Masuyo's 'lusterless leg-kick' lacked power and vitality which only allowed it to fulfill and perform its true intentions - a feinted kick. Using a 'mock' action coupled with the speeds provided by Senjutsu would've undoubtedly caught any normal shinobi completely off guard, however, AU-2 obviously failed to fall within that category.

Nevertheless, instead of following through with the suspected low kick, it elevated within the blink of an eye and snapped forward completely in an attempt to strike the side of AU-2's head. Whether or not Masuyo's attack actually landed or not, it wouldn't have prevented his body from being helplessly knocked-back from an outstandingly powerful palm-strike to the chest.

While Masuyo's thick bear-like skin protected him against even the more advanced & powerful taijutsu attacks, AU-2's power registered on an entirely different level, a level that Masuyo could never hope to reach without the aide of Sage mode. Knowing what he'd been capable of with just his natural strength alone, admittedly, scared Masuyo, however, fear is what kept him going even in the face of certain death. Masuyo's body crashed against the floor with enough concussive force that it caused the ground to break and split as he slid across its surface.

Coming to a slow stop, he managed to fight through the throbbing pain and lifted himself up onto both feet in tandem with wiping away trickles of spat up blood from around his mouth. The way he spoke of Masuyo's only sister infuriated him and did nothing but cause his hatred to fester and ripen to an unimaginable scale.

"I have made empty promises before, but if there is one that I will see to the ever end, its making sure I watch the very last breath you breathe escape your body. . ."

"Even if it means using up my own!!!"

"You're going to pay for your crimes one way or another!!!"

Swiftly, Masuyo reached into one of his handy ninja packs and retrieved two smoke grenades with both hands. He tossed one 5 meters forward towards AU-2 while (in tandem) dropping the other at his feet, both of which exploded into a rapidly spreading smoke, a smoke that only the byakugan could effectively see through and penetrate. With that, the moment Masuyo's hands were free (once the smoke fully obscured them), they came together and formed a single hand signature, one that beckoned forth a trio of clones (front, left, and right, all facing away from Masuyo), all spawned with the same equipment.

Each clone individually, yet simultaneously, reached for and retrieved a single exploding note which they think placed on their chest beneath their shirt. During that time, a second hand sign had been made, bringing forth a special clone (5 meters from AU-2's last known location), one that carried explosive properties with it.

Finally the smoke cleared, and by that time, it'd been AU-2's move.

Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique)
Rank: B - B - B [300 Exp]
Type: Supplementary.
Range: 0 - 5 meters.
Handseals: 1.
Chakra: Halves the user's chakra.
Special: When first learned, a single Shadow Clone can be produced. Each time re-learned, one additional clone can be made, for a maximum of 5. Please remember that regardless of the amount of clones made, the chakra is still divided evenly amongst all bodies. However, when a clone is defeated or chooses to disappear, whatever remaining chakra within their bodies, as well as their knowledge, returns to the user. The only exception is 'Bunshin Bakuha', which sacrifices the chakra return for a grand explosion. This technique can only be learned by Jounin ranked shinobi; no exceptions!
Description: Kage Bunshin is an advanced, forbidden Ninjutsu technique, which grants the user the ability to create a tangible clone. The normal Bunshin technique creates a copy of the ninja that lacks any substance. However, Kage Bunshin distributes the ninja's chakra evenly among the clones and creates a real copy with form and substance, to the point the clone can utilize any jutsu the original ninja knows, and spawns with any equipment the user has one them at the time of the summoning. When the clone finally disperses, any new knowledge it has gained is passed back to the original ninja and any additional clones.
Domain: Universal Ninjutsu.

Bunshin Bakuha (Shadow Clone Explosion)
Rank: A
Type: Offensive.
Range: 5 meter explosion.
Handseals: 1.
Chakra: Halves the user's chakra (this chakra is lost).
Special: This technique can only detonate one clone at any given time. Likewise, it forfeits the knowledge\chakra one would naturally gain when their clone is destroyed.
Description: A follow up technique to the regular Kage Bunshin, Bunshin Bakuha is an advanced ninjutsu technique utilized by highly skilled and ranked shinobi in order for them to detonate a regular Shadow Clone at impressive levels. Once a normal Kage Bunshin is created, the user can detonate the clone at any time to form a very large explosion. The entire amount of chakra left within the clone forms the energy behind the blast, and although it lacks fiery properties, the sudden blast and subsequent implosion/explosion phase is enough to blast through rock easily, leaving serious dents in steel/metal creations
Domain: Kage Bunshin.

A strong sense of uneasiness amassed inside both Masuyo's mind and body as the bubble ascended to extraordinary heights, leaving behind the lower platform and soon realizing that so much more laid above. It all had been overly massive, literally, everything! Unfortunately sight-seeing hadn't squeezed itself into Masuyo's never ending quest to restore his broken family and take back the village he once referred to as his home. Nevertheless, once he reached the higher platform, which could've only be described as a loading dock seemingly for airships, the seemingly mindless man that carried the fabled soaring short swords eased into plain view - just barely. Roughly 50 meters away, he continued to move with considerable speeds.

"There you are."

Mumbling to himself in a low tone just as the 'workers' of the dock swarmed Masuyo, conglomerating in the center of the only path. Blocked with limited options to get through the remarkably large crowd of 'workers', Masuyo felt as though he already knew the easiest and most effective way to get through the group. . .

And eventually.

The swords.

