Once launched, the tendencies of Monsoon Release take over. Characterized by impressive speed, such that the energy can cross a distance of several yards in the blink of an eye, the ninjutsu possesses a high degree of piercing and cutting power. For example, a full-fledged burst launched at the hands of a novice practitioner can easily punch through the trunk of an average-sized tree; whilst one produced by a master of the ninjutsu can punch through several trees. What's more, if enough practice is put forth in utilizing the art, an individual will be able to control the flight path of the ninjutsu simply through sight. However, a novice user will simply be capable of rudimentary "fire and forget" tactics until such time as the aforementioned skill is achieved.
