Masato blinked at Kirito responded to him. That wasn't exactly what he was looking for. Rather, he didn't think it would have been so easy for the teenager to figure out the problem and address it quite so quickly. If anything, it kind of made Masato proud. Er, perhaps happy would be the better word here? If Kirito was able to pick up on things easily by quickly addressing the problem and coming up with a solution, then training the boy wouldn't be that much of a problem. That and if he was a quick learner here, then it could be safe to assume that this property also transits in other aspects, such as combat. If he could rely on Kirito to be quick on his feet and have a sharp mind, then that means he could focus on the fight at hand much easier without having to worry about his partner as much. In short, this would only strengthen their compatibility together. Even though he was shocked at the fact that the Hyuuga could identify the problem so quickly, he was more infatuated with what he addressed the problem to be, that being that he didn't refine his chakra enough.
He wasn't sure as to why that would have been the problem when almost every attack or chakra usage comes with medium to heavy refinement. Just what was he trained in that possibly required weakly polished chakra? Sadly that would have to come later as before he can inquire about said subject the young teenager took the stance Masato had shown him once more and began to take in his breath for the ensuing attack. Instead of waiting till after, Kirito chose to answer Masato immediately rather than making the changes to his formula first so that he wouldn't forget them. The Chuunin's dark orbs would reflect the bulging veins on either side of the Genin's eyes as he activated his Byakugan. The fact that he knew how to activate their ocular asset was a good sign. Perhaps he should have asked that first and then he could have shown Kirito how to do it the first time, and the male wouldn't have had to went through trial and error simply because he could have watched how Masato refined his chakra in his palm. Speaking of watching the flow and concentration of chakra, Masato too activated his Byakugan, his usual dark orbs changing into a milky white as the veins on either side of his face began to become more pronounced. With his ocular asset active, he would watch the boy funnel his chakra into his arms and condense it before releasing it with a quick thrust of his palm.
Masato gave a nod of approval as Kirito continued to practice the technique to make sure he got a feel for it. ❝Very good. You learn quick. I could teach you some more, but it's getting late and I don't want to keep our contact waiting. Let's go do our first mission together.❞ As if emphasizing his point about the time he pointed to the sky which was growing even darker than it already was due to the heavy cloud coverage. ❝If we can wrap this up quickly I'll buy dinner.❞ The towering male flashed a cheeky friendly wide grin and began to make his way to the meeting spot until he was interrupted by the arrival of a new person. This person would be the Genin, Escher. Despite being a higher rank, Masato turned to the male and gave a polite yet apologetic bow. ❝My name is Masato Yamana, it's nice to meet you too. I'm sorry but we are running late. Perhaps once we finish this we could become more acquainted at a later time? I'm not exactly sure what we are doing myself, but from what I was told it will take a while. So we most likely will not be back until late. If you are still up though, we should be grabbing our dinner at the Raindrop. Sorry again. Bye!❞ With that, Masato left. He figured that the male was trying to make friends, and Masato was all about having friends and the like, but if he dragged this out any longer he would get a mouthful from Armand later.

"The world is fragile, just like the minds of men and can be easily changed."
Escher watched as the two left, the taller one apologizing as he introduced himself. Must be a pretty important mission. He then decided to turn on his heel and come back the way he came. He wanted to got met the Kage since he never formally met him yet. On the same token, he was hoping to get assigned to a squad or maybe to take a mission or two.
Rather than heading straight to the Raindrop after another long day on the crews, Korrin found himself not-so-accidentally at the training grounds. Granted he had changed course at least a dozen times before finally bringing himself to face the fact that he missed the shinobi life. The strange but short interaction with the kid int he bar, Esher, planted an idea in his head that just wouldn't go away. So, instead of making like a sensible person and getting out of the rain after a long day at work, Korrin was standing in the middle of a big, empty, soggy field stretching muscles he hadn't even thought about in years.
