Event: Port Porthos Bay Side Siege

[👺 Usiel]

(Before I continue, think of your characters staring out towards the two ships coming towards you, the way the Port is this

(Ship) Deck (Ship) Deck (Ship) Deck (Ship) Deck (Ship)

So looking towards the ships it is. Deck is that piece of wood, that port section that is between ships. So it ain't a ship.

(Ship 1) Deck 1 (Ship 2) Deck 2 (Ship 3) Deck 3 (Ship 4) Deck 4 (Ship 5)

The relentless charge came about, something was happening off at sea end. The Ballistas continued their relentless attacks. It seemed that the attacks were ever occurring within the Port Porthos, the City of Drunkards. Was there any way to stop this? As the Catapult Rock came down Monzaemon, the Golem moved in its way, taking hold of the Catapult Rock, and quickly flinging it into the air. The Catapult Rock flew high into the air grazing through with its own greatness. As the warrior, the golem took hold of the creation, taking its move to Catapult it back, the sound of the deck, the sounds of wood quickly was heard. The five Massive Ships that were laid against the docks slightly moved.

Ship One two warriors quickly dashed up along the wood like spiders along the sides rushing up as they quickly climbed up along the boat. Two Warriors were along the back end of the Large Ship as the two warriors showed their faces looking towards the Dock. Each Warrior had their own respectable wear, each with what seemed like masks upon them. Their clothes soaked from the water, they seemed dingy, dirty, as if they been out in the wilderness for way to long, as if they were within their own filth for far to long. Each warrior had one sword along their sides, hammers along their sides, and crossbows strapped to their backs. Along Dock one two warriors came out with their own weaponry just as the other four. These men came forth quickly jumping up from the water like dolphins landing with great ease as they glanced forward looking at all that were in their way. Each warrior were armed with their own weaponry of crossbows along their backs, filled with bolts and swords.

On Ship Two along the right hand side two men quickly jumped up scaling the walls as the two warriors quickly slammed against their feet as they kicked off heading towards Ship 3 holding the crossbows in their hands as they each sent bolts heading towards their target, one to the Mayor another to Pandoru flipping themselves into the ship. Two other warriors came from the back end of Ship two as they slammed along the back holding what looked like the semi-auto crossbows with their hands. None of these two had swords along their sides, except another clip for the bolted Crossbow. They began their assault sending shots towards what they could see against the sailors along Ship two as the sailors tried to escape. Along Deck 2 two other pirates came out as they jumped up into the air like dolphins from the sea as they slammed onto the port looking forward with crossbows along their hands, swords along their right sides as they quickly unleashed their bolts towards Monzaemon.

Ship three along the Left hand side two pirates quickly scaled up along the side of the large ship. As the pirates of Ship two jumped off the pirates of Ship 3 jumped off towards Ship to to land within the ship as they launched their own bolts towards a couple of mercenaries flipping into the air. Along the back end of the large ship two warriors holding their own semi crossbows the warriors rushed through not firing in. This ship was more empty then the other for there was no need for it. The two warriors rushed forward with their great speed as one quickly blunt ended a sailor with his massive cross bow while the other hissed through heading towards the front end, jumping off of the front end of the ship, taking random shots into the crowd, a couple towards Pandoru, a couple towards the samurai mercenary, a couple to the dwarf.

Along Ship Four A warrior along each side of the ship quickly dashed up to the top of the ship reaching the main part. They wore what was worn like the rest of the pirates. Each pirate with a sword along their sides, with what seemed like a different type of Crossbow along their back, Shot bows with their own array of bolts in their designated areas. The warriors would look forward towards the port as they quickly jumped down from the ship unsheathing their swords as they land. Deck four Two warriors came out with something more different then that of the other warriors. These warriors quickly jumped from the water onto the deck with straps around their chest crossed sided, and across their waists. There was an array of bottles strapped within the straps as if they were some sort of ammo. Each warrior held a glass bottle, clear as a window along each hand while there were pieces of paper within each bottle. One quickly threw one bottle towards the nearest building towards Pandoru. As the bottle would sail out, if made contact with whatever it was it would explode outwards, as shards of glass would sail in all directions, while a small piece of the wall would become a hole in the wall's place. Another warrior would take hold of his own bottle as he would hurl it with all of his might, to hurl it far off past the small group, to create an explosion behind hopefully to cause a distraction.

Ship Five the final ship. A Large man would jump up along the back end of the massive ship. This man was large in stature as he would stare off into the distance. He was shirtless, with ripped pants, no shows just sandals. He would laugh as he would raise his fist into the air and pound along the back end of the ship creating a crushing blow against the ship as the wood would fly upwards, shards of wood slamming into the sailors, as the shock wave would send those that were near the edges flying off into the distance. Imagine, five ships, four decks, this all occurring as the catapult that was sent was flying into the air, everything happening in a simultaneous fashion as if everything was preplanned.

As the Catapult flailed into the air off into the distance where the ship had sent it. "Catapult Ahoy!!" Yelled out one of the pirates as he looked through with a binocular seeing the rock sailing back. "Captain it's...its ours!!!" he yelled out as his eyes widen quickly jumping down as the rock, the stone fire rock slammed into his post along the top end of the main, the wood shattered as the pirate fell straight down into the watter. The Rock continued to tumble down as the rock slammed into the back end of the ship. The rock continued to push through as it slammed through the hule.

"Aye lads, it seems that they 'ave ammunition o' thar owns!!!" The captain yelled out, a short man, a man hanging along the sails as he began sliding down along the ropes to the ship's deck. The man seemed to have a semifire crossbow along his side even for his stature as well as a large sword along his back. The man was perhaps four foot eight, and was indeed a dwarf of a man. How could this man, a man with red flowing beard be a captain with a pegged leg. Picture "Aye lads, lets do this, plug up that hole now, I needs another watcher on top now, if we 'ave t' we shall use it." he yelled out his orders around quickly taking charge as the pirates along the ship quickly gave out a howl of a cry. A few pirates went down to where the crash was to start their repairs.

[hanafubuki]

OOC: Pandoru said it was alright if I posted before her since she'll be gone until later tonight; I'm not sure if they're is a posting order, but I know we all intend to post before Heero does so he can encompass all of our responses.

Returning fire… what a surprise.

Were it so easy. For in the brief moments it’d taken the Golem to redirect the pirate’s assault, it seemed as though they’d been setting the defensive peoples up from the beginning. From all fronts of the Port, beings protruded from the murky waters as if they’d been positioned since before the horizon burned with such a vigorous light. Multiple silhouettes poured forth onto the shores, and within an instant the sound of steel kissing still filled the former stillness of the morn. The sound of bolts ripping through the air filled the shinobi’s senses, yet in the end he remained as indifferent as ever.

You see, Monzaemon had still yet to relinquish his positioning from his stone Golem’s rear, and with its girth and height was quite safe from any of the projectiles these pirate could’ve launched in that preemptive strike. Though it was most unfortunate they could not dare say the same, for they had fallen into an trap laid within the quickest process of thinking.

Kagemane no Jutsu [Shadow Imitation Technique]
Rank: C-rank.
Skill: NinJutsu.
Effect: The signature move of the Nara family, this jutsu allows the user to control their own shadow and merge it with their opponent's shadow, combining them. This links the movements of the user with the target; the target is subsequently forced to make any movement the user makes. It is an extremely versatile technique, as the user can contract and change the shape of their shadow, potentially grabbing multiple targets at once. The degree to which the user's shadow can be stretched is limited by its total surface area.
Special: Seals are used but unknown.
Drawback: Must Be Learned multiple times in order to truly achieve something grand.
Description: Using the shadows of other objects, the user can extend their shadow beyond its normal range. The amount of time for which an opponent can be held is limited by the user's chakra, since the user must constantly maintain the jutsu. The jutsu is also more difficult to maintain at greater ranges or for multiple opponents, since the user's shadow must be stretched constantly. At closer ranges, it requires considerably less effort on the user's part. Additionally, the target can force their way free with enough effort, though the amount of effort required to do so is considerable. There are two tables or understandings for this technique that consists of the Difficulty class of the User as well as the Opponent, and as to how far the user is capable of using this technique. When first learned the user is only capable of using this technique at a distance of ten meters. Each time this technique is learned the distance increases by another Ten Meters. The user is capable of making their shadow split and by doing so takes up the distance of the total form of the original technique. This means that if a user has this technique to where they can use thirty meters and wishes to make this technique split to three shadows the maximum distance is ten meters per shadow.

The Nara’s digits rolled as if instinctively upon the first sounds of the bolts being fired, with a speed so surreal that by the time the bolts had actually struck the callous hide of his Golem the technique had already been prepared. From his kneeling form their sprouted a single shadow, shooting forth with the agility of the swiftest shinobi – it would split, multiplying accordingly to the number of feet he’d caught glimpse of from beneath the spread legs of his lofty (tall) Golem. His attempt was augmented greatly by the darkened landscape, for how would they expect such a thing? One minute they’re focused upon shooting someone, the next they’re ensnared by an invisible force.

Too bad they wouldn’t have time to ponder the matter—since the moment the technique had proved successful, another series of hand seals would be praised – his pawns, following the movements.

