[Sayomi]

I'll show him just how strong I am

"Masa`kun..."

The blond whispered silently under her breath. Masumi's eyes leveled with his own, burning holes into Hiromasa's figure. Her hand twitched as she could almost feel the form of her Ninjato hilt within her palm. Almost instinctively Masumil bit her lip as the proverbial gunshot of war was initiated. With the judge giving his official start both Masumi hands worked in conjunction-her left drawing the ninjato as her right quickly spun a kunai around her finger, throwing it straight at her opponent.

The kunai was aimed right at his midsection, Masumi's sword hand already held horizontally as she circled around him slowly, her legs would follow behind the other in a side stepping motion. A quiet, quaint breeze rolled by, the girl with windswept hair waving her blade like that of an oceans tides. She was poised and ready for action...

!

His eyes narrowed as the kunai left her hand, body blurring with speed almost beyond comprehension in reaction to her attack. He had to cancel his planned response, instead using his gathered chakra to facilitate the blazing movement, blitzing forward in a furious flurry of action, side-stepping the kunai in mid-shunshin. He moved artfully, well versed with the flickering jutsu, wasting neither motion nor time. Nigh a breath had passed and he was nine meters closer to Masumi, her kunai sailing harmlessly behind him.

With a twist and a grunt he loosed his own kunai at her chest, its white-tail flapping in the wind. The downward slope of its trajectory would cause it to land roughly five meters behind Masumi. As the projectile exploded from his palm he clapped his hands, fingers twisting in a very brief sealing array as his doton natured chakra gave birth to five earth-based clones of himself. He stayed alert, his intent only to probe his foe to gauge her skill. The quintent burst from the ground to the front of him, forming a makeshift wall of bodies, each with matching grins.

Without verbal warning the clones attacked, diving at their foe with reckless abandon as Hiromasa, the ninjutsu specialist that he was, began anew a set of seals, Doton chakra spread wide throughout the earth...

Shunshin. 1/11
Shimmering Ficker

Deido Bunshin (Earth-Mud Clone)
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Doton Ninjutsu
Range: See special!
Special: Although defeated by a single attack, the clones have the ability to explode their essence in a 5 meter radius, spreading sticky, constricting mud everywhere. Those affected will have their movement inhibited, suffering from reduced speeds and reaction. When re-learned, the user increases the number of clones they can make by 5; this maxes out when the user reaches 50 clones.
Description: A simple elemental clone technique, this let’s the user create a default number of five mud based clones for his command. Coming forth from an earth or mud source, the clones are basic and meant primarily for distraction and restriction. Its mud, sticky and constricting, can slow d own an opponent’s limbs, especially when many pole upon the user at once.
Domain: Doton. Earth Dominion 'C'.

Masumi's arm went up to block the kunai, but inexperience had taken grip of her as she used her Hydration technique to hopefully nullify the tagged kunai, but to her dismay it had not yet exploded. With a thud it lodged itself into her shoulder, a grunt of pain escaping her as she quickly solidified her arm. Luckily the tag was damp and would not explode. Liquefying her injured shoulder the kunai would fall out and onto the ground beneath her feet.

"Dammit!"

Reaching back she grabbed the smoke bomb tucked in her holster, with a flick of her arm she released it before the clones could reach her. An obscured veil would stretch out, shielding her from view. Jumping back she fought through the pain to utilize a jutsu her hands dancing as she inhaled and expelled a large volume of water from her mouth. The water birthed would be infused with her special jelly, so that it retained acidic properties, thanks to Gisan.

The water would crash down upon the soiled terrain, like that of a ginormous tsunami, drowning all in it's path as it would flood the entire stage, a sea of acid would be the new playing ground. Masumi would use this time to merge with the created body of water, her body turning into a pure liquid state as she become one with it.

"I gotta be much smarter..."

