Revenge Counter

Name: Revenge Counter
Element: Yin
Rank: S
Specialty: Ninjutsu and Iryojutsu, OR Taijutsu and Iryojutsu, OR Bukijutsu and Iryojutsu
Particular Jutsu Type: N/A
Backstory: This ultimate version of the defensive line of techs that Guren created is what he deems as the pinnacle of the sorts. Through the perfection of Full Counter and Counter Vanish, Guren learned that one of the weaknesses of these techniques were their telegraphing motion. Additionally, he figured that the only thing missing from this technique was a surefire way to mitigate the user's own risk.

What it does:
Upon activation, this technique doesn't appear to do anything. There is no physical change to the user that could be discerned with the naked eye. Dojutsu with chakra vision will observe a slight, relatively feeble aura of colorless chakra surrounding the user's body. The aura expands 5 cm from the user at jutsu speed and persists for the duration of the jutsu or until this technique is canceled.

Once the user is subject to an instance of damage while this jutsu is active, Revenge Counter's effects will be triggered. The aura shielding the user will awaken and function as armor of Damage Reduction with its reserves equal to jutsu power. The damage reduced is simultaneously stored within the aura of chakra surrounding the user. The user is subject to any residual damage not reduced and stored in the aura of chakra. Should the DR reserves not be exhausted, the aura around the user will remain with the excess amount of DR until the end of the jutsu duration.

The absorbed damage is cultivated and converted into yin chakra, which the user infuses and mixes with their chakra. Once one instance of damage is mitigated via the DR, the offensive portion of this technique can be triggered by the user at any point for the duration of this technique. Via a rapid chakra expulsion (from ninjutsu), muscle flex (from taijutsu), or weapon movement (from bukijutsu), the converted chakra will violently reflect in all directions from the user in the form of a tornado. This tornado begins with dimensions of 50 meters in height, and 1 meter in diameter, centered on the user's body. Its destructive nature is harmless to the user, and as it is their chakra, they manipulate it to see clearly through it. Others, however, cannot see through this yin chakra tornado without a sensory technique that exceeds Revenge Counter's power (i.e., blocks Chakra Vision through Dojutsu such as the Byakugan). As quickly as the yin tornado is created, simultaneously, it expands until it reaches the jutsu range moving at a rate equal to jutsu speed. The tornado will sustain itself on the field for one post after it reaches max duration, after which it will dissipate entirely. Note that the tornado does not move with the caster, though the caster can move within the tornado without being subject to harm from the tornado. Finally, only one tornado can be expelled per jutsu usage.

The yin tornado itself is capable of clashing with anything, save for intangible techniques such as genjutsu. If it clashes with a target with a health stat (equipment, summon, character, etc.), then it will challenge that value against its power. If this jutsu wins that clash, it will obliterate whatever attempted to challenge it. If this jutsu draws or loses that clash, the technique will instead damage the target at jutsu power. When clashing against techniques and resulting in a draw, this clash will dispel this technique's tornado construct and the technique it clashed against—losing results in just this technique failing, dissolving, and being placed on cooldown. Winning allows the tornado to absorb the losing technique and convert it into kinetic yin chakra, which expands this jutsu's range. Guidelines for the range expansion are based on the rank of the inferior technique, meaning that E/D/C/B/A/S rank techniques that fail will add 1/3/5/10/15/20 meters to this technique's range. 

Finally, the tornado has a pulling effect that affects targets within 10 meters of itself. Targets with strength stats that are lesser than the power of this jutsu will find themselves being sucked into the tornado of the technique. Targets with strength stats that exceed this jutsu's effect, or utilize a technique that shrugs off harmful effects, will be immune to the pull from the tornado. The user can also make the technique harmless to their allies by manipulating the nature of the yin chakra, allowing its harmful effects and damage to bypass targets filtered by the user.
