Okay, well taijutsu translates roughly to body technique. Inside the Narutoverse it's usually used to describe any physical striking or blocking techniques that normally don't use chakra. Thanks to this taijutsu is actually a lot faster than ninjutsu to execute. Making it a useful thing to master for any ninja who likes to engage in short ranges. There are multiple disciplines and styles of martial arts displayed in the Narutoverse however having read the jutsu list here it seems we will be mostly focusing on strong fist, the style primarily used by Konoha shinobi, notably Gai and Lee. Strong fist as a style seems to be very reminiscent of Tae Kwon Do type kicking attacks combined with punching styles seen in Karate also. It's quite a fast albeit simple style that doesn't have many parry and counter type attacks but instead seems to focus on overwhelming an opponent once an opening presents itself, the striking techniques are very heavy powerful blows which probably earned the style the name of strong fist, it doesn't focus on vital locations very much in regards to crippling or weakening opponents instead it seems mostly about just beating them down. It's essentially the exact opposite of the Hyuuga's gentle fist in a lot of ways, though none of this detracts from it's incredibly useful nature in battle.

No questions sensei, I actually found and read that text in the Konoha library where I was born. Master Kaguya's thoughts on Taijutsu are indeed enlightening.

Orochimaru said, glad that entering that section of the library had proved beneficial.

"Alright, now I want you to do 1,000 push ups while explaining to me what the Eight Gates are indepth."

 

[Jhin]

"Alright, now I want you to do 1,000 push ups while explaining to me what the Eight Gates are indepth."

Orochimaru would sigh internally at the prospect of doing push ups. It seemed so pointless to work on this weak physical shell to him after all, there were no doubt more productive ways to gain power than just through hard work. Physical work was far more suited to Jiraiya or that beastly Tsunade. But Orochimaru would not grumble following his sensei's instructions. For it would be foolish to disobey his sensei's instructions. While performing the push ups Orochimaru would explain what he knew of the eight internal gates.

The eight gates refer to a specific eight tenketsu within everyone's body. These tenketsu naturally inhibit the flow of chakra around ones body to limit at any one time how much can be accessed by a ninja, usually to preserve their physical form as the excess chakra would quite easily vaporize a human being should they be allowed to access it all at once. However with extreme training one can gain access to these gates, opening them and allowing chakra to flow around the body in far greater amounts though at the cost of tremendous damage to their physical form. Those who open the final gate gain incredible power far beyond that of most kage, however they will die almost without fail once the eighth gate has been opened.

Orochimaru would listen to his sensei and feel slightly concerned that this perfect taijutsu technique was in fact some perverted joke technique. But he would perform it nonetheless. Charging behind the sensei's clone Orochimaru would make the tiger handseal before crouching down low and ramming his tiger handseal in to the enemy clones rectum, sending the clone flying away with a comical yelping.

As a boy who's goal is to take over the bodies of countless victims by entering them with my white snake form. As the boy who one day dreams to have an extendable tongue to choke people, and as the boy who currently vomits snakes from inside his body who have swords inside their bodies. I just have to say, that technique is pretty gay.

(Konoha Reppū) - Leaf Gale
Rank: D
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points:20
Description: This technique is a good example of how even simple taijutsu can become a pre-eminently destructive, lethal technique. The attack is a simple rear spinning low kick, but a strong enough user can send a large adult flying as if they weighed nothing. The goal is to throw the enemy off balance, and deal damage to the lower half of their body.

This is a simple rear spinning low kick. You'll bend your legs to get down while extending your dominant leg and you'll spin kick your opponent's legs to take him out of balance and make him fall on the ground.

(Konoha Senpū) - Leaf Hurricane
Rank: D
Type: Attack
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points: 20
Description: A taijutsu where one launches a succession of high kicks and low kicks. Firstly, the opponent's evasion margin is restrained upon seeing the high kick, thus augmenting the chances for the low kick to hit the mark connecting to the rib cage area. So originally the high kick is little more than a feint.

This is a simple low/high kicks into the opponent. You'll stand infront of the target, bring up your dominant leg and land a kick into the opponent's head then chest. Tell me how would you like to train too.

The first is just a basic punch. It can be varied to be a hook a straight a jab an overhand or any other variant of punches. Making it decidedly versatile. The second is a flying kick. Pretty simple but can leave you considerably exposed while delivering it. The third is a crouching spin kick aimed to sweep the leg of your opponent and take them down quickly. Third is essentially a series of varied kicks to the midsection or the head. I would like to use geets training method where you post the moves. I explained them to the best of my knowledge you can correct anything I get wrong and add some notes of your own.