Done stretching, Korrin conjured a clone and sent it twenty paces away. In his youth, an easy target to hit. Korrin took in a deep breath and flipped through a well-remembered series of handseals and fired a Raikou Boruto no Jutsu (Lightning Bolt Technique) at the clone. The bolt flew harmlessly past the clone's shoulder.
Korrin grunted with minor disdain. Easy in his youth apparently wasn't so easy now. Feeling like releasing his frustration, he dropped into a Tame Za Kyokudo stance and stared down the clone. It charged, badly telegraphing a superman punch. Korrin easily evaded, spinning left and landing a clean backfist to the clones jaw. It disappeared with a rather unsatisfying puff.
However, this gave Korrin an idea. He then summoned 7 more clones and had them spread out around him. Then the clones charged in. The one directing before him threw a roundhouse. Korrin absorbed it with his arm and body before striking the clone's knee with his front foot. The clone lurched, and Korrin backfisted it in the nose to disperse it. A clone attempted to flank him to the side, but Korrin deftly caught its punch with an outside block and immediately smacked the crook of its elbow with a hammerfist. The clone's arm jerked down, leaving it easily exposed for a palm-heel strike to the jaw.
Another clone was felled with a jump back-kick that Korrin did not even bother to look for, the scuffing steps behind him were clue enough. This left four more clones, and Korrin now grinning at his old instincts firing anew.

Raphael released the clouds allowing the rain to fall around him once more. Next, it was time to focus solely on skills that would make him a better shinobi than an attack dog like most combatants around him. He had watched and took notice of his fellow shinobi around him and the skills they take upon themselves to learn. What they lack, is the knowledge of common shinobi tactics and this was a problem to Raphe and all that it meant to be a ninja. Everything wasn't about attack attack attack, but it was about deception, stealth, hiding, and attacking only when it was absolutely necessary and the moment was optimum. So, he begun with the basics, tree walking.
Raph walked up to a tree and formed hand signs and focused chakra to the soles of his feet and stepped out onto the tree. What was suppose to happen was that, Raphael would stand firmly upon the tree. What actually happened was that Raphael applied too much chakra to his soles and thus was pushing through the tree creating a deep crevice within the tree and eventually plunging a hole through its entirety.
Raph tried again....with a different tree this time as he had plunged a hole into the last one...oops. He formed hand signs to his feet and stepped upon the tree. He made it, he stood on the tree...well...for a few seconds before falling down upon his butt. He had succeed in standing on the tree without breaking it, but didn't apply ample amount of chakra in order for his body to hold while he was standing on the tree this time around.
In all things, trial and error, was the way towards true discovery. Like the sayings go: If first you don't succeed then try, try again and Third times; the charm. With that in mind, Raph stood up and dusted himself off and stepped towards the tree once more in the hopes that this was the last and final time he would have to do this. He formed hand signs applying chakra to the soles of his feet along the lines of the information he gathered from his first two failed attempts at this and tweaked it. He stepped out onto the tree and finally could stand upon the tree without falling or destroying the tree beneath him. He climbed up to the next branch in the tree as he would begin with his next training.
Raph, now, understood that things in battle could go not as planned. For times, when you find yourself on the defensive and have to dodge a lot of techniques and weapons to protect yourself, it was good to have skills that added to your advantage to turn the tide of battle. One of this tide turning skills was the aerial dodge. Low leveled for many people, but that much more the useful for those sticky situations. The best thing about this technique is that it didn't require the use of hand signs and only required the ability to redirect your flow of chakra.....sounds easy enough. Raphael jumped off of the branch and directed his chakra to his feet. At his current skill, he didn't have that great of chakra control and so this process was slower than normal for him as he touched the ground without as much of a thrust of chakra and a release of any kind.
