Water Release: Mist Layering Technique

The Water Release: Mist Layering Technique (水遁・霧層化術, Suiton: Kiri Souka Jutsu) is a high class contact-type perception ninjutsu. This technique allows the caster to manipulate existing forms of mist or create one by the manipulation of existing bodies of water. Once the mist springs forth the person casting the technique is not only removed from sight but their chakra signature disappears entirely, leaving no trace of them as if they were never there to begin with. However this does not mean the user cannot sense the opponent instead it is quite the opposite although the foe cannot see the caster, the caster could not see them more clearly, with everything trapped within the confines of the mist being carefully read, easily matching the reading rate of such visual prowess, such as the exalted Sharingan.

For this reason it is the preferred method of assassination by first completely removing themselves from view, furthering the effect by effect by removing their presence by 'blending in with the mist', the second step being locating the enemy without being spotted, as the only thing that may give them away is the sound produced from their footsteps, then the last being the execution of the enemy, therefore completing the jutsu.
