Doton with Tybone

[Necron]

Ao is waiting on a rocky field.

[Tybone]

*arrives on the rocky field which appears quite rocky*

Alright, have you had any previous training in the earth element?

[Necron]

None yet sempei... But earth manipulation was always intriguing to me

[Tybone]

Alright, start off by telling me everything you know about the earth element, include it's strengths and weaknesses and also by using this thread for reference; http://www.narutobase.net/forums/sho...d.php?t=195074 tell me against which KGs it's either strong or weak.

link is broken

The earth element is solid and durable. It includes controlling the environment, field, gravity (for some jutsu) and even sometimes creating earth with the help of chakra.

It is strong against water, as it absorbs it, and weak against lighting which pierces through it/cuts it/breaks it's structure).

It is strong against the rain element (as it's basically water), Ice, as it can shatter it, Dark release, as it is not energy, and even if dark release absorbs it's chakra, the matter will still be there, Scorch, as it can't dehydrate earth, which is already dehydrated, Steam, as earth is too thick to be affected by it, effectively can defend from attacks of Magnet release (metallic objects).

It is weak against Lava (with which it is infused, thus producing more lava), Wood (breaks the earth, as it is more dense), Crystal (same reason as Wood), Storm (as it involves lighting, to which earth is weak), Steel (same reason as wood), Boil will melt the earth, Blast will blow it away, Sand can be manipulated to be stronger than earth, Bones are hard and can destroy earth, Dust release will reduce earth jutsu to... well dust <- self explanatory

Finally, like all elemental jutsu, it is strong against raw chakra.

Well put.

Let's move on to the first technique;

Rank: D
Type: Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Descripton: Creates small pillars of earth, small tools, and small shields of earth

This technique is commonly used in some battles for a specific purpose. I want you to focus your earth natured chakra and then channel it into the ground and mold it together with the pre-existing earth. then through manipulation form a small construction of earth, it can be nearly anything as long as it's shape is not too complicated.

I'd like you to list one advantage and one disadvantage of this technique, also tell me how you might use it in a battle.

I focus my doton chakra to the ground, infuse it with it, and then I rise a small pillar of earth from the ground, grotesquely resembling a female body...

-I have to work on my art class

An advantage of this jutsu is that it can be performed below the opponent to silently stab him. A disadvantage is that it will make small tremors, hinting to the opponent what's coming. In battle I can use it to propel myself away from an incoming attack by using the pillars to push me away, stab the opponent silently, or create a weapon out of earth, if I happen to be disarmed.

Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user, emerging from the ground below the target area, pulls down the opponent so that only their head is above ground. Unable to move, the opponent can easily be decapitated or tortured.

For this technique I want you to focus your earth chakra throughout your body and dig yourself into the ground, be sure to maintain your chakra as you might suffocate otherwise and dig yourself a way towards the ground below my clone -creates a clone-, then have only your hands emerge from the ground which then are used to grab onto the ankles of my clone and pull him down into the ground until only his head remains visible form the surface. From there torture him a bit~

State an advantage/disadvantage for this technique and a way you might use it in an actual fight.

State an advantage/disadvantage for this technique and a way you might use it in an actual fight.

I first coat myself with doton chakra, and using it, I get into the ground, digging a path to right under my opponent with it. This is done very quickly... When I am right under the clone, I have my hands exit the ground, I grab the ankles of the gone and drive him underground, completely immobilized, except for his head, which is the only part of his body that's above earth surface. Then, I exit the ground, and squeeze a lemon in his eyes.

An advantage is the element of surprise and the fact that the opponent is immobilized A disadvantage is that, wile I'm under the ground, I have to continuously use doton chakra, so if I use any other jutsu I'm dead. Also, in case my opponent knows I'm underground, if he uses chidori nagashi (or any other raiton that can hit underground) it's a sure hit, and I'll probably die from the ground collapsing on me.

To use it, I would first use a smoke bomb, so my opponent would have no way to know I'm underground...

