She needent be told, in fact Aimi's words had fallen on nearly deaf ears as the beast had caught the wind. A scent carried through the air as sweet as incense presented before the gods. As the ancient deity was felt so too was the blood of his cage brought to her nose. She cast one last look at Aimi who had turned to prepare his spell and knew his task was all he cared for. And she would serve a second task as she slipped away in the growing mists.
She need see through the mist as most. Her nostrils flared and a low growl had rumbled deep from her core. Without consultation, and ignoring the conflagrations above, she wound her way through the buildings to approach the tower. She had placed herself on the side opposite the Reaper and Aimi's conversation, but made her intentions clear as the beautiful ringing of a bell in silence. One hand would strike through the wall of the tower, followed by another, and together they began to rend the foundations. A great heave would force their moarings to yield to her and she would enter. She had a mission to complete while here, but she hoped this would call out the prison and bring him to her, away from the Kage. To emphasize her point, she reached for a nearby counter to rend it from it's anchors. She'd then hurl it with full force straight up, plowing it through each floor in its path until her message was received. As the cloak was allowed to vanish, she began to look for the scrolls she sought, feigning at her task until her quarry came to her.
Screaming and running and the tell tale signs of the scant few who remained in the building fleeing for their lives. It was one answer to danger at least, and it kept them out of her way. However, she'd recalled that most of the students that went here would have reveled at the chance to face such a demon. They'd earn glory and reputation for even having fought. It was strange though. The few that she knew had seen her had instead fucked off with only whimpers or terrified screeches. Maybe Aimi was right, and she really did look as a nightmare made manifest. It didn't matter, the beast had what she came for now and began to pound her feet in the direction of the Kage's tower. However, she'd come to an abrupt halt as a small girl had appeared in her way.
The girl, no older than twelve or so, stood with a knife clutched in her hand and obvious fear radiating through her entire body. She trembled as she raised the weapon to Katsu and appeared to try and do a seal. . . she faltered. The primal woman locked eyes with the kid, though they did not fill with malice. As her ears aught the sound of someone running towards her she allowed herself to be momentarily distracted, attempting to find where it was coming from. In that instant the trembling child struck. She lunged forward with her knife and managed to plunge the blade into the gap between the armor at her hip. Instinctively she locked around the blade then reached down and grabbed the girl's wrist. Now there was true anger in her gaze as she lifted the girl to eye level, but it faded. Once more the footsteps caught her attention.
"A fucking pup has the sheer gall to stab me. . . And you're pissing yourself in fear when you do. . ."
The footsteps would get louder until they finally came from behind. Without turning Katsu lowered a wing and allowed the student to be seen.
"Kid. . . Remember this alright. Remember what you did here and do it every fucking time. Now, run. And you! Take her somewhere she won't fucking die."
With that Katsu uncerimoniously tossed the girl over her shoulder and retrieved the knife from her hip, throwing it back towards the girl as well before once again beginning to spring towards the Kage tower, smashing through walls on her way.

In the aftermath.
The group running through the academy rescuing any stragglers in silence bore witness to quite the sight as they turned the corner and finally came upon the freak of nature that was their true target; a fearful and yet contradictory brave young girl stood before the beast with a shaking blade within her grasp before finally charging the monster, only to be swatted away like a fly and casted over to the team with odd words of encouragement and praise for said fly before bolting through the walls.
Karen grimaced as she did a signal for her team to take the child and head back out before giving chase with a long series of handseals that she performed as rapidly as she could, tailing the draconic, demon, monstrosity through each hole as they barged through to the outside only for the path ahead to suddenly warp and stretch as the distance suddenly seemed to go on forever.
What Katsu may have seen as she finally re-emerged from would've been a chakra barrier that was erected around the whole ground, though surely it wouldn't take long to bust through much like the walls she had been doing so far if not for the fact the one she was headed for suddenly began to zoom away at great speed with the ever increasing path along her rampage.
The one direction that the rejected genma host was taking looked to have stretched on and on and would even delay the fastest runner, though of course it worked both ways and any reinforcements from such a direction would take longer to arrive and people giving chase wouldn't necessarily gain a benefit but a delay was basically what Karen was looking for at said moment as squads from over directions began to move.
Whilst the beast charged through the walls the stragglers finally began to emerge with team members notifying everyone on the outside what was occurring, indicating to Nishiki what direction to go as he in turn gave the signal to move having made sure to replenish the chakra in his swirling wings of wind.
With such command the outer squads began to move, including more backup that had started to arrive since Karen had dived into the building on the hunt, with Nishiki flying overhead until finally he heard the tremendous escape as the outer walls exploded outwards and the monstrosity appeared, creating a distinct alert within the basic host's mind.
"I have a feeling that... Mmm... If it is her" he muttered as the sightly beast seeped into his eyes.
"Just take her down" a seemingly nonplussed voice mentally scoffed, paying no mind to the so called 'monstrous' appearance. Suddenly the path ahead began to stretch and elongate as the outskirts of the academy appeared to zoom into the distance, adding at least another 130m between the outer barrier and were Katsu stood, though only in that one direction letting teams come around the building without hinderance as the pink haired fox came in from behind with a magenta chakra glow.
"Well I guess Karen is good at something, shishishi" he snickered, taking note of her prowess in space-time jutsu.
With a swoop down the current genma host thrust his palm towards the reject as a large pulse careened down to the ground, aiming to cover a large area ahead of Karen and fully around Katsu as sparks scattered around and aimed to fully shock the beast and slow her down just a bit as a full 45 control poured into it.
Hopefully with the tingling of diffused paralysis running its course and a speed reduction to boot, the jounin swiftly moved onto a set of handseals before breathing out a fast and snakey flame that lashed down at the split clone of a monster in attempt to then set her ablaze with the scorching fires of 45 strength katon, burning deep with fourth degree burns that would hopefully melt down even such demonic looking fleshy armours.
It wasn't clear to anyone there if it was truly Katsu yet and if she had anything to do with the reports of Aimi running about but it was now a mission in their mind to halt her actions and things were moving in full swing, even squads of lower ranked shinobi began to charge in around the corners though with a bit of a quivering look about them as they took in the voraciousness of the beast before them.
Nonetheless they still held a grasp on some of their courage as they felt the presence of a powerful space-time using jounin and essentially a master of all elements some would deem worthy of the title bannin with the level of strength he had achieved now, albeit still a youngling in the eyes of Katsu no doubt.

In the aftermath.
The hooded and masked Jinchuuriki dipped his head upon receiving praise from the Mizukage. This was not the first time he and the village leader had fought alongside one another. They had driven Katsu away from the village once before, and each separately had at least sparred with Aimi before he defected but neither knew the true extent of the Kaguya’s fearsome power. It was good then, that two of the strongest forces of Kirigakure were joined against these traitors. He could feel that his genjutsu had in fact taken hold of his opponents, though as expected their resolve wouldn’t be thwarted so easily. But it was a factor, a distraction that would force them to focus harder on their respective opponents, splitting them up into one-on-one fights. Katsu would come for him, he was sure of it, and therefore he could trust the Mizukage to handle Aimi. Truthfully, Shinjiro was wary to fight the Kaguya, simply for the fact that he felt the man had always been holding back, even when he had singlehandedly defeated his entire family, and with five years passed there was no telling what new skills the man had acquired. Katsu on the other hand was nothing if not predictable. He would revel in the chance to test himself against her pure animal brutality, a trait he had come to embrace in himself as well.
Aimi’s face appeared in the sky, manifested in flames. The visage filled Shinjiro with a mixture of emotions, but he quickly stifled them. This was not his fight, not yet at least. And true to expectations there soon came a rumble through the tower, foundations shaking, glass and concrete breaking. Stepping back away from the edge of the broken window, Shinji turned his attention downward. Either the tower would soon be falling or Katsu would come crashing through the floor, was his assumption. Either way he would be ready to meet her in combat when the time came. His hands moved to seals, ‘Katsu, let’s see if you’ve grown at all’ he considered. He had observed the woman had struggled to deal with elemental ninjutsu, particularly katon though as it turned out raiton was much easier for the young man to learn and suited his purposes better all around. Perhaps this would give him the edge he needed to match her unique body, that seemed so impervious to most forms of damage.
The desk came crashing through half a dozen or more floors, splintering and shattering until there was next to nothing left of it by the time its velocity had come to a stop. Flicking his wings, the Jinchuuriki lifted into the air before hurtling himself through the damaged floors. Green electricity sparked all around him, an ominous crackling and a trailing aura as his green chakra cloak mixed with the lightning, entering his first form but still not yet drawing on the power the form could grant him. “Katsu!” he roared, his upper spider arms drawing his pair of Katana as the beastly warrior neared his match. But that didn’t mean he wouldn’t employ his assassination tactics, to keep her off balance in more ways than one. He would take her apart piece by piece until even she succumbed to her wounds. At least that was his intention. Positioning into a Zantou stance while his wings guided him downward, he released a fearsome roar, shaking the building. He knew she would hear him, and it would make the fight that much harder for her. Illusionary mist, disorientation, nausea, her senses would be targeted one by one and soon her body would follow. Whether he was able to land or was required to redirect course into one of the rooms he flew through, as soon as Katsu was within 5 meters of him, he would exhale a 50-meter diameter cloud of poisonous green gas that would rapidly fill the tower in its entirety. All of his elemental jutsu were tinted green as a unique Jinchuuriki trait. It might be enough to give a sense of doubt as to the true nature of the cloud he exhaled, that was if she was even able to see it at all given the illusionary mist. Now, whatever she threw at him he was well prepared for a close-range fight. There would be little need to hide as he had done in their first encounter, she would find he had grown into a man fully capable of fighting her toe to toe should she attempt it.

Hosts with short hair will find their hair growing during this form as well. Additionally, the host is able to use Kaerujutsu based on their Genma Mastery stat, which involves transforming their whole body, opening up this new pathway of transformations.
*[Zantou • Winter Maelstrom]
A-Rank Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite(s): *[Zantou • Winter Blizzard].
Building upon its parent technique, this Stance further builds upon further sharpening and refining the practitioner's capacity to focus on the opponent and the task at hand. Drawing in a deep breath, the practitioner also gathers up their energy and releases a kiai. The level of skill the practitioner has attained allows the practitioner to effectively attack and block from a neutral stance without any detriment. While in this Stance, the practitioner can effortlessly ignore non-critical distractions, focusing solely on the opponent(s). They also are able to ignore extreme heat, extreme cold, moderate oxygen deprivation, extreme fatigue, and even extreme pain. They can read the opponents' muscle contractions and body positioning very accurately in this stance, and they are able to read the direction, the type, the timing, and the speed of an attack that is imminent. The opponent can still effectively mask their movements if they have a movement-concealing Stealth technique of equal or higher rank than this technique. While in this Stance, the practitioner is conferred with a +4 increase to Strength and Will Power but suffers a -4 penalty to Chakra Pool and Control. The practitioner may end this Stance whenever they so wish.
*[Zantou • Frost Dragon's Roar]
A-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite(s): 30 Will Power *[Zantou • Frostbitten Howl].
Zantou harnesses the inner strength of its warrior to cause the opponent to lose hold of their senses. A more advanced version of its parent technique, the practitioner unleashes a mighty kiai, which bombards the opponent with violently vibrating air currents entering their ear canals. Opponents within a number of meters equal to the practitioner's Strength must have a Will Power equal to or higher than the practitioner's Will Power to resist the effect of this technique. Otherwise, any opponents in range of the technique will lose all sense of orientation, balance, and proprioception, resulting in a -9 penalty to Speed for the next three posts in the form of disorientation and extreme nausea to the point of uncontrolled vomiting. This technique can be used in conjunction with other techniques. The disorientation effect from this technique can be stacked with other disorientation effects and refreshes the post limit for any disorientation effect currently imposed on the opponents.
[Deaths Breath] (5 Cannisters)
A-Rank Gas & Coating Poison
This poison affects the victim by being absorbed through the body or being inhaled and absorbed into their bloodstream. Each canister will deploy a 10-meter diameter cloud of light green poison that will linger in the air unless disposed of by some other means. Shinjiro can also infuse this poison as his own breath attack according to his Shinigami’s curse ability. Those affected will find their strength-sapping away as well as suffer from nausea and varying states of delirium with those with less than 20 Endurance barely able to process basic thoughts, vomiting frequently and struggling to walk due to disorientation, 20-30 and they will be disoriented with their vision blurred and balance skewed, mind cloudy. Those with over 30 Endurance will only experience mild dizziness and moderate nausea in addition to the sapping of their strength.
• Onset Time: Immediate
• Run Time: 4 Posts
• Effect: -5 Strength Per Post exposed
Used via: Shinigami’s Curse
After undergoing an extensive procedure procured in the Black Market districts of Rice Country, Shinjiro has had his body altered significantly. This change is entirely internal and reflects his ability to absorb and store poison within every component of his body as well as release a poisonous breath attack that is expelled at a speed equal to his strength and can travel up to 15 meters before expanding into a cloud of poison that stretches to Controlx2= meters in diameter.

In the aftermath.
This was the beginning of the end.
Things moved in motion in tandem to one another. Far away, a battle with Katsu broke out as Jinchuriki and his supporting forces met the other half of Katsu. In the same moment, Katsu and Shinji began their clash, shaking the Mizukage tower in their wake from the might of their conflict. But before these things, if only a moment or two, the Mizukage, the Reaper of the Blood Mist Village, was toying with his food. So utterly assured in his victory that he felt the need to gloat and take his time, the old man with the voice of death whipped up a whirlwind that began to suck Aimi's fire within itself, using it to harm the rouge Bannin's mother. Aimi could see all of this happening through his eyes of flame. He saw his mother's flame and even through the fog of his confusion, he felt that familiar white hot rage well up inside of him.
"You had your chance," Aimi spoke ominously as his fire was engulfed by Kasai's wind, said wind making it impossible to see the eyes and mouth of flame he had created by that point. Severing his connection to the flame but keeping his eyes closed, Aimi took a second to focus, to remember, what he had done before coming into the tower. It was all still so fuzzy and difficult to think about, but like his purpose for being there and Katsu's name, it came to him with effort. Raising his hands up in front of him, he would weave a quick series of signs, sending his chakra out to nine points all around the tower.
The signal for the end had begun.
Like the percussion of some great drum beaten by a god, nine explosions rang out all around the K-shaped Mizukage tower that tore into the buildings they were attached to, in some cases entirely destroying them while in others the blast waves merely traveled outwards and shook everything! What buildings were not immediately destroyed the fires that were created by the Kaguya's explosions would finish the job. These detonations were not without purpose, though, for Aimi had had a feeling that things would play out like this.
The explosions would serve three separate purposes. The first was to simply cause destruction to a village that the Kaguya had come to despise. Simple and unrelated to the task at hand. The second was to serve as a distraction for Kasai, for it was surely impossible for even the likes of the Reaper to not take notice of explosions happening all around him! Even if it was only for an instant, that was all that Aimi required. The third was to let Aimi see. Unforeseen as the genjutsu had been, for something like this there were things that Aimi could do to manage the symptoms, so to speak. Focusing his body - specifically his senses - just before the explosions occurred, Aimi was able to feel the waves coming off of his explosions as they wafted over him, giving him a clear image of everything around him for a hundred meters! Even with Kasai and his mother being up in the air, the explosives made him much clearer than they normally would have been to his mind's eye.
The booms were the signal for everything to happen simultaneously! At the academy, Nishiki made his move against the other half of Katsu, the half with the rogue bannin made her move by throwing a desk up through the many levels of the tower and Shinji would respond in kind, while Aimi? Aimi moved the instant that his tags ignited and rang out their uproarious song of rebellion! Leaping out of the window and sprouting his skeletal wings in the same motion, he would kneel on the ground before taking a mighty leap straight upwards - directly towards Kasai, his mother, and the fiery winds that harmed her.
With the amount of physical strength that Aimi possessed, it was no real issue for him to break through the barrier that Kasai had erected even if doing so left him lacerated and burned! The burns were negligible to him anyways, hardly even registering on his skin while the adrenaline pumping through his veins insured that the cuts he received were ignored as his body went to work healing them right away. Like an avenging angel he rose up beneath the reaper while the fires of his explosions were still expanding outwards, sightlessly climbing through the air to get towards his goal - his mother.
In one swift motion he drew his sword from it's sheath, slashing upwards to cut clean through Kasai's arm, the Kaguya attempting to use the instant of confusion that Kasai likely felt from the arson to gain the upper hand and the element of surprise! Should his gambit work and Kasai's arm (temporarily) be severed, Aimi would reach out and yank it from his mother's hair, regardless of if it took hair from her scalp or not, for it was better to have lost some hair than to die, catch the frail and wounded woman and throw her onto his back before twisting in the air and flying off away from Kasai, the tower, Katsu and the fight entirely! He had his mother in his possession, and now he needed to get her as far away as possible as fast as possible! If he could just get her to the top of the mountains surrounding Kirigakure, he could turn back and insure that she was safe by causing so much chaos within the walls of the village that it would be impossible for him to not slip away with the help of Katsu!
This was the plan. This was the gambit. Would it pay off?
Things moved in motion in tandem to one another. Far away, a battle with Katsu broke out as Jinchuriki and his supporting forces met the other half of Katsu. In the same moment, Katsu and Shinji began their clash, shaking the Mizukage tower in their wake from the might of their conflict. But before these things, if only a moment or two, the Mizukage, the Reaper of the Blood Mist Village, was toying with his food. So utterly assured in his victory that he felt the need to gloat and take his time, the old man with the voice of death whipped up a whirlwind that began to suck Aimi's fire within itself, using it to harm the rouge Bannin's mother. Aimi could see all of this happening through his eyes of flame. He saw his mother's flame and even through the fog of his confusion, he felt that familiar white hot rage well up inside of him.
"You had your chance," Aimi spoke ominously as his fire was engulfed by Kasai's wind, said wind making it impossible to see the eyes and mouth of flame he had created by that point. Severing his connection to the flame but keeping his eyes closed, Aimi took a second to focus, to remember, what he had done before coming into the tower. It was all still so fuzzy and difficult to think about, but like his purpose for being there and Katsu's name, it came to him with effort. Raising his hands up in front of him, he would weave a quick series of signs, sending his chakra out to nine points all around the tower.
The signal for the end had begun.
Like the percussion of some great drum beaten by a god, nine explosions rang out all around the K-shaped Mizukage tower that tore into the buildings they were attached to, in some cases entirely destroying them while in others the blast waves merely traveled outwards and shook everything! What buildings were not immediately destroyed the fires that were created by the Kaguya's explosions would finish the job. These detonations were not without purpose, though, for Aimi had had a feeling that things would play out like this.
The explosions would serve three separate purposes. The first was to simply cause destruction to a village that the Kaguya had come to despise. Simple and unrelated to the task at hand. The second was to serve as a distraction for Kasai, for it was surely impossible for even the likes of the Reaper to not take notice of explosions happening all around him! Even if it was only for an instant, that was all that Aimi required. The third was to let Aimi see. Unforeseen as the genjutsu had been, for something like this there were things that Aimi could do to manage the symptoms, so to speak. Focusing his body - specifically his senses - just before the explosions occurred, Aimi was able to feel the waves coming off of his explosions as they wafted over him, giving him a clear image of everything around him for a hundred meters! Even with Kasai and his mother being up in the air, the explosives made him much clearer than they normally would have been to his mind's eye.

