Mist Sword Style Sword Description: The Hidden Mist Sword Style is one of more commonly used methods of assault. Practiced since the village’s creation, this style has proven itself to be both simplistic and effective…truly, a timeless classic. Traditional sword techniques are passed from Master to Pupil, but can be learned almost just as easy from Scroll. Rules: • Certain techniques can only be performed by certain weighted swords Double Side Rank E Simple The user swings their blade to their left, then to their right, or vice versa…easy Breaching Side Rank D Simple The user steps forward and quickly swings their blade from the right or left, due to the speed, this technique can knock opponents off balance Shifting Side Rank D Simple The user steps forward, holding their sword tightly, and swings their blade from right or left- bashing their opponent with the flat side. Due to the power and good amount of speed, the opponent can be knocked over rather easily • Can only be used with heavy swords Vertical Descent Rank D Simple The user quickly dashes up, seemingly disappearing- they will then fall from the sky, blade held however they please, in an attempt to get in a vertical slash Cap Break Rank D Simple The user will bring the hilt, or sheath, of their blade to the opponent’s knee cap in an attempt to momentarily cripple them. This technique can be performed rather easily while dodging or running • Cannot be used with heavy swords Enhanced Divide Rank D Complex The user will entrust the arm(s) they use to swing their sword with a light amount of chakra. For a short amount of time each attack the user performs deals slightly more damage and is slightly faster (Damage and Speed increased by a D Rank) • Lasts 3 posts Sharp Rise Rank D Simple The user adjusts their position so that their weapon is held pointing tip down. From this position the user is able to deliver a rather quick rising slash Sharp Dag Rank C Simple The user adjusts their position so that their weapon is held pointing tip down. From this position they will step forward and attempt to stab their target. If the stab is successful, they will continue by twisting the sword while its blade is still inside Dual-Wielding Stance Chuunin Minimum The user is capable of using a pair of swords to perform most techniques in the style, as well as some additional ones. This can result in the user’s potential in a fight doubling, or even tripling • Cannot be used with heavy weight swords • Requires 22 posts of training Twin Fang Rank C Simple The user will adjust their stance so that both swords point either inward or outward. From this position they will close the distance between their opponent and attempt to impale with both weapons • Requires two swords Twin Fang Sinking Rank C Complex The user will adjust their stance so that one sword points inward, and the other points outward. From this position, they will entrust each blade with a good amount of chakra, close the distance between their opponent, and finish by attempting to impale with both weapons. If the attack is successful, the chakra will be released, causing the opponent to fly back • Requires two swords Gemini Breaker Rank B Simple The user begins by flipping hold on one of their swords- so that one is held pointing up, and the other down. They will then proceed by closing the distance gap with their opponent. When the opportunity has come, they will swing with the upside down sword, attempting to hit with the hilt, followed by the blade, and finish by bringing the other sword into the (most likely) disoriented opponent • Requires two swords Murderous Intent Rank B Complex The user will apply a thin layer of chakra around their blade, causing it to generate a white hazy effect. This aura around the blade may not seem like much, but even if the sword is held still, the haze is always moving, making it appear that the blade is moving as well. In addition, all strikes that occur for the duration of the technique deal an additional D ranked amount of pure chakra damage • Lasts 6 posts Sharp Drop Rank B Simple The user brings their sword down at an incredible speed, capable of shattering stones into dusts and forcing anything strong enough to withstand the blow eight inches into the dirt. Though it seems incredibly simplistic, if the user does not know how to hold their sword the correct way they will end up causing severe hilt burn and bleeding upon usage Murderous Form Rank A Complex A highly advanced version of ‘Murderous Intent’…The user will apply a thin layer of chakra around their body, causing a white hazy effect to envelope their entire body. Just as the technique it is based off of, this will cause the user to appear to be in a shifting motion, even if standing still. Whenever the user dashes or performs Mist Sword Style techniques a trail of blurry afterimages will be left behind • Lasts 6 posts Gemini Drill Rank A Simple The user will attempt to stab with both swords, If successful they will then