Due to lack of being able to see well, I'ma type up a small thing.
This is a medium sized camp near the water, it has a total of nine bandits, including the bandit boss. Two are guarding the gates from the outside, two are in watch towers, and the rest are within the camp resting.

Being that this was another war-type scenario, Lucifer's mind was already primed and ready to go when they got into the area. 'First step should be to investigate the power of their gate guards. And their lookouts...just how strong are they?' It would require careful movements from the entire group in order to assess their foes without being detected. He knew--somehow--in the back of his mind that this would be a far-fetched dream. Sensor ninja were somewhat prevalent within the Barbarians, and It was likely that most camps had at least one of them at their disposal. Keeping this in mind, he made doubly sure not to expend any more chakra than was necessary to simply leap silently between the tree branches, daring to edge just a little closer to get into view of their adversaries. What he noticed looked promising. The shinobi in the stationed watchtowers weren't using dojutsu to scan their surroundings; they were using binoculars.
'Perhaps we're far enough out...the main forces aren't focused on the outer edges of the barbarian lands.' A cheeky grin played across Lucifer's face as he looked onward, taking note of the gate guards. It didn't appear that they'd been noticed quite yet, but he would wait to see how his comrades responded before proceeding further.
Walking casually through the woods leading up to the largeish barbarian camp, Nobuyuki kept one hand stuffed in his pocket. He noticed Lucifer carefully walking around, attempting to scout out the area before they entered. If this was a normal situation he would be doing the same thing, but given that he could sense the muscle movements within the camp, it was rather obvious to him that there was very few people in it. Which meant that just going all out from the beginning would allow them to easily dispatch some of the weaker barbarians. Stepping up to stand next to Lucifer the Uzukage patted the boy on the shoulder before speaking in a hushed tone."I'm going to take care of the two gate guards, follow me in with Sumiko so we can have a triangle formation inside the camp. Keep an eye out for any stray Barbarians that are attempting to make it back to the camp while I do this. If you find any then kill them and hide their bodies." With that said he took his hand from his pocket, channeling his nen throughout his body for a moment before a large aura of Nen appeared around him, taking the shape of a dragon coiling around him before spreading out into a large blue field of energy.
Cracking his neck the male dissapeared from his spot, the ground beneath him disintegrating as he took off. He was fast enough thankfully that he arrived at the gates well before the guards could notice his approach. One of the benefits of training as much as he did he supposed. The moment he neared the barbarians he burst into action; his body tensing in preparation for his attack. He began it with a simple spinning backhand to the left gate guard, the Kinetic energy swirling around his arm like a deadly explosion ready to burst forth. If his fist connected the Kinetic energy would burst outwards from the back of his hand, traveling into the barbarians head; causing it to explode from the inside, the brain matter splattering against the wall behind it. Turning on his heel he shot towards the second guard, bringing his leg up to do a kick into the males midsection, aiming for the males spleen with his attack. Which much like the previous Barbarian; would cause his internal organs to rupture before exploding out of his side and part of his back if Nobuyuki's foot landed. With that done he would step back before delivering a powerful punch to the gate, easily crushing the material with his fist before jumping backwards to give him some distance from whatever might be within.

