Description: After activating the Satsui no Hadō, the user focuses a large amount of chakra throughout his/her body, using his rage and anger to 'warp' the chakra, so to speak, causing the characteristic red chakra flares around his/her body to bend around his body, creating a coat of chakra that manifests itself as a kind of after-image when the user moves, making it harder for the enemy to strike him head-on. The increase of chakra throughout his body also increases his speed sharply, effectively doubling it during the time the jutsu is used. Once he has activated the Satsui no Hadō, the user widens his stance, and his enhanced chakra-cloak glows red. He then lifts one knee and quickly "glides" along the ground to another location with his eyes aglow. Where he glides depends on whether the user choices to move forward, backwards, or any other direction, so long as it is in a straight line from his starting position and no item (i.e. tree, giant rock, building, etc) is in his path. The glide can be used to get away from an opponent bearing down on him, to suddenly launch an attack (often from behind), or perhaps to simply psych out the opponent and keep them guessing. Due to the dark nature of the Satsui no Hadō, the red chakra around the user is imbibed with such an evil intent, that it actually hurts the user's skin and burns his skins slightly as he uses it, similar to how Naruto's skin is burned when using the 4-tailed transformation; however it works on both ends of the spectrum: as long as the Ashura Senku technique is active, the user's skin will be in intense pain but if an enemy were to strike him while it is active, they will feel the same pain, though on a greater scale when compared to the user. However, given all the perks of the jutsu, the user has much to be wary about. After using it, he speed is also dramatically decreased, causing him to severally be limited in terms of movement. Furthermore, the user is unable to use the jutsu in rapid succession. It takes a minimal of two turns in between before he is able to use the jutsu again.
Notes:
*Can only be usedfour times at a most, with a two turn waiting period in between.
*The user can only move uni-directionally, meaning he can only glide in straight lines. He also can only glide from one range to the next, meaning he can move from short range to mid range, mid range to long range and vice-versa but not short range to long range or long range to short range.
*After the technique has ended, the user's speed is severely lowered, causing him to move at half his current speed.
*Can only be used after the Satsui no Hadō has been activated.
*Must have learned Satsui no Hadō and be at least 'User' rank within the Satsui no Hadō ranking system (See CFS for details).
*Gilding isn't the same as flying or hovering. The user "kicks/jumps" into a direction so fast that he "glides" until he reaches the destination. As such, this technique can't be used in mid-air.
