Name: Sagakuryuu (Art Of The Balance Fist)
Rank: A
Jutsu Type: Taijutsu
Element: N/A
Duration/Cooldown: -
Range: Close
Appearance:
Revolving around handwork, speed, agility and marksmanship. For the users of this style of close quarters combat they have to find balance within there movements and striking. This Goken compared to Sagaku is very much the same when it comes down to the movement of the feet and the kicking structures, the handwork is different, warriors of the Goken aim for the bones of the body meanwhile Sagaku aim for the muscles of the body. One thing they are rarely trained in is strength, that is only if mandatory due to failure of attacking effect. The user of this style study the pressure points, vital areas and most of all muscles to where breaking there opponent down can be a matter of a one, two, three move if experienced enough.
What it does:
Punches/Jabs~
The Balance fist is utilized by hitting pressure points of the body. To be a close quarter combat combatant you must have a fast body but this style of fighting teaches the student how to specifically move fast with the use of the arms. The Style punches are different from Goken and Juken due to not using full fist when it comes to punches or jabs but rather the use of knuckles which usually is the index and middle finger knuckles after balling up a fist or maybe even fingers if experienced enough. The purpose of the knuckles is so that it can make the attack lighter, and lighter equals more speed for one. Secondly, they are meant to hit in pressure points or muscles used to temporarily shut down functions in the limbs or body part or even damage the muscles rendering them useless. Do not mistaken this for Juken, it has nothing to do with the chakra points of the body but more trying to take down there opponent with fast "quick jabs" or "punches". Never has the user been taught to do a basic punch, even taught to attack with the wrist of the aim, punches could be influenced by the Drunken Fist and that the stances of balance could also be inspired by it.
Acrobatics/Agility~
Without this part the students of Sagaku could possibly be at a disadvantage, the jabs and punches are of no use with out being able to mix it up now and then. The students are required to work on flexibility and movement, this was to strengthen there legs when it came down to all it has to do with legs. This is where the kicking with Goken are very alike in many ways. Due to the high speed of the punches and jabs, the kicks look much slower then any other attacks. The objectives are to be able to train the students so that they can flip, jump high into the air and be able to make fluid and very unpredictable movements unlike the predictable Goken. So most experienced Taijutsu users using this style of balance are able to not use chakra at all and move through any amount of jutsu through just solid movement or by jumping. Although a very useful method of fighting, the legwork is vital to this style of fighting and is used to not only get close but to give in powerful attacks behind the light and quick jabs.
