"Touji Itonami "(Clay Life)
Rank: D, C, B, A, S ranked
Skill: Ninjutsu, supplementary.
Effect: Allows the user to give a prepped clay certain desired characteristics. Allow the user to control the clay creature. (See more below)
Special: Please refer to “Katsu”.
The speed at which a user can infuse the piece of clay is directly dependent of the user rank of "Touji Hyu-zu" (Clay Infusion). The The amount of bombs; the amount of clay slots used to make a bomb; the size of the clay bomb; the maximum distance in which a clay creature may travel; and the amount of hands required to make a bomb will be stated within the bomb itself. (See more below)
Drawback: The user must have prepped a piece of clay using "Touji Hyu-zu" (Clay Infusion). (See more below)
Description: Clay Life is the true culmination of what a clay creation can really do. Directly after the user completes the fusion process derived from "Touji Hyu-zu" (Clay Infusion), he or she commands their mouth the spit out the piece of clay into their palm. The user further refines and molds this piece of clay using their fingers as it rests in his or her palms. During this refinement process, the users taps into their memory bank and focuses on a desired shape and characteristic they wish to endow their clay bomb with. This selected design is usually something which they have seen and witnessed from real life already. Once they are completed with the refinement process, a small clay version of what they desired rests within there hands. This refined piece of clay may take the shape of a variety of creatures; from insects to birds to reptiles or even mammals and must be stated by the user. (Some restrictions on what type of creature can be produced will stated by the jutsu itself).

From this point on, "Katsu" is used to enlarge their clay creature to a desired size. While enlarged and fully formed, the clay creature will Permanently act in the same mannerism as the creature it is molded after and Only the mannerism of the clay creature it is molded after. A Clay bird will fly, A clay spider will crawl, a Clay fish will swim, etc. Information and restrictions on the clay creature is stated within the jutsu. This entire process of refinement is far quicker then the infusement process and posting time is not required in this case. The user rank within this jutsu determines which bomb he or she can create. If the user only knows the D-ranked version of "Touji Itonami "(Clay Life) he or she may only control D-ranked bombs. If the user only knows the C-ranked version of "Touji Itonami "(Clay Life) he or she may only control C-ranked bombs, and D-ranked bombs before that; and so on and so forth until S-rank (though some Bombs can state other wise).
Each clay creature has a varying enlarged size and shape:
Quote: D-rank Clay life: allows for the creation of creatures of the small size, no larger then a foot ball (6 inches in length, unless otherwise stated by the jutsu itself).
C-rank Clay life: allows for the creation of creatures of the medium size, no larger then a small table (6 in- 4ft in length, unless otherwise stated by the jutsu itself).
B-rank Clay life: allows for the creation of creatures of the large size, no larger then a table (4ft-8ft in length, unless otherwise stated by the jutsu itself).
A-rank Clay life: allows for the creation of creatures of the Huge size, no larger then a car (8ft-12ft in length, unless otherwise stated by the jutsu itself).
S-rank Clay life: allows for the creation of creatures of the Epic size, (12ft- in length, stated by the jutsu itself).

The clay creature follows the users will on a near telepathic level. The user dictates which direction a clay creature may go and also dictates when the clay creature will detonate. A clay creature cannot act and attack on its free will and requires the users command. It cannot move to areas which the user does not know or see and detonate thereafter. (This does not apply to certain clay bombs). The clay creature cannot travel great distances from the user or last indefinitely. The maximum distance in which the clay creature can move is the same as the user's visual distance (a normal human visual distance). As this distance increases, it becomes harder to control clay creature(s). Beyond the visual range, the user is unable to maintain control of their clay creature and they become useless as they cannot detonate (though some Bombs can state other wise).The users chakra that has been imbued into the clay creature does not last longer then 1 minute if not detonated (unless the jutsu states differently as well). Afterwards, the users chakra completely dissipates form the clay creature, returning it into harmless lumps of shapeless clay, regardless of what rank bomb has been created.
Limit: Sankuchi blood line. Must be learned Multiple time as the user cannot gain A rank without first knowing D, C and B ranks. Must know "Kuchisaki Seichuu" (Mouth Control)

