Name: Steaming Danger Tyranny
Rank: S-Rank
Type: Ninjutsu
Used For: Offensive
Element: Suiton
Range: Clan can travel 60 meters away from the user
Duration: Until clone is stopped or justu is cancelled
Hand Seals/Charge up: Snake-horse-tiger
Description: One of the most dangerous techniques of the clan, that shows off how lethal and creative their abilities are. The user will form a clone from the pil and water in their body that looks like a chibi version of themselves. The water in the clone is surrounded by a thin layer of oil and due to this structure, the clone's temperature can easily be altered from cold to hot and vice-versa. When it exerts itself, the outer layer of oil heats up and evaporates the water inside. As the internal pressure builds, the clone expands until it violently explodes and the water vapor is released resulting in a 25 meter explosion with S rank force, capable of melting gold or the skin off a person, killing them instantly. This vapor then cools down as it rises and as a result, turns into hail that can cause blunt force trauma to all nearby while at the same time cooling the clone, causing it to shrink to its original size and start the entire process again. Despite its constantly increasing size, the clone itself remains very fast throughout the technique, enough to elude even Gaara's chakra-infused sand, moving at taijustu master speeds. This high-speed movement also allows it to heat up very quickly and to more easily inflict damage as the clone can form weapons from any point of its body, such as swords or axes that have a cutting force of S rank. However, using this powerful technique leaves the user in a severely weakened and vulnerable state, only able to a maximum of B rank techniques while this clone is in effect, and move at taijustu adept speeds.
Clan History: The Hozuki clan dates back to the times of clan vs clan warfare. The clan was incredibly powerful in this time, holding much of the land and islands that make up the land of water. The Hozuki were feared for their prowess in suiton based justu and their natural savageness that was only topped by that of their neighbors the Kaguya. Some compared them even to that of the senju and uchiha in terms of strength, able to form giant combat avatars out of suiton, similar to the ones used by the Hashirama senju and the uchiha. The Hozuki clan wound continue to be in control of most of the land in the land of water until the time of villages came about. Clans located near the Hozuki heard tale of the village formed by the uchiha and senju, and followed suit, unifying together to create a village. The Hozuki clan were against this, and feared they would lost much of the power they had, so they began to fight against the unified clans. Unfortunately, the Hozuki were no match for the sheer numbers of the unified villages despite their power and lost many members in a bloody war before surrendering and joining the unified clans in what would now become known as the Village Hidden in the Mist.
Though the Hozuki joined the Hidden Mist, they refused to become apart of the community, and kept to themselves in a district in the village specifically made for them. They would continue this self isolation, until one member came that would change the fate of the clan and the village forever, this member would come to be known as the 2nd Mizukage. The 2nd Mizukage was unlike any other Hozuki in the fact that he did not value brute savageness or power, he was a man of strategy and creativity. He inspired the clan members with his fighting style, defeating the old Hozuki leader and taking over the clan easily. He lead the clan out of their isolation and joined them with the rest of the village, working out relations with both sides for many months, until the two were unified. Thanks to the unification of the Hozuki and village, the Hidden Mist doubled in Power and became known as one of the five great villages. The Hozuki leader would be named the 2nd Mizukage for his work, and would lead the village into an incredible era of evolution and strength that would continue until his death. Over the years after the 2nd Mizukage's death the mist became known as the bloody mist for its savage practices, and some members did not agree with them, feeling like these practices completely destroyed everything the 2nd had worked for in his time. These members left the village, and scattered across the globe, leading to the Hozuki clan members being found in many different locations even today.

- Because of their more liquid like bodies, Hozuki clan members can hold more chakra within themselves giving them enhanced chakra pools which gives them the maximum amount of chakra for their rank.
Hozuki members are master of all water ninjustu, dating back to the times of clan vs clan warfare, there are few water ninjustu that a clan member won't have trouble learning or using, because of this it costs half the ryo/word count for a hozuki clan member to learn water ninjustu that are up to their rank up, note that this does not count towards forbidden justu.
Hozuki are beings that are one with water their whole lives, even at birth, because of this all Hozuki members must have suiton as their primary element, but all suiton used by the member has its combative abilities increased by 1 rank.
Because of the oil in their bodies, Hozuki are surprisingly skilled with katon ninjustu, able to add oil to the justu in order to increase its combative abilities by 1 rank.
Being made of water, Hozuki clan members have no problem breathing underwater or moving, in fact while in water Hozuki clan members are more agile and swift increasing their rank when dealing with speed by 1.

- forbidden technique of the clan:
Name: Water Release: Demon Fish
Rank: Forbidden technique
Type: Ninjutsu
Used For: All
Element: Suiton
Range: supplementary, user can incrase their size to that of even a bijuu
Duration: Upkeep
Hand Seals/Charge up: None instead needs a large body of water
Description: One of the most ancient and powerful techniques of the clan. The user melds their water body with a large body of water and then forms it into form they desire, most of the time taking the form of a giant wave that looks like a demon-like fish. This was used in the old times of clan vs clan warfare to contend with the huge giant entities the senju and uchiha controlled, as well as battle bijuu. This is a justu with incredible offensive power, a person in this form holds more strength than that of a bijuu able to push them back easily, and destroy giant structures in seconds. They are also able to form water justu at half the chakra cost, and increase the combative capabilities by 1 rank. The water that surrounds the user is chakra enhanced giving the user a passive A rank shield of water at all times, making it so only s rank techniques can damage them, though if hit by one, such as a tailed beast ball, it will do a large amount of damage. A user in this form is immune to all physical attacks as well suiton justu and doton justu, katon will also have no effect on the user, and thanks to the oil that covers a hozuki member, the katon will surround them like an armor and give them a burning affect with they touch things, capable of creating third degree burns thanks to the chakra enhanced oil. If a user is covered in this oil fuuton will have no effect as well and only lead to strengthening the flames. Raiton techniques will have a plus one effectiveness against the user while in this form.
