Talk:Earth Release: Reduced-Weight Rock Technique

Dust release?
Shouldn't this technique be listed as dust type since Onoki can't be plain levitating and it kinda makes sense that he makes invisible dust molecules that lift him up. T0rw0ri (talk) 16:02, May 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * It might also be a wind release technique, or non-elemental. --ShounenSuki (talk 16:19, May 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, I see. We'll just have to wait to find out more.. (although it seemed like a no-brainer to me :) ) T0rw0ri (talk) 09:52, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

Onoki's Levitation
If you look carefully when Akatsuchi uses his golem technique, it shows him and Onoki standing on the roof. But when Onoki is about to use his cube jutsu, he appears to be floating. But really, he is just floating BACK down to the floor.
 * In chapter 467, he is floating in mid-air.--Deva 27 (talk) 04:05, July 29, 2010 (UTC)

Since they believe that he could fly through the rocky Cloud and find that island, should we not say how he is able to go higher than what was shown in that enclosed room at the Kage summit? GoldenTopaz (talk) 01:44, October 8, 2010 (UTC)

another user.
hello there is another user who can also use this technique, nagato. and ican confirm this.

THANKYOU.
 * I thought that was just a real big jump using chakra (which he had a lot of). GoldenTopaz (talk) 17:33, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

It was a sustained shinra ensei he used before using his gigantic shinra tensei. --RinneganLov63 (talk) 18:19, October 13, 2010 (UTC). Remember he could, thanks to his Rinnegan, manipulate the gravity.

Therefore, by removing the gravity from its diameter, (which would mean zero gravity) he was basically able to float(talk)

Akatsuchi and Kurotsuchi
They are able to use it too, we all can see it in chapter 513.
 * Did you completely miss the part where the Tsuchikage is the one to perform this technique on them? —ShounenSuki (talk 15:32, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

Sure, I did. Or it's better saying that I really didn't remember he was the one to performe the jutsu on them. Thanks.

A confirmed user?
Muu showed that he can fly in chapter 552. And it doesn't look like a high jump since he changed positions and had enough time to do a Jinton.
 * Apparently we're waiting until next week to uhm, get a better angle for confirmation O.o?--Cerez365™ Hyūga Symbol.svg 11:50, August 25, 2011 (UTC)

Flying
Could it be possible that his flight and the ability to give others the ability is a result of his ability to make things weight change? Basicly making them weightless to where they float?

Also his Dust release allows for him to edit particles would editing a persons/objects particles cause there weight to change? Would that make it part of Dust release if it were true?--24.216.163.177 (talk) 09:53, October 29, 2011 (UTC)

Flight and Light-Weight Rock Technique
Chapter 563 page 13 confirms the connection between the two.

Kabuto had a flashback of Onoki's punch being too weak when he was flying; an observation he associated with Light-Weight Rock Technique.

A more technical explanation is that his punch had a much weaker momentum due to it's smaller mass (in this case, equivalent to weight), since momentum is the product of mass and speed.--NoJutsu (talk) 22:34, November 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Kabuto does not understand the workings of this technique. S im A nt 22:41, November 9, 2011 (UTC)

Still I think it bears thought, that there is absolutely no difference between when he bestowed flight upon Aka and Kurotsuchi and when he lightens anything else. It appears to be the same technique just applied to a person instead of an object.Rayfire (talk) 02:12, January 30, 2012 (UTC)

1) This discussion is nearly 3 months old.

2)You can't say there's "absolutely no difference" between those instances since not even characters in the series (even Kabuto) don't understand how it works, much less you. For all we know, in the instance where he hit Kabuto, he also had Light-weight Rock going. Skitts (talk) 03:49, January 30, 2012 (UTC)

@SimAnt, why wouldn't kabuto know? We're talking about a guy that can deduct the nature of a technique and how much damage it will inflict and pre-apply a healing technique before being hit. We're talking about a guy with intelligence on par with kakashi. Saying he wouldn't know is nonsense. MangekyoSasuke (talk) 06:04, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

although i think too little has been shown to classify the flight technique as the light weight rock technique, i do however think that it's note worthy to mention something in the trivia section for the flight technique. would that suffice?98.26.240.179 (talk) 06:26, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Is no one going to take his suggestion and add it to the trivia section? MangekyoSasuke (talk) 04:57, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

by all means go ahead.98.26.240.179 (talk) 06:50, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, don't know how to do it myself.:(MangekyoSasuke (talk) 19:29, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

No adding. We're waiting for databook. That's why they haven't been merged or anything like that.--Cerez 365 ™(talk) 20:45, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

yeah but a trivia section mentioning the similarities of it won't hurt would it?98.26.240.179 (talk) 20:51, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

Game users
In the Naruto Shippuden: Kizuna Drive game Gensui Amagiri and Yomito Hirasaka was shown to use a form of levitation, Gensui by apparently Telekenetic means whilst Yomito simply levitated, i think these should be considered users of this technique, though Gensui could have a page created under Telekenesis as his levitation comes from the appliance of telekenetic power so it could be considered seperate on his side however Yomito would definately be considered a user of the flight technique, is there any objections to list him as a user of the technique? --Zenryoku90 (talk) 00:44, March 7, 2012 (UTC)
 * The manga technique accounts for full flight, including change in direction and speed. Do they display those? If they do, I don't oppose it. However, I don't think it's necessary to create an unnamed article if the information can be simply added to their articles. Those aren't characters whose articles we don't stuff with game content.

Konan and Pain
Both Konan and Pain were using this technique, Pain while preparing the Shinra Tensei which destroyed Konoha, and Konan was using it during her fight with Tobi, after she injured him the first time. It always looked like her paper-wings gave her the ability, but there weren't any wings after her attack. Ogga111 (talk) 18:53, September 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * Pain was an overtly dramatic jump and Konan flies with her Dance of the Shikigami technique. This article is about Ōnoki flying and allowing others to do the same.--Cerez 365 ™Hyūga Symbol.svg(talk) 19:03, September 14, 2012 (UTC)

 * Indeed, it can be clearly seen after he withstood Tobirama's attack and when Hiruzen bombards him with giant Shuriken.Norleon (talk) 12:07, July 17, 2013 (UTC)

Onoki
Am I really the only one who thinks Onoki flies by becoming lighter with his dotonjutsu? Seelentau 愛議 12:24, July 17, 2013 (UTC)
