| Zaku had been so bored. He and Hiro had gotten back from their Bounty and turned it in, their master being content with how quickly they had dispatched their enemies. Not happy or proud, simply content. Zaku couldn't help but think the other was probably implying that they could've done better, but he paid him no mind. They had done pretty fucking good. But, things had slowed down and no bounties came for them. So, he had just been walking around when he heard some excited whispers from a group of Knights. He checked their insignia and saw they were from Hiro's order, so they were frontliners like himself. He listened in from afar and heard them talking about some secret place within Minrai Castle, and how to get there. The group moved away soon, agreeing to meet at the place in a few days. Zaku had picked up on two very interesting words as they spoke: killing and money. He made his way to the castle and followed their instructions to the place. It was a room filled with dusty books, much to Zaku's displeasure. He looked around for a bit before deciding to leave and kill those fuckers for wasting his time, however as he turned he felt a pulling sensation at the back of his navel before everything went black. He felt like he was being pushed through a tight metal tube for a long moment before the sensation fell away and he could see again. He was on his knees, so he stood and looked at the receptionist's desk before him, a red headed woman smiling down at him from her high seat "Bonjour!" Her voice was high and cheery and Zaku couldn't help but notice how pretty her face was. He idly wondered how it would look in the throes of pleasure "Welcome to ze Pits of Tartaros. You may choose to partake in ze fights we sponsor 'ere. You are able to pick your weight class for ze fight. For weightclasses, we 'ave Feather, Light, Welter, 'eavy, Super 'eavy, Rift, Legendary and Void. However, you must pass all of ze weights before the 'igher ones in order to participate in zem. Each weight class is separated into three different sets of seven bouts with breaks in between. You must win each fight by either incapacitating or killing your enemy. You wouldn't want zem waking up and trying to kill you, now would you? Now zat you have all of this information, you may select your difficulty. We have a selection of Easy, Standard and 'ard. I should remind you zat ze Xel rewards increase with the difficulty of each bout and you get a bonus for participating in multiple weightclasses." She her smile kept up throughout the whole spiel, and now she was waiting patiently for Zaku to reply. He smiled wickedly back. He got to kill as much as he wanted and then he got paid for it afterwards. What more could he ask for? "I'll start at Featherweight on the Hardest difficulty, then. By the way, the name is Zaku H. Isley, sweetness." He gave her a wink and she blushed fractionally "Very well." She wrote something down and motioned to a door that had opened in the wall behind her, prompting Zaku to walk in. He did so with a swagger, ready to shed some blood. - Fight Specifics:
Featherweight - Hard 1st Set: 7 D-Rank Enemies 2nd Set: 7 C-Rank [Low] Enemies 3rd Set: 7 C-Rank [High] Enemies

| Faceless And so the first set began when Zaku walked in through those doors. The young competitor had a certain swagger about him, as if he knew that everything would turn out in his favor. He walked on through with an arrogance that could rub anyone the wrong way. After all the pits is no light matter, some of the best come in and don't come out. Yet this red headed prances around like this is some sort of play ground. Maybe his first contestant will beat the right attitude into him. Because right across from him stood a figure of a young man. This figure was strange because his appearance was blurry, his face could not be seen clearly, and if zaku didn't have his wits about him; he might actually think something was wrong with his eyes. The figure simply stood there staring at Zaku and would sway from side to side until it was time to fight. It could be a bit difficult to determine wither the figure was swaying or if Zaku's vision was being messed with, but it would be very clear that once the trumpet sound, that the figure would stop abruptly and begin to speak. If nothing was hindering Zaku's hearing the voice of the figure would sound like its coming from all around him, as if the figure was covering all sides at close range. " If i told you that love is a sin, would you believe me? We're covered in lies, covered in lives, kukwhahahaa" the figure chuckles as it begins to cry and slowly cut itself with a kunai drawing forth more blood. As the figure cuts itself, man different voices begin to manifest as the figures mouth begins to move a bit. Although his mouth was moving no sound came from it, yet the voices sounded soo close and around Zaku. "Ugly, fuckin ugly, demonic piece of shit, i love your pain, maybe your insane, come to me, dont you run, you slimy turd, faceless, mother fucker, i love your sin." Appearance to others: When mirage tech is active - Spoiler:
How he sees himself when : Echoing Voices is activated: - Spoiler:
Tech Used: - Spoiler:
Name: Mirage Classification: Kinjutsu Rank: B (C-Rank Chakra and Blood Price) Class: Offensive/ Supplementary Range: Self
Description: This technique was created by a kid named Rodshi Levinsky and is the first tech used in his story teller fighting style. Mirage causes the users appearance to be completely blurred, impairing the vision of others as well as inflicting B- rank pain if they keep looking at him. Rodshi was always known as a troubled kid, with a strange knack for experimentation and story telling which would lead to giving himself away. Offering a C-rank of fire based chakra and blood all those who look in his direction see blurriness and swaying. Their perception becomes way off, creating 5ft difference between where they see the figure and where Rodshi actually is. If the opponent has increased eye sight the effects worsen, causing the distance to be 10ft difference and pain to be doubled. A draw back to this technique is that if the target has hearing capabilities they can hear the target.
Name: Echoing Voices Classification: Kinjutsu Rank: C (3D Chakra and Blood Price) Class: Offensive Range: 40ft
Description: This technique is the second stage of Rodshi's story telling fighting style. This technique uses ambient chakra projectiles that are invisible to those without chakra or spiritual sensory techniques. These projectiles vary in number and come from different directions based on the user's rank, each one echoing the user's voice so that it seems as if it is coming for all multiple directions, with each projectile confusing the target more. This makes it more difficult to determine the user's positioning via sound-based sensory, confusing said techniques up to a certain rank, which is determined by the number of projectiles. The projectiles are still meant to be an attack, on top of a way to confuse sensory. As such, each projectile does a C-Rank of Spiritual Damage. Rank - # of Projectiles - Directions - Sound Sensory Confused D - 1 - Front - C C - 2 - Front, Back - B B - 3 - Front, Back, Left - A A - 4 - Front, Back, Left, Right - S S - 5 - Front, Back, Left, Right, Above - SS
Name: Understanding Classification: Genjutsu Rank: D Class: Supplementary Range: Hearing
Description: Rodshi expends his chakra to an apply an illusion to his target when they hear his voice. His voice becomes cryptic and enchanting, causing the victim to become enraptured by his story telling prowess. They are drawn to his words and are left open for a single attack, dropping their guard until they take damage from any source or until the turn ends. While effective should it work, this illusion is also very weak, as a simple C-Rank Concentration technique or D-Rank Barrier tiers are able to negate it.
Reserves used: - Spoiler:
1C and 4Ds of Chakra 1C and 4Ds of Blood

