When the comforts of civilization begin to dull our senses, we must never forget that in the beginning, there was war. And war. And more war. Long before there were empires, there were humans consumed with greed and the hunger for power. Resources, territories, information—these were the forms of sustenance upon which we preyed. Today, we call such habits vices. Oh, how arrogant we have become! Are we not still impelled by those primordial emotions? Is the advent of war so far-fetched? But alas, for you to truly understand, we must dive deeper into this land’s half-forgotten past.
There was a time when might was the only law that humankind knew. Fearsome clans roamed throughout the land, seeking amenable grounds within which they could take root and opposing forces against whom they could test their mettle. Given the irregularity of nature’s bounty, certain regions appealed more than others, and dominion over such coveted territories became the spark that ignited the earliest inter-clan wars. These fierce, internecine affairs tended to conclude only when one side had decimated their competition into oblivion, and many clans of story were rendered extinct during this period.
The victors of war, having claimed their territories, often made truces with surrounding locals, offering protection in exchange for access to the yields of agriculture. Over time, certain communities emerged as more dominant than others, either due to numbers or sheer talent, and their rapid expansion would force smaller, neighboring communities to either collapse into their fold or be devastated. When the dust settled, humankind found itself divided into the five major territories that we are familiar with today. And was the bloodshed over? With our lands obtained and our bellies filled, were we finally content?

Youton, or Lava Element, takes the form of melting attacks and defenses. Although this elemental style has been used and made famous by the Yonbi Bijuu Son Goku, who developed this style with the help of his many Jinchuuriki in the past, a few unique humans have been born with the power of control over it as well. It has also been used by Godaime Mizukage through the use of her bloodline limit. Rock kunoichi Kurotsuchi has also used this style. Youton is formed through the simultaneous usage of Fire and Earth styles, and can instantaneously produce lava and magma capable of corroding almost anything.[break][break]
2. Youton requires mastery (50% of listed jutsu) of both the Doton (Earth) and Katon (Fire) releases.[break][break]
Youton Shuriken no Jutsu (Lava Shuriken Technique)[break] Rank: C[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)[break] Type: Offensive[break] Handseals: 2[break] Chakra Consumption: Low per shuriken[break] The Lava Shuriken is a Ninjutsu technique that allows the user to utilize their lava powers in order to create deadly projectiles. After gathering lava in their mouth, the user will then spit disks of molten magma at their opponent, a bit larger than conventional shuriken. Spinning through the air at high speeds, these disks are deadly in strength, inflicting large amounts of damage to the target and surrounding objects, as well as burning through almost everything.[break][break]
Note: These shuriken have burning/cutting power similar to level 4 Strength, and Move at level 4 speed.[break][break]
Youton: Wagomu (Lava Release: Rubber Rope)[break] Rank: C[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)[break] Type: Supplementary[break] Handseals: 2[break] Chakra Consumption: Mid[break] After performing the necessary Handseals, the user creates a rope with lava converted into a rubber-like material. It can then be used to quickly withdraw an ally off the attack line. This rubber whip can extend up to its maximum length (five meters) and shrink upon the user’s command, though they must be touching the rope in order to make it do such.[break][break]
Note: This rope has durability of similar to level 5 defense.[break][break]
Youton: Sekkaigyou no Jutsu (Lava Release: Quicklime Congealing Technique)[break] Rank: C[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)[break] Type: Supplementary[break] Handseals: 4[break] Chakra Consumption: Mid; High (optional)[break] One of the branch-off youton techniques, Sekkaigyou no Jutsu does not involve dissolving the enemy; rather, it involves capturing them with the unique quicklime substances generated. After performing the necessary Handseals, the user expels a large quantity of quicklime from their mouth (the substance, when fanned out away from the ‘jet’, is roughly 10x10 meters). After this technique has been set, the user may add water into the equation which will cause it to harden in a similar manner to quick-drying cement. Furthermore, adding water can also double the area covered.[break][break]
Note: Without adding water, the quicklime will harden in two posts. However, for a High cost, the user may emit a jet of water to immediately harden it (regardless of it they possess the water element). This quicklime will harden in 5 seconds afer settling on a target, once harden it has the durability of level 5 defense.[break][break]
