[Ken] The art of the blade taught by Nathan sensei

[Shinobi B]

Benn analyzes the scenario and description.

"Right, You need me to get into the air, then fall from the sky with my blade faced downward intended for an over head stab. Fair enough. Lemme give it a go."

He familiarizes himself with his surroundings, spotting a tree.

"Okay good news. I see some perks. Those being the way you perform it can be swift and surprising. I also think it could be done possibly with a simple front flip."

He looks some more.

"Bad news, you're gonna need to use this in combination with something, or out of view. If you tried this from far, aiming to have your jump reach the target, your prey. And while doing this....you can't really change your flight path...if you're falling, you're falling. Another disadvantage is the rate at which something like this can be dodged...and even half of that being counter rated. Could jump back. Or challenge the blade falling at them."

His eyes on that lone tree behind the clone. Benn rushes the target preparing his first attack, he reaches to his left waist, gripping the awesome tanto provided by Castiel. Within 2m~3m he begins to spin, unsheathing his tanto allowing it to rip with each spin at the clone pushing it back several steps.

He lands, shredding through the clone with the same force as the final hit of Ken Rendan. He rises from one knee, snatching the blade from the dirt between Castiels clone's feet. He twirls the blade in his palm before placing it in his sheath. Castiels clone disappearing as the sword clinks into the sheath.

 

[Nathan]

So with that, I can't teach you anymore. You have to post more to learn B-ranks, sorry man.

 

[Shinobi B]

May we continue? I am 25 posts away at the moment and by time you read this I'll be S-Jounin

 

[Nathan]

Alright.

(Bakuchi Tori Kuzu Oujou) – Gambling Bird Arrowroot Death
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user bolts in front of the enemy who they then strike with their sword handle before delivering several kicks that sends the enemy into the air. The user then bolts across to the far off location of the enemy who they then punch violently into an obstacle.

Okay with this one, I want you to run up or bolt as it says towards my clone, using your sword handle I want you to hit the clone once, then proceed to kick him, many times and with the finally kick send him up into the air, now as the clone is falling, I want you to punch him so it sends him flying into the tree behind yes, this technique is good since it's one technique with some many attacks, only bad thing is that is your target manages to block/counter lets say the kicks, the whole technique would else flop.

 

[Shinobi B]

Thanks for continuing the lesson sensei!

Benn smiles, researching his surroundings before he sighs.

"Sensei"(Continues in spoiler)

He says turning his back on the clone, facing Castiel before nodding. He grabs the hilt of his blade as he slouches slightly.

"I get it, watch this."

He quickly bolts left toward the clone in a half diamond route(<|>). Half way through the half diamond he rips his blade out, twirling it above his head before launching it into the sky above him.

As he completes the half diamond, Benn begins a series of punches throwing five before the blade would begin to end its descend above him.

Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: The user punches the opponent a few times and finishes them with two final slashes with their blade or sword.

Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short

Description: The user will drop down upon the opponent from mid air pointing their sword downwards and drilling it down into the opponent.

The clones head would lean to his knees as Benn lands. Upon landing Benn continues Ikari Nomikomu by slashing the clones shoulder causing it to begin to lean back up naturally. His knee clashes into the clones face moments after causing it lean back sticking its stomach outward. The hasty fight then drills it in the gut twice with two kicks with his right leg.
He hops off his left to his right leg, throwing his left leg into the clones left waist, sending it flying left several feet.

Description: The user bolts in front of the enemy who they then strike with their sword handle before delivering several kicks that sends the enemy into the air. The user then bolts across to the far off location of the enemy who they then punch violently into an obstacle.

As the clone flies left from Benn, about four feet off the ground, Benn bolts off, catching up alongside it and performs a running spinning back hand knocking the clone into a near by tree.

"Hows that?"

He says turning his back to the tree he hit the clone too. It snapping in half from the middle and falling to the ground. The force of gravity place on its heavy heavy stature causing it to shake and echo within the area once it hit the ground.

