An orb of brilliant white light left Aydan's palm, slamming into the Gates before him, causing them to buckle and crack. A second shot following the first would blow the gate of its hinges. Kneeling down, Aydan drew a seal on the ground with one hand, and with the other, pulled out a myriad of papers covered in seals that he threw into the air, allowing them to spread all over the area. Soon the sentries would alert the village leadership that another individual was at the gates.
"Run little sheep to your false shepherd. She will not save you. She will not save any of you from the glory of the Light."
As he walked, the pale-skinned, vibrantly red-eyed man reflected upon the many juvenile years he'd spent in this village. Somehow...somehow they all weren't killed back then for being deserters of so many villages. Maybe it was because their governments were so stacked with responsibilities, they didn't even notice their exit. Or perhaps it was due to the abundance of shinobi ready and able to take their spot in a moment's notice. Either way, the nomadic period of this country had paved the way to many strong jutsu being created, and ever stronger being so even today. The lesson he'd learned from this village was a tough one, however; he was still a cloud shinobi when he'd had his first battle with a much younger friend of his...their Jounin exam. Try as he might to take an inch and succeed, he learned that day what it meant to stand in the face of overwhelming power. It taught him that no matter what, his strength needed to be transcendent, that in his mind, no one around him was his equal. That was what one required in order to build an unshakable empire above all else. To be a true ruler.
And so, this once-prominent ruler came upon the gates he once commanded to see...a strange man. With his sharingan already active, Kaisen stopped about three feet away from these strange papers that seemed to be on the ground, and listened for a brief moment to the man rambling about how glorious the light was or whatever. "Look, if that's all the more interesting you're going to make your visit to a village, then you'd better pick up a new day job. A piss-poor speech like that isn't going to scare anyone, especially after you only blew off the gate." By now, it would be likely that Aydan had turned to face him, though it wasn't required. Kaisen's sharingan would quickly morph into its apex form, bringing forth the eternal night, for which his eyes alone were famed.
"You and I are also funnily at odds. You prefer the light; I, the dark. I wonder, what will happen when those two forces collide? There is no better time to find out, my boy. Especially after desecrating the gates of my home. Come!"
"And so the first sheep arrives for the slaughter. I had no quarrel with you, but if you are intent upon fighting me, then I will grant you a swift, and painless death." In a brief moment, a seal, oddly three feet from Kaisen since he was nice enough to get that close glowed for a fraction of a second. Suddenly Aydan would appear on it, throwing his palm forward, already glowing. A moment later, a ten meter area around Kaisen would be pulverized. With his other hand, he would snap his fingers, summoning an other worldly mass next to him, the Psycho Soul. It would quickly form into a grotesque blob, quickly wrapping around them both. "Be warned, even if you should strike me down, the Lord of Light will not abandon me. Can you say the same of your false gods? You will die alone and know everlasting darkness. Repent heathen."
Smite SS This ability can easily be used to cheap-shot foes, but it generally won't kill opponents unless it can land a direct hit. Holding out their palm, the Heiland pinpoints a ten foot radius, targeting it for a fury of extremely fast (nigh impossible to evade if you're in the radius) psycho-waves that will degenerate and disassemble whatever is within the target area within a matter of moments. This takes about a second to wind-up after the palm is fully facing the opponent, and the palm will begin to glow white to give them a warning of what's next. This attack is similar to what would happen if you were smashed with a sledgehammer thousands of times in a matter of a few seconds.
Psycho Soul C-SS (can be instantly amplified) The Psycho Soul is a sentient creature that manifests the will of the Psycho Shift. It appears simply as a breeze of energy that follows the Heiland around, but when the Heiland is in danger or directs this spiritual force towards the foe, it will immediately manifest a dark color and begin to fulfill their interests. It can extend depending on the rank, from the size of a horse at C-rank, to the size of a dragon at SS. It is one of the cardinal abilities of the Heiland bloodline. It has a deconstructive property to it, making techniques and other tangible constructs degenerate rapidly to the point of complete dismantlement. This technique lasts until it is destroyed. It is completely flexible; it is just a wisp of energy; you could compare it to a solid fog.