shift their hands from the hilts in a very quick downward fashion, causing both blades to spin in place. While spinning the swords cannot be adjusted or tampered with by non-elemental forces…Though this technique is typically used for flesh rending, because the user is able to abandon their grip on the swords it makes a nifty distraction for other attacks… • Spins for 2 posts • Requires two swords Merciless Drop Rank A Simple The user will grip their sword with one hand, and swing it overhead. They will then proceed by using their freehand to tilt the hilt inward, causing a faster, yet shorter ranged, drop of the blade. Most anything caught within this attack is shattered to pieces, even normally tempered steel. Because of its speed, weight, range, and drawback, this technique is typically used as a finisher • Puts strain on the hand used to begin • Can only be used with heavy swords Devastating Haze Rank S Simple An extraordinarily powerful attack which utilizes the effects of ‘Murderous Intent’. The user will begin by assuming a stance in which they hold their sword directly upward, they will then shift their sword in various circular motions, generating a solid fog of white which obscures the user’s position and movements. When the user assumes the moment has come, they will thrust their blade from the fog, in an attempt to pierce their target. Should they be successful, the chakra used to perform ‘Murderous Intent’ will flood the opponent, causing an additional A ranked amount of pure chakra damage • Requires ‘Murderous Intent’ to be active • Nullifies ‘Murderous Intent’ if successful • Fog lasts 2 posts

Shunkan no Hagane
Flash flood of flying steel Description:The Shunkan no Hagane style uses blades of all sizes to mold the flow of battle to the user’s will. This style is a modern adaptation of traditional weaponry practices, taking the facets from the traditional styles themselves and applying them to more recent situations. As such many of the moves can be executed with a variety of bladed weapons. The techniques can also be used with blunted and training versions of bladed weapons, but the techniques in the style lose the majority of their piercing and slicing power. The Instant of Steel style originated in a peninsula to the northeast of the Water Country and drifted slowly toward the Western lands and their Hidden Villages. Many of the practitioners gained fame through formal sparring tournaments, and as such the name of the style has yet to gain the fame that some others have; only those who actively watch or participate frequently in contests know of the practitioners and their abilities. Unfortunately, the style is hard to adapt in earlier stages for use in sudden battles, and is mostly used in duels. However, it is incredibly useful in almost any battle once higher levels are mastered, as the basic techniques become much stronger and faster. Notes:• “Finesse” refers to the ability to execute movements without excess damage, as in fine-point striking. • Techniques taught by Shunkan no Hagane receive no learning reductions. S t a g e O n e [1] ○ Basic Chop Simple :: E-Rank An overhead vertical strike meant as an offensive technique. Very basic, but it is a very powerful strike. ○ Forward Step Simple :: E-Rank A single step or series of steps forward, meant to add a great deal of power to offensive attacks. While it is quick, it is still one of the slower movements in the Style. ○ Backward Step Simple :: E-Rank A single step or series of steps backward, meant as an escape or evasion technique. While it is quick, it is still one of the slower movements of the style, and it is mostly used as a positioning technique. ○ Basic Stab Simple :: E-Rank The basic stab used in most blade styles. It is a plain forward thrust with the blade, meant to pierce skin and cause damage to the main body. ○ Basic Block Simple :: E-Rank The set of basic upper- and lower-blocks used with swords and other bladed weapons. It works best on the basic offensive chops and slices. S t a g e T w o [2] ○ Pivot Block Simple :: D-Rank The user pivots on the forward leg and deflects an incoming attack with their blade, setting them up for a highly effective counterattack. In addition, this movement sets the user up for a highly effective disarming technique, or even a throwing movement. • Basic Block learned. ○ Forward Grind Simple :: D-Rank After blocking an incoming attack or after the opponent’s block, with the blade of choice, the user grinds his or her blade toward the opponent on the blocked weapon. This movement closes the distance between the user and the opponent while forcing the target’s weapon to remain still. • Basic Block learned. ○ Deflection One Simple :: D-Rank In the early stages of an opponent’s Taijutsu or Kenjutsu attack, the user raises his or her blade and slightly alters the course of the incoming attack so that it misses, allowing for a quick counterattack by the user. • Basic Block learned. ○ Disarming One Simple :: D-Rank The user aims for a point just beyond the focal point of the opponent’s weapon of choice, be it metal or flesh, and gently guides his or her blade to that point. After it has reached this point, the user redirects the weapon away from the opponent, causing it to slip out of the target’s grasp. • Basic Stab learned. S t a g e T h r e e [3] ○ Calligraphy Simple :: C-Rank A series of fine-point stabs and slices resembling calligraphy strokes. The wounds they inflict are shallow, but very painful and debilitating. • Basic Stab, Deflection One learned. ○ Extension Simple :: C-Rank A technique that relies on the user’s skill with blades being more than that of a normal person’s. By swinging firmly and quickly, the air around the user’s blade shears and sharpens; this makes an incredibly powerful attack that can strike slightly farther than the blade seems possible of reaching. In essence, this attack cuts a few inches farther than the blade can reach. • Basic Stab, Deflection One learned. ○ Thread Walking One Simple :: C-Rank Utilizing their new balance, the user can now walk on threads and wires without much difficulty and without chakra. ○ Solid Footing Simple :: C-Rank When on the ground the user becomes incredibly difficult to throw off of his or her footing, in or out of stance. S t a g e F o u r [4] ○ Swordslinger Simple :: B-Rank The rapid changing and using of blades during a battle has become recently known as “swordslinging” within the martial world due to its resemblance to certain methods of using long-range weaponry. Within the Shunkan no Hagane style, however, this is a technique taken very seriously, and as such it is only given to those who have mastered the style up to this Stage and have experience using at least five weapons. The technique involves rapidly unsheathing, attacking, and sheathing weapons without pause, constantly changing mode and form of attack, and results in the user’s ability to use techniques without any extra physical cost. • Extension, Calligraphy practiced using at least five other bladed weapons. ○ Illusory Double Simple :: B-Rank A close range attack, the user goes for a direct stab at the opponent. By pulling the blade slightly back immediately afterward, the user can then strike another nearby point very shortly after the first strike. This technique is fast enough that those who are of the same rank as the user cannot see the second strike. • Basic Stab. ○ Sensory Information Simple :: B-Rank A passive technique that allows the user to judge the location of an incoming object or person, but not the direction it is moving in, based on sounds and disturbances made in the environment. ○ Twin Blade Simple :: B-Rank Due to the user’s strength, the air around the blade sharpens similar to the Extension technique. However, due to the user’s speed and proficiency with blades, the air blade hits after the actual blade with enough force to crack or shatter most blades. • Calligraphy, Extension learned. ○ Brush Stroke Simple :: B-Rank A series of quick cuts that eclipse the Calligraphy technique in both speed and depth, but are much more difficult to work with. The cuts now pierce all the way through muscles, and can cut in to bone. This technique can only be seen by people with a speed rank higher than the user’s own. • Calligraphy learned. ○ Hydra Strike Simple :: B-Rank An enhancement of the Twin Blade. Instead of only one additional strike, the user can now launch several in a row without any loss in speed or power. • Twin Blade learned. ○ Disarming Two Simple :: B-Rank The user aims for the point just beyond the focal point of the opponent’s weapon of choice, be it metal or flesh, and swings strongly for that point. Once the user’s blade connects, the opponent’s blade breaks in two and the hilt of the blade is sent flying. If the opponent holds on to his or her blade too strongly, the bone fingers in the hand(s) holding on to the hilt crack. ○ Deflection Two Simple :: B-Rank In the early stages of an opponent’s Taijutsu or Kenjutsu attack, the user raises his or her blade and alters the course of the incoming attack so that it is rendered useless, allowing for a quick counterattack by the user. ○ Advance of Steel Simple :: B-Rank A very quick forward movement that doubles the strength and effectiveness of all offensive and defensive techniques and makes them very difficult to dodge by anyone of the user’s speed rank or lower. S t a g e F i v e [5] ○ Shearing Simple :: A-Rank The user, because of the large amount of training he or she has now completed, can now operate blades with such speed and ease that the air begins to shear along the edges of the weapons when they are used, extending their range by almost a foot on all bladed sides. This effect lasts for ten posts. • Extension learned. ○ Thread Walking Two Simple :: A-Rank The user is now able to both run and fight while balancing on threads and wires, though doing these things at the same time is widely regarded as totally