Jutsu UsedShow
Used before setting off the explosions:
[Synesthesia: Touch to Sight]
A-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Heavenly Body Control]
Synesthesia is a disorder in which a person perceives one sense as another. With this Maneuver, the user may temporarily inflict this disorder on themselves so that they may detect touching sensation as visual stimuli; meaning that vibrations become visible. This allows the user to ‘see’ in conditions that would normally hamper sight such as extreme darkness, hazardous weather, etc. as well as being able to visualize what would normally be invisible to the naked eye so long as there are objects which can be vibrated. This does not allow the user to see things which cannot have vibrations pass through them, such as fire. Additionally, while it is possible to detect things which are airborne, discerning exact locations is much more difficult than people or objects which are tethered to the ground and are viewed as being ‘fuzzy’ or out of focus. The user may see things with this maneuver up to a distance equal to the user’s [Endurance x 2] in meters. The user may use this maneuver for as long as they wish but may only have one [Synesthesia] maneuver active at a time.
[Ninpou • Sealless Multiple Chakra Kai]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user will make the handseals and send chakra into as many as (control/5) different seals or objects at once, activating them. The range on this technique is 20 + (control/2) meters.
9 explosive tags planted earlier explode with 45 Strength
Death Bone Pulse • Skeletal Wings
A-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
The user will channel to ossify bone in their shoulders, growing a pair of skeletal wings at a speed equal to the users’ [Speed]. These wings have strength equal to the users’ [Strength]. These wings then ossify further as thin, hollow bones are added, mimicking the structure of keratin in the feathers of birds. These wings allow the user to fly, giving them a maximum speed equal to the users’ [Speed] while in the air and a maximum height of 30 meters.

In the aftermath.
The crash of wood and stone. The sundering of steels that groan. This was the rapture that assailed the beast of yore. Then came another that set ablaze the fires of hatred's haze. It lit the spark of rage like few before.
With thunderous bursting from all around a demon was forced to the ground. Ruby pearls upon the floor she growled and knew there was more in store. As the host of god lead the fight she turned and met him with unleashed might. A snarl, a growl, and challenge returned she spun on heel and roared in turn. His poison in her lungs did spread not helped by the fog in head. With power to make the titan's proud her voice rang out and it rang loud. The aberation scream her challenge back just on que. With primal hatred she bellowed
"VORASHU!!!"
Abandoned was her mission, the scrolls forgotten. All that mattered was hatred begotten. So great the fog she cared not the stakes. His life or hers the void would take. She spun and looked and found her pray, shaking the startle and pain away. Another breath, the poison deep, this roar she let cry and her monster's shriek. Thund'rous strong and filled with venom her heart pounding with rapid rhythm. The cry did blast the walls away, but oh she wished Shinji would stay. She followed with another breath and found no toxin the space bereft.
"I scream louder."
The woman taunted as she stood and her figure flaunted.
"Now, come stick it in me."
Filled with malice, child before to lose his balance.
"I might feel it this time."
As stone sundered it gave way to open expanse. The other walls had been breached but revealed a new distress. The path ahead was blocked, yet another wall in her way. That wasn't the greatest of the issues either, another problem on this day. The wall did move, growing distant as she saw. The effect did draw a his from her abyssal maw. Not all was this thread as she looked around and danger her eyes met. From above there was a creature with hands first spread. When they came together it was clear his intent was her dead. The seals were made the energy manifest. From here forward she'd be given little time to rest. As lightning cracked followed by flame she crouched and leapt without strength to wane. To wing she took and began to growl, the crimson malice manifesting her cowl.
"Hey dandy-dick!" she did roar. "You missed!" to taunt them more. With senses hightened she search around and many threats is what she found. The distraction was working but needed more time, direct engagement exact its fine. Instead she turned and found the wall once more, allowing wings to drop her near the floor. She hovered less than a meter high before pounding earth with foot and powerful thigh. She ran, ignoring the targets for now, through the wall she would plow. And given the chance she'd close the gap, then continue running with wings to flap. A shoulder into the powerful charge, through the wall she would barge.

Jutsu UsedShow
Vorashu's Fury: Anger
C - Tai (Disc)
After suffering a humiliation or injury or some kind Katsu grows rather angry. In this state of mind she begins to actively confront the sources of her ire in an effort to cow them. She'll begin growling, triggering Vorashu's Fury: Primal Aggression. An additional effect of this is Katsu growing more persistent and obstinate in the pursuit of her gratification through whatever means, becoming increasingly single minded. It grows increasingly difficult to deter her as she has further hardened herself against the effects of pain and fear though she can be reasoned with still.
Vorashu's Fury: Vorashu's Challenge (45 due to the poison)
A - PHT (Maneuver)
Requires: 35 Speed, 35 Strength
After a sharp inhale Katsu roars with primal fury. The roar creates a concussive wave of power that radiates outward at a speed and strength equal to her strength for the same in meters. Anyone caught in the blast will be struck and pushed back without equal or greater strength to her own. All within half her strength will suffer extreme hearing damage and sharp ringing until treated via outside means.
Vorashu's Fury: Primal Aggression (Endurance 25, Strength 45)
A - Tai (Discipline)
When angered, threatened, or otherwise distressed Katsu releases a low primal growl from deep within her chest. This instinct is nearly impossible for her to manage without conscious effort. Any within earshot of this growl ([Endurance]/2 Meters) and hear it that have a [Willpower] less than her [Strength] will likely be cowed as primal fear races up their spine, making it difficult to do anything but defend themselves.

In the aftermath.
All at once, hell had finally erupted around and within the confines of the Miuzkage's tower and the courtyard like area that separated it from the surrounding village area as the nine massive explosive tags detonated nigh simultaneously with one another creating a ring that encircled the most prominent feature of the village. His eyes widened as the waves of explosive force slammed against the fiery barrier created of the spinning wind from himself and the fire from Aimi, even a man of such fighting capacity couldn't help but be caught off guard for a few moments. Forcing him to focus on the control of the barrier as the pressure waves from the explosives hit one after the other slightly weaking the barrier that surrounded him and the mother of the traitorous bannin who had come back to his homeland to steal and plunder. 'Tch!' The word was only heard within his own thoughts now as Kasai flipped his gloved left hand and its fingers into a half house seal to help concentrate his chakra while the explosion and follow on from those very explosions clouded everything around him that was outside the slicing winds.
He felt a shocking pressure as his eyes drifted down to the fragile old figure gripped in the fingers of the right hand now, but his shock wasn't from her but instead the blade that cleanly sliced through the arm which had been holding Aimi's mother by her own hair. It was so fast and the technique itself so polished that the man had barely felt the pressure of it slicing through the wind filled elemental arm of his. But there wasn't anger on the man's scarred face but instead a slight smirk of amusement. The kid had really grown up, it was sad that today would be the man's last day amongst the living...he could have truly been one of the candidates to replace him as Mizukage in the future. 'Impressive, but it won't be enough to save her or yourself...'
As Aimi secured his mother, his body suffering from the slicing winds of the barrier, the right hand reformed in only a moment's time back to what appeared to be a normal arm as such a wound was truly just a minor thing for the man's elemental body. The left arm pushed forwards as a currently of ration from within the man's mixed elemental body surged and the palm pointed directly at the fleeing. With what seemed like a simple thought a mass of raiton was manifested and rapidly pursued the fleeing man. Ever so briefly the chakra of the Kage surrounded his body in a visible aura that was a mixture of red, blue, yellow, white, and brown. A symbol of a near absolute mastery over all five elements, temporarily boosting his own power. (55 Control with nth stat boost for one post - 1/5)
Kasai could understand the feeling that the man had for his mother, as it was this same feeling that prevented the old man from finishing his last assignment as a veteran jonin for the village when he was part of the HHD. His son had died, and his daughter had turned traitor against the village leaving and being a missing-nin. He had easily tracked her down and placed his hand on her trembling had as she cried and prepared to die at the hands of her own father, the legendary Reaper of Kiri. But the man had only sighed and turned his back to her, whispering for her to disappear. Yes, he understood clearily but that didn't stop him from pulling the trigger in that moment as his hand folded out into a knife hand like appearance as he stabbed forward with the left hand. The lightning smashed forward into a linear streak of bright lightning rapidly closing on the man's backside, sadly it put the tiny body of the old woman upon the man's back as the first target it would reach if the man was unable to fully dodge the wide mass of deadly lightning that Kasai planned to use to kill both of the tiny birds with a single stone toss.

In the aftermath.
The noise was almost deafening, it was clear that something of interest was going down people we’re screaming, shouting the village was obviously on high alert. He hadn’t heard anything like this since the Konoha invasion almost a decade ago.
Aizawa, Yoru the Bannin from the leaf village was sat inside the bedroom that had been given to him whilst on his diplomatic mission from Konoha. A single, nervously sweating guard stood in the room with him, his guards had being dropped drastically today due to whatever was happening outside. Sat on the bed, with his legs out and his back up against the wall Yoru sighed softly.
“Aren’t you interested in what’s happening out there?” The guard didn’t respond. “Just a little curious?” Nothing but silence which seemed to last an eon, the pair didn’t say anything for quite some time.
Yoru sighed once again and stood up. “Well, that’s me off. I’m going to see what’s happening.”
“I can’t let you leave!” stammered out the young guard, “Do you not know who I am?” Said Yoru with a chuckle and a roll of the eyes “How about we say I knocked you out and I go about my business, otherwise I’ll have to hurt you.”
The kiri guard thought for a moment and realised that probably would be the best option, but he couldn’t allow himself to do it. His fingers wrapped around a kunai lunging at Yoru, but before he could do anything, with a swift action Yoru met the guard head on knocking him out with a single strike, falling to the ground like a heavy bag of rice.
Not wanting to waste much more time, Yoru peeled off the eyepatch around his left eye. Veins bulged from the side of his head as the byakugan was activated, revealing everything to him. Taking some time to assess the situation, he finally nodded and slipped the eyepatch back on to reserve chakra.
Yoru allowed a slight amount of chakra to enter his system, his bones hollowed out and two large red rings ripped through his flesh, flapping vigorously. Weaving a set of hand seals, with a poof of smoke an exact replica of Yoru appeared. They nodded at each other, opened the window and flew up into the sky before splitting off in different directions.
The clone of Yoru’s long red wings propelled him through the air, looking down at Kiri and searching out for the young man known as Nishki. It hadn’t being too long since the exhibition bouts where Yoru had defeated the fox eared man but it seemed if he was going to help anyone the Jounin would be his best bet.
The clone lowered himself down coming towards the academy, pulling up the eyepatch once again the Byakugan came to live showing Yoru exactly what was happening. It was clear that the young Jounin was attempting to hold Katsu within the academy through a barrier. Though what little Yoru knew of Katsu and her physical prowess she’d break through it soon enough.
He moved round the side she was charging towards, weaving a flurry of seals as he went. Feeling a surge of pins pour through him as electricity engulfed his body ready to face Katsu if she managed to break through the barrier. Though if he was honest, he was hoping seeing Yoru there she’d turn back and face Nishki instead, knowing that was likely the easiest of the two choices and Yoru would much rather that the young Jounin’s life was at risk than his own.
Raiton • Cloak of the Thunder Cloud
A-Ranked Ninjutsu
After channelling chakra, the user will pour chakra through and out of their tenketsu covering themselves in a cloak of ration chakra. This in turn coats the body in a defence coating of ration chakra, able to withstand any attacks as high as the users control stat. Any taijutsu strikes the user make, will cut through flesh like steel, it will conduct through any metallic objects the user is holding and will lash out and any metal objects within a 10 metre radius. If a target makes physical contact either by grabbing, attacking or receiving a blow the target will have full body paralysis for 2 posts and receive 2nd degree burns. This technique lasts up to 5 posts. Speed and Strength equal to the user’s control.
Whilst the clone was with Nishki, the real Yoru flew through the air high above Kirigakure and not wasting any time. He had no real dog in this fight, but the opportunity to gain intel on the Mizukage was just too good to pass up.
Though he was here on a diplomatic mission, even though he couldn’t care less what happened to Kirigakure. It would benefit him and his own village if he appeared to be a hero, helping out Kiri it was simple enough to fake. As he moved in closer, he took in the situation and could hear the name Aimi being shouted. The notorious criminal in the bingo books? Interesting, what was he here for? Stealing? Revenge? He knew, for now it didn’t matter but Yoru intended to find out as much as he could whilst he was here.

His cheeks bulged out as five orbs all shot directly towards Aimi, hopefully stopping him mid strike. Yoru drastically reduced his own power over the jutsu, knowing if they we’re to strike Aimi they’d slow him down for a moment, but he’d break out of the sticky substance quite easily.
“Oii, Lord Mizukage! I know we have an appointment but perhaps we should move it to later, I can see you have your hand’s full!” he quipped loudly, he’d wait for the Mizukage to give him an order and he’d follow his lead as need be. Least for now.

