Strong, Slicing, Steel



Plot line~
A new era is coming upon the people of the new world, larger and stronger things are being built that can be used for stronger purposes. But one person arose from the ashes of the old world. Carrying a large and heavy weapon, this was a giant, the man was at least 8 feet tall, his sword almost as tall and as heavy as he was. The man could swing the sword down with such strength, it would case ripples in the earth surface creating earthquakes and large gaps in the earth. But this man, had no charka. So all he had was brute strength and nothing more

This man lived to be 200 hundred, but before he passed away, he gave his strength and skill to his children. His children learned the ways of how to control the large swords, but this children added another part to it. They added charka control to their blades. Giving them as large of powers as their father, but on certain swings, they were able to move it quite fast. The large weight of the blades helps learn new moves and stronger styles. Soon moving and handling the blade was as easy as it was for their farther. Soon the children taught their kids. and their kids until now. Where the ninjas of the new world will be taught it.

----------

Raiton Taigā || Lightning Release Tiger

Fear Our Destructive Roar

Style Description: This Style was created by Kora 'Faz' as simply a dream. Over time, he eventually set his mind's sleeping dreams in to motion, each night coming up with a new thing. When he awoke, he tried his hardest to document everything until it was time to finally create it. After a long and hard process of creating the style on a scroll, he set out, attempting to turn it in to reality. It's main purpose was to make the user faster, as well as use their Lightning Abilities to make them faster, and stronger.

Style Basis: Tanto + Lightning Element [Accuracy + Chakra Control]

Training Methods: The trainee is to wear weights on their body, allowing for them to work out with them increasing their strength and speed to the maximum. When training with the Tanto, they channel they also train their chakra control with the Tanto, channeling their Lightning Based Chakra in to the weapon, allowing for swiftness and destruction with higher level techniques.

Movement: Users of the Lightning Tiger Style are not slow, but not overly fast either. If caught by an attack from the Lightning Tiger users though, it is almost impossible to not be continuously hit by the ferocious attacks made against the opponent.

Stage One

This stage of the style is pretty much an 'ice-breaker' of sorts in to the Training Methods and the ways of the attacks. All of the techniques used are of the lowest possible rank except for the Special Technique, which is Genin ranked. The trainee puts 50 [Fifty] pound weights on each limb; arms and legs. A total of 200 [Two Hundred] pounds weighing down the person, much like carrying around a second body.

XXXXXXXXRegular Techniques:

● Material Stabbing: During the use of this technique, the user begins their training of it by first stabbing the Tanto in to the ground. After repeatedly stabbing it in to the ground, eventually the user gets their accuracy up as well as there is a decent strain on the muscles. In the second part of the training, and the completion of the technique, the user stabs the Tanto in to piece of thin steel, like a flak jacket would be made of. They charge the Tanto up with Lightning Chakra, and use the Lightning affinity to speed up the attack, whilst using the bit of strength they've gained to push through the hard material. [E-Ranked]

● Parry Channeling: The Parry Channeling technique is used to do two simple things; block the attack and remove the opponent's weapon. When the user has their Tanto out, and are going against their opponent, the user will channel chakra through their Tanto, and push forward with the blade in a parry. When the two blades touch each other, the Lightning will move through, and will cause the opponent's fingers to get a slight shock. The shock however is enough to make the opponent drop their weapon. [E-Ranked]

XXXXXXXXSpecial Technique:

● Light Flash: The user charges the sword with lightning chakra, and builds up the chakra along the blade. The user throws up the sword with a single handle, and makes a seal. Then, the chakra seems to implode on the blade, reflecting away in a three hundred and sixty degree dome. It is near impossible to block the light, that blinds the person for one post, and in the next post there is half and half vision [very blurred]. Then, it is gone. Can be used once per battle. [D-Ranked]

Stage Two

The second stage of the Lightning Tiger Style has a strength buffer, giving the user a gain of One [1] rank in Strength. But the difference is that the second stage allows for the user to learn techniques as well at Genin rank with the exception of the Special technique. Their weights go up to 75 [Seventy Five] pounds. That is a total of 300 [Three Hundred] pounds.

