Kaede's wind jutsu had managed to connect with some of the crows that had been coming his way for the most part his justu had been enough to put off another attack for now as some of them puffs like they were clones, Kaede wasn't exactly sure what they were, but assumed they were puppets like the two large ones behind him his wolves were distracting. Now facing the large puppets which were about the size of houses, they would be quite intimidating for your average person to look at, but when an experienced shinobi like Kaede, ugly puppets were the least of his concerns, he was more bothered what these puppets were capable of doing.

As Kaede looked them over once more the mechanical amalgamations looked like a collection of dollfaces and a massive main head that looked like upturned crows, something then triggered in his memory about a certain former Kumogakure ninja using something like this. This made the puppets before Kaede even more dangerous to deal with and had to be careful. A certain name was coming to Kaede's mind Akio, was the man's name a former council member. However, Kaede could not confirm if this was true as the puppet master was not in eye view. Attacks came from the puppets as they tried to hit his wolves with shiny blades covered in poison of some kind and blades from the side of the puppets as the wolves avoided them for the most part, but clearly could not get close to the puppets like this. Yoshitaka then used an earth jutsu they attempt to keep the puppets at bay, this would give Kaede the chance to react as two other puppets came from the crow's mouth to help the other escape. Gaara the tracking wolf out of them had caught the scent of something, most likely the puppet master, so with that the two wolves headed out to find the puppet master. Gaara leads Ria the other wolf.

Kaede himself smiled as he didn't think he would be summoning the wolf king like this it had been a while, but considering the massive puppets before him he didn't want this dragging out longer than it needed to be as the puppets were dangerous. Kaede would then form five hand seals to perform the summoning justu once again before slamming his hands on the ground before him. With a large puff of smoke, the wolf king Don'yokuna appeared. The wolf was large 30 feet high. Kaede didn't exactly want to summon the wolf king, but considering the foe and the puppets it was likely the best choice. The wolf welded the legendary blade Greatsword of Artorias within its massive jaws. Even so, he was able to speak from the corner of its mouth.

"Was this really needed Kaede, if so then I will be of assistance to you where I can. After speaking the wolf king would lower himself slightly so that Kaede could climb onto his back. This would allow Kaede once he had reached the wolf king's spine to meditate on his back. For now, the wolf king would simply aim a strong swing of the massive great sword while channelling chakra into it at the same time at the puppets likely still breaking free from the earh jutsu. Then a torrent of wind would come from his swing. The wind released from the attack creates a tornado-like tunnel, and is capable of tearing the target to shreds from the wind pressure alone as he aimed it for the puppets.

[Skills/Traits In-Usage]:


Incredible Chakra Reserves

Kaede was not born into a powerful clan. He has no special Kekkai Genkai, no family Hijutsu, or anything of the nature. He was, however, gifted with a wealth of chakra. Though it is uncertain just how much he is fully capable of, as he does not commonly use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, it is painfully obvious he has reserves capable of far outlasting the typical shinobi. When he combines his natural reserves with that of Nature based Chakra, he is capable of using multiple Senpo Arts back to back without showing signs of fatigue.

Inhuman Stamina

Many believe Kaede when he says that he was raised by wolves. And though this is due to many things, one very noticeable attribute he has to the creatures is his immeasurable stamina. Though Kaede will sweat and fatigue like everyone, he seems to have no off switch when it comes to just how far he is able to push himself. He claims it’s from "running with the wolves” so to speak, but this might not be far from the truth. One grand testament to this trait is that in his youth, Kaede would quite literally run for days on end for his training. When he first became a Genin, his Jounin sensei told him and his teammates to run until they no longer could. Though all three of them managed to run for hours on end, Kaede took the challenge quite literally. At the young age of only eleven, the boy managed to continue running for nearly three full days before he finally exhausted himself.

Genius Among Geniuses

Kaede’s mind is an incredible thing. He has the perception and intelligence to understand almost everything he touches, and if he can’t figure it out, he becomes obsessive until he can. From a young age, Kaede loved to learn, but more importantly, Kaede was also conscious of how to learn. Don'yokuna has the wisdom of generations. He trained Kaede as one of his own, and gifted him with the means of a much greater cognitive development than what he would have otherwise received through his Sennin Training. Though he was always smarter than what he led on, with his advanced thought processing, Kaede has become something of a genius. He can develop battle tactics on the turn of a dime, and seemingly read an opponent's movements through the patterns they display. Kaede is constantly thinking about hypothetical's of whatever situation he finds himself in, theorizing about nearly every possible outcome to find the best way to proceed. Though it took him years to develop this heightened awareness, the gift of learning became especially useful during his practices as a sage. The ability to balance Nature Chakra with his own was not exactly an easy feat, but with a combination of his natural talent, his ceaseless perseverance, and his unnatural cognition, even the sage arts became just another obsession for him to overcome.

NAME: Kuchiyose no Jutsu [Summoning Technique]
RANK: C
CHAKRA USAGE Very High
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu [General]
ELEMENT: None
HANDSEALS: 5
DESCRIPTION:
One of the most common and beneficial techniques in the known shinobi world. Simply drawing blood and releasing a mass of chakra from one's extended hand is capable of calling an animal or otherwise to one's location. As a Space-Time Ninjutsu, this technique is capable of instantly displacing an intended summon from wherever they may be to the requested location, though there are obstacles that can prevent this. To use this jutsu, one must first make a contract with whatever they are summoning, living creature or not. Both the size and the stamina of what a shinobi calls upon increases the demand of chakra they must spend to perform the jutsu.

Summoned wolf king Don'yokuna
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NAME: Don'yokuna
ABILITIES:
Ōkami Kenpō: Despite not having hands, the wolf king is an incredible swordsman. He has trained nearly his entire life as the guardian of a legendary blade, known as the Greatsword of Artorias. Due to the weapons size, Don’yokuna has developed impressive strength and speed through practice with the weapon, and as he holds the blade with in his jaw, the force of his bite has also grown much more powerful than some might expect, making it incredibly difficult to disarm the creature.

Cosmic Chakra Well: Don’yokuna has an incredible wealth of chakra at his disposal. So much so, that when he is summoned, his Chakra seems to radiate about him, creating a visible Aura around his body. Whenever the wolf utilizes his chakra, this aura can also be seen forming around whatever his chakra affects. When combined with a sage via the Amphibian technique, the effect of their two chakra's mixing has also been known to create a noticeable cloak of Nature Chakra.

Steel Fur: The wolf has trained for years with his blade, and in doing so, he has suffered from many wounds all over his body. Don’yokuna’s hide is naturally thicker than most wolves, which is especially useful when it comes to his combat abilities. His tough hide allows him to shrug off weaker attacks as if nothing happened. Most standard attacks and weaker jutsu that collide with the wolf will seem to have no effect on him, however, chakra imbued attacks will still damage him like normal, and stronger jutsu seem to have the same effect.

Incredible Speed: Don’yokuna is a legendary creature, and is said to be one of the fastest wolves ever known. He is capable of moving at nearly blinding speeds, making it difficult to track his movements without the help of sharingan or similar abilities.

Special Equipment:

Greatsword of Artorias

ABILITIES:
Chakra Reactive: The Greatsword of Artorias is highly reactive to Fuuton chakra, and without such chakra channeling through the blade, it seems to be a simple, though gigantic, sword. Without Fuuton Chakra channeling through the weapon, the abilities the greatsword offers it’s wielder are rendered unusable, and as such, requires a constant stream of chakra (Low Per Post) to keep active.