| Rodshi's strategy was one that could fell a great number of opponents. Unfortunately, Zaku was a Knight of Pandora, and his power was, quite frankly, obscene. He was a Vampire. Not just a Vampire, but an Elder Dhamphir. As such, his Chakra Pathway System didn't hold chakra anymore, but Blood. That made the Genjutsu the other used against him completely ineffective. This enabled him to move forward at B-Rank+ Speeds uninhibited. He activated his Raidengan and advanced it to it's First Stage as soon as he realized his normal vision would be no good, using the electrolocation the eye gave him instead. The projectile hit him, due to coming from the front, but the damage didn't impede Zaku at all, healing completely as it was dealt. He moved towards his quarry quickly, a demonic aura taking shape around him. It took the form of a menacing creature with large, bat-like wings and blood red eyes, glaring and snarling at Rodshi. As he got close to the other male, Zaku stopped and turned, slamming his foot into the other's chin and sending him 5ft into the air unless he possessed D-Rank Strength to anchor himself. If he didn't or even if he did, Zaku would continue, diving into him and wrapping his arms around the other's waist before slamming him into the ground. Once he was on the ground, Zaku pinned the other and aimed 10 punches, five with each hand, at the other's head at the same speed he ran with in order to stun him. Once he was sure the other was stunned, he would turn the males head with a smirk. He lowered his face down to the other's neck before sinking his teeth into the flesh there. He gave a small moan as the precious vitae began to fill his mouth, the vampire drinking it down greedily. - Spoiler:
Zaku is an Elder Dhamphir and as such, his chakra pathway system is filled with blood. This renders normal Genjutsu ineffective against him. Zaku is capable of healing a C-Rank of Damage in a single post, healing the Spiritual damage done to him with ease. Raidengan activated at the First Stage, granting him C-Rank Reaction and Electrolocation, enabling him to tell Rodshi's true location through the Mirage.
Zaku's C-Rank+ Speed is boosted by 1-Rank to B-Rank+ due to the Vampire CM Kick Off = Rodshi knocked 5ft into the air (If he doesn't possess D-Rank Strength) Diving Tackle = Zaku slams Rodshi into the ground to stun him for 1 P.T. (2 due to being used after Kick Off) Mini Barrage = Rodshi Dizzied for 3 P.T. due to the punches to the head (4 P.T. due to being used after Diving Tackle)
Demonization Greater Demon = -2 from Intimidation Limit each Turn Kick Off = -1 from I.L. Diving Tackle = I.L. Depletions doubled while pinned Mini Barrage = Unable to move at Max Tier level without falling Since used after Diving Tackle: Unable to move above Standard Tier level without falling
Result of Combo If Rodshi does not possess D-Rank Strength to lock himself in place, then he is knocked into the air If he does not possess a D-Rank mid-air movement technique, then he will be caught up in the combo If he does not possess C-Rank Endurance tiers, then he will be stunned from the tackle If he does not possess C-Rank Reaction Tiers, he will be dizzied by the punches He requires D-Rank Strength in order to move at all if pinned under Zaku
Damage and Drain Damage: 11 D-Ranks and 1 C-Rank to Rodshi (2 C-Ranks and 5 D-Ranks) Zaku drains a B-Rank of Blood from Rodshi each P.T. (Rodshi will be drained dry in 4 Posts, 3 after this one, if he is 18+ or 2 posts, 1 after this one, if he is below 18) -6 from Rodshi's Intimidation Limit
Name: Cursed Seal of the Vampire Classification: Juinjutsu (Pandora Only) Rank: S-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Short/Self
Description: The user creates a seal the size of their outstretched palm, first making a six pointed star before writing six kanji in each opening, in the order starting clockwise from the top “Alter Appearance,” “Enhance Physical,” “Increase Chakra,” “Cease Aging,” “Accelerate Regeneration,” and “Sunlight Damage.” This cursed seal when applied will cause the host's eyes color to change red, and their canines to become like fangs. In addition their physical abilities, tiers, will be raised by 1-rank, and their chakra limit will be increased by 1-race. The host will further gain a form of semi-immortality where they do not age, while also gaining accelerated regeneration, allowing them to heal from damage 1-rank below their rank. With all its advantages, the flaw of this Cursed Seal, is that the host takes spiritual damage equal to their rank each post when under sunlight. Because of all the advantages, this is considered one of the more complex types of cursed seals.
Name: Vampiric Path – Elder Dhamphir Classification: Juinjutsu Rank: SS-rank (Daywalkers Only) Class: Supplementary Range: Short/Self
Description: The Elder Dhamphirs, a new species of daywalkers who thanks to embracing their ability to endure sunlight have granted them a connection to life allowing them to give birth to Dhamphir children. This specific Vampire Path, replaces the "Increase Chakra" Kanji with "System Convert" and then adds "Tainted Birth" resulting in the Dhamphir not only having their chakra system replaced with blood but likewise causing them to be able to replenish their now much larger blood reserves by draining the blood of others thus putting them in a True All Taijutsu state. Other than that they share all other things with the Vampire Curse Mark except that they have truly become a new sub-race due to their children being born as Dhamphirs in addition to the race of their fathers/mothers. If an Elder Dhamphir mates with a Vampire then they will give birth to a Vampire instead while if they mate with another Dhamphir or an Elder Dhamphir they will give birth to an Elder Dhamphir. In all cases unlike those who are sired into becoming a Vampire or any of it's advanced variant those borns as the sub-race are able to awaken into the Race Awakening of their Elder Dhamphir parent or the class awakening of their non vampire parent. When the transformation process is completed the new Vampire is given the new name, Elder Dhamphir, in which case when applying this seal to the CM of Vampire, the kanji for "Elder" will appear over the CM before it is placed on the host. Those who chose to take this vampiric route have a noble mission given to them by Pandora and as such are tasked to not only protect vampire covens but likewise breed to produce more naturally born vampires.
First Stage - In this stage the eyes gain two jagged patterns as more chakra courses into them further improving one's clarity of vision preventing motion blur from those moving at C-rank speed. The user's eyes are now capable of picking up electrical impulses as well as electrical fields produced through electrolocation allowing them to analyze and recreate D-rank Lightning Release techniques upon seeing them in battle after which the Denkou can train them after the topic. In order to activate the user must possess 5 D-ranks, 3 C-ranks & 1 B-rank Lightning Release technique.
Name: Murderous Arts Classification: Fighting Style Rank: D Class: Offensive/Supplementary Range: Self
Description: With this fighting style, the user tends to attack with quick strikes to different parts of the body. The attacks can be used in conjunction with each other, usually making an opening for the next attack. The fighting style also revolves around aerial combat and smashing the opponent into the ground. Nothing is really special about the fighting style other than how wild the attacks are however their exists a way to unlock higher levels of power from this fighting style by following the Path of the Ashura. The Path of the Ashura involves a path of bloodshed & murder killing with those with large body counts eventually learning how to project their murderous intentions outward resulting in the formation of a demonic entity which hovers above them. Eventually this entity changes form being a mere optical illusion into an actual presence which can intimidate opponents into submission. This is known as "Demonization Mode" in which for a set price each turn the user can maintain the projection while harnessing this style which improves the Murderous Art's power and ferocity. The kata of this fighting style have no form, it just looks like a rampaging beast fighting. Body Count (IC) - Projection Name - Effect 0 - None - N/A - N/A At least 5 - Lesser Demon - Optical Illusion of a formless demonic entity At Least 25 - Demon - Depletes Intimidation Limit by -1 Each Turn At Least 50 - Greater Demon - I.T depletion by -2 Each Turn
Name: Murderous Arts: Kick Off Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive Range: Contact, Short (Knock-back)
Description: The user rushes at the target at full speed and then quickly stops in front of them often at Swift Release however higher speed can be used if available. The user then brings a leg up, aiming to kick the opponent in the chin , sending the opponent 5 feet into the air unless the opponent has D-rank strength or a D-rank air movement technique. The technique deals D-rank physical damage. This attack can also be followed up by some other Taijutsu techniques, preventing the victim's ability to avoid the follow up unless they possess an air movement technique equal to the rank of the follow up. Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode in addition to the damage from the impact the victim likewise has their Intimidation Limit depleted by -1.
Name: Murderous Arts: Diving Tackle Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive Range: Mid (Tackle), Contact (Impact)
Description: The user charges at the target at maximum speed before diving over to cross a distance of 10 feet. The user dives at the opponent's waist, pushing them to the ground unless they possess D-rank strength tiers. Not only does it do that but if the opponent lands on their spine, then it causes the opponent to be "stunned" due to the pain for 1 post (total) unless they possess D-rank endurance tiers. If this technique is used after "Kick Off" (if hitting an opponent in the opposite direction as Kick Off's knockback) the technique deals C-rank physical damage and sends the opponent towards the ground (5 feet). This also raises the duration of the stun to 2 posts (total), and the endurance tiers needed to nullify the effect would be C-rank. Now the main use for this technique is to hold the target in place so the user can pummel them. While tackling the target, the user bends his legs so when they land the opponent is being pinned down by the user's knees. Because of the position they are in, the target needs D-rank strength to free themselves or to move their hands to make hand seals to escape or counter. Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode this technique doubles the depletion rate of a victim's intimidation limit while they are pinned underneath the opponent.
Name: Murderous Arts: Mini Barrage Classification: Taijutsu Rank: B Class: Offensive Range: Contact
Description: The user strikes at the target with their fists 10 times, 5 times with each hand in rapid succession. This technique is usually preformed at Crashing ground however higher tiers can be used if available and deals D-rank physical damage per jab. When combined with higher tiers it can be useful to fake out an opponent or increase the difficulty of dodging by either altering or increasing the speed it is preformed at respectively. Not only does it do that but if the punches connect with someone in the head, then it causes the opponent to be dizzy for 3 posts (total) per connected jab unless they possess D-rank reaction tiers. If this technique is used after "Diving Tackle", the technique deals C-rank physical damage per jab and knocks the opponent's head against the ground. This also raises the duration of the dizziness to 4 posts (total) per jab, and the reaction tiers needed to nullify the effect would be C-rank. Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode a victim of the "Dizzy" Status will be unable to move at or above Max Tier levels (Min. 2 above Standard Tier Level) without falling. However if used after "Diving Tackle" the "Dizzy" Status will prevent them from moving above Standard Tier levels without falling.
Name: Vampire Supplements – Blood Consumption Classification: Juinjutsu (Vampires Only) Rank: C-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Short/Self
Description: The user creates a tiny seal that takes the appearance of a circle. Within the circle, the kanji for “Consume” will appear, completing the creation of this Cursed Seal of the Vampire supplement. This supplement was created along side the host's prominent canines. Upon the host biting the target, they are able to suck their blood, an amount equal to the host's rank each post, until the target is completely drained or the host releases them. If the host has wasted blood throughout the topic, they will replenish their reserves, however if their blood reserves are full, draining another person will increase their blood reserves permanently. This seal is placed outside the star of the Cursed Seal of the Vampire similar to other supplements.