infeasible. • Thread Walking One Learned ○ Crescent Block Simple :: A-Rank A circular block meant to serve as an all purpose defensive technique. By catching the incoming attack and carrying it in a circular path on the blade edge, the user gains a great amount of control over the opposing weapon, enough to be able to drive it in to the ground or to easily disarm the opponent without the need for extra techniques or movements. In addition, this technique has great cutting power against soft weapons such as arms, legs, and anything made out of wood or bamboo. • Basic Block. ○ Defense of Steel Simple :: A-Rank A powerful defensive technique that is capable of nullifying elemental Ninjutsu up to C-Rank. By performing any appropriate block while Shearing is active, the user can slice through an incoming attack without his or her blade ever touching it. This technique works by shearing the material in the path of the blade, dispersing energy and matter in to the surrounding landscape. This defense is extremely effective against carried weapons of all types. Must be using a metal blade. • All Stage Three and Stage Four techniques, Shearing learned. ○ Sword Drawing Technique Simple :: A-Rank A quick drawing of the sword that operates as a slash and breaks through not only blades, but can pierce armor as well. Opponents without a speed at least rank one lower than the user’s cannot see or react to this technique. If using a two handed weapon, Opponents without a speed at least three ranks lower than the user's cannot see or react to this technique. • All Stage Three and Stage Four techniques learned. S t a g e S i x [6] ○ Final Words Simple :: S-Rank A passive technique whereby the user can accurately judge the distance, location, and speed of an incoming object or person based on the sounds made and the disturbances made in the environment. • All techniques prior to this Stage learned. ○ Vorpal Blade Simple :: S-Rank A passive technique that forces the user’s blade to act as if it were twice as sharp as it actually is. This makes it easy to carve through armor even without the use of techniques that do so, and those techniques become potent enough to slice through heavy armors. • All techniques prior to this Stage learned. ○ Movement of Steel Simple :: S-Rank An unbelievably quick movement technique that has a speed that totally eclipses that of the Body Flicker Technique, with the same range. However, it is difficult to control and can only be used in one direction at a time. This technique creates an after-image where the user had been standing. • All techniques prior to this Stage learned. ○ Offense of Steel Complex :: S-Rank From the ready position, the user swings the blade he or she has chosen at a given target, sending a wave of energy in the direction of the swing that slices anything it hits in the way that the blade would. The technique starts out with a range of 5 meters, but increases by another 3 meters for every rank of speed added to it. This means that a Genin using this technique would only have a range of 5 meters, but that a Kage would be able to hit something 18 meters away. • All techniques prior to this Stage learned. ○ Instant of Steel Complex :: S-Rank A change to the physical state that doubles the speed of all blade techniques and halves the user’s reaction time. This state lasts for ten posts. • All techniques prior to this Stage learned.

Santoryu
Which blade will you counter?
D e s c r i p t i o n:Santoryu is an unorthodox, but deadly sword style that originated in Kirigakure. Those that created the Santoryu were noted for their curious ability to utilize a third blade, held in the mouth for lethal, unpredictable attacks that left very few witnesses to spread tales of their prowess.

Nunchaku Kata
Whipping and whirling barrage Description: The nunchaku is a traditional weapon of the Kobudo weapons set and consists of two sticks connected at their ends with a short chain or rope. Though not typically used in a ninja arsenal, the nunchaku have spurted up every now and then, proving themselves to be both quick and powerful. Unfortunately, the effective use of these weapons when fighting other ninja requires much training and dedication. Through brutal training and realization of hand movements, the user often finds himself faster after a long day’s training with this type of weapon. Rules: • Some techniques require a pair of nunchaku. • Some techniques that require two, can also be used with one. • All techniques in this style require an [1] additional post to learn. • Each stage grants a slight increase to agility. S t a g e O n e [1] Thunk Simple :: Rank E The user swings one nunchaku underhand, as if delivering an uppercut, and catches it on the flip back. Dented Horizon Simple :: Rank E The user swings both nunchaku horizontally, one after the other, catching each as they come back around. S t a g e T w o [2] Pound Rise Simple :: Rank D The user swings both nunchaku forward up, one after the