Hachiro would continue his training, pulling a scroll from his own person rather than the cubby. 'brother's personally written scroll on one of his sword styles... he gripped it tightly as he focused himself on his next training task. "Innocence Rain" it was called, a technique that allowed its user to amplify their speed.
Hachiro placed the scroll back in his satchel. He inhaled deeply, holding his sword in both hands. Doing so, he concentrated chakra into the soles of his feet. It was a similar sensation to channeling chakra to your feet for the water walking technique. As he did so, chakra flooded his feet, causing lightning to flicker about his feet.
The lightning would quickly give birth to the intended side effect of the jutsu. A fine static mist began to form around him, clouding the vision of anyone who might see Hachiro's movements. Now that the young Hirohiko had the techniques workings down, he would need to put them to work.
Hachiro began a full sprint around the Dojo. At first he began at a normal pace. Soon after his first half lap his technique took effect, clouding the perimeter of the dojo in the lightning mist. His speed doubled as he bolted about the mist. Thanks to his bloodline, the mist was illuminated brightly, blinding all that looked upon it.
Dashing onward, his form became a blur. Hachiro was now as fast as any Chuunin that stood in his path. He would use this speed to couple with his sword skills to leap from wall to wall. If he used this as he did when he fought Genesis, he would soon be a lethal force indeed... not that Hachiro was set on lethality. Still. His speed made him a mighty adversary. He felt the gap between his brother and he closing rapidly by the day.
As the technique began to reach its limit, Hachiro would practice it in combination with others. He raised his sword as though he was performing the ryutsuisen technique. Landing on the ceiling with both feet, he propelled himself downward. As he descended, he slashed downward, stopping in a kneeling position with his blade inches above the ground. As he calmed himself. The static field dissipated and the brightness of the room dimmed. [Innocent Rain Learned[B Rank ]]
In a similar manner to his last technique. The scroll he had just read involving the innocent rain described another technique that would increase his speed. It was not meant for prolonged usage like his prior technique but it was certainly something suited for his quick acrobatic leaps.
Hachiro read on that it was used specifically in linear direction burst attacks. The young genin would begin practicing again. As he channeled his chakra into his feet once more he took off yet again. More practical use of this spectacular technique that would augment his speed was necessary.
With his chakra being channeled into his feet the explosive power filled him. With yet another leap, he took off. The speed didn't seem as spectacular as before but it still sent him flying. No mist this time. Perhaps. He leapt to the nearest wall of the Dojo. Mimicking his fight with Genesis this time. His feet quickly made their way to the wall, planting firmly.
As they did he imagined his for standing the the center of the Dojo. His target would be cut down as he exploded away from the wall. His blade like lightning as it blasted out of its sheathe, halving the imaginary target.
Using the next burst, he took off from the location of the would be target. His next motion would be the right corner of the ceiling. As he landed his feet divided between the two halves of the wall and ceiling. His blast off following that one would send him to the far left wall where is next opponent would supposedly be.
As he landed, he brought his blade to his right side. Standing at a half stance for the instant he landed, he would strike out. His blade slashed horizontally, just missing the wall but directing his would be target once more. He inhaled deeply then exhaled as he would use the burst skill to get back to the middle of the Dojo, coming to a stand still after several minutes of fast rapid attacks. [ Fiendish Rain Speed Learned [ B Rank ]
Hachiro panted as he seemed to be rapidly expending his stamina reserves. He pulled a canteen from his bag and drank deeply from the water source. With a long gasp for air, he wiped his mouth. Allowing himself to drop into a seated, cross legged position, he fell into a rested position.
As he sat in a rested position, he inhaled deeply, slowly exhaling. As his breathing calmed so did his sense of awareness. Each coming breath brought a higher sense of perception in the Dojo. The others to and fro motions of training. Something brought more to light than anything else. The intense hostile aura bursting from the place.
It wasn't a specific direction this precognition stemmed from. It was a sense that a powerful intent to kill permeated from the the entire Dojo. It was their intended practice. Superior focus and resolve that he was able to tap into and detect. ' incredible... everyone is trying so hard
Continuing to focus on his surroundings there was one specific sense that he was not able to shake after the remainder of the clutter of emotions had cleared. Murder. His eyes opened, scanning the room. The bloodlust he sensed was intense. Overwhelming. Finally, his vision fell on a large hulking man in a white dirty training uniform.
