in battle.

Explosive tags are very useful for setting various traps for your opponent. One of the most common ways to use it is in conjunction with a kunai that is thrown at the opponent. By doing so this makes that simple attack much more deadlier and can be used to achieve a variety of things. The explosive tag is used by placing it on something or someone as desired and when the user wants the detonation they perform a simple mental command to make it explode. One of my favourite ways to use it is in conjunction with this earth jutsu:

Spoiler

(Doton: Dochū Eigyo no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique
Rank: C
Type: Defence/Supplementary
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: Using this jutsu, a person can hide underground until they're ready to attack an opponent. By utilizing earth-chakra, the person can stealthily emerge from the ground without disrupting the ground around him. This jutsu can also be used to avoid incoming jutsus.

If your opponent is fairly close to you, attempting a punch or a kick. You can use the earth jutsu to sink into the ground and as you do you leave an explosive tag on the surface, thus making an offensive aspect of a usually defensive only technique. So in all the explosive tag is used to augment your fighting style in an almost innumerable ways, limited only to the users creativity and imagination, similar to genjutsu

 

[Adachi]

LOL, I can imagine that actually. Sink into the ground as the opponent has this WTF face, and then moments later, everything explodes. You can also attach explosive tags to clones and send them forward (just like exploding Kage Bunshin) and there is also a special Ninjutsu technique that makes them invisible. Then have them explode close on impact to your enemy.
Remember that you need to make the snake handseal for this to explode.
Now, I want you to take over the mind of my clone and make him think that a clone of you is walking towards him.
In reality, however, the clone conceals in an incoming explosive tag.
Time it well.

I begin by concentrating my chakra and I then channel it over to your clone. Once it reaches him I insert it into his brain and disturb his chakra flow, hijacking his senses. I then throw an explosive tag towards him and manipulate his sight so that he sees it as a simple clone coming towards him. This clone runs towards him in an agressive manner, hiding the paper bomb and distracting your clone. Once the paper bomb has reached him I perform the snake handseal, causing it to explode.*

 

[Adachi]

Perfect. So, when a clone advances, it directs their attention on the clone, allowing you to pull off more moves. And especially because this is a Genjutsu, and you can conceal sound, you can cook up a strong move while they are focused on the clone, such as Rasenshuriken. Sound is another important aspect of battling, and it usually alerts us to one jutsu or the other.

Spoiler

( Genjutsu: Kasumi ) - Illusion Technique: Servant
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user does one handseal and throws a paper bomb at the enemy. The enemy, trapped in a genjutsu will see a clone of the user advancing upon him. As the paper bomb reaches the enemy, it explodes

Once again, use your chakra to manipulate my clone's five senses.
I want you to surround my clone with your clones, having them rise up from the ground. (As an illusion.)
My clone will then attempt to attack your clones, and what you must do is to physically block him each time, tricking him into thinking that they are real.
Furthermore, every time he hits one, they multiply. <- Explain the purpose of this.

To begin I concentrate my chakra and I then channel it over towards your clone. Once it reaches him I insert it into his brain and disturb his normal chakra flow, hijacking his senses. By doing so I manipulate your clones sight so that he sees 5 clones of myself rise from the ground surrounding him. As they are doing this I get into position behind your clone in his blind spot. So that once he begins to attack my clones I use my hands and shins to block his attacks, timed with my clones own blocks. This gives the illusion that they are real corporeal clones. I manipulate the genjutsu so that every time your clone strikes one of mine, the clone multiplies slowing increasing the amount of clones until your clone is greatly outnumbered.

The fact that clones multiply every time one is struck serves multiple purposes. Firstly it confuses the opponent and makes them reluctant to attack, from fear of worsening their situation. It also distracts your opponent from you, putting mental strain on them while they try to think of a way to deal with their situation. But the multiplying clones could also give away the fact that its a genjutsu.

 

[Adachi]

Excellent response. I'd be quite shocked if I were suddenly surrounded by a bunch of clones, haha, and yes, mental strain, or even strategic pressure, so to speak.
The point of Genjutsu is to trick the enemy, so yes, he would have also have a hard time picking out which clone it is. But you must always remember to strike where he does, as this would have a bit of impact on your prediction skills.
You can trap him in such a state for awhile, and if you had made a Shadow clone beforehand, you can have that clone attack your opponent while he is fumbling to get out of this Genjutsu.

Spoiler

( Kasumi Jūsha no Jutsu ) - Mist Servant Technique
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost:10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This illusion creates numerous illusionary clones of the user that appear to emerge from the ground, trees, rocks, etc. If these clones are attacked, they appear to multiply. The user can co-ordinate his attacks with the clones to make it appear as if they are real.

Now, think of someone close to you and something they might fear the most.

My mum has a bad fear of snakes Lol

 

[Adachi]

Say that your mom was trapped in a room full of snakes. What would be the psychological impact on her?

She'd freak out xD get stressed, scared, be unable to think straight. That kinda stuff

 

[Adachi]

Perfect. You described mainly psychological effects, but I'll narrow it down - Genjutsus mainly cause two effects:
Fear and Stress.
Stress would cause their blood pressure to go up, thus, giving them labored breathing, which exhausts them, and also hinders their rationalizations.

