Ah, so much wonderful knowledge that could be revealed by a simple book. In such a large library, one small object such as this wouldn’t be missed… especially since the information was nothing more than the basics of the basics any shinobi would know. Academy jutsu- that’s all they were. It wouldn’t be missed… he’d return it when he was finished. Or.. Perhaps Azrael would take an interest in it. Either or, it seemed he’d be holding onto the material a bit longer than he had first expected. After adjusting the lenses resting upon the bridge of his nose, Kazbiel opened the book to the first page.

“Used to replace oneself with the nearby inanimate…” the man murmured to himself, crimson optics scanning the area around him. He’d placed himself in the nearest park, sitting comfortably on a bench with one leg draped over the other. There wasn’t much here, as it was rather late into the evening. There was snow… more snow… a bit more snow over there, and the occasional pedestrian that walked by. Needless to say, the living were much more appealing to practice this on, but he doubted they would be so willing. The clicking of his blades against the bench could be heard as he stood, his hand gripping the hilt as he unsheathed the katana, approaching the nearest tree.
With a swift motion, a branch was severed from the main part of the plant, landing with a thud on the white-covered earth. After simply staring at the dead flora for a moment, his hands came together, forming seals that would activate the tenketsu within his body. It took only a moment for his chakra to begin flowing in the needed manner, and suddenly, a puff of smoke enveloped the angel. The burst of air caused the cerulean tresses to flip about, and when he realized what had happened, he was in a new place. Specifically, he resided right where the branch had been, and the branch now where he had been.
’Simple enough…’ But it was best to always double check the supposedly ‘completed’ tasks. Seals were formed once again, and Kazbiel’s eyes settled on the target to swap with. Another surge of chakra throughout each limb, and the smoke appeared once more; the perfect cover up for such a magnificently simple stunt. Oh, but such a trick would be useful he was sure. Lifting himself back up to the proper position, he pat his hands along his pants and shirt, removing any traces of snow that may have decided to stick to the fabric. Back to the book, it was time to see what his next lesson involved…
Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Switch Skill)
Rank: E-rank, Supplementary
A technique that usually confuses the attacker. The user quickly projects themselves with another nearby object such as a plant (normally a section of a large log), an animal, or even another person within reach, leaving the opponent open to a counter-attack. In the anime, a scarecrow, a boulder, and even mud has been used as a body substitute, though this may not be considered canonical by few fans. A fairly common Jutsu, it is one of the basic Jutsu that a Ninja must learn before graduating to the Genin level. This technique, however, is not strictly limited to the Naruto series, as it is sometimes referred to as Utsusemi no Jutsu (Art of Body Projection) in other manga and animation series. A User can NOT switch with an enemy or a person due to the fact that everything is attempted base. You must attempt to grab the person first to switch him with you, before the technique can occur.