Aizawa, Yoru the Bannin from the leaf village was sat inside the bedroom that had been given to him whilst on his diplomatic mission from Konoha. A single, nervously sweating guard stood in the room with him, his guards had being dropped drastically today due to whatever was happening outside. Sat on the bed, with his legs out and his back up against the wall Yoru sighed softly.
“Aren’t you interested in what’s happening out there?” The guard didn’t respond. “Just a little curious?” Nothing but silence which seemed to last an eon, the pair didn’t say anything for quite some time.
Yoru sighed once again and stood up. “Well, that’s me off. I’m going to see what’s happening.”
“I can’t let you leave!” stammered out the young guard, “Do you not know who I am?” Said Yoru with a chuckle and a roll of the eyes “How about we say I knocked you out and I go about my business, otherwise I’ll have to hurt you.”
The kiri guard thought for a moment and realised that probably would be the best option, but he couldn’t allow himself to do it. His fingers wrapped around a kunai lunging at Yoru, but before he could do anything, with a swift action Yoru met the guard head on knocking him out with a single strike, falling to the ground like a heavy bag of rice.
Not wanting to waste much more time, Yoru peeled off the eyepatch around his left eye. Veins bulged from the side of his head as the byakugan was activated, revealing everything to him. Taking some time to assess the situation, he finally nodded and slipped the eyepatch back on to reserve chakra.
Yoru allowed a slight amount of chakra to enter his system, his bones hollowed out and two large red rings ripped through his flesh, flapping vigorously. Weaving a set of hand seals, with a poof of smoke an exact replica of Yoru appeared. They nodded at each other, opened the window and flew up into the sky before splitting off in different directions.

*[Ninjutsu • Advanced Shadow Clone Technique]
A-Ranked Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals the user proceeds to create a number of clones of themselves (maximum is equal to 1/3rd the user's stamina). Unlike the Clone Technique, these clones are actual copies of the user in both appearance and substance. The user's chakra is evenly distributed among every clone, giving each clone an equal fraction of the user's overall power. The clones are capable of performing jutsu on their own and can even bleed, but they will usually disperse after one or two solid blows. The clones will be created in roughly the same condition as the original and any experience the clones gain during their existence is transferred to the user once they are dispersed. Given that the clones are an exact replica of the user, they share the same stats except for stamina, which is determined by the number of clones presently in effect. The advantage of this form of the technique is that once dispersed, the chakra distributed to the clones returns to the user, allowing any un-used chakra to be regained, slowing the draining usage of this technique. The chakra returns to the user at a different rate depending on the user's control.

16-25: 2/5

The user will allow sage chakra to enter their system and flex around their back, instantly growing a pair of large wings, with a wingspan of 16 feet and 2 feet tall that allow the user to fly, equal to their own [Speed]. They have a strength equal to the users [Control] and will last until they are broken.
Senpo • Hollow Bones of Tengu
D-Rank Sentaijutsu
The user will allow sage chakra to enter their system and focus on their entire body, their bones will become hollow. This will allow the user to reach full speed in an instant and also reduce any effects of vibrations, making it difficult for earthquakes etc, to knock the user over.

The clone of Yoru’s long red wings propelled him through the air, looking down at Kiri and searching out for the young man known as Nishki. It hadn’t being too long since the exhibition bouts where Yoru had defeated the fox eared man but it seemed if he was going to help anyone the Jounin would be his best bet.
The clone lowered himself down coming towards the academy, pulling up the eyepatch once again the Byakugan came to live showing Yoru exactly what was happening. It was clear that the young Jounin was attempting to hold Katsu within the academy through a barrier. Though what little Yoru knew of Katsu and her physical prowess she’d break through it soon enough.
He moved round the side she was charging towards, weaving a flurry of seals as he went. Feeling a surge of pins pour through him as electricity engulfed his body ready to face Katsu if she managed to break through the barrier.

In the aftermath.
Not more than a second after Shinjiro made his roar a series of massive explosions rocked the building from all directions. The sheer force of them all jostled the young assassin as he descended, wings adjusting frantically as he shifted to a controlled fall and braced as he landed on the bottom floor. His ears were already ringing before Katsu let out a roar of her own, powerful enough to blow out the walls around them. Shinjiro guarded with his wings in front of him, batting against the pressure blast with a powerful flap of his wings. Still, the combined force sent him toward the wall. His lower spider legs pierced into the ground, stabilizing him as he brazed, swords still raised in a Zantou stance. He had trained against the effects of dizziness and disorientation but still his ears would continue to ring and it would be very difficult for him to hear much of anything for the time being. Though he knew Katsu would be adversely affected herself. Between his illusionary mists and the dual effects of disorientation and nausea from his poison and shouts. Katsu would be far from her prime, and yet her rage would ensure she stayed and fought, charging to her own death.
While the poisonous gas occupying the ground floor had quickly vented from the room the upper levels of the expansive tower were still filled with the gas. And with the pressure blasts from all around the tower whatever gas escaped would only surround the building instead. And there was plenty more where that came from. He would happily allow Katsu to continue to huff and puff and blow the poison away. Fortunately, Shinji still had a clean line of sight to the woman, a distance of about 10-15 meters across a room full of broken furniture and chunks of rubble. He too could smell blood, at least a few civilians had been crushed from falling debris and survivors found themselves violently vomiting and incapable of doing much to escape. Though Shinjiro couldn’t hear Katsu he could read her lips and understand well enough her primitive body language. If she wasn’t always so eager to kill him he might have even found her naked form attractive but fortunately her consistent violence had always kept him on edge and his mind solely focused on killing her. “With pleasure” he retorted coldly. Katsu didn't know it but in his mind, she was already dead.
Bursting forward with tremendous speed he dashed at her aiming to slash into her femoral artery along her left leg, utilizing his crimson Katana, Chaos. No sooner than he struck he would be out of range again, taking full advantage of his superior speed and agility. Constantly he would reposition and attack from a different angle. His black sword, Agony next, aiming to sever a wing and wrack her body with pain. On and on he would continue, each strike aimed to cripple another limb. Leg, Wing, Arm, Wing, Leg. If he was able to continue. Naturally his wings would be prepared to adjust his angle and pull him back if she was able to counterattack. Even if he couldn’t make every strike a crippling blow he was sure his mastery of concealing his attack patterns and adjusting his angles would ensure he at least drew blood.

*[Zantou • Frost Dragon's Flight]
A-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite(s): *[Zantou • Winter Maelstrom].
The practitioner has learned to strike and defend with movements that shift suddenly and ferociously. This Discipline represents the practitioner's knowledge and mastery of movement and muscle control, to the point that their movements, attacks, and techniques have no telegraphing signs until they are already in motion. This makes it much more difficult for opponents to properly react to the practitioner's actions in combat. Opponents must have a sight-based or sound-based Perception technique of equal or higher rank than this technique to adequately read the practitioner's movements, attacks, and techniques.
*[Zantou • Frost Dragon's Fangs]
A-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite(s): *[Zantou • Winter Maelstrom].
Torquing the muscles in their arms, the practitioner unleashed a relentless flurry of twisting slashes and thrusts. With controlled twisting of the wrists and arms, the practitioner can immediately change the direction of any of these attacks, even to the point of converting a slash into a thrust and vice-versa. The unpredictability of this technique, complemented by the practitioner’s already muted movements, makes this one of the deadliest techniques in all of Zantou.
[Zantou • Frost Dragon's Claws]
A-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite(s): *[Zantou • Frost Dragon’s Flight].
A technique specifically designed to help the practitioner fight against an army, the practitioner breaks into a dash, weaving through their opponents. Using the principles learned from Frost Dragon’s Flight, the practitioner quickly launches sudden cuts and thrusts aimed at vital areas of the body, all while dodging incoming attacks, allowing the practitioner to potentially dispatch a large number of opponents with ease. The practitioner can keep attacking and dashing without stopping for a number of posts equal to half their Endurance stat, rounded down, though they may end the technique whenever they so wish as well. The practitioner may use other techniques while executing this technique as well.
Constitution
B-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 25 Endurance [Rigid Structure]
Having trained extensively in fighting through adversity and developing a strong will Shinji has developed the ability to fight through the sensations of particularly foul smells and tastes. He will still experience them but can do so without compromising his ability to fight. This also means he is able to avoid the detrimental effects of nausea and dizziness.
Combat Intuition
A-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 25 Speed, [Perception], [Close Quarters Combat]
A skill to maximize efficiency of movement, Shinji has learned to utilize his head and body movements to avoid incoming attacks without sacrificing maneuverability or speed. So long as he is able to anticipate an opponents attacks he can make minor ducks, shifts and weaves out of the path of most incoming strikes and projectiles, often allowing him to capitalize on counters based on the openings that a miss provides. Though typically Shinji must be able to perceive an incoming attack, after he has evaded a maneuver once he is far more likely to be able to anticipate and predict an opponent’s attack pattern, often beginning his evasion or block the instant an opponent begins their attack.
Lethal Precision
A-rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: [Deft Hands], [Close Quarters Combat] [Sword Weapons]
Shinjiro has fine tuned his accuracy with his strikes to the point where he can consistently target even a moving target within 1mm of precision as well as being able to find openings in his opponents guard and capitalize on those openings so long as his Speed is greater than or equal to that of his opponent unless they have an adequate defensive technique. This includes his use of bladed weapons and his own limbs.
Anatomy
A-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: [Medicine] [Deft Hands]
Having acquired a vast knowledge of the human Anatomy and its weak points Shinjiro can strike in such a way as to cause organ failure from direct stabbing attacks, either with his appendages or a weapon so long as his Strength is at least 5 higher than his opponent, affecting the target accordingly typically though not limited to including symptoms of extreme pain and nausea, potentially leading to fatal consequences. Similarly, connecting muscle groups can easily be severed via bladed strikes rendering entire limbs unusable unless adequate medical treatment is applied.
Shadow Step
S-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite:[Stealth]
Trained in the ways of an Assassin, silent movement is one of the Karagata families most esteemed talents. Shinjiro can move up to his full speed, running or flying without making a sound, be it footsteps, breathing, the drawing of weapons and movement of clothes. Even his heartbeat is slow and undetectable unless an opponent has an enhanced hearing technique of equivalent or higher rank.

In the aftermath.
Nishiki gritted his teeth as the strange beast known as Katsu moved with great speed here and there to avoid both blows against her whilst seemingly beginning to take to the skies, which wasn't great and pushed the fabulously pink beast to push in even harder to stop her as he swiftly moved to his next thoughts on what to do and flew in for a chase as his body glew a wild magenta.
"Focus more ahead" the foxy jounin thought as he eyed the monster.
Similarly Karen began to move in on foot with a long chain of handseals flurrying amongst her hands and the fodder platoons finally began to arrive on the scene ready for action, preparing themselves for action as their commander flew overhead.
"Wind!" he simply exclaimed as he moved in and focused on the path ahead, trying to predict Katsu's next move and aimed to strike just ahead with something quite huge.
With that a whirl of wind began to gather near the genma reject before surging up in a massive 24m radius tornado attempting to swallow up the demonic dragon and keep her trapped in the centre, cutting and slicing at her with every touch as it raced nearly 50m up into the sky.
Karen simply scoffed and nodded at the incoming teams of lower ranks before calling out in turn "Fire!" she commanded, calling as many to jump in and start spitting a series of fireballs towards the monster and though most would surely deal very little damage on impact they would begin to get sucked up in the winds as they set it ablaze.
Even the small spattering of flames swiftly spiralled up the twister and caused it to swell and surge into a burning inferno with further increased power, with everyone watching on with bated breath in the hope that Katsu would be trapped within.
However things would not halt there as the fellow leading jounin completed her seals and whipped out a pair or chakra treated paint brushes of sorts, thus with a flurry of waves and strokes chakra began to flow from them in the air before and formed a kind of spectral script that flowed out towards the surrounding area with flashes as each symbol completed in such an overly complicated fashion that it seemed nothing would come of it right at this very moment but she hurried with great haste to complete them with an impressive skill of ambidexterity.
Nishiki wasn't sure what was going to happen but made sure to immediately prepare his own next attack as he eyed and even felt the situation around him, feeling the tingles of movement that Katsu tried to make her own next move as he dared hope she truly got caught this time.
"Big Signature, outside the barrier!" the young sensor from earlier then exclaimed, unsure of what it meant which they could only hope someone significant had arrived as reinforcements; hopefully the ones who set up the barrier could identify them and motion them in to aid in the fight.

"Aimi!" the rouge bannin's mother cried, clinging tightly onto his back as he flew through the air. He was purposefully not going as quickly as he could for fear of her falling off and plummeting to her death, but still fast enough that her eyes were forced close and her grip on him was vicelike. He had to get away quickly while still holding onto his mother. Kasai would need a few seconds to grow his arm back and retaliate with some form of jutsu. He needed to get as far away as possible before then!
"We don't have time! Where's dad!? Do you know where they're keeping him!?" Aimi demanded to know, flying blindly through the air with his eyes closed, still sensing the surrounding area through his sense of touch. This high up he had littler fear of running into a building at any rate. He had his mother in hand, now he just needed to find his father and then -
"Aimi..." his mother gasped as her breath caught in her throat. "Aimi, your father is dead! He died three months ago while working for his masters..."
The revelation was sudden and profound. Aimi's father was dead, but there was no time to process this. He was silent as he continued to fly forward, internally, coldly, telling himself in the moment that it was one less thing he needed to do. He only now had to get her out, grab the scrolls he had collected and then -
Yoru's attack came then, the Kaguya sensing the pressure differential in the air as the balls of sticky water approached him. He was easily able to dodge them given his superior speed, diving and rolling out of the way of the orbs before rising back up into the air and picking up speed. He didn't know who had launched the attack just then but he assumed that it had been Kasai. With his mind still foggy from Shinji's genjutsu, he wasn't able to properly quantify the speed of the attack and conclude that it couldn't have come from the Mizukage. All that was on his mind was escape.
Then came Kasai's bolt of lightning.
Striking from behind with excessive force, it sent Aimi reeling through the air, struggling to correct his course and beating his wings furiously! Within seconds, though, he was back up where he had been and flying further and further away from the center of the village. Given the dual attacks that had come for him he threw caution to the wind and flew as fast as he could, reaching behind and grabbing his mother by the waist before bursting forth with a sonic boom as he raced away from his attackers and towards the lake. He had to escape, he had to get his mother to safety. His father was dead, but she was still alive, and he had to save her! "We're almost there, hang on!" Aimi called through the wind. He received no answer.
At first, the Kaguya did not notice it. The warmth on his finger tips that was greater than the heat of a body should have been. Nor did he notice the distinct texture, almost like that of a lizard's scales. It wasn't until he was outside of the village walls and over the lake that his addled mind took notice of what his hands were touching and made the simple realization. His mother shouldn't feel this warm, this scaly. Something was wrong.
"Mother?" he called out, coming to a halt in the air and straightening up. He had at least a couple of seconds to check on her. Was she alright? Why did she feel the way she did? Concerned and dazed, Aimi opened his eyes.
His mother hung limply on his back, no longer clinging to his shoulders as if her life depended on it. Her head rested against the back of his shoulders and her eyes stared off blankly into nothing, bloodshot from nearly every blood vessel bursting. Aimi's heart skipped a beat as he slung the body of his mother off of his shoulders and pulled it around himself to cradle it in his arms in front of him. He looked down at her through the fog, so close that he could see her through it, and her dead eyes gazed skyward. Her back was open and cracked, the skin blackened and burned, split open in places where Kasai's raition had charred her flesh. She was dead. His mother had been an unwilling shield to defend him against the assault of the Mizukage, and it had cost her her life.
Aimi stared down at his dead mother and... and...
And he felt nothing.
It was not the effects of the genjutsu that filled him with apathy, but the simple fact that he had not been willing to face until this moment when he was forced to confront it: Aimi had no real connection to his mother. Not for lack of trying by any means, he had made every effort he could to spend time with his parents and connect with them. The cold truth was, though, that he had only known his mother and father for a couple of years and had been separated from them the majority of his life. Even in recent history he had been outside of the village and thus had no possible way to spend time with them. In truth he'd barely even thought of them while he was travelling the world. His attempts at connecting with them had been one of obligation, a rational understanding that a child was supposed to know his parents and that, out of all the Kaguya, he was uniquely fortunate to be afforded the opportunity to try and get to know his birth parents at all. But it was all just that - obligation. He had not reacted at all to the news of his father beyond feeling that he had one less thing to do in this cursed village, and now, holding his mother's corpse in his arms...
Aimi looked down at the woman that had borne him into the world and felt not a spark of emotion... at least, not for her or his father specifically. Instead, something new was beginning to rage inside of him, growing rapidly and out of control. An emotion that, until that moment in time, Aimi had never truly experienced.
HATRED
Dropping the body of a woman he had known down into the ethereal fog and into the green napalm that resided below it, Aimi would turn his back on the retreat he had been so close to a second before and once more sped off - this time back towards the center of the village. To the Mizukage tower. To Kasai. To the man and the institution that had taken everything from him his entire life and given him only the power to kill and destroy for their own purposes in return. Aimi did not need the aid of of a genjutsu to cloud his mind at this point. There was only fire. There was only rage. There was only HATRED. Hatred for Kasai, for this village, for his lack of feeling about the death of his parents. Hatred for what his life had been. Hatred for how a fluke of genetic code could curse him to this, to not even be able to reproduce and have a child of his own to do better than the old man he had petrified and left as a statue of bone half an hour or so ago! Aimi was filled with so much hatred that he felt as if he was going to burst, his every vein throbbing as they pumped blood and adrenaline through his system, windows shattering in his wake as he passed over the buildings below in the merchant district and then the shinobi district. He was the incarnation of rage, and he was coming for the Mizukage.
At the lake, his mother's body fell with a dull, wet splat and began to slowly sink into the noxious green ooze that her son had created. Down she sank, never to be retrieved, never to be remembered. Her final act of love for her son manifesting as a raging spirit of vengeance that would leave nothing left in his wake. Annihilation was now Aimi Kaguya's sole purpose. No more holding back.
Kirigakure was about to witness the monster it had helped create.

