The Infinite One Sword Style (Mugen Ittōryū)
Advanced Taijutsu of the Hidden Mist and Hidden Leaf
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xocYeywG2cg
The Infinite One Sword style was created as a way to improve the relationship between the Hidden Leaf and the Hidden Mist villages. It was a joint attempt made by the Hokage Likkys Hatake, the Mizukage Zane Hajime, the Anbu Captain Tares Damascus, and the Pride of the Mist Luo Ushio. The sword style is a fusion of Leaf’s Lotus Taijutsu and training, Gentle Fist style, Mist’s Sword style, and the creation of Swords. Rather than relying on a single good quality blade the practitioner makes use of hundreds of katana scattered around the battlefield. The practioner does not care about the quality of the blades he uses, and uses a variety of moves making use of a single blade, or even multiple blades at the same time. Because of his reliance on hundreds of blades scattered around the battlefield the practitioner almost always has a blade, or multiple blades handy for use. He uses his swords for various purposes beyond normal melee attacking, including use as projectiles, paths to walk on, pins to hinder his opponent's movements, and also use for making multiple simultaneous attacks on an enemy or even several enemies. As a means to promote further relations between Mist and Leaf, the practioners must be trained at both Kirigakure and Konohagakure. Note that only a creator of this style can teach the final stage.
Stage 1: The Body Training
Academy
In the first stage of the style, the practioner does nothing but train his body by wearing weighted armlets and leg weights. The user trains by simply moving constantly and training sessions look almost like boxing matches, with the user having to constantly move around and dodge the trainer. It is believed that teaching one how to survive is the first order of business.
Stage 2: The Movement Training
Genin
After the basic body building is complete, the user then begins training technique. The user is taught how to keep momentum up, and how to move one move into another. This allows for stronger blows and more fluid movements. The user also learns how to constantly circle an opponent, keeping him on guard constantly. This is essential to using the infinite sword by moving constantly
Stage 3: The Sword Training
Genin
After all the hand to hand taijutsu training is completed, the practitioner is finally given a sword. Any sword will do. In this stage, the practitioner is trained in the art of the sword. By the end of the training, the practitioner feels bit more ease, capable of inflicting more damage and implementing more speed and strength. However, the user isn't at a level yet where he is extremely dangerous to anyone except a lower level taijutsu user or a genin without taijutsu training.
Stage 4: The Double Sword style
Chuunin
At this stage, the practitioner is taught how to use swords in methods never even thought of. The practioner is trained in many different forms:
Form 1: Balance…the practitioner is asked to stand and balance on the hilt of the blade on one foot while the blade has been stuck to the ground.
Form 2: Accuracy…the practitioner is trained on throwing a katana at an enemy. Usually a katana is not used as throwing weapons, but this is an essential part of the training. The practioner must have perfect accuracy by throwing the weapon at a bull’s-eye from 30 yards away.
Form 3: Dual wielding…the final form at this stage is the ability to wield two swords at once. This is only a small milestone in the sword style, but it is a step that needs to be taken.
Special Techniques:
Double Sword Technique
Description: With intensive training, the user of the style can learn to wield two blades instead of just one. This can only be done with katana or smaller weapons. When using two blades, the effectiveness of the user can double or even triple under the right circumstances
Double Shimmering Path:
Description: The practitioner throws two swords at once at high speeds at the opponent
Stage 5: The Summoning
Chuunin
At this stage, the user must seek out a Blacksmith to create hundreds of swords for him to use and seal them in a scroll. The user is taught the summoning weapons technique in order to summon the swords unto the battlefield. After this is done, the practioner is now taught how to use several swords at once. Using Mist Sword style, the practioner can wield two swords in hand at once, and grab several of them to use as projectiles. Using Leaf Taijutsu, the practioner can grab swords with their toes and use their feet to wield blades as well.
