*Godot strolls onto the training grounds, sipping from a coffee mug. Trailing behind him are six others who don't look too thrilled to be there.*

So it's Kenjutsu this time around. Before we get to the good part i have a little quiz for you. What is Kenjutsu and who are some noteworthy users of the sword?

Kenjutsu also known as Sword techniques pertains to techniques that entail the use of swords, whether the users are shinobis or samurais. Kenjutsu can be used in combination with taijutsu, ninjutsu, fūinjutsu, chakra flow and even genjutsu in order to achieve more devastating techniques.
The entire military might of the lone samurai nation of the Land of Iron, have so-far all been depicted as practitioners of kenjutsu. Among the shinobi nations, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are particularly well known as kenjutsu practitioners.
Noteable Kenjutsu users are:
1. Samurais.
2. Land of Iron villagers.
3. Seven swordsmen of the mist.
Well everyone can carry a sword and use it but those mentioned are known for it and are based on it.

Don't forget about the Cloud ninja who are adept with the sword, especially Kirabi with his 7 sword style. Alright, enough of that. Now we move on the good part. You already know Pein and our methods so there's no need for introductions. First technique is a wildcard. Just attack the enemy with a series of slashed with your sword, finishing with a debilitating strike most likely aimed for a vital point. Dice em good.

*sends a Pein at you*

(Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: With this technique, the user will make a sequence of slashes with their sword and finishes with a powerful final slash dealing liberal damage to their enemy.

Noticing the Pein advancing at me, I simply grinned as I grabbed the katanas strapped to my back. Immediately, I dash towards the Pein in a blink of an eye and as I got into short range with the Pein, I quickly start to deliver several fatal slashes on the Pein with the katanas on my hand and after a series of fatal katana slashes, I finish off the Pein with a powerful vertical slash which cuts the Pein into two equal halves.

*Pein easily dodges all of your slashes*

Ha...! You'll never get him with such sloppy swordsmanship. Give it another try.

OOC: Put more detail into your reply. Like what direction the slashes are coming from and where they are aimed. I should be able to visualize exactly what you're doing.

Ooc: Ok then, time to put in more effort.

As I saw the way the pein easily dodges my attacks, I got annoyed, I wanted to give up at first but then I determined within myself to leave slash marks on the pein no matter what it would cost me. Then once again, I grapped my katanas, this time, grapping it tighter than before, I then dash towards the pein and as I got into short range with the pein, I quickly swing my right and left hands with katanas on then to the respective sides(right and left), I then with brute force and strength drag my hands to the center(to the pein who is at the center) delivering fatal slashes on the pein from the right and left. I then quickly retract my hand and start a sword barrage on the pein, slashing him from the right and left with the katanas on my hand continously with immense speed and brute strength, leaving the pein defenseless, hopeless and battered after a series of right and left slashes, I quickly squat slightly and launch myself into mid-air and while in mid-air, I again push my hands to their respective sides and as I come back to the ground, I draw my hands back to the center in such a way that both the katanas on my right and left hands would slice off the Pein's head like a pair of scissors to deliver a final scissors-like fatal slash that beheads the Pein.

Excellent work. I hope you've warmed up because now we'll be practicing sets of three. The first is quite straitforward: Deliver three punches to your enemy before slashing them twice with your blade. A sword works but kunai are just as good. Remember, eye of the tiger!

*sends a Pein at you*

(Ikari Nomikomu no Jutsu) - Fury Swallow Technique
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.

Next, just slash your enemy with a tanto several times as you spin. You know...a short sword, flat at the top...Anbu like Sai carry them. Obviously it's useful as a 360 degree attack capable of hitting enemies all around you. Anyway, take this if you want to live!

*tosses you a tanto as two Peins run at you from both sides*

( Enjin Ranbu ) - Circular Wild Dance
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user spins with his tantō, hitting the target several times.

Here's a technique done in midair. Once you're above an enemy, point your sword downward and drive the blade into them. Aiming for the head could ensure a fatal blow. Drop in an surprise him.

*points to a Pein digging a large hole, his grave apparently*

( Rakkasui ) - Falling Water
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user will drop down upon the opponent from mid air pointing their sword downwards and drilling it down into the opponent.

Seeing the pein advancing towards me, I quickly breath deeply and wait for the pein to get close enough to me. As the pein entered short range with me, I quickly deliver three(3) punches, one on his face, one on his heart and the last on his stomach. I then quickly grab the katana strapped to my back and use it to deliver two slashes on the pein, one diagonally inwards from the left and the other diagonally inwards from the right to finish off the pein.

Seeing the tanto tossed at me by my sensei, I quickly grab it after which I noticed the two peins coming at me from two different opposite directions. I quickly braced myself and then as the peins get into close range with me, I quickly tip toed a little after which I stretch the tanto on my hands to the left and to the right. I then begin to spin continously about a fixed position to slash the peins severely as they got close enough to me and deal damage on them.

As I noticed the pein digging the ground apparently his grave, I approach him slowly and silently from the back and as I got into close range with the pein, I quickly jump upwards and then point my katana downwards to the pein after which I then drop down on the pein, drilling through his head with the katana in my hand.

Well done. Now i want you to dash in front of your enemy and strike them with your sword handle. Follow up with several kicks to launch the enemy into the air. As he is falling and nearing the ground, dash over to to his position and deliver a powerful punch sending him crashing into an obstacle like a tree or boulder. A rather unorthodox technique but good for dispatching an enemy not worth dirtying your blade on. Take him out.