As he examined the man, he noticed his own gaze was focused on the instructor. The ill intent seemed to be directed at the teacher commanding the room. Hachiro rose, curious of what was going on. The towering man slowly made his way to the instructor. Balling his fist into a hammer like construct. Hachiro's eyes widened. Realizing he was going to attack the man.
Moving quickly, he darted forward. Just before he would reach the two, a second bloodlust flickered for a single instant and vanished. Just as it would vanish, the Sensei turned and contorted the man's wrist, effectively flipping him into his back. A swift kick to his face followed, knocking him out. Hachiro realized his senses had picked up the quick flutter of killing intent given off by the teacher for his disobedient student. [ Insight Rain Learned[B Rank]]
Hachiro's training continues. He browsed over the scroll, learning the overview of the technique. He would grasp the techniques simple design quickly. He placed the scroll Down and began the physical application.
During his physical training he would take his sword in both hands, holding it centered and ready. As he did he stepped forward, slashing the blade of the sword downward as he moved. Nearly instantly his blade was flipped, cutting upward. The chakra in his system would augment his nerves to create the near instant motion.
[Turning Swallow Cut Learned [D Rank]]
Next in his regiment would be the signature of his secondary style, tetsu no ryu. This technique involved coating the blade of the weapon in chakra and using it to augment the weapon's cutting potential. Hachiro had seen this technique used when his brother fought with several other individuals at home. A powerful skill indeed.
Standing with both hands on the hilt, chakra surged through the blade. His complex mixture of chakra into the blade caused his bloodlines inborn ability to create light from the blade. The glowing blade was coated in a thin layer of chakra. Approaching the tatami cutting mats, Hachiro rested the technique. With very little effort he sliced through the bamboo and straw. The chakra scabbard technique had been mastered. For now.
___Kaneo would have let out a sigh if he'd had time to, but Mizuki seemed content to push him to his limit. That was fine, it'd make the after party more interesting, and frankly he needed it. He was, however, outclassed. That much was clear. He activated his clan's tracking abilities and shifted his sight upwards as she almost literally jumped on him, nicks appearing all over his body. They stung, but the sensation coalesced a moment later into something greater than its whole. Even with his clan abilities he could only see the path she traveled, but he did have something up his sleeve. "You know I like it rough, Zuki-chan." He said as he formed a cannonball-sized sphere of air compressed in front of them when the medic reached for him. It'd explode a moment later, knocking the wind out of the both of them and, hopefully, stopping whatever Mizuki was planning. The genin watched himself struggle for breath from his new vantage point on the ceiling. It was a shame it wouldn't last much longer, because it did allow him a nice view of the fight. He got the impression that he could get accustomed to watching himself from the 3rd person, especially if Zuki was involved. Though he also got the impression that feeling like you just kicked yourself in the sternum was less satisfactory than her picking at him. Nearby the Mist Servant disappeared back into the fog. There was a chance he could use the technique to his advantage, even though Mizuki seemed to have figured it out.
The blast of air might have well been a kick to the sternum with how it winded her and interrupted her strike. "I'm glad, cause I like to be rough~" she retorted while getting her breath back. Jumping back a couple of feet she began to weave hand seals for another attack. Suiton chakra channeled through her body until she expelled a stream of viscous liquid from her mouth towards Kaneo and the ground around him. [1/1] [Syrup Capture Field] For the most part she was still engaging in quite the non lethal techniques. However that didn't mean she was exactly going easy on the boy. Mizuki was drawing this out into a battle of endurance for now. Following up her previous attack came five short bursts of a water stream. The hits themselves wouldn't be very strong but they could be irritating or eat up one's focus. [1/1] [Fish Spit]
Each attack of Mizuki's focused on controlling an area. How she liked to fight was essentially a children's pretend game of "the floor is lava." In the academy she hadn't had so many tools at her disposal but her fighting wasn't all that different from then. Create an area that benefits herself, and then use corralling tactics to force her opponent into said area. Like in this case, smoke which she was good at fighting in was to Kaneo's rear, the ground and himself was about to be coated in a sticky substance that could trap him in place if he didn't react quick enough, and now he had to dodge some incoming attacks. Mizuki was apparently a big fan of that pretend time play despite her fear of children.