He climbed back up the tree and tried once more. He begun to think that, if this technique only required the transference of chakra to his feet just as the tree climbing technique did, then he should be able to preform the tree climbing technique in the same manner as this one. He jumped off of the tree and redirected his chakra once more to his feet and outwards a little. The movement was a success, but not to the point of the distance it was suppose to be at or at the rate of chakra release needed to get to that distance.
Now, without the hand signs and with the understanding that many shinobi use the tree climbing technique like it was second nature and thus the hand signs were for the learning and understanding of the technique, then the constant performance was the training the development of the technique further as it was like with most technique around. He launched himself off of the tree and redirected his chakra, rapidly, to his feet and outwards causing him to move through the air over to the right for about 10 yrds.

The clones circled slowly now, patient to choose their mark. Korrin hoped he made them powerful and clever enough to face one on one for more than an instant. It'd be such a disappointing session if they all only provided as much challenge as the first three.
The first of the group stalked forward, but slowly, not with the gusto his predecessors. The clone reached near striking distance, but Korrin held his ground. The clone finally closed the gap, dropping into a leg sweep that only could reach Korrin's front foot. Korrin easily picked up his front foot and snapped out with a front kick. The clone anticipated and scrambled back the moment Korrin's foot left the ground. Korrin poised to strike forward, but it was at the moment he felt a sudden prickle in the back of his neck. He spun to his left in a twirling sidestep just in time to let a second clone soar right through where he was with a kunai drawn... (Tame Za Kyokudo Stage 2 2/5)
Korrin's eyes widened a tad. He didn't remember allowing the clones weapons...Regardless, suddenly another zipped in swiping a kunai right in front of Korrin. Korrin crisply slide back, his feet scarcely leaving ground to avoid the dagger by a hair's width. And from there the assault was on. The fourth clone joined the fray, all of them brandishing kunai swiping and jabbing away at their creator. Korrin was forced to solely dodge, bobbing and weaving, leaping and sliding to remain unscathed. Any counter-attack was rendered impossible without taking a kunai to a major artery. At a certain point, Korrin's vision was nearly useless, his only guide being his instincts, spacial awareness, and to a small extent his hearing as kunai whistled through the air. (Tame Za Kyokudo Stage 2 3/5)
At last, one of the clones made a fatal error: it grabbed Korrin's arm in an attempt to subdue him. At the instant of contact, Korrin grabbed the clone right back with just his hand and wrenched it to the left just in time to intercept another clone's kunai. The clone was punctured and dissipated in a puff of smoke. This gave the other three an instant of pause, enough for Korrin to grin wickedly. With only three assailants, the rapid attacks were not enough to occupy all of Korrin's efforts. Now every few strikes could be answered by a stray jab, backfist, or kick. Korrin weaved around a straight lunge of a kunai, dropped underneath another, and caught the final clone's tight swing with his bare hand and wasted no time throwing two lightning fast right cross punches, first to the nose to discombobulate and the second to the left ribs, Korrin's fist impacting a good three inches of a dent in the rib cage. And so that clone too disappeared. That left two. (Tame Za Kyokudo Stage 2 4/5)
Korrin wheeled around in time to deflect a slash by the clone's wrist, the swing quickly becoming overcommited. The clone's eyes bugged out as it lost its balance. But it didn't even have time to his the ground on its own. Korrin whipped his left leg up above the clone's head, hooking the back of its neck with his ankle, and smashed the clone into the ground himself. This left one last clone. The poor simple thing could only fathom one solution: charge and hope. But ultimately, this charge ended the same as all the others. Korrin slide to the right to easily dodge the lunging kunai and, just for fun, Korrin used some of the last of his chakra to execute a Rosutoai right into the clone's face. The chakra charged fist dissipated the clone in a final puff. (Tame Za Kyokudo Stage 2 5/5)
Korrin straightened into a normal standing stance, sweat now lightly coating his head and a bit of his body, adding to the constantly drizzling rain. As water ran over his eyes, Korrin slumped a bit and chuckled up at the rain. So long, so long its been since he trained, to feel the rush of combat and give himself to the shinobi way. The world was so different now, so much smaller than when he first began. Thousands had dwindled to hundreds, and finally hundred to a mere dozen or so it seemed. But these warriors still stood tall. And Korrin had to finally admit it: he wanted to stand with them. So what if he was old? So what if he might be just past his prime? It didn't mean he was dead. Not yet. Korrin hadn't lived this long to kill himself with apathy.
