    I'll point out that I've purposefully worded my vote as something I think an academy student would know about. The vote isn't the most accurate because I took into account that, as a merely a student, Mio wouldn't know about the deeper intricacy of Nature Transformation. Likewise, I singled out Suiton and Doton because these two elements are the most obvious when it come to external chakra manipulation, so they're the one that even an ignorant civilian would think about first if they were asked about "manipulating an element".

    Hey... i just had a terrible (wonderful) thought. If we manage this before Naruto gets highjacked into a team we might get to make a Yin-Yang creation combination technique by accident by taunting Naruto with a attention grabbing method he doesn't have. He'll naturally try to reproduce it with huge amounts of physical energy right then and there...

    And possibly die. Or explode.
    Yes, those are separate possibilities.

    But armour only protects against things coming from outside. Exploding with it on would just produce plot shrapnel.

    We'll just have to steal it. Like Aizen in that one comedy fanfic, after which he repurposed his quirky miniboss squad to being 'heroic protagonists'.

    "Can't it?" you ask. "This is a Jounin we're talking about, here."

    "It doesn't matter if we were talking about the Hokage." Saki insists. "It doesn't matter what your rank is, chakra works the way it works. It's a fundamental force, like gravity. That's like saying that fire can be wet if you're a Jounin."

    You cross your arms.

    "No. Do not. Try to make wet fire." Saki says, sternly. "You'll kill yourself and maybe make steam."

    "Mhm?" you say, obstinately. "Then you're saying that just because we know how to do a lot of things, we shouldn't try to work out ways to learn how to do more? Besides, what about elemental techniques..."

    "You don't throw chakra out and then try to make it into a technique afterward." Saki stresses, then leans back and sighs. "You make the Jutsu first, and then you let the chakra go. That's how it works, it's even usually in the names... like your clan's favorite coming of age jutsu. You release fire-natured chakra that is shaped into a great fireball."

    ... You scowl, not really wanting to discuss the traditions of the Uchiha clan.

    Still, what you've learned...

    "He's definitely venting chakra for something, though." you point out.

    "I said it looked like he might be doing it deliberately, but I wasn't sure." Saki objects. "That sort of thing is what some debilitating poisons do, limiting the ability of enemy ninja! Doing it to yourself would be counterproductive..."

    Yeah, yeah, you've stopped listening.

    ---

    [ ] If he's doing it, it's possible. To vent a lot of your chakra out and then do stuff with it afterward, you mean. And you're going to try.
    [ ] If you have to do stuff first, but Gai isn't doing anything that can be called a jutsu... maybe he does most of the genjutsu in advance, and then lets it seep out a bit at a time?
    [ ] ??

    [X] If he's doing it, it's possible. To vent a lot of your chakra out and then do stuff with it afterward, you mean. And you're going to try.
    -[X] So what if you don't get results right off the bat? You're not a jounin (yet). If it's hard, that proooobably just means you need to balance your chakras more - so obviously that means upping your athleticism to get more Physical chakra. 'Sides, the guy you're trying to copy kind of has to be more Physical-chakra-leaning than you, right? Right.
    --[X] Oh look at that, the thing you'll be doing to facilitate experimenting with Gai's trick is the sort of stuff Guy loves to both do and encourage; clearly the fact that you'll have more chances to watch his bullshit in action and puzzle out secrets is because, as THE GREAT DEVIL QUEEN, you are wise beyond your years no matter what you set out to do.

    The meta considerations as to what is true in-quest regarding chakra mechanics are irrelevant to me; GREAT DEVIL QUEEN MIO, in character, is far too headstrong and arrogant to not think this, I feel.

    Maybe it has nothing to do with the genjutsu and itsa form of training? If so tryng to imitate it could be dangerous. Gai did it infront of a shortshigted Hyuga so he has to know Mio will try...

    Here's an interesting thought - what if, when Gai started training Lee, it was because he saw himself in the boy? As in, more of himself than we think. What if the venting of chakra is not a self-induced handicap?

    I feel kind of bad for her. She has all the mental drawbacks of being a jounin with none of the benefits.

    It kind of makes me cringe because I both simultaneously get and don't get characters like her. I'd be a puddle of depression barely flopping from day to day in her position.
