As an action, you gather lightning into your hand; the high concentration of electricity produces a sound reminiscent of many birds chirping. Holding your hand out to point it, the beam shoots and forward at a terrifying speed. All creatures in range must succeed a Dexterity Saving Throw or take 5d8 + your Intelligence modifier lightning damage on a failure.
For every 3 chakra spent in this jutsu, the range increases by 40 feet.