| His opponent would succumb to the blow and would be feasted upon, unfortunately he wasn't of age either, and would instead only give him whatever blood was remaining within his body, though as he lay dying the doors would open and another opponent would emerge, he was a stout man with a battle-axe, and he would walk in as if he had no concerns. He would actually wait for Zaku to finish his meal before assuming a fighting stance, most likely waiting for the vampire to make the first move instead of taking the initiative for himself. Either he was brave, stupid or he actually had a reason to be so confident either way, he radiated danger, whether it was for himself or Zaku time would tell. As for the axe, it was fairly ornate with writing on it that couldn't be made out that clearly because whomever engraved it had terrible hand writing. - Spoiler:
Zaku gains 1 B-rank, 1 C-rank & 2 D-ranks of Blood.
Name: Vampire Supplements – Blood Consumption Classification: Juinjutsu (Vampires Only) Rank: C-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Short/Self
Description: The user creates a tiny seal that takes the appearance of a circle. Within the circle, the kanji for “Consume” will appear, completing the creation of this Cursed Mark of the Vampire supplement. This supplement was created along side the host's prominent canines. Upon the host biting the target, they are able to suck their blood, an amount equal to the host's rank each post, until the target is completely drained or the host releases them. If the host has wasted blood throughout the topic, they will replenish their reserves by how much blood was drained, however if their blood reserves are full, draining another person will increase their blood reserves permanently (Caps at Quadruple Original Max Blood Reserves). This seal is placed outside the star of the Cursed Mark of the Vampire similar to other supplements. A vampire can only possess one type of Consumption. ^ This technique was updated, use the current version to avoid inconsistencies.

| Zaku finished draining the male dry and stood, looking at the other oaf that had entered the arena. He looked him up and down with a smirk on his face. This one was big, so he was bound to give more of a fight. Well...these were low-level fights. Zaku couldn't really expect much from them other than a good feast. The male shrugged and took off towards the other at B-Rank+ Speeds, like he had before. He cocked his fist back and brought it forth at A-Rank+ Speeds, though rather than using it to hit is opponent, he aimed for the hand the man used to hold his axe. He hoped the pain and the force would be enough to knock the man's hand back and send the axe flying away from him. After all, an opponent without a weapon was no opponent at all. After he threw out his punch, Zaku would take a step back before lifting his right leg and snapping it out at A-Rank+ Speed, aimed directly at the man's chest. Zaku aimed to incapacitate his opponent before he made his move to feast once more. - Spoiler:
Zaku's New Max Blood Reserves: 3 SSS, 1A, 2D or 57C and 2D
Zaku covered the distance with B-Rank+ Speed Ferocious Punch = Aimed at axe hand with A-Rank+ Speed, dealing D-Rank Damage to the man's hand and knocking the axe 10ft due to Demonization. D-Rank Strength required to hold onto the axe. Driving Leg = D-Rank Damage to his chest from kick performed at A-Rank+ Speed. Forces him to exhale for the next post, making him incapable of anything else, unless he possesses D-Rank Endurance tiers. Ineffective if he does not require respiration. 5ft knockback due to Demonization Mode.
-2 I.L. Drain from Demonization
Name: Murderous Arts: Ferocious Punch Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive Range: Contact, Short (Knock-back), Mid (Demonization Mode)
Description: The user forms a fist with either hand, cocks it back and sends it at the target full speed. This attack is usually preformed at swift release speeds however additional speed can be used if available and deals D-rank physical damage. Not only does it do that but if the fist connects, it sends the opponent flying back 3 feet unless they possess D-rank strength tiers. If this technique is used after "Kick Off" (if hitting an opponent from a different direction as Kick Off's knockback), the technique deals C-rank physical damage and sends the opponent towards the ground (5 feet). Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode the knockback from this technique is instead increased to 10 feet, with the opponent potentially sustaining additional damage upon crashing into an object while hurtling through the air.
Name: Murderous Arts: Driving Leg Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive Range: Contact, Short (Demonization Mode)
Description: The user leans back onto one leg. the other leg the bends, cocking back and then it thrusts forward at maximum speed, aiming to hit the target in their sternum. This technique is usually preformed at swift release speeds however higher speed tiers can be used if available and deals D-rank physical damage. Upon being hit if the victim does not possess D-rank endurance tiers their next post they are forced to take an exhale as the impact from the kick forces them to exhale the air in their lungs making them unable to do anything until they have inhaled unless they do not require air to breath. If this technique is used after "Kick Off", the victim is left to catch their breath for their next two posts during which they are unable to move at their max tier levels due to a shortness of breath while the Endurance Tiers needed to negate this is now C-rank. Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode this technique likewise causes knockback of 5 feet, with the opponent potentially sustaining additional damage upon crashing into an object while hurtling through the air.

