Ironhide, Lesser
Rank: "D"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: User can turn theirs or another skin into a resilient skin to negate sneak attacks.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: Range of this technique is touch. Target is 1 creature touched. Duration of this technique is 1 minute per Class Level. The target's skin gains an iron-like resilience. The Jutsu grants a 25% chance that any critical hit or sneak attack that hits the target is negated and the damage from the attack is applied normally (no additional effects).
Limit: Must know Earth Release.

Kitsune knew that he wouldn’t focus too heavily on his Earth chakra as he was already split between too many. But it still had a few Jutsus that gave him a vast versatility to his survival, which is how he can swing above his Rank. He had been reading up on earth Jutsus and found one he really thought help out. It was called Ironhide lesser and had two other variants that would increase their effectiveness. It would keep him from being one shotted and being able to run or fight back.

Kimi extended his chakra into his kunai pouch and started to study the kunais. He felt how they were hard yet had a little give to them. How they could be sharpened to increase their lethality, same as himself and his training. This gave him the beginning of understanding into the Jutsu and how it would work. This Ironhide would be able to change his skin to toughen to prevent critical damage from killing him.

He slowly pulled his chakra back into himself as he understood how he would do this. He pulled the earth chakra up and settled into a layer just over his skin. Then he thinned it out and started to mold into the same structure as Iron. When he had that properly molded he would then allow it to sink into his skin and stay there. This would form a lattice in his first layer of skin that would protect him from some damage.

The clone observed from all angles, including the area behind it while utilising the reflections of its polished shield as it heroically fought on against all odds to find an advantage. Each mirror bore a reflection of Kimi, leaving it impossible to predict which mirror the boy was hiding in. On one hand, this gave Kimi an edge. On the other hand, the clone couldn’t help but lick its lips in excitement. If every mirror bore Kimi’s reflection, then it would be extremely simple to keep track of the boy’s movements.

Patiently waiting and watching, the clone anticipated Kimi striking out with his ranged sickles, only for a Jutsu to be released instead. “Clever boy.” The clone began whistling, once again from a newly generated maw somewhere on its body. However, strangely, there wasn’t just a single whistling sound emanating from the clone. There were several – all with vastly different origin points. Was the clone masking the cast of a single Jutsu with multiple different melodies, or was it casting several Jutsu at once? Whatever the case, the clone intended to leave Kimi guessing and panicking.

Spotting the dragons approach via the reflections of Kimi’s own mirrors and the shield, the clone effortlessly dodged the dragon duo by leaping upwards at the last possible second. However, rather than falling back down, the clone remained suspended in mid-air. The clone knew little of the wooden dragon, but it had plenty of experience with the ice dragon spirit. It knew that it could only fly with average manoeuvrability, while the clone possessed the ability to fly around with perfect manoeuvrability. Combined with the fact that it was naturally faster and possessed better reflexes than the dragons, it would be a simple matter floating through the air to dodge their simplistic biting attacks.

“Huh?” The clone swallowed as its keen hearing caught the sound of something whizzing along the air. Before its brain could even register what the object was, the clone’s shield bearing arm raised and its upper body rotated to allow the large shield to meet with the icy projectile in a action that was fuelled by Armiger instincts alone. “You may wish fire at least ten at once if you want to hit me. Twenty, or thirty if hitting a vital is your goal.” The clone chuckled. Despite the numerous whistling melodies not ending, by the time the arrow had been blocked, a gush of obscuring white snow would bleed out from the clone’s body and swallow everything within a 36 meter radius around it in a thick snowstorm. At that moment, visibility would be dropped to near zero. The whistling melodies also seemed to change at that moment. Rather than the multiple melodies originating all around the clone, they now seemed to originate from multiple different locations within a 30 meter radius. It was as if the clone had split itself into fifteen different locations.

Dust Storm
Rank: "C"

Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: Range of this technique is 7 meters + 6 meters per Class Level. Area of effect is a 6 meter radius spread. Duration of this technique is 5 minutes per Class Level. This technique requires a small source of large nearby. A swirling mass of thick dust spreads out from the point the user designates. This dust severely limits visibility, creates a constant droning noise, and blocks scent, granting concealment against all senses (including special senses such as tremorsense) for anything entirely within its area (but not to Large or bigger creatures and objects only partially within the Jutsu's area). Creatures with concealment gain a 20% miss chance against successful attacks and can make Stealth checks, as outlined in the normal rules for concealment.