Wind Sever: Should Fuuton Chakra be channeled into the blade when the weapon comes in contact with flesh, it will glide through like a hot knife through butter. At first glance, the flesh will appear unscathed, spilling not a single drop of blood. However, this effect is short lived as the fuuton chakra imbued into the blade cuts so incredibly sharp and fast that the wounds do not seem to appear when the cut is initially made. When the wound finally appears, the cuts made tend to be far deeper than what would normally be expected, as the fuuton chakra adds to the cutting strength to the blade.

Wind Scar: A strike so great it is said to be able to slay armies with a single swing. Whether this is true or not remains to be seen, for this ability has rarely been used. By channeling a great amount of chakra (High) into the blade, the wielder will swing the weapon with incredible strength, unleashing a torrent of wind. The wind released from the attack creates a tornado like tunnel, and is capable of tearing the target to shreds from the wind pressure alone. The wind channeled from this attack moves incredibly quick achieving rates of 100mph, and its direction is determined from the swing of the weapon. The winds are released in a cone shape upon the swing of the weapon, reaching maximum distance of 100 meters deep, and 50 meters wide.

Requiem: Don'yokuna is a fierce practitioner of the Cleaving blade style of fighting, and the greatsword he uses is perfect for the practice. While using jutsu of this list with this weapon, the attacks seem to be stronger than normal, increasing the damage of all techniques B Rank and below by one rank. This is due to the fuuton reaction the blade is capable of. While channeling fuuton chakra through the blade, any technique of the cleaving blade gains the wind's cutting power, allowing the weapon to cut through even the toughest of armor. However, doing so does come at the cost of additional Low chakra in addition to the cost of the technique.


Used Wind Scar from his great sword ability at the cost of high chakra



Two summons Gaara and Ria moved from the area with Gaara tracking the scent he picked up from the puppets looking for the puppet master.

Honō Yoshitaka

"No time for tea, what a shame," Yoshitaka replied, keeping up the affable persona. Unfortunately it seemed that there was little chance of their opponents just talking it out or leaving, so battle it would have to be. As the lightning coated axe hurtled towards him, Yoshitaka seemed to blur out of sight thanks to Shunpo, reappearing some five meters out of its arc and ready to keep moving if it followed him further. His hands were already blurring through the seals for Kuchiyose no Jutsu as he reappeared, one hand hitting the ground to summon a toad now that things were getting serious.

In a puff of smoke the massive figure of Gamaken appeared on the battlefield.



"Ken-san, protect the blacksmiths in that cart please, I am unable to focus on them right now!" Yoshitaka called out, attention split between the puppets that his stone hands were (barely) holding still and the old man.

"I'll do my best, though it will be a bit clumsily Yoshi-san," the enormous toad replied, hopping between the enemies and the cart where he would follow behind it to keep them protected, his shield ready to block whatever came his way.

With that sorted out for the moment the male Honō's attention turned primarily to his cousin, the issue of the puppets seemingly under control for the moment as their ally summoned another wolf into the fray. Hands slipping into another seal long enough to ensure that the old man noticed it, Yoshitaka would try to utilise Atlas' Burden to help Chisai in her fight. Right now his ninjutsu wouldn't help, either being too destructive or weak to the man's Raiton, so he hoped that a genjutsu would even the odds. Should it go off, the man would feel a heavy, heated pressure coming off of Yoshitaka, an oppressive weighty feeling that should slow him down.

Combat Info:
Relevant SAs
Chakra Reserves
Like many of his clan, Yoshitaka has incredible chakra reserves, allowing him to perform many more jutsu than an average shinobi of his rank. With his level of skill, and his training, his reserves are high enough to throw around ninjutsu like other shinobi throw kunai.

Speed
Despite his relatively bulky frame, Yoshitaka is lightning fast even amongst Elite Jounin. Able to move far quicker than one would expect, he is capable of dancing across the battlefield to attack and defend.

Fast Handseals
Even amongst ninjutsu specialists Yoshitaka is quick to form handseals, his muscle memory and dexterity allowing him to rapidly move through the symbols and get jutsu off far faster than your average shinobi.

Elemental Master
As a ninjutsu specialist, Yoshitaka's ninjutsu are far more powerful than others without his focus, yet he has gone above and beyond this skillset when it comes to his use of Elemental Jutsu. Yoshitaka's elemental ninjutsu are significantly stronger than even those used by other ninjutsu sole specialists of his rank.


Jutsu Used

NAME: Subakage-ryū: Shunpo [New Shadow Style: Flash Steps]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Low-High
CLASSIFICATION: Taijutsu
ELEMENT: N/A
HANDSEALS: N/A
REQUIREMENT: Subakage-ryū: Hohō [New Shadow Style: Step Method]
DESCRIPTION:

Within the Step Method's branching techniques, the Flash Steps is the most refined for pure velocity and acceleration in one, linear direction. From the point of origin until the shinobi stops, they are able to move at an incredible pace, practically vanishing from sight. However, this is an incredibly taxing method of movement, and if used to move too far it can stress the body. It cannot reach the speed granted by Body Flicker, but it is not quite as devastating on the user. Traveling beyond fifteen meters with one step will cause great stress to the body. It still has a high chakra cost, but the muscle strain will immobilize the shinobi for one round as their body recovers. It is possible to utilize multiple flash steps back to back, but cost must be paid individually.

1-5m (Low)

6-10m (Medium)

11-15m (High)


NAME: Atorasu no Futan [Atlas' Burden]

RANK: B

CHAKRA USAGE: To Use: Medium | To Maintain: Low

CLASSIFICATION: Genjutsu

ELEMENT: -

HANDSEALS: 1

TRIGGER: Visual

DESCRIPTION:

This technique causes the target(s) to feel as if they have suddenly had a vast amount of weight, to the point where their body feels as if it might give out to the strain at any moment. Due to this the target(s) are often tricked into moving much more slow and deliberately in the real world where the user can take advantage of their more limited mobility. The technique is triggered by the target(s) seeing the user render a handseal.

-- A Bird's Eye View --


This was already a messy affair, but he did have plenty to handle this situation still. A few of his flock flipping back to following the two wolves trying to trace back to him. They would find that incredibly hard as the scent tracking back seemed to spiral in a strong set of turns. The puppets having not travelled in a straight line to get where they were. A set of four puppets that looked like training dummies with axes and hammers the size of grown men greeted the two wolves. Akio couldn't afford to let the wolves reach him, and he still had quite a large distance that he could manage the two battlefields if he split his focus and truly concentrated a thing he had not done in a while.

While the dummy like puppets began to spin sections of their long sectioned torso and dash at the wolves as a way to deter them, their weapons given enough force to maim, but not kill, the wolves, the main battlefield became a mess. The four foul looking puppets beginning to spin in violent circles as they attempted to fully shatter the stone hands that were slowing them. Managing it finally through a combination of technique with their blades and sheer weight just as Don'yokuna would appear.

Akio cursing at the sight would curse and flick his fingers before pulling them in entirely. The puppets shifting in a spread as the wind slicer picked up one of the massive puppets and began to crack and shred the entire outer shell away. Leaving a mostly destroyed puppet behind, though its main body had to of been made of insanely sturdy stuff since it had yet to crack and fall apart.