___"Your ~stamina~ is impressive as always, Zuki chan." Kaneo quipped as he used her retreat as an excuse to finally regain his footing. He was already considering another genjutsu when she busted out the projectile ninjutsu. This would require something a bit more complex to deal with.[1/4] Kaneo charged chakra in the palm of his free hand as it reached to the weapons at his hip. A finger tugged one up, spinning it in the process. That bit was important if he was going to Gale Wind Palm's ability to alter projectile flight.[2/4] As the kunai spun up the nature of the chakra in his palm shifted to Fuuton. The air around it began to swirl just as the kunai tip reached horizontal, and Kaneo launched his attack. A palm extended toward the eyelet of the weapon, making contact with a deceptive gentleness.[3/4] The small throwing weapon would seem to explode away from him, along with a burst of wind that would likely deal with whatever that glop of suiton Mizuki launched first was. Adding a little of his own clan's jutsu as he launched it, would mean the weapon also traveled at exceptional speed in addition to hitting harder. He'd avoid, for now, adding his clan's tracking ability to the projectile and just let the fuuton technique do its work.[4/4] [ Gale Wind Palm | Rank C ]
His kunai would likely fly unabated, but Kaneo was left to deal with Mizuki's other ninjutsu. His sword managed to catch the water mid-flight, breaking them up with ease, but still managing to get soaked in the process. "Now look what you've done. I'm all wet, Zuki-chan." The young man called as he slipped back into the smoke. No doubt she had a method for dealing with this particular visual hindrance, but he wondered if it'd last as long as his own. And he had an idea to make it worse. For now his own vision remained above the scene, and he had all the information he needed.
Natsu stretched a bit as she gathered herself once more. Dancing around the area as another trainer decided to take a crack at her. Something was odd though as she made no indication to attack him. So instead he rushed her only to have her dance around him. [1/1 Formless Soft Physical - Rank E]
She giggled a bit as he found himself more and more frustrated. She had made a fool of two of the trainers already. The question that came to his mind was, was she going to make a fool of him. When he rushed her with a round house she shoved his leg aside and danced around him again. Bouncing around as if she were lighter than air. [1/1 Formless Soft Physical - Rank D]
He showed he was getting annoyed and frustrated as he continued his assault. His assault was more focused than anything else however. He was concentrating and trying to actually hit her. Something she would have to respect entirely. Giggling like the mad hatter she continued to dodge him. [1/1 Formless Soft Physical - Rank C]
Licking her lips she giggled and waved at him. He stopped and gave her a look like he was going to kill her. She winked at him as she loved the thought of the challenge. She wouldn't back down as she knew that she had this. Dancing a bit she was acting as if she was a jester. [1/3 Formless Soft Physical - Rank B]
Dancing a bit more she continued to taunt him. Only furthering his frustration as he didn't care for her. She was too bubbly and giggly in her efforts. However she was still showing wonderful progress. That he would never deny her as he'd been watching her for a while. Licking her lips she giggled yet again. [2/3 Formless Soft Physical - Rank B]
Rolling her shoulders a bit she readied herself for his next assault. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to do s**t. Licking her teeth her brilliant smile was showing. As she continued to dance around the man. Taunting him as he missed every strike he threw at her. [3/3 Formless Soft Physical - Rank B]
Natsu moved on with her training as the man simply gave up. He tossed his hands in the air and was frowning as he walked away. She giggled as well as that meant she was superior to him. She had just made three trainer's look like garbage. She moved onto the next portion of her training by managing to seal a technique into a scroll. [1/1 Fūnyū no Jutsu [ Enclosing Technique ]]
She grabbed three other scrolls and continued her training. Using the techniques at the corresponding ranks. This wasn't a technique that she could just feed more chakra to make stronger. This was a technique that she had to train to get stronger and stronger. Which this was something she was okay with. [1/1 Enclosing technique]
Licking her lips she focused more and more chakra into the scroll. Cracking her neck she smiled as she put more into it. She was going to be an excellent shinobi and she knew it well. Not many people would be able to keep up with her in the slightest. She might even be able to give Shiro a run for his money. [1/1 Enclosing technique]
She began to move slightly as if she were trying to dance once more. Her movements quit odd as she was smiling like a demon. Not caring in the slightest should anyone try to come at her. She would beat them down rather easily. After all she was probably one of the strongest genin in the village. [1/2 Enclosing technique.]
