Izumi progressed deeper into the forest. Soon they touched dirt upon a clear opening in the forest, which by no means looked natural. This only proved some men have reached this land already. Stopping close to the center of this opening, he looked it over. It could easily serve as a camping ground. For now though, it would be a battlefield.

Ass waited, watching everything around him, while Izumi sketched the grounds. They never agreed, however it seemed Izumi would handle the sketching. Whatever, one less task for the greedy chunnin.

Ass heard the rustling through the high grass, yet Izumi would beat him to the call, warning aloud, "Here they come; 12 o'clock." Instinctively Ass turned to where Izumi stated they were approaching. Dropping his Gladius instantly, he began to weave seals as they closed their distance. Noting their appearance, a small confusion arose over Ass.

What in the photoshopped hell where these things?

Half lion, half ram creatures presented themselves. Their image was fantasy like, nonetheless intimidating. They still had claws and fangs. The snarled and bared their teeth menacingly, making Ass's heart beat fast by their presence alone. Shortly after entering, the lion-rams dispersed themselves around the two chunnin. Though by the time they could position themselves, Ass's jutsu would have been in full effect. Anticipating multiple foes, he would be well prepared.

The earth began to mold, churn and rise. In quick time the earth would sculpt itself into the shape of a human body- a replica Ass. With three created, each one would be created in front of the location of a lion, one clone for each lion. The only difference in this formation would be applied to the same lion-ram that Izumi would approach. The only difference is that this clone would be positioned at an angle, allowing room for Izumi to effectively attack and giving the lion-ram extra trouble.

Utilizing both human like hands their creator gave the golems, they would assault the lions in head to head combat. [Each clone acting simultaneously] One hand reached out and grabbed for anything- some skin, their mane, a snout- something they could use to hold onto them. At the same time the other hand clenched into a fist and swung out for a nice hook. Being made of hardened earth, a successful punch would produce harmful damage to the creatures.

Hiding safely in the center, Ass took a huff as he launched out these commands. He hasn't fought in a while, and accumulating this much chakra in one burst would be something for him to adjust to as he fought. His blood rushed through his veins, sweat no beading down his neck out of worry and slight fatigue, not heat.

But he wouldn't back out after one jutsu. After finishing the Iwa Bunshin, he would begin another set of seals, prepping his next attack.

Has this jutsu been deleted? I can't find it in Doton, and I know they're have been revamps.

Shortly after Ass described his skills, Izumi covered his face with an odd garnment. Was it supposed to give off some form of intimidation? Ass knew better than to be fooled by it, but perhaps a stupid forest animal could be tricked by such a gimmick.

"One sec," Ass called out quickly. Since Izumi decided to prepare for their entry, Ass would change quick. Fed up with the thick layers of clothes, he unzipped the flak jacket, then removed his sweater. Made out of thick cloth, the sweater would only be a death trap for such a humid environment. He still had a gray tank top on beneath.
He threw the sweater to the ground, remembering it was on this side of the jungle to claim it again later. Immediately the air refreshed his body, lined with sweat. He ran a hand through his spiky orange hair, also doused with sweat. He wiped his hand off with disgust on his pant leg.

Putting his flak jacket back on, Ass nodded. "Let's start then." Izumi stated, with Ass responding, "Let's go."

The two chunnin entered the forest simultaneously. As he guessed, the air felt sticky, his entire body feeling awful in this dankness. The grass brushed against his exposed feet, feeling up against his legs and hands with every step.

Despite these small details, what would be most obvious was the dead silence that occurred with their first step into the thick grass. Now it made sense to the kekkai. Those roars that surged when they approached were warning signals. Now they stepped into their territory, challenging their status. Fucking animals and their alpha male shit... Ass swore in his mind.

"It's a little too silent..." He muttered to Izumi. However it appeared the hyuga was already scaling the area using his special skills. Ass noted everything that Izumi detailed. It appeared the animals were lurking entirely in the region the two stood in currently, which supported Ass's alpha male theory. The rest of the forest would be nothing but bandits and rogues afterwards, so it seemed.

"Alright then, get ready. We'll probably have a challenger approaching us soon..." Ass warned Izumi. Anticipating some large predator, the orange haired teen drew his Gladius in preparation. He wasn't worried about whatever would approach. Considering two-thirds of this forest were already dominated by vagabonds, the animals couldn't be that strong if those humans could assert themselves a home on their territory.

