Element: N/A
Range: -
Description: Irooni is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. Ryuho calls out a color, and any damage on a part of a body that's not of that color will be minimized, while any damage on a part of a body that's not of that color will be maximized. What would normally be a huge, major wound would be a small, minor wound, whereas what would be a small, minor wound would be a huge, major wound. Basically, this technique manipulates damage according to color. The more of the color is on a body, the more likely it is for a significant wound to be dealt. 1 use per battle and this effect lasts for a total of 4 posts.

Name: Pyro Bombs
Rank: B
Skill: Kenjutsu
Element: Katon
Range: Explosions are of a 10-meter radius
Description: Konetsu-Bakudan is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuhou. Whenever Ryuhou steps on a surface, he can create a "trap bomb" under his feet, right in the surface. The trap bomb is entirely made of chakra and so it's invisible and hidden well. Once an opponent either touches the surface the bomb is in or is right above it (even if they're way up in the air), that bomb will explode, dealing serious damage to anything within the blast radius.

Name: Maze
Rank: S
Skill: Kenjutsu
Element: N/A
Range: In dimensions, the maze is 100 meters by 100 meters
Description: Meiro is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. Once activated, a giant maze is erected around the perimeter. The maze is made of a nigh-unbreakable stone/concrete and has many passageways; and is formed differently each time. Located somewhere in that maze is an open field where the "prize" box, where everyone involved in the maze must get to. There'll be clues and hints along the way directing towards that prize box. Also, there's an unbreakable barrier just 10 meters above the maze and 10 meters below the maze. This makes it so people can't just fly out or dig underground.
The truth behind this maze is that whoever gets to the prize box first loses. Once someone gets within 5 meters of the box, the box will automatically open and expel an extremely bright, blinding light. This will stun anyone who looks at it. Then, it'll expel another prize. The box will significantly sharpen the edge of any blade that's within 10 meters of it aside from the one who first opened it. Thus, the enemy will be blinded and left completely open while Ryuhou closes in for the kill with a sharpened sword, where he'll be able to launch one deadly blow on the target. The maze will dispel completely afterwards.

Name: Bloodstone
Rank: S
Skill: Kenjutsu
Element: Katon
Range: -
Description: Chiishi is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuhou. This technique involves setting himself on fire with very powerful flames. The flames are fueled by Ryuhou's blood, which is being burned as a catalyst for this technique. By burning his own blood, these powerful flames can be generated and maintained. Thus, prolonged use of it will most definitely kill Ryuhou and vaporize all of the blood in his body. The flames' temperature is somewhere in the few thousands of degrees (celsius) and the radiated temperature to the air is somewhere within a few hundred degrees. Just by being within the near vicinity of Ryuhou is dangerous and direct contact with him will mean instant burning and incineration of whatever is touching him. Although Ryuhou is somewhat protected from these flames, he'll sustain burning damage at a moderate rate. Once he burns the flames out after a short period of use with it, he should be covered with burns.

Name: Raging Violent Wind
Rank: A
Skill: Kenjutsu
Element: Wind
Range: 50 meters
Description: Kyofu Reppu is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. Ryuho can generate from his blades a big stream of wind chakra that can take on any physical form. Controlling this stream by moving his sword around, Ryuho can attack his opponents from a distance. The wind is not only powerful in a blunt way, capable of destroying large houses if not buildings in a few strokes like a typhoon, but also can be sharpened so that it can cut things apart. He likes to mold the stream into something resembling that of tentacles, allowing him to grip onto things and crush them. He can also use this as a defense; as a barrier of wind.

Name: Power of the Bird
Rank: C
Skill: Kenjutsu
Element: Wind
Range: Long
Description: Chikara no Tori is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique. This technique allows anyone within the vicinity of Ryuhou as well as Ryuhou himself to gain the power of flight, air-walking, and levitation. This is done by manipulating wind chakra, in which people themselves become something like that of the wind. This only lasts for 10 posts, but can be advantageous for Ryuho. He can augment his jumping power and since he is better suited for fighting in mid-air, his opponent's balance is compromised.

