VE?

That said, it can only wait because I'm not sure Hazou's good enough to fuck around with them, and I'm not sure Jiraiya's capable of judging that -- Kagome could, but J-man hasn't known Hazou's sealing style for long enough.
J-man doesn't have to, just reread what Hazou said: "I wanna mess around with Force Walls..."
 
So here's a question @eaglejarl @Velorien @OliWhail Can we ask Jiraiya after variants of seals? For instance, a non-sharp variant of Force Wall would be more ideal as a base for an absolute defense technique.

e: This is a "can" question as in like, is it super spoon heavy on you guys to do so, for reference.

Just for reference, I've been avoiding suggesting seals that attack via chemical mechanisms (poisons/acids/bases/flammables/etc) because I was worried that having molecular products that are partially chakra-construct would lead to horrible ion clouds when the chakra-constructs dissipate. But I never actually checked that that's how you would play things. So what has Hazou been taught on the matter? Any horror stories about why you don't make acid-spray seals?

something something Arikada something something bioseal acid worms
 
Clearly we need to get to Sealing 1000 and seal one in ourselves.

Frankly it's the most minmax way to increase our chakra reserves.

But only if the bijuu joins the hive mind since he literally lives inside Hazo. He'd be a real character on forums and all he would do is shit post and vote for the dumbest plans.

Do we know of any seals that actually create chakra-construct matter?

I'd also like to point out that your observation isn't specific to seals. A technique that creates chakra-construct acid would run into the exact same problem.
 
Maybe we could make some sort of anti-fire storage seal? Like the thing Jiraiya used to seal Amaterasu in canon.
 
Even then, Noburi would have said something if the strategy was not feasible or he really, really fudged his TN roll. I know this goes against the simulation aspect of the quest but I don't know how else to solve this without a retcon except by just handwaving it and saying the Tipserator is potent enough to get people drunk.
I haven't spoke to @Velorien about this, but if I were in his shoes, what I would do is:

"Noburi has no idea. He's never heard of anyone breathing booze. Seems like it might work, so he'll take his best guess on concentrations, but it's purely a guess. Oh, look, it had no appreciable effect. Wonder if it was just that the concentration was too low or what? Well, have to experiment if we want to use this again in the future."

Saying it another way: Everyone in this thread (very specifically including me!) has had full access to the internet and modern medical journals and all of us said "Yeah, sure, seems plausible." If we thought it was feasible and turned out to be wrong, why wouldn't the kids?


You know, given that Henge and non-Henge are different beings, wouldn't we be able to gain immunity to ingested poisons by only eating them under Henge, and then dispelling the Henge to remove the poisoned foodstuff? Or does Henge not work that way?
It's long-established that you can still get poisoned, drunk, etc if you're henged. Why/how? Because chakra, that's why.

I actually have a reasonable question that won't cause headaches, for a change. @eaglejarl @Velorien @OliWhail how much is widely known about the Big Fight? Obviously Hiruzen is dead and Yagura is presumed dead, but are any of the circumstances public? What about the more in-the-know people, do the Leaf clan heirs know what happened to Naruto? I know that some of this will be HDK, but I'd also expect Jiraiya to have briefed the kids on what they're allowed to discuss with their peers.
I'm not sure. I'll talk to the others about it and get back to you.


So here's a question @eaglejarl @Velorien @OliWhail Can we ask Jiraiya after variants of seals? For instance, a non-sharp variant of Force Wall would be more ideal as a base for an absolute defense technique.

What are you looking for? Is that "Hey, Jiraiya, do you have such a thing already?" or is it "Hey, Jiraiya, does this seem like a feasible thing for us to work on?"

The one time it came up was back in chapter 67. Hazō has been focused on other things since then.



By the way, this is an older item but I wasn't sure if it ever got confirmed and wanted to make sure it was nailed down:
If we are DQ'd are we still able to take points away from other contestants (e.g., by correctly guessing that they are ninja/their secret identity)?
I'd expect that if you're DQ'd, you don't get to submit a ballot at the end, which would mean you couldn't do it directly. (This is NOT a ruling, but it's what I'd vote for at the moment. Am kind of doing a flyby of the thread and QM chat.)
@Velorien and I both signed off on @OliWhail's response.
 
Even if we're disqualified, we could still focus on gather info on people, and just be really generous with sharing it.
 
You mean this?

And you can't just make up a seal, you need to research it carefully. If you tried just plugging things together you could try to make a storage seal and end up making something that threw yellow acid everywhere."

Hazou cocked his head in interest. "Yellow acid? That actually sounds pretty cool. Maybe—"

"No!" Kagome snapped. "No trying to deliberately reproduce things that were disasters in the first place!"

"But—"

"No! Who's the sensei here, huh? Huh? Me, that's who!" He found himself echoing Ishikana-sensei without meaning to and remembered a moment too late that he had never been satisfied with Ishikana-sensei's argument from authority. Best to hurry on to the next option and hope that the kid didn't try to circle back to this. Pfah! Modular sealing indeed! The concept was ridiculous!

Let's see, what was next...oh. Hm.

I took that as "don't try to replicate sealing failures" more than "don't try to create acid". Was it intended as the latter?
 
Eh, I'm pretty sure the results are going to be better than what we originally got. Only way they could really be worse is if Noburi crit-fails really badly and the mixture is flammable. But I think that would have to be a really bad fail, as he'd presumably be extra careful about it.

If the Tipserator simply doesn't work, I, for one, will be relieved.

I don't thibk
We have ways to disable eyesights such as pepper spray.

But that's different from an attack that works THROUGH people's eyesight rather than just affecting it

How it works matters less than its effect.

Prepper spray. Dude's sight is disabled.

Flashbang. Dude's sight and hearing is disabled.

I would argue that strobes are harder to avoid than pepper bombs. Hazou-holding-a-strobe is horribly painful to look at, so you basically can't aim at him.

Strobe also disable Hazō's sight.

Yes it does. 1/5th (at least) of the ninjas were gonna face are going to have access to Wind Jutsu, which will be able to counter pepper spray (and maybe even use it to counter-attack us with the jutsu+pepper spray) a strobe can't be blocked by wind jutsu
