Gene vs Enma

Simply put, the arena is a large expanse of earth that seemingly expands infinitely in all directions. Pieces of Jagged rocks broken trees lay around the entire area for various uses. Combatants start 25 meters from one another.

Thinking. . .

Was all as I had done, it was all that I could do as I waited for my opponent to announce his or herself into the arena. Adorning a simple long sleeved T-shirt and blue pants, I was quite comfortable and content with what I had been wearing, despite being barefooted. My left hand rested deep within the confines of my left pocket, namely grasping the surface of my clay, but not yet molding, there was no need to without an opponent present. My respective hand was hoisted to my mouth, calmly biting the nail of my thumb, anxious to meet my opponent.

"Hopefully I won't lose, I don't like losing much.

A young shinobi had stepped into the center of the terrain, there was nothing but earth for miles as the young male could see. He had eventually came into a close approximation of the other who stood there, only 25 meters away from him. His scarlet eyes had stared the man down, showing him that he wasn't afraid of anything that the man could through at him. He inhaled deeply through his nose, and exhales back through it. Filling his lungs even deeper with fresh air than the normal average person. This breathing exercise would help him relax. He wore an all black kimono, and had his chest part open, with the hilt of his kodachi able to be seen from the inside of it.

Finally my opponent decided to show themselves, and to be brutally honest, I wasn't impressed at the time. He was dressed in a kimono as if to be a noble warrior of sorts, not that I had anything against nobles, it was merely a distaste in the style and choice of clothing itself. Nevertheless, a fierce battle would ensue, I myself taking initial action as my hand mouth began to savagely chew upon the constructs of clay within my pockets. It only took roughly 1-2 seconds for me to begin molding and fully complete my creations, my hand withdrew itself from my pocket, but I wasn't about to release my children just then. Instead, I'd wait, watch my opponents actions keenly, thinking appropriately.

Kibaku Iritsuku (Clay Infusion Point) ⁶²⁵
Rank: D, C, B, A,[ S ]
Type: Passive / Special Bloodline Technique / Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Chakra: --
Special: Determines the speed at which the Kibaku-Nendo creates their explosive clay. When attempting to mold a creation of clay ranked higher than the user's highest rank in this technique, a creation time penalty is incurred in the form of a single turn for every rank the creation is above the user's highest 'Clay Infusion Point'.

'D' - 3 turns
'C' - 2 turns
'B' - 1 turn
'A' - Half of a turn
'S' - 1/4th of a turn

Description: Though it is crucial the clan member awakens their hand-mouth in order to even have a shot at mastering the Kibaku-Nendo clan techniques, with time and practice, they can get faster and faster at making their explosions, regardless of the clay's size, shape, or rank of explosion. In the end, once the mouth grows comfortable chewing on a certain piece of ranked clay, it will surely create the next one in less time!
Domain: Kibaku-Nendo. Kouguchi Bakuha.

He had kept his eye upon his target, not sure of what he was capable of or what he could possibly do, he just had to trust his instincts. He had known if he wanted to be able to do any kind of damage at all, he would have to get in close the strike. Noticing that his opponent didn't try to close the distance at all probably meant he was comfortable with it, meaning he could be a long range fighter. When he had first arrived, he noticed that the entire area was just an open field, with no where to run. All these thoughts had flown through his head in an instant. He had to close the distance as fast as he possibly could. Quickly, he spread his legs, crouching slightly, flickering away in a burst of speed, covering the twenty meters. He had appeared five meters away from his, trying to draw his attention, and cause him to act as he would begin to draw his blade out.

Shunpo (Flashing Light Steps)
Rank: D.^2/3
Type: Supplementary / Taijutsu / High-Speed Movement
Range: 0 - 10 meters.
Stamina: Low.
Special: Shunpo is much like Shunshin, a forward-moving high-speed technique that transports the user across a short space in the blink of an eye. When used, the user will rush almost instantly to wherever they are facing. The user can Shunpo once per thread, plus once more each time retrained. One cannot attack or perform techniques during Shunpo.
Description: Shunpo, a Taijutsu master's response to the Body Flicker Technique, relies solely on the user's ability to harness their inner ki and gain enough stamina to withstand the sudden strain imposed on one's legs. However, once properly trained, the Taijutsu Type will find their legs moving at speeds unknown to common man, to the point most would make the foolish mistake of assuming one is using Shunshin. However, unlike that chakra inspired run, Shunpo is pure stamina and movement skill, allowing for tighter, quicker, and more reactionary movements essential for someone that relies on movement. Although Shunpo itself moves in a single line, its many variations is what makes it so lethal.
Domain: Shunpo - Universal Taijutsu.
