Again she had returned to the ruined city that she had gone to before. Then the outcome was simple and easy. Perhaps the person realized she was the Hokage or perhaps she knew of the Hyuuga’s capabilities. Regardless of the reason, upon meeting each other her previous opponent had left tail between their legs so to speak. Granted the feeling of scaring someone away was nice—but it wasn’t very honorable. That win wasn’t something that she could chalk up under her belt. It would feel too wrong to do such a thing. Despite her rash tendencies, she still had her pride.

I wonder who it will be this time…

It was an idle musing as she found herself walking down the road in the center of the roughly 200 meter ruined city. The debris from buildings long destroyed still lay undisturbed in chunks along her side. Mother nature had still tried taking back the land in some spots with vegetation growing from the cracks within the street and sidewalk. It made her wonder if this could, perhaps, be a Hidden Village from old. Maybe before the time of Kouketsu’s first war and to that of the old age of shinobi, maybe before all of the turmoil that she was used to today.

It was an interesting series of thoughts and assumptions, one that she quickly saved and retired to the back burners of her mind.

The Hyuuga stopped now; roughly around where she had stood the last time she had came to this city. Her opponent was nowhere in sight, not yet. That was fine, however, it would allow her to think of some strategy and how to use her surroundings to the best of her ability and benefit to end the fight quickly. After all, she WAS the Yondaime Hokage. It wasn’t just a title; there was indeed some merit and strength behind it as well. Today would be the day that she proved that.

Hopefully her new opponent wouldn’t run…

Ujiyasu looked around the dilapidated city as he made slow steps down the street, taking in the ruins with his own two eyes. In truth, he couldn't remember how he got here, let alone why, but all he knew was that he'd have to take on various people to achieve some end. Whatever that may be.

The wild, dirty-blond mane of hair wavered with the wind, and his tiger patterned top seemed to glow slightly with the sun rays that managed to get past some of the ruined buildings. He found himself with all the gear he would have normally, which was plentiful as he stocked up prior to the exams a while back. At least he didn't go in unprepared, despite the bizarre nature of the circumstances.

It wasn't long before he spotted one other person by themselves in this ransacked area, and he knew they would fight. I mattered not where they came from, all that seemed to matter was that they fight until one cannot fight anymore. It didn't matter that he was simply a Chuunin. His foe could be a Genin or a Kage, he would give it all he had.

A cursory glance at his opponent revealed little, but what he saw made him wary. Her eyes were pretty much white with no pupils, a sign of one of Konohagakure's premier clans: the Hyuuga. Tales of the Hyuuga and the Uchiha were quite well known, as were their general abilities... but Ujiyasu didn't get comfortable with just stories and legends. There is usually more to shinobi than just the obvious, and he was sure his opponent would have more than the Hyuuga's Kekkei Genkai on hand.

He wasn't without a few tricks of his own.

"Guess we'll be fighting. Fate is a little melodramatic to send just two people in some ruins... but here's as good a place as any I suppose."

A small quip belied how serious Ujiyasu took this, as he adopted a readying stance, waiting for his opponent.

"Tch. How cute."

Needless to say the man before her didn't look to be all that impressive. Sure he had quite the impressive build, but she had seen better. To her, at this moment, he was nothing more than a mediocre shinobi who would soon find out that this world had no use for mediocrity. To survive you had to become better and continue to soar higher and higher. The only people who made an impact in this world were those who had the power to be considered a legend.

Thankfully the terrain where the two of them were was riddled with weapons. Perhaps not the most conventional weaponry, and certainly a type that the man before her couldn't use. Veins pulsed at her temples as they began to protrude while her eyes sharpened and everything around her could be seen¹. Ever building, every 'weapon', every area that she could use to her advantage. But more importantly she could see him.

Kohana would watch him even though she wasn't staring straight at him while she moved to her side where one of the monstrous pieces of rubble from the ruined buildings lied. In one swift motion she would pick the chunk of rock up (roughly SUV in size) as chakra poured into her hands, up her arms, and based itself in her shoulders primarily while chakra flared down her spin and into her legs for support. Still within that fluid motion, she would let the rubble go flying through the air.² In reality--it was hurdling towards her opponent like an over sized rocket with enough power to go 50 meters, so the gap between them was nothing

She wasn't going to hold back ANY of her power.

With this vision, the Hyuuga can see through solid objects, and can use a degree of telescopic sight up to a maximum standard distance of fifty meters. However, by holding a single seal (tiger), the user may enter a "focused" state and increase their range up to a maximum of five kilometers; they must remain still during this enhanced sight, and due to their attention (and sight) being well beyond their immediate surroundings, are quite vulnerable to assaults. Finally, one of the greatest uses of the Byakugan is the ability to see chakra, chakra flow as well as the chakra circulation system inside the body with great detail. It is from this particular ability that they are able to employ their ultimate attack style - the Gentle Fist.