Techniques Used: • Nen Dragon S - boosted to SS-rank The Nen Dragon is a transformation for the Midnight Brawler. It will appear as a field of white-blue energy around them, and it will offer them several abilities. It will allow them to fly, it will allow them the ability to perceive chakra as energy (decipher elements and uncover weaknesses), it will allow them to apply kinetic energy through their punches and kicks (massively increasing damage) and will also allow them to more deeply connect to Senjutsu, sensing hostile energy as well as the location of far-off people (detect escaping and concealing enemies, see through genjutsu meaning you know you're in one; doesn't mean you can Kai out). This lasts for seven posts and can be re-applied five posts after it's finished. Adds two light chasers. •
Stats • Sworn Foe: • Speed: 14 • Strength: 14
Passives • [BLOODLINE] NEN Nen is a form of natural energy, or Senjutsu. It scales with rank, just like chakra. Essentially, it is chakra that is amplified by the surrounding area and it vacuums chakra from Sworn Foes. Gennin - 150 Nen Chuunin - 200 Nen Jounin - 250 Nen Sannin - 300 Nen Kage - 400 Nen
By deciding a Sworn Foe, you may absorb up to 20% of the chakra used by them in a battle. So, if they were to use 100 Chakra in a post, you will siphon 20 of that. You may switch Sworn Foes twice in one battle, and three times once you hit S rank. Nen appears as white-gold energy. It is visible when absorbing enemy energy or using Nen-based techniques (specific techniques within the bloodline). Daiten and Nen are both considered "chakra"; but NE from Sage Mode is not. • [BLOODLINE] NEN SENSE Midnight brawlers are capable of using their senjutsu energy to detect muscle movements, swelling chakra, and other such things generally seen from high level dojutsu. They can also detect pressure points and organs within someone's body, making their punches absurdly lethal. • [BLOODLINE] While battling your Sworn Foe (attacking, defending, dodging, etc) you have a +2/+2 base to both stats • [BLOODLINE] Your rank damage reduction is one rank stronger than usual; this makes you quite a tank at higher ranks, with most attacks unable to hurt you. • [CLASS] PHYSICAL TOUGHNESS -- The Taijutsu class not only teaches you to ignore pain, but can also make you immune to damage from weak attacks, based on your rank, making you almost immune to damage 2 ranks below you:
Chuunin taijutsu classmen are immune to academy Jutsu damage Jounin taijutsu classmen are immune to Genin jutsu damage Sannin taijutsu classmen are immune to Chuunin jutsu damage Kage taijutsu classmen are immune to Jounin jutsu damage
Anything lower than that rank also applies.

As Nobuyuki charged forward, Sumiko followed suit, trailing slightly behind. After being cramped up in the village for so long, it felt good to feel the wind rushing through her hair and to hear its whistle in her ears. As the faster of the pair, Nobuyuki reached the gate guards first. He caught them by surprise, but with his overly macho display of power, he had now alerted the entire camp to their presence. Sumiko arrived behind Nobuyuki as he finished her jump backwards. Her palm glowed as she pressed it against his back, causing a faint light to envelop him for a moment before fading.

Seeing as though a good third of the camp [3] was currently resting, the outside quarrel did little more than rouse them from their slumber initially, meaning that a small part of their forces would be a little later to the party than anticipated. This meant that they would have a little bit more time to finish off the stragglers before a chunk of the enemies arrived.
There was--however--one other problem. The first shinobi was taken well enough off guard. The blow to his skull--enhanced with the Nen Dragon technique--was enough to sent him flying into the wall, his head smashing against it, killing him near-instantaneously. This would be the only 'easy' kill they would receive. With eight enemies remaining, that alone was an intimidating prospect. His next opponent--a Namida with training as a Samurai--saw the attack happen with increased perception, giving him enough time to ready a massive pool of Kyuuyou chakra in order to intercept the Nen Dragon technique when the kick came flying at him. Blocking with his blade, the Kyuuyou-infused steel would leak into Nobuyuki's technique, dismantling it from the inside out, canceling his use of the Nen Dragon ability outright. Afterwards, the force from Nobuyuki's kick should have sent him flying. However, as soon as the shinobi would have taken flight, his movements seemed to stop by some kind of invisible force. He lunged forward just as soon as the kick had ended, swinging with a three foot edge of kyuuyou added to his blade, giving a total swing radius of six feet, giving more than enough room to slash Sumiko and Nobu alike were his somewhat unexpected counter-attack successful. Due to the strange force that suspended him midair, it wasn't so much muscle movements that controlled his body...it was almost like an invisible puppeteer was pulling the strings.
The two shinobi from the watch towers were also able to spring into action to assist their comrade...they used binoculars before, so what kind of ninja would they be? One of them would aim their palm directly at Lucfier's position, and...
The other would begin concentrating a fairly large amount of flame chakra into their palms, leaping from the watch tower before unleashing a powerful wave of flames--the Fire Lily Technique, boosted to S-rank in power--upon Nobuyuki and Sumiko both. But...something was off here...something was unusual.
Summary: -- Nen Dragon negated, you both have to dodge an S-rank wave of fire from above and a horizontal sword slash from the front, imbued with A-rank Kyuuyou.

