Aeonian Rivalry [Li Sheng]

[Messatsu!]

The sun had shone itself brightly, casting its liquid beams to spill upon his back and neck, unwillingly incrementing his body heat, forcing him to summon yet another graveled sigh. The suns perpetual heat was drawn to Yuuza like metal to a magnet due to his traditional shinobi attire of black and the battle gear that now rested upon his torso at the expense of a sunagakure shinobi; the fitted shihakusho and the incessantly comfortable hakama. The black jaw mask he sported before was no more, hidden away within his clothing, only replaced by the steel face mask. His fingers ran through the apex of his satiny brow hair casting away the brief itch that struck him before taking off in a headlong sprint at max speeds. His occuli shifted once more, this time keenly watching the road ahead.

Flickering through the trees flashes of brown and green washed over his face as he powered through the sequences of trees toward his destination with gales of gales of mist opposing his tread. Making great speed with his senses' wide open, his mind withdrew itself into thought momentarily, silently brooding upon matters regarding his Elder brother and his own goal as a shinobi; it was impossible for Yuuza to cease thinking about his brother, he was family. He heard word of a powerful suiton blade that laid in Mizu no kuni's mountain, a long lost relic of the Yuuza clan. From this alone he could somewhat determine where it was thanks to his past visits, he had a hunch, and he followed it. Yuuza proceeded with grace, his purple optics caught sight of several landmarks in which he previously passed upon his recent visits to meet with several Kirigakure shinobi. Eventually he was within the far north of Mizu no kuni, a place where hozuki and suiton users alike felt close to home.

[Mad-Rock]

Growling beneath his breath he left the village gates of the Hidden Mist Village behind. So the Seven Legendary Swordsmen, as he had grown to call them, were no more, the last war laying waste to them all apparently, leaving their swords lost...for now. Now departing from the village he sought to begin looking for these blades, with not even a single hint of where to exactly look. Sliding a hand through his hair he grumbled before resting his palms at the hilts of his blades.

Adventuring through the mist until it cleared up and he found himself walking through lively forests. He was suprised he didn't meet any resistance as he had on his way finding the village. Nonetheless it did not bother him, his primary focus was on finding one of the Hidden Mist's lost legendary blades.

Yet, he'd come to find his eyes bouncing around, following a dark figure, until his feet brought him to following the figure as well, though a distance away. "Hey."

[Messatsu!]

One after another the spiraling boughs of Mizu no kuni's trees stood no chance against the chakra charged feet Yuuza sport to give a speeding flavor to his tread. However, his travels had come to an abrupt at the voice and presence of another, an entity whom he'd never met, he was sure of it. But one thing he knew nothing of was whether this man was an enemy or alley, nonetheless he refused to wait an overly long time to find out, especially given that he had been pressed for time in pursuing his objectives.

"Who could this man be, and why is he following me, whatever it is I doubt its good. people just don't randomly follow others, perhaps he's noticed me and wishes to collect my bounty."

These thoughts occupied Yuuza's mind as he simulated all possible reasons as to why someone would have been following him, it vexed him greatly. Sadly, he couldn't stay to find out, he was wasting valuable seconds just ceasing his movements but all of it would end soon. A quick glanced contrived itself back over Yuuza's shoulder, meeting gaze with the samurai as his purple eyes spilled with the inextinguishable fires of ambition.

Drawing forth from the well of semi-tangible power he formed a single seal with both digits and in an instant the area brimmed with a blinding mist, so much so that even making out ones own hand and feet seemed to be an impossible task. With his own presence obscure he dropped down to the earthen and flickered forward 10 meters before turning around and drawing forth another Stigma of power.

Shunshin x1

Kirigakure no Jutsu (Hidden Mist Technique)
Rank: D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D [200]
Type: Supplementary / Suiton Ninjutsu
Range: 0 -10 meters
Special: Fills a large, 10 meter area with mist as long as the user keep the technique flowing. Each time retrained, area of mist expands by 10 more meters. Mist blocks out all doujutsu requiring clear visibility.
Description: Though very basic, the Hidden Mist Technique allows for the stealthier side of combat to rule.

