[JiMmIyZ - Hel]

(OOC: You could make the argument that I should roll to identify that Minoru was lying though I'm trying to state that the Daimyo's son was involved with why Toshiro was not present and he had prior knowledge.)

Fortunately for Minoru the average security guards and fighters were not that smart and fell for his ruse without much of a fuss. However they would not run away from the arena, instead they'd run toward it, the security guards shouting something about the bastard being dead. The Daimyo's son however would remain in the fighters room on his own with Minoru. He would not be interested in following the others out of the room nor would he be interested in fleeing the area. He would however grab the hilt of his sword and take up a fighting stance. "Interesting... Interesting that Toshiro, the man known as the most brutal of the Yujime brothers, known as a man who would never run from an opponent, would well, run from an opponent. Interesting more still is that he would even be here after I hired Amarante, Chief of the Konoha Military Police, to arrest him for the sole purpose of me taking his place in this tournament." He would take a slight step forward, still in his stance and bearing down his pressure upon Minoru. "Interesting that a thirty three year old man would look so young as well" at that point he would take a further step forward before charging forward, his sword still in his sheath. He was now clearly attacking Minoru with deadly intent.

[Minoru Hyuuga]

((OOC: I decided to write the distance in this post since you did not state it))

'What a bunch of idiots' thought the male when all the fighters in the room plus the security guards ran towards the arena. The only thing left to do was to get the daimyo's son out of here.
"Interesting... Interesting that Toshiro, the man known as the most brutal of the Yujime brothers, known as a man who would never run from an opponent, would well, run from an opponent. Interesting more still is that he would even be here after I hired Amarante, chief of the Konoha Military Police, to arrest him for the sole purpose of me taking his place in this tournament." muttered the young man.

He would take a slight step forward, still in his stance and bearing down his pressure upon the younger male. "Interesting that a thirty three year old man would look so young as well" stated the daimyo's son.
'CRAP. Guess that's what I get for not choosing my disguise more wisely' thought Minoru. He decided to speak with him first in order to calm him down.

The Chuunin hid his hands under the sweater in order to disguise his hand seals. "Please listen to me. I'm not here to fight you.
All that I'm asking you to do is to leave this place with me. If you come with me, you won't get in any trouble with the ANBU's that are going to be here any minute" told the male.

He hoped that the other man would not attack him while he was talking. That would give him enough time to start his illusion. But if the daimyo's son attacked him, the black-haired guy would use his nankan to predict his movements. The guy had time to prepare a lower ranked jutsu since the distance between them was about ten meters. And the jutsu of his choice would be the same one that knocked out the leader of this fighting club.

SPOILER: Click to show

The acting skill was an attempt to convince the guards plus the other fighters. As for the Toshiro-daimyo's son connection, I wasn't 100% sure.


Remaining time of henge: 25 minutes.


Jutsus used:

Jissenetoku (Combat perception).
Rank: “A” Rank.
Skill: Taijutsu.
Effect: By analyzing and keeping an eye on the opponent's shoulder and foot work the user is able to predict movements and grab a feel of when attacks are going to come by making the buredono kenseijin - blade of the sword saint a more proficient fighter.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user is only capable of predicting movements’ one rank below then what they have learned. The user is only capable of predicting movements that are taijutsu based. Any other type of movements cannot be predicted.
Description: The way this technique works is that the user observes certain points of areas of the opponent's body such as the shoulders, thighs, and hips. Since attacks are focused on these points they are capable of making educational guesses towards points of contact that may occur within these certain points. This type of technique is a study where the user is capable of watching an opponent's movements for a brief moment of time predicting taijutsu techniques. When the user first learns this technique, they are capable of predicting techniques of “D” rank capability. When the user learns the “B” rank version of this technique, they are only capable of predicting techniques of “C” rank capability. When the user learns the “A” Rank version of this technique, they are only capable of predicting techniques of “B” Rank capability.
Limit: Must learn from a master of buredono kenseijin - blade of the sword saint.

Unable to change their sense of smell. Unable to change their chakra signature. Once the user is hit this technique is dispelled.
Description: Using this technique, the user assumes the form of a creature of same
size category as they are or smaller. User may freely designate the specifics of his new form
(such as height, weight, hair texture and color, skin tone, etc.) User doesn't change their movements, nor handseals speed. In the new form user keeps all their normal abilities unless they use a limb or body part that doesn't exist within the current form. This means the user cannot use any technique unless the body form allows it. User may create equipment so the new form may carry so long as they are not complicated items, or use chakra (master crafted items, gadgets, explosives, summoning scrolls, etc). User is not automatically proficient in them and their physical strength is not the same as the item. Any part of the body or piece of equipment that is separated from the whole reverts to its true form. Technique lasts 10 minutes per class level.
Limit: Universal ninjutsu technique.

Henge-nin (Transformation endurance). Has learned it 3 times.
Rank: “C” Rank.
Skill: Ninjutsu.
Effect: A technique that strengthens the endurance of lasting in the henge no jutsu (transformation technique).
Special: “Handseals”.
Drawback: Must learn multiple times.
Description: Allows the user to endure multiple hits while transformed before reverting to their normal state. When 1st learned the user is capable of enduring a “D” rank attack worth of damage before reverting back to their original form. The 2nd time learned the user is capable of enduring a “C” rank worth of damage attack before reverting back to their original form. The 3rd time learned the user is capable of enduring a “B” rank attack before reverting back to their original form. The endurance applies to any and all other henge type techniques.

