Kenjutsu which generally means "The way of the sword means any technique being performed with the use of the sword. There's not really plenty thing to say about Kenjutsu as it is self explanatory. It can be either by a Samurai or a shinobi.

Chakra flow is the flowing of chakra into a bladed weapon to increase the potency. Chakra of different natures can be flowed into the weapon to either maximize the already known effect or give a new advantage. The effect depends on the nature and amount of chakra used.

Close Quarter combat is the type of combat which takes place in short range. All the technique used are short range. Just like taijutsu, Kenjutsu also take place in short range.

I wrote that without searching. That's all I can write. I just needed to understand right?

Alright.
Kenjutsu is as you said, the way of the sword which emphasizes using a sword as an extension of your body. Kenjutsu itself falls under the broad and general way of Bukijutsu, or weapon techniques. Kenjutsu is used by both samurai, as well as shinobi, although samurai use it more, and it is the basis of their fighting style. You use a sword, as a medium for techniques meant to cut the opponent, or do damage that involves slashing. Most people choose a two handed approach to using a katana, due to the fact that they can get a lot more speed and power out of their attacks, since they are using two hands. Others choose to dual wield katana, or even triple wield (shoutout to Caliburn) their katana. Some people on the other hand, use sword techniques with a single hand to attack the opponent, while using their other hand to launch other attacks. It really depends on your own preference.
Chakra Flow, is the process of using elemental and regular chakra to increase the potency and potential of a blade or other weapon. For example, Kirabi coated a pencil with lightning chakra, and it would have potentially killed Kisame, if he hadn't avoided it. Effects of chakra flow vary from element to element. For example wind and lightning increase cutting power, while fire causes burning damage, and can cauterize wounds. Chakra flow is used extensively in kenjutsu, in order to increase the speed, power, and cutting potential of your blade, and making it more lethal.
Close Quarters combat, is not necessarily limited to close range techniques, or to taijutsu, and kenjutsu. You could use elemental jutsu in short range, although you might injure yourself. Close Quarters combat tends to have a high risk, high reward, type atmosphere. In a lot of cases, you can end a battle with a single blow, especially if using a weapon. Although, the reverse is also true for the opponent. It really depends on your own preferences, some people gain a large arsenal of close range weapons, CFS, and jutsu, and fight exclusively in close range. Now, a lot of jutsu in the taijutsu and kenjutsu list can be done with freeform, that is not using a jutsu and describing what you do in words of your own, so if you don't want to waste a jutsu slot, it might be a good ide a to use them instead of an actual technique. In addition, you can dodge a lot of kenjutsu/taijutsu freeform without using a jutsu, but not all.
Any questions?

(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.

Alright with this you use either one, or both hands (it doesent specify), to make a combination of slashes, which ends with a gigantic powerful super slash that can kill the opponent. Now make sure to describe at least 6 types of slashes in detail, as well as how they are performed. In addition, tell me how you would counter this technique please.

Kelvin listened to his sensei as he told him what to do. Forming a water sword, he moves towards the opponent, as he slashes the opponent 5 times and then one last powerful slash...
First, he starts with a thrusting, then slashing horizontally from the top, then diagonally from each side each time to form a V shape, then vertically. Kelvin then slashes horizontally with full force as he cuts through the opponent.

To counter this technique, I would simply use the Water replacement technique

Well, the water replacement might not be the best idea. This is a relatively easy technique to counter or avoid, even with simple D ranks. While, Water Replacement, counts as a substitutiom, and depending on the nature of the strikes, might make it difficult for you to reform. So try to think of another counter.

Alright, but in the future you should try to think of a counter using freeform, taijutsu, or kenjutsu. Considering this is a training on kenjutsu, and close quarters.

(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.

Now remember what I was talking about with using your sword one handed? This jutsu allows you to attack with both hands. You attack with one hand, using a few punches. You then attack them while they're dazed from the punches, and slash them with your sword. Perform it, and give me a counter to this technique.

Kelvin moves quickly towards the opponent, holding the sword in one hand. As he had held the sword in one hand, Kelvin uses the other one and gave the opponent a series of punches, while still dazed from the punch, Kelvin then finishes them off with a two slashes as he cuts them diagonally twice, forming a V shape


I could counter it with
( Konoha Kanransha ) - Leaf Ferris Wheel
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 30
Description: The user kicks the enemy into the air then kicks them again higher and jumps on their shoulders and spins the enemy into the ground
Just before the punch.. With this jutsu, I won't be coming straight, I'll kick from beneath, avoiding the punches in the first instance

( 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.