Name: Swollen
Rank: A
Skill: Kenjutsu
Element: N/A
Range: -
Description: Hareru is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique. Ryuho decides which sword will be the "sweller", and can change it during the course of this technique. Once the sweller sword touches the opponent, it won't cut into them. Instead, it'll cause the skin and flesh that's touched or underneath to swell up, as if from inflammation. Then, Ryuho's other sword, the sword that can cut, will be able to cut into the swollen flesh and into the opponent's body. This technique is excellent in bypassing people with techniques that enhance body durability.

Name: Shoot to Death

Element: N/A
Range: Short, only 10 inches
Description: Fukiri is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique. Ryuho slashes his blades towards his opponent at high velocity, creating an "air slash' with a 10-inch reach. The key is that Ryuho slashes the air with enough force that he fires a stream of condensed air pressure at the enemy, allowing him to cut them without touching them. Of course, the air slash shouldn't be so strong that it delivers a serious wound; at best a mild cut is dealt.

Element: N/A

Description: Self-explanatory.

Name: Seven Strikes of the Monk
Rank: D-C
Element: N/A
Type: Kenjutsu
Description: Shichidaigeki no Shukke is a basic Kenjutsu technique utilizing the use of a sword. As a master swordsman, Ryuho can use precision and attack speed to limit how much and how fast an enemy can attack. Althuogh labeled as seven strikes, it is actually much more than that. Ryuho will strike at various areas from different directions at high speeds, making it seem as if ten blurry similiar attacks looks like one visible one. The angle and speed causes the opponent to misjudge the amount of attacks. Ryuho will strike ten times at the same area but his speed is so great that it only looks like one, making the opponent feel as if his attacks are getting heavy and breaking down own's offense and defense one at a time. A second later, Ryuho will strike ten times at another position and repeats this for an overall of seven times, hence Ryuho will hit seventy times but the enemy will see it as seven. This would mean that the enemy will have seven. heavy, muscle-exhausted areas from which Ryuho can strike at any of these areas and that strike will break right through the opponent and slice through their body or they will attack the opponent while they are open. At C-rank level, Ryuho will strike seventy times in just a few seconds at near-untracable speeds but this time he will hit all over the place, making it seem to the opponent as if there were seven strikes and then a faint blurry cloud of seventy strikes. This would give the technique away a bit but it gives the opponent little time to counter or dodge, forcing them to fight by reflex. Eventually, the eenmy will be overwhemed and then suffer some hits. If not, then they will suffer several muscle-exhausted areas all over their body which will cause the body and mind to tire out pretty quickly, giving Ryuho a split second to attack.

Name: Opening Approach
Rank: B
Element: N/A
Type: Kenjutsu
Description: Rokotsu Komichi is a Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. With the use of a sword, Ryuho will combine a swordsman's attack speed and precision together for lethal strikes. Ryuhowill charge his elbow and biceps area with enough chakra to temporarily feed it so it can work properly. He will then strike the opponent and force them to think on their feet by stabbing them multiple times at intense speeds at the lower body area, particulary the hip to knee. The speed Ryuho is using is so intense that if the opponent does not block his attack and instead uses Ryuho's open head area to kill him, Ryuho will be able to stab the lap, knee, and legs several times before the opponent even connects his blade with Ryuho, thus cutting off their legs and immobolizing them. Once that happens, Ryuho can just launch a deadly cut that will kill the opponent. The opponent is forced to defend their leg area and while that happens, Ryuho will constantly hit the area which is blocked by the blade. Eventually, the opponent's focus will be diverted to that of the leg area and they will be busy parrying Ryuho's lower strikes and forgot about the middle area. Ryuho will then suddenly cut right through the edge of the opponent's sword or at least quickly stab right above the sword to stop it from moving, and then forcefully slash his sword up right through the opponent, dealing massive if not deathly damage to them. While they're surprised, Ryuho will rapidly launch several lethal attacks at the opponent's body, hacking them into pieces and killing the opponent.