While his squad had left him to work missions alone, Ass was forced to work with whatever mission he could handle alone. This mission sounded so simple he felt disgraced performing it, however. "The damn villagers aren't willing walk to get their chips, so now I'm stuck doing it..." He protested aloud. Yet he forced himself to avert complaints. It was because they asked him to do it that he could work for the day.

This mission required him to travel a reasonable distance outside the village, to reach the factory and pick up the box. Afterwards all he needed to do was deliver the box to a shop in the village, keeping the goods intact, and he'd be done for the day. He couldn't think of a reason this mission would get complicated, however he never took a chance. All of his secondary weapons, gladius and dagger were on his person, mostly due to the fact he was still outside of the village. Anything could happen.

However it seemed unlikely anything would happen. This was one of the most relaxing days Ass had seen in a while. The breeze passed through his orange hair smoothely, and their were no sounds beyond a bird's chirp or rodent scampering. If they weren't alarmed, there was no reason for a shinobi to. The air was warm, making a few beads of sweat run down Ass's temple. Otherwise he couldn't protest such a beautiful day.

Currently he trekked a valley, every step Ass made created a soft patting sound on the rocky ground. The opening was no more than ten meters, as two walls of eroded rock rose high. At the end of this path he could spot the factory, where the package would be waiting. Closing in, he noticed a man was already standing at the post, ready to meet him. Clearly he worked for the factory, wearing a dirt covered white apron over regular clothes, and a small name tag Ass didn't bother to read. Ass walked up to him, they exchanged nods, and the package was released onto Ass. Before he left though, he warned the chunnin, "Take good care of the box, they're fragile."

"Yeah don't worry about, I can handle it." Ass responded to the man without worry. Of course, he had no reason to worry. The worker gave another nod, sold by the shinobi's confidence, and watched him walk away. As the kumo nin began to enter the valley again, he heard the chef shout, "Oh, and watch out for Jimmy!"

This comment confused Ass. Jimmy? Despite his urge to question this advisory, but he left his curiosity unanswered. He doubted that anything in the world could possibly worry him carrying a box of chips.

But he would find out very soon who Jimmy is.



Only halfway through the valley, a very short, round kid would suddenly trail Ass. Lacking any sense of stealth, he gave himself away to Ass immediately. Facing him, the shinobi questioned him, "Can I help you?"

The kid stopped urgently, flustering up. Clutching his pant sleeve with one hand, and rubbing the back of his head, he stammered. "Oh... Hehe..." Watching his nervous composure, Ass analyzed him. The kid couldn't be older than 12, wearing blue suspenders that went over his yellow shirt. He had a funny haircut that his mother probably did herself. Yet there was a funny look to his eyes, it seemed suspicious...

Remembering the man's warning, Ass abrubtly asked, "Are you Jimmy?" The child's cheeks grew even redder as his name was called. He refused to look the teen in the eyes, but choked out, "Oh, um, yeah, heh... I was just wondering..." He continued to stutter and zone off. Then, suddenly, he gulped and looked Ass in the eyes, and spoke confidently, "Can I have those chips?!"

So that's the problem... Ass thought to himself. A kid pestering Ass throughout the whole trip was all he had to worry about? The idea made him chuckle. Relaxing a little, he explained to Jimmy, "Sorry I have to deliver these chips to my village. But you can probably order a bag or two from the factory right down there." He gestured in the direction of the factory. Afterwards he turned away and continued walking down the path, waving goodbye to Jimmy.

This denial was heartbreaking for Jimmy. He could only stutter again, "Bu-but..." then quietly muttered, "I have no money..."








If only it was that easy.

Alright, and afterwards if I've learned the technique 6 times, then it would be massive, correct?

Moguragakure no Jutsu (Mole Hiding Technique) (200)
Rank: B x2
Type: Supplementary / Doton Ninjutsu
Range: See special!
Handseals: Yes
Chakra: High
Special: Range of movement depends on the user’s level of 'Doton Ryouuken'. All doton jutsu used whilst underground cost one rank less than normal due to the overwhelming earth source. User can remain underground for a single turn before needing to resurface; each time retrained, the user main remain underground for one extra turn. However, every three times trained the chakra consumption raises by one.
Description: An upgrade to Dochuu Eigyo, this underground variation grants the user movement AND the ability to attack with jutsu whilst underground. After a few short seals, the user merely sinks below, and can remain there for a small amount of time, allowing them an extremely strategic position, as well as the ability to laid explosives along the ground for the opponent to ‘enjoy’.
Domain: Doton. Doton Ryouuken 'B'. Dochuu Eigyo.

Looking at the chakra consumption clause I've underlined, would this mean that the chakra consumption would raise to massive?