'And so the heathen and the fool charge forward...how quaint.' Lucifer could only chuckle as he watched the events unfold, drawing his blade and preparing to step into the action. His feet crunched into the branch of the tree he was standing on, but he wasn't able to move before he felt a strange energy. 'I've felt this energy before, somewhere....' He mused upon it for a moment before he reached the realization. 'Wait, this is...!' He quickly spun around to gain a complete view of his surroundings, his blade raising in front of him to just barely intercept a fist flying at him with ridiculous strength. This was the same energy that Nobuyuki used. Lucifer's opponent was a Midnight Affair. And he was now this particular foe's sworn enemy. "But that doesn't make sense." The force from the fist sent him flying to the right, further away from Nobuyuki, Sumiko, and the camp in general. It was obvious that his opponent's strength outclassed his, but what about their speed? It was obvious enough that he was marked as their Sworn Foe; the basic explanation from Nobuyuki let him know that he was now at somewhat of a disadvantage against this foe. "If you could detect our movements, why didn't you warn the gate patrols? Why did you allow one of your allies to die?" After hearing the question, the Barbarian only smiled; the answer was obvious enough anyway. To sacrifice one life to put the entire enemy's assaulting force off guard was a fair trade in any scenario.
Lucifer would soon find that he was closer to his opponent when it came to speed, for sure. As they traded strikes amidst the trees, he found that it wasn't overly difficult to react to his opponent's strikes, but the power behind them was vicious...unrelenting. With his perception, he could tell that the opponent was preparing was going to be a straight punch aimed at his chest. Raising his sword to block once again--and preparing to take the brunt of the kinetic energy to send him backward--he was prepared as the fist approached. But the impact wasn't there. It was as though he'd gotten hit with a feather.
He looked down, further, and saw a fist flying at him with impressive speed, even with his slow-motion perception. 'But...how did his fist get there? It was just at my chest...?' It took all the speed in his body to move the blade into a blocking position The uppercut landed solidly against the edge of his Genjumin, the blunt force slamming the blunt end of the blade into his chin. Fortunately, he was strong enough to resist broken bones, but he was sent flying from the force of the strike. 'Punches that can fool my ability to perceive them...? What kind of ability is that?' He was still midair when his opponent ported to him again. Directly above him, Lucifer saw this as his only chance. Using the illusionary skill provided to him from The Elegance, he swung diagonally, attempting a deep slice from the man's right shoulder to left hip. The ability from the elegance allowed him to project a fake version of himself through his opponent, rendering the original temporarily invisible.
Not once in his entire life had anyone seen through this attack. The Elegance was his most absolute of skills. When this man caught his Genjumin, he thought it was just a joke. That there was no possible ******** way that someone just caught his blade mid swing. And yet, it rested cleanly in the palm of his unclosed right hand, with no damage at all. "Sorry, kid, but this is a playground for grown-ups." He saw the axe kick coming, his perception allowed it. But all his body was fast enough to do was raise his arms--and Genjumin, since this opponent seemed to be toying with him enough to let him keep his weapon--in defense, creating a three-layered guard. The kick slammed into his Genjumin, heavily bruising his left arm, and sent Lucifer flying back down into the treeline, where the chase continued out of sight from Sumiko and Nobuyuki.