Kage Bunshin no Jutsu [Shadow Clone Jutsu]
Rank: B-rank.
Skill: Ninjutsu.
Effect: The Kage Bushin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Jutsu) is a increased and stronger form of the Regular Bushin jutsu which is a meer Genjutsu. Kage Bushin allows the clones to actually inflict damage upon the opponent, They can even use jutsu for they carry their own chakra circulatory system making it even impossible for the Hyuuga clan members to tell them apart from the original. Each clone that the user makes divides his.her chakra up evenly between them making ten clones means each clone has one tenth the original users chakra supply. The clones are real enough they even bleed when cut but when inflicted with enough damage the clone disappears.
Special: A special Handsign where the user crosses the two first fingers of each hand making a cross.
Drawback: The average user can only make about 5 clones. Excessive use of the Clone jutsu can leave the use extremely low on chakra. When the clones are destroyed the user does not get a return in charka.
Description: The Kage Bushin is an Exact Replica of the user and can not in anyway be proven to be a copy not even by the most elite of jutsu. Unless taken to the test and actually harmed.
Limit: Must be an ANBU. Must be Chuunin in order to get this technique. Kage only is capable of allowing someone to learn.

Rather than an abundant amount, the shinobi summoned only a single being to materialize upon his side. Identical in each and every way, more stabilized than a mere bushin, this being would assist in dispatching the fools whom dared attack him. Charcoal orbs locked for only a fraction of a second before a nod was given, the kage bushin slipping its hand behind and under the flak jacket which adorned it stout shoulders. Booted feet shifted amongst the rugged terrain before the body simply vanished, his movements mimicking the speed of its Origin. With a flick of the wrist its tanto became visible amongst the morning sky, and in a flawless dance, mirroring a rolling stream; he struck all of his enemies within a single instant.

Mikazuki no Mai [Dance of the Crescent Moon]
Rank: A-rank.
Skill: Ninjutsu/Taijutsu.
Effect: The user makes two clones of himself each using a katana and uses the three clones and a select set of movements to seem like they are moving at an extreme and delicate speed confusing the enemy.
Special: Kage Bushin Sign.
Drawback: The user has to be flawless and it usually takes complete concentration and requires a high amount of chakra to perform the rapid swift movements.
Description: The three clones stand next to each other before moving the swords into a crescent moon shape. Then the three clones move sliding behind and in front of each other in a rapid movement flawlessly. Causing it to look as if there are three of the opponents but yet none at the same time. The three become hard to hit and this confuses even the most skilled of opponents with the sly movements of the user and their clones.
Limit: Must know Kage Bunshin no Jutsu.

Capable of using its creator’s techniques, the kage bushin had formulated a pair of its kin to assist with this tedious task. They moved as if the rays of the moon itself guided their paths, almost invisible in their acceleration, dipping and curving, twisting and flipping. In the blink of an eye all of the ensnared victims would’ve been slain, their blood let loose to seep into the docks and wash against the rocks. It all happened so fast – even if the shadow imitation technique failed, the beautiful dance would’ve struck true and slaughtered them regardless. It was a lose-lose situation for his opponents, yet that didn’t concern him; his only mission was to protect these docks – and Pandoru, he decided in the midst of the battle. His actions came as fluent and synchronized as the pirates, yet with a more professional disposition that only a shinobi could exercise.

The battle had begun, oh, it had begun.

[pandoru]

{Oh gawd, I hope I got everything o___o;;}


’…Movement?’

Indeed, though the shift in the environment wasn’t what the girl had expected. She’d be hoping for the silhouette of ships in the fog, but the movement she picked up was much closer… and a bit more dangerous, not to mention sudden. Now, along with the rain of projectiles, their true enemy made their appearance, and again, the puppeteer found herself wondering just how many there were. ‘Too many’ was the only answer she could draw and be satisfied with. Though the teen was concerned for the whole of the port, with all the action that had suddenly erupted, she could only effectively keep her attention on the area around her. However, for these few seconds, that was all she needed to focus on.

Had her focus been any less intense than it had been in the previous moments, she surely would have been hit. However, both reflexes and size were on her side. With Seikiri already in front of her, and being both larger and wider than she, the kunoichi of Iwa had a very effective shield. The quick flicking of her digits was all that was necessary to have the extended blades swing, the clanging of bolts against steel a sign that the immediate threat had left her. Moving with her puppet, she relocated herself as Seikiri’s upper body turned, its arms swinging to repeat the earlier motion.

It was as the redhead moved however, that she took note of another launched object. Though, it would seem that this one hadn’t intended to hit her directly. Either that or this particular pirate had extremely bad aim. Whatever the case, that bottle wasn’t going to stop itself, and the girl wasn’t sure she wanted to know what the results of it shattering would be. How useful it was for her that two hands were not necessary to keep her puppet alive; something she proved by immediately disconnecting the strings coming from her right hand, and attaching them to the object soaring over her head.

With the object being in motion, she didn’t have complete control over it. She could, however, redirect it. The twists of her wrist and the tugging of the threads pulled the bottle near, and an additional flip sent it right back up above her. How odd it must have appeared to the others in the crowd, as chakura threads were invisible to the untrained eye. This bottle overhead, which quickly took on a spinning, almost lasso like twirl. But what to do with it now? It was very possible it would hit one of the boats if she tried to use it against them, which certainly wouldn’t make the mayor of this town very happy. ’Think…!’ Ah, but there was no time. Coming to a decision, the bottle was released after another good twirl, the momentum of the spin sending the explosive glass flying back out, hopefully harmlessly, into the sea. Excellent timing too it would seem, for if the explosion behind her had gone off a moment sooner, her concentration surely would have been shattered. The girl flinched as the loud sound crashed behind her, but she would not turn. The enemy was right in front of her.

And it was time to bring down the numbers.

Her eyes narrowed dangerously, and her fingers flicked, sending the puppet forward with the poison-stained steel extended. However, this would not be her weapon of choice at the moment. The larger man was her target, as he seemed to be able to do the most damage the swiftest. Killing him immediately was not her goal, as she was fairly sure that intense strength would break her puppet in half. What she could do, however, was make him an easier target for the others. Pandoru moved as her puppet did, being sure to keep within the range limit that her threads would allow. She came to rest outside the fifth ship just as Seikiri did. Again, her digits moved swiftly, and the compartment in her puppets head was revealed. The barrel inside could only be seen for a brief moment before a bomb was shot out of it; specifically, a gas bomb, containing the poison of Nenshou Sesshoku. The moment the bomb left the barrel, strings were pulled and the duo retreated, keeping distance as to not suffer the effects of the gas. It was not lethal, but would definitely weaken one to the point that they were easy prey. Distorted vision, nausea and sweating would be the effects of the recently released gas, and those were not things she intended to suffer through right now.

A dull heat pulsated in her palm, reminding the redhead that her second weapon would soon be ready. Now, if only her target would become more obvious, this would be much easier. She growled slightly, tugging on the strings to pull the puppet even closer to her. Ranged combat was usually how she worked, but when the enemy was all around, she couldn’t afford to leave herself open.

As the sun rose, Nyzu continued to creep down through the docks in utter silence. The streets lay empty as he slinked his way towards the docks. With each passing step his puppet trembled heavily, moving at a slow pace, taking its time as if every second could be spared. As his eyes darted about from inside the puppet, he chuckled softly to himeslf. The streets lay abandoned... its all quiet... too quite... Worming his way along through the streets, his puppet continues to trudge a path, steadily, as if in no hurry what so ever. His mind races with previous orders from the anbu who had appeared to him before. The scroll with those orders lay in his bag with him inside the puppet as he unraveled it once more to read aloud to himself. "Report to Port Porthos... defend the docks from seige... keep everything intact..." The rest seems to slip from his mind as he rolls the scroll up and tosses it into his bag once again. His eyes darting about uncomfortable, the darkness of the streets pleases him. It seems that today was to be full of grimace and despair, for mist hung over the skies, blocking out the sun as silence engulfed the port.

Continuing to inch about, a slight while begins to echo through the air. Looking up, Nyzu spots what seems to be bolts, dashing across the sky. Safe at his distance he sighs and shakes his weary puppet's head. "Typical... always late..." There seems to be no sign of his teammates as he continues to traverse the abandoned streets. Suddenly twitching his fingers, Banryu leaps atop the roof of a building, taking him along with it. From atop, he spots the port docks off at a distance and begins to approach them. His mind boggles with what is to come. Sluggishly creeping across the roof tops, Nyzu would at last reach the docks. From above the building he looked down to see the havoc that ensued. Standing above one of the two story buildings, he surveys all that surrounds him. Spying no mist nin anywhere, he sits there contently scanning and analyzing the current situation.

His eyes peering through Banryu's they shift about in mechanical sockets as several figures catch his attenion. From below, he spots a shinobi atop a stone golem. Saying nothing at all and performing no actions, he watches like a vigilant sentinel, as bearer and witness to the battle that had begun. The stone giant lumbers forth with a might earth shaking step as it returns fire to the enemy, below near the base of his building, another ninja is seen. His eyes stray to her for some time however as he spots what seems to be chakra strings jetting from her fingers. Eh? Whats this now? A puppeteer...?" Catching sight of her puppet warding off an attack, he looks at it intrigued and examines it from a distance. Fan blades... interesting layout... resembling a mantis? He cannot ponder much longer however, for his eyes swiftly catch sight of a flaming bottle approaching the building he stands atop. About to act, chakra strings are quickly struck to the bottle and send flying away towards the ocean as it explodes. Chuckling a bit, Nyzu eases his fingers, letting his chakra strings hang limp once again. His eyes reverting back to the foreign puppeteer, he continues to watch her puppet as it rushes towards the man while firing a gas bomb. Then as swiftly as the master and puppet ahd assulted, both vanish back allowing what seems to be poison to take hold.

Quickly losing interest in the battle, Nyzu continues to stand atop the building hidden inside his Banryu. His eyes search the horizon for his companions, he remains motionless and dreadfully bored. Inside the puppet he twiddles his fingers trying to sate the urges inside him. His eyes continue to maintain their tint of red as Nyzu licks his lips slowly. His mind begins to briefly sever from his morality and logic as carnal instinct begins to take over. From inside Nyzu dances along the dangerous line of sanity, his instincts begging him to make the leap. (None of this is visible however, if one were to look up, theyd spot only a large balded man sitting atop the rooftops draped in a black cape.)