| The man would be too slow to reach having his axe knocked out of his hand, and his axe would go flying, while his eyes would widen in slight shock at how fast his opponent moved, then it came to the follow up in which Zaku would launch a kick at him. He would be knocked back five feet landing but another five away from where his axe had become embedded in the ground, but contrary to being winded by the strike he would just get up and proceed to stand. The man would jump back five feet using D-rank strength and reach down to pick his axe back up. From there he would place it on his back and assume a better fighting position so as to deal with his much faster opponent. This time, the fight would be different as now he had gauged the level of his opponent and would thus be better prepared for his sudden increase in speed. - Spoiler:
D-rank Strength Tiers D-rank Defense Tiers D-rank Endurance Tiers
Name: Strong Fist Classification: Fighting Style Rank: D-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Self
Description: Strong Fist which is also known as "Goken" is powerful taijutsu fighting style, the purpose of which is to cause external damage and break bones. This style of fighting involves smashing your opponent and is generally used only by extremely physically powerful and dominating shinobi, however it has become the defacto fighting style for ASN Shinobi over time. As a result often victims are swept up in the user's kata being unable to counter-act simply due to the force of impact rag dolling them through the air unless they possess strength tiers at least Equal-rank- (I.e D-rank technique requires D- Strength) if no strength tier check is specified within the technique. It was made so that even those without strength tiers can use it effectively to dish out damage. Rank of Strong Fist Technique - Str Tier Req. to Negate Knock-Back (Knockback Dealt) D - D- (1ft) C - C- (2ft) B - B- (3ft) A - A- (4ft) S - S- (5ft)

| Zaku was a bit shocked when the male simply shrugged off his attacks as if they were nothing. Zaku shook his head a bit and simply placed his hand on his sword hilt. The male was in perfect range, for what Zaku was about to do, but the vampire was a bit sad to waste all that good blood. Oh well. I can always drain the next one dry. Zaku would pull his sword from it's hilt with a fluid twist of his wrist at A-Rank+ Speed, the blade being coated in a bloody red aura. The aura extended the blade a full 20ft, placing the male right in the range of Zaku's deadly strike. The Iai Slicing blow was aimed directly at the male's neck, no doubt resulting in his head being sent flying. - Spoiler:
Samurai Saber = Defense tiers ineffective due to Life-Force imbued aura; Short Range Kenjutsu increased by 20ft Iai Slicing aimed at the male's neck: C-Rank Reaction via Raidengan = Can hit anything moving at C-Rank Speed or below A-Rank+ Speed = S-Rank Damage
Name: Samurai Saber Technique Classification: Fighting Style Rank: C-rank Class: Offensive Range: Contact (Sword), Varies
Description: Unique to Samurai, this technique employs the concept of energy (Chakra, Nen, Life-force, Natural Energy etc) flow in a similar manner to the Flying Swallow and other chakra imbued kenjutsu techniques. Through the use of energy flow, the user channels their energy through their swords, extending both the reach and cutting ability of the blade (Short-Mid), while allowing the user to fire crescents of energy whenever the blade is swung (Mid-Long). The samurai have also shown the ability to use shape transformation during the implementation of this technique, sculpting their respective energy blades into various rudimentary weapons that extend beyond the natural dimensions of their original swords; such as broadswords, spiked shafts and even axes. This capability allows them to rely on smaller swords, sword hilts or even snapped or broken swords, while attaining greater reach, damage and the possibility of conducting surprise attacks as necessary. Multiple shapes can be formed each one having it's own word-count and each taking a D-rank technique slot upon being learned while when the mid-range version of this technique is used all Short-range Kenjutsu techniques have their range increased by +20 ft. *Pseudo/True All Taijutsu Only - This transformation quality also appears to extend to even the crescents of energy launched from the blade, forming a diverse range of projectiles that includes giant buzz-saws and shafts of energy, the shape of which are seemingly dependent on the structure of the previously formed weapon. Rank - Length of Blade - Type of Weapon - In-Battle Training Word Count (Solo Training) D - Under 1ft - Bladed Melee - 100 (50) C - Within 5ft - Blunt Melee - 200 (100) B - Within 10ft - Piercing Melee - 400 (200) A - Within 15ft - Pole-arm Melee - 600 (400) S - Within 20ft - Bladed-Whip/Chain - 800 (600)
Name: Iaido Classification: Fighting Style Rank: D-rank (Cypher Only) Class: Offensive Range: Close (Proximity to Trigger), Short (+Displacement Aura)
Description: Iaido refers to a specific style of kenjutsu that is concerned with the smooth, controlled movements of drawing the sword from its scabbard, striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade, and then replacing the sword in the scabbard. The linear motion and force applied to draw the sword from its scabbard result in much faster slashes than ones realised with the sword already drawn. This is explicitly used by Cypher simply due to their mastery of weapon based combat which allows them to literally stop opponents from preforming equal rank ninjutsu if they are within a set amount of of the opponent and use this technique. If the opponent doesn't stop however they will sustain damage thus interrupting them from completing their technique & causing them to waste the chakra used in the technique requiring hand-seals. Iaido is very specific in it's timing and proximity to determine the exact speed at which an Iaido technique can intercept hand seals at a set speed, Iaido techniques are by definition Contact range, any time an Iaido technique has any rage above Contact (Short, Mid & or Long) it means it involves the use of Displacement Aura to extend the range. If the Cypher lacks that type of Displacement Aura then the rage is dropped back down to Close or whatever the max range they can get when utilizing displacement aura. Proximity to Opponent - Hand-Seal Speed Interrupted 5ft - Equal-Rank (For Example D-rank Speed) 4ft - Equal-rank+ (For Example Swift Release) 3ft - Equal-rank++ (For Example D-rank Speed+Strength) 2ft - 1-rank- Higher (For Example C-rank- Speed) 1ft - 1-rank Higher (For Example C-rank Speed)
Displacement Aura Type = Range Modifier (Range Name & Techs Associated with said range) Base = +1 (Contact-Short) Enhanced = +5 (Contact-Short or Short if S-rank Tech) Base+Enhanced = +6 (Contact-Short if D-rank Tech or Short) Rage = +10 (Contact-Short, Short-Mid if C-rank, Mid-Long if D-rank) Base + Rage = +11 (Conctact-Mid if B or S, Short-Mid if C, Mid if A) Enhanced + Rage = +16 (Mid-Long if D, Short-Mid if C, B, Short if A, Contact-Short if S) Base + Enhanced + Rage = +17 (Mid-Long if D, Short-Mid if C, B, Mid-Long if A, Contact-Short if S)
Name: Iai Slicing Classification: Kenjutsu Rank: C-rank Class: Offensive Range: Short-Range
Description: Adhering to the principles of Iaidō, the user performs a quick and powerful slash with their sword in order to cut the intended target, before immediately resheathing the blade afterwards. This technique is a powerful C-rank technique simply due to the speed in which it is preformed as it can slice a person moving at C-rank speed as if it was nothing. In addition when the user has speed tiers the damage is increased by 1-rank above the user's speed tiers, if they have reaction tiers above C-rank the speed of the opponent they can slice is increased to be equivalent with their reaction tiers. Reaction Tier (Spd Iai Slicing can hit) - Speed Tier (Dmg Dealt) D - (D) - None (D) C - (C) - D (C) B - (B) - C (B) A - (A) - B (A) S - (S) - A (S)