Causing the mouths on the remaining three to open a widespread, long reaching rain of senbon needles took to the sky before falling down. While most were fakes of the real deal, it was likely better to defend before you got caught as the senbon all looked noticable darker then normal.

-- I Request a Warrior's Death --


Hideo was delighted to see the group competently dodge the razor like raiton that surrounded his axe. It had once cleaved straight through a sheet of steel and it was a good part of why he had made it this deep into life. A good life it was too, and here he would find rest one way or another if he could help it. Tradition dictated a warrior die fighting though, and he was never one to break tradition. His axe swiftly returning to him and clearing out his attention turned solely to the individual who was striking out against him still with any true offense. It didn't take a genius to recognize the Kuchiyose jutsu, and less so for someone so experienced within battlefields.

Picking up his speed with the raiton on his feet, his steps took a far more 'correct' form that could only be the New Shadow Style: Step Method. As he continued speeding in an arcing path, he deliberately tried to spiral, getting closer and closer in the offense before suddenly blurring into a deeper cloud of crackling sparks as he pushed straight into melee with Chisai. His axes bearing down towards Chisai from both above on the left, and the right, the axe from before that had not been thrown before gaining an deep overcoat of lightning in the shape of an axe that increased the size of the head by nearly three times its natural size, resembling an executioner's axe more then a basic one-handed war axe like it was. A clear edge that would cleave through her if either were to make contact, and both coming in hot for Chisai.

His back turned from Yoshitaka in the time that he would have been able to finish giving his commands and turn to affect the old warrior with a genjutsu. His hearing being one of his strongest senses he was aware of sound from the Hono. A grin that was a calm kind of glee was clear on the old man's face for Chisai should his approach have worked.

FROM THE FLAMES OF BATTLE I WAS FORGED, FROM THE ASH LANDS I BECAME ANEW, MY SOUL STANDS UNYIELDING TO THE CHALLENGE AHEAD


The old man was fast, she would grant him that should she had the chance to talk to him, but as he would close towards her in those ephemeral brief instances, wielding his axes covered in lightning, the blonde would finish the string of seals that she had being forming at the tail end of her technique. The heat around her increased as her chakra coursed through her body, the soil around her feet cracking as she felt the ionized sting of electricity in the air on her skin.

Suddenly, as the old man seemed to swing the axes towards her, a stream of lava would erupt beneath her, engulfing her frame and disappearing as soon as it would materialized, making a fair distraction but also seeking to allow her kin to do his own attack. Suddenly the blonde would emerge from another geyser of melting rock, hands coming together as she would weave a new set of seal, drawing in breath as the alchemy of her blood would sing once more, her chakra moulding within seconds as she would aim as her feet would touch the soil.

Lips pressed would allow her exhale to escape in the form of a stream of lava, a sheet the molten rock fallen began to fall down, seeking to cover an area big enough that would consume the man, seeking to engulf the enemy and hopefully seeking to grant him the death that he was looking forward.





<br>
deltra of gangnam style


NAME: Yōton: Nekketsukan [Lava Release: Hot-Blooded Man]
CHAKRA COST: High - Very High
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu, Kekkei Genkai
ELEMENT: Yōton
DESCRIPTION:
With the channeling of chakra through out the user's body their affinity for lava release circulates through the user. The user's skin begins to harden and fragment in scattered places lightly resembling molten rock with small red surface veins of lava separating the fragments Ref. With this activated the excellerated body heat causes the user's heart to pump faster, circulating blood faster. The result is that the user's natural quickness and agility is three times better than what is originally was, this helps the body move at a faster pace. Due to unaccustomed body conditions this technique taxes the user's stamina greatly, and draws deeply on their chakra pool. Overexertion and overuse can cause the technique to fail and the user to pass out from exhaustion.

NAME: Yōton: Funkage Dansu [Lava Release: Erupting Shadow Dance]
CHAKRA COST: Moderate
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu, Kekkei Genkai
ELEMENT: Yōton
DESCRIPTION:
This technique operates as a advanced form of the body flicker technique. After performing the needed hand seals a small fissure quickly splits the ground under the user. A mass of lava emerges from the ground overtaking the user. Once the small scale eruption subsides another one occurs within ten meters away. This technique is normally used to flank an opponent or for evasive measures as the user emerges from the second fissure.


NAME: Yōton: Yōkai no Jutsu [Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: High
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu.
ELEMENT: Yōton
DESCRIPTION:
The user releases a large amount of lava from her mouth, which spreads into a broad, thin sheet as it travels through the air. Since it is shot upwards in an arc so as to descend onto the targets from above, it prevents the intended individuals from jumping up to avoid the attack. A great deal of smoke is created afterwards by the effects of the lava, so should the targets still be alive, a follow-up attack can be conducted while their vision remains obscured.

Kaede's two wolves had gone off in search of the puppet master himself as Gaara led Ria through the forest tracking the scent of the man he could smell left on his puppets, though this was proving to be harder than expected as the man had not traveled in straight directions, which made a lot of sense since he was a missing ninja and leaving tracing behind for village operatives to track was often a bad idea. So the two wolves followed along the scent as best as they could before being met by another four-looking puppets with large hammers and axes, they began to swing at the two wolves in the rotations they seemed to be trying to keep them at bay as the attacks were easy enough to dodge, but going backward wasn't going to get past the puppets as they were in front and in the way. So for now the wolves would continue to dodge the rotating attacks of the four puppets. Gaara would use its body flicker jutsu to get a wide birth from the attacking puppets managing to get enough distance from his flicker to continue to track down the puppet master. Ria would then use the wind walk jutsu while normally only allowing slight levitation to occur, due to Ria's skill with the jutsu it allows her to go much higher into the air than normal as she managed to avoid the puppets trying to swing at her by moving through the sky and would give her vantage from the sky.

Now within the main battlefield Don'yokuna attack had managed to do a lot of damage to one of the three puppets remaining though knowing the broken puppet it would still function in way or form. For now, the other three remaining puppets seemed to open their mouths, at this moment Kaede had finished gathering nature chakra for his sage mode. As slight changes in his appearance occur Kaede's ears become pointed at the ends, and his canine teeth elongate slightly. In addition, his eyes begin to almost radiate light, and his right eye will change from his normal golden color to an intense icy blue, matching the Wolf King Don'yokuna. During sage mode, blue-green pigmentation will also form on the bottom half of his eyelids, leading to points just before his hairline. As he stood up from Don'yokuna back. Before jumping down to the ground below the large wolf. Kaede hearing and smell had increased thanks to his sage mode so as the senbon was about to fire from the puppets he could tell that nothing seemed to happen, by the fact no noise was forming from two of the puppets which seemed strange, but would point out they were either fake or something similar so as the attacks from the senbon were shot into the air Kaede would form hand signs as he used the Suiton: Kami Hogo-sha [Water Release: Divine Guardian] as he created ten orbs of water chakra around him. Kaede would position five of the orbs above him and around him to defend against the incoming senbon due to how dense the water was it should have been enough to defend against the attack, even though some of the senbon were fake, there also seemed to be a foul smell in the air as well which normally likely could not be picked up from a normal sense of smell, but in sage mode Kaede smell was increased as well, which led him to think of poison being used. The other five orbs he would then activate as he fired them towards the group of puppets in front of him which would act like high condensed water balls, almost like a cannonball of sorts. "Go Don'yokuna..." With that the large wolf began to move.