Abyssus abyssum invocat...

[Cirah Ranzatsu]

Rendai finally had made it to Port Porthos. AS soon as he got there, he noticed drunks everywhere, and bottles of whatever alcohol littered throughout. 'Hmm, this isnt where I need to be. What in the world?' He thought as he saw what looked like a battle of some sort going on in the distance. Jumping up to one of the rooftops, he needed to get a birds eye view of what was going on. Chances are, he wouldnt be of much help with just arrows, but he had to try at least.

Finally making it to the water, and the ships that were there, Rendai looked around. 'Hmm...theres a leaf shinobi. Apperently he is the one that I was told I would find. An earth user? Wait, those arent earth jutsus, thats a clone of some sort, possible Kage Bunshin since it is running around, going in for an attack.' Rendai thought as he looked at what habu was doing. He wondered what his tactics were.

Then he looked over at a puppeteer. 'Hmm, she isnt wearing a headband. I heard that stone, cloud, and mist were all given the mission to do, so she is probably with one of those, same with that guy, though he isnt doing anything. Those blades, they look like there is something on them. Hmm...It could be poison, but I cant tell from this distance. I wouldnt be able to tell at all if I wasnt a bowman.' He then thought as he looked out at the ships

'5 ships and people attacking from all directions. each in there own different ways. I think I will wait it out and see what is going on before I try to assist them a lot.' Thought Rendai as he pulled out his bow from his back and held it there, watching over the scene and seeing what happens. This could get dangerous, and he will be of no use if he runs out of arrows. He knew he should have learned other jutsu before this.

[Itaru]

The seals commenced, the Shinobi's fingers contorting, hands altering to each completed hand sign. Silvery eyes pierced through the thick greasy haze, severing its abilities to hinder the organs of sight belonging to the Stone Shinobi, Itaru. Itaru's face whipped to the side as one of the many projectiles went gliding through the fog disrupting the atmosphere. The fingers of the young man wrapped the handle of his kusari-gama. Just as he expected before arriving in the location, something unexpected was bound to happen. He didn't understand what would come exactly, but there was no time to be thinking about that now. Itaru's eyes caught glimpse of Pandoru's tactics; so she was a puppeteer. Very interesting, Itaru thought to himself.

By watching the actions made by the Leaf Shinobi known as Monzaemon, Itaru figured that man could watch out for himself, and Itaru moved away from Pandoru's side where he was originally situated, and allowed his silhouette to be swallowed up by the mist. Possessing the ability to clearly see through the mist that would cloud one's vision, Itaru was able to witness the oncoming projectiles with the keen eyes belonging to his bloodline. If there hadn't been team members fighting with Itaru, he would have added to the sight annoyance by his own NinJutsu techniques, but since that was not the case, he wouldn't be foolish and make any mistakes.

Over the seas the lay spead out before the docks, Itaru processed the sight of the individual ships. His sandals collided with the wooden underlay as he dashed through the area, hand signs suddenly beginning to take form. They were however, put to a sudden halt with the young ninja had to throw his body away from the pathway of speeding bolt. Rolling his body across the grounds, he stayed stanchioned upon his lone right knee and completed the designated hand signs for the particular NinJutsu. Itaru understood that with the proper foundation, others indicating his footsteps would not be a problem, except for sound which he would need to take care of in the mean time.

'I hope Pandoru and Monzaemon can take care of themselves.' Itaru said to himself before his entire body ceased to be present within the area, Or, that is how it would seem to the eyes of those around him. Hands placed at his weapon once again, Itaru pulled the kusari-gama from its sheeth and grasped the chain connected to its handle in one hand, while the handle itself was taken in his right hand. Itaru only figured that since there was already so much commotion in the area, the vibrations he created would only go unnoticed. Still, he act on instincts to evade the attacks sent at him. His eyes took a quick glanced back at Pandoru and Monzaemon. He would be watching out for them as well.

[Kinz]

Muteki was sitting on the deck of the ship enjoying the sea air while the ship headed for what the captain said was “The busiest port in Fang.” Whether or not that was the case, all Muteki knew was that it was where his mission had told him to go. The sun was coming up over the horizon and Muteki thought he could almost make out the sound of… well, for lack of a better word “bustling” of a town.

This “bustling” seemed odd however. In the Mist village there was a light sound, like that of the wind through the trees mixed with running water. This was different however. This was more like the sound of flapping wings combined with thunder. Muteki had never heard a sound of this nature. Muteki strained his eyes trying to peer into the mist as his boat began lurching ever closer towards the port.

Muteki saw a few large birds fly through the sky, and then was terrified by a large ball of light streaking through the sky. This holy radiance made Muteki strain his eyes to the limit to get a more focused view, and what he saw now was not birds and gods, but large, man sized arrows, and flaming piles of debris. “F**k” was all that came to Muteki’s mouth as he realized the fight had already begun.

After taking only enough time to shoot a stop order to the captain, who was already beginning to retreat the boat, Muteki leapt off the boat and began running towards the source of the ammunition. The mist blocked his view, but soon he would see through it to his goal. The enemy.


(taiya, y traveling companion is here, skip her now and she will post next time around.)

[👺 Usiel]

(I noticed no one said certain things about certain people so yeah, forgive me but I got a lot of writers, and a lot of people to deal with so I will do what I can in the most applicable way.)

As the excitement occured, something grand happened. The Warriors along the top of the ships the ones that were along the back end of the ships quickly stopped their weaponry. There were five ships, nine fighters on the top of the ship as they each ran down into the bottom level of the ship. Each one The large man along Ship 5 would look around grunting here and there as he laughed hardy like taking his time on his steps moving lower and lower down to the ship. Along Ship two the two fighters there one would run down, into the massive hallways as the other placed a hand against his communcation device located along his neck. "Ush'akal, udos ph'ul'mubar wund l'cargo rek'larst, nau Resistance wun udossta i'dol.," he spoke into the com link.

Along the Ship one and three they quickly spoke forth saying the same three. Along Ship Four there was some sort of resitance, the sailors within the ship had quickly made a baracade down at the bottom. Boxes and boxes of cargo were in the way. The two pirates down below seemed to have been stuck between the two locations between the stairs and the main hallway "Udos aslu fol resistance ush'akal, udos orn xo'al ulu ifa forward jhal udos xal ssrig'luin rath phor" one of the pirates yelled out as he felt the bolts connected behind the wood that he leaned against.

The one large pirate man along Ship five would move about here and there as he looked around until he saw some sailors rushing towards him. "Same cap'n resistance here," he yelled out as he took his ready for their attacks.

"Tenu folks ori'gato udossa xun nindol a l'voiry t'yin, inbau wun, lu'report vel'drav dos inbau wun rath phor zhah pholor l'i'dol." the captain yelled out from his own com link far off from one of the other ships. He seemed somewhat pleased as he landed along the ground turning around chuckling as he yelled out towards both ships. "Aye men, man the guns, get them ready, when I order open fire," he yelled out quickly.

As this was occuring the ninja, the mercenaries made their moves. Itaru disappeared as two pirates freaked out one quickly spoke in his intercom as the other shot his crossbow in the general direction of Itaru as he would disappear. The pirates knew someone copould disappear, however there was no way in hell someone could figure out his exact location unless they did something about it.

Where Monzaemon was located at, the Stone Golem's shadow worked since he was indeed part of Monzaemon, however, there is no way someone may perform two techniques at the same time while having another one made. With that saying as he would begin the Kage Bunshin no Jutsu the spell was over. The pirates that were once captured freaked out as they looke down feeling that their tense grasp was suddenly done. They rushed forward as the clone made his own appearance. The Kage would make two other Kages, making it where now each one has thirty three percent of their own chakra, out of the fifty percent of chakra initially made (Wont allow this again cause really you are not allowed to make a Kage Bunshin using a Kage Bunshin since you are using the original person).

The attack came forth in all of its brilliance and significance. One of the Pirates was away from the distance, as the other pirate was still within its graphical distance as the contact of the technique made its peace. The warrior would fall down dead in its own silence.

Back where Pandoru was located, the bomb came forth as it slammed into the water. The bombs hit along the near end of Ship five, the gas bomb came forth as the warriors began coughing outwards, a few gagged out quickly vomiting.

The Bolt that sailed towards the Mayor slammed into his neck. His eyes widen as he felt a shock of pain going through his body. Quickly he fell to the floor on his knees. There was a wave of pirates along the docks and the floors, much larger then one would expect. The pirates along the Ship 2 and three quickly rushed to the beginning to the ship as they looked down. As The Kage Bunshins of Monzaemon were being occupied, they quickly launched their own cross bows at them before taking cover as they reached into their pouches, taking out what looked like large bottles. One by one they placed them down along the ship as they reached in taking out flint and steal as they quickly lit what looked like two cloths along the bottles. The Pirates along Ship one quickly jumped down to the docks as they dashed towards the right, seeing that they were leaving the area, heading towards a building way off in the distance.

The people along Ship three quickly brought their crossbows down as they looked around waiting for the right moment. One reached into a pocket and pulled out a bolt with an odd tip, reaching over he placed the bolt into placed and aimed it high taking a shot. The bolt busted on fire as the bolt made a signal, lighting up the sky slightly more. The other quickly yelled out with all of his might. "L'che'el orn tlu udosst." as every pirate yelled out in respones. "Haaaaoooouuu!!!"