Name: Ending Approach
Rank: A
Element: N/A
Type: Kenjutsu
Description: Shimekiri Komichi is a Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. With the use of a sword, Ryuho is able to stop and counter any sword attack with another sword. he will use accuracy and speed to keep up with an opponent's attack speed and where their sword will strike, while applying equal force which will drain all power from the blow. This is effective against face-paced multiple sword attacks. After Ryuho has reached the point where he has stopped an enemy attack who cannot use the same sword to attack again (hence by striking at the hilt or bottom of the blade), he will then stab the enemy at the heart area multiple times.

Name: The Heart
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Element: N/A
Range: -
Description: Omoi is a Ninjutsu technique unique to the Nakata clan. True to their word that they can forge into any blade their heart, this is basically a duplication/recovery technique of any weapon the Nakata carried. For example, Ryuho can use this technique on two ordinary katanas, and those ordinary katanas will literally turn into Takashi, Ryuho's greatest weapon.

Name: Canopy Method Formation

Element: N/A
Range: 50 meters
Description: Tengai Hojin is a barrier Ninjutsu technique. This technique creates a spherical detection barrier with the user at the centre. At the user's command, the detection barrier can expand, grasping everything in the room. The user is able to detect anything that moves inside the barrier space with their own "sense", including chakra and movements. The user may also move, the barrier will follow them as they move.

Name: Ten Days of Hell
Rank: S
Skill: Ninjutsu/Fuuinjutsu
Element: N/A
Range: Long
Description: Juhi no Jigoku is a barrier Ninjutsu-Fuuinjutsu technique. After forming the handseals, Ryuho erects a restrictive barrier around the target (big or small) that works to bind the target in a cage. Then, a Fuuinjutsu spell is cast to place a seal between the target's mind and chakra, effectively sealing away their chakra control. This means that they're either unable to use chakra techniques anymore or that their chakra fluctuates so wildly that any technique they use will take up much, much more chakra. Once the seal is broken, there'll be a sudden aggravation of the target's chakra for not being able to control their chakra for a period of time, resulting in intense pain.

Name: Body Flicker Technique
Rank: D-S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Element: N/A
Range: -
Description: Ryuho has mastered the Shunshin no Jutsu to the point that he can flicker vast distances in short periods of time.

Birth-Genin:
Born to the Nakata clan, Ryuho was different from the other children. For one, he did not pick up a sword at two years old like all other Nakatas have done. No, he didn't even pick up a wooden stick until he was 4. By then, all the children knew at least what it felt like to swing a weapon. His uncle taught Ryuho, who was reluctant to do so, fencing and Kenjutsu. Also different from the others was that he did not display the same anti-girly attitude other boys had. Rather, he was nice and kind to them; often playing with them rather than the boys.
He didn't get out of the Academy until he was 9. By then, most of his family members couldn't even remember his name, because he had no acknowledgement.
Often did he flirt and try to ask girls out on a date; sometimes he succeeded, sometimes he was just kicked in the nuts. He was tutored by a Jounin who employed the Summoning technique as part of his fighting style. It was then did Ryuho made a pact with falcons. As he was lifted into the skies by them, he felt the happiest joy of his childhood. Furthermore, he felt another rush. He was now serious about becoming a shinobi. He trained with a sword and learned the Shinshikata. From then, he started to display enormous potential and talent, far surpassing any known Nakata his age. Alas, he was recognized for the latent power he held.
At the Chunin exams, Ryuho breezed through the examinations and showed an impressive work of swordsmanship that has never been seen in a Chunin. At 11, he was promoted to Chunin.
Chunin:
For Ryuho, he felt both despair and pride. Proud that he was moving up in the Ninja World. That he was not hopeless. Sad that now with his missions escalating in danger, the body count and the need to kill is also higher. Ryuho had never killed someone or had he felt the urge to kill.
He was trained in several Kenjutsu styles and had the precision, strength, reflexes, instincts, and speed of a swordsman, but he felt like he lacked something. On one A-rank mission, he found out what that was. On that day, Ryuho had killed someone. And not just someone. A kunoichi. It was all reflexive and self-defense, Ryuho reacted immediately as par his ninja instincts at the prospect of being killed in battle. He lost his cool, his mind went insane, and he and moved his sword accidently towards a critical point, and found a dead girl lying there. He lacked heart. He lacked endurance and perseverance. Because he lacked the mental capacity to handle a risky assignment of this scale, he was not able to spare anyone from death by fighting him. On the way home, he was broken; even though he was praised for his "good work".