*point to a Pein coming at you with a sword*

(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.

For this one begin by channel chakra into your sword. After running toward your enemy and slashing them into the air, appear above them and deliver a strong piercing thrust downward that would impale the enemy on the ground. Another effective move similar to another you performed earlier. Show him real pain.

*sends a Pein at you, unarmed but furious*

(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.

Hearing my sensei speak, I swiftly turn to the pein coming at me with a sword after which I close my eyes to create an imagination of how I would perform the technique in my mind and then after a few seconds, I open up my eyes and I grab my katana then immediately, I bolt towards the pein, and as I got into close range with him, I use the handle of my katana to first hit him then I begin to kick him with both my legs starting from his leg upwards, kicking his legs up to his waist, up to his chest and finally I deliver the last kick to his chin which launches the pein up then I again bolt upwards to reach above the pein and with brute strength, I deliver a final blow on the pein which launches him downwards to hit a nearby rock and finish him off.

I then land back on the ground after ending the pein and I hear my sensei once again then I immediately turn to gaze at the unharmed pein then I close my eyes once again to visualize how I would perform the technique. Seconds later, I open my eyes and quickly begin to focus on my raw chakra after which I channel my raw chakra into my katana and dash towards the pein and as I enter the appropriate range with the pein, I quickly slash the pein upwards with my chakra infused left sword to launch the pein upwards. Then I immediately appear above the pein in mid-air and deliver a drilling slash on the pein with my chakra infused right sword to push the pein back to the ground to finish him off.

Superb, moving on. This is the only projectile technique you'll get. Simply make a crescent shaped slash at your enemy and release a red chakra wave from the blade. And yes, it cuts like an actual blade. Take your pick.

*points to a line-up of Peins looking very nervous*

(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.

Now, using Chidori current, flow electricity through your blade to greatly improve its cutting ability and numb the body of whoever is cut. If you don't know that jutsu, skip this. You don't need to post it or anything like that. Give him a shocking end.

*sends a Pein at you wielding a sword*

(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.

After listening to my sensei, I turn to face the queue then with a big grin on my face, I grab hold of my katana and with pure concentration and brute force, I swing the katana in my hand in an arc in order to emit arc-shaped red chakra waves from my katana that advances towards the queue and slash the pein at the front of the line, immediately cutting the pein into two and ending its existence.

After ending the pein, my sensei begins to talk again and I listen attentively after which my sensei controls the second pein in line to grab a sword and run towards me. In reaction, with my katana still in my hand, I begin to build up my raiton chakra and after sparking it up, I channel it from my body to the katana in my hand to increase the dexterity and sharpness of the katana and as the pein got inside the appropriate range, I deliver an horizontal slash as I glide forward, slashing the pein's sword into two and successfully bisecting the pein.

Nicely done. This is it, the end of the line. Just two moves left. First, channel chakra into your sword until it becomes visible on the blade. Then leap into the air and spin rapidly like a top. Your blade should form a circle as you spin and cut through your enemy. Cut him down.

*points to a Pein taunting you*

(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.

Finally, if you are being shocked by an unfocused lightning technique, by piercing the ground with the tip of your sword you can disperse the lightning through the ground and nullify its effects. There's only one way to test this you know? ;)

*places a hand on your shoulder with a devilish grin*

Chidori Nagashi!


Rank: A
Type: Offense/Defence
Range: Short (Mid if channeled through a medium)
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A (+10 if used to boost weapon damage)
Description: This jutsu allows the user to generate non-focused electricity from their body. It can be used as an omnidirectional attack or be channeled through weapons, the ground or other conductive mediums. Because the electricity isn't focused, it doesn't kill on contact, instead it has great numbing and paralyzing effects. To channel Nagashi through a medium, the user needs to focus the technique into one of his hands which will then be put in contact with the medium and can only choose to either do a widespread attack throughout his whole body or to channel it into something; he cannot achieve both usages at the same time. Despite not having much destructive or damaging properties, Nagashi can be used to destroy low rank earthen and wooden structures and even negate chakra on the ground to stop high ranked earth and wood techniques. It has also been noted that Lightning Specialists that have mastered Lightning to the highest degree can resist total paralyzation, although they still feel the pain and numbing effects.
Note: Paralyzation lasts 1 turn if sucessful but is ineffective against bios who have a primary Lightning Specialty


( Kenjutsu: Hirashin ) - Sword Technique: Lightning Rod
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user by use of a sword can use it as a rod to attract lightning currents that are channeled into the user from opponents attacks and by pointing the tip of the blade into the ground the user is then able to dispel the lightning charge nullifing the effects of paralysis. However this only works on free flowing lightning based techniques such as the Chidori current and not on focused lightning based techniques

After listening to my sensei, I put on a joyous smile, knowing the training was almost over. I then turn my attention to the pein taunting me and with a mind full of determination, I begin to gather and muster up my raw chakra after a short while, I channel it into the katana in my hand in a large amount such that my katana begins to glow blue I then proceeds further to leap up into mid-air and begin to spin rapidly with my katana to form a circle that slashes the pein brutally and severely.

After anhilating the pein, I hear my sensei for the last time and as I hear my sensei's final words, I sigh oh boy as the unfocused lightning from my sensei's body runs through my veins almost driving me mad and stunning me(on normal basis it shouldn't since lightning is my secondary specialty but anyways) but with my last strenght, I struggle to pierce the ground with my katana in order to channel the lightning flowing in my body through my katana and into the ground to neutralize the lightning attack.