Then something came raining down from the sky. Five things came slamming down sailing through the clouds. If one were to look up they would not be capable of seeing with ease pushing down by the speed of gravity. One heading on top of Monzaemon. Along each five massive creation, there was cloths of flames as the creations were gourds. The moment it would make contact along the ground, or anything it hits, the gourds would shatter, there was no way to capture these in mid air in a hard fashion or else they will shatter forth. When the gourds shatter they would shatter in a vast expansion of twenty feet radius, these gourds were huge, filled with animal fat and blubber, components that was easily flamable as the flamed cloth ignited the animal fat and components creating a combustion of flames pushing off in all directions.

Problems were, this came from straight above, not in a diagnal form. Where were these coming from? One would slam along a deck by miss fire as the flames would ignite, it seemed that it would come around Ship five, another along a building close to Itaru. A fourth one was where Pandoru was heading, near her location, and a last one behind the warriors in a vast form creating a small circular motion of flames in a vast form.

[pandoru]

Increased activity only made it that much more difficult to focus. What had got the girl’s attention this time however, was that she noticed the ones that were, at one point visible upon the ships, began to vanish. Her eyes narrowed, and the brightly colored optics shifted to glance at another ship. ’They’re inside…’ Problematic indeed, as keeping the cargo safe was one of the goals of this mission. If they were already at it… her brow furrowed. There were simply too many of them, and her skills simply not up to par with those of her partners. With a bit more experience under her belt, surely she would have been able to think up more ways to keep people safe. Thinking, however, took up the time that she truly didn’t have.

It was interesting, how they seemed to be everywhere yet nowhere near. Ranged combat, as she had observed already. Her poison had obviously taken effect already; easy marks for the gennin of their group, or so she hoped. Certainly the pirates wouldn’t be able to fight back easily under those conditions. The flicking of the girls digits created the slightest bit of distance between her and her puppet, but before a real action could be made, she froze. Additional movement from the ships was detected as the pirates took shots towards Monzaemon. A mildly concerned expression crossed her face, but she quickly realized that the shots were not taken at the male, but at the clones he had created. She nodded to herself, reassured that he would be alright, and put her attention elsewhere.

The first two ships became her target, eyes darting back and forth as she became curious to what exactly they were plotting. What she truly didn’t like was that they appeared to be placing bottles of some kind, most likely ones that would have had the same results of the bottles thrown earlier. Truly something she didn’t want to experience first hand. Though something else took importance over the pirates setting up their trap. While it was obvious what would happen if the bottles exploded, what she wasn’t so sure about would be the consequences if she let those runners get away. It seemed unlikely to her that the enemy would just up an runaway at the beginning of the battle. Unlikely and highly suspicious. Swiftly Pandoru’s hand dove into the pouch at her hip, with drawing a kunai laced with an exploding tag. Her goal was to cut them off, not harm them. If she could hurt them however, all the better she supposed.

A swift motion, and the kunai was sent flying from her grip; a slightly slanted toss that would soar pass the pirates and plant itself into the earth. Upon impact, she would quickly form a seal, detonating the tag and causing an explosion directly in front of the fleeing pirates. If it went well, they would end up being blown back by the force, right back into the heat of battle. They’d be left open, only adding onto the increasing number of ’easy targets.’ Now, which one of these lovely people would be her first victim? She had pulled her hand back to ready an attack, but the sudden outburst of the pirates on the third ship had distracted her from any kind of action, aside from staring of course.

’A signal?’ The puppeteer wondered, furrowing her brow as she stared up at the sky and the burst of light that had been shot there. That… didn’t seem to be all that was up there though. Squinting didn’t help make the image any more clear, but what the girl could tell was that they were falling quickly, and that they appeared to be on fire. As the kunoichi’s eyes widened, her first thought was to catch them or redirect them somehow. But… how? No time to think, and no ideas to fill the little time she had. Only the most obvious one stuck out, and that plan was voiced. “Move!!!” she called, warning those in her general area that unless they got out of the blast radius, they were going to be in a world of pain. Though the docks were her main concern, there was truly nothing she could do to prevent this strike. She pushed off from the ground, throwing herself forward a long with the puppet. The heat hit against her back as the gourd smashed against the ground. Not a bomb, it seemed, just a highly flammable substance. Pressed tightly against Seikiri now, she looked back up at the sky.

Something had dropped them, and she’d find out herself if she had to.

[Chaos]

Taiya would find herself asleep on the boat's deck. She was tired. They had traveled through the night non stop and she was already tired from training on that previous day. She stirred up a bit to hear Muteki shout something and heard a light splash. These sounds were soon accompanied by other noises she couldn't decipher.

"What the hell..."

Taiya looked around, no one was in sight. She didn't know where the captain went and saw Muteki running across the water towards the battle scene. We are here. Finally I suppose i'll take a more indirect approach and see what is going on.

Taiya jumped off the boat herself to see the captain escaping in the exact opposite way Muteki had. Taiya rushed over the water into the mist where Port Porthos became visible. She coutned 5 vessels and people scattered about. An explosion on the beach told her that this would be a bloody battle. She saw Muteki headed straight for battle. He can handle himself. I'm going to get a grip on the situation.

Taiya curved off of Muteki's route and ended up on the beach. She placed herself next to a small building. By this time her face mask had been put on, it was time for battle. Taiya studied her surroundings and watched the battle. She surveyed who was obviously the pirates and who was on her side. Scattered ninja from unknown villages fought well.

Something made Taiya look up. On the roof top she spotted a man overlooking the battle. He could possibly be an enemy. Maybe an ally. He could possibly even be some drunk who doens't know what the hell is going on. Taking precautions Taiya slowly pulled out a Kunai. She made a quick Shunshin behind the man on the roof and stood in a square stance with the Kunai held outward pointing at the man.

"Excuse me sir. If you don't mind, please state your presence."

Taiya sounded cold hearted as if she demanded answers. One could even catch a tone of rudeness. But she still tried to be respectful. The man was huge, Taiya figured he was hiding something under his cloak. She wouldn't take any action for now but await an answer.

[hanafubuki]

Damn it, he thought.

These bastards were becoming a nuisance, the Nara couldn’t deny this. It wasn’t their skill nor talent, but simply the massive numbers of which they flocked the bay; no matter, the result would be the same inevitably. The shadow imitation technique had done its wonders, keeping the fiends still while his shadow clone had managed to cut one down to size – but now, it was time to get serious. There would be no prisoners, no survivors – these pirates would know the true meaning of fear; Monzaemon could only grin.

___

Clone 1
He’d been the initiator of the crescent moon dance, and thusly (through technical terms) the leader of the trio. His sword was drenched in the blood of his fallen opponent, though he was not offered a moment to bask in such glory – for more opponents poured from the ocean’s maw, and thus they would be forced to deal with such a problem. While not directly low on chakra, the clone would need to be just as wise as his summoned comrades if they were to be of any use to Monzaemon. And fortunately, through sheer luck, they hasty movements saved them an almost immediate death.

For even though the bolts were fired unbeknownst to the clones, they hadn’t stayed stationary, and through these sporadic movements (forward, toward the docks) they were able to coincidentally dodge the raining arrows.

Kage Nui [Shadow Sewing]
Rank: B-rank.
Skill: NinJutsu.
Effect: ----
Special: ----
Drawback: ----
Description: The user of this jutsu can extend their shadow and create multiple tangible tendrils for various purposes. Such purposes can include using them as stabbing weapons, rope for binding an opponent, or extra appendages for throwing weapons.
It can also be used simultaneously with Shadow Imitation Technique, so it is possible to split the shadow and use both jutsus at the same time.
Limit: Nara Clan Technique, Must have knowledge of the Shadow Imitation Technique of at least fifty meters.

Due to their creator’s gracious reservoir of chakra, techniques weren’t too much of an issue; the clone’s hand fell upon one another intricately and in a surreal fashion. From his feet, multiple threads poured forth from with the speed of a jettisoning projectile, branching from the floor only once upon the enemies Monzaemon himself had once contained. Through their stomach and chest they would be impaled; their heads, too. Only fatal, life-taking blows were dealt.

This was only the precursor, for he would take to ship three immediately after this.

Clone 2
This bushin, on the other hand, had moved onto bigger fish. He’d caught sight of the larger man and taken it upon himself to handle, though other sailors were already on the job. This was the perfect distraction he needed in order to accomplish his task, enough to end the pathetic life of this pirate – one who feeds off of the weak and defenseless.

Shunshin no Jutsu [Body Flicker Technique]
Rank: C-rank.
Type: NinJutsu.
Effect: This jutsu is a high-speed movement technique, allowing a ninja to move short distances at an almost untraceable speed. To an observer, it appears as if the user has teleported.
Special: ---
Drawback The user is only capable of doing this THREE Times per day after learning it the first time. Each time learned the user is capable of going into this multiple times. Each time learned the user is capable using this technique an extra turn per day. If the user uses this technique more then stated, the user's muscles will cramp and render the user unable to run about.
Description: This jutsu is a high-speed movement technique, allowing a ninja to move short distances at an almost untraceable speed. To an observer, it appears as if the user has teleported. A puff of smoke is occasionally used to disguise the user's movements. It is accomplished by using chakra to temporarily boost the user's reflexes. The amount of chakra required depends on the overall distance between the user and their intended destination. Shisui Uchiha, one of the most talented Uchiha, was feared as "Shisui of the Body Flicker" ("Shunshin no Shisui"), likely referring to this technique.

From his distance he would vanish, reappearing (airborne) behind the behemoth as he took ready to defend himself against the oncoming troops. With his attention pulled upon them, it would be highly unlikely he would notice the kage bushin within his blind spot, pre-thrusting its drawn tanto into his skull. A diagonal thrust, even if by some miracle of God he managed to evade the stab it would bite into the lower neck region (and or spine), due to the close proximity of the attack.