| So this guy was decapitated or some shit like that, laying lifeless on the floor as the next mofo was pushed through the gates and into the arena. He was around 40 years old and looked a little pundgy, definitely running with a big of a dad bod. God dammit, I just wanted to feed my fucking pet dog. The homeless man would think as he looked around at the current dead foes. Poor puppy. Anyway, first step, Hidden mist. Bang, invisible. Second step, clone justu. Bang, two stinky dudes. Third step, split up. Bang, confusion. One ran left the other ran right, both pulling out a kunai from their sweaty armpits as they tried to flank the dude as best they could. Hopefully he was a derp high ranking Shogunate who can't see through basic techniques, otherwise this was a pretty stupid plan. Surely the next guy will get better at dealing with him though. Who knows, maybe the D-Ranks will even be able to kill him? - Spoiler:
Name: Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique Classification: Ninjutsu Rank: D-rank Class: Supplementary Range: AOE
Description: The user makes hand signs before either expelling or drawing from a water source a mist which fills an area surrounding a 40ft radius around themselves. Due to being mixed in with the user's chakra it conceals the area hampering normal vision in addition to method of chakra sensory with victims only being able to detect the users chakra signature uniformly through the mist. It is incapable of fooling Dojutsu with X-ray vision however those with chakra vision such as the Itsugan have their advantages cancelled. Those with enhanced senses or a D-rank area dispersal technique and either get around the loss of vision or disperse the mist to restore sight.
Name: Clone Jutsu Classification: Ninjutsu Rank: D-rank Class: Supplementary Range: N/A
Description: This technique creates intangible copies of the user. The clones are simply illusions and will dissipate when they come into contact with something.

| Unfortunately for old fatty, Zaku's First Stage Raidengan was active, granting him Electrolocation. Zaku scoffed as he was easily able to pick out his target, moving through the mist at Bullet Release speed in order to meet the real guy, bringing his head back before bringing it forwards in order to crash into the guy's head, before dipping low into a bit of a spin at Bullet Release speeds, his sheathed katana slamming into the guy's head in order to knock him down. Once the man was down for the count, Zaku would climb atop him and begin draining him of his blood quickly, attempting to inflate his own blood reserves as well as kill his target. - Spoiler:
Electrolocation granted by the Raidengan allows the old guy to be seen C-Rank+ Speed to close the distance between them
Smashing Headbutt at C-Rank+ Speed for D-Rank Physical Damage, leaving the guy dizzy for 5 P.T. Unless he possesses D-Rank Reaction Demonization Mode in effect: -2 from the I.L., the guy is incapable of moving at Max Tiers without falling should he be dizzied
Tenmetsu Style: Heel Kick at C-Rank+ Speed, knocking him over if he does not possess C-Rank Strength or a C-Rank Balancing technique
Name: Murderous Arts: Smashing Headbutt Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive/Supplementary Range: Contact, Short (Knock-back)
Description: The user leans back while cocking back their head, which can likewise be used to dodge an incoming attack aimed at the head moving at D-rank speed. Once the head is cocked back the user thrusts forward at maximum speed (Swift Release+), aiming to hit the target with their head. This technique typically is used as a quick counter and deals D-rank physical damage. Not only does it do that but if the headbutt hits someone in the head, then it causes the opponent to be dizzy for 5 posts (total) unless they possess D-rank reaction tiers. If this technique is used after "Kick Off" (if hitting an opponent from the opposite direction as Kick Off's knockback), the technique deals C-rank physical damage and sends the opponent hurtling towards the ground (5 feet). This also raises the duration of the dizziness to 10 posts (total), and the reaction tiers needed to nullify the effect would be C-rank. Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode a victim of the "Dizzy" Status will be unable to move at or above Max Tier levels (Min. 2 above Standard Tier Level) without falling.
Name: Tenmetsu Style: Heel Kick Classification: Taijustu Rank: C-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Short
Description: This is the Tenmetsu style variant of one of the most basic techniques available to samurai which unlike the original technique instead of the samurai planting their sword and striking with the heel of their foot they do the opposite. This allows them to suddenly stop and spin using the back of their katana to sweep an opponent off their feet even if they possess C-rank strength to root themselves in place. If an opponent lacks a C-rank balancing technique or has C-rank+ strength but was moving before the sweep then they end up tripping and falling to the ground leaving them vulnerable to a follow up if they lack a ground movement technique or reaction tiers.

| Oh yes, he smashed the head already. Smashed it real nice and good. Except it was the wrong head, or rather, it was just a head. Suddenly there was a Kunai whipping it way towards him from behind, moving at Bullet release speeds with C-Rank piercing intent. You see the old stinky dude was actually kinda intelligent. When he was looking around earlier, he actually found the perfect replacement target, replacing himself with the decapitated head of the former challenger, intelligently removing himself from harms way with the ability for a reversal attack. Unfortunately it will still probably be completely ineffective. But hey, it was still a pretty decent idea, lets be honest. The clone on the other hand, would continue running around in circles for a lack of anything better to do, flailing its arms as if it were capable of hitting shit. Stupid clone. - Spoiler:
C-Rank speed + C-Rank strength tiers.
Name: Body Replacement Jutsu Classification: Ninjusu Rank: D-rank Class: Supplementary Range: N/A
Description:This jutsu lets the user quickly switch places with another nearby object, such as a plant (normally a section of a log), an animal, or even another person within reach using the Body Flicker Technique, the moment an attack hits.

| The kunai found it's mark, and Zaku was rather annoyed with it. He yanked it from his back, feeling his natural regeneration knitting the wound closed as he turned to face the pile of shit that thought that would actually do anything. Zaku was being nice, but now? Oh the man was gonna know pain intimately. Zaku turned to the real guy once more and took off, this time at B-Rank+ Speed, since the other was apparently capable of moving pretty fucking fast for a fat-ass tub of lard. However instead of simply moving like he had before, he would take a more stealthy approach. He would kill silently. Once close, his left hand would shoot out, his sleeve fluttering a bit before it began writhing, two large snakes slithering out to close the distance between Zaku and the man at B-Rank Speeds. The snakes would wrap around the man, each one squeezing with B-Rank Strength, though their respective strengths would combine due to the nature of the technique for a total of A-Rank Strength holding the bastard in place. The snakes held the man in such a way that his neck was in plain view for Zaku to attack, and so the vampire did, beginning to drain the man dry with fervor in order to replenish his reserves. - Spoiler:
-2 from I.L.
Silent Killing: Reaction equal to speed or sensory medium other than sight or Chakra sensory to see Zaku
MBSGS: 2 Snakes summoned for 2 B-Ranks of Blood (Generic snakes) Old guy bound with A-Rank Strength, due to the two snakes possessing the ability to bind with B-Rank Strength respectively.
Zaku is able to drain a B-Rank of Blood per post (total), meaning the male should be completely drained in 6 posts (total) if he is not Faunus, or 9 posts (total) if he is.
Name: Silent Killing. Classification: Fighting Style. Rank: D Class: Supplementary Range: Self.
Description: As the name suggests, this technique is simply a very quiet method of killing an opponent, usually from behind with a blade. Additionally, because the user is very silent, it cannot be defended against. The user will often slit their opponent's throat, preventing any cry that might give them away. Skilled users are capable of tracking and killing opponents through sound alone.
Name: Sanguine Summoning Arts: Many Binding Snake Glare Spell Classification: Kinjutsu Rank: B-Rank (Variable Blood Price) Class: Offensive Range: Short
Description: The user summons a snake, the creature extending from their forearm or sleeve. This snake is able to constrict around their target and crush them with B-Rank Strength. Instead of summoning generic snakes, the user instead able to summon a snake from their contract, up to a maximum size of Large. These snakes are able to use their own strength in order to crush their target, while snakes with venom are able to bite their targets in order to poison them, increasing the lethality of this technique. A target requires Strength above B-Rank for a generic snake or above that of the summon's in order to break free of their hold. Due to this being a summoning, a blood price is required to summon the snakes and keep them summoned. This technique is an improvement upon the original, enabling the user to summon additional snakes with each arm the number of which being determined by their skill level. Due to being able to summone multiple snakes on one arm, the user is able to constrict a target with more than one snake, with the strength the victim is constricted with stacking like a combination jutsu with each additional snake. Rank - Snakes per Arm D - 2 C - 3 B - 4 A - 5 S - 6