She kind of hoped someone would be stupid enough to try and jump her. That was she could show just how vicious she was. She'd float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. Sendin' them all up and knockin' em' down. Sending them flying spinnin' round. [2/2 Enclosing technique]
She continued with her efforts of studying this strange type of jutsu. She was extremely excited by the process of it. As well as the indications of what she could possibly do with it. Licking her lips she danced a bit as she was excited for it. It didn't take long for her to pull the same technique out of the scroll. [1/1 Kaifū no Jutsu [ Unsealing Technique ]]
She went to each scroll and began to focus upon it. One by one she would endure everything to further her training. Smiling as she knew that she could do it. She'd take on everyone one by one in the dojo if she had to. She'd be the one to come out on top and show she was the strongest. [1/1 Unsealing technique]
Dancing a bit she moved to the next scroll. Smiling a bit more as she was becoming quite proficient with what she was wanting to do. Humming a bit she sat down in front of a scroll. Merely looking at it and focusing upon it. Eventually managing to unlock the scroll once more. [1/1 Unsealing technique]
She got up and stretched a bit as she yawned. She was getting slightly tired as she contiued to train. Smiling a bit as she moved to the last scroll. She sat down in front of it and began to think of how to do this. Then she giggled a bit about it. [1/2 Unsealing technique]
She didn't know why she had to think about it as she just had to do it. Licking her lips she placed her hand on the scroll. She put her chakra into it and licked her lips yet again. Sighing softly she could feel the pull of it. Eventually unlocking the technique and moving onto the next stage. [2/2 Unsealing technique]
There are runes scratched into the knives and giggled. She loved the thought of what she was going to be able to do from this. Licking her lips she began to toss the knives around in different areas. She then began to bounce around from knife to knife in the blink of an eye. A cluster of laughter could be heard as she loved this technique. [1/1 Fuuinjutsu: Shunshin no Jutsu]
Licking her lips she saw a rabbit in the distance. Her eyes lit up as she adored rabbits something fierce. They were just so adorable to her that she couldn't help herself. She grabbed the little guy and tried something. Biting her thumb she slammed it down on the ground and managed to summon it. [1/1 Summoning jutsu]
She looked to the bunny again and began to focus. Wanting to perfect this technique for now as for her needs. She giggled a bit as it binked in front of her. Which meant it was pretty happy with her. Licking her teeth she was so happy with that. [1/2 Summoning Jutsu]
She moved across the area and then used the technique once more. Biting into her thumb and slamming it upon he ground. Knowing that she held the bunny in her arms once more she couldn't be any happier. it was just so cute to her. It was going to be a shame when she had to let it go. [2/2 Summoning Jutsu]
But that was the part that confused her as she didn't know how it got here in the first place. Sniffling a bit she put the rabbit down and walked away from it. Cracking her neck she focused upon her chakra. Ready for the next technique to perform. She used the proper hand signs and unlocked yet another technique. [1/1 Reverse summoning Jutsu]
She appeared next to the bunny and picked it up once more. Petting it as she adored the little thing entirely. Licking her lips she danced back away from the rabbit. Knowing that she was goign to have to try it again. She readied herself once more as she was a sufficient distance away. [1/2 Reverse summoning jutsu]
Doing the same thing as before she appeared next to the rabbit. Taking the rabbit within her hands she moved to the outside of the building and set it down. She didn't want the creature to get hurt as everyone was training inside. Especially with how badly the trainer's wanted a piece of her honestly. All of them looking at her as if she was a sheep walking to the wolves. [2/2 Reverse summoning jutsu]
She would move onto learn yet another technique. Her training was far from over as she had so much to set out and do. Smiling she took two of the scrolls from earlier and threw them into the air. Leaping with them as a vortex was created she began to throw the objects from them at her would be enemies [1/1 Twin rising dragon]
She continued on with her training as she was almost done. Licking her lips she knew this as she wasn't going to dive all the way into sealing training. There was no point as she just needed enough to get by. She was a spider after all who need to learn to lure people into her web. Sealing jutsu was just the way to go about it. [1/2 Expansion]
Focusing upon a piece of paper she began to write a seal upon it. Knowing that she was going to have to use a bit more chakra to summon the weapons. She readied herself with a smile and cracked her neck. She was almost there and ready to rock. It wouldn't be too much longer before she was keeping up with Shiro himself. [2/2 Expansion]
She had one more technique to learn before she was finally finished. Cracking her neck she began to focus upon it. As far as what she was going to put within the technique itself. Licking her lips she felt as if she had the right one and then giggled a bit. [1/2 Heavenly chain disaster]
She threw the scroll into the air as high as she could and the tools fell from the sky at a ferocious rate. They fell so fast that they held a white trail of light behind them. Almost looking like they were falling stars in reality. Such a beautiful technique that fell upon the dummys. Her eyes looked at the remains and giggled as not only was it beautiful but it was deadly as well. [2/2 heavenly chain disaster]
● Mystic Hero: The user is much like a hybrid warrior, focusing on mixing ninjutsu into their personal arsenal. Through their great devotion to this path the user can cast ninjutsu without hand seals while wielding a weapon, D at D-rank, C at C-rank, B at B-rank, A at A-rank, and S at S-rank. These techniques maintain the same description and criteria to use, as well as require the same amount of time to mold the chakra through the weapon as would be needed to perform hand seals, meaning the techniques are not instantaneously cast. The user’s spirit is so strong, that they can utilize their physical bukijutsu techniques to negate ninjutsu techniques of the same rank or below.