Nobuyuki║Yamana║Uzukage║Yamana Dynasty
Nobuyuki's single eye focused on the remaining Barbarian from his surprise attack, watching as the male channeled energy into his blade before attacking both him and Sumiko. It was a surprisingly strong technique, seeing as it was able to negate his Nen dragon easily. However looking upwards at the Ninja who was channeling to fire off a wave of burning energy the Uzukage marked him as his Sworn foe, feeling the power of his energy surging throughout his body before turning to look at the Ninja in front of him again. The blade approached him swiftly, however thankfully he was able to easily keep up with it due to his training. Replacing himself for his Elegance clone the male appeared behind his opponent, stepping sturdily on the ground before bringing his foot up with a rough kick to the side of the males temple. If it landed it would most likely crack the side of his skull rather painfully, which would then allow him to connect with his follow up attack, which consisted of bringing his foot down to slam into the males shoulder. He would then use the force generated from this to flip his body slightly, allowing him to bring his remaining leg down into a powerful axe kick into the males other shoulder. With that done he would use the "Aerial Dodge" technique to flip himself to land on his feet, allowing him to react should the male attack again. However as he was doing all of these fancy moves, Nobuyuki was carefully placing Caltrops and small pieces of wire, which were being brought down to connect to his hand; nearly invisible to the naked eye. With string in hand he bolted towards Sumiko, grasping the back of her shirt before taking off towards the woods in hopes of covering enough ground to dodge the attack. However he was prepared with an armor-like construct behind them made of Nen."--"--

Sumiko, more than happy to come along for a ride, was dragged by Nobuyuki a short distance from the gate, out of range of the fire, and the sword swipe. She turned her head side to side, searching for Lucifer, but to no avail. He seemed to have been separated from the group by one of the guards. Before they could aid him, they had to deal with a pair of their own. The moment the pair stopped, Sumiko created a box in her mind, selecting the area directly in front and to either side of her as her Sanctuary. Without turning her head, she spoke to Nobuyuki. The next time they attack us, pick one, and I'll try and go for the other. We need to take these guys down quick and then track down Lucifer.

