Gouken Ryuu - Strong Fist Style

Character Use: Rock Lee, Might Guy
Rank: -

Gouken is fighting style utilized by Rock Lee and Might Guy. Because Lee has almost no Ninjutsu or Genjutsu skills, he has devoted his training to mastering Taijutsu. To that end he must deal significant damage to his opponent to be able to defeat them. The Gouken form focuses on injuring the body and breaking bones, dealing primary damage to the outer body. Attacks like Konoha Dai Senpuu, Konoha Gouriki Senpuu and Konoha Shoufuu fall into this category.

Juuken Ryuu - Gentle Fist Style

Character Use: Hyuuga Clan
Rank: -

Juuken is fighting style utilized by Hyuuga clan members, it is the strongest style of Konoha. The Byakugan has a penetrating ability to see the tenketsu, the internal chakra coils system 361 pressure points. The clan member can use their fingers or palms to emit chakra to flow into their opponents body's at these precise points. When the hand draws close enough to strke, the clan member can stop or increase their opponents chakra flow. The internal chakra coils which spread throughout the body also wrap around the internal chakra producing organs. So if the internal coils are attacked, it also damages these internal organs. Because a ninja can not train their internal body, such damage can be a critical hit for even a highly skilled ninja.

Kawazu Kumite - Frog Style Kata

Character Use: Fukasaku, Uzumaki Naruto
Rank: Unknown

To become a Toad Sennin, a user must go through several training stages. To begin, the user will learn how to draw in natural energy and convert it into Senjutsu chakra. This Senjutsu chakra can then be used in Taijutsu attacks by using Kawazu Kumite. This style takes advantage in the increase in power stemming from Senjutsu chakra, which grants the user more strength, speed and durability. This also grants the user greater reach, as the Senjutsu chakra from the natural energy will surround and extend from their body. So though the opponent may dodge, the invisible aura will extend the short distance to still strike them. A strike to the head from such a hit will prove fatal to most anyone who receives it.
