"Very good, now then, I'm sure you're familiar with some of the techniques within Katon. I want you to give me four examples of techniques that you think are in this method. Just rattle off four names of Jutsu."
_____

Hw for you, go to the Fire Release Skill and bring me back four jutsu that would fit in this category, from any rank.

"Lets see, Dragon Flame Blitz , Phoenix Sage Fire, Great Dragon Fire, Dragon Flame Release Song"

---

(Katon: Ryu Kaen Bakufuu ) - Fire Release: Dragon Flame Blitz
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user inhales and then exhales, shooting small balls of fire at the opponent.

( Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu ) - Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user first performs six hand seals Rat → Tiger → Dog → Ox → Rabbit → Tiger and they create a volley of small fireballs, which are sent flying in an unpredictable manner assaulting the enemy. In addition, the flames are controlled one by one with chakra, so avoiding them all is extremely difficult. Shuriken can also be concealed within the flames, creating an unexpected secondary surprise attack. Like the flames, the shuriken can be controlled with chakra. For the most part, however, this technique is used as a distraction.

( Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu ) - Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique
Rank: B
Type: Offense/Supplementary
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user fires several large dragon-shaped fireballs at their opponent after performing one handseal. It is able to alter localized weather conditions to the point of making thunder clouds when shot into the air, enabling the user to perform Kirin.

(Katon: Ryūen Hōka no Jutsu) - Fire Release: Dragon Flame Release Song Technique
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Long
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: After performing the hand seal Tiger the user compresses a large amount of chakra built up inside their body, before instead expelling it in the form of a number of dragon head-shaped fireballs. The user then skilfully manipulates that great fire, and attacks their opponent. The temperature of the created flames is so great that, even with the briefest of contact, they are capable of easily burning human flesh and the fireballs are dense enough to behave almost as solid, being able to deliver impact damage in adition to the fire damage. However, this also means that they can be deflected as a solid projectiles.

"Excellent Tobi, very good." Momiji praised. "All of those are correct. Now I have just one more question to ask you before we move on. Do you understand what it means to divide the power of a technique amongst equal parts? By that I mean do you understand how a technique in it's entirety would become weaker if you divided it amongst equal parts?"

"Yes, compared to a singular shot of fireball, a divided barrage of fireballs would mean they are individually smaller in size, strength. However they cover wider range to attack, and harder to dodge as a group than a single fireball. "

"Excellent, you have the merits of a good shinobi Tobi-kun." Momiji said. "While they won't necessarily be smaller in size than a single projectile they would be weaker and the power of the technique as a whole would be divided evenly amongst the parts.

This brings us to the benefits and drawbacks to techniques like these. Projectiles allow the user to fire their techniques and then perform another technique directly after. Once the projectiles leave your body, they become self sustaining and they head to your target. As well, most give you the potential to divide up and cover a wider area to attack your opponent from various angles.

However these are both double edged swords as; though your chakra is no longer tied to the techniques once they leave your body, they don't act like heat seeking missiles and seek out your target (pardon some unique techniques). The direction you fire them is the direction they head in which makes it easier for your opponent to avoid them. The cover for this is to have several projectiles fired at your opponent to make it harder for them to avoid, however, as you just stated when you divide a technique into several different parts, they individually become weaker as they are only parts of the whole. An A-ranked Katon projectile divided into five parts is the equivalent to firing 5 C-ranked projectiles. The five together equivalent to the one A-ranked technique. That being said, your opponent can attack with less force to attack some of the projectiles and use that as an opening to escape or avoid the others without using equivalent strength of the technique you just used. Keep these things in mind for when you use these sorts of techniques alright?"

"Now then, I want the same thing for the next two methods. Basically I want you to give me the definitions of the two method and then tell me how you think the techniques in these methods are constructed just like I had you do for the first one. Since I took you through the run through for that with the first method you should get the idea."

"Ok let see, streams are made quite the opposite from basic projectiles, they're mostly uncompressed and possess a single continuous flow of flames expelled from the user, rather than a number of shots that fireballs use. Streams are seen as the most "raw" form of fire as we see it normally in campfires or torches, they're intangible, more focused on combustibility leading them to be easier to spread wide range than fire projectiles, making them harder to avoid. They also don't require as much shape manipulation as basic projectiles does. Furthermore, this method is highly affected by air currents, making it ideal for maximising the fire's properties with the combination of wind, but also can be blown out easier than concentrated fireballs."