● Resolution: The user is more determined to get fine details from his sensory techniques, but in order to get this type of clarity the user's range of the technique is reduced by half. The user is able to discover type of technique that is about to be active (fuuin, genjutsu, ninjutsu, custom jutsu, complex tai and buki), even specifics such as Bloodline type and rank. Additionally, the user can gain similar information about any chakra source in their sensory technique's range, including what bloodline the person possesses, assuming the user has seen the bloodline before, and approximately how large their chakra pool is.
● Resolution 2: Members of the Resolution discipline have three-quarters the range, instead of half.
● Skill: Multitasking While the first two stages of the style revolve around the very basics of how to use a bow, the third stage incorporates the use multiple arrows into a more stylish way of battling. Mastery allows the user to simultaneously fire multiple arrows with any technique that does not specifically state otherwise, and allows the Arrow Creation technique to create up to three arrows at once with no increase in cost.
● Skill: Manipulation Manipulating the bow itself is simple, but controlling the arrows is very difficult. Many enhancements can be made to arrows to give them different flight paths, but buying those kinds of arrows is expensive and making them is difficult, so a method was developed wherein the user can freely alter how an arrow flies without need for such trifles. During this training, the user practices firing arrows with abnormal hand positions. Reduces the Stamina cost of bow-related Bukijutsu techniques (including Formless Styles) by 10 Stamina, to a minimum of 5 Stamina.
● Manipulating Line An addition to the technique Calling Cord. By laying a good amount of additional chakra into the strings wrapped around the projectiles, the user is able to fully control the length, direction, and movement of the strings. Thus, allowing for incredibly diverse attacks from all angles. Automatically applied after learning.
● Kemuri no Shikaku [ Sight through Smoke ] The practitioner grows accustomed to the way smoke flows around them and others. The practitioner's vision is no longer adversely affected by their smoke bombs.
● Offensive Style: Knife Stances The user becomes more accustomed to upward, downward, and sideways slashing motions. Speed of all Bukijutsu employing small arms is mildly increased.
● Offensive Style: Simple Play With this training, the user is able to more comfortably switch between upward, downward, and sideways slashing motions in a pinch. The user's reflexes are mildly increased.
● Trick Style: Knife Toss The practitioner has developed a greater sense of precision and is now able to throw, juggle, and catch their knives by the hilt with ease. Confers a slight reflex bonus to the practitioner.
● Offensive Style: Artless Draw The practitioner has better developed their ability to pull their blade straight from its resting place to an offensive slash. Slightly increases the speed of strikes made when drawing a small weapon.
● Offensive Style: Two-fer-One The practitioner is now accustomed to performing techniques they have mastered with either one or two knives. Once per post, the user may use a single D-Rank or lower technique from this Style without paying the cost.
● Trick Style: Retreating Feet The practitioner, already acquainted with many techniques in the style, has finally realized that with a little bit of personal training, they are able to increase the precision and speed at which they lift and press their feet. The practitioner's footsteps are rendered silent to all who do not have enhanced hearing, and the footsteps they leave in soft ground are shallow. This not only assists their ability to sneak up on people faster and quieter, but also helps when running from trackers.
● Trick Style: Blade’s Edge The practitioner has developed an even greater sense of precision and is now able to throw, juggle, and catch their knives by the tip with ease. Additionally, some projectiles, such as shuriken or kunai, can be caught by their tip. Confers a slight increase to the user's reflexes.

