Beach Front Clash!

[/center]

A beautiful beach on the borders of Moon Country. Palm trees and pure white sand meet the waterfront perfectly. The sand is only about a 30 meter distance from the tree line of palm trees, where a dense growth of palm trees awaits as well as soil, and on the other side of the 30 meter expansion, awaits the crystal blue water of the ocean. There are random Coconuts laying about the beach that have fallen from some of the trees and made their way to the sand front. While the beach is very short width wise, it is very lengthy, going on for about 90 meters or at least. There is also a nice breeze coming off the water.

[Okami]

"This looks like a good place for a nap..."

Jin yawned, readjusted his liquid crystal glasses, and slumped down to the ground, resting his back against a tree. His shoulder length black hair was slightly disheveled, serving as a cushion for the back of his head. Twin shields on his back served the same purpose against the spiky palm. From neck to toe he was covered in half of the 8000 sheets of paper he and his partner wore, baggy clothes and a cloak that obscured his build. They also hid 3 Blood Clot Pills, 4 Soldier Pills, 2 World Maps, a Wireless Radio, a Gas Mask (2 E filters), 400 Fake Exploding Tags, 200 Exploding Tags, 200 Ice Tags, 100 Lightning tags, 100 Mine Tags, 10 Smoke Pouches, 10 Light Pouches, 8 Decks of Cards, 400 Ribbons, and 4 paper cubes, while the Tessaiga hung from his hip.

He pulled his crossbow out in front of him and rested it on his lap, idly stringing it and loading a bolt. Of course, he also caried repeater clips filled with flash bang, goo, flare, extinguiser, balanced shaft, razor blade fletched, splitting shaft, greater fire, greater smoke, greater water, greater ice, and greater concussion bolts.

"Or an ambush."

Okami huffed in agreement, not bothering to look up from his methodical smashing and tasting of various coconuts. The monkey was dressed in attire similar to his master, though he remained hooded and masked. His face was smooth, white, and featureless, covering liquid crystal enhanced goggles beneath. The creature had to lift his mask every time he took a sip or nibble of the hairy fruit, but at times his master seemed adamant about disguising the monkey's features, and it was usually best to follow Jin's instructions.

Shock enhanced piston gauntlets and greaves covered Okami's limbs, and a tower shield hung from his back. He carried a Wireless Radio, 10 smoke pouches, 10 light pouches, 10 Goo pouches, 10 Ice Grenades, 10 Lightning grenades, 3 Greater Water Bolt Heads, 20 Percussion grenades, 50 Exploding Tags, 50 Mine Tags, and 50 Ice tags.

A ninja was supposed to be coming this way. Jin didn't know the reason, nor did he care. He made no effort to hide himself, simply gazing at the orange sunrise slowly climbing over the lake. He waited.

Soon.

[Koori.]

A slightly frail hand bent down and grasped a large coconut from within the sand. I lifted the coconut towards me as I stood straight up, continuing to walk forward, to the north along the waters edge. I dusted the coconut off and pulled a Golden silken scalpel from my weapons pouch made by Trace, a student of mine. I used it to pierce the dense hull of the coconut within my hands, as coconut juice splashed a bit from the shell as I pierced it. I wore black rubber soled ninja sandals, and slightly baggy black samurai pants above them, while what appears to be a white in color rope holding the pants up as though a belt. I wore a plain white tee shirt on my upper body as well, with my lower four arms crossed across my chest. Over that, a long red cloak with long sleeves and a black spider on its back, as well as black button on it, as it was indeed buttoned up down the middle. Fingerless gloves covered all six of my hands, black in color. A pale face with lengthy white hair and red eyes peered forth into the distance of white sand and beach front.

I brought the coconut to my mouth and sipped coconut juice from the shell. My eyes caught a figure leaning against a tree off into the distance. There was also another figure in which seem to be masked and hooded sampling coconuts, someone who seemed to share the same love of coconuts as myself. I wondered what would bring a crossbow wielding man to such a nice beach as this? Standing about thirty meters away from the man sipping the coconut gently, I would offer an introduction. Yeah, that seemed like the right thing to do.

"Greetings. Beautiful day, isn't it?"

[Okami]

And there he was, sipping a coconut. Not a care in the world. That is a ninja, isn't it? Jin wondered. If his information was wrong there'd be hell to pay. Jin rose to meet him.

"Greetings. Beautiful day, isn't it?"

And he seemed like a nice guy, too! Jin was out here heavily armed and probably dangerous looking, and the guy offers such a friendly hello. But no, that could only last until his village told him who the enemy was, then he'd turn into a cold blooded killing machine. The thing standing before Jin right now wasn't a man, but a tool.

"Well, yes. It is."

Jin replied absently, not really thinking about what he was saying. This would be the first time he killed such an amiable guy. Might have even been a friend under different circumstances. If he had his way, he'd start off with a different ninja. Alas, the opportunity was too good to pass up.