Spoiler

( Magen: Narakumi ) - Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user performs two handseals causing it to appear as if a swirl of leaves surrounds the opponent. The swirl eventually falls away, and after a few seconds, the opponent sees the image of whatever they fear the most, shocking them and potentially causing them to faint.

This next jutsu is rather basic.
Focus upon the flow of the chakra of your body in order to "spike" it so that it throws the balance off, thus releasing you from any current Genjutsu that may have a hold on you. Remember to form a handseal prior to doing this.
This is known as Kai, one of the ways to disrupt Genjutsus.
Do you know what rank Genjutsus this can go up to?

I begin by focusing on my chakra flow noting its natural tendencies as it flows, I then form a single hand seal and I concentrate upon my chakra and forcibly stop its flow. Leaving it stopped momentarily I then spike the chakra, forcing out any abnormalities hindering normal chakra flow.

Kai can release up to S rank genjutsu if a sage uses it, I myself however can only use it to release B rank and below genjutsu ~_~ it is also noteworthy that since you have to form a hand seal to use Kai, it cannot be used against any genjutsu which paralyses or immobilizes you.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect. Remember that Kai requires a handseal and you cannot use it if your body is immobilized by the Genjutsu. So in the case where you can't move your hands or feet, how would you get out of a Genjutsu?

Well in that case I would use a full body surge that doesn't require movement. Such as either of these techniques:

Spoiler

(Raiton: Chidori Nagashi) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds Current
Rank: A
Type: Offense/Defence
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: This jutsu allows the user to generate non-focused electrically charged chakra from their body. Because the electricity isn't focused, it doesn't kill on contact, instead it only paralyzes. The lightning can be channelled through metal objects, as well as spread out into the air or ground.

(Doton: Chō Kajūgan no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Super Added Weight Rock Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: A more advanced version of the Earth Release: Added Weight Rock Technique, in which the user drastically increases the weight of any object in direct physical contact, but to a much greater extent than that of the original ability. Under certain circumstances, the technique can be used to increase the force behind attacks.
Note: Note: The Initial effects last for 1 turn before the weight of the mass is returned to normal.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect!

( Genjutsu: Kai ) - Illusion Technique: Release
Rank: C-A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15-30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user does one hand seal to focus and then proceeds to disturb his chakra flow by forcefully stopping it momentarily and then "spiking" his spiritual energy, unbalancing his chakra. This dispels any genjutsu set upon the user except MS Eye Techniques, Paralysis-like Genjutsu and Demonic Illusion: Toad Confrontation Chant. The effectiveness of this technique is dependent upon the skill of the user. A Jounin rank ninja can dispel Genjutsu up to C-rank. An S-class ninja can dispel Genjutsu up to B-rank. A Sannin rank ninja (and above) can dispel Genjutsu up to A-rank. The user may use this technique through physical contact on others to dispel them from Genjutsu.

This next jutsu was used in the Chunin exams. When my clone begins walking, send your chakra to him and have him believe he is walking in a straight line, thus proceeding.
In reality, he is walking in circles.
Describe the psychological impact of this.

Describe the psychological impact of this.

I begin by concentrating my chakra and I then channel it over to your clone as he is walking, I then push it into his mind and disturb and then control his chakra flow, placing him under an illusion. In this illusion I affect his sense of sight to make it seem as though he is walking in a straight line while in reality, I am causing him to run around in circles aimlessly.

The impact of this jutsu would be that you can control your opponents actions to an extent. When under its effect this jutsu would cause the opponent waste their time, stopping their progress to whatever form of goal they have. Making this jutsu good for delaying your opponent while you set up something else, especially since this genjutsu isn't easy to notice.

 

[Adachi]

Very good. Don't forget that they also eventually get tired and physically exert energy from this.

( Kori Shinchū no Jutsu ) - Sly Mind Affect Technique
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost:15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user casts an illusion on the opponent that makes them believe they are travelling in a straight line, when instead they are moving in circles. This is only effective on moving opponents. If the opponent travels in the circle for hours, they will be exhausted.

This next jutsu is pretty straightforward.
Release your chakra from your body to take over my clone's five senses.
Then have him believe that a huge ball of fire is coming from the sky, ready to burn him into a crisp!

I begin by concentrating my chakra before channeling it over to your clone. There I force it into his mind and grab hold of his senses, hijacking his chakra flow and manipulating it for my own uses. I then cause your clone to see a huge fireball above him that is falling straight towards him.

A couple questions about this genjutsu:
1)Does it affect all 5 senses at the same time? So the affected will hear the fire, feel the heat, etc?

2)If the fireball actually hits the person, does it do mental damage to them?

 

[Adachi]

1. Yes, as all Genjutsus should be able to. But you must be specific in stating that it does so.
2. Yes, it should, but who lets that happen in battles nowadays?

And a question from me to you - how do you think your opponent might react and how might you counter his counter?

Understood thank you ^_^

Well assuming the opponent doesn't have sensing or something similar to easily notice that its a genjutsu the most obvious thing for them to do is for them to simply move out of the path of the fireball so they won't be affected. The counter to that would be to use an earth jutsu or something similar to stop them from moving or move them back under the fireball. If they did know it was a genjutsu you can take the time that they use to release the illusion to launch a sneak or quick attack at them which backs them into a corner.

 

[Adachi]

Close, but not too close.
What's the most obvious way to put out fire, and how might you counter that counter?