Youton: Shojoukazan (Lava Release: Blasting Lava Globs)[break] Rank: B[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)[break] Type: Supplementary[break] Handseals: 4[break] Chakra Consumption: Mid per glob[break] The premiere Lava Release ability, this allows the user to emit several globs of lava which all vary in size (with the absolute largest being 2x2 meters). After performing the necessary Handseals, the user will fill their mouth with lava before spitting them at their targets. Due to lava’s unique liquid-like nature, these globs are often deformed and splatter as they travel (lava debris can reach up to a meter away from the glob, itself, and should be [break][break]Noted) to their target. Once striking a substance, these globs can harden, making the perfect use for closing doorways when not melting the flesh and bone of their victims.[break][break] Note: These blobs have burning/blasting power similar to level 6 Strength, and Move at level 6 speed.[break][break]
Youton: Gomudama (Lava Release: Rubber Ball)[break] Rank: B[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)[break] Type: Defensive[break] Handseals: 1[break] Chakra Consumption: 2x Mid[break] the user expels a large glob of lava from their mouth, which quickly solidifies into a hollow ball that can be used to protect an object by surrounding it with the durable rubber-like material. The properties of this substance mean that it can both absorb and dissipate the force behind a blow when struck, resulting in it either deforming or bouncing upon impact. This technique can defend against any technique beneath its strength level below 5, though a single strike from anything higher will “pop” the dome. Furthermore, the user can opt to create a rubber tube that is capable of sustaining two people within it. The same defensive properties apply.[break][break]
Note: This rubber has durability similar to level 5 defense.[break][break]
Youton: Inmetsutokeomu Kazan (Lava Release: Erupting Volcano Destruction)[break] Rank: A[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)[break] Type: Offensive[break] Handseals: 12[break] Chakra Consumption: 2x High[break] the user will press their palms to the ground. A large lava geyser emerges from the soil, and then advances directly against an opponent. This technique is easily capable of swallowing a large amount of shinobi at a single time (roughly ten), but can be put out by a reasonably powerful Water Release technique.[break][break]
Note: The specific dimensions of this rush of lava is 10x10x10 meters. This lava burns/erupts with an intensity similar to level 7 strength. [break][break]
Youton: Youkai no Jutsu (Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique)[break] Rank: A[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)[break] Type: Offensive[break] Handseals: 6[break] Chakra Consumption: High[break] The advanced version of the Blasting Lava Glob technique, this technique is more encompassing. After performing the necessary Handseals, the user releases a large amount of lava from their mouth, which spreads into a broad, thin sheet as it travels through the air (roughly 5x5 meters). Since it is shot upwards in an arc so as to descend onto the targets from above, it prevents the intended individuals from jumping up to avoid the attack. A great deal of smoke is created afterwards by the effects of the lava, so should the target(s) be alive, a follow-up attack can be conducted while their vision remains obscured.[break][break] Note: this technique requires level Blasting Lava Glob technique and have burning/cutting power similar to level 7 Strength, and Move at level 7 speed.[break][break]
Youton: Gomuheki (Lava Release: Rubber Wall)[break] Rank: A[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)[break] Type: Defensive[break] Handseals: 5[break] Chakra Consumption: High[break] the user will expel a jet of lava from their mouth which quickly solidifies into a rubber-like substance. This rubber then rapidly expands into a 10x5x3 (ten meters tall; five meters wide; 3 meters thick) defensive wall capable of protecting them from even the most potent of attacks. Due to its composition, it can absorb the force of blows and effortlessly distribute it across the entirety of its surface. [break][break] Note: This technique may be used by four separate shinobi simultaneously to multiple the wall's size by said amount (i.e four). This technique has durability similar to level 7 defense.
[break][break] Youton: Shakugaryuugan no Jutsu (Lava Release: Scorching Stream Rock Technique)[break] Rank:S[break] Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10)[break] Type: Offensive[break] Handseals: 2[break] Chakra Consumption: High per projectile[break] the user expels a large amount of lava from their mouth, which quickly solidifies into multiple boulders of molten rock that are fired towards the target with tremendous force. Due to their composition, the boulders can melt through most objects with ease, and because a considerable number are dispersed over a wide Range in quick succession, they are also difficult to avoid. Note: this technique requires level Blasting Lava Glob technique and have burning/cutting power similar to level 8 Strength, and Moves at level 7 speed.[break][break]