User may choose to double the Jutsu's radius when performed, at the cost of reducing its duration to 2 rounds per Class Level.
Limit: Must know Earth Release.

Kimi knew that he needed to do something as he was not unable to even find the clone. But he had a way to equal that for the clone as well. It was called Dust Storm and would block all senses while inside if it. This should stop the clone from finding him and take away his hearing too. Though this would limit his senses to but he could wait the clone out. His patients was more than most people he had every know.

But kimi wouldn’t just use dust storm by itself, no that wouldn’t be enough. Again he hid his hands as he made the handseals for Meimei Hei Kimi would place them around his Ice Mirrors. He would fill all the spaces between his Ice Mirrors with the walls so that no one could escape from inside his mirrors. When thoughts where in place he drew on his earth chairs and pull up the dust and dirt around them.

When he had that floating he would take cues from storms and his bloodline to create a storm. Pieces of gravel shattered and grated against one and another creating a droning buzzing sound. That along with the high winds would create a screen inside the mirrors that would blind and deafen the clone. Kimi wouldn’t be able to attack right away but he would wait for the right time. When that time would come and then he would strike, as was right for a hunter of his leave.

“Shit.”

The clone grimaced as it found all its senses, including its hyper-sensitive hearing drowned out by brown specs of dust mixing with the ongoing snowstorm. No – not dust. The constant droning sound grated on the clone’s sanity and reminded it more of an onslaught of winged insects. This was beginning to get dangerous. Claustrophobia-inducing even. Fuelled by the heroic energy coursing throughout its veins, the clone pressed onward and attempted to fly through one of the openings towards its left. It wouldn’t be difficult slipping past the mirrors while Kimi was blinded and left unable to notice the attempted escape – or so it thought.

Palm stretched outwards; the clone hit something solid – likely the surface of a mirror. A few more steps towards the left and it should have found an opening. However, the clone did not. “A wall… The clever bastard created a wall. Did he freeze all the openings up?” Grimacing, the clone flew upwards with its hands raised to protect its head from hitting the mirrors highest in the air. Once contact was made, the clone reached out for an opening, but once again, found nothing. Courage wavering, it noted that Kimi hadn’t just created walls. The boy had also sealed the upper mirrors together to form a roof, or rather, an entire dome-like structure.

“Bad… This is real bad.” The clone began panicking in a confusing mix of emotions. The soul energy pumping throughout the Kedoin’s body didn’t dampen the nausea and claustrophobia it was feeling. Instead, it felt both contrasting emotions at once. Fear and courage. Strength and weakness. Nausea and peace. A torrent of emotions combined with the storm of earth and ice left the clone crippled. If that wasn’t bad enough, Kimi’s flurry of attacks would only continue as something akin to a bolt of lightning struck, robbing the clone of its sight and hearing even further as the thunderous clamour of the strike hit like Thor’s hammer.

Kimi had almost won the spar at that moment. Almost. “Still not going in for the kill, are you? When will you learn.” Luckily for the clone, a Kedoin didn’t need nostrils to breathe. Taking in a deep breath through its skin, which would automatically filter out the chilling snow and specs of irritating dust, the clone allowed its lungs to fill to the brim with precious oxygen before it opened its mouth and screeched harshly. If Kimi’s attack was to be considered loud, then this was positively deafening. Sound waves given life by Chakra, the clone’s monstrous screaming sent blades of focused sound waves spiralling out from its body and into all directions in a almighty roar that would rip apart the ground below, dissipate the two storms and annihilate all of Kimi’s mirrors in a single move. Shredding everything within a 35 meter radius of the clone, including the ground itself, the symphony of screaming would leave behind a large crater underneath the clone’s body and leave Kimi forced to take the brunt of the attack should the mirror he was hiding in shatter and forcibly eject him into the blender of sound waves.