XXXXXXXXRegular Techniques:

● Lightning Tip: This technique is more used for chakra training, though in some cases the best of the best Lightning Tiger Style users are able to maximize this to it's final level of destruction. The user channels their chakra in to the blade and leaves it there. They then carefully manipulate their chakra, sending it forward to the tip of the blade, and making it levitate off of the tip, as well as mold it in to a single medium sized ball. When this ball touches something without extended knowledge of the use, the ball simply dissipates. [D-Ranked]

● Weighted Dodge: This technique is a passive technique. When training with the second stage's weights, the user will attempt to be able to dodge attacks coming at them, and will also need to learn this when they are just getting used to the extra fifty percent increase in weight. This is the basis to the additional strength increase when becoming accompanied to this stage of the Sword Style. [D-Ranked]

XXXXXXXXSpecial Technique:

●Lightning Cub: The Lightning Cub technique is created by the user charging their blade with chakra, and jumping backwards away from their opponent. When they are away from the foe, they jump in the air, and fall downwards. As they fall downwards, they turn the blade downwards so that it stabs in to the ground. Once it does this, the chakra is released in an outwards lashing-like slash. It goes from the ground up, flying out towards the opponent. However, before it reaches the enemy, the lightning 'jumps' forward at the intended victim, and a small lightning cub is created from the formation of the lightning. The cub has the ability to lash outwards, creating cuts through the air like a Tesla coil would. The lightning that hits the opponent, isn't deadly, but is strong enough to knock the opponent down and cause temporary paralysis in the specific limb it hit. [C-Ranked]

Stage Three

The third stage of six in this style gives no gain in strength, stamina or speed. The user of this style is now becoming more acquainted to the training methods, and is finally ready to learn the ways of becoming a master. Some call this stage the 'true beginning' of this Style, and it's tremendous powers. Chunin and Below have a hard time defeating anyone using this style unless they are of the Kenjutsu Class. Weights are increased to 100 [One Hundred] pounds, thus totaling 400 [Four Hundred] pounds.

XXXXXXXXRegular Techniques:

● Razor Lightning: The user charges their blade up with lightning, and readies themselves to attack. The proper way of training this technique is to first cut a tree in half. Then, stab in to another tree, splitting it down the middle, but not completely destroying it. The third step is to go to a boulder, and slash it in half, diagonally. The user can then attack the opponent with the lightning addition, by slashing the blade. It can cut through the opponent's attacks as long as they are not wind, and D-Rank or below. If C-Ranked, it simply clashes with the technique, canceling it out. If Doton is what it is clashing with, then up to B-Ranked it can negate/cut through. [C-Ranked]

● Speed Jab: The Lightning Tiger style really isn't speed oriented, but this technique is one of the couple that uses the weights to help with their speed. When they remove the weights, this technique should be almost as fast as a blur, but not quite. The user charges their arms, hands and eyes with chakra allowing them to see the opponent and react faster. They then use the modification to jab at the opponent with their blade, causing small to large cuts on the surface, or could stab the person in the heart if the opponent isn't careful. People with the Sharingan can easily defend against this. [S-Ranked]
[Note: Can only be used once per battle]

XXXXXXXXSpecial Technique:

● Numbing Defeat: An addition to Speed Jab, the Numbing Defeat technique was created when the user channels chakra not just to their body parts, but to their weapon as well. As the blade moves swiftly to hit the opponent, when it hits the opponent they are completely unaware. The reason for this is because of the lightning causing an instantaneous numbing affect. The attack when aided with this extra chakra becomes extremely hard to see. If the user is S-Ranked or above in Speed, it's almost like a blur attacking. However, the people of this style are unused to such speed, and also has a chance of confusing them if they have not mastered the style. [A-Ranked]

Stage Four

In this stage, the user gains an upgrade in stamina. There is a choice between a buffer in speed or a buffer in stamina, the user picks which one. For each one, they gain One [1] single rank up. The second last stage in this Style, gives not one Regular Technique, but a single Special Technique. When training for this Stage, the user must train lifting large rocks, trees, heavy things to gain their strength, and will need to do exercises which work out whichever upgrade the person chose. The weights are increased to 150 [One Hundred and Fifty] pounds, thus totaling a whole of 600 [Six Hundred] pounds.

