One of the five basic nature transformations, Fire Release (火遁) is almost always used offensively due to its destructive properties. It is naturally strong against Wind Release and weak to Water Release. When used collaboratively with Wind Release, Fire Release techniques can strategically be made more powerful.

Although it can easily be used for widespread destruction, Fire Release can be more finely channelled into weapons for certain techniques, change to take the form of ash clouds that linger in the air, and even be shaped into the form of contained shields or walls, burning away anything that attempts to cross it.

[attr="class","nintales-subtitle"]D-RANK FIRE RELEASE TECHNIQUES

[attr="class","nintales-body-2"]


(RANGE: SHORT // DURATION: 2 (unless dispelled prematurely) // CD: 3) The user creates a dome-shaped barrier of swirling embers around themselves or their allies close by, shielding against incoming basic projectiles such as shuriken or kunai while inflicting burns on those attempting to breach its boundaries.[break][break]


(RANGE: MED // DURATION: NA // CD: 2) The user exhales a breath of flame from their mouth in the shape of a stream, which can be employed in an arched trajectory. Despite being a basic and relatively simple, the fire produced can be combined with other techniques to devastating effects.[break][break]


(RANGE: SHORT // DURATION: NA // CD: 3) The user punches the ground, causing flames to erupt and explode around them. These flames can dig through the ground, providing an option for escape underground while creating a barrier against approaching enemies.

[attr="class","nintales-subtitle"]C-RANK FIRE RELEASE TECHNIQUES

[attr="class","nintales-body-2"]


(RANGE: MED // DURATION: 2 (unless dispelled) // CD: 4) The user spews fire from their mouth, trailing a ring around a target before shaping a portion of the fire in the form of a spider that proceeds to pounce on the enemy, attempting to trap them between two flames.[break][break]


(RANGE: MEDIUM // DURATION: NA // CD: 4) The user summons a barrage of arrows made of fire and sends them like a fusillade towards a target. These arrows explode upon impact even if they don’t hit their target, spreading their fire wherever they land and setting the environment ablaze.[break][break]


(RANGE: SHORT // DURATION: NA // CD: 3) The user coats their forearm in roaring flames before performing a straight palm thrust at a target or in the direction of a target, sending all the flames gathered in the direction of their attack in the form of a dense column of fire. The flames are powerful and have enough force behind them for this attack to reach some distance away.[break][break]


(RANGE: SHORT // DURATION: 2 (unless dispelled or extinguished) // CD: 4) The user stomps the ground, causing a wall of flames to burst forth and shoot upwards— creating a barrier between the user and their opponent. The roaring flames visually obscure the user from view, protects them from further melee assaults, and interrupts projectiles, weakening or turning them into ash outright.[break][break]


(RANGE: MED // DURATION: NA // CD: 4) The user summons myriad floating fireballs around themselves which, after a short period of time, eventually transform to take the shape of floating ghost heads which proceed to hunt down and attack opponents in swarms. Each ‘head’ expands into a huge flame at the moment of impact. If they cannot find a target, they can be commanded to simply explode into flame, indiscriminately engulfing anything in their surroundings.[break][break]


(RANGE: MED // DURATION: NA // CD: 4) Signature technique of the Uchiha Clan. The user kneads chakra in their body into fire, which they expel from their mouth. The more chakra they use, the more flames are produced. They take the form of a giant orb until hitting a target, vaporizing its surroundings and causing extensive burns.

(RANGE: LONG // DURATION: 3 (unless destroyed) // CD: 5) The user summons several long, whip-like chains crafted from searing flames to be controlled individually or all at once. So long as they are not dispelled or destroyed, these extremely versatile chains can be used in melee combat, sent to attempt to restrain and burn targets, or however the user sees fit until they eventually disperse.[break][break]


(RANGE: LONG // DURATION: NA // CD: 5) Summons a pillar of fire that splits into an eight-headed serpent made of flames. They converge on a single or multiple targets, bombarding them relentlessly. Upon impact, each serpent head explodes into a well of flame, incinerating any prey caught to ash.[break][break]


(RANGE: LONG // DURATION: NA // CD: 5) Chakra kneaded inside the body is converted into fire and expelled from the mouth in a literal sea of flames, which sweeps across a wide area in front of the user indiscriminately. This technique is incredibly difficult to avoid or contain, and requires very powerful or combined Water Release techniques to extinguish.

[attr="class","nintales-subtitle"]A-RANK FIRE RELEASE TECHNIQUES

[attr="class","nintales-body"]


(RANGE: SHORT // DURATION: NA // CD: ONCE PER THREAD) The user concentrates fire chakra in their fist, channeling it towards the smallest point possible and drastically increasing the volatility of the chakra before punching a target. On impact, a firestorm from their fist ignites their opponent, engulfing them in an explosion of both fire and force so focused that it can reduce a regular human to ash instantaneously. Those who are not immediately disintegrated are sent flying a significant distance away. Although its destruction is focused to a point, the heat from the flames of this technique burn so hot that it melts its surroundings when the fire is released.