The low visibility allows the ninja to silently and secretly assassinate their target, as they can move unseen, and if careful, unheard.
Domain: Suiton.

And so this is it;

And almost as soon as he had finished his single word, the individual became hostile clearly as a mist jettisoned about from around him, shit. Clearly he was no friendly fellow, or perhaps he was just spooked? But, why be spooked? Had he stolen something recently and mistook Li for someone hunting him down? Pulling his helmet on he drew his blade with amazing speed before standing their silently, his breathing near silent as he let his ears do the work, when one could not see their opponent, they could hear them...usually.

Twirling his blades each once he caught the faint sound of something fast stopping in it's tracks, from right ahead of him. Flowing chakra into his weapons of war, adding length and sharpness to them before they fired off in a dance of deadliness. If his foe attempted to dodge to the side, backwards, or forwards they'd find themselves getting caught in the swinging blades of chakra. Their only safe haven being the air, at least for the moment, for as soon as they landed he'd know their position, and as such he readied himself to launch another attack.

Sound, auditory sensation, however you put it, its a sense often taken lightly among the masses of society and combatants. Whether it was used to bask in the songs of nature, or to exquisitely amass classified information and even keenly track or pinpoint an encroaching target. It was a important, central cohesive source of support and stability with the human structure. Though his sight failed him as it did his opponents, he needed not the capability to see in order to combat with another.

A simple shift in the winds was heard from the uprooting leaves and earth coupled with whispering winds that told countless warnings, he knew something was coming but he knew not what it truly was, and truthfully he refused to find out. The mans attack came, yet, victory had not come, nor did blood, no, instead the unpalatable sounds of severed wood could have been heard. The physical exchange instantly ended with a harmless explosion of smoke, reveling piece of tree that was stolen from one of many trees within Mizu no kuni, leaving Yuuza crouched athletically behind a tree 5 meters to his right and the mans left silently.

His digits converged once more, flipping and twisting, taking hold of power within, summoning three clones in a triangle formation in the same spot where the now dead log laid. With a single seal he discontinued the mist before releasing suigai from its prison.

The second the mist started to fade the three clones ran forward in a full sprint, aiming to take over the man before them.

Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu (Water Clone Techqniue)
Rank: C, C, C [150]
Type: Supplementary / Suiton Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Special: Clone speed matches that of the user. Up to one clone can be made at a time, plus one more each time retrained. Explosion range covers 5 meters. For every 4 clones simultaneously detonated over an opponent, the effects of 'Water Prison' can be achieved without needing physical contact. Same 'Prison' effects apply.
Description: With this technique, the Suiton user is able to call upon aid from a perfect copy of themselves. Comprised purely of water, this clone retains the user movement speed and can share linked mental judgement. Best of all, physical strikes fixed on a point within their body will force it to break up into a puddle and join the mass below, able to avoid danger and regenerate anywhere the water exists. Finally, when defeated, the clone explodes into a blob of water that aims to take over the nearest opponent available. If found, the water envelops the victim whole, drowning them in the user's cursed water and setting up more attacks of the same nature.
Domain: Suiton.

The sound of a wood being torn to shreds caused his brow to raise, especially with the silence that followed after, minus the faint sound of hand seals being woven. Turning his attention to that area he prepared his combo once more, only to be taken back slightly as the mist faded and three figures now ran at him. Clones, but perhaps the original was within their small group?

With chakra molded over his blades, thus their lengths extended, he rushed forward as well, meeting the apparent group of clones head on. Swords weaving masterful sequences as he aimed to carve them all up, all the while prepared to launch their chakra cloaks out as deadly projectiles.