XXXXXXXXRegular Techniques:

● N/A

● N/A

XXXXXXXXSpecial Technique:

● Lightning Devastation: Becoming nearly a master of lightning, the user can now manipulate their lightning abilities with their sword to that of great lengths. The user will move around the opponent(s) and will begin to confuse them. Before long, after one post, the user will lift their chakra filled blade in to the air. They then slam it in to the ground, creating a wave of electricity to shoot out in a V-like formation. It creeps along the ground, and then when it nears a person, it jumps out and attacks them in the formation of the Lightning Cub. The Cub will then slam them in to the ground, and will cause numbness through out the opponent's entire body, paralyzing them for a single post. The ground is not just burnt, but also torn up. If this technique is used against a building, it would surely decimate it. [A-Ranked]

Stage Five

The Final Stage of Lightning Tiger Style. This stage offers an additional final boost in Strength, going up by One [1] whole rank. There are two regular techniques in this style, an the ultimate technique as the special technique. After learning the special technique for the first time, it tears the muscles in the arm, fractures the forearm, and causes burn marks in the form of lightning along the forearm. Weights are increased to 300 [Three Hundred] pounds, totaling a whopping 1,200 [One Thousand Two Hundred] pounds. If battling someone from this stage, they surely will be destroyed.

XXXXXXXXRegular Techniques

● Dance of the Felines: In tribute to the felines of the Shinobi World, the user will begin to make a dance out of their swordplay, and will create a show for the opponent, though it will look like they are aiming to hit. However, since this technique requires no lightning chakra in the sword it looks like the user is just using the sword. The chakra is mustered up in the hands. After two posts of playing around [dancing around with the blade and making 'fake' attacks], on the third post the user will make their final slash, and out from the sword will look like a 'claw' is cutting through the air. Four powerful slashes of lightning will rip through the air, and will crush through almost anything in the opponent's way. By anything, it is considered tough substances/materials such as reinforced steel, as well as techniques that are the same rank or lower.[A-Ranked]

● Concentrated Lightning Devastation: Like the other technique, the user moves around the opponent, but instead of attacking the group, this is targeted towards one single person. The user stabs their lightning enhanced weapon on to the ground, and lightning will rip through the ground tearing it up. This technique moves extremely quickly, making it very hard to miss with it. When the lightning nears the person, a tiger jumps up instead of a cub, and attempts to attack the person. Any metal on the person just makes it easier for the person to get hit by this technique as it acts like a magnet sort of. When hit by the tiger, the tiger leaves third degree burns and is able to rip through flesh. However, the entire body is numb for three posts and is paralyzed for one. [S-Ranked]

XXXXXXXXSpecial Techniques

● Lightning Tiger: The user begins to muster up Lightning Chakra in to their Tanto, for almost two minutes [2 Posts]. While doing this, the user is mustering their chakra in to the Tanto so that it's covered in the chakra, looking like the blade is made of the pure chakra. Then, the user jumps backwards, lifting the blade in to the air. As they fly backwards, or move backwards, they throw it downwards, creating a slash. It rips through the air, flying towards the opponent. Then, that is just the beginning of the attack. An after image will appear of a massive white gold tiger, moving around the battle field, ripping up the ground that it touches, completely destroying it. It then charges at the opponent, with the strength of the Afternoon Tiger, and attempts to flow past the opponent, picking them up within the lightning. If in fact they are caught by this massive tiger, it will toss them around inside of the tiger. The muscles of the inside of the victim are constantly shocked with the lightning, thus tearing the muscles and causing them to over work themselves, exhausting the hit person beyond the point of being available to move. The after effects are almost like that of opening the Seventh Gate of the Eight Celestial Gates for the opponent. Can only be used once per battle. [S-Ranked - Forbidden]

Special Drawbacks: After the first use, it rips the muscles in the user's shoulders.

When used, the lightning rips through the muscles of the user's arms and numbs them, thus leaving them incapable of hands signs for Eight [8] posts. Also, Speed is decreased by Two [-2] Ranks for Six [6] posts. In addition to this, for the next Two [2] posts, the users nerves are shocked and disturbed, thus the signals are out of 'whack' making movement hard, and unpredictable.


