Is Orochimaru really bringing Kou towards Ryuchi Cave? Sounds incredibly dangerous

Maybe.....

You need a powerful body to withstand Ryuchi cave, or the White Snake King will kill and eat you. I think that should be delayed until Kou is...less malnourished?

This is days after kou arrived, he did eat in that time period you know lol

Yea, but from sickly homeless kid to a body stronger than Orochimaru's is gonna take time, '-'

Malnourishment can take weeks for its effects to be corrected and past a certain level it can't be corrected. I'd say the only feasible bypass is innately large chakra reserves or an abundance of Yang chakra.

You will see soon that this isn’t Ryuchi cave proper, more so trailing on the outskirts.

Apologize if that post looks rushed, I wanted to add Danzo and other stuff but I have too many RPs to reply to so I had to get the essentials for now.

Also Tomiko's POV of Mori in a nutshell...

True that, I really don't know what Zaku expected to happen XD

Azure Dragon Faction


Though what they practice would be described as a free-flowing fighting style with flexibility and mobility as pivotal or key aspects, in truth, that is only the surface level of the Azure Dragon Faction's techniques, one they're willing to teach to all members with the willingness to learn- even members whose origins lie outside the Hyuga clan. At this basic level, the faction provides its member with minor advice and basic lessons on the importance of mobility and flexibility in both weaving together ninjutsu and taijutsu, however, teaching will not be in-depth, and the faction will generally not pass on any techniques. These members of the faction are called ‘outer members/disciples/students’


The next level of members of this faction are dubbed ‘inner’ members, and their fighting styles revolve around nin-taijutsu, which combines the visual acuity of the Byakugan, with the precise, accurate and consecutive strikes of the gentle fist and the; sharpness and free-flowing nature of wind chakra, the density and power of earth natured chakra, the flexibility and resilience of water natured chakra, the shocking speed and numbing sensation of lightning natured chakra, or the explosive power of fire natured chakra. Because this fighting style requires usage of the Byakugan in combination with the gentle fist, it is generally not taught to outsides. Exceptions however, can be made, and a modified version of the faction techniques can be passed onto those the upper echelon of the faction find worthy. Generally, those deemed worth are allies of the Hyuga clan, and are either loyal or share a mutually beneficial relationship with the clan.


Beyond the aforementioned ‘inner’ level, are the ‘core’ members of the faction who have mastered at least one or multiple of the elemental nintaijutsu styles. From hence forth the members are privy to some of the faction’s hiden-level techniques, which combine nintaijutsu with the gentle fist to devastating effect. Members of the core level of this faction are generally Jonin level or higher in strength and skill due to the sheer level of chakra control required to perform any of the faction’s techniques with controlled output. After this level the faction stops teaching its members ‘strict and structured’ techniques, and instead promotes experimentation and research into the creation of a personal fighting style suited best to the users’ chakra natures and capabilities.


When one has succeeded in creating a personalized fighting style, or modifying an existing style to better fit their own needs, they are promoted from the level of ‘disciple’ and instead act as elders or sensei within the faction. Even between the Sensei, there is a distinct difference between modifying an existing combat style, and contributing to the clan by creating an entirely new style. Those who create entirely new styles are dubbed as the ‘Legacy Echelon’, and are able to pass down their own unique style, or ‘Legacy’, among the clan. Legacy Echelon sensei’s are rare but not extremely so, but generally, those with the exact compatibilities to master their styles are equally, if not even rarer than the teachers.


For example, the current Clan Leader Hinagiku, is a Legacy Sensei whose fighting style combines Wind, Earth and Water natured chakras. Apart for the chakra requirements, a user of her style must have a lithe and flexible body capable of simulating the whipping, rippling and wave-like motions that are incorporated into her strikes. Given that one has matched the requirements for both chakra nature and body type, they must also have the required level of chakra control need for the deft switches between chakra natures that supplement her style, and an intimate familiarity with ejecting chakra from locations other than one’s hands and feet. When all these factors are added up, the number of people capable of inheriting her style are small, and even that small group would be filtered through the critical lens of the person in question.


Between Legacies, there are distinctions, with a completed Legacy being held in the highest regard. A completed legacy is classified as a Hiden, and is both creative and effectively usable in battle. Below a completed legacy is a nascent legacy, which while creative may not be feasible in battle due to absurd requirements, or inefficient chakra consumption of the technique, or any number of factors which make it an unsustainable or inefficient method of combat. These nascent legacies may even be partially completed or even usable up to a certain point, but the completed technique is either not defined enough to achieve the rank of hiden, or has too many drawbacks and may be classified as forbidden. Records of these legacies are kept more for the value of information and the creative thought process of the creator rather than any use the actually technique may have. They are essentially ‘creative failures’, which stimulate the thought process and nothing more.


Sensei level figures compose the highest level of power within the faction in terms of authority and combat power, and while the Legacy teachers don’t usually take on personal students, they assist the regular teachers in providing advice and insight to the younger generation of the clan, using their own styles as reference points to widen the horizons of the students.

=======================================

Thoughts?

The whole legacy thing works similarly to the field of science or any of those fields where you build on the actions of predecessors and eventually try to expand beyond that. Legacy sensei's are about as rare as the famous scientist who manage to expand an entire branch of science with a revolutionary breakthrough. Anything short of a revolutionary breakthrough is simply style modification and they'll be assigned as a regular sensei.

Keep in mind that the scale used here is that of the world vs the Hyuga clan so despite scientist of such genius appearing somewhat common, that is out of a population of 7 billion, while the Hyuga clan would at most be several hundred members.

Hence, the ratio of actually legacies created would in essence be minuscule.

The Hyuga Clan terrify me more and more as we go into this AU. I might have to set my Uchiha Bias aside and focus on how to deal with them XD.

This is merely applying structure to an existing concept. A well defined structure makes everything terrifying.

And on the subject to original fighting style, I kind of already have one for Shura
Click to expand...
Depends on the novelty and completeness of the fighting-style. Hinagiku's covers almost all aspects and can be used to increase her speed, attack power, flexibility, defense, etc.

The criteria I have in mind are...rather vague though, so I can't make any definite judgments on how Shura's fighting style would be ranked. However, it needs to be able to stand on its own as a fully contained style that can react to many situations since it will be considered a Hiden rank, which is something a whole clan can be based on.