Masumi thought as she contemplated her next move. Meanwhile a single touch of the cursed waters would prove dangerously fatal to both Hiromasa and his clones.

Ultimate Hydration Technique (Suika no Jutsu)Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Supplementary / Clan Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Special: Initial liquefaction lasts a single turn by default. All Hozuki are impervious to non-elemental physical strikes, but are susceptible to Raiton and Hyouton - lightning attacks place on them are raised by a single rank, and when struck by it, they are unable to liquefy properly, and finally, ice jutsu have twice the freezing capabilities when coming in contact with the Hozuki. Ranks 'D' and 'C' represent the ability to liquefy one and two limbs at a time respectively (be it arms or legs); 'B' rank represents torso; 'A' rank represents head liquidation; 'S' rank allows the user to liquefy all together any time they want. Finally, Hozuki are made of water, so they can use themselves as a base for all suiton based jutsu. Hydration rank also determines rank/level of suiton the Hozuki can birth from their body.
Description: The core technique behind the bloodlimit and the door to stronger, more powerful attacks, this jutsu allows the Hozuki to totally transform their body into a condensed state of water, so dense that the user can withstand even the roughest of physical attacks, yet so malleable that on a whim, they can also decompose into mere puddles. From a single hair to the skin and muscles, everything can be liquefied and solidified, be it to evade an enemy's attack during a short range battle, to infiltrate a structure, or to launch a surprise attack from a liquefied state Maintaining this form requires that the clan member keep themseves constantly hydrated, but in this form the can also draw upon and control nearby water by immersing and merging amongst the liquid. And best of all - by liquefying their whole body at will, it makes it impossible for the Hozuki to receive damage from physical attacks. When the user passes out, they turn into a jelly-like, dormant state until consciousness is regained.
Domain: Hozuki.

* Gisan-Hisan (Acid War)
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Clan Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Special: Degree and damage of poison acid depends on highest rank known. Corrosiveness depends on rank:

o D ~ Skin
o C ~ Earth & Elements
o B ~ Wood
o A ~ Rock
o S ~ Steel

Description: Once the Hozuki begin to understand their blood and how to control it, they learn to combine their ninjutsu powers in order to give their 'jelly' special properties. In this case, the Hozuki's very essence transforms into an acidic poison, corrosive on contact and highly invasive upon sensing foreign bodies. The best part about it all is that the Hozuki's color does not change one bit, giving no indication that they are wielding cursed waters. When combined with other clan techniques, this essence alteration can be highly effective for combat.
Domain: Hozuki. Must know 'Hydration' for rank being learned.

Baku Suishouha (Bursting Water Collision Waves)
Rank: B
Type: Offensive / Suiton Ninjutsu
Range: 0 - 40 meters
Special: The waves are delivered with full force, power and speed for the first turn, and then flood an area twice the wave's range. When the user is ‘surfing’ the waves, their movement speed temporarily doubles.
Description: Baku Suishouha is an offensive ninjutsu technique utilizing Suiton. After forming the needed handseals, the user will take a deep breath and appear to expel water from their mouth or gullet. This will then expand into a large volume of water, propelled forwards at high speeds, resulting in powerful initial blasting damage, as well as plenty of water to flood a small village, break down large barriers, or put out large fires. Lastly, if the user wishes, they can push a bit of additional chakra into their feel so that they can essentially walk along the water and even ride it as if they were surfing.
Domain: Suiton.

Pack#1 Smoke Grenade
Rank: C
Type: Tool / Area of Effect
Range: 0 - 10 meters
Description: This explodable comes in the form of a long, skinny cylinder, no more than a few inches long. At the top lies a pin which, when pulled, activates the grenade's internal components. Within seconds, thick, dark smoke begins to spew from the cylinder, covering a wide area and leaving all those nearby blinded and gagging.

[Mamushi]

Water doesn't flood the arena till the second turn. You're just barreling at me right now. And, for future reference... a wet tag can still explode. It's the sealing array on the tag that makes it blow up, not the paper itself.