In the aftermath.
The titanic beast of mythical might wretched and heaved as the poison worked its way through her system. The first strike came before she had a chance to recover. The blade cut deep through armored skin into soft flesh beneath, spilling scarlet life upon the ground. She growled but didn't have time to respond, the fog and poison doing its job. Another dashing movement followed by another cut to her shoulder, the armor sundering. Her only reprieve that it prevented the cut from being deeper. Strike after strike, her wing legs core and thighs. The mounting poison entering her body went to work.
"Feast"
The shard spoke through her with venom to pierce reality. As mounting torment and fear gripped the monster's mind she fought, only to feel herself already slipping. She was forced to hands and knees as the membranes of her wings were severed. Eventually, pure instinct began to take over, a low primal growl radiating from her core. She shook and quivered as the excruciating pain mounted, struggling with the fear in her mind. Another cut, this one across the back, opening her rips to the air.
The monster's visage began to radiate evil hatred as the crimson cloak of malice and death began to form around her. A low primordial growl emanated from her chest as she began to force back the pain and fear. As the relentless assault continued she started to use the wicked dagger to deflect what she could, allowing instinct to drive her actions. What membranes remained were intentionally sundered to present ten sharpened spears. Another cut, this one down her arm as she attempted to catch it. However, she was starting to watch it, taking untold punishment but getting ready to strike. Eventually, it would come.
"Die"
The beast rose from her knees to all fours, locking eyes with the host of divinity and watching his movements closely. The crimson orbs of hatred's disgust moved with him and anticipated his next attack. As it came she'd accept the blow willingly, locking every muscle she could against it's bite. It wouldn't stop it, but it'd give her a chance to strike back. That split second was all she needed as the wicked dagger would lash out in a wide arc, aiming to open up the gut and spill its contents. She'd lunge at her target if this worked and open the abyssal maw that was her core, revealing the several rows of sharpened teeth as she lunged at her target, aiming to take whatever she could in her gullet.
As dust kicked up stone and foot slammed against earth the monster noticed a change in the wind. Too late was her recognition as the vortex was formed. Her armored hide was bit and shredded, absorbing most of the damage she took. However, not everywhere was armored and scarlet blood was spilled into the ground below. Seeking escape she looked down and slammed her shoulder into the stones, cracking and sundering the earth. Frantically she began to move them from her path, absorbing dozens if not hundreds of bleeding wounds. However, her escape was to tunnel, and thus she did. She forced her way down into the earth before adjusting course once fifteen meters had been reached. Thankfully, the blaze would miss her, and hopefully provide cover as she began heading on her original path once more.

jutsu usedShow
Vorashu's Fury: Wrath
A - Tai (Disc)
Requires: Vorashu's Fury: Ire
This automatically triggers after sustaining a severe injury. Being struck by a significantly strong fire based attack can trigger this as well. Once Triggered Katsu loses the distinction between friend and foe, attacking nearly anything that she could see as a threat. If given a target she will tunnel on that target, ignoring any outside threat or command given to her. While in this state she becomes immune to fear and pain, becoming impossible to stop outside rendering her completely unable to fight through any means. Specific effects such as calming genjutsu can also resolve this.
Vorashu's Fury: Beast Sprint
D - Tai (Stance)
Katsu lowers to use her hands and feet in her basic movement. Doing so allows her greater handling at the upper levels of her speed, able to maneuver and stop much more quickly.
Vorashu's Fury: Lash Strike
D - Tai (Maneuver)
Katsu launches a simple slashing attack with any of her appendages. This strike is made in a wide arc to cover many angles of attack.
Vorashu's Fury: Scorpid's Sting
D - Tai (Maneuver)
Requires: Tail
Katsu coils the tail behind her back before lashing it out from either her hips or between her legs for a surprise stabbing attack.
Vorashu's Fury: Absorb and Counter
C - Tai (Maneuver)
Katsu will absorb an attack, locking her body to present a wall. Upon impact she will use the instant between attack and reset to follow up with an attack of her own, potentially catching her opponent off guard. She must be able to remain planted in order to counter strike.
Vorashu's Fury: Hunter's Mark
B - Tai (Disc)
Assuming Katsu can witness a target use a jutsu or attack she will remember the exact pattern of movement used. This allows her greater capability of responding to it should she perceive the same happening again making it extremely difficult to catch her with the same thing twice. The memory of any attack or pattern is permanent though it does not allow her to recreate it without practice.
Vorashu's Fury: Primal Aggression
A - Tai (Discipline)
When angered, threatened, or otherwise distressed Katsu releases a low primal growl from deep within her chest. This instinct is nearly impossible for her to manage without conscious effort. Any within earshot of this growl ([Endurance]/2 Meters) and hear it that have a [Willpower] less than her [Strength] will likely be cowed as primal fear races up their spine, making it difficult to do anything but defend themselves.
Vorashu's Fury: Predator's Gaze
A - Tai (Discipline)
Those who lock eyes with Katsu while in a combative state witness primal law at work. If the individual has less [Willpower] than her [Strength] or [Endurance] (Whichever is lower) it is likely they will be rendered panicked, unable to do anything but defend themselves or flee from her in terror.
Vorashu's Fury: Swordbreaker
S - Tai (Maneuver)
Should someone attack Katsu with a slashing or piercing attack she can lock her muscle around the attack. If the opponent doesn't have more strength than her the attack stops before it can do any more damage than a deep cut. If their strength is not equal or greater the weapon will be stuck in her body, unable to be retrieved. She may then break the weapon or projectile, or claim it as her own if she pleases.

Vorashu's Fury: Stone Glide
B - Tai (Stance)
Katsu can move through solid stone and earth at a -10 speed by physically moving it out of her way and closing the tunnel behind her. To move through Doton reinforced earth/stone Katsu would first need to be able to break it via any means.

In the aftermath.
There had been a time when Shinjiro had feared the beast before him. When he was a mere fourteen-year-old boy he had been afraid to engage her directly. But he had learned, recalled every obstacle she presented him with and in time each had been overcome. His swords were stronger, his body faster and more powerful and his poisons designed specifically to challenge those with enhanced healing and physical might. Now, the woman before him, fearsome as she may be, was simply a large slab of meat and she was his to carve as he saw fit. He had no knowledge that there was another form of her roaming the village but what he did know for certain was that the opponent that stood before him here and now would die. Each strike was swift and powerful, an extension of his own will and malice. This creature had attacked his home twice now, had made a personal vendetta to kill him and release the Genma within him. The one that had been stolen from her. But its powers were his now. And he would prove himself the dominant host, the superior weapon. Within, Vorashu watched eagerly and with much anticipation to witness these two alpha predators fight to the death. ‘You’ve grown. Guard dog of Kirigakure, your teeth are sharp. A frightened pup no longer. Show Beastia the might of her god. Let her bask in my power before meeting her end’ the old shaman decreed, his words a firm command. He respected the strength of his former host and the way she embraced his teachings. If she were to die, she deserved the respect of fighting without reservations.
Shinjiro considered the words, feeling his own bloodlust rise. He was trained to be a cold and ruthless assassin, but he couldn’t deny the animal impulses of Vorashu had seeped into his being. The power, the dominance and the vengeance were his to enjoy. He had spared Katsu not more than a few weeks prior, unknown to her. But she had the audacity to attack Kirigakure a second time. This time he wouldn’t leave anything left to regenerate, though his poison would prevent that for some time. Long enough to deal irreparable carnage. His cuts went deep, crippling her and spouting waves of blood that to any ordinary person would each be lethal within a matter of minutes or even seconds. And yet she persisted, even in the face of the agony and fear that wracked through her body, courtesy of his cursed blades. And the poison, nausea, weakening, anti-regeneration and even the onset of paralysis would each flow through her body. And yet against all odds she continued to fight.
The two beasts were communicating in the kind of way few could truly understand. Every cut, every dash he felt her will to live, her hatred and passion. And begrudgingly he realized that he was coming to respect her. Her wings severed, legs crippled and bleeding profusely, ribs exposed from a deep gash along her back and then moving onto her arms. And yet he wouldn’t let his guard down, not until he was certain she was dead. Vorashu was right, she deserved to be treated as a threat, a true monster worthy of his best until the absolute end. Her pained roars and defiant gaze only served to energize him further. His will and ferocity against hers. The sudden manifestation of a crimson cloak caused him a moment's hesitation. This was new, and there was no telling what it was capable of. Her dagger tail deflected one of his slashes while his other sword split her arm in two as she attempted a block. And then came her counterattack, perfectly timed it was the only chance she would get. His eyes widened as her body split in two but not of his doing, dangerous sharpened maw threatened to swallow him whole. His turtle-shell armor deflected the impact of the slash, and his aura of green lightning would complete the paralysis through his opponent’s body. This was her death thrall, a last-ditch effort to take him down with her. And he would allow it. “You’re already dead” he growled as the Genma’s chakra cloak enveloped him,his arms lengthened, his hair spilling out from his hood and twisting into braids. As her mouth enveloped him his lower spider arms would impale her from the inside out, no longer protected by her shell. His upper arms held his swords defensively, keeping a barrier between himself and her body. His head and legs retreated inside his shelled armor. His left arm reached up into her neck, his bladed nails aiming to impale her brain while his right hand shot for her heart, intending to impale it with his fingers and rip it away from the surrounding muscles and crush it beneath his grasp. He would cover his bases thoroughly. There was no escaping his wrath and vengeance. And for good measure, she would taste the power of Vorashu. Swallowing him had been her gravest mistake yet, even more so than her arrogance. From within her body, mostly protected by his own defenses he would suddenly transform, gaining incomparable strength and growing nearly instantly into a massive Sea turtle with such force that it would obliterate her entirely, spattering her remains against the walls of the Mizukage tower that would find its bottom floors similarly obliterated as if a massive bomb had been detonated.

And begrudgingly he realized that he was coming to respect her. Her wings severed, legs crippled and bleeding profusely, ribs exposed from a deep gash along her back and then moving onto her arms. And yet he wouldn’t let his guard down, not until he was certain she was dead. Vorashu was right, she deserved to be treated as a threat, a true monster worthy of his best until the absolute end. Her pained roars and defiant gaze only served to energize him further. His will and ferocity against hers. The sudden manifestation of a crimson cloak caused him a moment's hesitation. This was new, and there was no telling what it was capable of. Her dagger tail deflected one of his slashes while his other sword split her arm in two as she attempted a block. And then came her counterattack, perfectly timed it was the only chance she would get. His eyes widened as her body split in two but not of his doing, dangerous sharpened maw threatened to swallow him whole. His turtle-shell armor deflected the impact of the slash, and his aura of green lightning would complete the paralysis through his opponent’s body. This was her death thrall, a last-ditch effort to take him down with her. And he would allow it. “You’re already dead” he growled as the Genma’s chakra cloak enveloped him,his arms lengthened, his hair spilling out from his hood and twisting into braids. As her mouth enveloped him his lower spider arms would impale her from the inside out, no longer protected by her shell. His upper arms held his swords defensively, keeping a barrier between himself and her body. His head and legs retreated inside his shelled armor. His left arm reached up into her neck, his bladed nails aiming to impale her brain while his right hand shot for her heart, intending to impale it with his fingers and rip it away from the surrounding muscles and crush it beneath his grasp. He would cover his bases thoroughly. There was no escaping his wrath and vengeance. And for good measure, she would taste the power of Vorashu. Swallowing him had been her gravest mistake yet, even more so than her arrogance. From within her body, mostly protected by his own defenses he would suddenly transform, gaining incomparable strength and growing nearly instantly into a massive Sea turtle with such force that it would obliterate her entirely, spattering her remains against the walls of the Mizukage tower that would find its bottom floors similarly obliterated as if a massive bomb had been detonated.
Jutsu UsedShow
[Shinigami’s Kiss] (Four 250ml bottles)
A-Rank Coating Poison
A poison utilized by Shinjiro in order to render his victim's helpless, paralyzed from the neck down. In its original state this thick poison has a grey coloration though when infused in Shinjiro’s body it can be applied from any of his bodily fluids including his blood, saliva or sweat. Just a few drops introduced to the victim's system via entry though skin contact, blood stream or mucous membrane is enough for the poison to begin taking effect. It will begin as a slight tingling sensation in the area surrounding the entry point of the poison, before developing into full blown paresthesia of the entire body before the paralysis sets in. Once the paralysis is in place, it will prevent the victim from controlling their conscious motor functions. They will still be able to breath, their heart will continue to function as normal, but they will have no conscious control over their body. The only part not affected is their ability to move their eyes, slightly turn their head, and their ability to speak.
• Onset Time: 1 Post after Introduction
• Run Time: 5 Posts
• Effect: Full-Body Paralysis
[Touch of Mortality] (Four 250ml bottles)
S-Rank Coating Poison
This sticky dark red poison can be distributed across Shinjiro’s weapons, affecting the victim upon entering their bloodstream or a mucous membrane. Additionally, this poison can be infused into Shinji’s own blood and other bodily fluids such as saliva and sweat according to his Shinigami’s Curse ability. Once this poison had been introduced the victim will no longer benefit from Enhanced Stamina Regeneration or any Regeneration ability, only able to heal their wounds through direct IIjutsu techniques that will require 1 post longer than usual in order to take affect.
• Onset Time: 1 post
• Run Time: 7 Posts
• Effect: Nullifies Regeneration
Organ Harvester
A-Rank Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Deft Hands] [Medicine]
Utilizing immense speed, strength and precision the user is capable of thrusting one’s hand through another’s body so long as the user’s Strength is at least 10 higher than the opponents. This can be done to rip out an entire organ while keeping it intact, shatter an opponent’s rib-cage, sever a spine or simply run their hand entirely through the body of another causing catastrophic damage.
Form 3: Having gained more mastery over the Genma, the hosts sickly green aura will now hang close to their body, forming an incorporeal cloak around their body. The ashy color on their hands will extend further up their arms, and their wild hair will appear like a mane around their face. Most notably, their chakra will form a sort of mask around their face, though without visible features. In this form the host gains the ability to grant transformations and boosts to any animal they have spawned, as well as partial transformations to them, making chimeras.
Genbu
A-Ranked Kaerujutsu
Prerequisite: Form 2
Having entered the second form, Shinji can transform himself into an enormous black turtle. With a height of 25 meters, a width of 30 meters and a length of 35 meters the creature is truly a sight to behold. Short, wide blades line the back of the creature’s shell and similarly, its swimming arms are dense and sharp. In this form Shinji can move much more easily in the water than on land, traversing the seas and wreaking havoc. The mouth of the black turtle is beaked and dense enough to crush through stone and wood alike while being large enough to easily bite a man in half or swallow him whole. The durability of its shell is equal to Shinji’s Strength. In this form, Shinji gains +9 Strength, +6 Endurance.

