Itta

## Name

Fuinjutsu is a discipline that requires a strong eclectic base of knowledge. Continual research within fuinjutsu will only lead you to other knowledge seekers, unveiling darkened mysteries of our reality through every unlocked echelon of mastery available together.

It is by the very nature of the fuin arts that has led Ketsugo into collaborations with mystic users of spacetime, the Jigen Clan, which was only deepened through his connection with Zoshima. As a mere exercise of this collaboration, Itta, the quintessential etude of spacetime Ninjutsu was born. It is a technique that accurately compartmentalizes and successfully utilizes the very foundational elements of all spatial space time techniques.

It is a technique that accurately compartmentalizes and successfully utilizes the very foundational elements of all spatial space time techniques.

## Description

Itta is a 2 part technique that breaks down all spatial techniques into its elementary parts.

The actual complexity of its mechanism is often beyond all human conception, but it can be best illustrated by a simple piece of paper and a pencil.

Imagine that you were born on this piece of paper, as this piece of paper being the entirety of your world. It is where you grew up, where you lived, and where you will die.

You, a humble 2 dimensional entity, are free to move to the left, and to the right, and even jump up and down if you'd like.

You can even fly around if you feel so compelled but your freedom is ultimately confined to this *two dimensional cross section of space*. If that paper was folded, crumpled or displaced, you would be entirely and blissfully unaware, only bearing witness of its effects.

Now with this hypothetical in mind, imagine that someone were to **fold** this paper in half, and puncture a hole in it with the pencil or pen. You, the paper person, would see a *rather strange phenomena*: a *hole* tore open in your frame of existence, and another *simultaneously* created at a distance. The pencil entering that hole would seem to disappear and reappear instantly at the other side at the further location.

*This is the basis of all transportation space time ninjutsu*, except instead of a 3 dimensional folding of a 2 dimensional space in time, it is a *higher dimensional folding* of our dimension of space in time.

So naturally Itta folds the 4 dimensional paper of our reality, so that two points in our spatial reality are touching tangentially. It then **punches** out a segment of that space with varying degrees of finesse, thus placing it at the other side.

## Prerequisite Mastery

The shape, fidelity, distance and timing of the translation is dependent on several factors: respectively, the users mastery of *Fuinjutsu*, mastery over *Space Time ninjutsu,* *Chakra Reserves*, and finally *Chakra Control*. A deficit or mastery in each of these areas will affect the appearance and efficacy thereof in several unique ways:

### Chakra reserves

The bending of space time requires a tremendous amount of energy. Technically, true space time techniques should require a near infinite amount of energy to pull off, but the ways of Shinobi ninjutsu and chakra works in mysterious ways. Even so, it has been seen time and time again that space time techniques leave a tremendous strain on the human body, even Kage level Jonin are not immune to its extremely taxing nature.

Poor reserves will limit or exclude your use of the Itta technique. It will directly affect how far you'll be able to travel. Those with limited reserves may only have enough energy to transport an object or even themselves only a couple of feet, while those with Mammoth reserves can travel across miles, while still those with bottomless reserves may be able to travel across continents before submitting to complete exhaustion.

### Chakra Control

The users Chakra control will chiefly determine how efficient this technique may utilized. Someone with higher levels of Chakra control will be able to use this technique in closer succession, and multiple times before succumbing to the same level of exhaustion and fatigue as a contemporary with equal level of mastery and reserves. Higher levels of chakra control may even reduce the strain the technique puts on your body as well as reduce the time of recovery from the technique and execution thereof, though the latter is chiefly carried by ones fuinjutsu expertise.

### Fuinjutsu mastery

This being a Fuin spacetime specialty, ones mastery of the Fuin arts is the penultimate factor in ones mastery over Itta. It alone decides on the speed of prep time, the speed of execution, the fidelity of displacement, as well as the indelibility of the seal. One’s mastery can spell the difference between life and death for the user, second in importance only one other factor.

### Space Time Mastery

This is the Ultimate factor in one’s prowess over Itta. Without it, one cannot even begin with this technique, despite otherworldy knowledge. In this did Ketsugo's clandestine contemporaries help of the Jigen Clan the most in his development of his unique technique.

With space time Mastery, all other factors of Itta will be improved dramatically, but it is the combination of these interdisciplinary methods that make Itta even remotely possible. In this did Ketsugo have an edge over his space bound comrades, even amidst those whose lives revolved around the practice of spacetime techniques.

## Tiers

There are *Three Tiers* of mastery when it comes to this technique.

The first tier revolves around the Itta of solid objects and can further more be broken down into 3 stages.