[/i] She disappeared into the water almost the moment he saw her, remembering then that she was a Hozuki.

His bunshin were swallowed by the water - he saw then that it was acidic - before Gaia swallowed him, granting temporary protection from the suiton jutsu above. He moved forward as quickly as he could, understanding the mechanics of the technique used against him. The wave would travel forward for roughly forty meters before the water finally settled and spread throughout the arena. He merely had to reach topside before then, but travel far enough forward to arrive behind where Masumi had initiated her jutsu.

He climbed from the earth upon dry land, though it wouldn't remain dry for long. I've got just the thing...

Suiton - Baku Suishouha!

He summoned his own wave, spewing a tidal wave of water from his gullet. He aimed in the general direction Masumi's wave had traveled, riding it high above the acidic waters. He rode it in the manner of a surfer, a second jutsu following the first...

Goshokuzame!

Five beams of chakra fell from his fingers into the water, growing into sharks. Find her and eat her. His chakra would keep him afloat and safe from the deadly depths below.

Goshokuzame (Five Sharks Eating Skill)
Rank: B
Type: Offensive / Suiton Ninjutsu
Range: See special!
Special: Sharks move at double that of its victims, unless the opponents carry a particular bloodline that favors water/underwater life. Due to the pressure of the attacks, they can only be destroyed by ‘A’ ranked attacks and above. Sharks can travel wherever there is water, and exist until they are defeated or run out of water. The user cannot create more batches of sharks until the original five are defeated. The sharks do not distinguish between friend or foe. Requires a water source.
Description: Goshokuzame is a ninjutsu technique utilizing the power of Suiton, and although slightly unconventional due to its environmental prerequisites, nonetheless powerful and deadly. After the user forms the needed hand seals, they will place their hands on the surface of the water in order to transfer their chakra. From here, a shark of condensed water will emerge from each of the user’s fingertips, ordered only for one thing – to attack, maim and kill all opponents who reside in the water below.
Domain: Suiton.

Dochuu Eigyo (Underground Fish Projection)

After a few short seals, the user merely sinks below, and can remain there for a small amount of time.
Domain: Doton. Earth Dominion 'C'. Must know 'Double Suicide Decapitation'

I don't know if acid water can eat through normal water. Technically, that shit eats through the ground too.

[Sayomi]

Masumi had lost Hiromasa in her line of site, but she could hear the roar of another massive wave forming behind her. Stealthily she remained hidden within her cursed waters as her own birthed tsunami brushed against the walls of their arena. The water pushed and pulled as the ebb and flow came to a calm still.

Before the other wave now collided with her own jutsu, Hiromasa used another jutsu, five sharks forming an circling around the battlefield. The combined birthed waters would play to her strengths and the sharks would be left without a meal as she was fully concealed. 'What should I do in this situation?'

She waited merged with the waters allowing her vicious acidic jelly to combine with the entire body of water. The water would no longer be safe for Hiromasa, as an acidic touch would began to take over the waters. She'd try a stealth attack, hastily she moved around the perimeter in secrecy and from her hand flew a kunai, a white tag flapping behind it as she'd ignite it once it reach an appropriate range.

Pack#2 Exploding Note
Rank: C
Type: Tool / Area of Effect
Range: 0 - 10 meters
Special: 10 per pack

Its execution is simple - the ninja can attach the note to another object such as a kunai or log, and upon activation, the note is set and begins a slow countdown burn, which eventually results in a large explosion.

He was standing above the water, chakra keeping him afloat and free of harm. His sharks scoured the water, but found nothing. Then, thirty meters away, a hand slipped from the water and through a kunai. He could not make out what it was from such a distance, but he knew to move - and he did, running twenty meters to the side.

He considered his options - the water was acidic, Masumi could turn into water and evade his sharks, and he only knew Suiton and Doton jutsu...