"But we can't really chat. I'm ambushing you, you see."

Chakra pulsed through his head and his eyes resonated, veins bulging and throbbing in time. He saw a well developed chakra system within the ninja's thin frame, circulating through six arms. Kumomusha.

Four of Jin's own arms moved simultaneously. A lower set, hidden against his belly, worked through a few seals, modifying his Byakugan to see chakra nature. His revealed upper arms raised the massive crossbow and fired once, instantly reloading. The bolt was aimed to skim the side of the ninja's pants, slicing through his belt and dropping his pants around his ankles.

Get it now?

[/blockquote]

[Koori.]

"Ambushing.......me?"

I said highly confused. Why would anyone want to ambush me? Who the fuck was I? I was so used to everyone trying to hunt down Elgar, the Otokage. This was certainly a changing of the guard so to speak. Perhaps this hit-man was sent after me on purpose! Maybe he wanted to dispose of Elgar's body guard to make killing him easier?

More questions then answers arose, but answers could be found in time. chakra flowed throughout my eyes, and the crimson Tasukeru began to make my eyes glow as though tiny flashlights of red light. He also, had six arms, a clan mate like myself and Trace. Hands formed into handseals as the bottom set of hands clasped together to do so. The crossbow was pulled up, would I get the Jutsu off in time?!?

No.

[/b]

I was incredibly embarrassed. See, I liked going commando. My genitals were highly exposed before crystalline armor over took my entire body. I simply flicked my pants off, since the belt was broken by the crossbow bolt of my new opposition. I sighed briefly after kicking my pants to the side, leaving my junk hanging out and about.

Hey, he did this to himself.

Peering forth at the blood of the pure white eyed man before me, I realized that I did not know of his kekkei genkei, but he surely possessed one. I took one final sip of my coconut which I still held in my top right hand, before tossing it aside without thought of it. What I was thinking of though, was how god damned fast that crossbow bolt had just moved, and how scary that was becoming. Also, how much would the hooded figure play in this battle? Only time would tell.

Hands danced one final time fairly quickly as I gazed heavily upon the opponent, watching his every move now that the Tasukeru allowed me sight of everything I deemed necessary. Everyone within fifty meters would have all light and sight fade away from them, as they would only see darkness from now on, or so I had hoped.

"Yeah, I Get it."

[Logi Shimizu]

[enter]

Logi was enjoying his time at the beach. The nudist beach. The sun was out, and he was ready to tan. It felt a little weird to let his junk hang out in a public place, but a nudist beach was a nudist beach. He laid down in the sand, careful not to get sand in any places sand's not supposed to be in. That's when shit started going down. Two guys started fighting! Seeing as it was a nudist beach, one guy decided to drop his pants.... what a weird way to fight. However, Logi was freaking the fuck out. He jumped to his feet and started running. He was screaming as loud as he could, HIS JUNK WAS IN DANGER! If the two men were watching, they could see the screaming luniac as he ran off into the distance, his girly scream fading as he went.

[exit]

[Okami]

The ninjas eyes glowed, and his hands flickered. Amiable yes, but quick to lurch into full battle mode. Jin didn't hesitate. His compunctions were gone, bow already aimed...

His gaze flickered down to where the previous bolt had struck. He caught a glimpse of flesh he didn't want to see. It glistened. Actually, the ninja's whole body glowed with an odd form of chakra. Surprised, the Hyuuga missed half a beat, but he did manage to take aim and loose another pair of bolts at the ninja's nipples. If they struck, they'd merely bounce off the armor. Darkness Jin recognized as genjutsu would overtake the area as he confirmed a new plan. Only one slight modification was necessary.

"Let's go"

He ordered quietly as he loaded a bolt, fired, and loaded again in the same fluid movement. The bolt was aimed at the tip of ninja's toe, so it would explode in a ferocious display of blinding light and deafening sound regardless of whether or not it was dodged. Breaking that armor might require some effort, so he planned to secure a circumstantial advantage before charging in.

The arrow's effects would only last five seconds, so Jin needed to move quickly. He body flickered along side his blind companion three times. The beast was slightly faster, but Jin used that to his advantage, watching to see which side Okami took and taking care of the coordinated positioning. The creature did indeed have superhuman hearing and smell with which to track prey, but he'd be considerable less accurate. Thus, the support.

Running on instinct, Okami appeared directly behind the ninja, and immediately unleashed a furious barrage of punches spaced evenly around the ninja's back. He wasn't using any specialized techniques, but each fist was fast, heavy, and dispersed a moderate electric jolt about the armor. No armor would last long.

