Although the samurai of the Land of Iron are perhaps best known for their swordsmanship with a katana (kenjutsu), kyūjutsu was actually considered a more vital skill for a significant portion of Ninja World War history. Later on, the traditional martial art got introduced with ninjutsu and chakra usage. That's when bow wielding ninjas started combining archery with their ninjutsu creating very useful and powerful techniques. Sogeki Geijutsu is practiced in many different ninja academies, some of which descend from military shooting and others that descend from ceremonial or contemplative practice. Therefore, the emphasis is different. Some emphasize aesthetics and others efficiency. Contemplative academies teach the form as a meditation in action. In certain academies, to shoot correctly will result inevitably in hitting the desired target. For this a phrase seisha hicchū, "true shooting, certain hitting", is used. According to the Nippon Kyudo Federation (World Government of Archery) the supreme goal of kyudo is the state of shin-zen-bi, roughly "truth-goodness-beauty", which can be approximated as: when archers shoot correctly (i.e. truthfully) with virtuous spirit and attitude toward all persons and all things which relate to kyudo (i.e. with goodness), beautiful shooting is realized naturally. A master sniper will gain increased tracking speeds to help them keep up with faster targets. This was achieved by being so used to tracking moving targets throughout the years.Description on the Abilities and Inner Workings of the Style: The whole style mainly revolves around the infusion of chakra into arrows, create arrows out of a certain elemental/pure affinity or the usage of Ninjutsu and Kyūjutsu to create combinations.Additional effects and Restrictions: - A Master Sniper will gain increased tracking speeds to help them keep up with faster targets.- The arrows used in Sniper Arts travel at the speed of a regular arrow unless enhanced by certain techniques.[SPOILER](Sogeki Geijutsu: Kyougaku!) - Sniper Arts: Surprise!Type: AttackRank: B Range: Short - LongChakra Cost: 20Damage: N/ADescription: This technique is a variation of the Shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu with the slight twist being arrows instead of Shuriken. The user will create copies of a single physical or chakra based arrow within range. Notes:- Requires a Bow- Must be taught by Mathias(Sogeki Geijutsu: Mohaya yu-bekarazu touhou, Mohaya yu-bekarazu!) - Sniper Arts: Now you see me, now you don't!Type: AttackRank: B Range: Short - LongChakra Cost: 25Damage: 40Description: The user will channel his earth chakra into the ground through his feet. He then will cause the earth to start shifting at fast speeds in a zig-zag manner. The user will make a full "Z", zig-zag shifting left/right/left. Each shift travels the distance of 5 yards. So the user will go 5 yards forward/towards the left, 5 forward/towards the right, and so on. From the earth shifting a small cloud of dust will rise from the ground big enough to conceal the users body from the neck down as he shifts.(A means to confuse the opponent by blocking his view, but not entirely.) As the earth is shifting, the user will be shooting an explosively tagged arrow at great speeds in each shift he performs (so three) causing the arrows to reach the target from different angles 5 yards apart. Speed wise, the arrows are faster than throwing a regular kunai, so it will reach the target faster than normal, giving the target less time to react. Due to the dust cloud, the opponent won't be able to clearly see the user and will get confused from the zig-zag shifting the earth is causing. Due to the great field of vision and accuracy a sniper has, he will have no problem accurately hitting his desired target. This whole process is performed in a fast and swift motion.Note: Requires the use of a Bow.Note: Can be used three times per battle.Note: Must be taught by Mathias.