Raphael created a lightning clone for his next segment of skills to learn that would improve upon his ninja way of life. This next two skills he was about to partake in the training of, would make stealth and tactics that more the easier. He had wished he had learned this back three years ago when fighting his first sensei who held the Rinnegan eyes. It was hard to fight with him with that power behind him. He started with a building of speed and endurance with three laps around the training grounds perimeter.
Next, came the disappearing act of Shadow Bushin Dance that he was attempting to learn. He would start with taking a crouching stance and focus chakra to the soles of his feet. In doing this, this build up of chakra would propel outwards as Raphe would attempt to vanish from his opponents' view. Useful in some situations, useless against doujutsu users and does that can sense chakra, but he had something for that later. He looked upon his clone as he would take a step and then vanish with the next.
Raphael took up residence in a tree not far from his clones, using the natural cover of the leaves and the branches to watch outwards onto his clone who stood on high alert. He would form hand signs from this spot as he would create clone after clone to appear and attempt an attack upon the unsuspecting clone. After a few illusion clones, Raphael moved onto the next skill.
This next one was focus on manipulation of chakra from a distance towards a target kind of like how genijutsu worked, except this was a ninjutsu skill. He formed the necessary hand signs and focused his chakra to his lips. The first step of this being that he needed to transfer the chakra within himself from his mouth and over the wind towards his target's ears. This was nature manipulation that fell along the lines of using the environment to your advantage. Here in the Rain Village, there was a weapon style that teaches one to go even further than that and use the manipulation of nature around you to your advantage, but only does that fell close to mastery over the art could do that level of nature manipulation. His first attempt fell on death ears...literally. It did nothing nor did the clone look discombobulated in the least.
He attempted again, but with more focus this time. He formed the necessary hand signs and then focused chakra to his lips and then over the wind towards his clone reaching his ears. It didn't seem to take once again.
Moving onwards with this technique yet again. Raphe formed hand signs and focused chakra to his lips. From here, he blew the chakra from his lips and onto the air as it would carry to the clone's ears just had he would begin to hear the sounds of nature call out to him. Raphael dispelled the clone and jumped from the tree.

Michael would walk into the training grounds with Eshcher and proceed to his little area in the back, the trees still showing some scorch marks from his training three years ago. As he waited he would smile as he pulled a blank card from his inside coat pocket, as he studied his teammate's actions. The card flipped between his fingers as he began to ask his questions.
"So I do have some questions for you, and in return any questions you have for me I will answer each one in full honesty. First off what kind of fighter are you? A range or a close up melee kind of strategy. Also what clan and bloodline are you? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just trying to ascertain our teams strengths and weaknesses and compinsate for them.
As he waited for the answers and questions to be asked. He would run many different strategies through his head to knock any one weakness out of the water and bolster their strengths. No way would he let his team fail in any combat situations, especially after what happened two years ago.

"The world is fragile, just like the minds of men and can be easily changed."
Escher had been following Michael from the office. He seemed to be deep in though on the whole way to the grounds. When they arrived Michael lead him to the back of the training grounds. Once there he was then bombarded with questions. Escher took a moment to process all the information and then decided to answer. "Wouldn't it be easier to fight me to find out?" He said with a smirk. "In any case, I specialize in CQC and mid-range attacks. I have no clan but my bloodline is a bit confusing. I should be a Hyouton but something in my blood gave me this." He pointed at his eyes, they were purple with a wavy appearence. "I have what is called the Rinnegan." With that, he was finished with his introduction. "I don't have to ask you anything. I rather just find out by fighting you."