And there it was. Quite unfortunate. The man chose to confront one of the world's best physical combatants with an up-front duel to the death. The man was little disturbed by the sudden appearance of his foe--the flying thunder god not being anywhere near a new skill to him--and in fact, Kaisen's blade was already drawn and moving as the boy was throwing his palm out. Even if the two were to trigger their attacks at the same time, it would result in the following: Kaisen's blade would slice him in half as the area around Kaisen would begin to be pulverized. As the aftermath of this technique ended, the older man could be seen standing in the midst of what appeared to be a 10-meter wasteland. A particular skill of his--one in a personal style he developed--allowed him to analyze the energy of his opponent and quickly coat his body in equally ranked chakra to negate the damage. Very simple.
And with that, Kaisen quickly made his way into the Cloud village.

Ninjutsu blades can penetrate this armor.
Serial Pillar Houses Technique This technique is a larger scaled version of the Wood Release: Four-Pillar House Technique where, instead of creating a single house, the user creates multiple houses at once. Because of the sheer volume of structures created with this technique, it appears to exhaust him rather quickly. The user can create an entire section of a village with this technique.
Smothering Bind Technique This technique is similar to the Wood Release: Great Forest Technique, as it also transforms the user's arm into several wood tendrils which can be used to capture and restrain an enemy.

