GANBARE NETSUBOU

[davy1]

PERSONAL

Name: Ganbare Netsubou

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Date of Birth: May 15th

Relative: Senobi - Deceased - Father; Itari - Deceased - Mother

Personality: Ganbare takes a very simple stance on life, in that missions, training, relationships and dreams are his life and he intends to keep it that way. Most people think he is stupid or idiotic due to the state of affairs and how close war could be declared but he just explains that he "hates things that take too much thought". Though he isn't the smartest person, he isn't a fool and is capable of telling right from wrong. When training or in combat he is the most driven taking a simple yet firm and determined stance on what his role is and fighting with all his might to fulfill said role.

Usually he can be happy-go-lucky and not so interested in things that don't peak his interests usually shrugging them off. Due to how much he was messed with and talked about when younger he doesn't like most people, wishing to do what is placed in front of him to do and surpass their expectations by succeeding through his methods. He gets angry when innocent people or his friends are placed in dangerous situations and believes that "when someone hurts my friend, I kick their ass" in a nutshell. Towards this stand, he doesn't care if it's animals or women and will "kick" them.

Despite his simple nature, he is a genius when it comes to martial arts and is capable of multitude of feats showcasing said abilities and also displaying great knowledge on the subject. He follows his training to the letter and doesn't let anything but the most important situations overtake his training. After said training he usually sleeps in or rests unless he has another mission. He isn't one to scream or yell at people, and is actually quite soft-spoken usually having just a bit of a smile or a normal look on his face even while mad. He is rarely surprised at anything seeing life as very "random like that".

He is quite frugal wishing to keep what he buys to a very easy to manage state such as various fruits and lean meats as well as easy to wear and inexpensive clothing that won't be destroyed easily in training or fighting. He is shy around crowds of people, and can't sing yet he can dance very well due to his skill at footwork and technique. He is a tech-bane, incapable of using modern technology and usually breaking it whenever he gets his hands on on something technologically advanced.

APPEARANCE

TACTICAL

Rank: Chunin

Affiliation: Kumo; Alive

Element: Katon

Abilities:
Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant - Ganbare is capable of great skill in unarmed combat as it is his main style of battle with his own martial style called "Mighty Steel Leg". Mostly self-taught through training and experience he has gained a great deal of knowledge in battle using it and has even created a fighting style using his legs to their fullest potential. With said fighting style he is capable of changing direction with his legs, shifting his attacking speed to confuse opponents by way of tempo and capable of attacking specific points of an opponents body with a great deal of flexibility.

He has the capability of using a style reminiscent of break-dancing; and with his arms uses them for parrying and immobilizing an opponent while attacking with his feet. Through experience and training he can also disarm weapon-using opponents with just his legs and feet.

Enhanced Strength - His physical strength is very impressive, especially within his legs. Capable of massive kicks that defy logic sending opponents sprawling away when he places enough force behind them. He can easily smash through wood and rock in one kick and is also capable of denting steel. His legs enable him to leap massive velocities, without making a running start. Though not as powerful as his legs, his arms have exceptional strength in them, as he uses them to defend against strong opponents and to perform handstands and freezes (terms from break-dance) with which he is capable of staying on them for prolonged periods of time. He can also easily pick up grown men with his bare-hands holding them by the shirt or neck, and his feet are capable of holding a fully grown person on them in standing position without dropping form and even launch them away.

Enhanced Speed & Reflexes - Ganbare is capable of feats of high-speed movement and quickened reflexes due to his martial training and combat experience allowing him great survival instincts to dodge attacks without knowing they are there or perceiving the enemy, he can catch thrown kunai and senbon in mid-air. Due to his superhuman leg strength he is capable of traversing large areas within a short amount of time. His hands are fast enough to intercept and parry attacks from unarmed and weapon-users. His legs can kick at incredible speeds making even a combination of kicks difficult to see clearly for other taijutsu specialists.

Enhanced Agility & Dexterity - Ganbare is capable of great feats of quickness and agility allowing him to move with great fluidity and technical expertise. He is capable of feats such as round-offs, splitting (he can perform a complete split even while standing) and various flips and ground/air somersaults in order to dodge or keep up with his opponents or just to show-off some of his skills. His legs also have great flexibility being capable of kicking at multiple diverse angles to attack an opponent.

Enhanced Durability & Endurance - He is capable of fighting for incredibly long periods of time and training himself for days on end without sleeping. His endurance is greater than that of a normal shinobi, but is considered his lowest point in combat because his abilities focus on strength and speed rather than durability, and even with his willpower the body still has its own limitations.