| Well, I'll be honest with you here. I really didn't think that was gonna make contact at all. In fact, I specifically thought the electrolocation would spot it, but then again, I don't really understand that at all. Well, slightly proud of his hobo-ish moment, he would pause for a brief second in victory, before being strung up with no way of escape and his neck would ripped out, or at least his blood was. How very unfortunate for the poor man, and his poor masterless puppy which will now die in the streets. I suppose the crowd didn't get too excited by that previous round on account of they couldn't see shit. But as the man died, the mist would fade away, and their obvious victor would be shown, causing the four people in the audience to give out a very weak cheer, before snapping their necks to the side as the gate opened once more, and out stepped the next opponent.

The snakes retreated back into his sleeve and he wiped his mouth a bit, turning to look at the little girl that entered the arena. His eyes squinted a bit and he cracked his back, his eye reverting to normal in order to save his reserves. He crossed his arms over his chest and regarded the girl with a inquisitive look "Okay, one, what the fuck are you? Two months old? What the hell are you doing in a place like this?

"You're a meanie, so mean. I don't like swearing..." She would weep a little before continuing, fighting back the tears as she did. "I'm five and a quater!" She would exclaim confidently, having regained her composure, wiping away the tears and preparing to release the inner power of the child. "I'll show you, you fuzzle butt-head." She'd bring up her palms into a chinese tiger stike position, before creating two baseball sized ambient chakra balls in her palms, firing them off in succession with them both moving at Bullet release towards this vampire butt-head. Honestly, they'll hardly even sting...but hey, its a solid start. - Spoiler:
Name: Ambient Soul: Chakra Sphere Classification: Soul Tech Rank: D-rank Class: Offensive Range: Mid
Description: The Soulless gathers a small amount of ambient chakra into their palm the size of a basketball where it hovers. This technique is capable of being either launched which causes it to travel at swift release speeds while capable of being guided as long as the Soulless is above D-rank. Or it can be thrown to move at speeds equal to the Soulless's speed tiers, in both instances however it deals D-rank chakra damage to a victim.

Stupid-face." She would smirk, knowing she just fucked with his entire existence. Man, she just burned him so hard, he's probably suffering from mental recoil right now. But it wasn't enough, she'd continue with the barrage of super deadly insults. "And you can't leave once you entire the arena, or can you not read very good in the rules. HA!" Once again, she would fire off two rapid chakra ball things, before darting to the side, preparing another two ready to shoot off once again.

| He did the same thing he had before, though he dodged in the opposite direction she had moved. Unfortunately for the little girl, he was done playing around. He couldn't tell for sure, but by her attacks she seemed to be a Nova, and not a well trained one at that "I can read the rules, dipshit. But apparently, you didn't see the mention of death in there. I'll make it dreadfully clear for you." He bit his lip in order to draw blood, molding it to formulate the energy required for this technique. It was a minimal amount, and his Raidengan flashed to life in it's First Stage. He was able to make out the girl as the miasma he created clouded both of their visions, due to the Reaction granted by his Dojutsu. He had burned through a little bit of blood, but that was alright. He moved through the miasma silently, sneaking up on the girl and bringing his foot crashing up into her chin, knocking her 5ft into the air with the blow. Once that was done, he would cock his fist back before bringing it forwards at C-Rank+ Speed, slamming it into the girl's stomach and sending her crashing into the ground at the same speed. She would take damage from both blows, as well as additional damage from impacting the ground, alongside being stunned. Zaku would use the stun as a chance to lift her from her place on the ground and begin draining her of her blood. - Spoiler:

Name: Sanguine Heat Arts: Distortion Miasma Classification: Kinjutsu Rank: C-Rank (Variable Blood Price) Class: Supplementary Range: AoE
Description: The user expends some of their Blood before molding it and expelling it outwards from their body in the form of pure heat in an 80ft radius around them. Those within the area feel the temperature within it rise ever so slightly, but the most noticeable change in the area will be the creation of a potent miasma. This miasma distorts the vision of all of those within it, causing those within it to view optical illusions and such created by the miasma. Above all this miasma serves to conceal the user from many traditional forms of sensory. Due to the miasma being fueled by their blood, the user is unable to be viewed by life force sensory techniques equal to their rank and lower. In order to properly orient their vision, the target must possess Reaction tiers dependent on the strength of the miasma. Those with Time-Slowing Dojutsu or Muscle Tension will find themselves unable to track the user within the miasma unless they possess Reaction tiers. Those attempting to look upon the miasma with Heat Sensory/Vision will find themselves blinded for a set number of posts dependent upon the strength of the miasma. The strength of the miasma is determined by the blood price paid for it's creation. Blood Price (Strength of Miasma) - Reaction Tiers to See (+TS. D/MT) - Heat Sensory Blind Duration (P.T.) D (C) - C (C-) - 1 C (B) - B (B-) - 2 B (A) - A (A-) - 3 A (S) - S (S-) - 4 S (SS) - SS (SS-) - 5
Name: Murderous Arts: Kick Off Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive Range: Contact, Short (Knock-back)
Description: The user rushes at the target at full speed and then quickly stops in front of them often at Swift Release however higher speed can be used if available. The user then brings a leg up, aiming to kick the opponent in the chin , sending the opponent 5 feet into the air unless the opponent has D-rank strength or a D-rank air movement technique. The technique deals D-rank physical damage. This attack can also be followed up by some other Taijutsu techniques, preventing the victim's ability to avoid the follow up unless they possess an air movement technique equal to the rank of the follow up. Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode in addition to the damage from the impact the victim likewise has their Intimidation Limit depleted by -1.
Name: Murderous Arts: Ferocious Punch Classification: Taijutsu Rank: D Class: Offensive Range: Contact, Short (Knock-back), Mid (Demonization Mode)
Description: The user forms a fist with either hand, cocks it back and sends it at the target full speed. This attack is usually preformed at swift release speeds however additional speed can be used if available and deals D-rank physical damage. Not only does it do that but if the fist connects, it sends the opponent flying back 3 feet unless they possess D-rank strength tiers. If this technique is used after "Kick Off" (if hitting an opponent from a different direction as Kick Off's knockback), the technique deals C-rank physical damage and sends the opponent towards the ground (5 feet). Demonization Mode Effect - When in Demonization Mode the knockback from this technique is instead increased to 10 feet, with the opponent potentially sustaining additional damage upon crashing into an object while hurtling through the air.

As without the ability to see, nor the required combinations needed to counter this 'misma' that is royally fucking her up, there was very little she could really do to avoid this slow but steady sneak attack, coping the chin kick that lifted her up into the air, breaking two of her teeth in the process. This next part however, confuses me a little, as if she's 5 feet in the air, how does his fist hit slam her stomach into the ground? I mean she wasn't even 5 feet to begin with...but meh, whatever. It didn't really matter to be honest, because while she was in the air with a huge fucking headache, she'd teleport. Wait, with no eyesight that's not possible.