Hanzaki quickly ran through the River Country, leaving a trail of scarlet blood behind him he had injured himself in his last attempt to create a new jutsu, and if he ever planned on getting revenge for his parents sake, he could not keep ending everything in utter disaster. Hanzaki scowled at his efforts, though he knew within his person that he could not give up or all his parents effort to raise him as a child and his own desires would be put to shame. Hanzaki silently went off the main path leading to his new hometown of the Twilight Village. " This isn't getting any easier, living here, I have to master this to get any further." he said to himself as he reached down to his clay pouch, looking to his hand where an eager mouth awaited its substance. Hanzaki had learned how to mold his chakra with his clay ever since he was a child, and was blessed with the bloodline as well. He was able to create miracles creations that could explode into a lovely display of flames and clay, something only Hanzaki could truly understand, beauty and all. Grabbing inside the bag he began to practice the technique he had tried before, this time though he hoped it wouldn't end in failure, nor with him being burnt to a crisp because of the explosion. " It's either all or nothing." Hanzaki stated to himself, boosting his own will and confidence a small but generous sliver, enough to allow himself to try once more.

Hanzaki open his bag of clay he used for practice, and took out the odorless substance that he would use to sculpt beautiful techniques. Gripping the cold and soft clay in his hands for a few moments before the small mouth on his hand began to devour the clay, consuming it quickly. " I don't know how much of this training clay I can keep burning up with all my money either." he told himself. Soft sounds of the mouth eating the clay occurred until it was silent, now he was prepared to attempt his jutsu. Though what did he want to make with his clay, he would dare not to attempt a large creature or feat quite yet. "Something small." he muttered to himself looking down into the grass, watching the small ant travel by, but that wasn't quite what he wanted. He wanted some bigger and better then an army of ants by his side to revenge his parents. Pondering a short while, a scarlet mark caught his eye, it was a wolf spider, that had just finished eating its prey, though the small creature was perfect for such an experiment as this, he could make bigger one's when he became stronger. Making sure what he wanted to make Hanzaki envisioned the small creature and began to mold the clay with his chakra, the blue energy whistling around his hand and mouth as he created the creature out the training clay.

It only took a few moments before the dull, gray vermin appeared onto of Hanzaki fingers, small but very deadly at the same time, though Hanzaki knew quite well to be careful the last one had not moved and detonated on spot, nearly ending his life. " Alright this is the tricky part." he told himself as he focused intensely on the spider freshly born from his palm, as its first leg began to inch toward the end of his hand until the entire creature was moving around his body with ease. Hanzaki smirked as the creature as it scurried across the ground, obeying each and every though he delivered the clay creature, watching it scuttle hastily across the ground and up onto the tree Hanzaki had seen the first spider, and rested against the cold bark. " Ketsu." Hanzaki repeated as the spider took only a few seconds to detonate, blowing the tree nearly in half as the explosion swept through the minor area, burning several bushes and the sorts. Hanzaki looked brightly at the black circled around the burnt clay, he had done it, he had mastered the jutsu, he no longer would be teased about such piety objects, and no longer would be bound to motionless dolls, that could blow up into a million pieces. " This is going to be fun." he whispered to himself feeding the mouth more clay until shortly another another spider appeared beside the shinobi. Its almost to easy now." he repeated to himself, having got the jutsu finally down felt like a large burden was lifted, and the powers that it had blessed him with was amazing.

D - Increases the chance that a vital point will be hit to 60%.
C - Increases the chance that a vital point will be hit to 70%.
B - Increases the chance that a vital point will be hit to 80%.
A - Increases the chance that a vital point will be hit to 90%.
S - Increases the chance that a vital point will be hit to 100%.
Special: None
Drawback: None
Description: Effective striking with the weapons of the body to the opponent’s vital points is essential for a victorious outcome in a hand-to-hand struggle. A ninja must be able to employ the principles of effective striking if he is to emerge as the survivor in a fight to the death. Strikes should be targeted at the opponent’s vital points and nerve motor points. Strikes to nerve motor points cause temporary mental stunning and muscle motor dysfunction to the affected areas of the body. Mental stunning results when the brain is momentarily disoriented by overstimulation from too much input—for example, a strike to a major nerve. The stunning completely disables an opponent for three to seven seconds and allows the ninja to finish off the opponent, gain total control of the situation, or make his escape. Sometimes, such a strike causes unconsciousness. A successful strike to a nerve motor center also renders the affected body part immovable by causing muscle spasms and dysfunction due to nerve overload.
Limit: Must be Yellow Belt Krav Maga

