The Chimes Sound in the Wind; with Akihiko

[Chime]

Chime thinks to himself a moment.
"Offensively, it could be good in close combat if you have enough time to clap your hands. A direct hit could push your opponent back enough to give you an opening. It'd also be good to use with weapons, to make them deadlier, and against weapons to push them away. It seems to have a lot of physical force behind it, so thats a good part about this technique."

 

[Adachi]

"Well said," Akihiko responded. "Also, it helps disregard Taijutsus attacks, which can be very deadly and swift in close range combat."
Upon finishing these words, he reached into the flap of his Jonin cloak, pulling out three shurikens. Holding out his hand, he offered them to Chime. "Take these shuriken and get a good feel of them. Then, propel your Wind chakra into them so that they are afloat in the air. Then, direct all three of them at once towards my clone. How does your Fuuton chakra affect these shurikens, making them different from a normal shuriken?"

Description: A simple technique that when the users hands are clapped together, wind is compressed and transformed into a powerful gale. This technique, when used as an isolated attack has the power to easily knock over a human. Though the true value comes from using it together with projectile weapons like shuriken or kunai. Their speed, power, and ability to wound or even kill are all increased several times.

Chime smiles at his sensei's praise. He watches Akihiko remove a few weapons from his cloak, wondering what he will use them for.
"Right sensei, i'll do my best."
Chime reaches his hand out, taking the shuriken from Akihiko. He begins to focus his chakra, and then flings the shuriken high into the air. As they begin their descent, he channels his previously gathered chakra into the shuriken, coating them with a thin layer of wind. The shuriken then hover in the air around Chime at this time.
Alright, one part down. Just need to finish this off!
Concentrating on the shuriken within the wind coats, he manipulates his chakra forward, carrying the weapons. The weapons flash towards his sensei's clone, embedding themselves into his chest.
"Hmm, according to what i've seen, the wind around the shuriken makes them more powerful and also can increase damage They might even go further than normally. Since you are using more than one shuriken, you can have a bigger area of effect as well."

 

[Adachi]

"Excellent response," Akihiko replied. "Wind chakra not only enhances its power, but also indeed allows it to travel faster and further. When tossing shurikens, the best place to aim it at are the vital parts on the body, such as the heart, the jugular vein, or even the eyes to deal blindness."
He walked up to Chime, placing his hands together like a handshake, yet leaving his index fingers touching against one another. "This is the Tiger handseal," he explained. "We will be dealing with handseals for this next move. What do you know about handseals and their importance in battles, including timing?"

"We will be dealing with handseals for this next move. What do you know about handseals and their importance in battles, including timing?"

"Well, hand seals are required for most, not all, techniques. They act as chakra requirements, so each hand seal represents a different amount or "level" of chakra used. You want to use as little hand seals as possible when in a tough spot, otherwise you could be hurt or killed while still doing them."

 

[Adachi]

"Yes, and the more you have mastered a move, such as Chidori, which originally requires three handseals, it would only require one once you master it. Now, let's say your move had five handseals, and your opponent only had two. How would that make a difference in a battle?"

"Well, if you both start at the same time, he would finish his hand seals first, since there is a fewer number of them. That means his attack will get you before yours gets him."

 

[Adachi]

"Very good," Akihiko responded, nodding. "Now, for this next jutsu, proceed to form the handseals of Tiger, Ox, Dog, Rabbit, and Snake, in that very order and then after noting what kind of effects the handseals you made has on your jutsu, proceed to build up chakra within your lungs and then release it in a gust of wind. If you know Katon, light it on fire too as you release the jutsu."

If you know Katon, light it on fire too as you release the jutsu."

Chime listens to his sensei's words, and then performs the Tiger → Ox → Dog → Rabbit → Snake. Once done, the chakra requirements for the technique become apparent, as Chime builds up the necessary chakra. The chakra is focused in his lungs, where he expels it out as a gust of wind. Quickly behind the wind, he shoots a ball of fire to combine with the wind technique to make it more deadly.