 

[XxBlack_FlashxX]

Style Name: Gouken no Nakkuru Hocho - Strong Fist of the Knuckle Knife


Speed, Power, Close-Quarters

History:
This style was developed by an old Kumogakure-nin who was a master at Shuurai Tekken Do. The shinobi was not fully satisfied by simply using his hands. He wanted to find a way he could incorporate the basis of the fighting style into one which wielded weapons as well. So he set out and spent years developing the style on his own, recording everything into a single scroll. Over time the scroll was found and duplicated so others could wield the style as well.
Style Requirements: A set of Knuckle Knives.
Movement Description:This style is based upon boxing like motions: quick steps and movements, and strong/fast upper body.

Stage: Stage One(Academy) - The Basics: Power
Stage Description: During this stage the practitioner begins to become comfortable with the style and its movements. It's full of basic striking capability but focuses upon the power of the punches which will in turn enhance the cutting capability of their blade. The main movement of this stage are hooks, sluggers, uppercuts, etc.
Stage Powers: Strength. The practitioner's punches find themselves to be much stronger than before. The power packed behind the punches are capable of reaching an entire rank up in power.
Stage Training:The training for this stage is simple. The practitioner will pound away at tree, training posts, etc. with his blades equipped. This allows them to get used to the feel of their blade and the power behind their attacks.
Stage Jutsu:N/A

Stage: Stage Two(Gennin) - The Basics: Speed
Stage Description: In this stage the practitioner focuses upon the speed of which his punches are thrown. They begin to combine the power from their previous training with the speed within their current training to create more devistating attacks.
Stage Powers: In completing this stage the practitioner's punches become faster by a rank. His moves now consist more than just sluggers but also straight, swift jabs.
Stage Training:Like before the practitioner will merely attack a training post or tree with a barrage of punches. He focuses on the rapid succession of his attacks and the quick snap jabs for faster striking. As he does this he wears fifty pound weights upon his wrists or forearms.
Stage Jutsu: N/A

Stage: Stage Three(Chuunin) - The Basics: Footing/Dodging
Stage Description: This is a stage in which the practitioner trains in his dodging and foot movement capabilities. After learning this stage the user tends to be light on his toes and hops about a bit.
Stage Powers: After mastering this stage the practitioner becomes light on his feet. He is able to move his entire body at speeds of a rank higher than his own. He begins to use quick, minute dodges such as side-stepping and mere motions of the upper body such as ducks and slight leans to the back. His reactions become a tad bit faster for he is able to recognize the movements of the body.
Stage Training:
In this stage the user will wear ankles weights, fifty each, and a chest weight which adds up to one hundred pounds itself. The user will pair up with another whether it be a clone or another shinobi and allow the clone to begin to attack him. He will attempt to dodge the attacks of the shinobi without counter-striking.
Stage Jutsu: N/A

Stage: Stage Four(Jounin) - Placing It All Together: Combination
Stage Description: In this stage the practitioner will begin to practice on combining all of his currently learned moves into one style. He'll begin to chain strikes together instead of simply throwing a punch here and there.
Stage Powers:The practitioner will now be able to throw a barrage of attacks instead of a mere one-two. His punches will begin to follow up one another, sinking his blades into the flash of his opponent many times over.
Stage Training:The practitioner will start off by simply using a single target such as a tree or training post. He will practice linking his punches together while also moving about the target.
Stage Jutsu:
Name:Hien - Flying Swallow
Description:
Feeding his chakra into his knuckle knives, the practitioner will extend the length of his blades. An extra extension of invisible chakra will create a sharp edge that functions like the normal blade itself. Seeing his knives his opponent may misjudge how far they need to move to avoid an incoming strike. Even if they manage to avoid the metal portion of the blade, the chakra portion may cut into them as well.

Stage: Stage Five(Sannin) - True Style of the Fist
Stage Description: In this stage the practitioner begins to learn a set of techniques which will aid him while using the style.
Stage Powers:The techniques learned within the stage.
Stage Training:The training for the stage is simply to learn all of its techniques. It will be then that the style will be truly mastered.
Stage Jutsu:
Name: Gourai - Strong Thunder
Description:
This technique is one which enhances the cutting power and capability of the knuckle knives which the practitioner wields. A chakra similar to that of the lightning element coats the blade. This allows the blade to be so sharp and precise it can slice through even the hardest of metal, even able to pierce a half-inch of diamond.