Running symmetrically in a triangle formation the clones were more alert then ever, and coupled with having shared a mental connection with their master their sense of judgement nearly matched Yuuza's own. Though the actual extension of the mans blades were impressive, however, it was still relatively thin in terms of width, and height. The opponent gave life to mobility as he to came forward with a sprint of his own, swinging away with a healthy desire to lay waste to the clones. Sadly their lives were not so malleable, at least when not controlled by Yuuza; his swings were mixed with horizonal and vertical strikes (wasn't specified) and so the clones ducked, careened, and danced around the attacks accordingly, all the while having maintained their advancement.

The moment the frontal clone of the triangles apex entered 5 meters of the mans space had it exploded into a mass of water, attempting to overcome him. The spraying of waters was likely to slightly obscure or blur the vision of remaining clones if even for a second. As they entered range they too mirrored their counterpart.

Simultaneously

The second the first water explosion crepitated through the fabrics of air, had Yuuza curved and turned outwardly from the tree, running along a parallel path of his clones. Advancing 4 meters his body seemingly removed itself from the physical plane for a split second, flickering through the crevice of the trees. He landed roughly 6 meters behind the samurai, yet still remained 5 meter horizontal distance. Mind you by this time the final two clones had just exploded, and as they did Yuuza advanced two meters before swinging suigai at the openness of air in attempt to blind side the samurai.

Suigai released a 5 meter long blade of condensed suiton chakra which traveling 5 times the speed of a fully thrown kunai, a tier of speed that could possibly dominate the sharingan. given the 9 meter distance the attack would be unlikely to dodge, but if the gods favored the man afront, then two more would follow him wherever he'd try to move and/or dodge.

Suigai {Lit: Waters Edge}
Rank: B
Type: Melee/ specialty/ offensive
Special: Suigai has one major ability, also must have suiton release in order to wield.

Cost: Free {from promotion, never used my free B ranked weapon}

Kirikatta {Lit: Watter Cutter}
Rank: B
Type: Offesnive
Range: 10 meters
Special: Kirikatta travels 10 meters, plus another 10 after being retrained. Kirikatta has a cooldown of two post and can be used three times in one post, plus one more when re-trained.
Description: Kirikatta draws from the wielders Suiton chakra, molding it into a pressurized arc of highly condensed water. The outcome of such is a slash attack being released that flies forward in only a linear fashion. This slash takes the form of a wave and is so sharp that it can easily slice through boulders. Each time the users fires Kirikatta, B rank chakra is consumed. Kirikatta moves at a speed equal to that of a thrown kunai x5.
Domain: Suiton

They danced around, dodging his sequences of attacks And now threatened to overcome him as they exploded? No, he would not be drowned, for how was that a death for a true warrior? As soon as the first one exploded forward as a small wave he jumped back, putting a short distance from himself and the wave. Then the others would mirror the first, causing him to jump back once more, though by now his eyes were no longer on the harmless waves, but the moving original, or he thought it was the original. And with the sound of speed coming to a halt he ducked low, spinning on his left heel.

Yet what he saw could only be the beginning of terror as the individual drew their blade back at a istance. It has to be a ranged attacked..." Thinking quickly he slashed his own sword from a distance, his speed overwhelming the young individuals, most likely to Li being focused on the physical realm over all else. And as such his released chakra blade would come to life just before the water sword would. Though which would win a clash? Just in case his thrown projectile of chakra lost, he jumped to his left.

But, the boy was quick and decided to fire off two more water blades. But, Li now knew the movements, as soon as he'd draw his blade back he knew what would be coming. And with the sight of water coming from the sword he hurled himself into the tree line, rolling as he hit the earth he kept to the shadows as a third wave sliced just beside him. Lucky shot. Keeping low he made his way around the tree line, coming forth from the shadows about ten meters from the boy's back, firing off his second chakra blade before refueling them with more chakra.

Even as Yuuza's attacks came and the samurai from some miracle stroke managed to elude the attacks from Suigai given their speed, his focus remained hard upon the Samurai's emplacement. His pitiless orbs tracked and scanned every movement he made. The first two opposing attacks negated one another but yuuza stepped to the side out of harms way just to be on the safe side. Dodging all three attacks he dashed through the tree lines, Yuuza refused to allow his actions to go unanswered. Mind you that Yuuza was previously behind the man at a distance and angle, so hugging the tree lines in attack to arc and flan Yuuza was fatal for it would take some time without the application of high speed movements.