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.

For this technique pick up a small chunk of rock and channel your earth chakra into the rock, then through manipulation soften the rock and allow it to become thinner yet longer, forming a staff and then harden it once it's fully formed. You can then use the staff to engage close combat or throw it towards a target with pinpoint accuracy, this time I want you to throw it towards my clone and hit him straight on the nose.

State 1 advantage and 1 disadvantage if you were to use this technique.

I focus my doton chakra to a rock, as I grab it. I then use shape manipulation, and change the shape of the rock into that of a staff. I then target your clone's nose with the stuff, and throw it precisely there.

An advantage of this jutsu is that rock is harder than earth, thus it will be more lethal. A disadvantage is that this jutsu is less flexible than the doton no jutsu.

I would use this jutsu in battle, if I wanted to pierce a thick surface with a melee weapon/ physical attack rather than with an energy based attack. Useful against meiton users...

I first focus my doton chakra to my right arm, and then I release it into the atmosphere... As the chakra goes in the atmosphere, it materializes into solid rocks. Those rocks are thrown into a ring pattern, and towards the clone

An advantage of this jutsu is that it can hit on a great scale. As disadvantage is that a wind jutsu can throw the rocks back at me.

In battle I would use it to hit multiple opponents, especially if I was airborne or for some reason I needed to create stones...

[Tybone]

Okay good, we're done with D-Ranks.

Now I want you to create a move as if you were fighting in an actual battle using atleast one of the moves you just learned and any other moves you know.

[Necron]

*I first create small spikes of earth right under the feet of my opponent, piercing them, and causing him to be unable to move/run away. The spikes continue growing towards the torso of the opponent*

*I then perform a single hand seal, and cause my opponent to loose his sense of sight.*

( Kokuangyo no Jutsu ) - Bringer-of-Darkness Technique
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user makes one handseal, causing the opponent to believe they have been trapped in a world of infinite darkness, where their sense of sight is useless. It is capable of affecting multiple targets within range. However, it does not negate their other senses.

*I then throw some raiton infused shuriken towards both his eyes, and then I focus some lighting chakra to the sky, and strike him with a thunder bolt from a cloud above us*

(Raiton: Ikazuchi no Kiba) - Lightning Release: Lightning Fang
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid

Range: Mid/Long
Chakra Cost: 15

Description: After performing the Rat hand seal, the user to control multiple sections of rock and move them around their opponent. The user then forms two gigantic sections that crush the opponent.

Focus your earth natured chakra and channel it into the ground, towards the ground below my clone -creates a clone-. Then as you mold the chakra form the 'Rat' handseal and raise several sections of rock around the clone which then merge together until there are two solid sections of rock left which converge into eachother crushing my clone.

Then as you mold the chakra form the 'Rat' handseal and raise several sections of rock around the clone which then merge together until there are two solid sections of rock left which converge into eachother crushing my clone.

I first focus on my doton chakra, and I channel it to the ground. i make it flow till the ground right under the clone... I then perform the rat hand seal and I raise pieces of the ground around the clone. As the sections collide with each other, they merge together and form only 2 sections, on opposite sides of each other, with the clone in the middle. The 2 sections then collide with each other like a sandwich, and crush the clone like the salami and cheese between the bread, reducing it to nothing but wight smoke...

An advantage is that, again, it is created below the opponent, and, until the ground rices, it gives no hint about what's going to happen. A disadvantage is that as the ground starts to tremble, the opponent will know it's a doton move coming, and will act appropriately.

I would use it after a suiton jutsu, to make it a risk for my opponent to use nagashi and dispatch the doton chakra in the ground.

Damage points: N/A
Description: The user changes earth into fine sand by channeling chakra into it, allowing the user to dig through it like a mole. While underground one can sense what is happening on the surface and use the information to launch a surprise attack on the enemy. Once can also hide deep in the ground, escaping to a depth where the enemy cant reach. It also appears that after digging, the ground can be returned to its original state, leaving no trace of where the user entered the earth.