other, as if a double uppercut, and catches each behind their back on the flip. Because of the force, it is likely the first strike will cause the opponent to be disoriented and led into the second. Ring Bop Simple :: Rank D The user takes a step forward, shifting the opposite foot backward, holding one nunchaku at its end. At any given moment during this stance, the user will quickly swing in a full circular motion, smacking with both of their weapons. Because of the speed, this technique is also capable of knocking certain projectiles from the air. • Deflects light weight projectiles. S t a g e T h r e e [3] Breaking Combo Simple :: Rank C The user takes a step forward, holding one nunchaku by the end and the other near its center. They will proceed by continuing their forward stepping, spinning both nunchaku in rapid vertical circle motions. Snake Shield Simple :: Rank C The user holds both nunchaku by their end, then proceeds by swinging them both around their torso, generating a hasty parry and bludgeon perimeter. • Deflects light and medium projectiles. • Deflects Rank D projectile Ninjutsu. S t a g e F o u r [4] Infusion Burst Complex :: Rank B The user infuses both of his nunchaku with a light amount of elemental chakra, causing them to deal an additional D Ranked amount of corresponding elemental damage per hit. • Lasts [8] posts. Spinning Cane Simple :: Rank B The user takes various awkward steps forward, takes both nunchaku by their ends, and swings them around his body in multiple linear patterns. Ring Toss Complex :: Rank B The user holds one nunchaku by its end and injects chakra into it. With a light whip-lash style motion, he will let loose a spinning disc of pure chakra as if a large shuriken. However, the technique can also be adjusted by using elemental chakra, resulting in rings of fire or water, and so on. S t a g e F i v e [5] Eight Point Bash Simple :: Rank B The user charges forward, nunchaku ends tucked between armpits. When the time seems right, the user will attempt to unleash a combination of eight directional strikes. One uppercut, one overhead strike, one strike from the left, one strike from the right, a second uppercut, one diagonal up from left to right, one diagonal up from right to left, and finally a hard forward jab. Each strike is typically aimed for the head, as thus, if the initial uppercut lands, the remaining seven strikes should follow fine. Additionally, the ending jab offsets most opponents. Friction Motion Simple :: Rank A The user will continuously sling his nunchaku around himself, creating a 360º barrier, extremely effective seeing how the user may still remain moving. Any light or medium weight projectile that comes near the user during this period is deflected, if not simply shattered. When the user has finished his swinging, each nunchaku will seem to be giving off steam, and for a brief while, any successful attacks brought on by these enhanced nunchaku deal an additional D ranked amount of fire damage and can cause severe burns. • Rotating preparation requires [3-5] posts. • Burning effect lasts [6] posts. Twisting Dragon Simple :: Rank A The user will begin by holding one nunchaku at its end, and the other as they see fit. They will proceed by attempting to close the distance, and when the time arises, swing out the loose gripped one in an attempt to wrap the foot or leg of their target. If successful, the user will quickly follow by bringing the blunt end of the opposite nunchaku into the opponent, and finish by spinning and throwing the opponent into the air. Because this attack is so swift, and essentially a grab, it can be used as a quite lethal mix-up technique. S t a g e S i x [6] Dragon Fang Simple :: Rank A An anti-air technique developed to stunt enemies in their tracks. The user will hold both nunchaku folded and backwards, then stab at high speeds diagonally into the air. Roughly twenty strikes, each one with enough power to suspend a person in midair. The final strike is different however, as the user will jab one nunchaku hard into the target, let loose his grip on one bar, and slam the suspended into the ground. Voluptuous Dragon Tongue Simple :: Rank S The user will begin by holding both nunchaku folded over between his armpits, he will then proceed by creating in opening in the opponent's defense in someway. When the time has come, the user will harness all of his arm strength, causing veins to strain and ungulate. He will then swing his nunchaku at incredible speeds, forming loops, linear strings, and hard jab free-style attacks; all while shifting his feet to circle the opponent. Because of its speed and power, the movements will also likely cause friction burns. After the technique has come to a close, the user will have minor arm strength left, resulting in his ability to only use specific techniques with a single nunchaku at a time. • After usage, techniques are performed with one [1] nunchaku. • After usage, techniques above Rank B cannot be used.