After this, he would tend to the beings on ship two.

Clone 3
Unfortunately, these fools weren’t too keen on covering their tracks, for he had noticed the being that had jumped off and darted into the distance. This bushin would take pursuit, easily out of harms way as he was nothing more than a mere blur – such speed, truly beautiful; he was close behind, enough to see his every movement.

___

And alas, there was Monzaemon. One would be foolish to believe he too had sat still throughout all these actions, for the moment he’d seen his techniques work he was able to bring himself into movement – yet he was not quick enough, and suffered from this delay of strategies.

Luckily, he’d not been directly in his former positioning as a meteor smashed into the landscape. The splash damage and sheer force was enough to throw the shinobi to his face, his back riddled with dirt and rocks that had crashed into him; his golem, too, shaken by the force yet not enough to topple its balance. Yet he was not one to waver, and thus he’d rushed to his feet almost instantly after his fall.

Shit, these kids are getting serious…

He thought as he glimpsed forward at those beyond, his mind having decided then. Within an instant, he’d come but a phantom upon the bodies of many, reverting back to a safer location somewhat distant from the main struggle. Eyes narrowed once more, examining the landscape and judging the distance; he’d come to his resolve in a mere instant, and before he his knew it his digits had assumed the proper hand signs.

Nehan Shoja no Jutsu [Temple of Nirvana Technique]
Rank: A-rank.
Skill: GenJutsu.
Effect: A Technique that is used in a large sum of an area in which creates a drowsing state by shutting down the waking nerve senses within the human body, making the human body feel sleepy. A Technique that is used to make a large sum of bodies fall into a deep slumber. The slumber is so grand that a large ruckas or explosion would not be capable of waking the sleepers.
Special: Hand seals.
Drawback: The greatest Drawback of this technique is that Kai is capable of dispelling the technique in a soft fashion if the opponent is capable of identifying what is happening all around within the time period. This technique takes two rounds in order to complete.
Description: Large like feathers appear as the vision of those all around. The feathers is used as a distraction in which the technique comes forth to help the opponent feel relaxed and come under the feel of sleepy and the need of sleep. As this occurs the opponent then falls into a deep sleep and is unable to be waken up unless the GenJutsu wears out or the opponent dispells the technique for another opponent in order to wake them up. If the user is a GenJutsu Non Specialist the user is capable of using this technique in a fifty meter radius. If the user is a GenJutsu Specialist they are capable of using this technique within a seventy five meter radius. If the user is a GenJutsu Master they are capable of using this technique within a one hundred meter radius.
Limit: A GenJutsu Technique, Anyone is capable of learning.

Stationed (though a distance from any direct harm) at the epicenter of the port (ship three), his technique would roughly reach two hundred and forty-six feet in all directions from his body, meaning that this easily encompassed three out of five ships, leaving only the two on the outer-edges untouched.

Visual
(Ship 1) Deck 1 (Ship 2) Deck 2 (Ship 3) Deck 3 (Ship 4) Deck 4 (Ship 5)

Bold areas are affected regions.

This would, while affecting the resistance as well, extremely hinder the amount of pressure put on by the opponent’s overwhelming numbers. It was a risk he was willing to take, being as it was a handful of talented shinobi versus mere pirates – the sailors didn’t seem to be making a difference, anyway; nothing more than distractions to the opponent. Physical matter wouldn’t affect this genjutsu either (as people beneath the stadium were even affected, as shown in the series). People within the ships would find themselves deep within slumber, perfect prey for those capable of breaking the genjutsu. This would be the ninja’s chance to strike swiftly and effectively, slaughtering all of the opposition whiles the slept.

It would happen immediately, without warning – they would be lulled by the soft and gentle feathers, before all went black.

OOC: The Temple of Nirvana technique can be assumed to have happened after the "raining death" collided against the port (which puts you in the clear, Pandoru). Actions after that (merely moments) will / should be affected by the genjutsu; please, take this into consideration people.

[adero]

As Nyzu continued to sit atop the roof of the building before the battle, his eyes continue to dart back and forth across the field. Taking note of each and every detail, he sighs momentarily and yawns. Nothing seems to catch his eyes interest wise, yet he takes note in preparation of his actions if the mist nin ever arrive. Looking immediately before him, he stares upon the numerous ships, each now infested with pirates. Watching for a brief moment longer, he catches sight of each pirate. Strange... it seems as though they are going below deck... the cargo... He takes no initiative however, for it is none of his concern. Still standing motionless atop the roof, he eyes each ship carefully and exams the pirate's movements. Are they making a barricade?... Nyzu's eyes dart solely to ship three briefly as he exams the ship. The pirates seemed to be entrapped inside. Over yonder in the distance, Nyzu spots the mayor falling to his knees, the man seems to have been struck in the neck by a bolt.

It was none of his concern however, atleast not yet. As his shifts his view to more immediate sights he stares to the young puppeteer below. Watching her combat the pirates he takes less notice of her and turns with interest to the cloud of gas before him. Eh? What kind of poison is this?... It seems to be causing nausea and other ailments... interesting... His attention was yet again grasped by the puppeteer herself again, for as she threw a kunai, in which Nyzu quickly spotted a tag, she leaped out of the way for some unknown cause. As Nyzu shifted his view to above, he spots several glass gourds plunging from the skies. Shaking his head, he quickly remembers to the smaller gourds that had exploded in the ocean. Tsk, tsk... this may get ugly eh? He still takes no action however as he watches from above as if viewing an opera. Music plays in his ears peacefully as among the shouts and screams of the pirates and ninja their melodious voices provide the harmony. Something seems to trouble him however. Something is still amiss... Where had those gourds come from?... Sighing he turns his head up slowly and begins to scan along the sky. Trying to find the source he shakes his head. No... It had to come from directly above... at such a trajectory it would be the only appropriate path...

Thoughts continued to drift in and out of his mind however as he shrugs and turns his puppet head towards the battle field yet again. It seems the man is gone... Staring towards the golem's pedestal, he looks to see it vacant, below several images of the shinobi continue to hack and slash performing an array of techniques. Eh? But whats this?... Kage bushin?... As he watches the shinboi performing an array of techniques he continues to examine the boy. Tendrils that would soon sprout from below would appear as if the shadows themselves were attacking. Curious at such strange techniques, he would watch vigilantly as the boy and the clones began to disperse himself among the several ships. Each attending to pirates in their own fashion, he would see one approaching the large man and trying to take him out via shushin and an odd assortment of strategies, another would delve for the waters as the last began to initiate several strange hand seals after, if perhaps alive, when the gourd had crashed from the heavens. Wondering what technique this could possibly be, he sits and awaits results, his eyes are still upon the boy while curious. Was he able to avoid the attack?

His attention would soon be quickly taken however by a voice behind him. Not bothering to turn Nyzu smirks in delight as it seemed to him the enemy had approached him. His bald puppet's head remaining motionless in the sun, he hears several brief cold feminine words in his ears. "Excuse me sir. If you don't mind, please state your presence." He remains calm and laughs to himself silently contemplating what to do. Quickly forming performing a puppet eyes technique, he snaps open the third eye at the back of his puppet's head. In doing so, an eerie white pupil would expose itself from the puppet to reveal a young girl standing behind him. No... not an enemy... He thinks as he quickly spots the girl's mist head band. Closing the eye swiftly, he turns Banryu's head towards the girl without shifting his body. His puppet's neck fully rotating 180 degrees, another two white pupils would reveal themselves and stare back at the girl. His face masked by a cloth he hissed back to the girl in an undertone: "Where is Muteki, Muteki Arashi...?" Then saying no more his eyes return to the battlefield and his body remains idle.

[Cirah Ranzatsu]

Rendai continued to stare out at the battle field. 'Hmm, what is this odd language that they are speaking? It doesnt seem to make any sense to me.' He thought. Keeping his eyes on Monzaemon, he was taking in what he was doing with the shadow technique, and his bunshins, that were clear to him that they were probably Kage Bunshins as they were attacking. Sure there were others that could attack, like the Mizu Bunshin, but the leaf shinobi didnt appear to be one who was using the suiton release.

Next he looked at the puppeteer that was wearing no headband atop her head. 'Hmm, she isnt doing a whole lot. She mainly seems to be observing what is going on around her. Its pretty much what I am doing too, but she is in the heat of the battle, while I am away from it, looking upon what is happening. I wonder.... wait, what?' Rendai thought again as she looked up at something that was falling from the sky. The way they were falling made it seem to be hard to see from her position, especially when he saw her squinting. But from his position, he was able to see the gourds.

'Darn, if they were closer, I could use my technique to see through the side of it and look at what it is inside, but I cant. Those look like they have something attached to them though. What is that? Someway to catch it on fire? I dont know, I dont like the looks of this. They need to move out of the way. Darn, how can I help them?' He thought as he pulled out one of his super fletched arrows. Staring at it, he thought of who or what he was going to hit with this. 'Hmmm...My arrow rain attack might work in this situation.' He thought as he continued to think of his move.

'The problem I would have with launching arrow rain is that I may hit one of them. And I dont want to hurt the people I am trying to help. I may just want to hit one person right now.' He thought again as he docked the arrow and pulled back the string of the bow. Taking precise aim, Rendai aimed at one of the pirates on ship. He aimed at the pirate that had shot a bolt at the sky. 'I have a feeling he was the one who issued the attack. Heck, for all I know, he did the attack on his own. But I cant take any chances. I can have him doing it again. I need to take him out with one shot, here and now.' He thought as he checked his aim once more, pulled back to the right angle, and fired, quickly activating his cloak of invisiblity jutsu to conceal his position more, and moving to a different rooftop, not too far away, but far enough away from the battlefield. The arrow was sailing through the air, not in the path of anyone except the man who shot the bolt that had the odd tip. It was aimed straight for his neck, trying to pierce the windpipe, and making his breathing harder as well as making it harder for him to see as he was trying to regulate his breathing. He then kept himself hidden, and thought of a new move to take, and fast.