Meanwhile, Jin appeared at the ninja's left. Five feet away, he remained out of range of his pet's blind assault, but close enough to aid in the effort. His bare middle set of arms darted out of slits in his shirt's armpits, the left grabbing a shield while his right drew the Tessaiga. The blade morphed as it slipped out of its rusty sheath. In place of the battered old katana that should have been, Jin swung a monstrously large scimitar. He'd rake it up and down the ninja's three left arms, utilizing its vast momentum to knock the arms about, chipping armor and preventing seals.

The screaming naked man was ignored.

[OOC: Any problems with this post feel free to PM me, I did a terrible job at explaining the effects of the blindness. If anything needs elaborating or explaining just say so]

The seals finished, and the Genjutsu was in affect, but the warrior before me seen un-fooled. Two more arrows darted towards me and with two dink noises, bounced harmlessly off the crystalline armor. However, two arrow sized hole now were present in my tee shirt which resided under the red cloak. Not that it mattered, I was still naked after all. After the bolts were fired, he seemingly vanish a few times, appearing off in the distance briefly with his monkey. Either his memory was insane, as well as his blind combat skills, or those white pupils and veins on his forehead, as well as the earlier mentioned unique blood flow was providing him so much needed assistance. However it should be noted, my assumptions to this point in time were still vastly inaccurate, and I still had no true knowledge of the eyes parameters or what they could accomplish or see or not see for that matter, but I was fairly sure he could use it to break illusions. No matter, I made it a point to test just how great his eyes were. He shot another arrow at my toe, as it would also dink off, but this arrow was different. A small explosion was made and my frontal vision was blinded, and I was slightly deaf.

The minor power of prediction allowed me to notice his flickering location ever so slightly before had, although that wasn't saying much at all. I could only barely make out the adjustments to the light to my right, outside of the line of the blindness, my eyes allowing 360 degree vision. He aligned himself briefly with the other hooded and masked figure, who now that I noticed, was incredibly small, perhaps midget like? No, it was a monkey. He would now to be joining the fray, it appeared. Hands moved as quickly as possible into seals, the bottom set of hands, as my right hand began to faintly glow with chakra. He aided the midget it would seem, as the midget appeared behind me, and with a flicker, it seemed he would appear to my left. Luckily, my technique was held within my right hand. He grasped for a Katana, his monkey came in with blows towards my back, I stepped to my left, towards the assassin. Right hand slightly hidden behind me as I stepped into the shinobi, I was also slightly avoiding the blind monkey as well. His fists punched my ass a time or two before the step was made, as my physical abilities were were far inferior to his. Lightning collided with the armor and weakened it, as well as providing minor shocks to me. I would keep my focus, no, I had to keep my focus on the assassin. As the seals finished as I stepped, the top right hand came forward. He sliced, as the once katana grew into something much fiercer. It appeared as though a large great sword, but how the hell did it fit into that tiny sheath? More questions then answers, as per usual. I could end it all here though, and it wouldn't matter. It was going to however come at a price.

The sword raked up my left side as I pressed in, blindly, extending the right hand as I did so, pushing it forth, towards the center of the mans force as he was swinging. The sword cut deep into the crystalline armor, and cracked it along the arms section viciously. I pressed him more, tapping him with the glowing right hand as he swung, taking the hit of the sword. A few small droplets of blood fell through the cracks, that sword was vicious, but I fought through the pain. I hit him in the chest with my extended fingers, allowing the furthest possible reach to hit the target. Crystals would immediately begin to spread out from his chest and crystallize his entire body in a few seconds. This would allow him some time to a few finals attempts, but the prison formation was inevitable.

Once the touch occurred and the Jutsu began to take affect, I would immediately flicker away myself, leaving an afterimage behind me as I did so, pushing myself 10 meters behind my target, as my feet collided with the water front. There was always the possibility I would miss, and I would need to be prepared for this as well. In a row to my left and right, and a small equally sized row of eight behind me, demonic illusions would form. These illusions were slightly different then your normal bushins, and possessed chakra systems and all the senses (except touch) to fool the enemies senses to boot. My frontal vision was finally coming back to me ever so slowly, I would take note of his availability or such an arrow for further down the line. My ass would beginning to hurt as well, as that section of armor was indeed also cracked. No handseals were needed for the demonic illusions, or the next thing I would do, which was focus chakra all around and begin to repair the cracked armor, reforming the crystals. It was my best chance at beating this guy with a frail Onigami body, I had to keep it in tip top shape.