Arashi slowly left the Hidden Village he had been living in these last few years of his life. The previous day he had learned a brand new technique called the Sand Shield, which allowed the sand within his gourd to protect himself from any attack his opponents would desire to send in his direction. "Nagato, was merciless..." Arashi stated, thinking about how his Teacher and Leader of the Country had destroyed an invader single handedly. Arashi nearly did nothing even despite the effort he had put into the attack against his opponent, though he had noticed something during the battle with his opponent. "Though he only used his bug's, he is honestly beyond the power of any man on this earth." Arashi exclaimed as he found himself walking quite slow down the road back into the main lands of the River Country, though something was luring him ahead, mainly the burning smell of wood, it wasnt often you would smell something foul like that unless there was a large fire, though there were no signs of smoke, so it had to be locally, maybe a land mine detonated or something along those lines. Arashi debated the possible outcome of the odor, and even the apperance of the arson.

Arashi reached a spot where the smell was quite bruttle, and the location, or better the source could be seen, a single tree, scared by the wood, taking quite and careful steps he reached the tree and investigated the wound afflicted, and noticed it was quite fresh, the ashes of the explosives smoldering down under his sandals. "What the..." Arashi was caught off guard as a spider crawled over his legs, but it was not a simple small spider, it was huge and made of something earthly, turning his head he saw another child like himself training out in the open part of the forest edge. " So your the fool, making that foul smell." Arashi exclaimed, scowling at the young boy infront of him, not quite sure what to sasy. " Though what is your spider made out fo there, I saw it scuttling around." Arashi notted, as he witness the spider crawl back into the man's palm once more. " You arent right kid, though that doesnt mean I cant have fun with you, think you can stand to take me on I need someone to be my dummy." Arashi stated boldly, the only reason he invited this opponent in for a training session was the simple chance to fight against a fair opponent about his rank in talent and skill.

While he let his opponent respond to his questions, he began to read his opponents body, with the method of vital points he had been training recently, knowing the locations of nerves and motor points where becoming one of his specialties at this point. Looking down Hanzaki, he notted the several nerve endings on his neck that could all be hit to deal vital and possibly lethal damage, then of course the arms had their own faults and the inner thighs where the defense was the weakest on the human body. If Arashi could hit him in any of those locations he had a change at brining his opponent down with ease. " This is going to be fun." he told himself quietly, keeping it a dull whipser, continusly awaiting his opponents desires and words about his invite and request to battle. Arashi was prepared and it appeared this male, had something else in his mind that would make it much harder to defeat him, then simple kicks and punches dealt to the head or arms. Arashi scowled, and took back and remained in the Relaxed Stance, a Kenpo technique that simply allows freedom of movement, resting the hands behind the back and his legs spread apart.

Hanzaki turned his head, watching his spider creation race into the bushes around the landscape as a figure emerged from beyond the tree he had just defiled and nearly destroyed, with a simple gesture of I am sorry he watched as the figure came out to him more. Cautiously he began to lift his left hand onto of his head to rest it there, and his other hand quickly into his Training Clay Pouch to extract another handful of the clay that he would use to defend himself if he had to, though the other boy appeared to be his age with a closer examination, and shortly the other boy was talking to him, requesting he would not destroy another tree, like he had, as well as an invitation, instead of it being one to leave his current spot, it was a request to fight each other, a will of two shinobi would be interesting to test his new ninjutsu with. A slight twitch of his lips created a soft smirk which then was followed by a nod, accepting the other child's battle. Taking a few steps he would give a moment for the boy to prepare himself, he wasn't planning on killing the other shinobi. Though bleeding and possibly a visit to the ICU would be a viable option for both of them. Hanzaki on the other hand wasn't going to get his ass beat so easily and began molding the clay in his hand to prepare himself for another weapon of destruction, to lure his opponent away from his hand he opened his mouth to speak. " I accept your offer, though I would prefer to know the name of my opponent." Hanzaki admitted as the mouth bound to his hand continued to devour his chakra and clay.