Michael would not be surprised by the rinnegan and would smile at his teammate before nodding and inscribing the info on his card. After that he would replace it with the others in his inside coat pocket before he would begin speaking.
"A spar would actually be nice as I need to test out my combat skills. It has been quite some time. So shall we begin my friend? Now was the time to put his skills to the test and he would not back down.

A shadow dashes under the water of a nearby lake, Zuei bursts from the liquid flipping to a stance. His blue hair flows losely, a deep blue shark eye peering menacingly. Walking with hands in pockets a grin begins to spread across his face. Muttering "training ground...I've spilt blood here."
"The world is fragile, just like the minds of men and can be easily changed."
Escher smiled as Michael agreed to his spar. This fight would be a test for the both of them and that is just the way Escher liked it. It noted the last part of Michaels statement. "Friend huh? Well you'd be the first." At the same time he was speaking, he had produced two rods, both about two and a half feet long. He had them firmly as he dashed towards Michael. When was within striking range, Escher pivoted his foot and attempted to swing horizontally towards Michael left side. 'Let's see how good your eyes really are.' As that thought raced around inside Eschers head, the whole time he had a smile on his face and could not wait to see this fight get started and follow it through to the end.

Michael Uzumaki-Uchiha
As Escher talked Michael saw the rods slide down from his sleeves thanks to his sharingan. As he watched his opponents muscles tense up to pounce Michael was already gone thanks to the one sealed jutsu he used, lightning instantaneous. He would appear at the top of a tree and begin quickly analyzing the situation. 'Ok so he is definitely a close quarters combatant and me a ranged one...s**t this will not be easy. I'll have to end this quickly.' He would start weaving handsigns to begin a new jutsu, and after a few moments a large beam of lightning would descend upon his opponent, the lightning beam technique. All this while keeping his blood red eyes on his opponent.

"The world is fragile, just like the minds of men and can be easily changed."
As Escher missed, he looked up. The same way Michael read his movements Escher was able to read his chakra movements. He did not know how, but he knew his opponent had moved to a different location by way of his Rinnegan. He could see that the chakra in air above him had moved and was displaced by the chakra coming from Michael. He could also see Michael form chakra as he weaved seals. Escher followed suit and did the same, dropping his rods at the same time. As the beam was fired, Escher finished his seals as well, and when he did he turned into a bolt of lightning, moving in the direction he had ran from, dodging the lightning beam in the process. He hit a tree that he been behind him and redirected his trajectory towards Michael who was in a tree. If Escher passed through him, it could possibly leave Michael paralyzed for a very short amount of time. But that was the best case scenario for Escher, and on top of that it was highly likely not to happen. At worst, Michael would feel a shock running through him.

•••• Skills Used: Raikou Henge no Jutsu (Lightning Transformation Technique) Description: This technique, while being a branch of Henge no Jutsu, allows the user to transform in a way they never dreamed of. When performing this skill, the user transforms into an extremely quick 'strand' of lightning. In this quick state, nothing is done slowly - everything is in a rush for the user. However, this strand of lightning is incapable of changing directions on its own. It can only change directions by bouncing off another object, such as a tree or a boulder, but the user is capable of bouncing off in any angle they wish to. It is not recommended using this technique in a field with little objects to bounce off of. The Henge automatically dissipates when the user makes contact with a living target. Being in a state similar to lightning, the user plunges completely into their target, and ends up in their physical state on the other side of their opponent. In addition to giving the target a painful electrical shock, this skill may or may not paralyze their opponent. Because of the fast speeds associated with this skill, the user will feel dizzy, confused, and often nauseous for some time afterwards. Note: This technique can be used in conjunction with other jutsu, such as the Call of Lightning Technique, or the Lightning Clone Technique, to confuse the opponent. However, no skills can be used in this state. It cannot be used to flee. (D-Rank) •••• Skills In Current Use:

Hearing the sound lof lightning Zuei dashes in the direction making his way on top of a nearby tree branch to watch the Sparring session between Escher and Micheal. The Genin laughs clapping his hands How fun... sitting down with his legs hanging he watches intently.