Benn begins scratching the back of his head and smiling.

 

[Nathan]

You're welcome man.

Great.

(Rensei Shinkuken) – Drilling Crimson Blade
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user takes out their blade and channels chakra into it. They then run towards the opponent, slashing them upwards into the air and then appear above him/her, and deliver a sharp, drilling slash down upon them, impelling them into the ground.

Okay so with this one, you'll need to channel some chakra into your blade from there, run towards my clone, then by using your sword slash your sword upwards on the body of my clone, this should push him into the air, then you'll want to appear above him, by using your sword once more hit him with a drilling slash that sends him into the ground, with of course the sword also impelled into him.

In that moment Benn dashes to the clone, already infusing chakra into his blade. "Now thats what I'm talking about Castiel sensei!! This sounds like my style!!" With his blade hovering slightly off the ground as he holds the hilt upside down. He reaches the clone and

The chakra streaming from his blade as he raises it upward, brushing it harshly against the clone chest sending it into the air. He crouches quickly infusing chakra into his jump before quickly rocketing into the air. As he gains leverage on his target, He rotates his blade upside down and somersaults, giving him enough force and room to jam his blade into the clones chest and continue the descend to the ground. Benn lands on both feet, a thick cloud of dirt smoke rising from the landing area. As it clears Benn is seen holding his blade. It lodged into the chest of the clone. He smirks before ripping it out and sheathing his blade into its holster.

"Well Castiel san. So far I see alot of perks.

Some ways to slip up but..with my skill...added by your tutelage of course . I think I can manage. "

Oi Sensei!!! Check me out .
Ok What I've learned is ​

Spoiler

One/three advantages:

• 1. Effective for off guard using.
• 2. Seems like a good move to use after Bakuchi Tori Kuzu Oujou. Instead of kicking them into an obstacle I'll bounce them off the ground then re launch them with this.
• 3. If I use Kirigakure no Jutsu before this........... O.O

One/three disadvantages:

• 1. If I slip up...I'm chow!
• 2. If the opponent knows his/her Kenjutsu they may counter it.
• 3.

Note: In a nutshell. Powerful, but too much power can cause me a problem.

How you would use it in battle:
Like the usuals. In conjunction with a Suiton or Raiton jutsu or even another Kenjutsu.
How you would counter it:
Using my blade to effectively block the upward thrusting attack that begins the Jutsu.
How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):
......Ooops.......uhhhhhh.....*Sweats*...NO REDOS!! *Runs off Screen*

 

[Nathan]

Ah that was a good read, thanks!

(Suraisu Shinku no Nami) - Slicing Crimson Wave
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user does a simple cresent-shaped slash at the opponent, expelling a red chakra wave.

This one is one of the more used techniques, since it is straight forward and well easy to pull off, what I want you to do is, gather your chakra in your blade and from there, I want you slash downwards to release a crescent shaped slash, at my clone. This technique releases a red wave of chakra, it's handy for targets that are at mid-range of you, and just an overall good technique.

 

[Shinobi B]

Glad you liked it . Took awhile to edit the background from behind the chibi version but it felt worth it...Tried to make the post feel like an anime...little mini version explaining things a bit before running off screen lol.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Gathering chakra in his right hand, Benn studies the feeling until it becomes of habit. Once balanced he releases the chakra and re-molds it several times hitting the right point needed and then again releasing it.

"Ok Castiel san. So you spelled out the perks for me. I see this as a good move personally for incoming opponents. Catch Em slippin upon engaging me." He grabs the hilt of his sword, focusing chakra once more then releasing it.

"Three seconds...I've set a personal chakra timing of three seconds. I'ma use this jutsu in a real fast pace. So im setting requirements to myself upon how fast my blade needs to leave and then re enter my sheath based on the timing I use my....oh lord I'm rambling jus...just watch..."

On its own. Possibly from a hidden location. Something to focus my chakra into and release fiercely.