Don'yokuna made sure that his legendary blade was flowing with fuuton chakra which enables the wind sever to be used when striking against his targets, then the wolf held his breath as he was preparing to use his Requiem breath which would effectively double the strength of his attacks for five moves then using the wolves naturally fast speed he would move towards the three puppets preparing to use the Requiem's stillness unless the puppets could track the high speed of the wolf which seemed unlikely he would first end up behind the group of puppets before starting the series of five strikes from the Requiem's stillness from different angles each time, amped by the Requiem breath and the wind sever from his great sword enabling great cutting ability and his natural strength would hopefully be enough to finish these puppets off. Plus the puppets didn't seem that fast to start with.

Many believe Kaede when he says that he was raised by wolves. And though this is due to many things, one very noticeable attribute he has to the creatures is his immeasurable stamina. Though Kaede will sweat and fatigue like everyone, he seems to have no off switch when it comes to just how far he is able to push himself. He claims it’s from "running with the wolves” so to speak, but this might not be far from the truth. One grand testament to this trait is that in his youth, Kaede would quite literally run for days on end for his training. When he first became a Genin, his Jounin sensei told him and his teammates to run until they no longer could. Though all three of them managed to run for hours on end, Kaede took the challenge quite literally. At the young age of only eleven, the boy managed to continue running for nearly three full days before he finally exhausted himself.

Genius Among Geniuses

Kaede’s mind is an incredible thing. He has the perception and intelligence to understand almost everything he touches, and if he can’t figure it out, he becomes obsessive until he can. From a young age, Kaede loved to learn, but more importantly, Kaede was also conscious of how to learn. Don'yokuna has the wisdom of generations. He trained Kaede as one of his own, and gifted him with the means of a much greater cognitive development than what he would have otherwise received through his Sennin Training. Though he was always smarter than what he led on, with his advanced thought processing, Kaede has become something of a genius. He can develop battle tactics on the turn of a dime, and seemingly read an opponent's movements through the patterns they display. Kaede is constantly thinking about hypothetical's of whatever situation he finds himself in, theorizing about nearly every possible outcome to find the best way to proceed. Though it took him years to develop this heightened awareness, the gift of learning became especially useful during his practices as a sage. The ability to balance Nature Chakra with his own was not exactly an easy feat, but with a combination of his natural talent, his ceaseless perseverance, and his unnatural cognition, even the sage arts became just another obsession for him to overcome.

Sennin Modō - Perfect Sage

Kaede began his training of the sage arts when he was around fourteen years old, and has spent the last twenty plus years perfecting his sage abilities. Though he is capable and then some with the likes of Taijutsu, Bukijutsu, Ninjutsu, and the other ninja arts, Kaede was found to have a pure talent of harnessing and utilizing Natural Chakra. Through years of hard work, training, and dedication, all paired with a little bit of talent, Kaede is now one of the very few to perfect the art of sage mode.

While in Sennin Modō Kaede would once take on many physical aspects of the wolf, from doglike ears, sharp claws and teeth, and fur covering portions of his body. However, after years of mastering his abilities he now hardly changes from his human form and his appearance only has a few wolf like features. The sage’s ears become pointed at the ends, and his canine teeth elongate slightly. In addition, his eyes begin to almost radiate light, and his right eye will change from his normal golden color to an intense icy blue, matching the Wolf King Don'yokuna. During sage mode, blue-green pigmentation will also form on the bottom half of his eyelids, leading to points just before his hairline.

For every round that Kaede maintains perfectly still to gather nature chakra is he able to gather it at the ratio of 40 pts per post. His threat cap is 130 pts and his stone cap is 400 pts

Ōkami Senses - Passive [1 pts][Active]

Kaede gains access to many wolf-like attributes while utilizing sage mode. When natural chakra is coursing through him his perception is increased, in addition to him gaining heightened senses of hearing and smell up to a kilometer's distance.

One with the Pack - Passive [1 pts][Active]

Kaede has been taught everything he knows about being a sage by the wolves of his contract. He has had no former sage to teach him and as such, gathering Nature chakra has always been done a little differently. When Kaede first began his training, he would meditate to gather the energy, but as it was necessary to remain immobile during the process it seemed impractical. So, after forming his unbreakable bond with the wolf Renji, Kaede is able to combine with him. Kaede is then able to fight and move without the necessity to remain motionless and gathers the chakra himself, as Renji can meditate for him and transfer the energy gathered to Kaede. While the chakra gathered this way is often slower than what Kaede could gather through meditation, [20 pts] the ability to move during the process creates an invaluable tool. What makes this bond special is that Kaede and his wolf Renji don't need the Senpō: Ryōsei no Jutsu [Sage Art: Amphibian Technique]. [His wolf Renji also has the same special ability.]

Note: Normal Meditation is still required for the initial entry of Sage Mode.

Sennin Genso Ken - Active [4 pts][Not active]

Kaede is a practitioner of a special fighting style known as Genso Ken, or Elemental Fist. With this fighting style Kaede can channel elemental chakra to his hands and feet to amplify the effects of his strikes with Raiton based chakra. Because the fighting style is a direct byproduct of Sēji Ken, the training allows him to apply nature chakra while under the influence of sage mode to his physical attacks to increase the range of his physical attacks as well as the effectiveness of each strike. While the additional range is not much, only about a foot in diameter around his hands and feet, it does allow him to damage others even if direct contact is not made. By adding Raiton chakra into the mix, the element produced this way become much stronger, and changes color with the influence of Natural Chakra, turning the lightning black in color. Additionally, it can be utilized on any taijutsu technique Kaede has knowledge of adding the 3 pts to the cost of the original technique. Not only does this add great speed and strength to his taijutsu, but also adds the elemental effects of lighting respectively, shocking whatever he strikes. Can be turned on and off when required to maintain pts for other sage techniques required.

Maelstrom Techniques - Active [4 pts] [See individual Jutsu][Not active]

When Kaede was in his youth, he trained under Ryujin Takanashi. As member of the Ryujin clan the man was gifted with the Ranton Kekkai Genkai, a combination of Suiton and Raiton. The techniques fascinated the young Kaede, and in his training with the Jounin, he would learn about how combination elements came to be. Though he was not gifted with the clans legendary Kekkai Genkai, Kaede used the knowledge he learned from the man to use the two elements in tandem. It seemed near impossible at first, but with the influence of natural chakra, Kaede was able to produce a series of techniques he would later call "Maelstrom Techniques.” These jutsu did not produce the same effect as Ranton, however, it did allow him to influence his water techniques with lightning allowing the water to conduct the element to add to his techniques destructive force. While true, most of the techniques he created can still be used with just Suiton, the addition of lightning to these jutsu would add cutting strength to the water, in addition to shocking the target. The active part of the senjutsu required for these is added on to the jutsu so doesn't remain active at all times.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NAME: Don'yokuna
ABILITIES:
Ōkami Kenpō: Despite not having hands, the wolf king is an incredible swordsman. He has trained nearly his entire life as the guardian of a legendary blade, known as the Greatsword of Artorias. Due to the weapons size, Don’yokuna has developed impressive strength and speed through practice with the weapon, and as he holds the blade with in his jaw, the force of his bite has also grown much more powerful than some might expect, making it incredibly difficult to disarm the creature.