Him and that annoying air. Mizuki seemed to tilt her head slightly when her syrup was split by an air current. While it did prevent Kaneo from being caught it also didn't deal with her technique in it totality. Instead there were now two cone shaped fields of the sticky substance to either side of her smoke cloud. If Kaneo wanted to flee to the left or the right he'd have to use the water walking technique to not get stuck. He was also quick enough to dice up her fish spit attack, but all of this wind usage had to be starting to wear down his chakra reserves. Kaneo's quip earned him a laugh from Mizuki. "Guess I should help you dry off then♪" Stringing together hand seals rather rapidly it wasn't long before the woman exhaled a strange vapor into the smoke cloud. It would of course be aimed at Kaneo's location within the smoke since he was still within her sensor range. [2/1] [Mist Waltz] Once the mist was in place she snapped her fingers to create a spark which would ignite the highly flammable vapor. [Cinder Technique]
___Kaneo's vision faded back into his own head as Mizuki's chakra flowed into and mingled with the smoke around him. Considering how much stronger his dear friend had gotten, he knew he didn't want to stay here, and began gathering chakra for his escape. Zuki-chan had her Shunshi, it was time he had his own.[1/3] Chakra charged around his body in a snap, whipping up a small wind. Supposedly, from what the scroll he'd studied earlier said, this would allow him to deflect simple projectiles. Though he only cared about not getting ******** up by whatever the marvelous medic had planned for that chakra.[2/3] A moment after the wind appeared he lifted slight and then zipped away in a blur. Undoubtedly he was too slow to actually escape Mizuki's sensory, but it should have been quick enough to put him at her left flank without giving her time to make any big repositionings. He'd hoped he'd gotten far enough to escape all the crap she put on the ground earlier but honestly didn't have time, landing in a manner that would allow him to immediately launch his next attack.[3/3] [ Fuuton: Shunshin no Jutsu | Rank D ]
"Zap zap, Zuki." His little taunt came as he pulled his free hand back to his side. His chakra gathered there about his arm, growing rapidly in quantity. With a crackle it sparked up, and electricity coalesced into his palm.[1/3] His body shuddered under the current, but he smiled despite shocking himself in the process. Turned out, using electrical techniques when covered in water tended to have adverse effects. As with the Fuuton technique earlier, Kaneo's hand darted forward.[2/3] It was almost as if he threw his chakra at Mizuki. A bolt of Raiton energy streaking towards her even as it arced across his own chest. What a marvelous element, even if this particular iteration wasn't particularly strong. He honestly didn't even care if it hit at this point, the s**t was just fun.[3/3] [ Lightning Bolt Technique | Rank D ]
Of course, with Mizuki outclassing him, he'd need to prepare for any more of her area of effect shenanigans. At the moment that meant ensuring he could see if she summoned up another cloud of smoke. Once again his fingers nimbly snatched a kunai, creating a focus point and tossing it up into the ceiling. Someone was going to very annoyed with them later, provided whoever was on the roof didn't destroy everything anyways.
Honō's attire was more tied up than usual in preperation of his incoming training. The long sleeves of his haori were primly placed and tied up onto his shoulders, preventing the formerly loose material from getting in the way or otherwise damaged. Slender, white arms were revealed, as well as the muscles that lined them. Despite his slender, fragile appearance, the Hokori was a worker, first and foremost, meaning physical labour was not foriegn to him or his body. Standing before the Hari clan member, an instructor was ready to begin the spar. Before they even began, however, Honō's posture was being corrected and he was physically maneauved into a more appropriate stance. [ Learning Technique : C-Rank Simple Physical [ 3/6 ] ]
The Hokori male was treated gently at first. The instructor verbally announced their moves before making them, as well as the appropriate way for Honō to respond in kind. His tall frame left him in a slightly unique position in terms of how to move his feet while keeping his balance. Taking it as a slight against the thoughtful instructor taking time out of their schedule to train this Hokori drop-out, Honō immediately fell into a deep, apologetic bow. It lead to a bemused Chuunin and Honō getting an opportunity to right his position back into the taught stance. [ Learning Technique : C-Rank Simple Physical [ 4/6 ] ]
Feet shifting slightly in both an attempt to please and nervousness of dissapointment, Honō righted himself into as close as he could get to the appropriate way to center his point of gravity while remaining ready to dodge, parry, or throw one of his weapons. The Chuunin stepped back and evaluated, before getting in close to start poking their 'student' in various places. Honō did his best to right himself at every poke, finding his center of balance and correcting any over-corrections by the smallest shifts. It took a while before the poking resulted in next to no-need for the skinny worker to balance himself. [ Learning Technique : C-Rank Simple Physical [ 5/6 ] ]
Apparently 'balanced' enough now, the instructor went back to trowing hits, this time without vocalising what was going to be thrown Honō's way. It was basic and repeatative at first, slow enough for Honō to get used to his own movements in either dodging or redirecting the blow aimed at him. Slowly, the Hokori's instructor upped the speed and changed the rhythm, forcing Honō to adapt and change. Whenever he would hunch in on himself, or otherwise ruin his footing, the instructor would unleash a punishing blow to deliberately injure the Worker - to associate pain with incorrect placement, they explained. It helped, Honō noted, in that he began to actually fear his posture slipping and actively work to keep it proper. [ Learned Technique : C-Rank Simple Physical [ 6/6 ] ] [ -2 Dojo Reduction ]

Despite her ability to feel chakra it was still hard for the mind to keep up with the speed of a shunshin. As a result she didn't quite have time to mount a defense against the raiton attack. The electricity collided with her stomach and made her eyelids seem to close with a wince, but at the same time a smile was still on her face. "Oooh~ that was good Kane-kun, how come I never got to see that one behind closed doors?" The impact site on her stomach felt a little numb now but overall the experience was rather enjoyable. A toned down version would be fantastic! However his new positioning of his was annoying.