Orochimaru would listen to his sensei instructions. Looking at the size of the giant dog it seems a foolish task but he would abide by it nonetheless. Deciding to combine all three techniques orochimaru would charge head long at the dog bending low and coiling himself on the last step before springing forward slamming in to the front of the dogs right leading leg. Hitting just above the knee cap region in an attempt to hyper extend the leg. Grasping the fur tightly orochimaru would climb up the dog grasping it's fur as he did. Leaping up beside it's head and slapping it directly in the eyeball while kicking off the dog. Combining the slap momentum to allow him to spin and deliver a kick using his right leg. Kicking the dog in the snout as he sailed backwards.

(Konoha Shōfū) – Leaf Rising Wind
Rank: C
Type: Attack

Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 30
Description: This technique uses the entire body as a spring, by amassing power through taking a posture where the back of the body falls down. With this powerful taijutsu, the user kicks just above the head. Because the power of the kick from the ground is instantly converted into a blow, the enemy hit with this attack will be launched high into the sky.

Simple. This is an upward kick with your dominant leg done through springing your body up from the ground and lifting your dominant leg up to deliver the strike. As your dominant leg is doing the upward kick, your upper body leans back and kinka doing a vertical split. Just give me your opinion on it.

Alright, a straightfoward thrust into the air lift into the air. Make a combo attack on my clone with Leaf rising wind and upwards attacking palm for me.

I'm a big fan of leaf rising wind. I think it's a quick and useful technique and can counter a lot of other taijutsu aimed for the upper body.

A way to use a downwards thrust would be leaping above an opponent or to an elevated position and striking downwards ideally towards the top of the abdomen or chest cavity where the ribs meet the throat.

Orochimaru would look at the clone of his sensei, preparing his attack. Charging forwards towards the clone he would feint as though he was going to deliver a powerful left handed punch, however upon reaching the target location with his left arm pulled back he would instead drop his entire body weight backwards, lifting his right leg and using the power of his soften body modification to extend the length of his leg delivering a powerful kick to his opponents abdomen using his right leg as he dropped backwards using his momentum in a spring like motion. With the kick delivered he would push off his left hand launching himself airborne and opening his right palm thrusting it forwards striking just under the ribs in an attempt to knock the air out of the clone painfully.

Because it's easily combined with other jutsu that dont require handseals? As for the shoulder question it can be good and bad it's bad because you engage so close its hard to deal with a shot aimed at the torso by dodging. It's good because you can conceal your hands from the opponent allowing a sneaky jutsu. The knees are pretty simple no comments on them. I'm sure I have it down pat.

(Kage Buyō) - Shadow of the Dancing Leaf
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points: 5
Description: A technique where one follows the opponent, closely matching his or her body's movement, just like a leaf that dances in the air is followed by its shadow. The technique is usually preceded by a swift upper kick that will launch the target into the air. It is mainly used to position an opponent into a vulnerable aerial position. This move by itself is harmless, but it is usable as a stepping stone for a great many powerful techniques like Front Lotus and the Lion Combo. That said, it also has a rather high degree of difficulty.

Alright, this is a weird one. You follow your opponent. Once you got close enough (from behind?) you'll perform a sweet upper kick that'll launch him into the air. I guess this is a combo starter right?

(Konoha Daisenpū) - Leaf Great Whirlwind

Alright, you can use this after the shadow of the dancing leaf. Kick my dummy and low kick and middle kick and high kick then heel drop him into the ground.

I get the first two no problem. First one is best used following the leaf rising kick I learned earlier. Same for shadow of the dancing leaf. It's a bit of a combo continuation. Allows you to follow a distant opponent after kicking them. It's that thing Sasuke did in the chunin exam fight.

Combining all the techniques he was being shown at once. Orochimaru would leap at the dummy dealing three body blows with his left and right fists, two with the left. Following with a right uppercut and a front kick with the left leg to the dummies knee joint. Then with one more body blow uppercut and a heavy kick from a low angle the dummy was sent flying. Leaping after it Orochimaru would follow it's movements placing himself behind it with shadow of the dancing leaf, before delivering a powerful trio of spinning kicks in the air like a triple lions barrage. Finishing the combo with the spinning momentum still intact he would grab the dummy and slam it in to the earth with a powerful peregrine falcon drop.

(Shishi Rendan) - Lions Barrage
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points: 30
Description: A variant technique of the Front Lotus, It is an ultra-fast combo attack that requires an advanced physical condition and a certain knack for it. The opponent is first kicked into the air and shadowed with the Shadow of the Dancing Leaf. Upon inflicting a blow, one takes advantage of said opponent's counterattack to spin around and rise again for further assaults. Since the fall is increased in velocity with each blow, the damage when one is eventually struck to the ground is inconceivable. All variations end with the opponent being thrown to the ground and kicked in the chest.

Alright, this requires the shadow of the dancing leaf that you just learned. You need your opponent in the air too. All you're doing with this is inflicting punches on your enemy as you're descending. And you'll end it with a punch to the chest.