Tree Bark Armour
Rank: "A"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: User creates armour of wood. This armour can heal itself for the duration of this Jutsu.
Special: Handseals
Drawback: ---
Description: Range of this technique is touch. Target of this technique is creature touched. Duration of this technique is 50 minutes per Class Level. User creates a tree to grow against the user's back. Sizeable expansive bark peels off and wraps around the user armouring them. The Target gains +8 Hardness, and 12 Armour Points per Class Level. While wearing the armour, the armour can heal itself by healing 3 + 1 Armour Points of damage per Class Level. If the target has wood release, they could use it for wooden Jutsus. If the target's temporary Armour Points total is dropped to 0 or less, the Jutsu ends.
Limit: Must know Wood Release.

Kimi knew he had to act fast, so he moved to the top of the dome. That gave him six meters from the clone, but he had a feeling that it wouldn’t be enough. This clearly had the strength of an S-Rank Jutsu, dangerous by itself but range would be there in spades. So he quickly used up his third and fourth blink to get up to 26 meters above the clone. Though even this didn’t feel safe enough so he using his wings to rush up and went faster using all three of his Shunshin no Jutsu – Oshi to get up about fifty one meters in the air.

But he wasn’t sure if he was safe but he remembered a armor jutsu from the wood path. It would create a source of wood that would heal itself and protect him with equal measure. So he focused on his wood chakra as he pushed it out like he did his Ironhide. He instead of forming a barrier within his skin that he would grow it there instead. Kimi started to sprout thin layers of bark from one of the lower layers of skin.

But that wasn’t correct either, he had created maple bark and that wasn’t strong enough. He had to really focus on what type of bark he wanted to create. It needed to be as strong as Iron but as flexible as clothe. Which was a hard thing to focus on as your flying through the air avoiding a deadly attack. But he was at least able to form the armor even if that wasn’t the correct type of bark.

2. The clone glanced around, forgetting that it had now effectively been rendered blind. Grimacing, it twitched its ears, only for nothing to register within the cavities. Deafened too. What a sorry state. What would the original think of this pitiful performance? Grimace shifting to scowl, the clone dropped its tower shield, the act of which causing the item to explode in a puff of smoke and return to the Item Summoning Seal that it had appeared from.

A sense of stress ate away at the clone’s confidence. How long before Kimi’s next attack? The clone was surprised that it even had time to register these thoughts. If the situation were reversed, it would have gone for the decapitation already. Hoping that Kimi was planning something grand, the clone utilised these thoughts to bolster its courage as it lowered itself to sit on the frost-covered floor with legs crossed. At the very least, the cold sensation biting into its rear suggested that it hadn’t lost its sense of touch.

“…” The clone attempted to speak to Kimi but was unsure if any words or even sounds left its mouth. Destruction Symphony was a powerful attack that sacrificed one’s vocal cords in exchange for great destructive power. Had Kimi been hit by the attack? Either way, courage and a sense of heroism had guided the clone thus far. It could only take it even further if it believed in the strange soul energy coursing throughout its body. “I suppose I’ll just wait and watch.”

Kimi had made it but realized that Dust Storm was up, that made it so that the clone couldn’t see anything or hear anything. That gave kimi an idea and he folded his wings behind himself and dropped straight toward the center of the storm. Allowing his speed to increase to drastic proportions and fell into the storm. As he dropped he started two separate Jutsu that he would time to activate at the instant he made it to the original center if the storm. As he made it to the center he would drop the dust storm and activate his two justsu.

As the storm dropped there would be a massive wind around Kimi that was sharp and cold, inside that wind was forty leaf sickness spinning in place. He would allow them to orbit around himself with the help of the wind as he attack the area around himself. Since he didn’t know where the clone was other than in the sphere he would attack it all. This would be a killing level jutsu for normal people but kimi knew the Yis was a clone and that this wouldn’t be able to kill Yis. So he didn’t have to hold back at all and he had chosen not to.

Kimi had reworked his bark armor from maple to poplar. But that wasn’t correct at all that was even worse to use as it was thin as paper. He reconfigured the genetic structure trying to create and even strong wood to use as the base. Kimi was no where close enough to even be satisfied with his results. So as he attacked he would rework his bark as many times as needed to have it correct.

“Still nothing…” The clone mused to itself as it continued to regenerate the damage that had been done to its body. That settled it. Rolling up its left sleeve, a single seal along the clone’s forearm flash red hot with intent just as it snapped its finger to conjure another explosion of white smoke amidst the storm. Seconds later, Kimi descended and nosed dived onto the clone while unleashing a flurry of slashing attacks comparable in might to the Destruction Symphony. Two sounds made themselves apparently to Kimi at that moment. The sound of the frost along the ground shattering, and the harsh clamour of his attacks striking repeatedly against solid metal.