The wind eventually grew in front of Chime, slowly expanding, but the instant he added Katon to it, it exploded, turning into a huge wall of angry fire.
It traveled for a good distance, blazing in the distance as it eventually faded out.
"Not bad for a first try," Akihiko said. "However, let's go over what you did in more detail.
Firstly, how did the fire affect the move's power and speed? Secondly, how might this be utilized in battle?
Try once more, but aim the move at my clone to see the effects."

"Well, the fire increases the wind's power because you're adding more power to the attack. The speed is affected slightly to be a bit faster, but not so much. This can be used to make combination attacks, so the opponent will have a harder time to defend from your attack."
Afterwords, Chime shifts his body to the side, towards his sensei's clones. He performs the Tiger → Ox → Dog → Rabbit → Snake. Once done, the chakra requirements for the technique become apparent, as Chime builds up the necessary chakra. The chakra is focused in his lungs, where he expels it out as a gust of wind. Quickly behind the wind, he shoots a ball of fire to combine with the wind technique to make it more deadly. This attack is aimed for the clone, in order to kill him.

 

[Adachi]

Um, welcome back?

"Well done," Akihiko replied. "However, remember that the Fire also greatly expands the Wind's techniques and overcomes it." He created another clone, gesturing at it.
"Now, this next jutsu was originally a fan technique, but it is not necessary to have such a weapon to perform this. Simply, gather Wind chakra in your lungs and pressurize it, releasing it in a huge violent blast of slashing Wind. Towards my clone please."

(Fūton: Daitoppa) - Wind Release: Great Break Through
Rank: C
Type:Attack
Range:Short-Long
Chakra Cost:15
Damage Points:30
Description: This is a relatively simple technique that when the user performs the following hand seals Tiger → Ox → Dog → Rabbit → Snake they create a sudden gust of wind, but its scale varies greatly depending on the user. If used by a superior shinobi, it has enough destructive power to knock down a large tree. The wind from the squall can blow away all things in the user's line of sight. A variation of the technique involves a smaller blast of wind which gets ignited with flame.

Thank you.

I focus my futon chakra, and then perform the following hand seals, Tiger → Ox → Dog → Rabbit → Snake. Once that is done, I release a powerful gust of wind from my mouth, that is aimed to knock over or severely unbalance your clone when the gust hits his body.

 

[Adachi]

o_o
Mkay, so why is balance so important in battle, especially in regards to Taijutsu?

 

[Chime]

Well if you are off balance you cannot perform the powerful strikes, because you need to throw your whole body into a punch for example. You also could not move about as quickly, because you cannot get a good foothold to do what you want.

 

[Adachi]

Perfect.

(Fūton: Kamaitachi no Jutsu) - Wind Release: Sickle Weasel Technique
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: User creates a whirlwind of slicing wind. Originally used by Temari with her fan, there is a way to create this jutsu without a weapon. Performing quickly handseals, the user will gather his Fuuton chakra into the lungs to blow out a sharp gust of wind, which in conjunction with the handseals will create a gust of violent slashing wind. The wind created is strong enough to push the opponent back or create 2 inch deep slashes to his body, however the user cannot direct slashes.

Now, I want you again to focus your Fuuton chakra within you. This time, in your lungs. Build it up within your body and then release it in the form of a sphere towards my clone here -creates clone-, sort of like how cannons spit out their cannonballs.

 

[Chime]

Perfect.

I focus my futon chakra into my lungs to begin with. I concentrate on amassing an appropriate amount of chakra there, until I feel I have the necessary amount. I release it from my throat, forming the chakra into a violent, slashing wind. The release of the chakra is quick and sudden, like a cannonshot.

 

[Adachi]

Good, so where did you aim it at on my clone, and what was the resulting impact?

 

[Chime]

Oh yes, I should've mentioned that. >.> Let's say it struck his lower legs, around the calf. So, he would be forcibly removed from his feet, face planting hard into the ground as he would do almost a "somersault" in the air.

 

[Adachi]

Well done.