Special Techniques:
Tobidōgu (Flying Tools):
Description: This jutsu allows the practioner to store their swords in a summoning scroll and summon them whenever they want. The practioner is taught how to summon hundreds of blades and make them rein upon the battlefield. If the opponent is not careful enough, he can be skewered to pieces from the initial summoning.
Three Shimmering Paths:
Description: Using it, the practioner grabs onto three of his swords and throws them onto the ground creating a path. Then running along these swords the swordsman grabs onto a fourth one and uses it to directly attack the opponent at high speeds, using the hilt of each sword to push himself for more momentum
Stage 6: The Skewering
Jounin
At this stage the swordfighter is taught in the Hyuga’s gentle fist style. But not in the way one would think. The practioner is taught how to implement the blade with the techniques of the Leaf’s Hyuga clan and how to implement the several dozen swords into one giant attack.
Special Techniques
Addition Blows (1-12)
Description: The practioner moves at high speeds to attack his enemy. After each hit he will let go of his sword to quickly use another to let him attack from different angles while his enemy is stunned from his previous blow. This leaves his enemy covered with twelve swords
Sword Fang:
Description: Practitioner begins by hitting three swords standing parallel to each other. They are hit near the end, causing all three of them to slash upwards, in the manner of a "fang".
Vertical Line:
Description: Following his Sword Fang; all three swords momentarily hover in the air, where Mifune will then proceed to use the current sword in his hand to sequentially hit each, thereby launching each of them directly at the enemy.
Stage 7: The Massacre
Kage/Saanin
By this time, the user has practically neared perfection. His blows are perfectly straight and powerful, the user knows where and how to hit his opponent's body to inflict as much damage as possible. Using wide, sweeping strike the user is kept spinning and moving, almost like a top while fighting. The movements are so fluid that, even with making such wide strikes they still often hit. The weapons are more than extensions of the body now. The blades are the body. The pure grace and skill within the user is so high that it can only be described as awe-inspiring. By this stage…the user can effectively wield one hundred blades simultaneously by moving at such high speeds that they can easily strike, drop the sword, pick another and strike again. To master this style, is to be called a demon.
Special Techniques:
Multiplication Twenty Four Blows
Description: The practitioner will follow his Addition Blows with this attack. He strikes the swords that he left around his enemy from his Addition Blows which ends up cutting his enemy with the twelve swords all over again.
Stage Eight: Hells Ascension
Kage
At this stage, the sword master is said to have been granted his mastery over the sword from Susano-o himself. The shinobi's mastery over the countless katana he wields is incomparable to any other style around. A master of this stage has the capability of literally destroying an army on his own without so much as a scratch. When he moves, it is as if you were watching the wind dance listlessly. His movements are also quick and effective, not one strike made simply to maim. It is in this stage that the sword wielder has caused such a connection with the blades he fights with, that he has the capability of calling one to him from 100 yards away. Incorporated into this stage are the flips, tricks, and twirls which make him not only hard to hit, but hard to see. The swordsman is said to have invisible hands, capable of making it seem as if one were fighting ten katana wielding shinobi at once. It would take at least three jounin to effectively stand a chance against one of this rank. He is no longer referred to as simply a demon, his blades said to be forged in the flames of hell.
Special Techniques:
Yaiba Terekineshisu(Blade Telekinesis) Kage/Sannin Rank:
Description: As the blades are summoned into the battle ground, as long as the swordsman so much as touches one of them, it is instantly infused with a chakra mark. This mark, allows the swordsman to literally extend his hands and "call" a blade to each one, from 100 yards away.
Yaiba Kyuuten(Heaven's Blade) Kage/Sannin Rank:
Description: Burning his chakra into the blades on the battlefield, the swordsman can literally cause one hundred blades to hover and shoot towards an opponent, either all at once, or one at a time for five posts. In a limited fashion, the swordsman can control up to ten blades effectively in close combat, as if they were extensions of his actions and will. The latter of these two actions can only be done for five posts at a time, and a period of three posts afterwards must pass before it can be done again.
