Description: The Gentle Fist is a form of hand-to-hand combat used by members of the Hyūga clan of Konohagakure. The fighting style itself is one based on redirection, quick strikes, parries, and counters. It inflicts internal damage through attacking the body's Chakra Pathway System, subsequently injuring organs which are closely intertwined with the area of the network which has been struck. To do this, the user surgically injects their own chakra into the opponent's chakra pathway system, causing C-Rank internal damage. If aimed right, this can cause damage to surrounding organs, as well.

By employing the use of the Byakugan they can target the tenketsu to actively seal the opponent's reservoir. These 361 nodes are key gate-keeping interceptions in the chakra circulatory network, and can be actively opened or sealed by Gentle Fist users. The affected person's chakra flow can either be increased or disrupted completely, preventing them from using techniques or making them use more doing so. Since blocking a tenketsu takes only the slightest tap, the user can focus their entire attention on striking quickly and numerous times in a short span of time.

As Gentle Fist users are able to open tenketsu, this is beneficial to those they do it for. For every 32 tenketsu opened, the afflicted person gains an additional 15 chakra points. This effect last five posts, and after they're done the target suffers an exhaustion penalty of one minus to all physical stats for two posts while they recover. This effect can also end early if the afflicted person burns through the excess chakra they've been given.

When closing tenketsu, every tenketsu that's sealed drains 1 chakra from the target. Tenketsu remained closed for a total of six posts, after which they will open back up. They can also be forcibly opened by an outside source of chakra (i.e a bijuu or curse seal), though this requires that source of chakra to equate to the maximum chakra that's already been locked away from the user. If all 361 of a single person's tenketsu are sealed they die.

Additionally, Gentle Fist can be used to perviate chakra-based substances, beit webs, armors and even barriers of up to B (in rank and/or durability). While in use, Gentle Fist boosts a user's Speed by a + and Coordination by a ++. Hyuugas are also able to stun opponents for one post based on how many strikes they've landed (and tenketsu they've sealed), in comparison to the opponent's Constitution.

E-tier Con: 4 hits
D-tier Con: 8 hits
C-tier Con: 16 hits
B-tier Con: 32 hits
A-tier Con: 64 hits
S-tier Con: 128 hits

Weaknesses: Chakra armor that isn't Twin Lion Fists or a unique booster neutralizes a Hyuuga's capability to seal tenketsu as well.

Training Vacuum Palm -- Hyuga wrote:Name: Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm (八卦空掌, Hakke Kūshō)
Rank: C
Power: C (True Damage)
Activation Cost: 5
Upkeep Cost: N/A
Range: 0-5m
Speed: User's Coordination -1 tier
Element: N/A
Skill: Taijutsu
Classification: Hyūga Clan Exclusive
Requirements: Byakugan (to pinpoint tenketsu)
Parent Technique: Gentle Fist
Hand Seals: N/A
Description: This technique is similar in practice to Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven, but has a specific target rather than a general area. To perform it, the user precisely pinpoints the enemy's vital points with the Byakugan and releases a high-speed palm thrust. A "vacuum shell" compressed using the Gentle Fist is formed to attack the opponent's vitals from a distance, blowing them off their feet with tremendous force before they even notice they were hit.

This technique's vacuum shell is a cone 2 meters in diameter. It seals 10 tenketsu if it strikes directly, and keeps them sealed for six posts. Furthermore, unless the opponent possesses Constitution equal to or higher than the technique's Power, they're knocked back 5 meters. This technique can also be used with two hands, which raises its cost to 10. In exchange, it seals 15 tenketsu, and the cone expands to 4 meters in diameter. This is referred to as the 'Vacuum Wall Palm' method, and can simply be used by two Hyuugas using the base technique for the same effect.

Weaknesses: Requires extremely impressive aim to effectively land the tenketsu sealing effect.

Training Tenketsu Needle -- Hyuga wrote:Name: Tenketsu Needle (柔拳・点穴針, Jūken: Tenketsushin)
Rank: C
Power: C (True Damage)
Activation Cost: 5

Range: Contact
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Taijutsu
Classification: Hyūga Clan Exclusive
Requirements: N/A
Parent Technique: Gentle Fist
Hand Seals: N/A
Description: Targeting a single chakra point, the user delivers a two-fingered strike at the opponent, in an attempt to plug the chakra that's being used and halt its flow. Due to the nature of the technique involving using two fingers instead of one, this allows a Gentle Fist user to inject more chakra into the single tenketsu in which they're targetting. This spreads the injected chakra from the single tenketsu that's sealed, spreading to up to four more to seal a total of 5 and seal 5 chakra points from the opponent.

Weaknesses: General Gentle Fist weaknesses.

Training Eight Trigrams Palm Revolving Heaven -- Hyuga wrote:Name: Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven (八卦掌回天, Hakkeshō Kaiten)
Rank: C
Power: Varies

Upkeep Cost: One rank below initial payment

Speed: User's Base Coordination

Classification: Hyūga Clan Exclusive

Parent Technique: Gentle Fist

Description: This technique utilizes the chakra control gained through Gentle Fist training to release a large amount of chakra from all the chakra points on the user's body. It is also a defensive maneuver to compensate for the Byakugan's blind spot as the released chakra blocks any possible attack on the user. After releasing chakra from every tenketsu in their body, the user then spins rapidly to parry the attack, both creating a rotating shield of chakra around themselves and tossing away any nearby attackers. The user can also actively control the size and power of the sphere to suit the situation. The technique is also capable of reflecting an opponent's chakra against them. It is an extremely chakra efficient technique, with most of its difficulty coming in keeping the form of the chakra up rather than the simple expenditure of chakra.

Physical attacks are all repelled by this violent rotation, making it very difficult to penetrate the defense. Chakra of any kind may be repelled, as the rotating shield of chakra simply forces any chakra that touches it off for the duration of the spin. The user may increase the range and power of the Rotation at will to encompass a larger area or produce a denser shield for stronger attacks. This is done by increasing the amount of chakra used to activate the technique, with a C-Rank payment resulting in forming a rotating shield of chakra possessing C-Rank Power and spreading 2 meters out around the user. This allows the technique to defend against C-Rank and below attacks or techniques that do not destabilize the user's ability to spin. By increasing the amount of chakra paid, the user is able to increase this technique's defensive capabilities.

Weaknesses: This technique is only effective when rotating, since the chakra itself is not enough to stop a physical attack thus if they cannot spin, the user becomes vulnerable. The chakra rotation can be disrupted by some kind of hardy threading such as chakra flowed ninja wire or chakra threads, which slows down the user, binding and tangling them in, and ultimately forces them to stop. The user must also remain stationary for the usage of the technique, meaning a foe must simply wait for the user to stop spinning before attacking again.