Kaneude [Metal Arm]
Stage One: No Rank Requirement
When they first attain their Tonfa, the user is able to execute simple swings and punches, yet nothing truly fancy yet. They are able to use their chakra, yet not with the Tonfa, due to lack of practice. They need to get more of a feel for the weapon before they are able to do that. Stage One Techniques Burst Shot Rank D Using chakra, the user is able to re-enforce their punch with chakra, to make it stronger. Though, the range of increasing of the attack is minimal. It can crack boards of wood, but nothing more. The range of increase it around 5% of the shinobi's strength. Spinning Winds Rank C Again using chakra, the user will spin the tonfa around to make the longer end face forward. The user then spins on one foot, using the increase in strength, as well as the momentum from the spin, to cause a high strength hit from the end. Anyone hit by this will get a pretty bad bruise, and/or a cracked bone, but not a break. They will be pushed back about a foot, and anyone blocking it with a weapon will feel like they got hit by a baseball bat. Stage Two: Genin As the user becomes more accustomed to the Tonfa, they gain a much more versatile skill of being able to spin the tonfa in their hand, causing slight winds to build up. To gain this stage, the user must first train with their tonfa for a period of time[around fifteen posts only using the tonfa] Stage Two Techniques Pushing Winds Rank D Using chakra to build up in the user's hand, their strength increases by roughly 10%. When swung, the power from the swing creates slight winds, used to uproot dust and to slightly move a weapon off course(only a kinai or shuriken, able to be moved three inches at most) Boomerang Blade Rank C Using their ability to spin their tonfa, the user will spin the weapon quickly in their hands, using chakra to help with the spin. They then throw it, leaving a small amount of chakra attached to the tonfa. Using the ability to manipulate the chakra, after it hits, or misses and opponent, the tonfa will arc and come back to the user, like a boomerang Stage Three: Chunin By this point in time, the user is able to wrap their chakra around the Tonfa, and can easily move with it. The Tonfa is starting to feel a part of their arm, making it much easier to use, as well as maneuver while using it. The user, to attain this stage, must again train with the Tonfa, this time doing the training against a boulder, until it cracks. [Twenty posts of training with the Tonfa and then hitting a rock until it cracks] Stage Three Techniques Crushing Force
Rank C
By focusing a large amount of chakra around or into the Tonfa, the user can now punch right through wood like paper, and crack boulders, after training. The strength increase is now around one fifth the user's current strength. The move can be used like Spinning winds, this time able to push back kunai and shuriken easily, now able to deflect ninjutsu of Rank D or lower.
Bladed Arm
Rank B
Using the chakra wrapped around the Tonfa, the user focuses it into an appendage to the side, or the front of the Tonfa. It can be either blunt, or sharp, and acts like whatever the object is, either crushing or slicing what it hits. The size of the appendage, depends on the user's chakra manipulation ability, as well as overall chakra level.
Throwing Crush
Rank C
Using the same technique as Crushing Force, the user will wrap chakra around their arm, and then throw the Tonfa. The force that it is thrown at propels it forward, slamming against a person or object. If it hits a person and it is not blocked, it breaks bones. If it hits an object that is not made of metal, it breaks. Sine the move can crack boulders, it's only natural that it can break bones.
Stage Four: Jonin
By this stage, the user can now break rocks, and shatter bones. The Tonfa is an extension of the person's arm now, and can be used like the user's arm. Now the user can use their own element with the Tonfa, greatly increasing it's power and range
Wind Barrage: Burst
Rank B
Using the user's wind chakra, the user can use their chakra to increase their speed, striking multiple blows at once and in a short period of time. This allows a better overall effect. The user can also use their chakra to allow a better effect of Bladed Arm, making their chakra to look like an actual blade.
Water's Rage: Storm
Rank B
Using Water from a nearby stream, or any other water source(even the water from the air), the water user will then punch forward, like Crushing Force, and the water will then continue forward, blasting right into whatever is in front of it. Since there is the same principal as Crushing Force, with the high increase in strength, whatever it hits will most likely be crushed, or pushed far back.
Lightning's Palm: Current
Rank B
Using a current of electricity, the Raiton user will channel the current around or through the Tonfa, depending on what it is made of. When they punch, it will send a strong jolt of electricity through the object, or person. If the user also has the Fuuton element, they can use both Burst and Current, hitting many places at once and still causing a large shock.
Rock Cover: Hard as Steel
Rank B
Using the Doton element, the user will wrap Earth around the Tonfa, making it sharp or blunt at the end. The user will then have the ability to manipulate Earth through the Tonfa, combining it with other ninjutsu to make it a powerful attack.
