Name of Seal: Akkankaji: Kitsune
Rank: E-S
Location of the Seal: The Kitsune seal is a variation of the Akkankaji seal and appears on the base of the possessor's neck. It appears as an intricate circular seal with a large "Lightning" kanji in the center. Though the tattoo over the chakra network fades when not active, the seal at the base of the neck never does and the ink seems to take on a striking yellow hue at all times.
Preparations: -- See Above --
Transformation Process:
- E Rank - (Genin) - Issanni (Top Speed) - The Kitsune seal forces raw chakra into the possessor's muscle structure increasing the affected person's movement and attacking speed. The speed granted is usually so much that stopping and changing directions are never easy mid movement.
- D Rank - (Genin) - Kitsune Maindo (Kitsune's Mind) - The Kitsune seal forces raw chakra into the sections of the possessor's brain and allow the affected person to think clearly even in the most stressful of situations. This person's analytical skills will remain the same but the possessor's ability to think quickly on their feet will be able to take over.
- C Rank - (Chuunin) - Kitsune Bi (Fox Fire) - The Kitsune seal will force the tattoos on the chakra circulatory system to surface and begin glowing a striking yellow. These tattoos will immediately begin to gather Lightning chakra from around the user at a high rate and allow the affected person to manifest collections of electrical charges that expand and move much like a spreading fire would. These "electrical fires" can be used and both attack and defense and obey the will of the possessor.
- B Rank - (Chuunin) - Hoshi no Tama (Star Ball) - The Kitsune seal will force the tattoos on the chakra circulatory system to surface and begin glowing a striking yellow. These tattoos will immediately begin to gather Lightning chakra from around the user at a high rate and allow the affected person to manifest large orbs of pure chakra outside their body to be accessed at a later time. These orbs crackle with electrical energy and fade after a short time but can serve as powerful batteries for Lightning element jutsu.
- A Rank - (Jounin) - Kitsunetsuki (Possessed by the Fox) - The Kitsune seal will force the tattoos on the chakra circulatory system to surface and begin glowing a striking yellow along with the possessor's eyes taking on the same color. The users chakra circulatory system will begin to consume and compress Lightning chakra from the air around the possessor at such a rapid rate that the use of any other elemental chakra will be impossible. Lightning techniques increase in power and become second nature, requiring no hand seals, while the seal possessor becomes enveloped in a pocket of crackling electricity. The affected person's speed will increase to a near superhuman rate and they will leave bolts of lightning in their wake.
- S Rank - (Kage/S) - Banzen Kitsune (Perfect Kitsune) - The Kitsune seal will force the tattoos on the chakra circulatory system to surface and begin glowing a striking yellow along with the possessor's eyes taking on the same color. There is so much Lightning chakra present in the user's body that some of it begins to leak out and the excess of chakra begins to form the illusion of a fox-like Kitsune demon around the users own body and prevents the affected person from external harm. The users chakra circulatory system will begin to consume and compress Lightning chakra from the air around the possessor at such a rapid rate that the use of any other elemental chakra will be impossible. Lightning techniques increase in power and become second nature, requiring no hand seals, while the seal possessor becomes enveloped in a defined pocket of crackling electricity. The affected person's speed will increase to a near superhuman rate and they will leave bolts of lightning in their wake. It is at this point that the possessor can compress raw Lightning chakra into a vicious ranged attack that can bypass most protections.
Positive Effects on Target: The person possessing a Kitsune seal is able to manipulate Lightning element chakra much easier then they normally could. One under the effects of a Kitsune seal will see an increase in their overall speed.
Negative Effects on User: Over use of releasing the seal can cause strain on the user's chakra circulatory system to the point of tears forming and eventually death. Transformations C Rank and below put a strain on the body and quickly tire the user while B Rank transformations and above have an increasing chance to cause permanent damage with prolonged use.
Seal Info: The Kitsune seal is the variation of Akkankaji that can only be placed on people who have an especially strong affinity in their chakra to the Lightning element. This is required because when activated, the seal will only allow that form of chakra to be molded in the body.