Cosmic Chakra Well: Don’yokuna has an incredible wealth of chakra at his disposal. So much so, that when he is summoned, his Chakra seems to radiate about him, creating a visible Aura around his body. Whenever the wolf utilizes his chakra, this aura can also be seen forming around whatever his chakra affects. When combined with a sage via the Amphibian technique, the effect of their two chakra's mixing has also been known to create a noticeable cloak of Nature Chakra.

Steel Fur: The wolf has trained for years with his blade, and in doing so, he has suffered from many wounds all over his body. Don’yokuna’s hide is naturally thicker than most wolves, which is especially useful when it comes to his combat abilities. His tough hide allows him to shrug off weaker attacks as if nothing happened. Most standard attacks and weaker jutsu that collide with the wolf will seem to have no effect on him, however, chakra imbued attacks will still damage him like normal, and stronger jutsu seem to have the same effect.

Incredible Speed: Don’yokuna is a legendary creature, and is said to be one of the fastest wolves ever known. He is capable of moving at nearly blinding speeds, making it difficult to track his movements without the help of sharingan or similar abilities.

Special Equipment:

Greatsword of Artorias

ABILITIES:
Chakra Reactive: The Greatsword of Artorias is highly reactive to Fuuton chakra, and without such chakra channeling through the blade, it seems to be a simple, though gigantic, sword. Without Fuuton Chakra channeling through the weapon, the abilities the greatsword offers it’s wielder are rendered unusable, and as such, requires a constant stream of chakra (Low Per Post) to keep active. Active low cost

Wind Sever: Should Fuuton Chakra be channeled into the blade when the weapon comes in contact with flesh, it will glide through like a hot knife through butter. At first glance, the flesh will appear unscathed, spilling not a single drop of blood. However, this effect is short lived as the fuuton chakra imbued into the blade cuts so incredibly sharp and fast that the wounds do not seem to appear when the cut is initially made. When the wound finally appears, the cuts made tend to be far deeper than what would normally be expected, as the fuuton chakra adds to the cutting strength to the blade. Active low cost

Wind Scar: A strike so great it is said to be able to slay armies with a single swing. Whether this is true or not remains to be seen, for this ability has rarely been used. By channeling a great amount of chakra (High) into the blade, the wielder will swing the weapon with incredible strength, unleashing a torrent of wind. The wind released from the attack creates a tornado like tunnel, and is capable of tearing the target to shreds from the wind pressure alone. The wind channeled from this attack moves incredibly quick achieving rates of 100mph, and its direction is determined from the swing of the weapon. The winds are released in a cone shape upon the swing of the weapon, reaching maximum distance of 100 meters deep, and 50 meters wide.

Requiem: Don'yokuna is a fierce practitioner of the Cleaving blade style of fighting, and the greatsword he uses is perfect for the practice. While using jutsu of this list with this weapon, the attacks seem to be stronger than normal, increasing the damage of all techniques B Rank and below by one rank. This is due to the fuuton reaction the blade is capable of. While channeling fuuton chakra through the blade, any technique of the cleaving blade gains the wind's cutting power, allowing the weapon to cut through even the toughest of armor. However, doing so does come at the cost of additional Low chakra in addition to the cost of the technique.

Activated Wind Sever from greatsword
Used NAME: Chinkonka no iki | 鎮魂歌の息 [Requiem's Breath]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low - Very High [Medium]
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: None.
DESCRIPTION:
A special breathing technique that is the foundation of all the moves, if one wishes to go beyond toying with it. By inhaling deeply, the user prepares the muscles for a quick and strong succession of moves, that will double the strength behind each blow.
This technique works for five moves in total, be them combinations of two strikes or single ones. After those strikes, the user needs half a minute (one RP round) before striking again with the help of Requiem's Breath.

NAME: Chinkonka no shizukesa | 鎮魂歌の静けさ [Requiem's stillness]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Medium
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION:
A move of high speed, but that doesn't loose any of it's strength. It is a series of five slashes, coming from all directions, flowing like a river, while the opponent moves forwards, so to end up behind the opponent.
It is said that when this move is used along with the Requiem's breath, the opponent will have five more seconds to live, before falling to pieces.
This move is easily followed by the Sharingan wielders, as well as other bukijutsu masters, but against unprepared opponents, it is a deadly move, that cannot be stopped and only avoided by pure luck.

Ria used
ABILITIES:
Wind Running: Due to her skill with the wind walking technique, Ria has found a way to amplify the ability to allow her to ascend into the sky up to around fifteen meters, as opposed to the slight levitation the technique normally provides. In doing so, Ria does not move any faster through the air than the technique would normally allow, however this does allow her to help her pack in hunting and tracking because she can run high up into the sky to see the wolves surroundings and in theory have a better chance of finding her target.

NAME: Fūton: Kaze Sanpo [Wind Release: Wind Walk]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu
ELEMENT: Fūton
HANDSEALS: 1
DESCRIPTION:
This technique allows the user to create a wind like base under their feet, reducing friction and enhancing the user's speed. The user doesn't seem to be levitating unless under close inspection which they seem to be about 1.5 - 2cm off the ground. Apart from enhancing speed, this technique gives the user the ability to walk on water and evade projectile attacks with ease.


Gaara used

NAME: Shunshin no Jutsu [Body Flicker Technique]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu [General]
ELEMENT: None
HANDSEALS: 1
DESCRIPTION:
By invigorating one's entire body with chakra, a shinobi can seemingly disappear and reappear in another location faster than most people can see. Often times one's movements are disguised with the use of an extra element, be it a smoke bomb, leaves, water, sand, etc. in order to hide the user's trajectory from those with skilled eyes. Though it mimics teleportation, it is important to remember this jutsu merely boosts the agility of its user. As useful as this technique is, it can only be used 4 times in a battle thread, compounding in exertion and difficulty each time. with any more usages beyond that result in muscle tears in the legs from overexertion. The hand seal for this technique must be held until the shinobi reaches their destination, making it impossible to utilize other techniques regardless of any preparation.

POST

-- A Bird's Eye View --


Akio was in the tank at this point, he had always been good with reacting to people, but now that push was coming to shove - he was relentlessly set. The four dummy-like puppets with too many weapons for limbs would almost immediately began pursuit, or rather they would begin to catch up from the looks of things. The moment either wolf had moved the puppets had turned and begun pursuing the two. They weren't like humans, they were controlled by one simply by highly reactive strings. If they continued to search his scent they would only find his next line of defense, but he doubted he would be around long enough to allow for such a thing.

He could rebuild puppets, but you only lived on life - you could not revive the dead so easily. He would have done it already, but the cost was not worth it given its equivalency. The puppets blades weapons would pick up speed a the mechanism in them caused them to leap up and sideways, expanding as they linked together in the center, hitting the ground with a rumble as they began to steamroll over the hills towards the wolves at an even higher speed. Both getting the idea that even if they weaved between trees this puppet duo was designed to crash straight through, or simply get around it. While one had taken to the air, Gaara was left solely alone with the scent and a massive tumble of weapons hot on his haunches. Ria making out no real information from where they were, but they had travelled a good distance from the main battle. Being so high up in the air meant that she also had no more scent trail as the wind had mothing physical to carry the smell.

