Taijutsu Styles

[Shruikan Tenshi]

Kuro-Kirikurosuer Swordstyle (DarkSlayer)

History
A style that was lost during the age of darkness. Vergil revived it through his search of power. A style that is unique on a totally different level. The style teaches discipline, speed, flexibility and foremost balance. This style is said to rival the mist swordstyle, possibly surpassing it. Even the possibility of those who are learning it can summon swords that are said to be not from this world. Currently only Vergil knows the style of DarkSlayer.

Stage 1
The beginning stage which is the most basic, teaching how to use a sword swiftly and effectively as possible. A small degree of flexibility will be needed along with great accuracy. The techniques of this stage are not very powerful, but useful.

//Techniques//

Cross Slash: A simple yet quick technique. The user slashes their sword in one hand diagonally then by quickly twisting their wrist slash the opposite way diagonally , making an X like attack. This, when mastered, can be so fast it looks like its one motion. This can be used for two hits or deflecting one hit and launching another strike

Hilt Jab: Another simple technique, one meant for disarming or knocking the wind out of an opponent in close range and then follow up with any attack. The user quickly jabs the hilt of their sword in the neck, at the nose, in the stomach or diaphram. This is intended to knock the breath out of the target, leaving an opening to strike out at them and landing the hit


Stage Two
The second stage is where the fun begins. New techniques are introduced including the unique sword summoning technique. Some of the techniques are in levels, and the higher level cannot be learned without learning the lowest levels previous to them. In this stage speed and skill is worked here, skill being alittle bit of everything.

//Techniques//

Summoning Sword lvl. 1: The ability to summon magical swords. The user with this level is able to summon one magical sword, which homes in to impale the target. After impact with the target, or any other objects it may strike and impale or destroy, the sword shatters and turns to dust. This technique can be used every post of the users.


Stage Three
The third stage is more centralized around movement and defending. Speed and technique once more is being focused. One can practice this by putting weights on and run around as fast as possible, not just in a straight line but moving side to side, left and right, running up trees and running across water. It helps having someone throw projectiles at the user so he or she can practice running towards them and avoiding the attacks. This is the stage where chunins and higher can learn, genins incapable of continuing

Stage Four
The fourth stage is when the training gets more serious, and yet more fun once fully mastered. The next Summoning Sword technique level is learned here, as well as other unique techniques. This can be dangerous for opponents who favor close range fights or long range fights.

//Techniques//

Summoning Sword lvl. 2: The next level of the summoning swords, the user can now summon three swords at one time, which all homes in on the target. This has the same effects as the lvl one, just more swords are summoned.

Spinning Cyclone Blades lvl. 1: The user stands still and spins his or her swordhand, the sword spinning around between thier fingers ever so skillfully, the spinning is so fast the blade is unseen and a whirlwind like sound can be heard. This technique can deflect any projectiles launched at them from shruikens to D rank techniques that are projectiles. This can only be used once every two posts

Stage Five
The fifth stage promotes strength and speed, as well as technique. Here the swordsmen train using not just their sword, but the sheath as well. The sheath is usually extremely hard, which can be used to strike as well as to deflect attacks that are hand to hand. The styles of learning this can also be used with a second sword instead of the sheath, but this makes one sword shinobi still lethal. This also focuses on chakra control.

//Techniques//

Sword Glide: An odd technique but useful for swordsmen who cannot get into the air when their opponents are. They create a sword or use one that they currently have and jump on it, using chakra to fly around on the sword, keeping it attached to their feet. Based on the rank of the user will depend on how well they can keep balanced on their sword.

Sword Force Strike: Another chakra based technique for swordsmen of this stage. The user creates or uses their own sword and power it with chakra, then throw it at the opponent. The sword's speed is doubled from the chakra resulting in it's speed appearing a blur. If it hits the target, it sinks in and chakra acts like hooks, staying in the body. Every few moments, pulses of the user's chakra is released in the body, making the brain's control of the body confused causing the body to convulse painfully. After three posts the sword flies out of the body back to the user. If it misses or hits another object, it would bounce or repel itself away and spin back to the user.

Stage Six
By now the ones who made it this far is said to have great discipline, their speed is heightened and strength, as well as accuracy and technqiue with the blade. Chakra control is being worked in this stage, so one can utalize all of these attributes to their advantage whenever in combat. Was of practicing this is standing on water that is moving at rapid speeds without falling or losing balance. The next level of the summoning swords is also taught here.