Within moments the clay had phased away as the other boy began to talk to him. With a few thoughts on his mind he was curious what other then spiders he could create that would be quite fun to toy around with, taking a moment away from his current situation, he looked up into the bright blue sky, where a falcon circled above, taking a few moments to look up he finally found himself with a new breed of weaponry, as he began to shape the chakra into the shape of a bird. Appearing onto his hand in the fashion a small bird would have, being made of pale and dull clay the bird gently rested on several of Hanzaki fingers, being about 6 inches in size, with enough clay to blow a whole through the the Gate back at the village. " Though to be polite my name is Hanzaki, I was from the Stone Village, but I moved here recently." Hanzaki commented, as the clay bird flapped its wings gently, slowly taking flight, being commanded by Hanzaki by his mind the bird slowly flew around his head and landed on his shoulder, Hanzaki had learned a powerful new ninjustu that would allow him to bring to life the amazing pieces of artwork he often attempted to create perfectly, though at this point, perfection wasn't needed, it was simple needs and wants for survival at this point, epically in battle, when one doesn't have the time to spend sculpting the clay into the master-piece but after much practice he would be able to create powerful creations and wield them with an even stronger power.

Hanzaki turned his head back to his opponent and smiled, " I hope you don't mind, I have a few new techniques to practice on you." Hanzaki stated, it wasn't a question to see the desires of the shinobi but a simple fact that this was going to be more of a learning experience to himself, able to test jutsu while training along side with his opponent her. " Unless you have a problem with that, though you yourself appear desperate for some training, or are you just checking me out." he said flatly, his tone of voice nearly monotone at that point. Hanzaki was ready to advance his own knowledge into the art of his bloodline to be able to use devastating jutsu and attacks that could only be dealt by his hands. Hanzaki tilted his head up to Arashi, and kept an eye brow lifted, " Who are you exactly anyways, you don't quite look like the others around here." Hanzaki commented, though he didn't have right to say a whole lot being new to the country to himself, being the new face on the block. Hanzaki smirked shortly after, " Lets begin."

Unless you have a problem with that, though you yourself appear desperate for some training, or are you just checking me out.

Ha Ha Ha!

Arashi facial features glinted with a smile, this boy was going to make this training all the more fun at this rate, with his intresting bloodline traits. Without saying a word while the other boy spoke, Arashi had a fairly high amount of respect for any guest, unless his Leader Nagato told him otherwise. Arashi though had a few thoughts on his own mind once the other boy told him to train along with him to gain new techniques. This could prove to be quite benoficial to the young Arashi-kun, being able to manipulate Sand and the likes, he could learn a technique like the Sand Sheild with Nagato, though what would he learn this time, he had so many technique to choose from to attempt against his opponent, though one came to mind that was quite appealing, espcially in a situation like this one. Arashi mind searched the depths of his memory, then it all came to him. Arashi would use this opprutunity to attempt the jutsu known as the Sand Armour, it is quite similar to the Sand Sheild technique, in the fact that it would provide Arashi with a defense that could not be beaten so easily, unlike his opponent, he would be caught off guard by such a technique as a Sand Sheild or even the Sand Armour Arashi wished to learn.

Arashi notted, that it would require quite a bit of sand to cover his entire body with sand, and then it would require a massive amount of chakra to substain numerous hits and attacks from his opponent, though it would leave himself untouched, which was a benifit that Arashi would sacrafice his chakra for. With the Sand Conversion technique Arashi had learned previously, he would be able to turn the entire forest floor, into a pile of Sand he could use and abuse for all his ninjutsu. This was most likely his most benifical technique, though if it was extremely dire Arashi would use the Sand in his own guord to keep himself safe and protected from any intruders and opponents. " Are you sure, you might not come out of this in the best of shape." Arashi laughed solemly as the top of the gourd came undone from the building up sand in the gourd, until it was unleased from its capsule. Arashi sand quickly circling himself in a dazziling display of power and control, until it rested around his own feet, ready to spring forth once more to aid its master. Arashi prepared himself for the first attack against his opponent, quickly calling for his sand once more, lifting it all into the air above his own head, until it slowly rained back down onto his figure, slowly coating him in a layer of Sand, hardening the moment it landed ontop of his skin.