The smoke had blown away by the explosion of her mist and revealed just how the capture field was sitting. With Mizuki facing towards towards Kaneo there was a channel of safe space to the right between the two cones of fluid. Kaneo had the sticky situation to his left and on the opposite side of the two was clear floor. Time to mess with his sight again. Forming a couple of seals she gathered up suition chakra and released it into the surrounding environment. The room they were occupying would suddenly be filled with a dense fog which was laced with a small amount of chakra. [1/1][ Hidden Mist learned ] While Mizuki could of course still feel the different chakra sources around her, it wouldn't hurt to remember her readings in class and recall the way to see through such misty conditions. Slowly her vision cleared up and she began to be able to see more of the room. Eventually she could see through the mist clear as day. [1/1] [Mist Vision] Though perhaps messing with Kaneo a little more wouldn't hurt so long as she was careful right? Taking in a deep breath she exhaled a much thicker cloud of vapor which formed into a copy of herself. Mizuki and her clone hugged each other and twirled in circles for a moment before going their separate ways. The clone she was created was a carrying a more neutral pH than it normally would, low enough to irritate his skin and eyes but not enough to cause harm.
___Back up to the ceiling again Kaneo went, but this time, with only one eye. "Brand new I'm afraid. I'll see if we can't find a more practical application next time we get together." It was still quite the unpleasant experience, shifting his sight around, but it couldn't hurt to have a different perspective. The point's location up on the ceiling would also ensure that he didn't have a problem tracking movement in a blind spot. That said, everything would be much easier without this mist. Splitting his vision would actually be exceptionally useful, as he could use it to triangulate a point where he though Mizuki might be even without sight. It would be her last known location, so he was a little screwed, and, honestly, getting a little worn out. He'd need this particular attack to land in some form if he was going to be able to use his bukijutsu. So far Zuki had made that impossible.
He had two moves for the moment though. The air where he expected Mizuki to be would condense rapidly enough to cause lightheadedness, and then burst almost as rapidly. If he managed to catch her with it, even she'd be thrown for a loop long enough for the gap between them to be closed. The explosion of air from the technique would also hopefully clear out enough of the mist for Kaneo to operate when he did get in close quarters. He expected the woman wouldn't let him wander free so easily, however, and created another focus point on a kunai that he tossed to his right. He hadn't tried to move yet, but if he'd guessed correctly that area was free of whatever Mizuki had laid down earlier, and thus she would try to stop him from going that way, or even force him back into the stuff he'd just escaped.
Slowly, slowly but steadily he was getting the information that he wanted out of the twins. He knew that they were more then smart enough and that their willpower would carry them through. But it was their combat skill that he had to test, and so far, they were stepping up to the challenge. In fact, Shiro only managed to bend at the knees and bring his elbows down to cover his stomach. Even then his guard only held up to the first punch. The second would slam into his protective aura of chakra and so too, shatter it. Leaving the third to contact directly with his lower ribs. Fracturing a couple of them and causing no small amount of pain. Wincing as he was propelled backwards he quickly pulled a kunai from his belt and plunged it into the ground to anchor himself and keep himself from going flying. Damn that kid could hit hard.
Rising, slowly back to his feet he allowed his chakra to harden back into its aura, this time though that golden chakra arc-ed and flowed around his body, causing his jacket and hair to lightly flow along with it. Moving slowly to the hole he had created he smiled,"Want to keep going? Or do you want to call it. I've seen what I wanted to see."