In the aftermath.
The blast of lightning had barely grazed the pair of fleeing cowards, but Kasai simply smiled with a sinister grin that even revealed a sliver of his white teeth as the pair rapidly disappeared from sight into the mist and the swirling elements that he had been absorbing also faded returning his power level back to normal. Though it had been just a grazing below he knew for a fact that the blackened body of the woman on Aimi's back was without a doubt dead. It entertained the man to such a point that he let out a light laught at the situation as his eyes turned away from the battle between the two beasts that were Shinji and Katsu onto the other flying man off to his right side. "Kuku...." His laugh same to and end as both arms folded over one another and the swirling wind around him settled into a near invisible platform of wind beneath his feet for the time being. The trademark whisper like voice that belonged to Kiri's Black Reaper that sounded just like the angel of death called out to the young Konoha Bannin now, "Konoha kid, it is rude to interfere in a battle of men..."
His words were simply a gentle warning to the young shinobi that despite his status as a bannin was still just a young kid in front of the piercing yellow eyes that now peered over at him through the unbound locks of crimson hair. His scared face still making a smile at the man, who at least had the balls to attack someone with the strength of one of Kiri's former Bannin. But his words were to reaffirm that Kiri didn't need or want the help of Konoha in dealing with a matter that belonged to the village alone, he was sure that Yoru could understand the meaning behind his words. Silently though he was able to assess the man's skill just from his brief engagement and gave his approval that Konoha had sent a strong representative to talk about peace, this he approved of personally. Kasai knew that any man who had sacrificed so much to rescue someone only to lose them in this man had only one option...to let themselves be enveloped in pure hatred and that soon he would return where the two giants could finish this form themselves.
With his deadly voice still lingering in the mist his arms folded over one another as a dim layer of chakra still outlined the Mizukage's body as he controlled the air platform below his feet to ascend a few more meters allowing him a better view of the battlefield below where the mist had been blown away from Aimi's explosive entrance mere moments earlier. Excitement once more found its way onto the old man's scarred face as he watched the Kiri Genma face off against the former owner of the same genma, what an interesting clash and one that he couldn't pull his eyes away. He would not lift a finger to help the genma as this was a fight much like his own against another powerful opponent...it was kill or be killed. Only after one of them was dead would he make any actions but, in the end, he was surprised by the fighting prowess and tactics demonstrated by the young Shinji. He couldn't help but recall just before he became Mizukage one of their interactions where he had trapped the genma in aa orb of air in one of his transformed states, the defiance and pride that he demonstrated that day. To think that young boy had grown so much, but five years of war would force anyone to grow, or the only other option was to be killed by the enemy. 'Not bad, kid...'
Even still the old man found some pride in his village seeing the power of the younger generation that would one day be the ones to take over the care of his homeland and birthplace. Shaking his head, the man turned his gaze back out towards the direction that the Kiri missing-nin had flown off in and simply smiled as he awaited the anticipated return of Aimi. This battle would most certainly echo into the other villages as he planned to finish of this nuisance one and for all..."Come back, little Aimi-kun."

In the aftermath.
Aimi, Yoru & Kasai
Yoru’s feathers hit through the air, hearing every strike with the air he heard Kasai’s voice ring out addressing him directly. The magantism of this wan was immense, it was clear he was a true Mizukage. It made Yoru feel like a small boy in comparison.
He would respect Kasai’s wishes and nod to him “As you wish, Lord Mizukage!” He flapped his wings and flew around behind Aimi around 100 metres back from him. Kirigakure was clear in his sight, he could watch the pair and wouldn’t interrupt, least not for now.
He forced sage chakra through his body as feathers covered him from head to toe covering him in a protective layer of feathers incase anything flew his way. Once Aimi finished up, Yoru would like to speak to him so it seemed ideal to wait, he truly hoped Aimi wasn’t planning anything foolish he could just run now.
Katsu, Yoru and Nishki
The clone of Yoru stood in front of the barrier ready to meet Katsu as she hurtled forward, he was shocked that Aimi and Katsu we’re even here and so openly stealing. At least wear a mask a minimum, to put yourself in such unnecessary danger seemed foolish. Though perhaps the pair would get out safely. Though his eye had revealed the other Katsu fighting Shinji and that didn’t seem to be going well. He needed to talk to her and talk to her fast.
He watched lower into the ground, he quickly weaved a flurry of hand seals as he leaped downwards water engulfing him and the ration armour surged through the water amplifying it even more. Katsu was travelling much slower due to the technique she was using and he’d meet her whilst she was underground, hopefully striking her with both suiton and ration before she could even pop back up from the depths below.
If he managed to knock her back, the ration would paralyse long enough for him to speak to her in private, the pair would be alone in the tunnel “You’re a fool Katsu.” He’d say, just low enough so that only they could hear “You’ve put more than yourself at risk doing this!” he barked lowly.

In the aftermath.
Nishiki looked with a bit of a grin as it seemed the combination attack had captured the crazed beast of a monster but it soon lowered as he felt her pounding into the ground as vibrations reverberated up to him, which would not normally be something one would pick up if not for his Tsukino lineage and in turn caused him to come down and try to glance a look as he thought of what to do next.
"Drat, she's trying to escape underground if I'm not mistaken" he called out.
"Indeed..." the sensor girl answered in return, her voice sounding tired and strained as she then wanted to add more but couldn't seem to do so before the unknown entered the fray and seemed to charge down underground to give chase.
"Well at least it seems we have help, tch" commented Karen as she paused her writing, trying to hold back her jutsu in hopes that Katsu would be pushed back out in the open were she might be sealed and bound.
With that the pink haired jounin came down to the ground and hoped to prepare himself as he focused on both bodies that surged into the ground, aiming to prepare to strike wherever the beast next emerged as he as glided low with as much speed as he could to keep up as a glow of magenta channelling appeared.
After a moment a large electrical pauldron of sorts formed at Nishiki's right shoulder with a long spear of lightning flowing along his arm as he focused on what might be happening underground.
================================================================================================================================
Meanwhile one of the chuunin sent out earlier to scout for help finally made it a safe distance within the kage tower, having shakily stepped forwards with the grand fight happening before them when things seemed to settle enough for them to enter emerge.
"Help! Help! Crazy beast monster at the academy!" the boy called out towards whoever could hear or could even part from the fight with Aimi and the second Katsu... Or was it the first? They couldn't know but they did know a similar looking beast was also assaulting one of the academies and that Nishiki had sent out a request for aid that now felt so long ago.

In the aftermath.
The arrival of the invader came just as suddenly as it was explosive. Mere seconds after releasing his mother to the lake of napalm Aimi was back at the site of the Mizukage tower with a sonic boom that shattered whatever windows remained intact over the immediate area, covering the tower, the buildings surrounding it that had previously been ruptured by his explosions and were not set ablaze, creating a new rain of glass and beyond as well as banishing the mist that surrounded the tower for a hundred meters in every direction. Aimi faced Kasai in the air, wings beating furiously, eyes and mouth set ablaze in his anger - an act performed not on purpose but from the raw exertion of his katon chakra venting itself from his body - and what was more, something new. Something that had never been seen by anyone in Kirigakrue before. Something green.
Aimi's file as a shinobi had been burned by Kasai on the day he granted him permission to leave the village and go out into the world to get stronger. Had it still remained for reference, it still would have been useless in explaining what it was that Kasai and those around were witnessing. A green mist-like substance was wafting off of Aimi's body, rising up into the sky from his bare torso and head, forming a narrow stream that this green vapor swam up to reach the sky above. With some of the last rational thought that he possessed, Aimi knew that he would have to go into this fight holding nothing back, pulling no punches and using everything he had at his disposal. Where once before he had fought against Kasai years prior and held back the existence of his Napalm release, this fight now necessitated it. None of them were likely to notice the green cloud that was forming up above slowly but surely due to the spectacle of violence that Aimi was about to put on.
Chest rising and falling with each quick, heavy breath the rogue Kaguya took in, fire leaping from his mouth in time with his breath, Aimi's blazing eyes were locked on Kasai, standing there in the air, so smug and proud. With a huge breath he would let out a fiery roar that would make his intentions absolutely plain in it's simplicity:
The raw, visceral, fiery wrath in his voice would undoubtedly be enough to send chills down the spine of anyone who heard it, though perhaps for slightly different reasons. He had never been this angry before and it was possible that none of them had ever seen a man so full of wrath and hate in their lives. His very being practically vibrated with the raw anger he was feeling! His roar would be the only war cry he gave before acting.
Pushing two identical bones out from his shoulders, Aimi would reach up and wrench them from his flesh before channeling his chakra, setting one a light with fire that danced and jittered wildly, mirroring his fury, while the other would ooze a strange green gel, covering the meter long blade of bone in what could easily be described as slime, the same color as the mist rising from his body. Weapons drawn and coated for battle, Aimi would beat his wings and be gone from the spot he had been hovering in with yet another sonic boom, racing forward to charge directly as the Reaper of Kirigakure, the Mizukage!
he would roar once more as he approached, the sound of his voice reaching the onlookers after he had already made his move! Stopping in the air just a few meters short of where Kasai actually was, Aimi would rear his arm back and swing it wide as though to strike the Mizukage from so far away with his gel-covered blade of bone - only to send a wave of said gel straight for the man! The moment he swung his sword he would be gone again, flitting to a location above the Reaper and sending another swing of his green gel down towards him before once more vanishing from where he was and sending a third sling of napalm towards his foe!
Furious as Aimi was, he was by no means made stupid by his anger. He was focused, efficient, deadly: he was exactly the man that Kirigakure had always wanted him to be. Despite only having perhaps a quarter of his chakra at his disposal, Aimi's anger was giving him such a laser focus on what he wanted to do that it hardly mattered. This fight, his goal, would be over and achieved in a matter of moments, and after that he would leave this place forever more. The goal in question though? Now that he had the scrolls and equipment that he had come here for but was bereft of his parents as he had wished? Simple.
Murder the Mizukage, and anyone else that stood in his way.

A green mist-like substance was wafting off of Aimi's body, rising up into the sky from his bare torso and head, forming a narrow stream that this green vapor swam up to reach the sky above. With some of the last rational thought that he possessed, Aimi knew that he would have to go into this fight holding nothing back, pulling no punches and using everything he had at his disposal. Where once before he had fought against Kasai years prior and held back the existence of his Napalm release, this fight now necessitated it. None of them were likely to notice the green cloud that was forming up above slowly but surely due to the spectacle of violence that Aimi was about to put on.
Chest rising and falling with each quick, heavy breath the rogue Kaguya took in, fire leaping from his mouth in time with his breath, Aimi's blazing eyes were locked on Kasai, standing there in the air, so smug and proud. With a huge breath he would let out a fiery roar that would make his intentions absolutely plain in it's simplicity:
The raw, visceral, fiery wrath in his voice would undoubtedly be enough to send chills down the spine of anyone who heard it, though perhaps for slightly different reasons. He had never been this angry before and it was possible that none of them had ever seen a man so full of wrath and hate in their lives. His very being practically vibrated with the raw anger he was feeling! His roar would be the only war cry he gave before acting.Pushing two identical bones out from his shoulders, Aimi would reach up and wrench them from his flesh before channeling his chakra, setting one a light with fire that danced and jittered wildly, mirroring his fury, while the other would ooze a strange green gel, covering the meter long blade of bone in what could easily be described as slime, the same color as the mist rising from his body. Weapons drawn and coated for battle, Aimi would beat his wings and be gone from the spot he had been hovering in with yet another sonic boom, racing forward to charge directly as the Reaper of Kirigakure, the Mizukage!
he would roar once more as he approached, the sound of his voice reaching the onlookers after he had already made his move! Stopping in the air just a few meters short of where Kasai actually was, Aimi would rear his arm back and swing it wide as though to strike the Mizukage from so far away with his gel-covered blade of bone - only to send a wave of said gel straight for the man! The moment he swung his sword he would be gone again, flitting to a location above the Reaper and sending another swing of his green gel down towards him before once more vanishing from where he was and sending a third sling of napalm towards his foe!Furious as Aimi was, he was by no means made stupid by his anger. He was focused, efficient, deadly: he was exactly the man that Kirigakure had always wanted him to be. Despite only having perhaps a quarter of his chakra at his disposal, Aimi's anger was giving him such a laser focus on what he wanted to do that it hardly mattered. This fight, his goal, would be over and achieved in a matter of moments, and after that he would leave this place forever more. The goal in question though? Now that he had the scrolls and equipment that he had come here for but was bereft of his parents as he had wished? Simple.
Murder the Mizukage, and anyone else that stood in his way.
Jutsu UsedShow
Katon • Fire Coming Out of the Monkey's Head
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user channels their katon chakra into their eyes and mouth, setting both ablaze. This fire rages for a total of 5 posts, causing no burns to the user nor impairing their ability to speak or see. This jutsu does little aside from act as an intimidating display for the user’s foes.
[Napalm • Napalm Rain]
S-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user channels Napalm chakra and creates a green 'mist' from their body which climbs skyward, gradually forming green napalm clouds over the course of 5 posts. During these 5 posts, the napalm clouds will spread over an area of 80 meters. After the 5 posts have passed, it will begin to rain napalm over the projected area and continue to rain for 5 posts. This napalm falls and burns with [Strength] and [Speed] equal to the users' [Control]. At the user's discretion, or until the napalm comes into contact with a source of ignition, the user may Kai to cause the napalm to burst into flame, burning the opponent or any organic material with napalm-fueled flames. The user must be within 80 meters of the napalm to do this. The flames remain for seven posts before the fuel is used up or until otherwise extinguished.
Used to create 2 one meter long swords of bone:
Death Bone Pulse • Dance of the Camellia
B-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: Death Bone Pulse • Dance of the Willows, 35 Speed
The user will ossify bone in their arm, pushing the bone out of their shoulder and creating a short, 1 meter long 'sword' of bone. The sword has strength equal to the users’ [Strength]. The user rushes towards the opponent with bone in hand and thrusts it at them repeatedly, their arm moving so fast that it appears as a blur. The user's arm is impossible to track unless the opponents' [Speed] is greater than or equal to the users’ [Speed]. To use this technique effectively, the user must keep up the pressure on the opponent, continually attacking them with the eventual outcome that the opponent leaves an opening in their defenses that the user can strike at.
Katon • Wildfire
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: *Katon • Heated Blade
After the user has set their blade aflame using the Katon • Heated Blade ninjutsu, the user again channels katon chakra; this time in the flames themselves, causing the flames to jump about on the weapon wildly. Afterward, every strike of the user's blade will cause flames to jump and fly from the blade, spreading the fire about and causing environmental damage. The flames can leap out away from the sword equal to a distance of 1/2 the user's Strength and similarly moves at 1/2 the user's Strength
[Napalm • Hellish Weapon]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user channel Napalm chakra into their held weapon, coating it in a thick layer of gelatinous napalm. The imbued weapon will be able to sling napalm with every swing up to a distance equal to the user's Strength in meters. However, any cutting power the weapon might have will be greatly reduced by the gel, resulting in a -1 Strength debuff with every strike. At the user's discretion, or until the napalm comes into contact with a source of ignition, the user may Kai to cause the napalm to burst into flame, burning the opponent or any organic material with napalm-fueled flames. The flames remain for four posts before the fuel is used up or until otherwise extinguished.

In the aftermath.
Rage incarnate had lashed out and made a fatal mistake. The beast's fangs dug into hardened armor and the electric reprisal had made her end spelled in blood. Desperately fighting against the paralytic effect the spiteful monster let out a final howl of rage and malice, releasing a desperate gurgling sound from deep within the mouth of her core. Bile and acid spewed forth in a last ditch effort at some kind of wound, knowing her death was immediate. However, if she was to die here, so would this cage for a god. With her final spite released, the bladed nails dug into her armored chin, she locked her muscle around it with the last of her strength. There was only time for one last thing, and she wanted to instill as much hatred and fear as she could before the overwhelming rage and was snuffed into death.
"You'll see me again, Vorashu."
As the final word was spoken her strength began to fade and Shinjiro's hateful talons sunk deep into her jaw, passed her maw, and into the brain that sustained her through death. In this moment, a monster had been slain.
Katsu moved through the earth and tunneled towards the kage tower, unknowingly directly into the path of an old friendemy. Without any way of knowing what the hell was coming towards her she slammed hard into the liquid drill wreathed in electric power. The impact forced her against the wall as she growled in surprised anger. However, the damage was thankfully minimal. What was more upsetting was the fact her entire body was locking up as the voltage coursed through her. The voice took the frustration at this turn of events, and turned it into confusion, then pure rage.
"Yoru you fucking traitorous bastard the fuck is fire doing helping these pricks!?!?

