Wind Release



The area of elemental Nature Transformation are offensive type techniques that allow the user to manipulate wind by shaping their chakra to be as sharp and as thin as possible, not unlike the blades of a pair of scissors.

The rarest (though the affinity appears to be common among ninja of Sunagakure) of the five basic elemental chakra natures, Wind Release techniques are suited for short-to-mid-range combat, and combine brute force and precision to deal cutting and slashing damage. Users can even channel wind-natured chakra into blades to increase their range and cutting power. Wind Release manipulation is achieved by learning how to split a leaf in two with chakra then halting the flow of water.

Wind Release is naturally strong against lightning, but likewise, Wind Release is also naturally weak against fire. In the case of a combination, it augments the strength of a Fire Release technique as well as increases the concussive power of a Water Release technique. In the case of a fusion, wind-natured chakra when mixed with water-natured chakra produces Ice Release.
