Rock Armour


 * Name:
 * Type: B-rank, Offensive/Defensive, Short range (0-5m)
 * Hand Seals: Snake
 * User: Fudo

Working Of Jutsu
This technique makes earth-chakra flow through the body, absorbing the properties of stone around the user to form a skin-deep armor that is transparent yet reflects light with a metallic-like gleam. Despite encasing the user’s body, the armor has no apparent affect on the user’s speed or agility. Because this jutsu works by constantly absorbed earth properties, it requires no extra chakra after initiating it.

Effects
The armor is shown to be able to defend from all forms of blunt-force trauma. At the same time, it enhances the user's strength for more powerful physical strikes and break free or through restraints and walls.

Drawbacks
It still needs a sufficient amount of stone to be performed. While powerful, it is highly absorbent and too much water will eventually affect the user’s mobility and reduce its defensive might. Also if in a muddy terrain, the user’s excess weight can lead to sinking.

Uses
To both defend the user and enable him to land powerful blows.

Variants