[Krethean]

Right off the bat, Ujiyasu's foe immediately kicked off the proceedings by smoothly grabbing, lifting and then throwing a fairly large chunk of rubble at the Kusa Chuunin. The sheer strength of the woman before him did astound him, and it spoke volumes about the style of fighting she would employ. From this, Ujiyasu began to plan.

Despite the feat of strength demonstrated, it was a simple throw, and the distance between the two of them was more than enough to react to. With this, Ujiyasu bolted to the right at full speed, performing a string of handseals as quickly as possible. The debris smashed into the ground behind him a fair ways away, a sure testament to the might his foe possessed.

I know Lady Kusakage is capable of similar feats of strength... and that is because of her ability to use her chakra with such control. Control very few would ever hope to achieve.

A Hyuuga and someone who can use their chakra to drastically elevate their might. In the end, it meant that other than hurling large objects at him, there wasn't a whole lot she could do from this distance, which sat quite well with him.

With the last handseal, the air chilled rapidly near him, as a clone made from the freezing moisture in the air next to Ujiyasu took form. With an extra pair of hands, the Kusa Shinobi performed some more handseals alongside his clone. If things go well enough, they can neutralise her quickly and move on. There's no need to make this fight last any longer than necessary, especially against an opponent that rapidly began to show that she would be a major threat if he slipped up.

After all, hurling rocks wasn't the best she could do. Right?

Ujiyasu: Yuki Bunshin no Jutsu (Ice Clone Technique)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 5
Chakra Consumption: High (per clone)

Yuki Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Ice Element. After performing a set of handseals, the user creates a perfect clone of themselves made of ice. Unlike a normal Bunshin, the Yuki Bunshin has the ability to interact more with the environment due to it having physical substance. This allows the clone to carry out limited attacks on its target. The range of the clone is limited however, as it cannot travel very far from the original body. If the Yuki Bunshin is injured, the clone will explode in a mass of ice spikes that launch out up to 1 meter in every direction.

Note: This clone has a High x2 cap of chakra. It is limited to Ice-based jutsu and elementary chakra channeling, including simple abilities like water walking and tree climbing, but not more advanced techniques such as Hien.

[~Kohana <3]

Kohana didn't stay idle. The chunk of debris was only a testament to what she could do as well as a distraction for her to gauge the man before her. As he moved, she moved. Though he weaved through hand seals, she didn't need anything of the sort. Though in those few split moments her eyes saw chakra swell within him and into the air, cooling it, and bringing forth a clone made of pure ice. A Hyouton user, presumably who has a background in Fuuton and Suiton.

Cute, but not enough to help him.

With a grunt the Hyuuga shoved her hands into the ground where the cracked cement met one of the more intact buildings the moment the clone finished appearing. Chakra seemed to scream from her very being as more and more built up and spread through her being. Like before she would lift something usually inhumanely impossible by most peoples standards. Of course, she was different than most people. Using every ounce of her strength, Kohana ripped out one of the larger buildings that surrounded them--it being 30 meters high and about 10 meters across.

In that instant it was let go, just like the rubble from earlier. Instead of something so easy to dodge coming at him, this time Kohana had sent an entire building at him. The likely hood that he could dodge something of this caliber was very slim--however she had been surprised before by other shinobi in this world. So, to exploit the the back, and essentially, the blind part of the building, Kohana would jump onto it. Not any jump, but one only her refined chakra could produce in a single burst to catch up with the velocity that the building had been thrown at.

That is where she would wait, clinging to the side of the building where the boy couldn't see. In fact, it was extremely likely he couldn't see much behind the barreling building so her whereabouts would have been virtually unknown anyways. All she had to do was wait to here the silence after the fall and perhaps the after effect of screams or crunching of bones. If the man managed to escape?

Needless to say she would have a leg up on him in more ways than one...

  Yet another versatile aspect of the Medic's Chakura no Iko style is their ability to produce fine amounts of chakra, at once, for destructive reasons. In this case, the medic sends a healthy wave of chakra at their feet, initiating an explosion that allows them an impressive forward leap (up to twenty-five meters fifty). As they land, another chakra burst serves to cushion their landing, as the area around is slightly destroyed (in a five meter radius) by the sudden displacement of one's chakra to soften the landing.

If something's amiss, lemme know and we can discuss things. Most of the day I had been pretty tired when I was making this, and my PC gave me the shits all day, so I ended up retyping the post a lot.

Ujiyasu needed very little time to prepare, and as the water from nearby veins in the ruined buildings rose and formed into more copies of the Chuunin, the four of them took off about ten metres to the left a bit of distance between them and the edges of the structure, which would get slightly further away as it approached the Ujiyasus due to the direction his foe threw the construct. The building towered well above everything else barring other similar sized buildings as it cruised through the air.

Going from the folklore of the Hyuuga, Ujiyasu knew there was no point at all in trying to conceal his movements, as she would see everything he did. Sometimes being in plain sight can deceive the enemy more than simply hiding.