"For out of the ground we were taken for the dust we are...."
Kaijuu arrived at the training grounds skidding to a stop far off from the others. He could sense his two squadmates fighting and for a moment he could feel the blood lust he tries to suppress beginning to bubble over. He shook his head turning his gaze to the myriad of scrolls at his feet, he had grabbed the techniques of his clan, the techniques of his bloodline, and the two taijutsus he had some familiarity with. He couldn't help but be a bit excited, his blood lust receding now as his mind was focused. Living in the woods had its advantages. Kaijuu was able to train his mind he had no way or learning jutsu but self control was something he could do and this was where those years of seclusion would pay off. Kaijuu would focus as suddenly everything around him would become dull. He could not think of them now, he could not focus on his comrades or the others in the training ground. He had to focus on the task at hand. Failing to do so could result in him losing control and perhaps by an extension the injury of even death of those around. Kaijuu had power, but the discipline he spent years attaining was still not perfect and it wasn't something he could let slip now. He unrolled the scrolls of his clan deciding he would begin there. Focusing on his clan and then moving from there deciding to get the most blood thirsty part out of the way with first. "Axe blade is the first technique and something that is definitely useful" He said looking up from the scroll and looking upon a sole tree before him that would unfortunately be completely destroyed by the end of this training session.
Kaijuu looked upon the tree and smirked as he drew back his left arm and focused chakra into it. Upon doing so he could feel his arm changing but oddly it was not heavier. He swung and watched as a hulking purple axe crushed through the tree cutting it clean in two. He admired what he did for a second before inspecting what it was his arm had become. "It's fleshy, and purple but hard as steel. This is quite impressive." He said with a sigh nodding softly to himself pleased with the technique while intently keeping himself calmed so that he could prevent from losing control. The more he used these techniques the closer he toed the line between control and pure insanity. He shook his arm a bit at the technique dispelled and his arm returned to normal.
"On to the next" He said gazing down at the scroll and running his finger over the next technique in the list. "Interesting." He muttered seeing that the next technique was a utility one that would come in handy but not be immediately useful in an offensive or defensive way. "No matter. I must master all these techniques to better master my own ability" Kaijuu said once again taking a breath to calm and center himself. It was annoying to do this but necessary in order to prevent from losing control.
Kaijuu began to build up chakra and watched smirking as a tail, fangs, and claws all formed on his body. His canines getting larger and longer, his hands and feet becoming the dark purple the axe was and growing long sharp claws that were capable of shredding things apart. The tail was long and the point sharp as well being well able to pierce through flesh and wood with ease. Pleased with the result Kaijuu admired himself looking upon it with joy and watching happily as he dug them into the ground seeing how easily they shredded the dirt before him. It was cool he had to admit. A smirk found it's way across his lips happy with what he had done but oddly craving more.
He returned his attention to the scroll and saw the next technique for him to learn. It was odd finally having access to these. He had pretty much been sheltered the entirety of his life. Not being allowed to train or learn new techniques only being able to survive. It was this sense of survival though that kept Kaijuu going, this desire to remain alive that prevented him from losing control sooner. He didn't wish to attack or kill anyone but to simply survive. Though now because of him becoming a shinobi he needed this power, this strength. To prevent the destruction of the village, the place he called home. The animals he lived with had raised him, and protected him. Helping him hide. If the village was destroyed then the shinobi would go to the forests and undoubtably use the forest for survival and in turn kill those who raised him. It was this desire that motivated Kaijuu and the reason for him doing all this work to become strong.