Eight Gates User - Ganbare is a user of the eight gates, and is capable of only opening four gates. The reason why he does this is because he is training in order to sustain the gates in order to use them to their fullest potential rather than learn them for short bursts of power allowing him to bring out his potential for longer quantities of time. This means Ganbare goes through harsh training in order to keep his limits going for longer than your normal gate users, allowing him to fight with his elevated limits and combat against opponents for much longer while in said gates.

As with any Celestial Gate User, his abilities skyrocket higher for every gate he uses thanks to releasing his limits. For this reason, he only uses them against opponents who he wouldn't be able to defeat with his natural limits.

Fighting Style: Mighty Steel Leg - A powerful and versatile leg-based martial arts using kicks as its main basis of attacking. Created by Ganbare in order to not follow directly into his father's footsteps (he uses punching and his upper body) he decides to create it though had no idea what he was doing at first. After training and reading books on how to kick properly he began to train it. He learned different methods of training by his sensei and developed them to hone his abilities to their limits to unlock more strength. With this, he developed his own fighting style with dynamic kicking techniques and used his hands to block and parry attacks as well as recently took up to using his hands to use dance movements (by way of break-dancing) to capture opponents and attack them with destructive force and incredible speed. He doesn't "name" his attacks and just uses his kicking skills to the limit.

His parents died while he was young, the young taijutsu expert barely knew much about him that he asked his teachers and sensei who actually did. Having the same affliction as his father, who could not mold chakra to be used outside his body, he was at a loss as a young male. At first told to give up thanks to his weakness, he had found a diary of his mother who had talked about how "great" his father was and how he'd became a ninja based on his convictions rather than fallen through the cracks as a weakling. Thanks to this, Ganbare had learned of why he had his name and why he shouldn't give up if mostly because his mother.

Times were tough for him, he had to go through a phase of ridicule thanks to his lack of skill in both ninjutsu and genjutsu and instead had to try for taijutsu which he also wasn't very good at. His mothers words from the diary had led him though, training him to become something more than himself and leading him to continue training despite his weakness. This would lead him to becoming a stronger than normal student in form and body after learning the basic forms of taijutsu from teachers such as how to utilize decent punches and kicks.

Growing older, the young genin would pass based on his skill in taijutsu to see if he could be a full-fledged ninja. Thanks to most of the ridicule he had gained a temper towards his classmates though, making him hot-headed and angry both about his parents and due to his weakness as an individual. Luckily, he would be placed into a team of taijutsu specialists leading him to train with a prominent and skillful teacher who saw his hot-headed nature as a man bursting with spirit and conviction thus leading him to take on the toughest challenges, due to his teacher being female. It got weird many times, as he'd made her angry much of their first year together.

Missions were difficult, and a training regimen of weights and running would develop his body to be fit and strong. He showed a strong willingness to gain said strength in said battles, and whatever challenge came before him he'd taken seriously and placed his entire heart into even if meaningless. This had led his teacher to say that she thought this was his special talent, both thanks to his name and his convictions through challenges.

He gained his knack for understanding fighting by fighting and training, but soon this wouldn't be enough as their was only so much that he could learn by fighting in battles without proper training. Or so his teacher thought, but he wouldn't let her train him in such a way, trying to show her that he would gain his own way of fighting by his own skills and abilities. She would retort that he would need more than just determination to fight ninja and would begin teaching him a way to gain strength in a short amount of time, a la the "Eight Gates". As for the training, instead of teaching him, she had instead started to constantly spar with him in battle daily.

One year had passed, Ganbare had gained much from all the training even though he'd never hit her once during their fights she'd commented on the progress he made through getting closer and closer to her and reacting to her techniques and taking her attacks. A growth in muscles and spirit had come through though he didn't open the gates his physical parameters increased further. She had also decided that after this year, the team was ready for the chunin exams. To train for these exams (they would be in the next six months after the first) Ganbare would be given four weights on his arms and legs to train until then while also still sparring her (in order to somehow garner the gates).

The chunin exams had arrived and he still didn't gain the gates he had developed techniques for himself in relation to combat in order to catch her. He had also developed his fighting skills to waste no movement and to adapt in combat. To say he was ready in the chunin exams was an understatement as he was rearing to go, outclassing the entirety of his competition with his speed and destructive power both at high levels for his ranking. However, his last opponent was exceptionally powerful opponent who couldn't be beaten by normal means, through this he had finally tapped into his full strength while he was at his lowest point, and entered the first gate of Hachimon to beat him. He was rewarded chunin at age fourteen, two weeks after his birthday.

Two years later after making chunin, he'd of course gotten stronger and become one of the strongest chunin in his village fulfilling the promise to himself to become a true ninja. He'd made rivalries, developed friendships and had mellowed from being a hot headed moron, to a calm and understanding young male. He'd developed his skills as a user of the Hachimon too, but also began to want to create a style all his own between the two years.
