You're pretty much spot on. Smoke is fairly intangible and doesn't have much strength behind it. It can be used as a distraction, or in a powerful support role, and in some cases the attacks themselves can be pretty devastating. Sometimes its intangibility can be used to your benefit, and you will see that in some techniques. Moreover, its become closer to an actual element than ninjutsu with introduction of the ability to actually turn our body into smoke as well as its strength to fire. (Weak to wind and earth. Neutral to the others but keep interactions in mind. Water will actually interact with it but lightning will probably just pass through it so that can work to your advantage or against it. You will learn....the meaning of 420 because we are performing in 5 minutes. Get your butt on stage. 0_0Ludger somehow finds himself in an urban city as well. He leans back on a building to wait for his Sensei to get a better understanding of this ability. 420? He thought. What does that mean? Confused at the second part of the question, Ludger looks at his Sensei in bewilderment with his hands crossed and head tilted. After a long moment....Ludger focuses on what he knew of the art. "Well not much. Its something intangible unless you focus your chakra so that it can interact with solid objects, trees, animals, people etc. Smoke is something we regular ninja use such as with bombs to either escape or give us an advantage in battle by sneaking up on the target, assuming you know where they are. It can be used to obscure a person's vision or in dangerous cases to asphyxiate. It can be released and manipulated through mediums such as gas masks, launchers, and in rare cases the body.
Ragna stood behind a curtain shifting as he went through the dance number in his own mind, that was when Ragna saw his students obviously slightly confused and overwhelmed by the situation. Ragna did not like to show kindness but come on, look at those faces. Ragna tapped on the shoulder of his hot and sexy assistant and ordered her to dance with the two. She agreed, however, as she got closer to the duo she had a sudden case of post traumatic stress syndrome as Adam resembled a puppy she had just buried. In a frenzy she took out a knife and repeatedly stabbed the clone of smoke. It would have only taken one stab, but she was in such a frenzy that she performed over 20 stabs and 5 different emotions within the timeframe of a second. It was a stroke of luck because she had no idea which one was the clone, and which one was the human performer. Before the clone could even disperse she ran off the stage crying in a fit. Ragna watched stunned for a few seconds and then began quickly drawing a sign. It read MULTI SMOKE CLONE JUTSU + 5 -> CLOUD DISPERSED. If read for understanding, it was telling Adam to use the cloud of smoke to create 5 more clones from the cloud of smoke. Ragna began writing another sign as he ran out in front of the audience and nailed a cheap sign to the stage that read(Wiki says its a KG lol So technically I have two....Well the body one lol Does that make me Adam Iburi of the Iburi clan? xD Yes my name is Adam, deal with it. >_>)"Great" he thought. Ludger keeps in mind of the lightning interaction. If it passes through his smoke while he is tangible, it could prove fatal. "You will learn....the meaning of 420 because we are performing in 5 minutes. Get your butt on stage. 0_0" As these words pass through his ears, Ludger, stunned, replies with a "huh?" Dance? The only dance he knew was the fighting kind. Ludger was losing his cool, trying to find the smoke launcher to begin as he finished looking through the note cards and throwing them behind him. He just didn't expect he would be thrown out on the spot like that. Fitting the launcher on his right arm after putting the ammo inside, Ludger focuses his chakra into the canister before aiming at the ground in front of him, just several feet away from him. On impact, the canister explodes and releases the smoke. Ludger then takes hold of the smoke infused with his chakra and shapes it, solidifying it, while also giving it the appearance of himself. He turns to his Sensei, all nervous and says to him, "Uh am I really supposed to "dance" with my clone or are you going to send someone my way?". The clone and the original look at Ragna with such innocence that it is almost hard to not throw them a bone.