### Tier 1

#### Level 1

The first level of mastery are available to those who have at least a 20% mastery in Spacetime ninjutsu, and least Genin level in Fuinjutsu Mastery with a great teacher. Itta requires advanced levels of Chakra and a higher degree of intelligence to make anything of this instruction (highly experienced levels of chakra reserves with exceptional levels of chakra control will fair well as well.)
In this initial level of mastery, the complexities of the Jutsu are broken down into a few base fuins that are easy to place and easier to utilize. This ease comes at the cost of extreme chakra taxation and a smaller degree of fidelity available to the user:

The size of the transportation is fixed, so users must be careful that all the contents of the technique can safely within the transportation barrier.

Prep time of at least 10 seconds or 2- 3 posts are necessary prerequisite for successful transportation, and you are limited to 1 to 2 instances of itta per battle, depending on the distance of transportation.

Maximum distances allotted is 1 mile

Exceeding these limits will subject your transportation to catastrophic failure.

#### Level 2

This next level mastery requires at least a 28% mastery in Fuinjutsu along with the previous level's prerequisite conditions. With a higher level of Fuinjutsu master comes at the benefit of having more options available. Delving deeper into adjustable parameters of Itta, one can now choose from a variety of predefined basic shapes (Sphere, Cube, Cuboid, prism ect). One can also choose the size and magnitude of the transportation field along with the distance of translation, the latter two being a factor of the users chakra reserves, and the former an equivalent of the users Fuin expertise and chakra control.
An increase in mastery over spacetime ninjutsu and intelligence will facilitate the ease of use as well as speed of the technique. The combination of these aspects lead to greater security and accuracy of use as well as reduced prep and cool down time.

* Prep time: 5- 6 seconds or 2 posts respectively.
* Number of instances: 2 - 4
* Maximum distance: 2 miles (Maxed out)

#### Level 3

This level requires at least a 35% mastery in the Fuin arts and at least 27% mastery in Space time Ninjutsu, along with increase reserves of Chakra, and chakra control.

You are quite experienced in the utility of this technique.

You can create the seals and necessary arrangements to activate the Jutsu in seconds. This level of mastery has been acquired through years of master as well as an increase in Fuinjutsu and Space time Prowess. You are capable of creating and forming, through the use of your fuin expertise and chakra control, incredibly complex multifaceted geometry for the base of your Transportation Barriers, thus affording an even higher level of fidelity of transposition. You are able to extend the range of your translations for miles and do so multiple times before giving way to inevitable and inexorable fatigue. The expected leaps in prep in cool down times are as follows

* Prep time: 3- 5 seconds or 2 posts respectively.
* Number of instances: 5 - 6
* Maximum distance: 5 miles (Maxed out)

#### Tier 1 MAX

40% mastery of fuinjutsu, or special chunin levels of mastery in both Fuinjutsu and Spacetime ninjutsu are required for the maximum level of mastery of this Tier. You've also likely acquired immense levels of chakra reserves or Highly advanced levels of Chakra along with immense levels of chakra control.

*Congratulations*.

You've honed your practice and expression of Itta over the years, and have now reached this level where you can use Itta almost by instinct, taking just over a second from prep time execution of an incredibly secure Itta.

Utilizing the highest fidelity of Itta, you've likely acquired some level of understanding of algorithmic fuinjutsu, allotting for the perfect spatial transposition of complex shapes. Your level of fuin mastery along with your impeccable chakra control, paired with impressive reserves allows you several repetitions of Itta in a string of succession before require any notable cool down period. Your range of Itta has also dramatically improved, allowing you to transport items across cities and villages before experiencing any notable exhaustion.

You are ready to begin you transitory training for **Stage 2** of Itta technique, that is if you are *bold* enough to *take it to the next level*.

* Prep time: 1.5 seconds or 1-2 posts against particularly fast opponents.
* Number of instances: 12+
* Maximum distance: across villages

### Training for Advanced Itta

Preparatory Exercises for the beginning of Tier 2 Mastery

* Itta a delicate electronic appliance, such as a smart phone or computer without damaging it, maintaining full functionality and utility of all of its assets.
* Itta a house plant without killing it
* Itta a fish out of a pond back into a pond in perfect condition
* Itta a beloved family pet from one location to another

### Tier 2

All your training have lead up to this point. You are now ready to begin the road towards true mastery of Itta:

**There are no shortcuts**.

One requires at least a 50% mastery in Fuinjutsu, and Spacetime ninjutsu, with rather fine levels of chakra control and incredibly robust reserves thereof to boot.

You would not have gotten this far without a fairly advanced level of intelligence, however, you may have gotten by without a strong physical constitution.

This will no longer abide.

Without it, you may get by with unfathomable levels of chakra control, though you may not survive even one failure, for now you are at the highest, most ludicrous tier of Itta:

***The translation of one's self.***

#### Level 1

Get ready for you first trans-dimensional voyage! All your friends and family are besides themselves with grief and embittered remorse, as they believe what you are attempting to do is suicide, (they hoped that you would stop with the family pet but no). You have faith and confidence in your body and your abilities: you’ve transported dogs, plants, and even small objects in motion without fail and are now ready to enter the Itta yourself.