In the aftermath.
Yoru, Katsu & Nishki
The water cyclone hit it’s mark, the electricity ripping through it licked and nipped at her skin paralysing her entire body. The clone glared at the woman, his single hazel eye hovering over her as he dispelled the cyclone of water his entire body still covered in the ration of armour. Scoffing at her foolish words, calling him a traitor “You’re a fool Katsu.” He spat, his words filled venom.
How could she be so foolish to do such a thing? Kirigakure would not take this laying down, if Katsu survived, they’d come after her, send the head hunter division and they’d need to come straight through the fire country.
It was too dangerous to keep her alive that was for sure, but she was a formidable ally to have. He stepped forward inside the new make shift tunnel, her side had closed up behind her but there was still an entrance way on the side he had created. Withdrawing a kunai, he gently stroked it across her neck the electricity coursing through him and the weapon biting at her skin once again. He pushed it, just firm enough to make her aware he could kill her at any moment.
His eye looked deep into hers, the fearsome monster known as Katsu seemed so vulnerable. He sighed shaking his head as he moved the kunai and stabbed it into her arm, the electricity would make it numb so she wouldn’t feel any pain and he was confident from what little info he had on her she’d be able to grow it back “Do as I say.” He whispered softly in her ear; clear he had a plan to get her out this sticky situation as he continued to cut through her giant bicep attempting to separate the entire arm from her body. He’d need to be quick; Kiri shinobi would be on them soon enough.
Yoru glared over the battlefield, the crown rang Aimi’s thoughts through his mind they we’re filled with nothing but aggression and hatred. It was clear he intended to kill the Mizukage and if that happened it would cause unending issues for Yoru and the fire country. It would lead to war for sure, a war Yoru did not want.
He’d need to put a stop to this and fast.
Yoru filled his body with sage chakra, allowing the natural energy to flow through him, his skin turned an even paler shade of white, feathers sprouted over his body, his eye turned black as liquid soon followed pouring down his cheeks.
The Demon of Konoha was no longer here to spectate, he was here to put an end to this foolishness.
Slamming his hands together, he weaved a flurry of hand seals as a large barrier taking on the shape of a dome they was 160x160 around Aimi, Yoru and The Mizukage trapping them inside. This was mostly to protect anyone on the outside. It was a two way barrier meaning that people could enter but not leave.
Secondly he weaved another set of seals, as his voice rang out in a high tenor note that echoed through the barrier filling it with his song
“What’s the life of a man, any more than the leaves.
A man has his seasons so why should we grieve?
Although though this life, we’ll appear just today.
Like a leaf we must wither, and soon fade away.”
Anyone that heard a single note of his song would begin to feel at ease, finding themselves at peace until they finally fell into a deep sleep.

In the aftermath.
Kasai dismissed the Konoha-nin interference for now, feeling the actual need to focus on the return of the young man as he came rushing back just like the old monster had predicted in his mind that Aimi would. 'Foolish kid...' As the rage driven shinobi made his return the old man simply lifted one hand into the sky as a dense chakra flowed off his own body, one filled with power and murder as it seemed the Kage was truly ready to fight to the death with his former village member. Though the ego of a man who had killed and murdered for several decades would not all for himself to see this man as an equal but more of a small stepping stone along his path in life, one where he built a mountain of corpses and a filled a river with blood. Perhaps in this so-called new age of peace there wasn't a place for a man with such a mentality, but Kasai would continue to live his life the same way until someone stronger than him was able to stop him, he would continue to push his village to ensure its strength was unmatchable by the other three who opposed it...even its ally in Iwa.
Today he would kill this man as the very air just above the Mizukage began to visibly tremble as the flame cloaked man arrived back to end this little escapade as the elemental master began to draw upon the hidden power within the elements himself, something he couldn't do for long or many times at that, but he still wouldn't openly admit to the strength of the ex-Kiri bannin before him. Though the interesting green katon chakra that was being excreted from the shinobi's body Kasai only began to openly laugh as Aimi called out his name with such rage, "Kukuku..." He didn't have to utter a word back as the fighter would come for to him with all his rage and fury, ready to fight like a true man for the first time, with something actual there to drive the depths of his strength. It was just too bad that the man had in the end decided to bring such strength that Kiri shinobi were recognized for against his homeland...there was no way for Kasai to fight the man and not kill him because of that. Such a weapon would have to be broken and tossed in the trash...hopefully whatever trump card he brought to fight with would at the very least bring some entertainment to the old man.
Though the Konoha-nin butting in once more with the formation of this 'protective' barrier that span out over a hundred meters with the outward appearance to be a protector was a true insult to the pride of Kasai and the motto of strength above all. If one died during this, even from the bystander point it meant they were too weak to even watch. Strength is everything within the Hidden Mist, only the strong survive in the end as the weak are trampled under the victor's very feet. But it wasn't enough for the man to pay mind until a strange and unwelcome sensation of relaxing overcame the man who hadn't even tuned into the noise in the surrounding that was coming from the singing of the Konoha Bannin due to the other sounds in the environment. This was certainly out of the norm and without another thought the man realized something was a miss as his emotions were always in check due to the dullness that he experienced through the elemental body of his, he then surged chakra throughout his body towards his core as it was then reflected out breaking him from this strange sensation via 'Kai. The old shinobi didn't have time track the sourse but already understood who the main culprit could have been as the half naked flaming man was ready to pounce him in his fit of rage...
As Aimi screamed for him to 'die', one bone sword lit with fire and the other covered in a unique green ooze but to someone who didn't feel pain the old man could care less what the figure did to either of his swords, few understood his multielement body that was the source of his power and connection to the very elements. The right hand clenched tightly closed as his multi-colored chakra flowed outwards as he did not set still and just let his opponent attack him and instead pushed forwards meeting him on his first blow, His right first, cloaked in what appeared to be a dark glove rained down as Aimi slash which launched the green ooze from the blade towards Kasai happened. From above a twelve-meter fist of swirling violent futon chakra rained down in conjunction with the right cross thrown at the Kasai, the man with his elemental body easily willing to trade blow for blow with the tanky bone man.
It hadn't had the full time to develop into the raging wind sword it would soon be but the circulating fist, if it impacted would drive the fighting down with great strength straight down into the very earth itself for several meters as the winds inside cut at the man's body as it transformed into a full out swirling sword of deadly winds that threatened to completely devour the Kaguya. At the same time Kasai's left half was impacted on his arm, stomach, and leg from the green ooze that pushed his body back slightly but no true injury besides feeling the blunt force trauma from the blow was dealt at this time.

In the aftermath.
Shinjiro’s eyes widened as he heard the gurgling sounds building up around him, though he didn’t hesitate for a moment, crushing the woman’s heart and impaling her brain simultaneously with his clawed hands. And then he transformed. A massive sea turtle that sent blood and chunks of flesh flying in all directions even as acid washed over his several-meter-thick shell. The sheer force of the sudden expansion sent most of the acid flying in all directions, spattering against the collapsing building. Between the acid and the immense size of his new form, the foundations of the Kage tower had been completely decimated. Rubble landed on him, soaking up much of the acid and slowly Shinjiro moved, shrugging the upper portion of the building off of his massive, shelled back. The tower would collapse and between his poisonous gas, the acid and the collapsing of several floors it was highly unlikely anybody would have survived had they not evacuated when Katsu had first entered.
Glowing green with chakra after emerging from the rubble, Shinjiro transformed again, back to his human form. His hands had suffered some acid burns, though he had trained to push through such pain and in time his body would heal itself. Whatever acid had been on his shell was gone now with the transformation but so too was his shelled armor and extra appendages. That was the most inconvenient thing about switching between forms, though it wasn’t particularly strenuous to manifest them again. He would whistle briefly to release his arrow from its holster and then remove his swords before transforming into a large grizzly bear. Next his spider arms would form again, taking hold of his swords. Then he would enter a Zantou stance. As much as Katsu’s lasts words bothered him, this fight wasn’t over yet. Aimi was still in the village. He could see a large barrier had been formed and there were flashes of fire but at the current distance it was hard to make out details. “Is she really dead?” he wondered aloud to himself, reflecting on the battle. All those years she had hunted him, told him when he was just a boy that one day she would kill him. Was it over? It seemed unlikely, she was too confident. With her abilities of regeneration it wasn’t impossible that there was another part of her somewhere. ‘Beastia may yet live, though it is clear on this day you are alpha. Well fought’ Vorashu praised, in a rare display of respect for Shinjiro’s strength and ferocity. ‘Display your victory for all to see’ the Phantom beast encouraged.
Shinjiro would look over the rubble briefly and recover the woman’s head, impaling it with one of his lower spider legs for good measure. He was curious how Aimi would react, if he even cared at all. Wings would sprout from his back and another armored shell would encase him. His right lower spider leg would clench the legendary arrow, ready to put it to use at moments notice but for the time being he didn’t need to waste chakra flying it around. Taking a few deep breath’s, he centered his focus. Only one more S-rank threat and then Kirigakure would be able to recover its pride. The boon of Vorashu still flowed strongly through him. His power was immense and one way or another he would personally see to it that Aimi didn’t escape the village alive.
Ascending he soared through the sky with powerful flaps of his wings, moving swiftly and silently. He had been too far away to hear Yoru’s song and even now his hearing was still strained from the repeated shouts and explosions. As he got closer to the combatants, he could make out that the Mizukage was fighting against Aimi. Shinjiro would move to the opposite side of where he saw Yoru flying, still staying on the outside of the barrier for the moment. If Aimi attempted to flee he would have no escape, but for the moment he was willing to let him fight the Mizukage. Though if he did succumb to Yoru’s Genjutsu Shinjiro would happily finish him off if nobody else did.

Jutsu UsedShow
Eight-Legged Freak
B-Ranked Partial Kaerujutsu
Channeling chakra through his body, Shinjiro will grow thick bristly spider hairs from every part of his skin, each hair follicle is wiry and thin enough to prick skin on contact, releasing his sweat into their body through many glands. In addition, Shinjiro will develop a set of sharp mandibles from his mouth capable of injecting venom as well as grow four spider arms from his torso, each growing up to 5 meters in length and retaining his full strength and speed. These spider arms are able to grab things in their pincer grips, scale walls with ease and even wield weaponry.
Grizzly Bear
B-Ranked Kaerujutsu
Prerequisite: Form 2
Once in at least the second form, Shinji can transform himself into a large grizzly bear. In this form he stands up to 5 meters tall on his hind legs or 3 meters at the shoulder when on all fours and Weighs in at just over 700kg. This transformation grants Shinji +10 Strength, +5 Speed.
Armored
C-Ranked Partial Kaerujutsu
This transformation allows Shinjiro to manifest a black turtle-like shell around his torso, protecting his stomach, chest, back, and even his shoulders, thighs, and neck. This shell acts much like a suit of armor although it is physically a part of him, bonding with his skin, manifesting beneath the swords worn on his back. He can even retract his limbs and head into the fleshy space inside the shell. The strength of the shell is equal to that of Shinjiro’s Strength.
Assassins Flight
A-Ranked Partial Kaerujutsu
This transformation allows Shinji to grow a pair of large bat wings from his upper back. Each wing is 3 meters long and 1.5 meters wide and typically brown or black in color. These wings are fully functional allowing Shinji flight capabilities. As an extension of his body Shinji has learned how to fly and move as swiftly and silently as he normally would.
*[Zantou • Winter Maelstrom]
A-Rank Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite(s): *[Zantou • Winter Blizzard].
Building upon its parent technique, this Stance further builds upon further sharpening and refining the practitioner's capacity to focus on the opponent and the task at hand. Drawing in a deep breath, the practitioner also gathers up their energy and releases a kiai. The level of skill the practitioner has attained allows the practitioner to effectively attack and block from a neutral stance without any detriment. While in this Stance, the practitioner can effortlessly ignore non-critical distractions, focusing solely on the opponent(s). They also are able to ignore extreme heat, extreme cold, moderate oxygen deprivation, extreme fatigue, and even extreme pain. They can read the opponents' muscle contractions and body positioning very accurately in this stance, and they are able to read the direction, the type, the timing, and the speed of an attack that is imminent. The opponent can still effectively mask their movements if they have a movement-concealing Stealth technique of equal or higher rank than this technique. While in this Stance, the practitioner is conferred with a +4 increase to Strength and Will Power but suffers a -4 penalty to Chakra Pool and Control. The practitioner may end this Stance whenever they so wish.

In the aftermath.
It was stupid for Aimi Kaguya to charge in blindly like that, but how could he have known what was waiting for him? In his blind fury he was only able to see the reason for his mother's demise, for his father's death. His hateful wrath gave him tunnel vision to all else, and it would cost him. He was not entirely without his thoughts, though. As he flew forward, swords of bone in hand, coated in their respective elements, he remembered the fight he had with Kasai back in the tournament in a country he could not recall the name of in the moment. He remembered how he had held his own against the Mizukage back then, how he debated revealing his napalm then and there but ultimately decided against it. Though it was only a tournament bout where death was to be avoided, he couldn't help but wonder in the instants before it all happened; if he had used napalm then, would he have had the upper hand?
It was this thought that had driven him to use it now, not not hold back and to come at Kasai with every bit of lethal intent he could muster. He did not care who knew of his invented element now - only that he could use it to end the miserable life of the Mizukage.
Had he not been so overwhelmed with anger, had he been more observant of his surroundings and waited for Kasai to strike first as he inevitably would, had he done any number of things rather than charge directly forward, what followed could have been avoided.
It all happened quickly.
As he rushed forward through the air he did not notice the barrier being placed around him and the immediate area. His eyes caught the sight of the chakra solidifying in the distance but his mind was unable to comprehend what it was he was seeing: He was too focused on revenge. As he drew his arm back and prepared to strike with the intent of setting Kasai up for failure as he had done in that tournament years ago, the song reached his ears. Instantly his eyes began to blur. His mind grew foggy once more but now with the fog of sleep and the sensation of relaxation washed over him, just as he began to swing his sword and send his napalm at the Reaper of Kirigakure. This instantaneous and ephemeral lapse in mental and physical concentration was enough to give the Mizukage an opening.
As Aimi flung his arm forward and swiped through the air, sending a wave of sticky napalm that collided with the left side of the Mizukage with enough blunt force that it could have shattered bone in a normal man and sent anyone off balance and fumbling backwards, Kasai had prepared a kiss of wind to come crashing down atop of Aimi and send him plummeting towards the ground below.
The impact was fierce and sudden, so much so that Aimi's blurred vision was unable to capture the precise moment that he was staring at Kasai and then at the earth around him as he was sent plummeting to the street below. His body collided and dug deep into the ground as he was pushed by the Reaper's cutting winds. His wings were broken. His flesh torn and ripped into dozens of times over, digging into muscle down to the bone for so full of despair and anger was he that he had not thought to defend his tissue with armor. The impact with the ground broke his spine and crushed many of his organs. The rogue Kaguya was left in a pit several meters deep, bleeding externally and internally, paralyzed from the waist down, skin turn and battered asunder. Any sort of bodily damage one could suffer just short of death from such an injury, Aimi had suffered it.
His eyes and mouth still blazed with fire as he screamed out in agony for no one in particular to hear. His swords were not with him, left up on the ground above still burning and oozing respectively. The dirt and dust kicked up from his impact shrouded him from view for the moment, but all would be able to hear his gurgled cry of pain. As he lay there, body broken for the moment, the only saving grace that could be said to be in this situation that he could not even fully appreciate was that the genjutsu he had been under was now broken.
Seething in hatred and trauma, head now clear, he had enough time to mentally berate himself for being so stupid and assess the sort of damage that had been done to him. As a medical ninja with extensive understanding of how the human body worked and a life time of experience suffering anguish from many forms, he could proudly state to no one that the prognosis he now suffered was: Not good. He didn't need to know exactly what was wrong with him to know that he needed time to heal, to recuperate, to plan. The amount of damage he had suffered though would not allow for such time. Though his body was already at work to repair itself, in the speed of battle it would not be fast enough. He had no choice.
Focusing as little of his effort as he could, Aimi willed his spine to get back into place so as to fix the worst of the damage right away. After this one dull snap, however, he had to act fast. Focusing his chakra, he would course iijutsu through his body to mask his vital signs, slow his heart rate, stop his breathing, stop as much bodily function as was possible while still keeping himself alive. No one above him had seen his body so extensively damaged before - not even Shinjiro who had once gone all out and sliced him in as many ribbons as he could. Hopefully, with the addition of masking his vitals, the ruse would prove realistic enough. After doing this, Aimi would take one last shaky, wet breath, close his eyes and mouth, and fall into a trance-like state, closing out the entire world around him as he put his body to work on one singular task; repairing itself.
For the moment, to anyone observing, closely or otherwise, Aimi Kaguya would appear to be dead.
All the same, that green mist would continue to rise off of his corpse and into the sky...