(Sogeki Geijutsu: Kouseitan'i Ojigi-Shukun) - Sniper Arts: Elemental Bowmaster Type: AttackRank: BRange: Short - LongChakra Cost: 25Damage: 40Description: Through the art of Kyūjutsu, the user will concentrate his chakra into a specific elemental type. Using shape manipulation, the user will form an arrow completely made up of the selected element. Once the arrow is shot, the user can choose to split the arrow into three smaller versions to pierce multiple areas of the selected target. With the use of a single hand seal, the user can turn the arrow into a small blast to defend against certain techniques depending on their size. (Ex. Small/Medium sized fireballs, water shots, mud shots, wind blades etc.)Wind - If the extra hand seal is used, the wind arrow will turn into a small gust of wind.Lighting - If the extra hand seal is used, the lighting arrow will turn into a small crescent shaped blade that can cut through solid rock.Water - If the extra hand seal is used, the water arrow will turn into a small slash of water big enough to evaporate small/fire balls/blasts.Fire - If the extra hand seal is used, the fire arrow will turn into a small sized blast of fire hot enough to evaporate small scaled water techniques.Earth - If the extra hand seal is used, the earth arrow will turn into a small rounded shield that can be used to block certain techniques.Note: Requires the use of a Bow.Note: Can be used three times Note: If the user chooses to multiply the arrows he can not perform the hand seal to convert them into their other forms and vice versa.Note: Must be taught by Mathias(Sogeki Geijutsu: Kakutou Ya Dagekinami) - Sniper Arts: Grappling Arrow Shockwave Type: Supplementary/AttackRank: B Range: Short - LongChakra Cost: 25Damage: 40Description: While airborne, the user will shoot an arrow at great speeds towards the ground. The arrow is attached to a very strong chakra string. The string is attached to the bow's grip so that once the arrow makes contact with the ground, it can reel in the user to avoid aerial techniques or simply to get back into the ground faster. As the user is coming down with great force, he charges earth chakra into his feet. Once his feet make contact with the ground, a 360 degree wave of earth (B-Ranked) will be made and spread out in the form of a shockwave. This is due to the intensive landing and earth chakra concentration when stomping/landing on the ground. The user will receive no harm to his feet when landing at such speed, the reason being because while landing, the user softened the earth while stomping the ground and creating the shockwave, and thus landing on a pillow of earth as the shockwave forms. This technique does not necessarily have to be used while being airborne, the user can choose to be reel'd into other objects or even gain height by hooking onto flying objects.(Not kunais or anything of that sort. More like stabbing through a summoning, or maybe even a flying piece of earth etc..)Note: Requires the use of a Bow.Note: Can be used three times per battle.Note: When used to gain height, the shockwave will not form unless the user stomps/lands onto the ground. Note: Must be taught by Mathias.(Sogeki Geijutsu: Kyougaku Atakku!) - Sniper Arts: Surprise Attack!Type: AttackRank: A Range: Short - LongChakra Cost: 30Damage: 60Description: Before a solid/chakra based arrow is released from their bow, the user will further focus chakra throughout it highly compressing it. This will leave the projectile unstable, ready to detonate within the command of the user, having the blast reach anything within a short range radius of the arrow.Notes:- Requires a Bow- Can be used five times per battle- Must be taught by Mathias(Sogeki Geijutsu: Niji Danmaku) - Sniper Arts: Rainbow BarrageType: AttackRank: SRange: Short - LongChakra Cost: 40Damage Points: 80 Description: The user imbues large amounts of chakra into his bow which manifests a web-like crosshair in front. The user will then pull back the string of the bow as if he were about to shoot. However he will keep his hand at a stand still pulling back the string as he channels elemental chakra into the crosshair.(Water,Wind,Fire,Lighting) Once the element is chosen, the user will release up to 100 arrow shaped blasts of the selected element. Once all 100 arrows are released the chakra that was used to create the web-like crosshair will combine together creating one big shaped arrow. This is when the user will actually let go of the string of his bow and release that last powerful elemental arrow. Note: Can only be used twice per battleNote: Requires the use of a bowNote: Pure chakra can also be used without having to choose an elementNote: Earth chakra will not be able to be channeled into the crosshair due to the weight that it would cause to shoot the last arrow. Note: No S-Ranked or above of the selected element used for one turn after use Note: No Sniper Art techniques for the next turnNote: Must be taught by Mathias[/SPOILER][/QUOTE]