Full well knowing that turning back literally became an impossibility, he wanted, no, he needed to push forward if he even dared save anyone or anything. Failure hadn't been an option, not then. Eyebrows descended in anger, Masuyo's hands merged together and formed a single hand--signature before using a massive amount of chakra. While overly taxing to the standard ninja, Masuyo's network carried unbelievable amounts of Chakra, one of which he'd use to the fullest to seize whatever he wanted.

No more than a moment later than the formation of his hand-seal, had a mountain of clones (40) fell upon the entire group from a exceptionally large plume of smoke. Outnumbered by ten, Masuyo easily held the advantage in terms of number which only added to his 'distraction' considering that the workers would've been the unfortunate ones to deal with them all - one by one.

As they'd fall, launching a variety of aerial attacks until they landed, generalized taijutsu allowed them to fully engage the amassed worker's in full. Unable to succumb to the loss of time, Masuyo's increase strength and speed (coupled with a tensed crouch), launched him in an up-forward manner just over (about a 3 meters above arm reach) the entire group.

Landing, he never looked back. Instead, he rushed forward to apprehend the man that nearly sealed not only his own fate, but the others as well.

"You wont get away!"

Presuming that everything proceeded according to plan, Masuyo's undeniable speeds would've easily reduced that 50 meter gap into 10 in second(s).

Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Multiple ShadowClone Technique

Rank: S - S - S - S [1,200 Exp]
Type: Supplementary.
Range: -
Handseals: 1.
Chakra: Massive
Special: When first learned, 10 Shadow Clones can be produced. Each time re-learned, 10 additional clones can be made, for a maximum of 100. Please remember that regardless of the amount of clones made, the chakra remaining within the user is still divided evenly amongst all bodies! Due to the excessive amount of clones, chakra cannot be returned to the user, and these Kage Bunshin are unable to be detonated.
Description: Tajuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu is an advanced variation of the Kage Bunshin Ninjutsu technique, reserved only for those seriously in tune with their chakra networks. Despite the ban it has earned over the toll this jutsu takes on a shinobi's chakra network, it has nt stopped many Jounin level ninja from learning the technique. Instead of creating several clones, several hundred clones are created. Like normal Kage Bunshin a ninja's chakra is split evenly among the clones when created. Like the regular Shadow Clones, the clones themselves can utilize any jutsu the original ninja knows. When the clones finally disperse, any new knowledge they have gained is passed back to the original ninja and to any additional clones.
Domain: Kage Bunshin.

No more than a few moments after the seemingly dead man spoke in extremely sporadic tones and paces, Masuyo grew unusually interested. Both eyes widened as he nonchalantly identified not only Masuyo, but his closest relatives in addition to the status' of their well being. His sister and -apparently- Kodai, were both very much alive, considering that Masuyo himself confirmed his brother's - Yuu Aimery Kekkai- death. Having, admittedly, located his sister circumstantially, she had indeed been alive albeit under AU-2's control. The more he continued to dwell upon the subject, the more he realized that all of the incidents and phenomenon that surrounded the Kekkai and Tenzo family couldn't have all been coincidence.

The deeper he dug into the conspiracies that surrounded their family, the meaning and purpose behind it all only managed to incessantly eluded him. At that particular moment, the only man that he needed to kill to reset the peace within Amegakure -even if momentarily- had been none other than AU-2.

"The creator of him? AND the creator of the torture labs? You even know of my daughter which is impossible. You know what, save what breath you have left, you won't need it for much longer. . ."

His anger gradually returned as the very man who turned a great many innocent lives into a living hell by failing to contain and control his experiments and abominations. With each fleeting second that Masuyo remained inside of his home while knowing and understanding its conditions as well as its psuedo-leader, he grew impatient - more than ever. Truth be told, he just wanted his entire family to be left alone.

"Because after the pain that you and your experiments caused my family, I've collected more than enough willpower to. . .

Slaughter you all!"

Dispersing one of his left-behind clones, the Senjutsu chakra that it stored instantly transferred itself back into Masuyo's own network, stronger and more powerful than before. The transformation tripled the capacity and potency of his chakra, so much so that fire-like licks of nature chakra swirled around him as it seeped out of his body itself, aimlessly whipping at the openness of air. With only 12 meters of space separating him from Dr. Kaida, revenge never seemed so close.

Amegakure no Sato.

They finally made it.

Approaching the white like that greeted them at the end of the tunnel, Masuyo's forearm raised up above his eyes to shield them. Continuing forward, the light soon faded and the destruction thrust itself into plain view, forcing Masuyo as well as those who followed him to accept that his - their village had been brought down to it's knees. Lowering his arm back down to his waist, his eyes looked around, darting from one area of the village to another. Overwhelmed with emotions as he took in the lay of the land and remembered alley's and streets where he played with friends and family, a single tear rolled down his face. Chuckling as memories came pouring in one after another, his tears only intensified.

"We're here, we're finally home Sis. I know this isn't it, but I can't stop the tears from coming out. I will find you, I promise. Just give us more time - please. "

Closing his eyes, catching his breath, and re-obtaining his composure, the tears stopped after he wiped them away with his thumb. As if on cue, rain plummeted from the sky above, drenching everything that existed within its influence. Buildings and homes were reduced to piles of rubble and debris, however, Masuyo still managed to recognize the village, and as a result, knew exactly where the main tower was located.

Considering the tower to be the most ideal place for AU-2 to hideout, Masuyo decided that they'd head in that direction. Masuyo hadn't doubted the others, but, he himself readied to place his life on the line to free his home of AU-2 grasp. He had no other choice. . .

Not if he wanted to provide a better life for his recently conceived daughter.
