BAKUTON (Explosion)

[☆ F ☆]

Bakuton (Explosion) is an advanced nature transformation found in certain kekkei genkai, and is produced by the combination of the Doton (Earth) and Raiton (Lightning) chakra natures. Like the name suggests, these two chakra natures combine rather violently in order to create massive, devastating set of blasts of raw energy from the user's palms to decimate the wielder's foes. Aside from a few that can use the basic, essential Explosion techniques, this advanced nature transformation is used exclusively as the premiere element of the revered Kibaku-Nedo clan hailing from Tsuchi no Kuni. Whether it be through that clan's clay creations, or the raw usage at the hands of an elite practitioner, Bakuton is truly an ability to be feared.

Acquiring Bakuton requires the users to possess Raiton (Lightning) and Doton (Earth) nature transformations, as well as Kekkei Genkai trait.

◀ Abilities

Bōgyojutsu (Explosive Defense Technique)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive, Supplementary
Cost: Standard
Description: Although Bakuton is known for their explosive blasts and destructive force, this technique was designed for defensive purposes. When used, the user creates an explosion in their palm, aimed at disrupting or destroying incoming attacks. If properly timed and angled, it can even be used to send certain physical attacks flying back violently at the enemy.



Shōgeki (Shogeki)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Offensive, Supplementary
Cost: Sustained
Description: Yet another Bakuton technique that is not designed to be directly offensive, it is still nonetheless useful and dangerous when used correctly. After gathering their Bakuton chakra in their hands, the user punches the ground, resulting in a violent explosion that causes the earth to upturn, greatly unbalancing their opponents and devastating the battlefield. Because of the power of the explosion, random blasts will erupt from the underneath ground like fiery geysers within range of the attack, which carry devastating force.



Jiraiken (Landmine Fist)
Rank: S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive
Cost: Standard
Description: After establishing direct contact with their opponent or target through a simple punch, the user utilizes Bakuton chakra to subsequently generate an enormous explosion originating from within the target. This explosion is powerful enough to completely obliterate an opponent far larger than the user. Due to the directionality of the blast, the user minimizes any potential repercussions, such as being struck by resultant debris and even recoil appears to be completely negated.