The Armour of Sand taking the same color as his own body, almost appearing as if he hadnt used the technique at all, though Arashi did not attempt this justu in any form of secretcy, and waited until the jutsu finished itself. Arashi slowly took a step foward, he could feel the strain of the Sand and chakra flowing in the Sand keeping himself safe, it was nearly unbearable for a newbie, but Arashi could keep it all under wraps, the technique was quite a bit more hefty on himself then he had presumed it would have been on himself, though this would be the perfect time to test out the damage capabilities of the ninjutsu, to test how much techniques the jutsu could withstand, and exactly how much strain it would afflict Arashi with. Moving a few more steps Arashi remained solid in place, he would not come to his opponent Hanzaki he would have him come to himself. " The name is Arashi Raiyate. You better be prepared kid, this isn't your ordinary training session." Arashi stated boldly, he wasnt going to loose to no pyro and arson like the orange haired kid that stood infront of him. " I'll even honor you with the first attack Hanzaki." Arashi told him, sounding a bit over confident, though he Arashi knew his place, this Sand Armour gave him a surreal amount of confidence on the amount of damage he could handle and deal against his opponent.

< --- 0/30 --- >

Hanzaki watched the dispaly of Sand before him as the kid known as Arashi performed his first technique infront of his own eyes, watching the Sand being beckoned by his own will. This made it all the more intresting when this child was able to control the advance powers of Sand, the traits within the mind required to go correct to simply control it were completly against the users odds, to be born with both the Fuuton Release, and Doton Release that Hanzaki had himself, and to be able to interchange each other to control each of them at the same time. The boy infront of him was a genieus compared to many, having the chakra control and sanity to attempt such jutsus. Though Hanzaki couldnt really say anything else about it, himself being quite similar with the manner his jutsu required his mastery of Doton (Earth) and Katon Release (Fire) to entangle each other to create his lovely little clay dolls that explode into hunderds of pieces before his own eyes. Though watching the amour unfold itself infront of him, Hanzaki knew that he would have to bring himelf up to a knew challenge, he would train himself to create larger creatures to do his bidding, thus being able to destroy quite a bit more, and in this case, he could be able to blow this kids armour off with a breeze. " Don't get cocky kid, jsut because of have some fancy sheild of Sand, that won't keep you protected from my attacks." Hanzaki told Arashi bluntly, which was quite true, he would need more then a layer of Sand to protect himself from a layer of Sand.

Hanzaki used his hand to dig through his bag of clay, to gather a large clump in his hand, removing the biggest clump of clay he had removed so far this morning, the dull gray clump sitting motionless in his hand, it was odd to think that the simple pile of clay that was in his hand now could be turned into anything his mind wanted it to be, and the more he advanced himself into the technique he would be able to create bigger and better things, Hanzaki could only dream of creating a ten foot large spider that could remove an entire town of the map of Hidden Villages, that power that could be in his hands. Is this the real reason that the Stone ANBU feared what his blood was capable of doing, where his parents going to overtake the village. No, they wouldnt, they had an amazing amount of dedication and effort put into the Vilalge, they would never think of such a thought, though was the Stone Country so insecure...Hanzaki debated such thoughts but now it wasnt time to worry about coming back to haunt his Home Country, it was to fight Arashi who was standing infront of him, and show the child his place, where he belonged and would remain. " Let the fun begin Arashi, I have a friend I want you to meet." he stated boldly, as the hand ontop his palm began to devour the clay, taking in the entire pile, taking large consuming bites out of the clay until nothing was left. Hanzaki could feel the chakra pulsing through his veins as the chakra molded the clay inside his hand, preparing it for Hanzaki own crafting hand.

Slowly emerging from his hand as he worked his single talent and ability came forth a bird, similar to the one he had summoned before but quite a bit larger, being nearly a foot in size compared to the one that was half that size, still floating in the air. " Go Great our guest luvs'" Hanzaki stated as the birds flew into the air, going high into the sky before swooping back down. Hanzaki wasnt planning to waste any more time with small talk with his training partner, watching his bird quickly target Arashi as he willed it to, and prepared the second phrase he would need to use such a jutsu like this and make it efficent, before it reached Arashi, Hanzaki knew he had to blow it up, otherwise the Sand would have consumed the blast entirely and rendered it useless, with a short distance it would provide himself a better chance of hitting him with the inital blast and the recoil of the attack. " Katsu! he shouted gleefully, watching the bird compeltly go critical and explode wildly, sending a large blast of flames that would utterly destroy anything flamable in its path, of course this would be something compared to a grenade, but this was still amazing to Hanzaki's own eyes, the simple destructive power it had concealed within a single ball of clay, though he was sure his opponents lovely sheild of Sand would keep him safe from this first attack.

