Hiraishin (Flying Thunder God)
Rank: S
Type: Neutral
History: The absolute origin of the Hiraishin is unknown, though sources in the ninja world trace it back to the very creation of ninjutsu. Legends about the Hiraishin’s origins abound, the most prevalent being that it was a gift from the Thunder God himself to the first shinobi. The Hiraishin is held by historians to be the first instant motion technique, one of myriad said to exist in the far past. These alleged other techniques either never existed or have been lost to the pages of history. Regardless, the Hiraishin is the only existing technique known today to transport the user from one location to another without traversing the distance in between. Use of the Hiraishin was once widespread, so common that seals were actually developed to counter-act the Flying Thunder God technique. However, once again, as time passed, the art of these counter-seals as well as the knowledge of the technique itself have dwindled, almost to nonexistence. Today, only a select number of elite ninja know the Hiraishin.
Appearance: The Hiraishin is a relatively discreet and nondescript seal. It is small, and can fit on the palm of a hand or a small sheet of paper. The seal is rather complicated, but designed elegantly. In the center of the seal there is a large kanji, meaning ‘Here’. Surrounding it is Kanji for an incantation, showing the complexity of the seal. Organized in a thin circle around the central kanji, the incantation reads “Forth, with timeless, infinite speed, comes to this spot, saint, paragon, son of Thunder, through all things and all time come”.
Effect: Allows the user to teleport instantly to the seal.
Description: The incantation of this seal is very powerful one. From the instant it is placed, it maintains a miniscule chakra signal that is transmitted to the user at all times. When the user activates the seal, they will be minimized into a pure chakra packet and transferred instantly to the location of the seal, much like a space-time transit technique like Kuchiyose. They are reformed as they arrive in an instant. This works by synchronizing bodily chakra with the signal, which them in turn will reverberate and activate the incantation, which summons the user to the seal.

Hiraishin Senkou (Flying Thunder God Flash)
Rank: S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Teleports the user instantly to the Hiraishin seal.
Special: Tiger
Drawback: Requires intense concentration, the user may potentially place themselves in a dangerous situation. Seal only functions in a one kilometer radius. Requires 300 TP to learn.
Description: The user forms the tiger seal, synchronizing their chakra with the signal from the seal. The seal will in turn activate, and the incantation will transmit the user via a packet of pure, high frequency chakra to the seal in the blink of an eye. The user reforms and is in whole once again, exactly as they were in their original location. Known as one of the deadliest assassination techniques in existence, the Hiraishin is also one of the most difficult to learn. Despite it's difficulty, however, it only consumes chakra like a B ranked technique.
Limit: Must known Hiraishin Placement. Must learn from Alexander, Kaiser, or Izumi.
Hiraishin Tairiku Senkou (Flying Thunder God Continent Flash)
Rank: S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user to teleport to any seal within an unlimited distance, as long as the user has physically visited it before.
Special: Tiger
Drawback: Requires highly intense concentration, requires 150 TP to learn, the user must have visited the seal the before they can teleport to it.
Description: The user forms the hand seal, focusing their chakra and synchronizing it with any seal signal, no matter how distant it is. Like the Hiraishin Senkou, the user is rematerialized via chakra at the location an instant later. Reflecting the difficulty of such distant transfers, this consumes a full S rank technique of chakra.