“What did you just do…” The clone wondered blindly as it felt multiple vibrations echoing throughout the puppet Yurei’s body. Standing 22ft tall, the Adamantium puppet easily held the clone inside its chest cavity as it sprung to life with a twitch of the clone’s finger. Tugging upon certain Chakra strings, the clone forced Yurei to perform a series of running jumps until it had exited the confines of the obscuring snowstorm. The direction of course, not mattering. As long as the puppet moved in a straight line, the sensation of snow pelting against the puppet would eventually cease.

Lifeless but stiff, the puppet then remained frozen in time as it awaited commands from its master. Whether it had managed to escape or not, it didn’t matter. If the prior attack had been Kimi’s finishing move, then the vibrations from the numerous impacts signalled to the clone that there hadn’t been much weight behind the opponent’s strikes. Thick material such as Adamantium couldn’t be bypassed with multiple weak strikes. It required a single, yet highly potent ability to break through such dense armour.

Kimi didn’t know what to do against this mass of metal at all. He didn’t think that He had the power to take it down but he had to try. Both his wind and Leaf weapons were still active so he had that to use for damage. But then he noticed the two dragons flying around and he knew he had more to work with then he thought. He focused his Chakra out and ordered the two dragons to attack from the left and right. They would both fly in an attempt to bite the arms of the puppet and then if they did pull them taut.

Kimi flew straight towards the creature and knew he had to rack up a lot of damage as he could. He used his left hand controlling the Leaf Weapons to focus in front of him. He would left the wind around himself guide the weapons so he didn’t need to control them. He made sure that the Dragons wouldn’t be affected by his two Jutsu at all. He knew he needed to up his defense along with this attack or he wouldn’t be able to finish this spar.

Kimi would push a pulse of Wood Chakra through his armor attempting to change its make up again. His last two times had not been the best types of trees for defense. So he focused on making the densest yet lightest armor he could. He knew that would a bit ironic as those things normally don’t work together that way. But he was hoping that since it was a chakra fueled bark and armor that it would be different. It was at this time that he made it to the creature and used the Wind around himself to spread out the weapons and attack at the same time. Kimi would focus the current into a point so that it would funnel all the weapons toward the creature in an attempt to rack up damage on it.

Due to their average flying speed, the puppet had managed to clear the boundary of the snowstorm before coming to its intended and abrupt stop. Unmoving and limbs growing limp, it wouldn’t take much effort for the twin dragons to close the distance and latch onto each arm. Silence then fell upon the area as the dragon spirits pulled with all their might, leaving the puppet seemingly trapped as its horizontally stretched arms creaked with the sound of metal rubbing forcibly against metal.

Kimi then wasted no time in approachinh, ready to divebomb the puppet with an array of whirling Jutsu following his body. The boy had certainly learned how to capitalise on oppertunity. Kimi likely had no reason to think there was any danger. What could a ‘blind’ puppeteer do after all? “I see you.” The clone thought to itself as Kimi whizzed forwards, leaving behind only a 4-meter gap between himself and the puppet target. Momentum carrying him forwards, he’d be unable to abruptly change directions at such short notice to dodge what was to come even if he did somehow see it coming. Such was the clone's thoughts as it secretly observed Kimi from the hull of the puppet.

Grinning, the clone twitched its finger to tug on a Chakra string. At that moment, a black object blasted upwards from the puppet’s back before curving back down and towards Kimi’s location. The movement would be slow at first, but the moment the tail pointed at Kimi, a piston would suddenly trigger, blasting the bladed tail towards Kimi’s chest like a spear that had just been fired from a cannon. Despite not wishing to mortally injure the boy, the clone knew not to aim for Kimi’s limbs. The opponent was fast and had sharp reflexes. It would be better to aim for his core and vitals so that if he dodged, the blade would at least slash or nick the boy’s limbs during the attempted dodge instead of just outright missing.

With Kimi’s vision he was just able to see something launch up and into the air. Since he didn’t to see to attack, he flipped over to look up. It seemed to be a mechanical blade, once that could probably do a lot of damage to Kimi if it hit. So he used his left hand not controlling the leaf weapons to form the handseals necessary for the Shield of The Wind Count. It would protect him from the attack and redirect it toward the enemy, he shouldn’t lose sight like would normally happen due to his eyes being active.