Arashi watched in silence as the other boy quickly called upon his powers to create another clay figruine, it was quiet odd to see someone create such a fine and detailed creature within a few moments, though to give and have it to breathe life is something completly else, something Arashi wasnt quite sure he could deal with. "That is some freaky jutsu." Arashi admitted bluntly as the bird remained by the summoners side. Arashi couldnt exactly call out many more comments, as himself controlled sand as if it had been given the traits of life. Shortly the other boy sent his pet over to Arashi, was he being a fool, he knew what his bugs were capable of, though the speed and agility the bird suddenly gained was fair more then he had expected, coming directly for him at this point. " You should have a sign telling people to be aware of the birds." Arashi called out as he began to prepare his own defense, knowing well that he had a set of Sand Armour, it would be difficult to block an explosion. Begining to move he noted it far harder to jump and run, turning his head the bird had almost reached him. "Shit." he called out as the clay bird exploded right behind him, sending a wave of flames and wind right to his direction, he wasn't going to escape it in time to come out uninjured, focusing more chakra to his Sand Armour he dealt with the explosion.

Flames consumed around his body, and he could feel the slight heat of the technique, but his armour withstood the attack, coming out of the technique. Standing up in the pile of sand that was oozing of his body, as the explosion had blew apart part of his shield, nearly demolishing the entire backside of his Sand Armour. " That was alittle bit to close." he told himself, as he focused chakra within the sand below his feet and began to rebuild his own Sand Armour, the chakra quickly flowing through the Sand beneath his feet and collecting once more on his backside. The Shield quickly restoring itself to its former glory, though it was quite amazing to Arashi himself, for it had left him nearly unharmed and undamaged, besides his chakra being consumed it was if nothing happened. Arashi smirked brillantly, as if he himself had beaten his opponent in such a recored of time. Quickly completing several hand-signs the ground beneath his feet began to become uneasy, slowly loosing its shape as it began to collapse under itself, turning into tiny particles of dust, and forming a large source of Sand for the genin to draw his techniques from, with this jutsu he would provide himself with a nearly infinite amount of Sand to draw his attacks after attack. " You almost had me there.." Arashi said, with a hint of his stamina being tested, sounding out of breath, but he was far from being beaten. Arashi had quite a few tricks up his sleeve to prevent him from loosing this training battle with Hanzaki. " Though letting you give the first punch might have been a mistake on my part. I did underestimate you quite a bit kiddo. I wont make that mistake again." Arashi said with a slight smile on his facial features. Now it was time to strike back against his devilish opponent.

Arashi knelt down for a moment as he collected the remainder of his first reserve of chakra, calling forth his next technique, "Doujou Kirikae no Jutsu (Soil Conversion Technique)" With these very words the soil around the child began to become undone quickly unfolding itself, turning from plane old soil into Sand that could be used by Arashi, the scenery around him quickly coming undone, no longer being bound by normal laws with this technique, in this strange form of transmutation. Quickly Arashi was surrounded by a large mass of Sand, now with his own personal army of jutsu before him, as long as he had chakra to use for them. Bounding himself before Hankzaki, he prepared himself to fight Hanzaki, he wasnt going to let the man get away so easily with the technique that had destroyed his Sand Shield, he would use his sand and crush those pretty hands of his and make sure he cant create another rat with wings, or a spider, or anything for that matter, he could only imagine the numerous amounts of creations that Hanzaki could invent and use for his own liking. " Prepare yourself Hanzaki, you will see the mistake you made when taking me own." Arashi stated taking steps foward, closing the distance between the two boys. Arashi slowly moved through the sand that was circling around his feet, slowly running his own hand through his hair, running the ivory hand through his onyx hair, this wasnt going to end any time soon. This would be a battle for the ages, this would be epic to himself and his opponent, even though it was a simple fight between two Genin equivalent characters, it was still a fight that Arashi insisted on winning.