While he was busy thinking up a new move, he started to see feathers. Many, many feathers floating about. 'What in the world is this? Whoa, feeling rather sleepy. Is this...a...genjutsu? Hmm....Kai!' Thought Rendai as he dispelled the Genjutsu, and noticed it was the other leaf shinobi who was doing this. 'Hmm, he must be trying to get the pirates off guard. I wonder if anyone else will realize this. I guess I will see if I see them dropping.' Then he double checked his Cloak of invisibility, and got back to thinking up his next move.

[Kinz]

Muteki ran across the constantly shifting surface of the water. Though it was not the best footing, Muteki’s constant training on the terrain gave him the necessary abilities to traverse it. He had seen Taiya head off towards shore, taking a much less direct though much safer and smarter route. In all honesty, Muteki should have joined her, but he was not the “smart” plan type. Muteki was more the “stupid more action” type. He was nearing the dock, coming at a high rate of speed, approaching the left most ship (ship 5. I am on the opposite side as everyone else). He was hearing the ring of metal on metal, and the thunk of arrows striking home. It was a symphony of war.

Apparently whoever was already there holding them off wasn’t doing a very good job of it. The docks were crawling with the scum. These pirates in their masks. They smelled as if a rabid dog left a “present” in their cloths and the smell only intensified. It seemed that none had taken notice of his approach to the back end of ship 5, and he began his climb up the side. He feet transitioned seamlessly from the waters surface, to the vertical wooden wall of the hull. He approached the top and peered through the gap in a railing only to see a much larger then average pirate fending off what seemed to be crewman.

Though stealth was always the best option in these scenarios, Muteki could not contain himself. His years living with his bloodlimit had left him careless and without the sense of the word caution. When one has the ability to withstand the amount of damage he could, one gains such…quarks. Without a moments hesitation, Muteki leapt from the side of the ship straight into the air, and landed on one of the smaller sails masts toward the back of the ship. He was nearly directly above the large pirate, who seemed to be winning his encounter with the crew. Muteki could not resist the urge to perform his soon to be trademark intimidating move.

Standing on his left foot, with his right lifted off the ground and being bent at the knee. Muteki stretched both his arms out to their sides, with the palms out. He angled his body towards the pirate and roared with tenacity, “Behold!!! Cower before the site of the one who is called I am. Behold the fury and power of the star from the west, the bringer of death and destruction to those that oppose my village. Behold the Invincible Storm of the Hidden Mist, Muteki Arash…..” At the end of Muteki’s sentence he was cut off by an overly loud crashing sound. He looked in the direction of the port, and from the source of the disturbance came an inferno of doom.

The flames rose and soared over the ports open areas. It created an intense heat that Muteki personally did not enjoy, and to top it all off… the flames had startled him so much he lost his already unsure footing. Muteki went toppling off the mast. His arms and legs flailed as he attempted to grasp for something to no avail. Muteki plummeted towards the deck, and Muteki crashed into the midst of a pile of empty crates and previously coiled rope.

To any observers, Muteki would be beneath an amount of weak wood, and have pieces of rope strewn over him. Though most of him was easily visible, he was surely a sight to behold now.

[Itaru]

Whipping his body to the right, Itaru was able to evade the oncoming attack made by these pirates. The crossbow just barely sliced open his flesh, allowing blood to drizzle from his right forearm. Applying pressure, Itaru took a glance round the area to get a better understanding of the terrain. He would now reveal himself, however stare straight through the hinderance within the air. Eyes set on the cause of the chaos. Their crossbows were to be feared, but Itaru would need to evade them as best he could. Sliding to the right again, Itaru began a few hand signs. "Hirameki no Jutus." A voice spoke, and a blinding flash of light appeared throughout the area.

Raiton: Hirameki no Jutsu (Lightning Flash)
Rank: D
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Causes a blinding flash that can disorientate enemies (up to 10m)
Special: Rat
Drawback: ---
Description: The user holds the rat handseal and closes their eyes, gathering chakra into them. The user then opens them suddenly, and emits an extremely bright flash from their eyes that can temporarily blind and/or disorientate enemies. The blinding effect usually lasts one turn.
Limit: Lightning Release

Itaru threw his arm over his eyes to shield himself. During the time these pirates would be annoyed by the flash of light, Itaru would then unsheathe his kusari-gama and slash at the opponents he could clearly see through the mist. He wouldn't be sure just who exactly he was attempting to take out. 'Where's Pandoru? He needed find her and keep her safe. But what was this strange feeling? Even in the heat of battle, could Itaru be becoming tired? His eyelids seemed to demand to fall over his sights. He wasn't sure if they would dominate over him or not...

(Sorry it's so short, I got a terrible block. ><)

[👺 Usiel]

Alright, I get to make my what really happens post. Now I ask for specifics for reasons, and since specifics were not made, consequences occur. For that a "What Really Happens" post happens. No complaining, no bitching, read what is done, read techniques, suffer consequences

Currently Listening to : Pirate Theme and Pirate Theme2 Doing a little time line thing to add in some story into this little battle. So what will be written will be during when the ships first come in and etc, then everything will be caught up. Also I am going to have to give distances here as well, not to mention state how large these ships are since people believe that if you are on the floor you can see what is on top.

Ships: Length: 95 m ; Width: 13 m ; Depth: 7.5 m ; Grossreg. ton: 2376 tons ; Netreg. ton: 2114 tons ; Cargo: 4050 tons ; Length of main mast: 50 m ; Total area of sails: 3240 m² ; Area of square sails: 2450 m²

Dock: Lengths: 50 m ; Width: 13 m

"Man those gourds," yelled out a pirate warrior as he quickly spat along the ship deck. Eyes glarring out left and right as he grumbled to himself "Aye lass, everyone get ready," the sounds of rutters could be heard as the sky seemed somewhat misty. Vision was unknown, and unseen. There was a heavy burden to where it was quite difficult to see ten feet past the human eye. The sounds of footsteps along the decks of a ship could be heard as they all scurried around moving past people here and there trying to get their rightful places. "Wait till t' signal lads," yelled out the same harsh man. This man was a strong warrior, a strong pirate. A Large Beard white like the snow, he was big, somewhat buff large, a type of man that would not really exist. Some would mistake him as a kind man if he did not scream out his orders so much.

"Mr. Snye, are the gourds in preperation," spoke out a soft spoken woman, with a hint of order and leadership within. Through a flight of stairs a young woman slowly walked down. The harsh boots placed against the planked wood as the warrior looked about. A young woman with a nice ironed long sleeved coat with fur frail along the top. Pants that reached all the way down tucked within the boots black in color. Her hat, was that of a captain's hat as her hair was the color of a cool red fire. Reaching to the bottom she gave a little nod placing her nimble like hand against her ear as if listening to something. A little nod occured. "Alright." she spoke out softly, then once more in more of a loud voice. "Alright you lady pushing pansies the gourds let them sail" she quickly yelled out as the warrior gave out a loud yell. The warriors quickly slammed their bodies against the gourds as they sailed off of the ship falling straight down (This has already happened guys just showing how it happened). "Alright Mr. Bootstrap desend us down below. Man the Anchors we take refuge, get ready to start our desend." she yelled out as she placed her hands behind her back. "First team will be divided up into two, five men will go down anchor one, second team will go down anchor two." she continued to give out her orders as she felt the sudden sensation that her stomach was moving up towards her throat as the deck began to tilt slightly.

Two warriors moved to the opposite sides of their ships one took a seat on what looked like a large harpoon. The Wire was the size of a foot in diameter, as the other did the same along the other side of the front end of the ship waiting for what was going to happen, waiting for some sort of clearing to take their shot.

"Mr. Bootstrap when you see land, stop the desend, and then pull up when the men are down." she yelled out greatly as the ship moved down from the heavens.

The greatness the wonderful view of what a true unexpected battle has occured. Her reaching back taking out the kunai and flinging it, it moved in all of its brilliance. The Kunai sailed forth as something happened along the docks behind the young woman as she was concentrating on the two in front. Four warriors, four pirates quickly jumped from the water onto the deck as the comrads in front fell to the ground from her poison attacks. They saw a building that was in front of Ship one. They needed to take cover. With their speed, with their capability and knowledge of speed, being those who worked with their muscles all day they dashed towards this one room with greatness in such of a blur as one reached into his pouch next to his sword seeing something he did not like. As the kunai fell to the ground, the explosion indeed happened. It was even better then what the young woman could ever expect. One warrior flew off slamming into the water, the other warrior, the kunai as shrapnel slammed into his back as he flew off hitting the floor in a harsh tone as one of the clones ran behind the warriors as well to pick up what would be left off.

Down Below where everything was occuring in such a blindness and speed. The young Pandoru moved as the gourd slammed behind her, in a brilliance the gourd shattered as the animal fat splattered all around in a giant wave, as the fat and oil pushed forth the flame made its contact as in one movement one moment a twenty foot radius of flames was created. As the young woman rushed everything was moving about at the same time, at one swift movement. It was a blur how everything was occuring at the same time. The way it moved it seemed everything was somewhat planned or horribly coincidental, the two people running to provide a distraction, the gourd to keep her occupied. There was something watching over these pirates that was for sure.