//Techniques//

Summoning Sword lvl. 3: The next stage of the summoning swords, the user can now summon up to five magical swords at once which homes in on the target. This has the same effects as the last two levels of the summoning swords. From this lvl onward, unique techniques become unlocked to be used with the summoning swords. This can only be used once every two posts however

Spinning Rain of Sword: The user applies chakra into their sword and then starts spinning around, the wind around them rotates rapidly causing slices of winds thrown everywhere around the user, making the area like a blender around the user. (If fuuton is applied to the technique the wind expands much more, becomes faster and sharper slashes.) Outsiders looking at this could only see blurred sharp images of the area within.

Sword of Chaos: The user uses a post to store chakra into their blade, making it glow a firey chakra like appearance. The next post the user unsheathes their sword and slashes it at the target, releasing a wave of destruction in its wake. The direction is straight forward, and the aftermath is everything in its path was left in shreds and peices. (Wind can be used to widen range and increase power. Fire can be used to expand it and create more destruction.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Stage Seven
From this stage onwards, the techniques can only be learned by one who already knows it (unless a kage or sannin) as a result of these techniques being so powerful and complex. Before one can learn the techniques they must endure the training method to be even capable of handling the techniques. In this stage one can use a sword with elegance and yet incredible speed, being able to cut through thick statues of condensed steel with a simple flick of a wrist. Those watching would be in awe and at the same time fearful from the pure skill and technique used by the swordsmen of DarkSlayer. One could be surrounded by over 100 objects, swords, shruikens, kunais, and knock every single one of them out of the air before they touch him. (regular objects!). This stage and higher is said to be so strong it even makes demons turn tail and run.

~Training Method~
For five posts, the user must practice their accuracy and speed by throwing a large boulder in the air and smash it to peices, making it rain around 100 peices of medium sized rocks. They must then knock/slice each one of those peices with their sword. For the next five posts, one must stand at the top of a earth peak, the tip no bigger then a toothpicks, and have a slab on that tip. They must stand on it and practice strikes on that slab without falling off, for if they do its a 300ft drop. Noone can master this the first time, so discipline is learned during this method. And then finally, for the next five posts, the user must do the same thing, only during a storm, the rain and wind beating against them.

//Techniques//
Spinning Cyclone Blades lvl.2: The user stands still and spins his or her swordhand, the sword spinning around between thier fingers ever so skillfully, the spinning is so fast the blade is unseen and a whirlwind like sound can be heard. This technique can deflect any projectiles launched at them from shruikens to B rank techniques that are projectiles. This can only be used once every four posts . This is the advanced stage of the first level


Stage Eight
In this stage the swordsmen is said to be a master of all swords, being capable of using most swords with relative ease. Their movements are as silent as death and as fast as sound. The very first swordsman to be in this stage has been said to be from hell itself, annilating hordes of demon and walk out without so much a scratch, not even a strain of hair missing. To be able to be on one side of the field with a hand on the hilt of their sword, and the next moment on the other side of the village, sheathing thier sword as rows of columns collapse in half, the stroke so smooth and perfected the tops of the in half columns are as smooth as a polished table. Being able to manipulate the summoning swords to an unimaginable level. It would take a group of elite shinobi to even begin to keep up with the ones in this stage. One is said to be a true demon from the bowls of hell, unlike others who dare calls himself a demon or devil. This stage is said to be from the eight inner circle of hell

//Techniques//

Encirclement of Summoned Swords: The user summons five summoning swords which spins around them with the points outwards, creating a protective barrier around the user, threatening to cut up anyone who gets to close. The spinning swords will keep up with the user regardless of their speed. A switch to the technique though, if one gets close enough, by making a seal, the swords will vanish and reappear around the target, swords pointing inwards and spinning. The swords will move around them and keep up with them regardless of their speed. After a few seconds the swords will converge to impale the target. This leaves them very little time to avoid the strikes. Once the user has reached level four of summoning swords, they can use ten swords.

Storm of the Swords: Another technique used with the summoning swords. The user summons five swords that is spins around the user. The user then makes a seal and the swords fly up behind him/her overhead and aim at the target. They then fly off at triple the speed homing in. At close range this can be almost unavoidable. Once level four of summoning swords is achieved the user can use ten swords.