He vowed to never pick up his sword again. But his clansmen wouldn't let him. They forced him to train and spar so he would be a warrior. But Ryuho resisted. But then, an invasion on Konohagakure occured. Hundreds of people were killed and many of the girls that he knew and befriended died right in front of him. The sight was traumatic to Ryuho and he picked up his sword, in a fit of rage, and he charged towards the enemy. He saw several Chunin and cut them down, but without killing them. Right then, during the attack, he had the heart to spare them. As Konoha forces were able to drive them back, Ryuho reflected upon his actions and decided to become Hokage. He would become so great that there'd be no more wars against his village and his people. He'd protect them all.

He trained on his own and developed the Shinshikata. He was able to develop his two natural elements and combined them into a flashy but deadly two-sword fighting style. His progress with the Shinshikata and just Kenjutsu in general was immense. He had the skill and talent of a genius swordsman, one seen only once a few decades in Konohagakure. He was able to develop 5 Shinshikata techniques, which was unprecendented for someone his age. he returned to missions and took a passive approach to battle.

Jounin:
For his mission record and reknown Kenjutsu prowess, Ryuho was promoted to Jounin at the age of 16. Wartime situation struck. And this time Konohagakure was on the offensive. Ryuho criticized and lashed out at the government for igniting the flames of war again. The Hokage explained that in order to secure their imperalist desires and to retaliate against aggressions made by the enemy, war was waged on Kusagakure. Ryuho would not relent, and he continued to argue against the government (first time in poltiics?). Eventually, he was jailed and offed from duty. Nine weeks had passed and the war was going well for Konoha. The ANBU issued an order to release Ryuho and have him enter in the fray as well. Knowing that it's fruitless to refuse, Ryuho flew into battle and landed on a major Kusagakure base. There, he incapacitated 50 people without killing them. This victory earned him praise as a war hero and Ryuho himself, disliking war, was proud that he did not kill anyone and was able to completely fulfill his mission. He realized that although there may not be a way out of war, there is a right and best way of fighting it.
Two years later, Ryuho mastered the Shinshikata as well as various Kenjutsu styles. He was then chosen by the clan leader himself, Kanegawa Nakata, whose son was too young, to succeed the Takashi.

Elite Swordsman; The Training Has Begun
First of the training process was endurance. Ryuho was sent to various terrains in order to train; tundra, moss, oceans, deserts, and stonelands. He went through places that were too cold and too hot to build up his physical ability to endure. The point was for the master of Takashi to be able to fight in any environment, and to use it to their advantage. He needed to know how to respond and know how to survive and where all the traps are. After six months, Ryuho came back, having lost a lot of weight but clearly he had persevered.

Second was the three-key training; strength, speed, and durability. Ryuho required the rapid swiftness in attack, foot, and reaction speed. He needed to be able to perfectly control how hard and how powerful his slashes are. He also needed to amp his body up to no-sold and withstand an attack that would normally critically damage the average human. This training was the longest, and Ryuho worked his ass off in order to get his body to superhuman levels in all regards. After 5 years of irregretable training, Ryuho came back a new man. He had the greatest physical ability any swordsman could have hoped for.

Third was the mental training. Fighting in the dark with enemies, keeping one's cool while under severe pressure, and maintaining a steady pulse whilst in the midst of a violent struggle were part of his training to gain the mind of the perfect swordsman. After one year, Ryuho achieved enlightenment for a swordsman. Alas, most of the ideals that Ryuho developed currently sprung from this training to find himself and to train his mind.

