The user forms a hand seal and raises a column of underground water from beneath their feet, which takes the shape of a high-pressured water blade. If one were to take a direct hit from the blade, it would cut clean through flesh and bone. This technique is perfect for digging through bedrock without creating igniting sparks.
This technique creates a thin plane of water that deals 1d6 damage per three caster levels (max 15d6 at 45). Alternatively, this jutsu can be used to remove a 5x5x5 block per caster level per activation of this jutsu. If used against natural stone or earth, there is no caster level check required, but if used against a jutsu, the caster must first succeed on a caster level check. Success means the technique resolves normally, otherwise the jutsu simply fails to bypass the opponent's effect.