Back within the hail of Senbon a bad situation would appear, despite is attempted defense the hail was not so one directional as to only come from above. Heading in from most every forward angle the senbon were nearly unavoidable with such a thin defense. Though his head was more then protected his torso and the like were not. A feeling as senbon with barely enough force to pierce skin did so repeatedly to the sage. Including some of those which were foul in smell. Similarly Don'yokuna was not spared. His fun kept out the worst of it, but even the grand wolf had soft less covered areas of flesh. The senbon finding those areas and piercing just enough to leave multiple small punctures and their surprise. An immediate sense of lethargy hitting both wolf and sage as they were induced with a tranq poison. A timer starting in both their bodies that would mean they needed to finish the fight fast.

The other orbs would smash into the remaining three puppets with a strong crash. Though it did not dent the puppets sturdy construction on its own, these were the magnum opus of a puppeteer after all and incredibly sturdy creations. Closing their mouths the remaining real puppet would begin to spin its limbs, revealing the many blades again as it was pushed forward towards Don'Yokuna, the idea of it making contact not likely a good idea for the wolf, but the other two were far closer then the third had been. Their bulk had made them slow, but they had been spreading out only a moment before, reaching all three was improbable, but the puff of smoke that came from the clones breaking was a titanic blast.

-- I Request a Warrior's Death --


The ground had been boiling beneath the woman as his axes had crossed in the air where Chisai had been. An annoying evasion of his axes, but a good one. He was quite enjoying this final battle, albiet his death was likely to be brutal if this kept up like this. Lava was not a painless way to go, and having his beard nearly singed by it twice he was certain it was a tale worthy way to die. He only needed to leave an impression on this woman before she managed and he knew the perfect trick as he heard the ground break apart as Chisai re-appeared. His smile never leaving his face as he crossed his axes and their sparks combined together, pulling them apart as the axes quickly enlarged into massive 12 meter long replicas of the war axes, the same elongated electric edge covering an even wider section of the area. Flipping his right hand he would rotate backwards as he would slip forwards in a rapid spinning motion with the titanic axes. The blades easily cutting anything that it made contact with, the upwards spout of lave chasing his heels as it fell, a glob landing upon his back even as he approached and burning deeply into his tunic.

Truly a horrible way to go, but he was powering through for now.

Honō Yoshitaka

Yoshitaka had taken the opportunity given by not being the focus of either of the attackers in order to make sure that the blacksmiths got away safely, followed by getting himself into a good position to surprise the old man when he was distracted. It was somewhat tricky considering the last time he had fought alongside others at this level, and he likely missed an opportunity or two, but in this situation he wasn't willing to risk jumping in at the wrong moment.

As the old man began to spin, arcs of electricity surrounding him in a tornado of lightning as he headed towards Chisai, Yoshitaka leapt upwards, trying to get himself into a good position as his hands blurred through the seals for Katon: Ryujin Koyku before he exhaled a massive plume of fire in the old man's direction, trying to aim downwards to get him from above, the area where his jutsu wouldn't interfere with Yoshitaka's own. Between his own speed, his swift seals, and his elemental mastery, he was confident that the A rank Katon would at the very least distract the man and give Chisai a chance to end it.

And if it incinerated the old man to ash? Well, that would be good too. He wasn't too concerned with giving their attacker a 'warrior's death', it wasn't his problem if the man had disregarded him in the fight.

Of course, he did need to keep a half ear out on what was going on with their companion, lest the Kumo-nin get overwhelmed.

Combat Info

Relevant SAs

Yōton Master

Yoshitaka is one of the few members of his clan capable of manifesting their Kekkai Genkai. By combining Katon and Doton chakra, he is able to produce a number of dangerous and corrosive substances, ranging from his preferred use of burning lava to acidic quicklime and defensive rubber. Yoshitaka's focus on ninjutsu and his skill with elemental jutsu makes his Yōton techniques something to be feared.



Chakra Reserves

Like many of his clan, Yoshitaka has incredible chakra reserves, allowing him to perform many more jutsu than an average shinobi of his rank. With his level of skill, and his training, his reserves are high enough to throw around ninjutsu like other shinobi throw kunai.



Speed

Despite his relatively bulky frame, Yoshitaka is lightning fast even amongst Elite Jounin. Able to move far quicker than one would expect, he is capable of dancing across the battlefield to attack and defend.



Fast Handseals

Even amongst ninjutsu specialists Yoshitaka is quick to form handseals, his muscle memory and dexterity allowing him to rapidly move through the symbols and get jutsu off far faster than your average shinobi.



Elemental Master

As a ninjutsu specialist, Yoshitaka's ninjutsu are far more powerful than others without his focus, yet he has gone above and beyond this skillset when it comes to his use of Elemental Jutsu. Yoshitaka's elemental ninjutsu are significantly stronger than even those used by other ninjutsu sole specialists of his rank.

The two wolves that had been searching for the scent of the puppet master seemed to be in little more trouble now as this was becoming a little overwhelming at least for them at the moment. As Riaa overlooked the region from the air there were no obvious movements from the trees or anything like that so being in the air at this moment was nothing more than a safety tactic. So letting off a howl of her own would be enough to notify to Gaara that this was pointless to chase the puppet master down at this moment in time not without backup anyway considering the puppets that were put in place to defend against tracking him down. Gaara would use his body flicker justu once more to evade the larger combined puppet coming heading his way, making sure to get enough distance from it as Riaa started to head back to the main battleground with Gaara not far behind having evaded the puppet easily enough. If they would come back it would be with a stronger presence but for now they had to give up.

Now on the main battlefield, as the hail of senbon came crashing down from the sky, Kaede didn't judge the angle of them well enough as his head had been protected from the water jutsu he had used, but other angles wasn't so spared as several attacks of senbon had made impact with the sage causing them to piece his skin in many places were it was exposed some of his cloths had protected from some of them but not enough had been inflicted with the foul smell of poison that much was clear as he could smell it before even stronger now as he felt his body tired. Kaede had miss judged the power of the senbon and had paid for it all he could do now was try and finish this final remaining puppet as it seemed Don'yokuna had been inflicted as well. So for now had to finish this last remaining puppet.

Kaede now had to make sure he finished off the puppet as quickly as possible before the poison did whatever it was going to do to him. So Kaede would channel chakra into his right arm as his arm would glow bright with wind chakra before he would launch the wind chakra toward the puppet with a motion of his hand. The wind chakra moved towards the puppet in a slicing chakra wave. Kaede did not stop there as he had launched several more of these same slicing chakra waves at the enemy puppet one after the other totalling four in number.

Don'yokuna on the other hand had also been struck by the same poison but instead of moving from its spot to avoid an incoming attack the large wolf lowered himself to the ground with his hind legs before raising the large great sword in the air ready to counter the charging puppet if it choose to attack him with its spinning blades. With Don'yokuna using its retaliation move with enough strength behind it aiming to deflect the puppet's strikes to cleave it in half with whatever damage came from Kaede own strikes as well hopefully, this would be enough.




[IC COMBAT INFORMATION]

[Skills/Traits In-Usage]:


Incredible Chakra Reserves

Kaede was not born into a powerful clan. He has no special Kekkai Genkai, no family Hijutsu, or anything of the nature. He was, however, gifted with a wealth of chakra. Though it is uncertain just how much he is fully capable of, as he does not commonly use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, it is painfully obvious he has reserves capable of far outlasting the typical shinobi. When he combines his natural reserves with that of Nature based Chakra, he is capable of using multiple Senpo Arts back to back without showing signs of fatigue.