Mokuton: Mokuryuu Rendan no Jutsu [Wood Release: Wooden Dragon Barrage Skill] A skill that is a widespread attacking jutsu, where the user brings forth various dragon heads from the ground. These dragon heads are created out of wood, and essentially pin down the opponent onto the ground slamming them in the process. It is rumored this jutsu was used to help subdue Jinchuuriki.
Mokuton: Mokuryū no Jutsu [Wood Dragon Technique] After performing the required hand seals, the user creates a gigantic wooden dragon from any surface, which is then directed to attack an intended target. Its shape closely resembles a Chinese dragon, though with a short trunk-like nose, having an elongated and serpentine body, which can be used to constrict larger opponents. It also has the ability to absorb a tailed beast's chakra once it is bound. Since it is animated, it essentially has a mind of its own.
Mokuton: Kajukai Kōrin [Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees] Taking advantage of the innate properties of Wood Release — to be able to force trees to grow on any surface in an instant — the user creates a dense forest of flowering trees. The pollen produced by these flowers is then released into the air and when inhaled, renders any afflicted target unconscious.
In order to counter the technique fully, either the trees themselves must be destroyed completely or the target must continue to remain elevated above the dispersed pollen. Inhaling any amount the pollen will weaken your body, reducing your stats by three for the duration of the battle. Inhaling a decent sum of the pollen will render you unconscious, totally at the mercy of the foe. The pollen stretches out as high as the tallest tree, which is 400 feet in the air. The user of the technique is immune to the pollen.
Mokuton: Jubaku Eisō [Wood Release: Tree Bind Flourishing Burial] This technique lets the user summon a tree around their opponent to bind them. This technique is relatively powerful and holds opponents much more gracefully, with less of a strain on the user, because the user sinks them into the ground. Afterwards, the user can enclose the opponent so that their body is crushed.
Mokuton: Jukai Heki [Wood Release: World of Trees Wall] One of the strongest barriers in the Senju arsenal, this one creates multiple pieces of wood that all interlace, to form a net-like wall that is extremely strong.
SS-Ranked Mokuton: Mokujin no Jutsu [Wood Avatar Technique] After forming the required hand seals, the user creates an enormous statue-like creature out of wood. This humanoid creature with a full body, and an oni-like face is usually created with a wooden dragon wrapped around its left arm, and is generally used in battle as an avatar. This creature is powerful enough to catch an uncompressed Tailed Beast Ball fired by the Nine-Tails. If the wood dragon is used as a weapon, it is the ultimate anti-bijuu weapon, with the long sword-like whip draining the tailed-beast's chakra upon all contact (and stunning them). It can go toe-to-toe with a Susano'o.
Mokuton: Hōbi no Jutsu [Wood Release: Hōbi Technique] Using Wood Release, the user creates a dome-like defensive structure that completely surrounds which takes the form of a dragon's face. This defence is split down the middle and can be opened on the user's command. It is strong enough to withstand the destructive force of a Tailed Beast Ball (immune to bijuudama).
Mokuton: Shinra Banshō [Wood Release: All-Covering Forests] A literal sea of trees and growth, putting all other forest creation technique's to shame. This forest is powerful enough to cover an entire hidden village, and can easily overgrow and consume a bijuu, growing and wrapping around it.
A diplomat is not the first job title a person would give to Killer Queen. Katherine reveled, once upon a time, in "ninjutsu diplomacy," where she killed anyone in her way, anyone who wronged her, or anyone who stepped incorrect of her brother. THe barbarian would was ruthless, and so were they. The delicate flower that Katherine could have been died in the cold, and her goal became protecting herself and her brother. For a while she was merely a murdering crime boss, the Kingpin of Oto no Kuni to some, the Demon of the Sound to others, but everyone knew the name Killer Queen. When her operation was uprooted, inevitably, mercy was shown as she begged for the life of her brother before her own. The 16 year old monster was locked in a cage over a long period under Eiji, and by 21 she was a leader, looked to for inspiration. Killer Queen was hidden from the world willingly because this new life showed her a different side. Katherine was not, however, known for her patience even so. She was, after all, descended from dragons and bloody barons. Times like this provided a rare opportunity.
The assassin had been trained by Eiji in espionage to the best of his ability, then by SEPIA, so when a spy was found from Cloud, Katherine knew a response was owed to Enma. She toyed with the idea of launching a hit-and-run on him, or maybe murdering an advisor and leaving a warning note. Nah, the world needed to be aware of her power but no one needed to die yet. She neared the gates under the cover of the treeline, her eyes shut off so as to not give her away, but her speed was still extremely formidable. She knew how special forces worked, so she was easily able to avoid the anbu in the countryside as she blinked between trees, under bridges, quickly darted through clearings. Now she was close to the gates, the monolith of stone that surrounded the gates. She darted at maximum speed to a spot between guard towers and patrols after observing them patiently for what felt like ages. Up the wall she darted, then dashed into a guard tower silently. She wrapped an arm around the neck of the guard, driving her knee into his lower back, then knee to wind and disable him as she cut off the flow of blood until he passed out . He fell to the ground and she waited patiently in the shadow, crouched low for the guard coming close to approach. Silently she struck his head from behind. He had no idea where she came from but was knocked completely out by her strike. She ran down the wall quickly then, clutching her sword close just in case. Her body flickered quickly, morso than most ninja ever reach, into the shadows of a building. It would be another three minutes before her infiltration was discovered after hiding the two inside of the guard tower, making them to appear as if sitting in the chairs. She was in, easy as pie for the woman of such high speed and stealth.

Enma arrived to the gates. With his speed and the power of flight, he was more mobile than most, though he had no doubt the shinobi invader would likely come in no time. She hadn't been through again since entering, by the smell of things, and if she came through the gate, there was little chance she had an alternate route in and out of the village. He was semi-invisible, and didn't land, so to not make himself too obvious. After all, if the guest was so skilled as to bypass the village's security, though more lax than Enma would have liked, as well as been cocky enough to leave a greeting card at Enma's desk, he liked to think this kunoichi was skilled enough to notice should he be flying in the sky or camouflaged on the ground. With both, he had a chance to catch her off guard.

Reaching the gate had been a far simpler matter than getting to the office once she knew where she was going. Avoiding turning the scattering military force into a mass of casualties proved a small challenge, but she avoided them as handily as before. Upon reaching the gates she appeared dead center ahead of it but with quite a distance to go, drawing the attention of those around her. With a smirk on her lips, one hand formed hand seals while her eyes turned up into an inviting look as well, and she waved a goodbye. A mere second after she'd come within detection range, her body turned into a puff of wind and she was gone, appearing a whole mile out into the country before taking off once again in a black and white haze of chakra, a moon and star in her left and right eye.