Demon Flicker: The user is capable of moving at speeds so intense its capable of almost teleporting. This technique is passive, but can only be used once every three posts. The flicker allows the user to appear overhead of the target, or an area around them. {Passive}

-----------------------------------------------------------------


Stage NineThe second to last stage of the darkslayer. The legendary demon created this style that surpasses any mere mortal man, and is said one can only achieve this stage once they have gone through hell and back. One here can manipulate the elements into the techniques. The final summoning sword level is achieved here as well as the unique technique Dark Judgement. The ones who reach this stage is said to be overall stronger then before, and its a matter of time before they become, truely, a devil. Those who witness the ones who reach this stage can only be astonished and filled with awe.

//Techniques//

Summoning Swords lvl. 4: The user is now able to summon up to ten magical swords at one time. They all bear the same effects as the previous levels, only with more swords though. This can only be used once every 3 posts. The user's elements can be tied in to increase strength and speed.

Dark Judgement: The user for one post focuses chakra into their sword and it glows with a black aura. The next post the user, whenever they unsheath their sword, stabs their sword into the ground and the black aura sinks into the ground. For the next three posts, a column of black energy fires up from beneath the opponent, which if it catches them they will be burnt inside and out with black flames from hell.

Hell's Massacre - Spectral swords: The final level of the summoning swords. The user summons up to 100 spectral swords which all hang in the air. Upon the user's command, they all home in on the target. They have the same effect as the summoning swords, and is capable of using the techniques of the summoning swords, though the same number of swords used will remain. This is known as Hell's Massacre from the swords death hellish appearance and the fact of how this can shred an army to bits within mere seconds.


----------------------------------------------------

Stage Ten
The final stage, the last gate of hell released. Those who manage to get to this stage is said to truely be a demon from hell, and is infact no longer a demon but a devil. The very technique from this stage turns one into a devil. The training method to be capable of learning these techniques is said to be inhuman, cruel, brutal, and infact one will truely expereince what hell is all about. Vergil reached this stage, which resulted in his personality of becoming very serious.

~Training Method~
In order to learn the methods and style of this stage, one must give himself to Hell's grip, they must first spill their own blood and draw a circle around themselves. Then, making a design within it and the center of it is a pool of thier own blood. They take out their most prized and loved sword and stab it in the center of that circle, which suddenly it catches on fire and the user is pulled into the gates of Hell. They appear in a platform of rock, fire blazing all around them. Their shadow takes shape and comes out of the ground, materializing into a dopplerganger. For the first five posts, the user must face themselves in a swordfight while submerged in flames, the weak hearted wil not be capable of handling this, and only those who are of a kage rank can substain such horror. The next step the user will be surrounded by winged demons from hell, and they lose sight completely. For the next five posts, the user must fight off these demons without their eyes, which if they succeed they regain that sight, which becomes even stronger then before, and their other senses are heightened. The final stage is the user is transformed into a demon, losing all humanity and themselves. They are still human sized though, the next five posts the user must control that side of them and fight off horeds of demons to escape hell. Upon completing this they will brewak out of the gateway and it closes. Those who complete this course is truely masters of the swords and truely a devil.

//Techniques//

Devil Trigger: Once the user has completed the training method, they can transform into a devil, growing wings, horns, red eyes and teeth. Their skin becomes the color of their chakra and for the next ten posts they can fight in this stage, their chakra, speed, strength, defense, reaction, and all other stats increases making them formidable opponents. After the ten posts the transformation wears off and is incapable of transforming again for another ten posts. This can only be done two times per battle.

Macabre Dance - One Thousand Slashes: The user glows with energy for one post as they are charging their chakra, getting in a stance. With sudden blinding speed, the user appears on the other side of the oppponent, sheathing their sword. A vicious wind blows through as suddenly slashes are made at the target. 100 slashes are made, then the user appears on the other side of the target, and the process repeats ten times equaling to 1000 slashes.

Gateway of Hell: The user opens their hand and a sphere of redish and darkness forms. The user throws it into the air and it expands outwards for 100ft, sucking everything including the user and the opponent into the sphere. Once it has reached 100ft, it is like a dome. But noone from outside can enter it. Within the dome the user and his opponents are in a platform surrounded by fire and darkness, demons flying around. They are now in hell. Until the user wills it away or is defeated, they remain within it. No ice or snow can be created or exist, for they are truely in the bowls of hell.