In the aftermath.
Nishiki wasn't fond of the idea of going underground to give chase but the other large signature seemed to go under to block off the beast and there wasn't any immediate signs of her returning to the surface, as such the young near bannin moved to follow suit and swooped across the land.
"I'm going in, prepare for any re-emergence!" he called out to everyone who began to take up positions as they put on their brave faces in order to face the strange monster.
"Tch, show off" muttered Karen to herself before retorting in full "Don't die and try and force that creature back here were I can seal it away!" she demanded.
Nishiki tutted in return but gave a nod as he dove into the unknown's hole, unable to reach the beast's as it collapsed in behind.
The foxkin followed in persuit with great alertness as he tried to take in everything and even heard the beastial tones of the monster call out to Yoru, confirming who the unknown was and putting some potential ease into the matter and in fact as he dropped down he saw said man seemingly slashing right into the genma reject.
Nishiki grinned with some pleasure over what he witnessed and took it as an opportunity to take immediate action of his own, launching his lightning lance down the tunnel and at the one he believed to be Katsu as it seemed his temporary comrade had a good grasp of her.
"So you're the Konoha diplomat or whatever then" the pink haired man commented in a somewhat coy manner as he made his appearance and launched the spear.
"Well, at least you're proving useful. Hopefully our joint attack should have her pinned down for sure" he added as the crackling lightning whirred ahead and he cautiously began to step forwards.
Then with each step a glow of magenta channelling flowed around as chakra seeped all around the tunnel and filled the earth itself, the basic genma host not wanting to hold anything back and hoping to create a more capable arena for himself as he stopped not too far from the two just in case Katsu could still lunge forwards as he didn't want to get into a physical fight.
The young chuunin felt foolish for even trying to call out for help near the Kage tower as her eyes watched on with fear, her legs shaking as she tried to be as close as possible to get some notice but completely out of the way.
It was after all a tremendously overwhelming scene and utmost dangerous battleground way beyond their level, yet they couldn't let down Nishiki and Karen nor give up on their orders but they sure believed the others out looking for help would definitely have a better job like maybe they ran into Shiv or something... Wait... Was that better? He was a crazy drunk so maybe not...

In the aftermath.
Nishiki, Yoru and Katsu
Yoru’s byakugan thumped in its socket as he peered through Katsu’s body, her true core inside. He heard Nishiki or who he assumed was Nishiki. Either way it was going to ruin his plan he moved in close the electricity coursing over his skin, his lips close to her ear as he whispered gently “Move it to your arm and I’ll take you with me.” Assuming she did as he requested, and her core was in the arm he’d lop it off with ease.
If she did as she said, the core would now be safe with Yoru in the arm or perhaps not. That was entirely up to her and he’d done his part now. Katsu was an ally, but a foolish one none the less. If she survived this he’d make sure to use her down the line she’d owe him a favour that was for sure. Though if she died, she died and that would be the end of it. At least he wouldn’t have Kiri shinobi knocking on his door attempting to get to river.
Aimi and Katsu had proved themselves both to be fools, putting everything and everyone at risk.
He peered over his shoulder for a moment as the Genma seemed well prepared, ready to attack but it was clear he had no killing intent surely he’d of finished off Katsu the second he saw her if that was the case.
Another weak Genma, just like his own village. He was disgusted at the thought of someone having such a powerful weapon inside them and doing nothing with it.
“Diplomat? Have you forgot who I am Nishiki? I do hope your wounds have healed since the tournament.” Yoru had defeated the young man quite handily, so he knew he wouldn’t be much threat to him now or at least he hoped but he would make sure to keep his arms on both Katsu’s body incase her core wasn’t in the arm and on the young Genma all at the same time, even though a clone and at no real risk, it was better to keep his eye.
The clone laughed loudly “Joint attack? If I hadn’t of turned up Katsu here would of ripped you to shreds, you can run home now boy, I’m sure your mother has dinner ready for you.” He scoffed, his paralysis would be over soon and what would happen next Yoru had no idea, but it likely wasn’t going to be pretty.
Yoru watched Aimi was interest as he screamed out in agony, he was confused what had actually happened it was all so messy and all so quickly, but Aimi landed in a clump on the floor before.
Was he dead, was that all the Daimyo of Gold have to offer?
It seemed unlikely, but quite possible none the less. Yoru had seen people come back from much worse, Nehan had placed her body back together, he’d seen shinobi grow limbs as if they we’re made of thin air. Death was never an absolute, least not in Yoru’s experience.
“Is he dead?!” he yelled out loudly to the Mizukage, Yoru needed to find out for himself though as withdrew a kunai, it was gold in colour and had distinct fuuin written across it, fuuin that would allow him to travel through space if he needed. Twisting his arm to make sure it moved with enough strength that it would hit it’s mark, Aimi did not move as he was of course dead the kunai would rip through Aimi’s flesh and deep into his left eye socket.
If he was faking it, he’d scream out in pain or even move. If it hit it’s mark it would be enough for Yoru to believe he was dead and perhaps Kasai and Shinji. No one just ignored a good old poke in the eye.

In the aftermath.
Flying in place in his bear form, just outside of Yoru’s barrier, Shinjiro watched as Aimi fell. He had intended on allowing the Mizukage and Aimi to have a proper fight but it seemed it had been short lived. He wasn’t sure how long Kasai intended to wait before disposing of the corpse but it was clear the battle was over and Shinjiro certainly held no reservations about acting as clean up duty. He knew full well that Katsu and Aimi were likely the two most difficult people in the world to kill; not due to their strength as shinobi or physical might so much as their tremendous ability to regenerate and find ways to survive lethal blows. Having Katsu hunting him for most of his life and fighting her as a youth, as well as sparring with Aimi before he defected had given him quite a bit of time to think about how to overcome such individuals.
Without uttering a word Shinjiro whistled lowly, the sound coming out with deeper, growling tones in his current bear form. But he had long mastered his legendary arrow and could control it freely no matter the transformed state he took on. Releasing it from his grasp the arrow would move forward at 50 Speed. Regardless if the Mizukage told him to stand down, Shinjiro would take matters into his own hands now. Katsu had managed to escape from the village once before, he wasn’t about to give any chances for Aimi to recover and do the same. Arrogance and playing with his food were not habits Shinjiro took to. He was a trained assassin and he knew only to kill in the most efficient and ruthless ways possible.
The arrow would deftly dart around or through any attempts at interference and when it reached a distance of about 10 meters from the corpse it would split in two, one aimed straight through the brain and the other the heart. Striking simultaneously in the same manner that he had killed Katsu. Having been nearly killed by immortals and elemental bodies many times he had come to appreciate being very thorough and never guessing blindly which was the best way to kill such individuals. If all the essentials were destroyed, he would be able to sleep soundly knowing the threat was properly disposed of. Naturally his arrow was coated in poisons, as he had applied them back in the seven swordsmen headquarters before responding to the invasion.
Following behind the arrow when he noticed it pass through the barrier without resistance Shinjiro would keep at a distance of 40 meters from Aimi when his arrows were expected to pierce through his vitals. He was wary about the Konoha shinobi’s involvement though he was sure between himself and the Mizukage they could handle him if he became a threat or tried anything shady. As long as Kasai kept slicing Aimi to pieces with his wind sword Shinjiro would keep back out of range of the 10 meter diameter swirling winds and wait for an opportunity to see if there were any remains left to dispose of.

Jutsu UsedShow
Malevolence (Moving with 50 Speed/Strength)
“For nobody is curious, who isn't malevolent.”
An arrow, approximately 2 feet in length, with a steel tip and flayed bottom. Malevolence is a single weapon, and is controlled often through the user’s voice, though variations have existed throughout history. The speed in which Malevolence moves, and the strength in which it strikes is equal to that of the user’s 'Malevolence' weapon stat. Its slim body and simple design makes it difficult to see coming, and even harder to dodge, and its ability to be controlled makes it able to make sharp turns, simply stop in mid-air, and easily alter its course. Additionally, the arrow is capable of splitting itself, creating 2 individuals that can all be controlled independently of each other. This weapon is stored in a thin black sheath at Shinji’s left hip with the tip pointing outward there remains just enough space in the sheath to flow poisons into it, able to coat the length of the arrow while retaining a snug fit for the weapon. Coated with Touch of Mortality and Shinigami's Kiss.
Chaos
Sheathed across Shinji’s back with the handle over his left shoulder this Katana measures 32 inches total with a blade length of 26 inches. The blade in deep crimson in color and has small groves along the length of the blade for storing and transferring poison across the blade and down to the tip of the sword. The Durability of this sword is 35 and it will repair any damage done to it over the course of 1 full post. The truly unique nature of the sword is that so long as they have a chakra network any being cut by it will be struck with immense fear and a sense of impending doom. They will fear Shinjiro especially, often collapsing in terror before going to great lengths to avoid him. This feeling of terror will persist for 2 full posts after being cut by the weapon. Having bonded with the weapon, Shinjiro is immune to its effects. Coated with Touch of Mortality.
Agony
Sheathed across Shinji’s back with the handle over his right shoulder this Katana measures 32 inches total with a blade length of 26 inches. The blade is black in color and has small groves along the length of the blade for storing and transferring poison across the blade and down to the tip of the sword. The Durability of this sword is 35 and it will repair any damage done to it over the course of 1 full post. The truly unique nature of the blade however is that any being that is cut by its edge, so long as they have chakra will feel an immense surge of pain throughout their entire body; this agony is comparable to every nerve in the body being exposed, making every movement excruciatingly painful and every sensation enhanced to extreme levels. This pain persists for 2 full posts after being cut. Only Shinjiro may wield this weapon with anyone else who uses it for the purpose of combat experiencing its pain effect so long as they remain in contact with the
weapon. Coasted with Shinigami's Kiss.
[Shinigami’s Kiss] (Four 250ml bottles)
A-Rank Coating Poison
A poison utilized by Shinjiro in order to render his victim's helpless, paralyzed from the neck down. In its original state this thick poison has a grey coloration though when infused in Shinjiro’s body it can be applied from any of his bodily fluids including his blood, saliva or sweat. Just a few drops introduced to the victim's system via entry though skin contact, blood stream or mucous membrane is enough for the poison to begin taking effect. It will begin as a slight tingling sensation in the area surrounding the entry point of the poison, before developing into full blown paresthesia of the entire body before the paralysis sets in. Once the paralysis is in place, it will prevent the victim from controlling their conscious motor functions. They will still be able to breath, their heart will continue to function as normal, but they will have no conscious control over their body. The only part not affected is their ability to move their eyes, slightly turn their head, and their ability to speak.

S-Rank Coating Poison
This sticky dark red poison can be distributed across Shinjiro’s weapons, affecting the victim upon entering their bloodstream or a mucous membrane. Additionally, this poison can be infused into Shinji’s own blood and other bodily fluids such as saliva and sweat according to his Shinigami’s Curse ability. Once this poison had been introduced the victim will no longer benefit from Enhanced Stamina Regeneration or any Regeneration ability, only able to heal their wounds through direct IIjutsu techniques that will require 1 post longer than usual in order to take affect.

In the aftermath.
The lightning struck and Katsu seemed to truly be paralysed and out of it, potentially capturable even if not for her known tenacity and previous attempts and wrongdoings against the village, causing a bit of a grin to form on the pink haired fox's face as he felt somewhat relieved an less worried of a counterattack.
Though things were not over as he had prepared the earth for a reason as he stepped closer to the two before him before, the second he now turned to as he responded in a way that seemed to attempt to brush the man's words aside "I simply heard there was some Konoha diplomat or whoever in the village but did not expect it to be someone like you", his words a little offhandish as he directed them at Yoru.
"Kill him too. Kill both of them!" called out a monstrous voice within the Tsukino, clearly annoyed at the pompous Konoha trying to be a hero as if he was better than them.
"Now Katsu..." he spoke more slyly as he turned back towards her "You have caused too much chaos and destruction against us, thus it is time for all this to come to an end" he spoke to her, clearly not expecting a response but in some ways disappointed that playtime was over.
With that another flare of magenta channelling surged from the man as he reached out to the earth and then ripped it apart with fast fluid motions, sending it whirling around around the leaf shinobi and pummelling all over the draconic beast as many rocks would begin to splinter and jab into flesh as they churned against her before all coming together to really pin into her body as he clasped his hands together.
As Nishiki moved on to his kinesis it seemed Yoru wanted to throw around remarks, annoying him somewhat and his own internal beast even more as it called out once again.
"KILL. THEM. BOTH!" Yoshimitsu bellowed within their mind.
The host tried not to get riled up by his genma, especially not these days but the combined assault of the tongue was a bit too spicy and he shone a small but devious grin at Yoru as yet another sign of channelling glew about him.
"Hold tight" he scoffed in a coy manner as he then planted his hands on the ground, instantly causing it to churn and rumble as the whole tunnel suddenly began to shift.
Nishiki wasn't necessarily wishing to kill a seemingly friendly visitor from another village but he was curious to see how he faired with what was to come, semi-hoping the man got really caught up in things as he aimed to finish Katsu and drag everyone back to the surface all in one.
Though of course, there could have been some numerous better attempts or other things that could've been done first but in a way "kill them both" was truly on his mind, as such there wasn't an attempt to singularly burn the paralysed demon or drown it or anything first but an all out rumbling that churned through the ground.
That being said the kinesised rocks would get get caught up in it and drag Katsu through and through, assuming no shenanigans of course as they ploughed right to the surface with a great eruption as the earth split and rolled into the wave with the Tsukino riding on top like some kind of misplaced surfer.
What shenanigans could happen Nishiki didn't know, he never heard Yoru's pleas toward the beast to control her core nor even truly knew of such a core at this time, as such if anything came of that he couldn't be certain at this time but he definitely made sure to drag the body through the churning rocks even on the surface as he manoeuvred to get his bearings.
Once they emerged everyone instantly turned to the eruption and some even jumping out of the way, with Karen finally happy (at least for her) to see some of the action as she approached ready to complete her seals at any moment even if all that emerged was what appeared to be a dead and tattered body as she simply knew to complete her mission at all costs as many of Kirigakure did and knew she could not let such a beast continue on a further rampage.
At this time the space dilation was beginning to let up and the distance between the academy and the Kage tower was starting to turn back to normal, though it would hopefully only be an advantage for Kirigakure at this current time as there was hopefully no-one to escape in said direction any longer.
Though things were not over as he had prepared the earth for a reason as he stepped closer to the two before him before, the second he now turned to as he responded in a way that seemed to attempt to brush the man's words aside "I simply heard there was some Konoha diplomat or whoever in the village but did not expect it to be someone like you", his words a little offhandish as he directed them at Yoru.
"Kill him too. Kill both of them!" called out a monstrous voice within the Tsukino, clearly annoyed at the pompous Konoha trying to be a hero as if he was better than them.
"Now Katsu..." he spoke more slyly as he turned back towards her "You have caused too much chaos and destruction against us, thus it is time for all this to come to an end" he spoke to her, clearly not expecting a response but in some ways disappointed that playtime was over.
With that another flare of magenta channelling surged from the man as he reached out to the earth and then ripped it apart with fast fluid motions, sending it whirling around around the leaf shinobi and pummelling all over the draconic beast as many rocks would begin to splinter and jab into flesh as they churned against her before all coming together to really pin into her body as he clasped his hands together.
As Nishiki moved on to his kinesis it seemed Yoru wanted to throw around remarks, annoying him somewhat and his own internal beast even more as it called out once again.
"KILL. THEM. BOTH!" Yoshimitsu bellowed within their mind.
The host tried not to get riled up by his genma, especially not these days but the combined assault of the tongue was a bit too spicy and he shone a small but devious grin at Yoru as yet another sign of channelling glew about him.
"Hold tight" he scoffed in a coy manner as he then planted his hands on the ground, instantly causing it to churn and rumble as the whole tunnel suddenly began to shift.
Nishiki wasn't necessarily wishing to kill a seemingly friendly visitor from another village but he was curious to see how he faired with what was to come, semi-hoping the man got really caught up in things as he aimed to finish Katsu and drag everyone back to the surface all in one.