Ok, so this jutsu is a bit vague. But simply jump up and, holding your sword with one or both hands, start to spin while in mid air, and drill the blade into your opponent. Now perform and tell me what you would do if someone did this jutsu on you, how would you take advantage?

Jumping up in the air, Kelvin turns and started spinning while pointing his swords as he came down and dropped on the opponent, killing him


i would use
(Raiton: Chidori Eiso) - Lightning Release Chidori Sharp Spear
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user increases the range of their Chidori by using form manipulation to extend it into a blade up to 10 meters in length. This blade is capable of splitting into multiple additional blades upon contact with an enemy, drastically increasing the number of wounds it can inflict. Like other Chidori-related techniques, this jutsu will numb its target upon contact but unlike others, seems to focus more on having a cutting power, like a katana, than a piercing one. Because of its cutting abilities, it often seems to manifest a certain "solidity"; a tangible aspect

Kelvin holds his blade in his hand, He then jumps up high in the air up to about 5 meters above the opponent. While in the air, Kelvin grabs his sword tightly with both hands as he turns upside down as he starts to rotate in the air so fast he could barely be seen, he then, like a drill, comes down on the opponent as he uses his sword and drills the opponent.

So, to defend this kind of technique, you have to attack when he's in mid-air. A mid range attack. You can't wait till he comes down on you as you'll be at disadvantage.
He can't maneuver in the air, so I would use...

(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.

(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.

(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.
Ok dash in front of my clone, and hit him with the hilt of your sword. After doing that, while he's dazed, launch a series of rapid kicks which launch him into the air. Then, run to the place he will appear, and punch him into that tree. As he does, swing your sword and launch a red crescent shaped wave of chakra to finish him off. Now how would this jutsu interact with a B rank blast of wind?

With swift movement, kelvin dashed in front of the clone just like he had teleported. He then hit him with the hilt of his sword, making him dazed as he didn't expect it. With a series of rapid kicks, Kelvin hit the clone up in the air. Waiting for him where he would land, he then punches him into a nearby tree. As he had landed, Kelvin focused chakra in his sword as he swing it and unleashes a red crescent shaped wave of chakra at him.

I think this jutsu can be used to evade B Rank wind. Normally, B Rank air techniques are always massive in size. But I think the slash can neutralize a portion which can be passed through therefore evading it. Literally passing through the wind jutsu

Well the Kenjutsu strike would be weak to elemental ninjutsu, so the B rank wind jutsu would just go through it, slightly weakened.

(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.

Concentrate raiton chakra into your sword, using the principles of chakra flow. Flow the chakra through the sword, and increase its offensive capabilities to the point that it can cut through steal. If you manage to cut your opponent while your sword is clad in a chidori, then you will numb and paralyze the part of the body you cut so that the opponent can't move. Pretty self explanatory and simple, but a really cool jutsu nonetheless!

(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.

Concentrate chakra into your sword so that it glows blue, and jump into the air above your opponent. Begin to spin at such a rapid rate, that you create what appears to be a pale blue circle above your opponent, then allow gravity to pull you back down to earth as you cut through the opponent. Give me two disadvantages to this jutsu.

Bringing out his sword, he kneads chakra as he changes it into raiton chakra. After this, he channels it through his hand into the sword. Kelvin then uses the chakra and makes the blade sharper it could cut through steel.


Focusing chakra as he had done earlier. But this time, it was raw, Kelvin flowed it to his blade through his hands. The sword then began to glow blue. Jumping into the air above the opponent as he begins to spin at a fast rate, it formed a pale blue circle above the opponent. Then, he let gravity pull him down upon the opponent, killing him.


- needs chakra
- Once you are in air, you wouldn't be able to control yourself. A quick dash to the side, and you just have to look at your opponent as he strikes a pose for you.

Yup, good. Another disadvantage could be that whilst you're at a certain point in your spin you are in a bad position. You're in the air, and thus unable to dodge, also at that point you could be facing upwards and unable to see the opponent.

( 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

Ok, now with this jutsu you can use you can counter unfocused lightning of A rank and below using just your sword. Focus chakra into the blade, and stab it into the ground as a make-shift lightning rod. Just remember that this only works on unfocused lightning like Nagashi..it won't work on something like chidori sharp spear or the chidori needles.