Kaijuu nodded allowed his hands to return to normal watching as the normal pigment of his skin returned and with it his feet and tail returning to normal as well. "Only two remain. It shouldn't be too hard to accomplish them." Kaijuu said with a soft sigh growing a bit tired of the training and his stamina running a bit low, though he could not falter. His goals were not reached. His limits remained unsurpassed, this to Kaijuu was unacceptable. He had to become strong he could not stop here. He had to continue. He must continue pushing until he stood at the top.
"Transformation: Spear C" Kaijuu said softly focusing chakra, beginning to build and mold the chakra until finally it was suitable for use. He released the chakra watching as a seven foot spear shot from his chest piercing into the fallen tree and burying itself well within the wood. Kaijuu watched looking down and seeing as something was now protruding from him. "Not only can I control the length but also where it comes from? How useful" Kaijuu nodded softly please with the technique as he withdrew the spear from the tree and allowed it to sink back into his chest.
"On to the final technique from my clan. At least that I will learn" He said softly moving up to a B ranked technique. He was pleased with his progress tackling something advanced like this would help him and in turn help the village. He saw the chain of progression knowing that by the property of transitivity he must grow stronger to protect what it is he loved. He built up the chakra and stared at the broken husk of the tree before him. "Now to annihilate this" Kaijuu said with a soft sight looking upon his target as chakra began to build within him. He outstretched his left arm and watched as a hole formed in his palm. He flexed his arm releasing the built up chakra. "Chakra Cannon" He said was suddenly a wide and powerful blast erupted from his hand obliterating the tree that was before him destroying it, almost completely disintegrating any remains of the tree. He stood watching silently as nothing but ash was left.
"On to my bloodline." Kaijuu said breathing deep and slowly trying to calm himself down. Releasing techniques like this were taxing on Kaijuu and in turn taxing on his mental state. "On to Bakuton." Kaijuu said with a smirk the other side of his destructive power. He looked upon the scroll unrolling what was his bakuton scroll and rolling up the Jyuugo one. He read the first technique nodding softly at how easy it was. Though he figured it must start somewhere. He built up some chakra into his fist and then released it while hitting the ground. "Explosion Release: Exploding Palm" He said softly as his fist put a solid dent into the earth, nothing frightful or amazing but still useful.
"Explosion Release: Explosive Armor" Kaijuu said while building up chakra into his body. He knew that this technique was defensive something extremely useful for a taijutsu user. He didn't really have anything defensive and the idea of having a second skin that is explosive and reactive on taking hits that's something that Kaijuu was interested in and something that would be very useful and come in quite handy in the future. He continued to build up the chakra knowing that to test it he would need something to hit him so he walked over to another tree. He built up the chakra and released it allowing the chakra to fill and coat his body filling his pores. He felt different, warm and protected it was an odd but seemingly comforting feeling as well. "How wonderful.' Kaijuu said with a smirk, he felt enveloped by warmth. He had heard about this experience before but had never been able to receive it. It was arguably one of the greatest things he had experienced. This feeling it was indescribable. He felt... safe. Like he didn't have to run or fight, like nothing mattered just the warmth that surrounded him.
After shaking this moment off for a second he returned his focus to the task at hand. It was time to test this technique. He looked at the tree and once again his hand changed to an axe. He sliced the tree in half and then turned so that the tree was falling on him. He closed his eyes and returned his attention upward allowing the tree to fall without obstruction. The moment contact was made his skin glowed and suddenly the tree exploded away rocketing off him and away safely. Kaijuu smirked pleased with the effectiveness. "I supposed that will suffice for now." Kaijuu said softly pleased with his progress deciding now was a good time to take a break.
Kaijuu sighed seeing his two comrades were busy fighting. It appeared they were just having a friendly spar but still Kaijuu wasn't really in the mood to spar so he sighed and just decided he would watch. This was of no concern to Kaijuu but he supposed if it was his teammates he may as well watch.
....and to the dust we shall return."
