[Honō Mako]

Honō Clan Bukijutsu NAME: Yōton: Tokeru ha [Lava Release: Melting Blade] RANK: B. CHAKRA USAGE: Medium [Low Drain] CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu ELEMENT: Yōton HANDSEALS: 0 REQUIREMENT: Chakra Reactive Blade DESCRIPTION: This jutsu requires a chakra reactive blade that has been created specifically for use with Yōton, a chakra conductive weapon simply won't suffice. Once that condition is met the weapon's blade can be covered in a thin, yet very hot, layer of lava allowing the blade to easily slice through flesh, rock, and even metal like a hot knife through butter. It cannot cut through other Chakra enhanced blades, and any cuts caused by this weapon to flesh are instantly cauterized by the lava's intense heat. Even if the blade misses the intense heat of the lava can burn opponents if they are close enough. Additionally, just like all lava jutsu, Honō are immune to the burns from their own lava but not the burns that might be caused by another Honō's lava.
