Here, unlike the techniques leading up to this, flames now spring forth from the user’s entire hand.

Leaf Spinning Wind is very hard to dodge, since the movement is so fast the opponent won't probably know about the attack until he gets kicked and is already high up in the air. Hard for any ninja of your rank to counter or dodge this move.

Description: The practitioner delivers a very simplistic jab with the hilt of their weapon.
• Heavy Slash
Rank: E :: Simple
Description: A simple yet powerful diagonal-downward slash. Considerable force is driven out by both the practitioner and the blade, causing the less experienced to almost always lose footing and composure.

• Stepping Horizon
Rank: D :: Simple
Description: After becoming more accustomed to gripping their weapon, the practitioner should learn how to make use of the range and power that their blade provides. Simple yet vital, this technique is somewhat similar to properly swinging a baseball bat. With their hands tightly wrapped around the grip of the sword, the practitioner steps forward with their non-dominant leg before delivering a swift horizontal slice. Depending on the practitioner's upper body strength, this may still send them off balance.
• Falling Divide
Rank: D :: Complex
Description: The practitioner leaps at their target, weapon drawn overhead, and attempts to deliver a powerful falling slice. Although this technique is very unlikely to make direct contact with quicker targets, its amazing power for such a simple action is incredible. Not only that, but with proper augmentation of assisting techniques, the intended target could easily be held in place long enough to be cut in twain.
• Coiling Steel
Rank: D :: Complex
Description: A unique style of technique commonly used to mix-up opponents. The practitioner will begin to perform an action at a rather slow, drawn-out pace, showing powerful focus. In an instant, a surge of chakra is pulsed through the arms in order to allow the practitioner to deliver an irregularly fast slice or stab.

• Pommel Break
Rank: C :: Simple
Description: The practitioner feints preparation for a strike with a large windup, but swiftly changes to land a strong jab with the butt of their weapon.
• Comet Crash
Rank: C :: Complex
Description: The practitioner infuses their weapon with chakra before performing the same motions of the Falling Dive technique. The infused chakra is laced in such a way as to cause a form of energy-explosion when contact is made with a surface. However, doing so is a fragile art, and there is only a certain chance that the technique will hold. Should the infusion break before contact is made with a surface, it will erupt; causing a moderate amount of damage and blasting anyone in a small area, including the practitioner, away. ( Roll a six (6) sided die in the same post. Even, the technique holds. Odd, it erupts. )
• Churning Skewer
Rank: C :: Complex
Description: The practitioner imbues their blade with chakra before attempting to thrust forward in order to impale the target. If the thrust misses, the chakra is sent off roughly three yards in an attempt to catch the out-of-range target. Although at a greater range, this is a weaker form of the attack. If the target is successfully impaled, the chakra will spin outward, rending and rapturing the wound further.

• Iron Splitting Iron
Rank: B :: Simple
Description: The practitioner will attempt to deliver a powerful blow with the center of their blade to a structure that isn't properly supported or just flat out weak in construct. With appropriate distance and timing, this can almost always be used to deliver a lethal blow to the opponent or the opponent's weapon. ( Unnamed weapons are easily destroyed. For guild purposes, personal and unique weapons are not so simply broken. )
• Cross Divide
Rank: B :: Complex
Description: The practitioner concentrates chakra into their hands which slowly leaks to their weapon, creating an aura. The next three slashes made by the practitioner momentarily release counter-angled blades of chakra from the center of the weapon, resulting in the attack appearing in the form of a cross, or 'x'.

• Two-Handed Finesse: Accustomization
Rank: D :: Training
Description: The practitioner experiments with the distance needed to properly grip and swing their weapon. Although it seems idiotically fundamental, this is an extremely important step towards becoming a seasoned great-swordsman. Finding proper handling allows the practitioner to swing their weapon with more accuracy and power, while creating as little opening as possible in their own defenses.
• Two-Handed Finesse: Adjustability
Rank: C :: Training
Description: The practitioner should now have an understanding of some of the basic footwork of Fuu no Odachi, and is beginning to comprehend the necessity of strong steps in addition to strong attacks. However, these steps must be used in more ways than simple offenses. One cannot survive if all they can do is hope to keep their opponent at bay. This training is meant as a means for the practitioner to develop their own method of side-stepping and other such evasive maneuvers, while still swinging around their weapons.
• Two-Handed Finesse: Dominance
Rank: B :: Training
Description: The practitioner has, at this point, become so involved with his/her training that they have not even realized how big a difference has developed since the first time they picked up their weapon. With a little bit of adaption, they will now be able to wield their weapon with one hand, and be capable of performing almost every technique within this style thusly. ( Unless the technique specifies the need for both hands. )
• Two-Handed Finesse: Expertise
Rank: A :: Training
Description: The practitioner will continue their efforts in one-handing weapons that are traditionally usable only with both hands. By again performing the techniques of Fuu no Odachi while using one hand, he/she should now realize that the power driven out as such is comparable to that of their previous two-handed state. From this point onward, the act of using both hands with their weapon is no longer a necessity, but a way to greatly increase the strength of their abilities. ( Unless the technique specifies the need for both hands. )
