Honestly im not sure how to counter this jutsu advice would be appreciated.
I mean, you can easily notice the bright light of lightning under the ground and formulate a proper counter of evasion? Probably propel yourself back. That gives you a time window to formulate counters.
So this can only be counted by lightning or wind correct?
I'm gonna assume you said "countered" lol. Yes, but a F-Rank earth tech might negate one another. I wouldn't recommend fire at all, and condensed water might also prove to be well to use as long as rank allows it. Since this is focused lightning it won't likely conduct on the water.
(Raiton: Raikiri) - Lightning Release: Lightning Blade
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Short (Long if applied to a projectile weapon)
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: 80
Description: The Lightning Cutter is an enhanced and concentrated form of the Chidori with the same effects and drawbacks that is done performing the Ox → Rabbit → Monkey hand seals. According to Might Guy, it gained its name after Kakashi split a bolt of lightning with it. Because the Chidori is already powerful on its own, the Lightning Cutter requires better chakra control, which is exemplified in its appearance. The Chidori appears as simply a mass of white electrical chakra in the user's hand, while the Lightning Cutter is much more focused. Kakashi has shown different ways of forming and using the Lightning Cutter, unique to him. For example, he demonstrated the ability to imbue a projectile weapon, such as a kunai, with his Lightning Cutter, granting the technique long-range capabilities by throwing the kunai towards his target. In this instance, the kunai was capable of piercing through multiple large rocks with ease, without any loss of momentum or change in trajectory.
Note: Kakashi biographies can use the technique without hand seals.
Note: Only Kakashi biographies can apply the technique to a kunai and use it as a projectile attack.
I'll be explaining this technique as if you have a regular bio and not a kakashi bio. The user will do 3 hand seals and create a serious condensed amount of raiton which appears almost completely white. It has a serious amount of power so much though that it can cut through actual lightning making it one of the most powerful techniques in the lightning jutsu list its power is so noticable you can hear the lightning current as well as see the lightning revolve around the user due to the insane concentration. It is mainly used as a melee weapon great for close range battle, it is the type of technique a opponent does not want to get close to, it can easily be used in combo with other close combat attacks like taijutsu, or hold a sword in the other hand to always keep up to battle in close range. This technique has the ability to cut through many dense objects. In short it is very similar to chidori but in a more advanced form.
(Raiton: Raikiri Nibai Raikou Jishin) – Lightning Release: Lightning Blade Double Lightning Quake
Rank: S
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: The user performs (Raiton: Raikiri) - Lightning Release: Lightning Blade and splits it in two, covering both hands in Lightning. He will then perform a melee attack at the enemy, unleashing the powerful lightning into him.
So, this technique is very similar to the Raikiri you just did. First, you create a Raikiri (using Raikiri's handseals), and then place your other hand by your lightning-charged palm, splitting the Raikiri into two, allowing you to essentially hold two Chidori as you cut it's power in half when you cut it in half. Using this technique doesn't count as two techniques, one for Raikiri and one for this; just one jutsu for this one. This technique allows you to turn hand-based taijutsu into powerful lightning strikes with both of your hands, instead of simply having your one hand with lightning in it. Now, depending on the situation, this technique and regular Raikiri or even Chidori could be favored or the other; it's all situational. But the one thing to remember about this jutsu is that it's more like two Chidori than two Raikiri, as you have to cut it's power when you divide it among your two hands.
(Raiton: Kirin) - Lightning Release: Kirin
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Mid-Long
Chakra Cost: 70
Damage Points: 120
Description: After using a fire jutsu to heat the atmosphere and create thunderclouds in the sky, the user will use Chidori to take control of the lightning above. They can then make the lightning strike an opponent in the blink of an eye.
Note: Can only be avoided with time/space techniques or otherwise absolute defenses.
Note: Can only be used once per battle.
Note: In the turn before the use of Kirin, the user must have used at least a B-Rank, Long Range Fire (Katon) technique directed at the sky.
Note: User needs to post Chidori, meaning that in the turn Kirin is used, the user spends 2 moves.
So, one of the most powerful Raiton techniques in the series: Kirin. Of course, you must have used a fire technique to heat up the sky to create stormy conditions in order to bring down a bolt of lightning in the first place. A couple things to note about this technique: the first is that after using your fire technique, the general rule-of-thumb is that you must wait three techniques before you can use Chidori for the storm to fully form. This generally allows you to use the fire at the end of your turn, your opponent uses three jutsu, and then you can defend before using Kirin. The second thing to note is that you must use Chidori before you can use Kirin, making it cost two jutsu instead of one like Double Raikiri. However, as soon as you use Chidori, which only uses one handseals after you complete Raiton, you can begin manipulating the lightning in the clouds and bring it down very close to instantly in conjunction. And when trying to use this technique, be wary; the best way to beat it is to disrupt it, so watch out for people trying to stop you from using Kirin, or even trying to distract you to use the storm for themselves.
If you don't have the necessary rank for fire to perform Kirin then....
*Lancer turns into Dylan and spews B-Rank fire in the sky to generate the storm clouds"
Now you do, but you will still need to learn B-Rank fire to officially perform it, but at least you will be able to know the performance as well. And yes I need a good performance for this tech, it is rather advance.
