Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

[Sir Hoshigaki]

Thank you for teaching me Kiritsugu, it is very appreciated.

[Adachi]

My pleasure. ^_^
So, first, why do you want to learn Earth?

[Sir Hoshigaki]

I would like to learn earth because it is a strong nature type that would allow me to facilitate more combination moves and it would allow me to affect the landscape duringg battles. I feel that it is one of the strongest nature type.

[Adachi]

Ah, good. Remember to be creative in all you do with Earth. You can mold it in any way as you wish, much like clay. Environmental is quiet important.
So, deriving off what you said, what are the weaknesses and strengths of earth and how might you use them to your advantage?

[Sir Hoshigaki]

Well
Earth is strong against water because it can contain and manipulate water, in the way like a rock in a stream, the water flows over or around the rock but not through it. Earth is strong against lighting because lightning can easily rip and tear through earth. You can use Earth to your advantage by manipulating the landscape to use with combinations and to protect yourself

[Adachi]

Earth is strong against lighting because lightning can easily rip and tear through earth. Think you made a slight typo there, haha. Good point, Water is also weak against Earth because the Earth absorbs it.
So let's start simple, no?
Much like what you said about transforming the environment, start first with this small rock.
*hands you rock*
Make anything you wish with it. ^_^

[Sir Hoshigaki]

*grabs rock*
I flow my chalra into my hand and start to form it around the rock. After I have covered the rock completly , I start to make my chakra shave down sides of the rock until it starts to look like a spike
(kinda confused how to do it)

[Adachi]

Okay, send your chakra into the rock and basically begin to mold it like clay. Into anything you want.

[Sir Hoshigaki]

*I start to flow my chakra into my hand then into the rock. After I flowed a sufficient amount inside the rock,I mold the rock into a small spike by molding my chakra to shape the rock*

[Adachi]

Okay, very good.
It seems you're getting the concept of it.
Proceed to create something offensive, defensive, and creative. ^_^

[Sir Hoshigaki]

*I flow my chakra into my feet and I use the same concept as I did with the rock, and I mold the ground using my chakra to create a small pillar in front of me that could be used to block attacks like kuni. I then pick up a large rock and flow my chakra around the rock and start to mold it into a large spear which I could use for offensive attacks. I then pick a slightly smaller rock off of the ground and again I flow my chakra around the rock and start to mold the rock like clay.*
*I turn around and mold the rock into a small figure and add eyes and a nose to it. And create a mini you *
"Creative enough!"

[Adachi]

A...mini me? LOL!

Descripton: Creates small pillars of earth, small tools, and small shields of earth

Alright, now let's dive fully into the Earth Element. For this next jutsu, I want you to send your Earth chakra within yourself and then become one with the Earth by sinking fully into it. Once you have, I will then place my clone on the place where you were originally. Then stick your hands out of the Earth, grab my clone around his legs, and then pull him deep into the Earth while pulling yourself out at the exact moment.

[Sir Hoshigaki]

*I concentrate very hard and concentrate my Earth chakra into my feet and I merge into the earth by moving the Earth chakra up my body while sinking in feet first. I continue to do this until I am fully inside of the ground

[Adachi]

*points at clone*

[Sir Hoshigaki]

(Ooops)
*As I am covered underneath the ground and your clone passes on top of me, I grab your clone by the feet, and I pull down while transferring earth chakra into his foot causing him to get pulled under ground. At the same time I am pulling I also start to head upwards so that the time I am out of the Earth your clone is suffocating underground

[Adachi]

Well, leave his head there! Finish him off now!

[Sir Hoshigaki]

( I see now)

As I emerge from the ground and dirt falls from my shoulders, I turn toward your helpless clone and I kick him in his head. After your clones neck has been broken, it bursts into a puff of white smoke that covers my face and body. As the smoke clears my face is seen with a grin of accomplishment.

[Adachi]

Excellent! *claps*

*grabs rock*
*As I grab the rock and my hand tightens around it, I immediately start to flow my chakra around the rock. Once the rock is fully coated in my chakra, I start to mold the rock like I did in the first lesson until it starts to look like a large staff. The staff is not too wide, but it is very long. After I have completed the staff, I quickly throw it like a spear toward your clone, which impales you clone through the chest.*

[Adachi]

Ah, well done. This is actually very much suitable for close combat too.
Next time, be sure to state which hand you use.

(Doton: Gansetsukon) - Earth Release: Rock Section Cane
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary/Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: This technique allows the user to take a small chunk of rock and turn it into the shape of a staff. The user can then use it as a melee weapon or throw it with pinpoint accuracy at their opponent. A variation of this technique allows the user to create several staffs and launch them at the target, but with less accuracy.

Now, proceed to hold out your dominant hand, charging Earth chakra into it to form rocks that you throw at me.

[Sir Hoshigaki]

*I extend my right hand out toward you, while I am extending it I am also starting to charge my Earth chakra in my hand. As the Earth chakra starts to form in my hand, I mold it into a large stone that takes up my whole hand. As it is just chakra at the moment I solidify the chakra into a rock. When I am sure that it is fully solidified, I throw it toward your arm, to not cause serious damage to my Sensai. As I think I have the hand of it I start creating more rocks by using the same process and quicken my pace as I chunk rocks at you.

[Adachi]

Um...how is throwing at the arm cause serious damage?

[Sir Hoshigaki]

Um...how is throwing at the arm cause serious damage?

I thought I said not to cause serious damage, because you didn't create a clone

[Adachi]

Ah, true. *derp*
Well, what vital areas would you strike the human body with with rocks?

[Sir Hoshigaki]

The head, and chest areas are the most effective places to throw them at, but more than anything throwing the rocks at the head would cause the most pain/ serious damage.