Ujiyasu and his Water Clones looked around the area, having noticed that the Hyuuga had vanished from where she threw the construct. While his first thought was that she hid amongst the other buildings, a perfectly viable approach given her unique blood and Doujutsu, he thought back to the abilities she displayed: she possessed abilities that would serve her extremely well in close combat. Given that the building she hurled at Ujiyasu was significant in size vertically, it was just as possible that she could be using that building as a means to close the distance, though how he didn't know. Yet.

The Ice Clone finished its own seals not long after the Chuunin created the Water Clones. A pulse of Hyouton Chakra washed over the area around the duplicate in a thirty metre radius and instantly froze various objects and the ground itself. Buildings, the debris around the Ujiyasus, the very dirt on the ground... all frozen solid, and much harder to obtain any form of traction, even with the rudimentary movement skills taught at the academy. Knowing this, with a quick seal, both Ujiyasu and his Ice Clone focused their chakra onto their feet, permitting them freedom of movement on the solid, slippery and the much colder terrain. A justu that he had learned as a user of Hyouton.

Pleased that the field had now adjusted slightly in his favour, Ujiyasu and each clone looked around in all directions, keeping their eyes on and around the thrown structure just as much as they are watching the walls, the varying sizes of stone and wooden fragments and rooftops, covering each other's blind spot when possible. While he lacked the Hyuuga's visual omniscience, having multiple pairs of eyes and ears, along with a form of mental linking served as a more crude way of scouting. Fatigue began to wear on him, but he had done what he wanted. Hand in his satchel, Ujiyasu prepared himself for a likely assault.

After all, being in the open can be as deceptive as being in the shadows.

Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 3
Chakra Consumption: Mid per clone.
Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique that utilizes water to create a Bunshin clone. Unlike a normal Bunshin, the Mizu Bunshin has the ability to interact more with the environment due to it having physical substance. This allows the clone to carry out limited attacks on its target. The range of the clone is limited however, it cannot travel very far from the original body. If the Mizu Bunshin is injured, the clone will usually revert back into its natural water state.

Note: This clone has x2 High cap of chakra. These clones are limited to water-based jutsu and elementary chakra channeling. This includes simple abilities like water walking and tree climbing but not more advances channeling techniques such as Hien.

Kohrisuberi (Ice Sliding)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary

Chakra Consumption: Mid, Low (upkeep)

Kohrisuberi is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Ice Element. After performing a single handseal, the user's chakra is focused onto the bottoms of their feet, allowing them to walk upon the surface of ice with ease. This eliminates the danger of slipping, and even allows them to increase their speed by literally skating across frozen surfaces.

Note: Speed increase is 1.5x the rate of normal movement.

Kyuusoku Touketsu is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Ice Element. After performing a string of handseals, the user sends out a burst of chakra that flash freezes the terrain around them for up to 30 meters. Because of the unnatural coldness of the ice, it will not be effected by local temperatures unless they are in extremes, such as the desert during the day.

Note: This jutsu does not create any new terrain of any kind but rather freezes whatever inorganic material is nearby. Some terrain types (lava, heated water, unnatural terrain) cannot be frozen in this way.

[~Kohana <3]

Kohana didn’t miss a beat. Her Byakugan pulsed and everything remained quite clear even as the building went hurdling towards her opponent. Even though the building wasn’t stationary in the air and would have surely knocked him, his ice clone, or the two gathered water clones, it somehow didn’t. But that was fine. She wouldn’t allow any more time to be given for any little surprises he could conjure. Whether it be with ice, water, or even wind. As Hokage she wanted to end this either now, or soon.

Of course to her, everything passed so quickly yet so slowly at the same time. She could take in a million details of all her surroundings in a passing second. This was the case right here and right now. Just as the man and his clones would dodge, she would leap from the building as they gathered together to try and cover all blind spots. That was cute, and smart, but it didn’t matter. Even the ground had chakra spread across it in a quick attempt to freeze the landscape to better his chances. Again, smart, but ineffective.

The Hyuuga didn’t aim for the man and his clones, but the general area close to them. In that moment that they dodged and ice spread, while she jumped from the hurdling building, she would bring her leg up into the air in order to pile drive her foot into the frozen ground. Loud cracks were heard and the ground erupted as if an earthquake had hit. Within a 40 meter radius the ground splintered and became rubble—large chunks jutted up from the ground while others were sent flying into the air only to rain back down. Everything would be utterly destroyed.

Including the freeze he had placed along the land. It would all be cracked and done away with. Unless he and his clones could escape a 40 meter radius in a few split seconds then they were done for. Or at least she knew his clones would disperse from any impact. He on the other hand? Regardless of the outcome she would handle it the quickest way possible. From the crater she was in from the impact, she removed the weights around her ankles, and while rubble still fell and the ground settled she cast only a few seals in wait.

Come out, come out wherever you are…