-Performed below-

-Described in words rather than actions below in my next post.-

Quickly grabbing his blade, he rips it from his sheath. Chakra flowing from his hands to his blade, Benn raises his katana into the air in front of him, grabbing it with both hands.

As the blunt end taps his back, he quickly slashes downward in what, from a side view, looks like a crescent shape.

OMG I COULDNT RESIST XD LAWL​

​

He releases his chakra and looks up noticing several feet before him, a thin beam of red light flying forward. As the red wave hits the clone it disperses. Seconds later the clones upper body wear is torn from belly button to neck in a thin slice, parting it. It falls to a knee and disperses into a grey smoke.

"Urrrrsha!!! I did it sensei!!"

He yells. Over excited as he runs over. His favorites scroll in his hands as he writes the process down. "I say personally. I'd use this one as a set up for other Ken/Ninjutsu(Elements). In stealth its a keeper. I'd also like to try this out while using some of my Suiton techs..." Holding his chin he thinks...and then blurts out"Best countering advice ever....MOVE! Get the hell outta the way." He says while laughing.

 

[Nathan]

You forgot one thing the template. D:

The performance was outstanding as always though.

 

[Shinobi B]

Sorry lol that last gif had me rollin.

Well...until I can maintain shooting multiple crescents back to back...I'd use this to start off a combo of kenjutsu maneuvers. How ever...similar to the hadouken and or other similar focus and burst jutsu. I find myself using this to shoot off one decent sized crescent to finish an enemy.

The way above is another method of how I'd use it.

No stress mate.

(Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Chidorigatana) - Grass Cutter Sword: One Thousand Birds Katana
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user flows Chidori current through a katana in manner similar to flying swallow technique. The Radiating and chirping blade can easily cut through steel. Furthermore, the body of the person cut by the sword goes numb, taking away their freedom of movement.

You need at least A-rank lighting to use this technique, but since you can't even learn A-ranks yet, we'll have to leave it for the time being.

------------

So we'll move onto this:

(Chakura Bōsekiken) - Chakra Spinning Blade
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user will channel chakra into their sword making it glow blue and then jumping into the air they spin at a rapid rate creating a spinning circle and cutting through the enemy target.

Okay with this last technique that I can teach you, I want you to gather your chakra into your blade which will made the blade glow blue, from there I want you then to jump into the air and make yourself spin very fast, allowing you to cut threw your target, this technique looks useful, but I guess the fact you have to jump in the air to use it is, a bit of a downside.

 

[Shinobi B]

Hai! He yells preparing himself in excitement.
Gathering chakra into his blade he quickly jumps, a blue aura trailing each meter he climbs.
He begins to spins, placing the blade above his head so the sword would cut as he spun.
His chakra pouring from the blade, he cuts through a very large thick branch upon the tree above him.
As he descends the chakra vanishes before he touches earth. Looking over to Castiel with a sly look on his face.

Heh...wow....This seems familiar.

He walks over with his hand on his chin. You sir....you....Smart
He giggles a bit...Looks up at the sky noticing the tree branch.

Wha...Wha..WHAT! I DiD THaT!?
Wooden dust fly above his head trickling down upon him. He moves back, closer Castiel. In awe of the jutsu.
He looks over to Castiel

One/three advantages:
1. Familiar...but with chakra..yay!
2. Goes in the favs instantly (Rips out the fav scroll)
3.


One/three disadvantages:
1. Preparation
2. Distance neutralized
3. Miss and Die scenarios


How you would use it in battle:
In the mix of a good combo. Ken Rendan...A Raiton start up...for sure the works.

How you would counter it:
Dodging is efficient...But no one will dodge mine that easily im sure....
Its the preparation that counts...And i'm aware that their is some...prep that is....

How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):
Most like I would use this in conjunction with Hidden Mist...Comboing with Ken Rendan No Jutsu and finishing with Slicing Crimson Wave...That would be a sick finish..

Benn extends his hand to Castiel. His head turned with a look that says...*I hate goodbyes but I'm a man so I'll hide it*
