Shattering Rock Style Martial Arts

Introduction
Shattering Rock Style Martial Arts is a Murican Martial art created by The Great Martial Artist in its early days. The style was later moved throughout the seas. The style of martial art itself focuses on making ones body as hard as stone and striking their opponents with powerful blows. The styles saying goes, be as immovable as the mountain and strike with the force of a avalanche.

Shattering Rock Formation
In order to become proficient in the style of Shattering Rock the users of the style must go though serious training were their body is put to the test and altered though extreme physical stress. This process is called Shattering Rock Formation and it was not created by The Great Martial Artist. The Formation was added in later by another Marital Artist only a hundred years ago. The add on itself was inspired by the Angelic Fist Formation when the man visited the royal court. If those maiden could augment their bodies to become better fighters than he, who was a man, should be able to do it as well.

The entire modification process takes about five years to complete. It can be done quicker, but the user runs the risk of missing out on distinct advantages the Formation gives. Like the Angelic Fist Formation the Shattering Rock Formation has a outside element needed to complete the training. That element in this case would be a special brand of tea that is suppose to be consumed every day. That Tea is called Guardian Lion Tea. It is a mixture of seven secrete tea leaves. One of those leaves is the fable IQ plant.

Once the user fist starts to learn the style they are blindfolded so that they can not see the outside world. This process of taking away the trainee sight is necessary for them to develop the battle senses they will need later in a fight. The student however has to go without using his eyes for months at a time. When a student is unable to see they are shown the marital arts moves by the master though touch. The master insures that they perform every move properly and with perfect form. During there training the student is also plumbed with rocks at random times during the training. This portion of the training works on there danger sense and allows the martial artist to sense danger once the bandages are removed.

While training the marital artist is placed under great meditation. This meditation is designed to awaken the users haki abilities. Rather than to see the future the martial artist learns to combine there Haki with there instincts. The Martial artist can sense when a move will hit and when one will miss. They can feel danger and see the strike zone of massive attacks. They can also see the weak points in objects. Though this skill is due to a combination of superior hearing, touch, smell, and haki.

Users of this style have both destructive power and superb defense. The user of this style are as strong as a castle and can deliver blows like a battering ram. The user of this style can harden certain areas on there body causing them to become harder than diamond. The areas of focus are the Chest, Knuckles, and the elbows.