Finally, the duel. To own Takashi, Ryuho must best Kanegawa. But not in a match of swordsmanship. No, Kanegawa was well aware that Ryuho was vastly superior to him in that aspect. But in a psychological battle. A match of aura and intimidation. Kanegawa was by far the scariest guy in the entire clan, if not the entire village. One who owns Takashi must be able to end a match without using it. A huge tiger was released before them. The tiger looked at Ryuho, particularly in the eyes, snorted, and then turned towards Kanegawa. After a few seconds, the tiger lunged at Kanegawa, who decapitated it in an instant. The clansmen cheered on, seeing that Kanegawa had won. The tiger took such pity on Ryuho, that it did not even see him as a threat. Whilst the tiger, from the moment he saw Kanegawa, was overcome with such fear and aggression that it lunged out at him to survive. But Kanegawa disagreed. He said that from the moment the tiger looked at Ryuho, it was overcome by such intimidation that it immediately knew that it stood no chance in fighting with him, and turned away from him with hopelessness. But when it studied Kanegawa, it saw a chance of winning and attacked. Kanegawa gave Ryuho Takashi and declared him the rightful owner of it.

Elite Swordsman; The Training Has Ended. The Time is Ripe.
Now 26, Ryuho began to perfect his Shinshikata with Takashi. By the time he was 28, he was able to wild a complete set of 12 Shinshikata techniques. Pretty much the most skilled Kenjutsu user in Konohagakure, he turned his attention to things like Fuuinjutsu and barrier Ninjutsu. All of this was to secure his dream to become Hokage. Once per month, he kindly requested the Hokage to step down so he'd be able to become it. Eventually, the Hokage got tired of this nonsense and had Ryuho move up the ranks to become a senior within the ninja council. That was the best he could get.
Ryuho also began to have serious intimacy with a woman named Isane. One jealous rival who wanted Ryuho's spot used this to his advantage and kidnapped Isane right in front of him, ordering him to meet him in 20 minutes in the Valley of the End. When he got there, he was immediately ambushed and had to fight his rival for real. He held back at first, but then his rival realized that and saw it as pity. Enraged, he brought Isane out and tried to kill her. Ryuho went bad. He blocked the attempt and after a short scuffle, he ended his assailant's life with one blow. That was the last person that Ryuho killed. He ended his relation with Isane right there, not because she didn't love him anymore after seeing him kill someone, but because Ryuho could not forgive himself for killing a guy in front of his love.
Ryuho dedicated the next few years of his life to rigorous body and sword training to become the best ninja in the village. He made many friends and contacts. When he was 34, it was obvious that he was the one best suited to become the Hokage after the previous one stepped down.
Hokage of the Leaf:
Ryuho got rid of his serious demeanor and reverted back to his laid-back, careless, happy go lucky kind of personality, much to his joy. He loved the role, respect, and authority that the Hokage position had for him. He was not only loved by his village; citizens and ninja alike, but also ALL of the women in the heavenly Leaf Village! Ryuho focused more on having fun and partying on a weekly, maybe daily, basis. He held Konohagakure together and has never encountered a war in his regime.

Description: Meiro is a Shinshikata Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. Once activated, a giant maze is erected around the perimeter. The maze is made of a nigh-unbreakable stone/concrete and has many passageways; and is formed differently each time. Located somewhere in that maze is an open field where the "prize" box is, where everyone involved in the maze must get to. There'll be clues and hints along the way directing towards that prize box. Also, there's an unbreakable barrier just 10 meters above the maze and 10 meters below the maze. This makes it so people can't just fly out or dig underground.
The truth behind this maze is that whoever gets to the prize box first loses. Once someone gets within 4 meters of the box, the box will automatically open and expel an extremely bright, blinding light. This will stun anyone who looks at it. Then, it'll expel another "prize". The box will significantly sharpen the edge of any blade that's within 10 meters of it aside from the one who first opened it. Thus, the enemy will be blinded and left completely open while Ryuhou closes in for the kill with a sharpened sword, where he'll be able to launch one deadly blow on the target. The maze will dispel completely afterwards.
Weakness: 1 use, overall the difficulty and set-up of this technique itself. Overall, many things could go wrong. Technique costs 90 CP.