He let the weapon get within his area of effect and then he used the Wind Count to redirect the weapon at the chest of the creature. With that taken care of he would flip back around and face the creature so he could direct his attacks better. He kept the wind current flowing ahead of himself so that he could funnel the weapon into a point and back around again. Seeing as the dragons didn’t seem to be helping to much he ordered them to attack with everything they had. Both reared their heads back and attempted to bit and claw into the creature. Though what the clone may not have sensed is that the Wood dragon was draining chakra every round it bit or held onto the creature.

Kimi was happy that he was able to fight at this level and he knew that he couldn’t keep this up for two long. So he focused deeper into his defense trying to increase the potency of the armor. He was getting close to understanding this Jutsu but wasn’t there just yet. He needed something more that he was just not seeing as of yet. He slowly increase the thinkness of the armor while making the area around his joints flexible.

“Tch.” The clone hissed at the sight of the over-sized bladed tail being knocked away by a blurred force. The boy had more control over Wind Jutsu than first anticipated. Mercifully, as skilled as Kimi was with manipulating wind, the clone was just as skilled with its puppet. Twitching a series of Chakra strings, the clone forced the clone to pull its feet up from the ground to trigger its Ramjet Thruster Boots. All the meanwhile, the clone peered out from the puppet's visual systems with a third eye that had burst open from its forehead. It wouldn't be long now before the damage done to the original two eyes regenerated.

At that moment, two keys actions would occur. Firstly, the momentum gained from triggering the thrusters would launch the puppet backwards and away from Kimi, forcing the tail to break its trajectory and instead, simply drag lifelessly along the air as the puppet whizzed through the empty space at frightening speed. It would be difficult flying while dragging along a limp bladed tail, but the attempt did give the clone a precious few seconds of practice. Should the two dragons attempt to pull against the puppet and prevent it from taking off, the puppet’s Afterburner System would kick in, granting the puppet an even greater burst of speed that the twin dragons would be unable to overcome.

Secondly, the mere actions of triggering the Ramjet Thrusters would send a violent stream of fire towards Kimi. Normally, a weak technique that would only singe the boy even with a direct hit. However, Kimi had just surrounded himself with a twister of wind. Should the stream of liquid fire reach the boy’s wind shield, the flames would mix with the shield and set it ablaze, surrounding Kimi in a whirling mess of fire. Meanwhile, the skilled puppeteer carefully twitched its fingers to play around with the tail. Due to the hefty bladed mass on the end of the tail, the clone realised that every time the weapon veered to the left, it needed to force the tail to move towards the right to balance the puppet’s overall mass. It realised these same concepts were similar to Taijutsu. Should a oversized weapon move towards one side of a user’s body, the user needed to tilt his body in the opposite direction to prevent the weapon’s mass from toppling the user over.

Limit: Must know Wood Release.

Kimi seeing the fire coming, and knowing that his wind would just increase the damage of the fire, decided to drop his two attacking Jutsu and stop the winds on his defensive one. This would limit his damage taken by a lot, plus he had his cloak that would lessen it even more. So instead he would have to dragons keep up their attacks. The green draining chakra out every time and the black dealing damage as much as it could. Kimi knew he needed to deal with the creature that he was starting to realize must be a puppet, not many creature throw out jets of fire to hover and move.

With that in mind his had an idea with his Ice Chakra as the backbone. He quickly moved forward and flipped over so he was flying on his back looking up. He then started the Jutsu for his Fierce Ice Dagger, one in each hand. Once he was directly under the puppet he would fire both at its ports that allowed for the jumping to happen. As the Jutsu left his hand he would veer up and behind the puppet and Draw both sickles that he converted into bladed tonfas. Once behind it he would aim both Tonfas for the knee joints for puppet, one for each leg, he would punch them forward and quickly back to ready himself for a counterattack.

Having done that Kimi need to figure out this armor and quick. This spar was quickly ramping up to possibly deadly levels and he needed armor to compensate. So while he had been focusing on making dense and flexible armor, he decided he needed to work on the shape of it to. He knew that the shape of the armor could greatly reduce impacts and protect himself. As well if not better than just the make up of the armor.