Inhuman Stamina

Many believe Kaede when he says that he was raised by wolves. And though this is due to many things, one very noticeable attribute he has to the creatures is his immeasurable stamina. Though Kaede will sweat and fatigue like everyone, he seems to have no off switch when it comes to just how far he is able to push himself. He claims it’s from "running with the wolves” so to speak, but this might not be far from the truth. One grand testament to this trait is that in his youth, Kaede would quite literally run for days on end for his training. When he first became a Genin, his Jounin sensei told him and his teammates to run until they no longer could. Though all three of them managed to run for hours on end, Kaede took the challenge quite literally. At the young age of only eleven, the boy managed to continue running for nearly three full days before he finally exhausted himself.

Genius Among Geniuses

Kaede’s mind is an incredible thing. He has the perception and intelligence to understand almost everything he touches, and if he can’t figure it out, he becomes obsessive until he can. From a young age, Kaede loved to learn, but more importantly, Kaede was also conscious of how to learn. Don'yokuna has the wisdom of generations. He trained Kaede as one of his own, and gifted him with the means of a much greater cognitive development than what he would have otherwise received through his Sennin Training. Though he was always smarter than what he led on, with his advanced thought processing, Kaede has become something of a genius. He can develop battle tactics on the turn of a dime, and seemingly read an opponent's movements through the patterns they display. Kaede is constantly thinking about hypothetical's of whatever situation he finds himself in, theorizing about nearly every possible outcome to find the best way to proceed. Though it took him years to develop this heightened awareness, the gift of learning became especially useful during his practices as a sage. The ability to balance Nature Chakra with his own was not exactly an easy feat, but with a combination of his natural talent, his ceaseless perseverance, and his unnatural cognition, even the sage arts became just another obsession for him to overcome.

Sennin Modō - Perfect Sage

Kaede began his training of the sage arts when he was around fourteen years old, and has spent the last twenty plus years perfecting his sage abilities. Though he is capable and then some with the likes of Taijutsu, Bukijutsu, Ninjutsu, and the other ninja arts, Kaede was found to have a pure talent of harnessing and utilizing Natural Chakra. Through years of hard work, training, and dedication, all paired with a little bit of talent, Kaede is now one of the very few to perfect the art of sage mode.

While in Sennin Modō Kaede would once take on many physical aspects of the wolf, from doglike ears, sharp claws and teeth, and fur covering portions of his body. However, after years of mastering his abilities he now hardly changes from his human form and his appearance only has a few wolf like features. The sage’s ears become pointed at the ends, and his canine teeth elongate slightly. In addition, his eyes begin to almost radiate light, and his right eye will change from his normal golden color to an intense icy blue, matching the Wolf King Don'yokuna. During sage mode, blue-green pigmentation will also form on the bottom half of his eyelids, leading to points just before his hairline.

For every round that Kaede maintains perfectly still to gather nature chakra is he able to gather it at the ratio of 40 pts per post. His threat cap is 130 pts and his stone cap is 400 pts

Ōkami Senses - Passive [1 pts][Active]

Kaede gains access to many wolf-like attributes while utilizing sage mode. When natural chakra is coursing through him his perception is increased, in addition to him gaining heightened senses of hearing and smell up to a kilometer's distance.

One with the Pack - Passive [1 pts][Active]

Kaede has been taught everything he knows about being a sage by the wolves of his contract. He has had no former sage to teach him and as such, gathering Nature chakra has always been done a little differently. When Kaede first began his training, he would meditate to gather the energy, but as it was necessary to remain immobile during the process it seemed impractical. So, after forming his unbreakable bond with the wolf Renji, Kaede is able to combine with him. Kaede is then able to fight and move without the necessity to remain motionless and gathers the chakra himself, as Renji can meditate for him and transfer the energy gathered to Kaede. While the chakra gathered this way is often slower than what Kaede could gather through meditation, [20 pts] the ability to move during the process creates an invaluable tool. What makes this bond special is that Kaede and his wolf Renji don't need the Senpō: Ryōsei no Jutsu [Sage Art: Amphibian Technique]. [His wolf Renji also has the same special ability.]

Note: Normal Meditation is still required for the initial entry of Sage Mode.

Sennin Genso Ken - Active [4 pts][Not active]

Kaede is a practitioner of a special fighting style known as Genso Ken, or Elemental Fist. With this fighting style Kaede can channel elemental chakra to his hands and feet to amplify the effects of his strikes with Raiton based chakra. Because the fighting style is a direct byproduct of Sēji Ken, the training allows him to apply nature chakra while under the influence of sage mode to his physical attacks to increase the range of his physical attacks as well as the effectiveness of each strike. While the additional range is not much, only about a foot in diameter around his hands and feet, it does allow him to damage others even if direct contact is not made. By adding Raiton chakra into the mix, the element produced this way become much stronger, and changes color with the influence of Natural Chakra, turning the lightning black in color. Additionally, it can be utilized on any taijutsu technique Kaede has knowledge of adding the 3 pts to the cost of the original technique. Not only does this add great speed and strength to his taijutsu, but also adds the elemental effects of lighting respectively, shocking whatever he strikes. Can be turned on and off when required to maintain pts for other sage techniques required.

Maelstrom Techniques - Active [4 pts] [See individual Jutsu][Not active]

When Kaede was in his youth, he trained under Ryujin Takanashi. As member of the Ryujin clan the man was gifted with the Ranton Kekkai Genkai, a combination of Suiton and Raiton. The techniques fascinated the young Kaede, and in his training with the Jounin, he would learn about how combination elements came to be. Though he was not gifted with the clans legendary Kekkai Genkai, Kaede used the knowledge he learned from the man to use the two elements in tandem. It seemed near impossible at first, but with the influence of natural chakra, Kaede was able to produce a series of techniques he would later call "Maelstrom Techniques.” These jutsu did not produce the same effect as Ranton, however, it did allow him to influence his water techniques with lightning allowing the water to conduct the element to add to his techniques destructive force. While true, most of the techniques he created can still be used with just Suiton, the addition of lightning to these jutsu would add cutting strength to the water, in addition to shocking the target. The active part of the senjutsu required for these is added on to the jutsu so doesn't remain active at all times.

Ōkami Kenpō: Despite not having hands, the wolf king is an incredible swordsman. He has trained nearly his entire life as the guardian of a legendary blade, known as the Greatsword of Artorias. Due to the weapons size, Don’yokuna has developed impressive strength and speed through practice with the weapon, and as he holds the blade with in his jaw, the force of his bite has also grown much more powerful than some might expect, making it incredibly difficult to disarm the creature.

Cosmic Chakra Well: Don’yokuna has an incredible wealth of chakra at his disposal. So much so, that when he is summoned, his Chakra seems to radiate about him, creating a visible Aura around his body. Whenever the wolf utilizes his chakra, this aura can also be seen forming around whatever his chakra affects. When combined with a sage via the Amphibian technique, the effect of their two chakra's mixing has also been known to create a noticeable cloak of Nature Chakra.

Steel Fur: The wolf has trained for years with his blade, and in doing so, he has suffered from many wounds all over his body. Don’yokuna’s hide is naturally thicker than most wolves, which is especially useful when it comes to his combat abilities. His tough hide allows him to shrug off weaker attacks as if nothing happened. Most standard attacks and weaker jutsu that collide with the wolf will seem to have no effect on him, however, chakra imbued attacks will still damage him like normal, and stronger jutsu seem to have the same effect.