Jay saw the Kage look down from the hole he had made in the roof, and realized then he was seeing double. The light from outside was conflicting with the light from the Dojo and causing him a small deal of discomfort. At the notion it was a small deal, Jeon began to emerge from the body and helped keep him stand tall. A bit of blood was trickling from his head, and as their unhardening skin would reveal he had a pretty nice bruise on the side of his face. Still, he smiled at the raikage. "I'm ready to go if you are!" he rather indignantly stated. It seemed out of character but it was also out of character for Jay to turn down a chance to flex.
Jeon, however, shoved him really hard. "No, he's done actually. In fact, if I felt it right when my fist connected, you both should get some medical help." She winked at him, and allowed Jay to put his weight on her shoulders. It indeed was Jeon's left hand that made it's way past his guard and slammed into his ribcage.

Through their great devotion to this path the user can cast ninjutsu without hand seals while wielding a weapon, D at D-rank, C at C-rank, B at B-rank, A at A-rank, and S at S-rank. These techniques maintain the same description and criteria to use, as well as require the same amount of time to mold the chakra through the weapon as would be needed to perform hand seals, meaning the techniques are not instantaneously cast. The user’s spirit is so strong, that they can utilize their physical bukijutsu techniques to negate ninjutsu techniques of the same rank or below. Techniques Used:
Mizuki watched from within the mist as Kaneo moved to counter her. He was doing something again but she wasn't sure what. Small points emanating his chakra were lodged in the ceiling. In addition to that something was going on with the air where her clone was. In an instant her mist was blown away by the massive burst of air. The clone seemed to wobble for a moment before it just looked at Kaneo with a grin. "That was rough Kane-kun~" her voice was teasing as she grinned at the man. It was then that the clone stuck it's tongue out and laughed at Kaneo before waving for him to come get it.
Meanwhile the real Mizuki was a ways back from where she had vanished previously. It seemed like she weaving some sort of hand seals. If Kaneo was able to catch them he'd be able to tell from their studies at the academy that it was some kind of suiton. When she finished a low rumble rocked the floor before a spring of water burst through the fall and began to flood it. Soon about an inch or two of water was spilling out across the floor and filling the room. [1/1] [Waterfall Basin Technique] The water was of course not very threatening, but clearly where Mizuki was concerned something effecting the battlefield was troubling. In addition to this the armor of steam coating her body dissipated and vanished.
___"You can use the safe word if you want to." Kaneo quipped, though he was somewhat disappointed she hadn't been more aggressive. He didn't have much of a choice, though, he had to be now. He couldn't do anything about the water, but he knew the one hit by his technique was a clone or other sort of recreation of Zuki. Otherwise it'd be doubled over gasping for breath. His vision split again, knowing the woman was perfectly capable of robbing him of his sight anyways, and charged his sword with defensive chakra. And then he zipped away again, a shunshin carrying him away. He wanted no part of a clone or whatever that could stand up to a B rank technique. No, he'd skip right over that and close in, though at this rate Mizuki would be able to see clear signs of chakra fatigue, enough to tell this fight was on its last legs despite Kaneo's valiant effort to turn the tide late in the battle. He wouldn't make it to her before she got a chance to react, but hopefully a sword charged with chakra would be enough to offset all the skill she'd apparently picked up.
Kaneo apparently wanted nothing to do with her clone after it stood up to his attack. Of course he utilized another flash step to try and close the distance but it was clear that he was becoming exhausted. Mizuki smirked as he'd left himself open open reaching her true position. However the chakra coursing through his blade seemed rather strong. There was no way her own weapon skills could match Kaneo in bukijutsu match up. No instead she needed to use her own strong suits to beat him. Recalling back to studying she did the girl called forth her chakra and quickly weaved several seals. The water around their feet began to rapidly conglomerate and swell in between the two before it formed into formed into five spears that all farted for Kaneo. [2/2] [ Drilling Water Spears ]
However Mizuki wasn't content to take this easy on him. Quite the contrary in fact. Part of her suspected that the man would be able to deal with the water spears. This of course meant that she needed to give him something else to deal with. Gathering chakra to her mouth the woman suddenly let forth a small hose stream size of water with a force capable of cutting through wood. However as it traveled through the air, Kaneo would be able to see steam rolling off the liquid as it was at boiling temperature. Her intent was to force Kanzaki to use up enough chakra that he gave up on using techniques that required the energy. Hopefully after that she'd be able to match in him in raw close quarters skill. That or dodge until he ran out of energy. [2/2] [ Water Cannon Technique ]
The clone was also looking to close the gap between its creator and itself. Each running step caused a splash of water as it stomped in the thin layer that still coated the floor.