Or atlast it looked like a fitness instructor. However, the man had a dodgeball with him and something akin to a whistle, generating a sound. He didn't even waste no time with the witty banter, being one of his business and all. The man first blew his whistle and threw the dodgeball with C rank strength.

| Zaku clicked his teeth, as he knew better than to mess with any thrown projectiles. Hiro used enough Juin marked Senbon for that message to have gotten through very easily. Seeing as the others here all appeared to be rather weak despite the difficulty he had set, Zaku decided to finish this one as quickly as he had the others. The speed at which the other had thrown the ball gave away his capabilities, so Zaku decided to exploit that. He seemed to stumble a bit, falling until he was almost parallel to the ground, before taking off in a boost of speed, B-Rank to be exact. He moved slightly to the side in order to put distance between him and the dodgeball, while also closing the space between him and the trainer-esque male. If the male had tried to watch Zaku move in order to interpret his attack, he would notice a number of afterimages flowing behind the pink haired male, aiming to cause confusion and throw him off. Due to where the girl had been before, Zaku had been a mere 20ft from the entrance the male had come in through. Thanks to his usage of Shunpo, the distance was closed to 5ft, placing Zaku's opponent a very dangerous zone. He performed nine strikes at Vacuum Release Speeds, each aimed to slice the guy to bits, and thanks to his mentor's teachings, these strikes would be completely unreadable even by those with Muscle Tension or Time Slowing Dojutsu. - Spoiler:
Shunpo = C-Rank Blood used for B-Rank movement, covering 15ft about 5ft away from the Dodgeball's flight path. Shunpo: Bushin = Varies based on Trainer's speed: E-Rank/No Speed - 3-Rank Disparity, 6 afterimages seen, A-Rank Defense to negate D-Rank Speed - 2-Rank Disparity, 4 afterimages seen, B-Rank Defense to negate C-Rank Speed - 1-Rank Disparity, 2 afterimages seen, C-Rank Defense to negate B-Rank Speed - Equal Rank, 1 afterimage seen, D-Rank Defense to negate
Lack of Intent = Negates the effects of Time-Slowing Dojutsu when using speeds equal to victim's Rank. Negates the effects of Muscle Tension and Reaction tiers when using speeds 1-Rank above the victim's rank. 1-Rank below their speed required to make Kenjutsu completely unreadable to opponents without Reaction tiers. If Trainer has a T.S. Dojutsu - D-Rank Speed renders Kenjutsu unreadable If Trainer has Muscle Tension/Reaction - C-Rank Speed renders Kenjutsu unreadable If Trainer has none of the above - D-Rank (if max is C-Rank, C-Rank if Max is B-Rank) speed renders Kenjutsu unreadable.
Nine Dragon Crash = 9 counts of A-Rank Damage due to Vacuum Release (A-Rank+) speeds. A-Rank Reaction (Reaction rendered ineffective due to Lack of Intent) plus A-Rank+ or Above Speed required to notice and dodge the attack.
Name: Shunpo Classification: Fighting Style Rank: C-rank (Blood Price Varies) Class: Supplementary Range: Self
Description: The user enters a different stance semi-falling towards the ground while running forward using the momentum from falling to rapidly accelerate the speed of a slash and using that as a pull to drag their body forward at high speeds. This causes the user strain burning up blood equal to one-rank below the speed that they are attempting to reach capping out at 1 A-rank of blood to move at Blinding Light speeds for that specific post. Despite the overwhelming cost, it is highly effective in dealing with threats that out speed the user as in a single moment he/she can match their speed and finish them.
Name: Shunpo: Bushin Classification: Taijutsu Rank: B-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Self, Eye-Sight (Target)
Description: Following the use of Shunpo, and making use of the user's speed he/she is capable of leaving speed afterimages of himself from simply moving faster than a victim is able to track. While ineffective against those who actually can see the user move when victims are unable to track him they will see seemingly solid copies of the user in various stages of attack deluding them into believing that they are seeing him/her while moving. This technique is capable of being used to great effect against those who are not only unable to detect the user's movement but are also slower than him/her with the disparity between their speed giving rise to them being hallucinating seeing additional "afterimages". These Afterimages are nothing but optical illusions, nothing is actually there the victims brain is simply incapable of processing that the user has in fact moved. Those with time-slowing dojutsu but are still unable to detect the user's movement see double the amount of afterimages due to their dojutsu playing catch up with his/her actual movement. Speed Disparity Between User and those in affected by this technique - Bushin "seen" - Def Tiers to Negate Equal Speed - 1 - D 1-rank - 2 - C 2-ranks - 4 - B 3-ranks - 6 - A 4-ranks = 8 - S 5-ranks = 10 - S+

Description: Xan's Kenjutsu is deadly not because he uses Iaido effectively but because he has no wasted movement nor indication that he is going to attack before he does. This is something cultivated through practice to eliminate any sign of muscle tension as well as traces of killing intent and is a specific counter to those who utilize dojutsu which slow down objects as their "prediction" becomes useless when faced with spontaneous movement. This coupled with speed equal to their rank makes Xan's kenjutsu attacks unreadable to their eyes negating the advantages that such dojutsu have over him in physical combat. When dealing with opponents with reaction tiers or fellow True All Taijutsu user's with Muscle Tension if he possesses speeds 1-rank above them, then his kenjutsu can not be read, when fighting normal opponents if he possesses speeds 1-rank below their own and above then his Kenjutsu can not be read. Assuming there was an opponent with both Reaction Tiers and a Dojutsu which slowed down movement speed or a Fellow All Taijutsu Cypher with Muscle Tension & Reaction Tiers then Xan would have to possess speeds 2-rank's above their own for his kenjutsu to be unable to be read. If there ever was an opponent however..that was an All Taijutsu Cypher with Reaction Tiers and a movement slowing Dojutsu..then in addition to Xan finally smiling he would have to move at speeds 3 ranks above their own for his kenjutsu to be unreadable. Due to being Xan's apprentice, Zaku has learned this technique in order to reach the same level of skill as his master.
Name: Tenmestu Style: Nine Dragon Crash Classification: Kenjutsu Rank: A-rank Class: Offensive Range: Short to Mid
Description: The user uses the Tenmestu’s high speed to its full extent, dealing nine blows to the most fundamental targets of swordsmanship, all at the same time. These target’s of the focus of one’s tech as they make up the basis of one’s guarding stance, regardless of what weapon or style, making guarding and dodging impossible unless the target is able to notice the strikes. This technique occurs so quickly that victims without A-rank reaction tiers are unable to notice whereas those with reaction tiers require equal rank speed to the user in order to sucessfully dodge.

| It happened pretty quickly for the guy to take it seriously, even though he had a whole strategy planned out. As the man fell, a small ring would be in the ears of Zaku for the time being, but it was mildly noticeable Perhaps it’s just because of the fact that the man blew the whistle as loud as he did. The next opponent then appeared, clapping as he stepped over the mess of the floor. “Hey’ you’re pretty good. “ However, talking to Zaku was just a distraction as he maintained eye contact with him, mostly looking at Zaku’s arms to disable it. Maybe the fight would go quicker if Zaku couldn’t move them? - Spoiler:
Name: Upper: Cripple Stage 1 Classification: Fabrication Rank: C-rank Class:Supplementary Range: Eye-Sight
Description: The user gazes at their opponent's arms which results in the victims arms becoming numb and losing feeling resulting in them being unable to move or utilize things which require arms. This can be done in two ways, the first being just one arm which causes this technique to last for double the normal duration or both arms which results in the normal duration. The numbing effect lasts for 2 posts (total) however those with C-rank Barrier Tiers are able to regain use of their limb(s) within half the time period due to increased mental fortitude.