With Monzaemon the first clone that moved about the Shadow Sewing spewed forth hitting their targets as they quickly gargled in pain feeling the sudden rush of the attack within their bodies. The grim and agonizing death was apparent towards them as the Mayor slowly stood up still with a bolt through his neck. Taking a few steps he would take hold of one of the bodies as he would rip it from the shadows. Four Pirates would jump along Deck three as they quickly rushed forth running with their speed as the Mayor took one large swing hurling the dead pirate, slamming its body into the four pirates as they quickly fell onto the floor with ease. The way he moved about it seemed as if the pirate was that of a heavy pillow.

The second clone came about moving into Ship five where the large man was located at. He was indeed busy at the time. A sailor rushed towards the man as he took his guard. The sailor made his quick movement as the sailor threw a fast jabbing punch. Taking hold of the punch the warrior turned the sailor around as he slammed the sailor's face against the side of the wall. At this time, that was when Monzaemon high, and Muteki Arashi passing the man. The ship was on fire as it burnned brilliantly, the fire slowly began to eat through the wood, slowly spreading through the very ship. As the blade was thrusted forward it quickly thrashed into the skull of the man as Muteki Arashi made his antics to only find the large man slamming along the deck floor, dead in its pass.

Now for the real Monzaemon one would have to take into consideration of many factors. One a gourd the size of a human body slamming down filled with oil and animal fat, a coctail bomb that would ooze out fire in its pure glory that is capable of blanketing a radius of twenty feet. A gourd of its size would be capable of killing a man if it would land directly on a person but it would not be capable of sending someone flying off into the distance past the twenty feet. It was a gourd, a fragile gourd, not a meteor flying into the ground at speeds past the movement of sound. With that saying as the gourd slammed forth what actually happened is that the oil slams into the warrior Monzaemon in all of its glory as the fire would come in a massive rush and glory. One must take into the consideration of how concentrated and how fast oil can heat up in an open flame and fire, with something that can blanket a twenty foot radius. Fire, something that is capable of reaching temperatures to melt human flesh, temperature to burn clothing in great speeds. When the skin is on fire, the nerves shut down, the muscles spasses out, and the body goes into shock, this occurrs towards the young warrior Monzaemon to where the body is engulfed in flames in all of its brilliance. The Nirvana technique was never capable of occurring, and if it was, then the pirates would have been still running around for it takes twelve seconds for it to be complete and have them fall asleep. For a body to burn in flames, and since the original body is taking damage, the clones puff into smoke disappearing, as the giant gollem becomes no more because of the lack of concentration that occurs. How could someone concentrate from this, from their body being on fire.

As the body of Monzaemon burned in its brilliance a few things have happened. The warriors would reach the reach the outer wall of the building in front of Ship one if not attended. With that saying something would come dowm from the sky within the clouds. There, the warriors would see a massive sized ship, a ship of epic proportions as it sailed down. The ship looked more like a blimp filled with air with proppellers along the sides as it seeped through the clouds. Massive sized anchors shoot down diagnolly towards the ground as one anchor slammed into the cargo building that the first two pirates that were blown to smitherins were on their way to, another off along a building in front of ship three. This happened as the warriors would hopefully make it to that building as five warriors along each wire began to sail down along the wire anchors slidding down with their hard metalic bottom boots floating down towards the ground.

The arrow that was shot by Rendai Zunshando slammed into the warrior that aimed against the sky. His body fell down like a ton of bricks falling dead as the other pirate's eyes widen trying to push the man. He looked around trying to figure out exactly what was going on. The warriors down along within the ships were still heading towards the cargo areas with their no resistance while the two pirates that hit resistance quickly launched a barrage of arrows pushing forward little by little.

A flash occured from somewhere, that the pirates did not see, the warriors along the ground including the mayor's eyes were blinded. Warriors were blinded as they could not see except for the ones sailing down along the wires and the ones to enter a building which would be considered along the side of the building, not in front of the building where it would be directly in front of the first ship along the docks. The door was being worked on by one of the warriors as the other moved near the front end of the building but not directly in front, for he stayed by the side. Pulling out from his pouch looked like that of another pouch with metalic objects wrapped around the creation. With one movement he quickly hurled the pouch upwards into the air pass the roof somewhat heading towards the frontal end of the building as the pirate dived into the building as it sailed into the air. Just as he dove in the creation exploded forth. It was a pouch, a pouch with mass explosion capability capable of destroying a vast large room. The metallic objects were ball barings wrapped around the whole pouch. The Ball barings were hurled in all directions in one fast movement in a sphereic form. The balls would rip through creations of wood, piercing into stone objects as it would sail off with one blinding explosion. Two warriors would jump from the dock one as they would just meet their end as the balls would pierce into their bodies sending them backwards back into the water dead before the scent of combat to occur. The question would be, who was standing along this building? Why would this happen? Why on this building, the fact of the matter was, this was where the two Mist warriors stood watching, and the Pirates took some action.

OOC: I acknowledge my clones completions and their demise, I just wanted to get this post over with. The fire was behind him, so his "frontal view" was not hindered by the fire - I stated this as he would've been lying on his front. And yes, the genjutsu was not activated.

Fuck...

He'd miscalculated just exactly what was falling, and upon his movement has was in fact hit by splash damage - but not of the ordinary kind. The oils from the gourds would in fact land upon the shinobi (and they are ignited), thusly it was fire that touched with Monzaemon's back [not the force I once typed that would throw him forward], burning his cloths.

Luckily, common knowledge aided in his simultaneous reaction; it saved him a lot of drama, honestly.

You see [you can look at the image in his profile] that the jacket's collar covers nearly all [except the front] of the neck, and over and under it his hair would follow. This material [the flak jacket] is thick and wouldn't be easily burned through, especially by this oil. This would innately protect the flesh of his neck from any severe damage; his body was safe (for the most part) as though clothes do burn quickly, the fire was put out before anything serious could happen, as soon as it had touched the youth [you can't mistake fire for any other pain - thus his resolve was a rather hasty one]. There would be no glorious fire or human torch, no - simply a man whom had fire upon his rear who then vanished instantly.

Doton - Shinjuu Zanshu no Jutsu [Double Suicide Decapitation Technique]
Rank: D-rank.
Skill: NinJutsu / TaiJutsu.
Effect: A technique where the user hides within the ground for a brief moment to surprise attack the opponent from under ground.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: The user takes the time to push into the ground by using their Earth Release. The user pushes into the ground quickly so that to be used against the opponent later on. The user at this point can not neccessarily move within the ground at this moment, but the user does know by feel of when an opponent is right above. When an opponent is right under the user reaches up to take the opponent and drag them back down to the ground in one fell swoop without movement or notice. The opponent is unable to move for one post and the user is capable of slamming out of the ground with one movement.
Limit: Needs the Earth Release.

The dirt of the earth surrounding his entire body would snuff the fire out effortlessly [due to lack of substantial oxygen for the fire to burn and dirt > fire; this would not hinder his breathing]. Furthermore, the oil fueling the fire would be absent within his earthen haven. His pants and shirt [long-sleeved, like kakashi and all other shinobi; I've never seen one with no sleeves in the "standard issued setup"] would be seared, and the sting of where the oil had burned through would remain with him for some moments after [random locations, as them burning through the cloth alerted him].

Nothing too life threatening, a few minor burns that would hinder him slightly due to the pain when moving - he would continue momentarily.

[pandoru]

An almost foreign expression came across the teens face as her chest heaved, panting for breath as the rush of events had left her bordering on a feeling of panic. The slightest twitch at the edge of her mouth, putting a small, satisfied grin upon her features. Successful, the attack had been, and more so than she had hoped for it to be. For that attack to work so perfectly, she supposed the burning area of land around her was a fair trade-off. Of course, the limited mobility it also provided her with was… less excellent, but the puppeteer was sure she would find a way to adjust. Rather, she’d have to, if she didn’t want her creation to go up in a blaze, along with the whole of her being.

‘Blaze…’ That reminded her. Surely these fiends didn’t drop just one of those gourds? Where had the others landed? Breathing have returned itself to a more natural level, Pandoru’s eyes quickly began to glance around. Fire was everywhere, making this battlefield all the more dangerous, littering the floor and... Fallen men? Her eyes widened, and the girl dared to step away from her puppet for only a moment, hardly creating a foot of distance between herself and the wooden mantis “Monzae-,” her concerned cry was cut short, the sound of firing bolts making her senses kick into overdrive once again, feeling as if the projectiles may be coming her way. Her body turned, facing the ships once more with Seikiri to guard her. It seemed though, that she wasn’t the target of these pirates. Their bolts shot off into the distance, causing the girls brow to furrow. Had they seen something she hadn’t…? Most likely. With all this activity, the thought that the kunoichi could keep track of everything was ridiculous. Of course, that didn’t mean she wouldn’t try.

Her main concern remained on the sky. While she could see what was happening on the floor, the mysterious dropping of those gourds had risen her curiosity to an almost dangerous level. The girl’s mind wouldn’t be satisfied until she learned where, or rather what, they had come from. And it would seem that in those moments it took her to ponder the idea, her questions would be answered. “… what?” Though the idea of flight wasn’t a foreign concept to the Iwa-nin, she hadn’t exactly seen any flying contraptions until today. The fingers on her right hand clenched into a fist, as the clay that the mouth had been chewing pressed the clay out from between its lips. She would need her own wings for this, and wings were in supply for the Sankuchi. Digits and tongue alike worked together to mold the porcelain clay into a creature more fit for the kunoichi’s needs.