Incredible Speed: Don’yokuna is a legendary creature, and is said to be one of the fastest wolves ever known. He is capable of moving at nearly blinding speeds, making it difficult to track his movements without the help of sharingan or similar abilities.

Special Equipment:

Greatsword of Artorias

ABILITIES:
Chakra Reactive: The Greatsword of Artorias is highly reactive to Fuuton chakra, and without such chakra channeling through the blade, it seems to be a simple, though gigantic, sword. Without Fuuton Chakra channeling through the weapon, the abilities the greatsword offers it’s wielder are rendered unusable, and as such, requires a constant stream of chakra (Low Per Post) to keep active. Active low cost

Wind Sever: Should Fuuton Chakra be channeled into the blade when the weapon comes in contact with flesh, it will glide through like a hot knife through butter. At first glance, the flesh will appear unscathed, spilling not a single drop of blood. However, this effect is short lived as the fuuton chakra imbued into the blade cuts so incredibly sharp and fast that the wounds do not seem to appear when the cut is initially made. When the wound finally appears, the cuts made tend to be far deeper than what would normally be expected, as the fuuton chakra adds to the cutting strength to the blade. Active low cost

Wind Scar: A strike so great it is said to be able to slay armies with a single swing. Whether this is true or not remains to be seen, for this ability has rarely been used. By channeling a great amount of chakra (High) into the blade, the wielder will swing the weapon with incredible strength, unleashing a torrent of wind. The wind released from the attack creates a tornado like tunnel, and is capable of tearing the target to shreds from the wind pressure alone. The wind channeled from this attack moves incredibly quick achieving rates of 100mph, and its direction is determined from the swing of the weapon. The winds are released in a cone shape upon the swing of the weapon, reaching maximum distance of 100 meters deep, and 50 meters wide.

Requiem: Don'yokuna is a fierce practitioner of the Cleaving blade style of fighting, and the greatsword he uses is perfect for the practice. While using jutsu of this list with this weapon, the attacks seem to be stronger than normal, increasing the damage of all techniques B Rank and below by one rank. This is due to the fuuton reaction the blade is capable of. While channeling fuuton chakra through the blade, any technique of the cleaving blade gains the wind's cutting power, allowing the weapon to cut through even the toughest of armor. However, doing so does come at the cost of additional Low chakra in addition to the cost of the technique.

Activated Wind Sever from greatsword
NAME: Chinkonka no arashi | 鎮魂歌の嵐 [Requiem's storm]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: High
CLASSIFICATION: Bukijutsu
ELEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION:
A move that requires a low stance to begin with. The user will lower themselves through the knees, until one of them touches the floor. Their weapon will be held up high behind them, giving them the look of a wild animal ready to jump their prey.
This is a retaliation move, which would need the opponent to make an attack first. But be it a ninjutsu, taijutsu or bukijutsu, the result will be the same.
The strength behind this move allows the opponent to cleave the attack in two by rising up, the sheer pressured strength in the air allowing this to happen. With some attacks, it means it will be deflected, but with others, it could mean the death or end of one's weapon, body or attack.

Ria used
ABILITIES:
Wind Running: Due to her skill with the wind walking technique, Ria has found a way to amplify the ability to allow her to ascend into the sky up to around fifteen meters, as opposed to the slight levitation the technique normally provides. In doing so, Ria does not move any faster through the air than the technique would normally allow, however this does allow her to help her pack in hunting and tracking because she can run high up into the sky to see the wolves surroundings and in theory have a better chance of finding her target.

NAME: Fūton: Kaze Sanpo [Wind Release: Wind Walk]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu
ELEMENT: Fūton
HANDSEALS: 1
DESCRIPTION:
This technique allows the user to create a wind like base under their feet, reducing friction and enhancing the user's speed. The user doesn't seem to be levitating unless under close inspection which they seem to be about 1.5 - 2cm off the ground. Apart from enhancing speed, this technique gives the user the ability to walk on water and evade projectile attacks with ease.


Gaara used

NAME: Shunshin no Jutsu [Body Flicker Technique]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu [General]
ELEMENT: None
HANDSEALS: 1
DESCRIPTION:
By invigorating one's entire body with chakra, a shinobi can seemingly disappear and reappear in another location faster than most people can see. Often times one's movements are disguised with the use of an extra element, be it a smoke bomb, leaves, water, sand, etc. in order to hide the user's trajectory from those with skilled eyes. Though it mimics teleportation, it is important to remember this jutsu merely boosts the agility of its user. As useful as this technique is, it can only be used 4 times in a battle thread, compounding in exertion and difficulty each time. with any more usages beyond that result in muscle tears in the legs from overexertion. The hand seal for this technique must be held until the shinobi reaches their destination, making it impossible to utilize other techniques regardless of any preparation.

2nd use

FROM THE FLAMES OF BATTLE I WAS FORGED, FROM THE ASH LANDS I BECAME ANEW, MY SOUL STANDS UNYIELDING TO THE CHALLENGE AHEAD


The blonde had hoped that the sheet of lava would cause the downfall of her opponent. She had been certain that doom would come after the man as he found himself facing in unescapable death. But as twin slices ripped apart the molten rock and goblets of burning lava were scattered, her eyes widened in disbelief as the old man refused to die. If her flesh could become even paler, the color would have been drawn from her, yet even as he seemed to escape certain doom he hadn't done it unscathed.

Yet before any thoughts of doom seemed to invade her min, her eyes of lilac starlight averted to the plume of flames that plunged from above, threatening to strike at the man, the blurred image of what she thought had to be her own kin coming to her aid. She would thank such an intervention, whether the man would perish in flames and turn to ash or be distracted enough she didn't care, she would hop away, trying to gain some distance between man and herself, her hands would come together for a hand seal, sending her chakra molding through her body.

She felt the searing burn of her chakra within herself, her hand forming into a fist and her arm pulling back as she took aim, muscles would tense and then she would release the blast from her fist. A stream of lava escaped her fist, flying truly and taking the shape of flying lion that would boil the very as it would make its way towards the old man, threatening to give it the death he so much desired.

deltra of gangnam style


NAME: Yōton: Nekketsukan [Lava Release: Hot-Blooded Man]
RANK: B
CHAKRA COST: High - Very High
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu, Kekkei Genkai
ELEMENT: Yōton
DESCRIPTION:
With the channeling of chakra through out the user's body their affinity for lava release circulates through the user. The user's skin begins to harden and fragment in scattered places lightly resembling molten rock with small red surface veins of lava separating the fragments Ref. With this activated the accelerated body heat causes the user's heart to pump faster, circulating blood faster. The result is that the user's natural quickness and agility is three times better than what is originally was, this helps the body move at a faster pace. Due to unaccustomed body conditions this technique taxes the user's stamina greatly, and draws deeply on their chakra pool. Overexertion and overuse can cause the technique to fail and the user to pass out from exhaustion.

NAME: Yōton: Shakushishiken [Lava Release: Scorching Lion Fist]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: High
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu.
ELEMENT: Yōton
DESCRIPTION:
The user coats their fist with a great quantity of lava release chakra, before swinging their arm, unleashing a rapid torrent of molten rocks in the shape of a lion against the enemy. The torrent can melt through solid rock and highly resistant metals with great ease and turn the enemy to ash, the heat alone would cause the enemy to severe burns.