Effect: An jutsu when activating allows the user the ability to constantly see chakra.
Special: ---
Drawback: May learn at a maximum of 5 times.
Description: An eye jutsu for the Hyūga clan. When activating the user's eyes dilate in the same white colour as veins bulge out of the corner of the eyes. The user can activate this technique as a “C” Rank technique taking up hand seals. The user is able to see through and thus ignore lighter forms of concealment, such as smoke or mist. The user may concentrate for an amount of hand seals equal to a “C” Rank technique while their byakugan is active to gain the see chakra and see through chakra effects for as long as the user concentrates and their byakugan remains active. Deactivating this ability takes up no movements. When the user learns this technique the first two times, they train it as a regular “C” Rank jutsu. When the user learns this technique the second two times, they train it as a “C” Rank jutsu +10 training points.

The duration of this technique lasts for as long as the user concentrates plus an additional 5 rounds. This technique may be negated. The bright, shifting pattern of lights created by a somnolent pattern causes creatures to fall into a deep sleep, similar to the effects of a sleep jutsu, except that nothing can awaken the affected creatures until the jutsu ends. Hitting or wounding an affected creature will not awaken it. The creatures within the area of effect that whom have the lowest class level to the user are affected first by the jutsu. Sightless creatures are not affected by this jutsu, nor are creatures that do not sleep.

Some maintain that this skill was created in order to combat the Sharingan. The user can only use this technique five times a day when first learned. Each time it is learned again, the user can use it one extra time per day.

The shield lasts as long as the user holds the snake seal or until it reaches terminal radius. Anyone coming into contact with the shield will be thrown back five meters and suffer general paralysis and involuntary motion for one round. The shield can withstand one “C” rank attack before further attack disrupts it. Tangible elements without strong electromagnetic fields (doton and mokuton) pass through this without difficulty.
Limit: Must have raiton.

[JiMmIyZ - Hel]

In an instant the Daimyo's son would vanish from view for a sight second, reappearing before him in an instant, while Minoru spoke. "If the ANBU arrive I'll have them kill you!" he boomed as he'd remove his grip from his sword and instead opt to throw a punch at the now very close Minoru. The Daimyo's son would be too close for Minoru to avoid if he tried to continue with his jutsu and he would suffer a punch to the face which would knock him slightly off balance. The Daimyo's son would then follow through with a basic vertical slash from his sword in an attempt to finish Minoru quickly, aiming for the young mans chest region. The blow would not be enough to end him however though it would cause a great deal of damage if it were to hit.

[Minoru Hyuuga]

'WHAT!?' thought the male as he saw the other guy perform a movement similar to one he had done himself moments ago. He immediately sent some of the chakra to his tenktesus in order to prepare himself.
The daimyo's son was now barely a meter in front of him. "If the ANBU arrive I'll have them kill you!" shouted the older male. He had no time to do a ninjutsu with the daimyo's son so close to him...it was time for action.

Minoru noticed his right arm move straight forwards in a punch. He quickly stepped to the left in order to avoid the attack. The young man then kicked the opponent's right arm while he sent some chakra to his own left arm.
The Chuunin then grabbed the other guy's right elbow so he could not use it. Since he was standing on his opponent's right side, he was out of the range for his sword plus that he had control of the (most likely) dominant arm.

The male then stepped behind the male's back while holding the right elbow with a strong grip. This would make it a lot harder for the daimyo's son to hit him. He then slammed his left hand right in the centre of his opponent's spine.
The black-haired guy would let go of the elbow right after the kuushou had made contact. His jutsu was probably knock out his opponent since they were standing close, but it would not kill him due to the strength of the technique.

SPOILER: Click to show

Since Minoru has the jissenetoku plus his byakugan active, he is able to see the daimyo's son move. This combined with the nankan should make him able to react fast enough to the initial punch.

[JiMmIyZ - Hel]

The Daimyo's son would grunt in pain and then slowly drift downward to the ground, unconcious. Minoru's superior fighting ability was on display here as the Daimyo's son was almost unable to detect just what had happened, unable to react to the speed of the youth. From this point onward Minoru would find that there were no more opponents for him to face. With everything happening in the other room, it was pretty much a free ride on his way out as by this point all the spectators would have left the building and all the security forces would be in the main arena, trying to figure out what had happened. Even the guards out the front of the building would be inside now.

{Mission complete, post your outro and then post in the tower}

(OOC: Sorry it took so long to post the last couple of times. I'm dealing with emotions and stuff IRL. It's awful lol.)

[Minoru Hyuuga]

A grunt was heard as the older male felt to the ground. 'Looks like my plan worked! Better get him out of here as soon as I can' thought the male as he lifted up the daimyo's son.
Minoru saw that the guards had escaped, so he had no time to waste. He half-dragged the other guy out of the building while trying to stay hidden.

The guy got to the entrance of the city when the ANBU agent who had saved him earlier appeared. He was sure it was her due to her chakra network. The Chuunin undid his henge so she could see it was him.
"I followed this man to a run down storage building at the west part of the city. It's quite large and painted in dark purple" told he black-haired guy.

"I managed to knock out Riku with a daiharichakra. Chances are high that he'll die in a couple of hours if he doesn't get help. Here's a note with the battle arrangements" informed the guy as he handed her the paper sheet.
"Good job Hyuuga-san. Here's your approvement slip" told the agent after she had signed the paper.

"What about him?" inquired Minoru as he looked at the daimyo's son. "I'll take it from here. I think his father wants to see him" replied the female.
"Right...thanks for saving me back there" told the male. He then went straight back to Konohagakure no Sato with the mission slip.