Ryuho will strike at various areas from different directions at high speeds, making it seem as if two blurry attacks look like one visible one. The angle and speed causes the opponent to misjudge the amount of attacks. Ryuho will strike two times at the same area but his speed is so great that it only looks like one, making the opponent feel as if his attacks are getting heavy and breaking down own's offense and defense one at a time. A second later, Ryuho will strike two times at another position and repeats this for an overall of seven times, hence Ryuho will hit 14 times but the enemy will see it as seven. This will mean that there'll be seven heavy, muscle-exhausted areas from which Ryuho can strike at any of these areas and that strike will break right through the opponent and slice through their body or they will attack the opponent while they are open. At C-rank level, Ryuho will strike 30 times in just a few seconds at near-untraceable speeds but this time he will hit all over the place, making it seem to the opponent as if there were seven strikes and then a faint blurry cloud of forty strikes. This would give the technique away a bit but it gives the opponent little time to counter or dodge, forcing them to fight by reflex. Eventually, the eenmy will be overwhemed and then suffer some hits. If not, then they will suffer several muscle-exhausted areas all over their body which will cause the body and mind to tire out pretty quickly, giving Ryuho a split second to attack.

Description: Shimekiri Komichi is a Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. With the use of a sword, Ryuho is able to stop and counter any other sword attack. He will use accuracy and speed to keep up with an opponent's attack speed and where their sword will strike, while applying equal force which will drain all power from the blow. This is effective against face-paced multiple sword attacks. After Ryuho has reached the point where he has stopped an enemy attack who cannot use the same sword to attack again (hence by striking at the hilt or bottom of the blade), he will then try to stab the enemy in the heart area multiple times.
Weakness: Range, use disables use of Shinshikata Kenjutsu techniques for 2 posts.

Description: Rokotsu Komichi is a Kenjutsu technique utilized by Ryuho. With the use of a sword, Ryuho will combine a swordsman's attack speed and precision together for lethal strikes. Ryuho will charge his elbow and biceps area with enough chakra to temporarily feed it so it can work at a higher level. He will then strike the opponent and force them to think on their feet by stabbing them multiple times at intense speeds at the lower body area, particulary the hip to knee. The speed Ryuho is using is so intense that if the opponent does not block his attack and instead uses Ryuho's open head area to kill him, Ryuho will be able to stab the lap, knee, and legs several times before the opponent even connects his blade with Ryuho, thus crippling their legs. The opponent is forced to defend their leg area and while that happens, Ryuho will constantly hit the area which is blocked. Eventually, the opponent's focus will be diverted to that of the leg area and they will be busy parrying Ryuho's lower strikes and forgot about the middle area. Ryuho will then suddenly cut right through the edge of the opponent's sword or at least quickly stab right above the sword to stop it from moving, and then forcefully slash his sword up right through the opponent. While they're surprised, Ryuho will rapidly launch several lethal attacks at the opponent's body.
Weakness: Range, greater fatigue and wariness on arm after use (can't utilize hand seals for 2 posts).

Description: Juhi no Jigoku is a barrier Ninjutsu-Fuuinjutsu technique. After forming the handseals, Ryuho erects a restrictive barrier around the target (big or small) that works to bind the target in a cage. Then, a Fuuinjutsu spell is cast to place a seal between the target's mind and chakra, effectively sealing away their chakra control. This means that they're either unable to use chakra techniques anymore or that their chakra fluctuates so wildly that any technique they use will take up much, much more chakra. Once the seal is broken, there'll be a sudden aggravation of the target's chakra for not being able to control their chakra for a period of time, resulting in intense pain.
Weakness: Does not get any chakra discounts; user and allies will be affected if  inside the barrier

Note: This is a canon jutsu, just that Ryuho has mastered all levels of it.