"I believe advanced conversions are when fire technique changes to a different form other than flames itself, as such ashes, smoke. While different, these forms typically are associated with mediums or a direct product produced by fire, therefore still fall into the realm of fire element and chakra. Using this method stretches the capabilities of fire, hence it requires much more skill in nature manipulation Not a lot of fire jutsus fall into this category."

"Very good, now, just like before tell me 2 or 3 techniques encompassed within each of these methods. Advanced conversions may be a little difficult so you only need to give me one example of that."

"Running Fire, Fire Breath and Graceful Flame for streams. Ash Pile Burning for advance conversions."

---

( Katon: Hibashiri ) - Fire Release: Running Fire
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After performing the Tiger hand seal by utilizing their fire chakra, the user will create a stream of fire that can be manipulated into several forms (rings of fire that runs on the ground or a circle of fire flying through the air) before striking the target. It can also be used in combination with Wind Release: Divine Wind to create a tornado of flames, or with Wind Release: Godly Wind from the Mountains to release a massive inferno. The stream of fire can be created by stomping the ground (running across the ground in this case) or by spewing the flames (which will form an airborne ring of flames that will travel towards the enemy).

( Katon: Hi no Iki ) - Fire Release: Fire Breath
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user breathes a powerful stream of fire from their mouth at their target.

( Katon: Yūgana Honoo ) - Fire Release: Graceful Flame
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user manipulates their fire chakra and doing the tiger hand seal, shoots an intense fire stream at the opponents feet which then lifts them into the air in the eruption of a column of intense flames. Sasori can replicate this technique through the usage of his fire launcher.

( Katon: Haisekishō ) - Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user spews superheated ash from their mouth after performing four handseals. The ash is hot enough to cause third-degree burns on the victim. Because it's composed entirely of ash, it stays in the air around the victim like a cloud. If the user clicks his teeth, the stagnant ash will ignite, creating a violent explosion.

"Excellent Tobi-kun, I'm sure you'll make a fine shinobi one day." Momiji said. The sky became a mixture of crimson, orange and yellow as the sun began to descend.

"Well it looks like we finished everything just in time for the day. We'll call it a day and reconvene here tomorrow. Tomorrow we'll begin your real training so make sure you rest up and reserve your energy."

The following morning Momiji arrives back at the site of the forest where she and her student trained. The sun had yet to peek over the horizon. She stood against the tree waiting for her student to arrive.

Laying on his tatami bed dozing off, Tobi suddenly remembers he has training with Momiji today. He immediately jumps out of bed, cleaned himself up, got dressed and runs to the training field, seeing his sensei had already arrived.

"Sorry Momiji sensei, was I late?" He pants as he bends over to catch his breathe.

"Alright, we'll begin with basic projectiles first. We're going to be covering the following:

Single projectiles
Multiple projectiles
Advance Shape manipulated

That will should cover everything we'll need to do. So the first thing I want you to do is to gather your chakra into your throat. You may want to make the tiger handseal to facilitate your gathering of chakra. Remember how we began with gathering your katon chakra in the beginning? Do the same thing while you're moving your chakra from your core up to your throat. Once there I want you to knead your chakra and you will release a moderately large sphere of chakra. To do this you will use shape manipulation of your chakra in order to form a sphere. This is a basic shape and should be easy for you to do. You'll gather all the chakra you build up into that sphere and once you release it from your mouth it will travel along its way. I'll demonstrate."


Momiji makes the tiger hand seal and she begins to inhale through her nose. Her cheeks puff up a little before she releases a single sphere of fire from her mouth about the size of her of her body. The sphere travels until it hits a bush lighting it on fire. It causes some of the animals that hid in the bush to scurry away.

"Oh I'm so sorry little animals." Momiji apologized. "Well, do you think you can give it a try?"

Tobi shakes a bit of his hands to relax them as he recollects the training that he had done previously. Putting his hands together forming a tiger handseal, Tobi takes a deep breathe store that air in his chest and gathers his fire chakra up to his throat. With shape manipulation, he molds his fire chakra like a ball before releasing from his mouth. A sphere of fire with the size of himself, shoots forward the same path of Momiji's fireball, setting ablaze of whats left to burn.

"Hmm, hows that?"

"That was good, it looks like you have the hang of it. Now we can take it a little further. Now watch me carefully and do as I do. Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger." Momiji made the hand seals as she spoke, giving you a brief tutorial of each seal she used. She then made a ring/loop between her thumb and index finger

"Now just like before, inhale and gather your chakra upwards and then this time, blow through the hole you made with your fingers. You'll want to gather even more chakra for this, about twice the side of the one you just made" After she spoke she inhaled and blew through her fingers creating a much larger fireball which eventually dissipated after reaching mid-range.