Landing, Enma released his mutations. How rude, to leave without a proper hello. Perhaps he might visit Otogakure on his own. But, alas, he had to protect his village. As for the village guard, he'd be cutting their salary hard this month.
But it goes to show that Enma was still lacking. That he had areas which he needed more strength in, more skill and ability. However, he'd overcome this trial with willpower and hard work, as he always had. With that thought, he sat upon the village gates, making sure nobody else would come through uninvited.
"" Correct to his guess, Ren would look above to see Enma standing atop the gates, guarding his village diligently. "Lord Raikage, I have a request for you." Ren wall-walked up to the top of the gate, giving a quick bow to his Kage before continuing to speak. "I was told by Cecil that the airship was going to be destroyed as a result of his training exercise with the other two members of my squad. I was wondering if you would be willing to take this decision back, as I frequently use the structure as a calming place for meditation. If not...that's okay, I can find a different place to meditate." Truth be told, Ren was seriously hoping Enma would reconsider his current plans, so that the young Jinchuuriki would be able to retain his calming training ground.

Enma looked down at the hallucination. At least, he asumed somebody had placed a genjutsu on him when he wasn't looking. After all, a subordinate paying respect? What kind of madness is this in the Cloud Village. But what if it was real? Hm... On the other hand, if it was an illusion, he'd look the fool... However, it wouldn't really ruin the image of him with the village anyway, so on the off chance that this was reality then he might as well act the part since there was nothing to lose.
Enma jumped down, landing in superhero landing form, and took a quick look at the genin before him. He smelled... dangerous. It made his bestial instincts cry out KILL IT. But, as he had for years, he suppressed those less humane callings. Logically thinking this through, there's only one thing he'd ever felt this from, a tailed beast he'd subjugated a number of years back, power incarnate which took residence in the mountains of the Lightning Country. He'd heard the sealing was successful, but had forgotten about that whole matter over time. So this was the one, eh? The genin, he remembered from his files, was called... Ken? Ren? Men? Hm, he'd double-check later. For now he better just act like he knew.
"You're *ahem*-en, correct?" Enma began, sticking his chest out and stroking his chin, eyes narrowing in pretend deep-thought. "I suppose, given your disposition, you'd require a more isolated training grounds, for the safety of the village. Yes, yes, I think I'll allow it. The ship, and the airspace, will be allotted to you personally for the time being." Kiyoko might have something to say about this later, but whatever. She'd just pose and give him a 'talking to', but in the end she wouldn't have the guts to back up her words. Even if she did, he'd win. "Tell Cecil that the ship's demolition has been postponed due to circumstances, and to leave it intact. I may come by later, since your... disposition, let's call it, is actually quite similar to my own." Jinchuuriki and Jyuugo, two different beasts bound by similar curses, standing on the line between monster and human. He sympathized with the lad, as his genin days weren't easy for him as his berserker often caused a plethora of collateral damage until he had learnt to channel it to work for him.
In the distance, he saw the airship shake and create numerous white spikes. "On the other hand, I'll take a look." So he left to the airship to make sure it actually wasn't destroyed.
I am the ＳＯＬＵＴＩＯＮ. An ＡＮＳＷＥＲ to your problem. A ＰＲＯＢＬＥＭ__ＳＯＬＶＥＲ in the making.

He walks through the gates, heading into the path of the other two that were standing there chatting it up. As he walked, he was inspecting a big scroll that overlapped his shoulder and trailed behind him like a tail, not watching where he was going as he muttered to himself,
"Okay, a hop, skip, and jump to the hot springs, then its back to work, ugh..." He stops a few times to scribble something into the scroll, then keeps strolling onward a little step by step. "Sometimes I wish I wasn't so deep in ninjutsuuuuuuuuUUUUUUU!!! AHHH!" he trips and falls flat on his face in front of the gates, getting to his knees as he tugs the scroll off of himself and notices his windbreaker jacket had ink smudges all over it, "dammit..." He sits back and gives a more annoyed sigh as he starts to roll the big scroll up.
Edit: Yuu leaves the gates and makes his way to another area...