Both eyes and body moved as the samurai piteously ran through the trees, Yuuza wasted no time at all in relinquishing himself of suigai as his hands clapped together in a single seal once more, summoning a plethora of mist as before. He wasn't so narrow-minded as to stay in the same area, especially if eyes laid upon him before the mist played its role. Instead he ran 10 meters to his own right, guided by silent footfalls that couldn't even disturb the creatures below. He sunk to the earth before his hands quietly twisted and molded themselves into an ancient ritual of power.

Finding himself within the shadows of the woods once more as his foe chose to run and hide once more. Calming his breathing he stood ready. Hidden within the shadows of the woods as well as the mist he stayed prepared. Though he would unmold the chakra from his blades and sheathing them with elegant silence as he popped a seed shaped item into his maw before wrapping a length of wire around it and taking the other end, tying it around his palm which was the same he'd hold the gourd with. All the while he'd take his free hand and draw his dominant sword, molding chakra over it once more as he waited.

Digging into his well of once more underneath the guise of his mist, Yuuza called upon a stigma of power, one that could effortlessly lay waste to his opponent. As he continued, his digits twisted and converged together, match one another perfectly. As his ritual of power ended masses of waters conglomerated from his gourd, using every single drop, generating a whirling sphere of water with a circumference of 15 meters. Surely the samurai lost track of Yuuza through the mist, it lacked the sight a Hyuuga so how could he. Nevertheless a single seal was made once again, yet, only to dispel the summoned mist revealing Yuuza's power over the waters to his opponent if he'd been watching.

And so it began.

Moving at speeds faster then a fully thrown kunai 2 tentacles sprouted from the sphere, charging in a straight forward path towards the samurai. Two others were then birthed, plunging outwardly in an arc to converge upon the Yuuza's foe from the side (Li's right), yet, something happened, one out the pair airted its path mid-flight, rising above him to converge downwardly instead. Another four tentacles were given light as two of the four lunged in an arc(opposite of the previous) attempting to flank the samurai should he have managed to dodge the other tentacles. The remaining tentacles remained for support, ready to deflect any and all incoming attacks. But if the samurai managed to dodge the tentacles, they would not stop, no, instead they would follow him relentlessly until they tasted flesh and blood.

This sphere can then emit whips of water, razor sharp at the tips, which can seek out and impale their assigned targets. The whips move slightly faster than the user’s current build allows them to, and can swat away incoming attacks, reform if their limbs are cut off, and impale anyone that comes near.

Too busy attempting to hear hand seals whistle he found himself cut up into shreds, his armour, his weapons, AND his items all being carve up as well, leaving him just a pile of carved up flesh and junk.

[Messatsu!]

Relinquishing his chakra in a controlled manner the waters took refuge within his gourd once more, satiating its interior. He pushed his mask up as his feet carried him over to his now fallen enemy, eyes burning with pity. He sunk to one knee before his hands freely moved about the mans equipment, removing all things usable. From there he continued onward to find his family's relic.

I would reign judgement on this death to not be legitimate, because it was obviously forced. If you wanted to scrap without facing the consequences of it you should have tried harder. I don't think the fact you weren't paying attention and whistling is a legitimate excuse for not even attempting to dodge an attack that was coming from all sides. It would near impossible to not notice unless you were retarded.

That being said I will call this Darwinism at it's finest, because this retarded obviously blind, death, and dumb ninja will not be able to copulate and populate the world with more herp-ninja.

That being said, it's a scrap. Due to the nature of the attack that killed , no items can be looted except the unbreakable samurai weapon.

[Mad-Rock]

He was behind a tree, how's he going to see the shit?
This wasn't a scrap, I actually liked this char. Just, if he can't hear hand seals like how they make sound while being performed in the anime, hows he going to hear condensed water tentacles?
