Wind Release: Azure Step

By utilizing one's ability to enhance the capabilities of the using, a Shinja can manipulate the air about their feet and produce a powerful burst of pressure. This pressure dramatically boosts one's overall jumping capabilities and in the right hands can allow one to leap over tall buildings in a single bound, reposition themselves in mid-air, or even hover for short periods of time; all these assist in granting an extreme tactical advantage over an opponent. Like most, this technique's effect is directly proportional to the chakra commited.

A variant of this technique devised and applied by Zecht Shinja revolves around releasing an intense burst of pressure from their feet within an enclosed space. Depending upon the situation, this release can either be strong enough and swift enough to shatter the foundations of said enclosed space, or jettison the user through the ceiling if he is standing vertically, with the latter often resulting in minor injuries.