Fire Storm: Searing Strike
Rank B
Wrapping the Tonfa in fire, the user can either shoot a fireball, or fireballs, from the tonfa, as well as swing the Tonfa and having a fire wave to emanate out from it.
Master: Blast
Rank A
Using a large amount of chakra in or around the Tonfa, as well as in the arm using the Tonfa, the user can launch the Tonfa forward, the longer end facing forward, especially while thrown. The force that it hits something...is astounding. For instance, if thrown at a tree, it completely goes through the tree, but stops as the handle hits the tree. This shows that the longer end went cleanly through the tree, not breaking the tree as a whole. By this stage, the user is almost a master of the Tonfa, as well as rapidly progressing in chakra control. If it hits a person, it does the same thing as if it would hit a tree. It has the ability to crush through rocks, which says something. When they are able to do this, they are ready to become a master.
Stage 5: Sanin
By this stage, the user is almost a master of the Tonfa, using it as more than a part of their arm, but as a part of themselves. They never have the Tonfa away from them, and can use it as if it were light as a feather. For this to happen, the user must be able to use Blast, to move on.
Blunt: Blade
Rank S
Molding their chakra around the tonfa, the user can either make the end of the tonfa sharp, or blunt. Whichever is used, will determine what it can do. If the end is blunt, it will have the same effect as Blast, but the chara will act as an elongated end, doing it at a much larger reach. the chakra will attack not only the outer body, but if the jutsu is used by a ninja with very good chakra control, or a medical ninja, can attack the inside as well. If the end is like a blade, the technique will be able to cut through weak metal. This means senbon, or light blades. The chakra in this attack is much more difficult to use, which is why most go for Blunt, rather than Blade. But, if utilized correctly, the jutsu is the strongest of the style. This attack, if used by a medical nin or a nin with good chakra control, can make precise cuts into shinobi.

○ Elegance
Description: The user expands a blanket of chakra in a 2 yard radius (12 foot diameter), allowing them to ‘sense’ when they are going to be hit by Taijutsu and allows them to react accordingly.

This blanket of chakra does not actually expend any chakra, rather it sets aside the total used to be reclaimed when the blanket drops.
○ Projected Wall Flower
Description: In order to begin, the user must catch the eye of their opponent with sight or fan connection. The user seems to flicker from their position, while in reality is nothing more than an illusion. As the Genjutsu begins to fade, a vine of chakra will wrap around the opponent’s legs, rooting them in place.

Because of the beautiful speed, the fans become more like rotating saw blades than anything else, able to cut through most organic materials, aside tempered metal and crystal. But, their power and speed is not their only benefit…because of the way these fans are tossed, they will return to the user even if they make full impact on the initial toss, operating more like a boomerang than anything else. However, if the user is not very well taught in this technique, it can result in their own hand removal…
○ The Fifth Akira: Complete
Description: The user begins by shifting one foot over the other, kneeling as they move forward bringing one open fan overhead, and the other in a lower swinging motion, mimicking the overhead.

○ The Sixth Akira: Duster
Description: After bouncing and catching their fan off of any surface, the user will perform three hasty spins, bending their leg straight up on the second spin. During these spins the user has complete motional control over their body (unless hindered) allowing them to move at normal speeds regardless of the terrain. Whence the third spin has come to a halt, the user will bend forward, slashing in a heavy downward motion capable of tearing massive sections of flesh clean off.

○ The Sixth Akira: Complete
Description: After bouncing and catching their fan off of any surface, the user will quickly line their fan with chakra, causing them to shine with a black aura. The user will follow by tossing the fan at incredible speeds capable of cutting through solid tempered steel. After catching the fan whence it has boomeranged from the initial toss, the user will spin anywhere from two to ten times, allowing perfect movement on any surface. The user attempts to close the distance using these spins, and when they have come to the desired position, spring out their hands- fans open. The horizontal slashing motion that is caused by the combination of spinning and erect arms results in incredible flesh rending power- additionally, should the blades of the fan be poisoned, the afflicted will feel their effects slightly sooner. Upon completing this slashing gesture, the user will tap their foot on the ground, echoing a hollow sound as a thin aura of chakra spins around them. The user will reset their footing to a simple sturdy stance, and place their hands to their sides, fans closed…The aura that was moments ago present will be absorbed by the user, resulting in a great boost of ability…