The user requires a great deal of concentration and preparation to attempt the journey as mystic ruins glow across their entire body. They reverberate with a spectral glow as they are charged with an other worldly amount of chakra. The unfathomable intensity of these runes scar and burn into your flesh, but you are undeterred in both concentration and will. Standing perfectly still within the frame well rehearsed pose of the users liking, the crafter of Itta carves out a silhouette of their being within the very fabric of space and time: a complex order of 4 dimensional polygons and planal morphs. Still, your control is not perfect, and to make up for that, the mold of your translation is little larger than it needs to be for a safer margin of error, clothing and items are often lost but the user is maintained in perfect health, picking up ambient wind and dust along your journey.

The user must close their eyes for the sake of focus and avoid the mind altering effect of a trans-dimensional voyage. With a glitched out flash, the user's nerve endings and internal organs are subjected to an experience unlike the likes of any creature in your evolutionary chain, and if only for a transient moment, you experience the wonders which ephemeral technologies may provide.

A moment later you find yourself in another space in time.

Congratulations, your first full body Itta is finally complete.

* Prep time 7-8 seconds
* Minimum of 2 posts
* Number of Ittas: 2 max
* Maximum distance: 50 yards
* Stationary Pose

#### Level 2

You are now a seasoned practitioner of Itta and are now considered by many a master of the technique, though you yourself realize that you have a lot further to go.

Though the transposition of items take almost no thought at all, you are still pushing the boundaries on the transposition of yourself.

Only by first imagining the world is moving around you are you able to acquire the acquisition of a sense of stillness even in free fall or motion. Your mastery of Fuinjutsu and space time has improved drastically, you are likely considered a candidate for Kage for your skills in either of those disciplines alone. If your specialty is Fuinjutsu, you are now capable of leaving indelible markers on anything you touch, and if space time be your forte, you have the advantage of utilizing one more Itta.

It wont be long till you are ready for the next level.

* Prep time 2-3 seconds
* Minimum number of 2 posts
* Number of Ittas: 2 max
* Maximum distance: 100 yards
* Dynamic Stationary Pose

#### Level 3

You are likely renowned for your use of Itta, and have attained Kage levels of mastery over both Fuinjutsu and spacetime Ninjutsu. This broadband spectrum of control has now allotted greater freedom over the use of Itta. The suped up ruins of Itta no longer scar your flesh, either due to your robust conditioning or refined level of chakra control.

You've likely mastered many different poses or boiled down your bodily requirements to a single gesture, and you've also managed to reduce your prep time of the technique to one second while simultaneously increasing the range thereof.

This has greatly increased your utility Itta, as you begin to finally explore the techniques true potential.

* Prep time: 1 second
* 1 - 2 posts respectively
* Number of Ittas: 4-5 max
* Maximum distance: 100 yards
* Multi-stationary poses or uni static gesture

#### Tier 2 MAX

You are now most certainly an A class Fuinjutsu expert, and have attainted a level of understanding of Space Time ninjutsu that alludes the likes of even Kage. With a blink of an eye, you can transpose from one location to another with little effort. You have the nigh Titanic reserves to be able to utilize Itta multiple times without batting an eye, and the chakra control necessary to do so while maintaining minimal harm to yourself. You've memorized and mastered so many poses and uses for Itta that you can transport perfectly from any stable position. You likely no longer need to close your eyes: your understanding of the multitude of dimensions is so vast that you can face the void with both eyes open.
With this level of ability, hardly a hair on your head is lost in translation.

**Congratulations**,

*Enjoy your mastery of Itta*

* Prep time: less than .5 seconds
* 1 - 2 posts respectively
* Number of Ittas: 20+
* Omni stationary pose
* Maximum distance: 1-5 miles
	+ Can do this once before facing serious repercussions.

### Tier 3

You have achieved mythical status in either Fuinjutsu or space time alone. You are not able to reach this Tier through sheer training or experience: maybe perhaps some genetic proclivity or spiritual disposition towards multidimensional planes, or maybe a freakish inhuman level of intelligence that is its equivalent.

At this point, due to your absolute speed in enacting Itta, the bodily runes are rendered invisible to all but the eyes of the Sharingan, and at close distances, you've even transcended the need for a second marker, your mastery enabling the bending of space time required for the Translation through your prowess of Itta alone.

You've likely began experimenting with the technique as well, abusing the code behind its complex algorithms for purposes entirely unintended by the programmer, (unless you are the programmer) allotting you impressive freedom over many of its mechanics, while unjustly sporting the mammoth reserves and chakra control to support it all.

There are no limits, and you are at this point beginning to transcend the technique itself.

The training wheels are off and space and time is now yours to command.

*Itta across dimensions of space and time*