In the aftermath.
Forming a hand seal, the man caused the swirling blades that smashed the white haired, half naked man deep down into the earth to expand transforming from what was a deadly tornado to more of a hurricane like twister that stretched fifteen meters into the earth as it tore apart the rock and earth sweeping it up into the winds making it difficult to see what was inside down at the very bottom of the whirling mass. The sixty-meter-tall mass stretched all the way up to the bottom of Kasai's feet as he maintained the strength of the barrier with the special element energy that was like a mixture of red, blue, brown and yellow hues that fluctuated in the outline of chakra that could be seen around the man's large frame. Wind from the swirling cyclone blue up the man's long raven locks to reveal the glowing yellow eyes that stared down into the darkness of the hole were one could barely make out the figure of the broken Kiri missing-nin, an arrogant smile on the scarred face of the Kage as his body started to descend down the center of the tornado as the weapon's from Shinji and Yoru smashed against the swirling mass of sharp air filled with dirt and rocks before being tossed away with fifty five strength.
His golden hue gaze shifted towards the genma host who had just arrived, ever so eager to kill and then his head tilted up towards the White Eyed Demon of Konoha, him to so eager to interfere in the matters of Kiri....after he had finished making an example out of Aimi he would need to deal with this arrogant Leaf shinobi as well. Suddenly the man's body dropped like a rock falling quickly down to the ground as his feet smashed into the ground just short of Aimi's, able to visibly see it slowly healing itself from what would have normally killed any other shinobi. "What a waste you are, little Aimi-kun." A harsh, condescending tone was spat from the Kage's mouth as he tilted his head down slightly allowing the raven locks to fall in front of his glowing eyes, "You could have been one of the greatest warriors of Kiri but you let yourself go a stray." Kasai couldn't help but gently shake his head as he lifted his feet pulling them out of the damaged ground from his fall as he stepped up so that his feet were only a few inches apart from one another. Again he shook his head and started laughing to himself, "Kukuku..."
The Mizukage reached up with his gloved right hand and ran the finger of his hand through his hair starting at his forehead and pushing it back pulling the messy crimson locks out of his gaze allowing the missing-nin and his Kage to see one another clearly at this point. "You've turned out to be quite a disappointment, was this really the power you had hoped to use to come here and leave alive with?" The sticky goo that was still on his left arm and leg was suddenly blasted off as a burst of wind escaped both of the limbs launching the green substances off to the left side of the pair where it inhered itself onto the broken ground. "Hurry and pull yourself together...stop being such an embarrassment to your heritage as a Kiri shinobi. "

In the aftermath.
'...No, no, that won't work...'
Aimi Kaguya was deaf to the Mizukage's taunts, numb to the feeling of the wind against his broken body, and blind to the attacks that had come his way only to be deflected by the same winds that had driven him into the ground. His mind, though, was still active, at least to some extent. With his body in disrepair and currently rapidly healing itself, the rogue bannin's mind had withdrawn into itself, down close to his subconscious, his thoughts almost like that of a dream. Outwardly he would still appear to be dead, and really, who was anyone there to know otherwise? Before he had left, Kasai had burned the document containing what knowledge Kirigakure had about him right before the Kaguya's eyes. It had been years since then, had Kasai ever read it thoroughly enough to know the extent of his healing ability? Did any of them know for certain that his body was not acting on it's own without life being present within, same as the green-mist-like jutsu that still rose from his healing corpse?
'...I need to...'
His thoughts were images, the occasional words echoing out in what was otherwise silence. The smells of blood and dirt filled his nose, one of his only active senses left, as his vitals remained just shy of true death. Internally the bones had already healed, set back into black and filled in cracks. His flesh was closing as the Reaper stood over him, taunting a deaf corpse, and his organs bound themselves back together. It wouldn't be long now, just a few more seconds...
'...then...'
His organs were the worst of the damage. They were tricky to heal up, medically speaking, requiring more time, effort and finesse to deal with than setting bones, closing cuts or even extracting poison. They had to remain inside, you see, so a medic needed intimate knowledge of where the organs were, what their purpose was in how they functioned and how they were meant to be. Mistakes could not be tolerated. You needed to take your time, or your patient would die. He'd learned this lesson once, long ago, but had never really applied it to anyone other than himself. When would he have had the chance when he was mostly sent on missions by himself or at best with a partner who was almost always as equally capable as him? Aimi Kaguya's use as a medical ninja had been dwarfed by his capabilities as a frontline fighter long, long ago, so it was only natural that he had turned his knowledge inward, producing the taijutsu that was healing his body now. Any second now....
'... Once it's over...'
Dream-like he drifted within his trance as his most vital organs were treated by his regenerative capabilities. A self-induced intense state of meditation that shut down almost all secondary functions that the body had to offer in order to focus on repairing itself. He had hoped that it wouldn't come to using that here and now, but things hadn't gone as planned. Katsu showing up had been a surprise that he never saw coming and didn't account for. What was she doing now? Had she gotten what she came for and left him behind? There was someone else there as well, someone that had clouded his vision for a second time as they draped a blanket of sleepiness over him that lasted for only a second, but long enough for Kasai to put him in this state. Who were they? Where were they? It wouldn't matter shortly...
'...suffer...'
The last of the cuts closed. The organs were put back into place. Aimi Kaguya's white hair, pale skin and white cloak were stained and soaked in his own blood, his face pressed into the ground below, body still and vitals remaining low despite his injuries being healed.
His flaming eyes opened for no one to see.

In the aftermath.
The electricity surged through Katsu's body like a fire searing through the underbrush. With it's paralytic effect holding her she could do nothing but struggle in futility as her arm was removed from her. Yoru once again laying hands upon her caused the power to surge once again. What came next was so much worse though. The earth began to roil and churn as she was forced through the crust of dirt and stone and her limbs impaled by hardened spikes of rock. The inane pain that raced through every fiber of her being was beyond excruciating. However, it was managed as she saw the surface break and her skin meet sunlight once more. Seeing the brilliant light and once more feeling the warmth upon her skin, the woman attempted to do something, a desperate plan being hatched. With her leg being barely attached and looking like it was beyond destroyed, she attempted to manually move her brain, the core of her existence, to it. She attempted to hide it within her thigh, allowing her to hopefully survive to escape later. From there, she left a faximily of a brain its it's place and allowed herself to go limp, cutting off her own breathing and simply laying there. Hoping this would work.

In the aftermath.
The clone of Yoru still had the raiton covering his body, protecting him from any debris of the rocks that we’re flinging around. Though it certainly knocked him off balance, he didn’t quite expect Nishki to be so ruthless. Perhaps he was more powerful than Yoru first suspected.
The rocks wrapped around Katsu, crushing her beneath them as they continued upwards out of the ground and on to the surface and dropping the fleshy arm of Katsu.
He sighed loudly “How rude young Nishki, I am on your side you know.” He said, which wasn’t ultimately true. It appeared Katsu was now dead, or so it would seem.
Pulling off his eyepatch byakugan forced it’s way on as the fuuin was no longer keeping in deactivated, so he could see how his counterpart was doing. However he noticed that Katsu had moved her core from it’s original position but chose not to put it in the arm he had cut off.
Annoying.
Thought Yoru, it was clear now to him that Katsu had no intention of keeping an alliance if she managed to escape and was no longer useful for him for her to be alive, furthermore she could come after him in the future and even if she didn’t retreat back to river would bring Kiri through his door step.
“She’s still alive.” He said, as he withdrew his kunai stabbing through her thigh and destroying the brain that she had moved there. Finally putting an end to her.
“Nishiki it seems you’ve become a very formidable shinobi. You should have used that technique against me in the tournament I’m only frail.” He said with a smirk “I suggest you go help your teamates.” he pointed out into the distance, where a large shield had formed making it clearly visible from afar.
Assuming Katsu was disposed of the clone poofed into a cloud, restoring whatever chakra was left within the original Yoru.
Yoru felt a surge of chakra build through him as his clone knowledge and chakra returned, he was surprised with the events that had unfolded and soon expected Nishiki to arrive on the scene.
The Bannin of Konoha could do very little in the current situation, he’d simply have to watch as he flapped his large wings fluttering high above the mist that had formed. It seemed odd to him that Kasai was protecting Aimi, perhaps it was part of their Kiri warrior pride. Pride which Yoru had none of. His kunai flung off the torrent of wind landing directly next to it on the ground below.
He could use a jutsu to break through the mist and in turn the wind barrier but it would cause nothing but issues for Kasai and he had no intention of hurting the Mizukage. His gaze fell upon Shinji, Yoru rose up his hand to indicate he was simply an ally for today and not an enemy. Though they both knew if circumstances we’re different and Yoru didn’t have diplomatic immunity they’d likely be fighting to the death.
Then it dawned on him, if Kasai did die today all bets would be off and Shinji would be free to attack. Yoru would simply have to make himself useful enough for him not to be seen as an enemy. For now he’d simply wait.

In the aftermath.
As Yoru watched the events unfold, it was becoming more and more clear to him that he shouldn't be here. This was down to Kiri and their mess to sort out. Stroking his finger across his bracelet he teleported back home leaving the water country behind for good.
In the aftermath.
Kasai could feel that his ability to draw upon the raw energy that the natural elements gave off around him was beginning to fade slightly, it was time for him to end this once and for all as Aimi seemed insistent upon drawing this out but the Mizukage had already grown quite tired of waiting and in a flash of movement the man made a series of hand seals before his chest seemed to expand almost unnaturally outward before his exhaled a long stream of powerful fire that rushed forward directly into the swirling cyclone of wind. Like a black hole the tornado of fuuton began to suck up the stream of a flames as the tornado changed from clear to a fiery red hue as the old shinobi combined both his affinity for Fuuton with his affinity for Katon, both pushed to the absolute limit of his own ability that few in this world of chakra warriors could say they had reached.
With the flaming tornado that carried within its core super-heated flames with the cutting force of the wind Kasai who stood in the middle of such a tremendous force could only smile as he couldn't feel the heat produced by the dual kinesis technique as he leaped upwards into the air nearly twenty meters before his body spun around and both arms reached out as the multicolored chakra from his body of the elements flared brightly. Then he moved both hands downwards as the molten winds that encased both him and the ex-bannin came alive and swirled downwards to the point that it revealed the Mizukage floating in midair as the tornado itself collapsed down upon the injured man. Inside the raging vortex of flames and wind (both at fifty strength) the body of the once renown man who had even managed to claim a country as his own would be melted and cut away by Kasai's attack.
This would only take a few moments to literally strip the tough body of Aimi down to literally the bone as his skin, muscle, and organs were torn asunder and melted simultaneously by the combination attack from the old man. Down to the point that there was nothing left but bone which too was slowly cut and melted away around the large crater that had been formed initially from the Kage's attack increased nearly double in size as the ground around was heated to the point of looking like molten lava briefly. But the show couldn't go on forever as Kasai brought his hands together almost like in prayer before then throwing them apart as the firey mass was blasted apart as if responding to his hand movement alone. This was followed by Kasai descending to the still melted ground as though he did not fear injury as his gold eyes scanned the lack of remaining evidence that the shinobi had even been there, just like that day he had destroyed the file on Aimi today he had done the same to the man. Erasing both his past, present, and future from this world...this was something his duties required as the Mizukage.
Today he had seen the strength of his fellow shinobi whom he led as their Kage, the old man took a moment to turn his scarred face from side-to-side to take in not the destruction caused by the two former Kiri shinobi, but the power that had been displayed by the current younger generation. Perhaps it was time for him to finally go on his way, it would seem that the village had grown to the point since the day he had taken the reins of Kirigakure by force, that it seemed he wasn't needed to truly protect it. After this he would need to speak with the council, it would seem it was time for someone new to guide his precious village. Old monsters like him truly were a dying breed in front of the younger generation...

In the aftermath.
Katsu briefly opened an eye and witnessed Yoru with his knife. Sending the end possibly coming, she once again moved her brain further down her leg but made no other movement, hopefully dodging the execution attempt.

In the aftermath.
Nishiki surfed his rocky earth getting his bearings when he noticed Yoru managed to survive which was a little saddening but mostly great, especially when the man seemed to notice that Katsu was still alive and seemingly went for the kill with a swift blow which seemed quite satisfactory to the young fox.
With a grin he came down from the rock pile, letting it collapse as he approached and checked the demonic beast's body with his own personal satisfaction that she seemed defeated but then he looked a little shocked for the Konoha man to suddenly poof after pointing out the oddities in the distance.
"Snarky bastard was a clone all along ha!" grumbled Yoshimitsu within their shared space.
"Quite" the Tsukino simply replied to both at once.
With that Karen approached, tutting at the fact she prepared some sort of big fuuinjutsu trap for nothing with a tail of younger shinobi behind her.
"Show offs" she muttered in slight detest but with a hidden tone of triumph "Well, I suppose you should do as that idiot said whilst I take care of this mess" she then properly commented, almost trying to make out it was her idea.
"Suppose so... Seal her body up or something, maybe we can hand it to researchers" Nishiki rebutted, waving his left hand as if to dismiss her words.
The foxman then turned and unfurled the wings of wind that still had some juice in them and with a whirl of dust sprung for the skies, dashing through the air towards the Kage building were happenings seemed to be going on.
As the man left, Karen immediately began sealing away Katsu's body as a multitude of sheets of paper began to fly out of her bag and wrap around it (10 control) as she then started to draw a fuuin made of ink and instructed her team to help carry it to be studied whilst the rest of the chumps began tidying away all the rubble and mess and attending to those that might still need help and assistance.
Nishiki flew in and approached the Kage building in time to see a lot of chaos and power of furious melting elements eating at the ground as Kasai spewed intense flames at a particular man, though it was difficult to grasp the situation he knew it within himself that such destruction was the death of the crazed man that started this whole ordeal in the first place; Aimi.
The fox didn't get too close just yet and simply hovered as he took in his old mentor's demise and the utter destruction around him, his mind trying to handle the death and the danger of such a high level fight.
"Aimi... So tragic..." he muttered as he still couldn't fully believe it, yet he couldn't shed a tear as he knew he was a traitor and never spared him as kin so surely wouldn't have spared him now.
"Hahaha stupid fool" the genma within simply laughed at the bone user's defeat, seemingly quite happy for him to die.

In the aftermath.
As the paper would close in around her Katsu would press her leg against the dirt just a little bit harder, barely enough for even a visible movement. With the earth and soil already roiled and lose, she'd sacrifice this body and rely on the shard of Vorashu to once again spare her from death, the brain leaving the body to bury itself in the dirt and continue to burrow, making sure to leave no trace of what was done. There she'd reconstitute her body, and then burrow/swim her way out of the village. Before she did, using a tendril, she would tear open the now lifeless back of her once body, and drag the sack of scrolls with her.
In the aftermath.
[OOC: I'm really not seeing how Katsu is able to evade Yoru's stab when he is using the Byakugan and has 50 speed. And then on top of that moving out of the body undetected to avoid being sealed. Can cores even move around freely like that without a jutsu? And not really understanding the last bit about taking the scrolls off the sealed body when the area is still full of shinobi, some of which are sensors as indicated earlier. Just feels like there should be a mod call on whether or not Katsu is able to survive and/or escape]

[Unless there is a specific jutsu that allows the core to move independently, it's locomotor ability is limited to whatever it is being held in. In the case of Katsu, I would presume that Katsu's innard are some sort of abstract viral goo and the core can move freely within her body, but outside of it, Katsu will need a specific technique. Based on the writing, I'm guessing the intend was to make a long tentacle of goo to carry the core, but I don't see any specific jutsu Katsu had that can do that. And if they do, Katsu would be subject to the forces Iza mentioned such as the sensors/etc so it's unlikely Chi would be able to make a full retreat without anyone having the opportunity to intervene.]

In the aftermath.
Two villains dead and lots of destruction but the village was now safe and could begin to mend as shinobi strong in repair jutsu rushed throughout and set about their duties.
Meanwhile meetings where add and others began to shift back to regular life, whatever that may be, though students may be disappointed that they could not get some learning done at least for the day thanks to Katsu's rampage but alas they knew they were safe and the likes of Nishiki, Karen, Shinji, the Konoha Stranger and their elite Mizukage rang through the ears of the village with grand praise as all the dust settled on this day (and some even swore Shiv did something at some point but weren't sure).