Shôton: Suishô Rô no Jutsu (Crystal Release: Crystal Prison) (50)
Rank: "B"
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: This technique is one where the user completely encases an opponent in crystal. If the crystal is shattered, the victim disintegrates along with the crystal particles. This is a minor version of the Crystal Release: Crystal Pentagonal Prison.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: If an opponent is able to surround their body with chakra, or cover themselves completely with another technique *such as a chakra based elemental armor* they will be able to avoid being shattered if the prison breaks. Only characters that have mastery in medical ninjutsu can cover themselves in a strong enough coating of chakra without a technique. Even if you have this chakra coating, or buffer of elemental armor, you are still capable of being trapped within the prison and having to find a way to break free.
Description: Picture Forming the handseals, the user is able to produce a rather faint glow to one of their chosen hands. While this glow is active the user is unable to perform any other handseals. To activate the actual crystallization the user must touch the designated target. After doing so, one must allow for the crystallization to take effect. How many movements it takes to encase your victim, as well as the prisons durability is determined by your Shôton: Crystallization technique. Once encased if shattered, the person within the prison will essentially be destroyed as well, almost as if they were made of the crystal. As always, the user may designate to effectively disintegrate their crystal construct effectively acting like the structure was destroyed should they so choose.
Limit: Must know the Crystal Release, Shôton: Crystallization

Shunshin no Jutsu - Zanzō (Body Flicker Technique - Remaining Image) (10)
Rank: "C"
Skill: NinJutsu/TaiJutsu
Effect: Affects the enemy's mind and will power by making after images.
Special: ---
Drawback: Takes away the number of usages Shunshin no Jutsu - Oshi (Body Flicker Technique - Push). Same distance applications apply. Same drawbacks apply when over using.
Description: A Jutsu to move so swiftly that an image of the technique's user is left behind while moving within 10 meters. Most often it is used to dodge an incoming attack and get behind the opponent to perform a counter-attack. When first learned user is able to perform 1 after image within 10 meters. Each time learned user is able to create an extra after image within 10 meters. May learn to perform up to 5 after images within a single Jutsu. Supplement of Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique - Push) while using same schematics. May be used with other Shunshin no Jutsu - Oshi (Body Flicker Technique).
Limit: Universal NinJutsu or Universal TaiJutsu, Must know Shunshin no Jutsu - Oshi, Ken'in, Ko, and Kaunta

Yasha Gensou (Demonic Illusions) (10) (60)
Rank: "C", "B", "A"
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the Onigami to fool other Doujutsu or any other chakra detection methods that read life or chakra and create ‘fake people’ for them to attack.
Special: C ranked training allows between 1 and 5 creations. B ranked allows up to 15, and the A ranked creation allows up to 30.
Description: One of the unique powers of the Onigami is to allow them to trick any chakra or life detection methods in believing someone is there, usually by creation real chakra systems stationary in certain places. For those peering through their doujutsu, the appearance of someone’s chakra systems or their chakra flow will be seen, and it’s impossible for them to discern real from fake. Once they strike them, the systems disappear. This jutsu is most effective under a visually altering jutsu, ie, the Hidden Mist skill, because the victim’s will not be able to tell as well what’s real and what isn’t.
Limit: Must be part of the Onigami BL.

Shôton: Crystal Resurrection (10) (50) -
Rank: "C", "B", "A", "S"
Skill: Passive Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows you to reform destroyed crystalline structures after they are damaged.
Special: No handseals, but still requires a certain amount of chakra based on which level you use
Drawback: The structure must immediately be fixed or else you will be unable to reestablish the bond it had with the rest of the structure.
Description: Using ones skill with the crystal release the user is able to reform an area of crystal that been destroyed. As soon as it is damaged the user may elect to activate this reforming the section damaged. At C rank the user is able to reform a 5x5 meter for ever movement they use the required chakra, and the trend continues in the same fashion of Shôton: Crystallization. After using it you can choose which rank of effort to use when fixing a structure.
Limit: Must know Shôton: Crystallization to an equal rank.

[Okami]

[If I understand you correctly, Koori can make out dark shapes to the sides (where human vision would end) and has better vision behind. If so, then as soon as he turns to attack Jin he'll lose track of him again. I think that's what you meant by "The sword raked up my left side as I pressed in, blindly," but I'm just making sure up here in OOC.]

Okami was no expert at blind-fighting, but he threw so many punches so quickly that he didn't need to see. His left struck something solid multiple times before the target escaped, and that was enough for him. He backed off several meters to the right, away from the ninja, and began to concentrate on his remaining senses. If he was needed again he'd have to know the ninja's general position.

Jin on the other hand was not blind, nor deaf as his target was. Though he considered it odd that the ninja knew where to attack, he had no reason to fear such an awkward charge. Not only could his eyes predict the physical maneuver, it was a simple matter of range: the ninja needed to pivot and step in before he had a chance at touching Jin, while the Hyuuga could strike freely with his massive sword. He stepped back as his sword struck home, years training as an outside boxer showing their effects in his precise footwork. He was still about four feet away from the ninja, and out of arm's reach.

Right about the time the ninja would be realizing that nobody had stood around to be hit, his upper set of arms still holding the crossbow fired from point blank range. The bolt would finally shatter through the crystal armor, sending shards into the ninja's chest.
