It would appear, at first glance, that Kou was at the disadvantage; he had laready revealed several of his jutsu, as well as the foundation of his art in and of itself. His foe, on the other hand, did not reveal much information. There was no way to tell what the extent of his power was, but there were several clues.

Foremost, the wide grin of the Hoshigaki would betray him. Shark-san had a thirst for battle, which quickly informed his opponent that he was not nervous, nor was he untested. Next, he referred to his weapon affectionately, and by name; this implied that Ardemus was likely no simple blade. Finally, he charged headlong at his opponent, gripping this weapon, even knowing that Kou possessed control of Hyouton Jutsu. Kiijin either had a large amount of faith in his weapon, his Taijutsu, or a combination of both.

Beneath the veil of his right sleeve, the Hitodama created several quick handseals, then began to move backwards. He would not leap, nor would he run—instead, the Jounin literally slid across the ground, his speed doubled by a path of ice that had manifested itself beneath him. While Shark-san would close the distance at 3 meters per second, Kou would open it at 6 meters per second. As a secondary effect of this jutsu, the Hoshigaki would soon encounter the path of ice, and were he to cross it at his current speed, he could very well find himself losing balance.

Once the distance returned to and looked to exceed 10 meters, the Yukina drew his left arm into the folds of his coat.

Yukisuberidai (Ice Sliding)
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary / Hyouton Kekkei Touta
Range: --
Handseals: Yes
Chakra: Low [Initial/Upkeep]
Special: User's maximum movement speed is doubled during sliding. Can only perform Ice jutsu while sliding. Can be held for one turn before needing a cool down, plus one more each time retrained; cool down equals the amount of posts used to slide. While sliding, only Hyouton jutsu may be used.
Description: A simple ninjutsu meant to exploit the Hyouton user's skills, this technique allows the shinobi to essentially cut their travel time down in half. After a few simple seals, wind and water come together below the user's feet, creating a fast moving sheet of ice which the user rides on as if it were a surfing board.
Domain: Hyouton. Hyouton Ryuuken 'D'.

"Oh?" Kou turned his head to the rough voice of the newcomer, who he could only describe as humanoid. "A shark man? To think I'd see one before my very eyes." Truth be told, he had heard the stories of the Hoshigaki, but having never seen one himself, he had treated them as mere folklore. To see such a strange man—creature?—standing before him was shocking.

"This ice is my art, Shark-san, please be gentle to the touch." The Jounin removed his hand from the towering block of ice, allowing it to fall to his side as he turned to face the stranger. His eyes were drawn quickly to many of the man's features, including the weapon his right hand had curled around. After a moment of silence, his gaze would return to the wall of ice which now hovered to his left. Soon after, his hand would grace the wall's frozen facade once more.

"What brings you to these frigid lands, Shark-san?" The Hitodama performed several handseals with his right hand and placed the weight of his focus on the wall. Within the time it took the eye to blink, the great wall began to crack, and in a terrifying act of volatility, the frozen blockade exploded into a dense sea of razor-like shards, which flew outwards, away from both the Yukina and the Hoshigaki.

Several more handseals were created with his right hand; as the last of the shards fell to the ground, 10 of the shards which dared remain afloat contorted into the form of small birds, which took flight into the heavens, before finally dissolving and returning to the earth in a shallow curtain of mist.

"Do excuse my showmanship," Kou said, turning to face the Hoshigaki once again, "but I was originally out here to practice my control."