Gather earth chakra throughout your body and keep it concentrated and at the same time channel earth chakra into the ground below you. Turn the ground into fine sand which allows you to submerge into it and travel through the ground, while travelling you're able to sense what is happening on the surface. Return the hole you have created when submerging back into a state which makes it seem as though nobody went underground while you're travelling.

Perform it and tell me it's advantages/disadvantages. Also, how would you use this technique in a fight?

I first envelop myself in doton chakra, and then focus some of it to the ground. This way, I make the ground thin, and have a sand structure. I submerge in the ground, and travel under it, wile I use my chakra to reshape the earth from were I passed from to become solid again, as if nothing happened. I then focus my chakra to the ground around me, and thanks to it, I can sense everything happening above me.

Advantage: The opponent losses track of were I am.
Diss: I can only use doton jutsu, as if I change chakra nature and stop using doton, I will be crushed by the earth above me.

I would use it if my opponent had no way to know were I am (after a smoke bomb), or in case I lost him myself, and need to sence him with some way...

I fist focus my earth chakra to the ground, guid it under your clone, and then I create 5 rock spikes that brutally emerge from the ground, and stab the clone. One comes from it's left, an other from it's right, one in the front, one in the back and the final one from right underneath it. As the clone is stabbed, it explodes in wight smoke.

+
It is performed secretly underneath the opponent

-
Opponent will feel a tremor, and will have time to counter

I would use it after I use a direct attack, to distract my opponent, and make him loose track of what's happening.

I first focus doton chakra to the ground, and make it flow till under my opponent. I then infuse the chakra with the ground under my opponent, and make a small tremor, shaking the ground, and causing my opponent to fall. All of this is done very quickly.

An advantage is that this jutsu gives no hint it's about to be used

A disadvantage is that it's non lethal

I would personally use it wile throwing some shuriken/kunai, one before the jutsu (to distract the opponent) and one after it (after his attention is shifted to the tremor).

Gather your earth chakra within your mouth while gathering some saliva and mix it together with the earth chakra to create mud in your mouth. Then spit the created mud towards my clone and as you spit it out apply manipulation in order to expand it and add force to it forming a thick globule of mud which would roughly be the size of a coconut.

Descripton: This technique allows the ninja to control nearby stone and rock. This can be especially useful if in a cave or a stone lodging. The technique can loosen the rocks and cause them to come raining down on whomever is trapped inside.

Get towards that cave over there and gather your earth chakra. Then channel your earth chakra throughout the interior of the cave. Most earth-based construction have one or two weaknesses in them and by using your earth chakra scan the inside of the cave and find one of those weaknesses, a spot which if messed with would cause the entire cave to cave in. Once you have found the weak spot loosen it causing the cave to cave in.

List this technique's advantages/disadvantages.

First jutsu:

I first gather doton chakra to my mouth, and form earth from it. I mix the earth with my saliva, and transform the earth into mud. I then spit the mud towards the clone, and, as it exits my mouth I use shape manipulation, to make the mud more voluminous, and manipulate it to give it more force and spinning motion. This results into the mud getting at the size of a coconut, and hitting the clone with brute force on it's face, and blinding it.

-Bleh, disgusting. Remind me never to use this jutsu... ever again... -_-

Advantage: Can blind the opponent, and is fast to use

Disadvantage: (Is disgusting) minimal damage (although the opponent might choke/start vomiting)

Second jutsu:

I first focus my doton chakra to the earth, and use it to scan the entire area. I sense some weaknesses to the rocks, and use the same chakra I use to scan the earth, infuse it to the weak points of the rock, and manipulate it to make small vibrations at those points. This results in breaking the weak points, and, as a domino effect, making the whole structure collapse.

Advantage: Can be used silently, and will catch the opponent by surprise

Disadvantage: Must have already an exit path, or the user will also be caught into the disaster.