’If it can fly…’ As wires and anchors dropped from the blimp, the girl’s hand whipped forward, sending the sculpture flying from her grip and up into the sky. As the limb returned back, it slapped together with her other hand. The motion was swift, hardly a fraction of a second passing between the clay leaving her hand and the formation of the handsign, causing a thin cloud of smoke to appear and vanish, and from it, a great bird would fly, large enough for a human to sit comfortably on, but this was not for her to ride on, oh no. The creatures fate had already been sealed, and its target set in stone. The will of the redhead was all that was needed to keep the creature on target, and with the ship in place by the anchors it had dropped, moving it at the speed needing to effectively dodge the swiftly flying creature would be extremely difficult… especially when the chakura infused fowl was heading towards the center of the blimp portion of this ship. ’… it can fall.’

Detonating at will was normally her method of choice, but at these distances, she couldn’t judge. The artwork of her clan however, was also known for exploding on its own if it collided with enough force. And collide it would do if nothing was done, exploding with enough force to take down doors and some walls, and release enough energy to cause second degree burns to those in its radius. Not the strongest of explosions by any means, that, combined with the size of the bomb, should have been enough to at least create a decent sized hole in the machine. With its air supply draining, it would fall, taking everyone on board down with it. The teen could only hope all occurred with no major complications.

A blinding flash interrupted the thought process of the puppeteer, and her arms lifted to shield her face. A poor move perhaps in the eyes of another shinobi, as one was taught to never take their eyes off of the opponent. Weakness was shown; an opening, but in this state of blindness, one could not easily take advantage. After all, if she couldn’t see, others were likely having great difficulty with it as well. Arms were moved and an eye was cracked, silhouettes being the figures that the girls eyes settled upon. Whatever was occurring was on the opposite side of the port, making her visibility even more limited. It seemed however that some kind of… object had been tossed up into the air. Already widened hues seemed to grow that much larger, and suddenly Pandoru felt like she should be doing a bit more than just standing around. Something along the lines of ‘taking cover’ perhaps. Though she couldn’t even begin to image what the thing was that had been released, as her feet pounded along the ground, the girl was convinced that she didn’t want to know if it involved learning through experience. By this point, she had gathered that if it was set up by one of these pirates, it likely exploded in some way.

The cargo hold near the fifth ship would be her protection, throwing both herself and her puppet into the building as an explosion rang throughout the air. The urgency to get inside had caused the threads to disconnect, and the young ninja to fall rather harshly onto her front. Stinging scrapes now littered her body, but it was a small price to pay for her life. Objects were clattering harshly to others on the outside, and as the girl began to pant once more, she took this time to count her blessings and think. She crawled, keeping low but bringing herself closer to her puppet, should the need for a quick attack arise. She was alive… but as it currently was, they were failing their mission. The cargo was being taken from both storehouse and ship alike, and one of the ships was burning.

’Come on Pandoru… think!’ she scolded herself, flinching slightly at her own harsh words. They came from both sky and sea. However, if her previous attack had worked, they certainly wouldn’t be leaving by sky. That left one other thing… the ships that still hadn’t placed themselves in her vision. If their main form of transportation was taken out, then they couldn’t escape with anything. Again though, the issue was how. Too much pressure for a single kunoichi to deal with, that was for sure. Another bird could be made, but surely the pirates wouldn’t simply allow her to fly out to sea and destroy their main ships. ’… Take out who can be taken out.’ The effects of her poison weren’t permanent after all. If she wanted to take advantage of it, she’d have to move, and she’d have to move quickly. Truthfully, she feared setting foot outside the safety of the building, but if she hesitated any longer, they were going to come to her instead. Besides, the lack of repetitive clacks and cries was a strange way of reassuring her that whatever had been launched from that bomb had subsided.

She got to her feet, flicking her wrist quickly to reattach the threads to her puppet. A sway of her hand and the swift movement of her fingers placed the puppet in front of her once more, drawing the poisoned blades in its arms as she allowed the puppet to lead her out.

[adero]

Still standing atop the two story building along its front face facing towards the docks, Nyzu sits atop along it's edge watching the epic battle. Though the other nin seemed to be struggling he seemed to shift about contently near the building's peak watching with pleasure. His eyes continue to shift about pleasingly as he sees the puppeteer's kunai setting off, a magnificient light show for sure. As she dived and dodged the bomb he shifted his views over to another of the resistance. It seemed the leaf nin he had spotted earlier in his err of carelessness had caught himself on fire. What ever technique he had casted... it must be gone no? Then as he turned back the nin was gone, poof, vanished. What on earth?... As he stared back towards the hole, he sighed and nodded. Earth jutsu... I should keep in mind how it looks... Aye, this battle was not a mission for Nyzu but an opportunity. One for the takings as he abused and used every aspect of his time to watch the battle below and to memorize his soon to be enemies' techniques.

As he continued his vigilant watch, Nyzu spots several other things while sitting atop the building. Looking far to the left, he ignores the mist kunoichi behind him and catches sight of Muteki Arashi along ship 5. What seemed to be some comical dance led to his fall among the ship's deck somewhere into the crates. Sighing Nyzu shakes his head and chuckles. So they have all arrived... Diverting his views, he looks up as he sees a speck glimmering before his eyes. A pirate drops dead near ship five as he turns his puppet's jittering neck towards the roof of a nearby building. Down by ship 5 atop another building it seems the archer had finally made a shot, a lethal killing blow. Taking note of his aim and distance Nyzu keeps this in mind as he scans the battle field and spots yet another shinobi. It seemed that he was quite less active than his companions for a bolt had glided into his arm and slit his flesh.

As Nyzu had finally seen enough of the battle he would step towards the side of the building as if to hop off. Before however, yawning while above the roof now facing the side, Nyzu would begin to speak to the kunoichi behind him. Not taking notice as to whether she was still there or not his words were brief and hissed, as if each breath was labored and pained. "Aid Muteki..." Before he could say more however, he would hear spot several warriors below each bustling about the building. Odd... what on earth? Nyzu thought little more however as he shifted himself closer to the side's edge. That man... at the corner... Cutting off his words, he would say nothing to his fellow mist nin but rather dissipate as a man below reached into his pockets and pulled out what seemed to be a pouch... wrapped in some form of metals?

Taking both his puppet Banryu and himself away, Nyzu would quickly shushin back 20 feet with respect to the dock behind the back edge of the brick building. Allowing gravity to take care of the rest, he would freefall behind the back wall of the brick building letting the structure between him and the bomb shield him. Landing with a graceful thud, Nyzu found himself in a back ally behind the buildings of the docks. His eyes were still weary however. As the explosion resounded in his ears, he imagined hundreds of shards of metal flying everywhere, his eyes scanned not for his ally atop the building with him who he had not warned, but rather for enemies hidden in the back allys of the street he now found himself in.

Another explosion was soon to be heard as well. Looking up towards the skies a small bird shaped thing would soar towards what seemed to be an airship. As Nyzu continued to progress through the back ally, he would trot slowly over to ship four and emerge out of the ally in the front docks by ship four. Watching the explosion take place above, he smirked at the brilliance and destruction of the bomb, hopefully it had succeeded. But what is it?... Standing in the ally connecting the backs of the buildings and the docks he would watch patiently as the battle raged on. Surveying the area he would continue to analyze the situation as he peered through the eyes of Banryu. Looking directly towards the ship four before him, he would spot two men along the docks, each strapped with more glass like gourds to their chests. Beyond on the ship it seemed the sailors had gotten wise and barricaded while the pirates remained between the stairs and main hallway. His eyes returned to the two pirates along the docks however strapped with gourds. They must die... In his mind these words were started, yet his logic was to a higher degree. As he confirmed his thoughts to himself inside the puppet Nyzu would begin to form the hand seal of the ox. Quid pro quo, no? In doing so, Nyzu would use the same jutsu twice, each time setting a spark afire inside a gourd strapped on each man's chest, hopefully causing the gourds to break and set afire upon their bodies while soaking them in their own abominations.

[Chaos]

Taiya took her eyes off of the man for a second. The battle raged on. She saw things falling from the sky and then they suddenly erupted in to flames. She looked back as she thought she saw something on the back of the man's head. And then... it happened. The man's had made a complete 180 turn and was looking at Taiya, Taiya would have been even more grossed out if she hadn't noticed distinct differences. He looked real but some things just weren't right. The man's face was emotionless, he was pale white with motionless, white eyes. His face made no wrinkles and no movement as he spoke with his mouth and nose hidden by the piece of cloth. His brows didn't move as a normal human's would. Taiya could only conclude that this wasn't the real man and that it was only a fake.

"Who are you....?"

He knew who Muteki was. who could this man possibly be? He obviously wasn't drunk and wasn't a pirate. This appearance wasn't even his true form. Taiya watched as the fake man ignored her and viewed the battle. She was commanded to aid Muteki from him. It would've been nice if he revealed himself or gave some insight on who he was. But before any questions could be answered something caught her eye and Adero used a shunshin. Acting without thinking Taiya did the say to appear over the side of the building. She saw that it was some sort of a bomb and caught a glimpse of Adero falling behind the building. The bomb exploded and she hear tiny, shattered pieces collide with numerous objects.

"Damn it!"

Taiya looked out over the beach to see dock one being over-run with pirates. She looked back behind the alleyway where Adero had landed and heard grunts and heard some strange noise, whoever he was he could obviously handle himself.

Taiya rushed out of the alley next to the building, not noticing the damage of the bomb. Taiya heard crashing. Anchors had hit the ground with huge noises, letting everyone know what was coming. Taiya looked up as she was running to see a ship coming down. That was what dropped the bombs earlier and it couldn't be very good. As Taiya reached dock one while dodging flames and pirates. She leaped at a pirate and kicked off of his head, grasping the rail to ship one. People, friend or foe, were running about fighting. People were going below deck to get at the cargo, stealing it o saving it. Taiya leaped down the steps not knowing what was down there. Even if the only one, Taiya would be that one saving the cargo.

Shunshin: 2/3
