Lightning Release Slash

After making the needed hand signal, the user channels lightning nature chakra into the weapon of their choice until it blows bright blue and releases bolts of electric energy. The user slash towards the opponent and the chakra is released all at once as a fast-moving arc of energy. The attack is highly volatile, capable of cutting into the opponent and tearing through most armor. Upon contact, powerful static charges race into the target's nervous system and causes widespread nerve damage and paralysis over a large part of the body. Due to the electric nature of the attack, it can slice into metallic weapons and defenses, rendering them useless. Even if the attack misses, if the target is close enough, electric bolts from the jutsu will zone in on target as a conductor of electicity. The electric pulses can also damage and stun the target, though at a lesser extent than the entire attack and will not pierce them. This shock is still excellent to use in staging a further assault.

The largest weakness of this attack is the chakra needed to execute the attack efficiently and the time needed to channel the needed chakra. While channelling chakra takes focus, the user can still attack and defend as they build up chakra. However, upon unleashing the attack, the user will suffer increased fatigue as well as slight numbness to their arms.