Name: Girochin - Guillotine
Description:
In this technique the practitioner aims to decapitate his opponent with a single strike. The practitioner throws two sluggers at neck level with both hands. They are careful to make sure their fists do not connect but they are about and inch from the neck instead. This allows the elongated part of the blade to hack through the neck of the target. This technique is rather quite a surprising one for they tend to step back to avoid a punch to the jaw only to find that they're now headless. This technique is mostly efficient when used with Hien.

Name:Gorogoro Shotto - Scatter Shot
Description:
In this technique the practitioner produces high multiples of jabs, at least twenty - ten from each hand -, at the target. Their hands move at such high speeds that it seems like the user is throwing a quick one-two but rather he is throwing off twenty shots. If the user's punch connects with the target the target will take damage which equals up to a good ten punches. This is merely if one shot connects. If both blades manage to connect the opponent will be barrage with twenty, blade-aided punches.

Rensa Dai Ken - Chained Large Sword

Large Blade, Bound, Swift

History: This weapon style came to be formed through a man who had mastered the Large Sword Style of the Cloud. He found the Large Sword Style unsatisfying to him so he set out to create his own style which involved large blades.
Style Requirements: MUST have a blade that is roughly six feet in length(the blade itself). This can be a giant cleaver sword, an extremely long katana, or even a large scythe(wouldn't recommend the last two for this style). The swords must have some type of connection to the hilt whether it be a chain link or a simple cloth.
Movement Description: The movements of this style are wild and dynamic. They are mostly defensive type moves. The style is not limited to the length of the blade for it is used to seek out a bit of range to help weapon users in ranged combat.

Stage Description: In this stage the wielder begins to learn how to wield his sword by the link which is bound to the hilt of the blade.
Stage Powers: The cutting capability, speed, and power are the same as before only now the user is adjusting to a new way of using the blade. He is limited to swinging the sword in the three basic ways: diagonally, horizontally, and vertical.

Description: In this technique it is the actual user which is spinning. He begins to spin about while holding the blade's chain. The blade begins to hack away at everything within it's radius. Anything within a meter radius of the extent of the blade would be blown back by the torrential gust of winds which it creates. The technique got its name for when it is used the user looks like a mini-tornado.



Stage: Stage Nine - Anchoring (Jounin)
Stage Description: In this stage the wielder uses a completely new concept to the blade rather than the constant spin. He begins to use the chain to strike and bound his opponent, or even for other things, to his own advantage.
Stage Powers: The wielder learns to swing the heavy blade at the opponent in a horizontal fashion in a way which it does no cut them. Instead the blade passes by the target and the chain is what strikes. The blade flies around the target and bounds them up within the chain leaving the user to do what they'd like with them. Whether it be yanking them towards them or merely leaving them bound. The wielder also learns how to throw the blade of to the side, possibly into the ground or even a tree, and use the cord to yank themselves out of harms way.
Stage Training:Using a training post, or whatever's at their disposal, the wielder will practice using the blade to "lasso" their target. They will also practice throwing it into the post and pulling themselves forward. Five posts.

Stage: Stage Ten - Double Trouble (Sannin)
Stage Description: This stage allows for the user to take on dual swords at one time to create for twice the amount of damage. Everything they have currently learned is now twice as deadly as before.
Stage Powers: You are now capable of wielding two of the blades at once. The possibilities of attacks are now endless.
Stage Training: You practice placing together everything which you know of with the two blades. You practice combinations and so on. Nine posts. Three for the technique.
Stage Jutsu:
Name: Chop Suey
Description: The user of the technique takes his two blades and begins to spin them in a fashion of which they are placed slightly in front of him. From about the formation would look similar to an upside down "V" or arrow head. As he spins the blades an irritating screech can be heard from the constant connect of the blades. This screech is enough to give the target a sever migraine to the point of which he can barely concentrate. The user then flies towards his opponent with the intent of running straight through him. If the user manages to connect the target would be literally ripped to shreds. The techniques is so efficiently the user can barely tell that he struck his target.