| Zaku had enough time to sheath his sword before his next opponent entered the arena. He lost feeling in in his arms and cursed his fucking luck. Of course he would be facing a damn Dakar. He was hoping to be able to save this until he was in a more serious fight, but he wanted to get this over with, knowing that if the other died he wouldn't have time to enact the effect again. He opened his mouth and a white snake slid out from his throat. The snake opened it's maw wide and a sword slid out hilt-first, and Zaku had enough time to channel blood to it before it hit the ground. The sword began floating before Zaku and he smirked at the other male. Just because he didn't have his arms didn't mean he wasn't a dangerous prick. He sent a mental command to the blade and it went rocketing towards the other man's chest at S-Rank- Speeds, aiming to pierce his chest with S-Rank Piercing Damage. - Spoiler:
Kusanagi Summoned SoK - LotS = A-Rank Blood Paid for S-Rank Strength and Speed, reduced to S-Rank- due to being controlled through mental commands. 3 Turns until the Blood price must be repaid
Kusanagi moves at S-Rank- Speeds to impale the Dakar with equal Strength, dealing S-Rank Defense Piercing Damage
Name: Sanguine Summoning Arts: Sword of Kusanagi - Longsword of the Sky Classification: Kinjutsu/Kenjutsu Rank: A-Rank (Variable Blood Price) Class: Offensive Range: Short-Long
Description: This is a technique that allows the user to levitate the legendary sword Kusanagi, enabling them to combat a target with the blade whilst performing another action. This technique requires a variable Blood price, this price needing to be repaid after a duration dependent upon the user's skill level. The sword is able to be manipulated in one of three ways: the first is with hand motions, this way being the best of the three and allowing the sword to move with Tier+ Speed and Strength. The second is with finger motions, being the middle ground of the three and allowing the sword to move with Tier Speed and Strength. The third is via telepathic commands, being the weakest of the three and allowing the sword to be controlled with Tier- Speed and Strength. The blood price paid to control the blade determines the speed and strength of movement. The price paid also determines the "grip" the sword is counted as when using Kenjutsu, modifying the properties of those techniques to fit the "grip". Despite the blood price, the sword of Kusanagi is able to move a maximum of 80ft away from the user before control of the blade is lost. Blood Price (Rank of Speed/Strength) - Grip Counted As D (C) - Improper One-Handed Reverse Grip C (B) - Standard One-Handed Overhead B (A) - Proper Two-Handed Perpendicular A (S) - True Two-Handed Parallel Grip
Rank - Turns Until Reactivation D - 1 C - 2 B - 3

| Once again, the opponent was moving too fast for the individual in the pits to comprehend with, S rank speeds and being able to still find the use of a sword, even though the hands were taken. The darker perished, leaving the armless zaku to his last opponent. However, the whistle from before was actually a magical item that was enchanted with a genjutsu of some kind. Zaku would start to have a negative hallucination as to how the opponent looked, as well as having difficulties grasping reality in the face of facing this opponent if Zaku didn't have C rank barrier tiers. It was a bit last minute, but something from the ground came back to try to bite him in the ass for his last low tier match. With the last opponent, he was making his way over, but started up with his handsigns, making a field of mist. The moment the opponent disappeared, slash from the katana they held would come soon after at C rank samurai speeds. What happened - Spoiler:
The whistle was was an item that causes a genjutsu of hallucinations to occur, basically using the ear drums to give a quick signal to the brain and cause a sense of disorientation. This would throw off Zaku's actions if he lack's C rank barrier tiers . Breaking out is easy, ether Kai, damage, or break the whistle *which should be somewhere.
Opponent - Spoiler:
Name: Hidden Mist Technique Classification: Ninjutsu Rank: D-rank Class: Supplementary Range: Aoe
Description: The Hiding in Mist Technique is a speciality of the ninja from Kirigakure, where one causes a mist to spring forth by lifting up some water from either a pre-existing source or expelled from their mouth, then goes in and out of sight at will from within the pearly-white realm. The mist's thickness is controlled by the amount of chakra kneaded into it. It can't fool the Zenreigan due to it's X-ray capabilities, but, due to the mist being created with the user's chakra, while any chakra vision capable (Raidengan, Kyougan, Itsugan etc) will see the mist coloured by their opponent's chakra, which will effectively hide the user from the dōjutsu.
Name: Silent Killing Classification: Fighting Style Rank: D-rank Class: Supplementary/Offensive Range: Self
Description: As the name suggests, this technique is simply a very quiet method of killing an opponent, usually from behind with a blade. Additionally, because the user moves silently, it cannot be defended against, because the attack cannot be anticipated. The user will often slit their opponent's throat, preventing any cry that might give them away. The user's use of this technique caters to his heavy use of the Hidden Mist technique, all of this techniques revolving around the use of the Hidden Mist technique now require reaction tiers equal to their speed in order to dodge or sensory techniques equal to their rank to detect.
Name: Hidden Mist Style Kenjutsu Classification: Fighting Style Rank: D-rank Class: Offensive/Supplementary Range: Short
Description: The Hidden Mist style of Kenjutsu is essentially a Kenjutsu technique based around the concept of Silent Killing requiring the user to sharpen their other senses in order to compensate for being unable to see or sense chakra due to the Hidden Mist technique. It allows the user to use there other senses to their best possible for a normal human, this allows the user to actually track opponents who do not hide the sound of their movements, breathing and things of that nature easier during the use of the Hidden Mist technique.
Name: Hidden Mist Style: Slash Classification: Kenjutsu Rank: D-rank Class: Offensive Range: Short
Description: A basic slash using Hidden Mist Style Kenjutsu as it's basis, the user swings their weapon forward suddenly throwing an opponent off guard and upon slicing a victim or making contact with another weapon the victim is knocked back an additional 5 feet at swift release speed or the speed that the weapon was swung at the target.

| Unfortunately, Zaku was a Vampire. He had no chakra system to effect, therefore Genjutsu was absolutely useless on him. Especially due to the fact that all Genjutsu, even those from items, are used to effect the chakra pathway system. As such, the Fabrication would wear off and he would be unaffected by the Genjutsu that the other had attempted to place on him with the whistle, putting him back at full fighting strength. Zaku had never deactivated his Raidengan, nor his Distortion Miasma, so he was still shrouded in the heat, making it so that the next opponent would be as blinded as he was. They would require C-Rank Reaction in order to see through the Miasma and target him, which Zaku himself had thanks to his Raidengan. He crooked his fingers and pulled his hand sharply through his chest, sending the signal to Kusanagi to rocket through the miasma, impaling the attacker, who was visible to Zaku through his Electrolocation, with S-Rank+ Speed and matching Strength, ending the fight before it had even started. - Spoiler:
OOC: An error has occurred where my Distortion Miasma was not taken into account. I apologize for not remembering having activated it, though it is still in effect. The last opponent wouldn't have been able to target Zaku without C-Rank Reaction, though that doesn't truly matter. Same with this one. As for the whistle, it requires some effect, rather than simply saying it "causes a sense of disorientation". This could mean a number of things. It has no effect on Zaku anyway, but that is just for future reference.
C-Rank Reaction + Electrolocation granted by the Raidengan C-Rank Reaction required to see through the Miasma
Electrolocation used to target the attacker Kusanagi moves to impale them with S-Rank+ Speed and Strength, due to Zaku using hand motions to control it S-Rank Piercing Damage to the attacker's chest
