If my opponent believed my jump was of a great magnitude, well, in short he was completely wrong. It didn't -doesn't- take much to get off the ground tu turn 180^o, if anything the peak of my jump reached a maximum of 1 foot. Nonetheless I'd already been one with the ground the moment my opponent halted from his body flicker. With his back given to me, my kunai loose, and my chakra swelled -which released the Gate of opening- throughout my body as my opponents body began to wind for what seemed to be a spiraling movement. With his spin in the process an orb of chakra expelled around him like a bubble, expanding at a quick pace, but not quicker than my increased speed coupled with a defensive shunpo. Given that shunpo was pure physicla exertion, it wouldn't cripple its usage or my ability to unlock the celestial gates. Mixing both ninjutsu and taijutsu was truly a devastating tactic.

By the time the Hyuuga's rortation edge breached a 1 meter theshold, I'd already took a huge step back, that is to say in the form of a retreating shunpo, allowing me to increase that space between us to 13 meters in total. He continued to spin, and with my speeds increased to the point where the normal eye couldn't follow, the byakugan would surely have a hard time keeping up, given that it -without question- lacked to precognitive capabilities of the sharingan to even predict my movements let alone track them. The only things the byakugan truly yielded was a seemingly omnipresent field of vision.

Be that as it may, I'd quickly turn and take off to my own right, staying 3 meters outside the rotations edge as I'd begun to run around it, paralleling myself to what would be my opponents left flank once he'd discontinue his spin. It wouldn't have taken me long given my increased speed, but, furthermore my opponent went through a set of seals before jumping, and the moment he launched himself into the air, losing a great deal of freedom, a curving flicker past my opponents left flank would place me at his direct six, remaining 13 meters from his position still. Before he could land his 2 meter jump

my body charged itself once more, bulging and overflowing with chakra.

[1] Kaimon (Gate of Opening)
Rank: C - C - C - C - C - C - C [350]
Type: Supplementary / Nintaijutsu / Kinjutsu
Range: Self
Special: See subjutsu. Lasts for one turn, plus one more each time retrained. Intense flow of chakra is able to disrupt regular Genjutsu 'C' ranked and lower. Once activated, the user moves at twice their normal speed, to the point a normal eye has trouble seeing the user (+200%). Upon deactivation, fatigue settles and lasts as long as Gate was active, yields strain, and restricts user to Taijutsu 'A' ranked and under for the remainder of the fatigue.
Description: The first stage of the Eight Gates, the Gate of Opening (開門, Kaimon) is located in the brain, and upon activation, releases the brain's restraints, allowing full power usage of the body's muscles. Unlocking this gate allows the user to use extremely strong techniques, such as the Iron Fist's Frontal Lotus.
Domain: Hachimon.

• Strength
  Rank: C [50]
  Type: Passive / Nintaijutsu / Kinjutsu
  Range: Self
  Special: Represents strength boost received from Kaimon. Once activated, all Taijutsu, basic or advanced, shall have 'C' ranked damage stacked on at all times, equal to the amount of times retrained.
  

Shunpo (Flashing Light Steps)
Rank: D - D - D - D - D
Type: Supplementary / Taijutsu / High-Speed Movement
Range: 0 - 10 meters
Stamina: Low
Special: Shunpo is a high-speed movement in which the user travels in a linear fashion from one point to another. Usually facilitated with some sort of distraction (smoke bomb, explosion, or something of that nature to obscure one's vision), the user of the Shunpo can, in some cases, appear to have simply teleported from one location to another. 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.

• Shunpo-Tweh (Light Step Retreat) [First Shunpo]
  Rank: B [100]
  Type: Passive / Taijutsu / High-Speed Movement
  Range: Shunpo!
  Stamina: --
  Special: Gives the user the option to perform a Shunpo backwards.
  Description: Although Shunpo is normally executed in a linear fashion, with enough training, the Taijutsu Master can learn to limit their forward travel speed in exchange for a near-instantaneous backwards move. This essentially allows rapid movement to retreat or create distance between user and opponent.
  Domain: Shunpo - Universal Taijutsu.
  
  
• Shunpo-Jin (Light Step Advance) [Second Shunpo]
  Rank: B [100]
  Type: Passive / Taijutsu / High-Speed Movement
  Range: Shunpo!
  Stamina: --
  Special: Gives the user the option to perform a Shunpo that allows the user to curve in the direction of their target. If the target is out of the user's Shunpo range, the user will be drawn as close as possible.
  Description: Although Shunpo is normally executed in a linear fashion, with enough training, the Taijutsu Master can learn to read an opponent's movement and Shunpo in a curved way towards their target's last known location. With the angled attack, it increases the user's ability to strike after the Shunpo.
  Domain: Shunpo - Universal Taijutsu

2.____

My oppoent finally entered the arena, walking to his starting point as I had done myself. However, I took that time -when he walked into the arena- to look over his attire, facial expression, and the air about him, trying to get a feeling of his persona. But like they all say, never judge a book by its cover because you don't know its story. Nonetheless I was simply ready, evident by the fact that I'd shoot forward at moderate speeds cutting the distance down between us. But do know that I didn't exactly run in a linear fashion like most would do, instead I'd have taken off to at a 45^o angle, heading towards my opponents righter most flank. With my moderate run, I'd simply reduce that gap of space to half of what it truly was.