As Nobuyuki's kick would appear to come into contact with his foe's temple, he would find--similarly to how his foe's blade passed through the elegance clone--his foot went straight through the image of his foe. They both were skilled practitioners of the Elegance, it seemed. Image appeared to land on the caltrops, but immediately burst into movement towards the pair. The real Samurai was instead, circling them, moving just as quickly as Nobuyuki to their right, about thirty feet away. He would focus a sphere of energy in between his pointer and index fingers before throwing it powerfully into Nobuyuki and Sumiko's path. As soon as it contacted the ground in front of them, it would explode in a thirty foot radius. If they were caught within this explosion of Kyuuyou, not only would they be drained of 30 energy, they would also suffer extensive damage.
As for their other friend...the second opponent was planning something much more nefarious. Flying through seals as they seemed to float through the air, the fire-wielding foe then spit something from their mouth that looked slick and shiny. The liquid shot towards the pair at rapid speeds, but their adversary didn't appear to be done. Once they were completely finished spitting the liquid, they merely snapped their fingers as the trees above the two started to become coated in this substance. And suddenly, there was fire.
Fire everywhere. A quick use of the oil cannon technique created a high speed, volatile, and flaming projectile when used in tandem with the Cinder technique. It would explode upon impact with the trees, forcing another quick reaction from the two if they wanted to avoid a fiery death after having their chakra drained. How would they respond to this multi-directional strike?
(Techs; Oil Cannon technique, Cinder technique, Kyuuyou thing that I forgot the name of.)
[Summ; Samurai is to your right, throwing a mass of kyuuyou at you. It explodes in a thirty meter radius. If it does, you lose 30 chakra.
Fire b***h is above, used Oil Cannon, then ignited it with cinder. Firebomb of death.]
Reinforcements 1/2
Like his allies, Lucifer was forced to mostly play on the defensive. His foe was skilled at mixing seriously convincing fakes in with his actual punches, forcing the Guru to choose with the most elaborate care what strikes he chose to block. He would need to go on the offensive soon in order to change the rhythm of battle back into his favor. In addition to his blocks, he would alternate with weaving motions in order to dodge the multiple punches flying at him at once. If he couldn't block them all...might as well dodge some as well to make up for the deficit. 'Against an opponent who uses feints and rapid punching to beat an opponent into submission...how do I compete with something like that?' The short moment he'd taken to reflect was a mistake; that one moment he lost concentration gave his opponent the chance he needed. Instead of punching again, he threw two feints at once, with Lucifer weaving out of one and attempting to block the other. When no impact came, he was a little confused, as his opponent appeared to be right in front of him punching.
A careful, calculated use of the Phantom Mirage. With superior speed, his foe had used Lucifer's lack of chakra sensing against him. Feeling those ridiculously toned arms grapple him was almost like being crushed in a blunt Iron Maiden. With a cry of pain, Lucifer felt helpless as he was thrown into the air like a javelin, flying at ridiculous speeds towards a location he was sure to end up at. Final Toss. But unlike other Midnight Affair, this particular Barbarian knew the full power of his skill well. No matter what they ran into, they would end up at their destination. Even if that meant running into fists thousands of times on the way. His opponent teleported to him using the sworn foe's marking, now flying with him in his ascent. From there, a barrage of fists started flying at Lucifer with much more speed and intensity than before. It was all he could do to block them, as dodging was little more than a dream now. 'How can I beat a foe that's faster and stronger than I am? His fists are like lightning...!' An idea crossed his mind, praise the gods.
The Barbarian was a little surprised to see blood erupting from the wounds Lucifer had sustained during their battle. But that was little more than a sideshow to the real problem. With a use of Gattsu Innervate, Lucifer had created a total of eight blades of blood around him. Not only capable of blocking the man's attacks, but also able to respond with their own. Once Lucifer decided to engage an infight with his opponent, it quickly became clear who the superior one was at close range. His barrage of bloody blades quickly slashed into his opponent, forcing him to make a hasty beeline into the trees after sustaining quite a few slashes. Regardless, they were near the end of the range from Final Toss, now quickly descending from the sky. Lucifer congregated the blood from Gattsu Innervate in front of him.
All Sumiko and Nobu would be able to see--should they prove able to dodge their opponent's strikes--was a plume of dust and blood erupting from the ground about three hundred feet away.
Nobuyuki watched as his foot flung through the males temple, grunting to himself before feeling his left arm transform into the staple appearance of the Lightning Step's unmastered form. Grumbling to himself the male watched as the large blast of energy that destroyed his technique before when he used his Nen Dragon. Alongside that a large ball of Oil was fired that exploded into a large wave of Oil nearly two-hundred feet in radius. Digging his now demonic looking hand into the ground he stopped their momentum instantly, making sure to compensate for the speed that Sumiko would feel by tensing his arm slightly to keep from giving her whiplash. With that done he dissapeared in a burst of speed, the ground beneath him erupting in a shower of dirt as he sprinted to the left, going as fast as he good; easily clearing the two techniques radius thankfully. With that done he spun on his heel to gain momentum before tossing Sumiko through the treeline to the left. With that done he instantly appeared near the flying enemy that used the Oil technique. Channeling chakra into his foot he burst forward, using the Aerial Dodge to bring him closer to her. The moment he reached near her a large spiral burst outwards from Nobuyuki, which if she didn't manage to dodge would cause a Nen clone to immediately grab her, paralyzing her when it's hand connected with her. With that done it would wind up before throwing her towards the ground, plummeting at a nearly unstoppable speed. Which if she couldn't dodge would cause her to collide with the earth below, shockwaving outwards whilst most likely crushing all of her bones to dust. With that done he would immediately teleport back to his starting location using Soul Chaser, his eyes locked onto the energy canceling Barbarian. "--"--

╘ Sumiko Kamachi ╬ Taijutsu ╬ Walkers of Heaven ╬ Chuunin ╛ Mood ⊁ Waiting for the gameyness Thoughts ⊁ Namigay Current Theme ⊁ Valravn - Kelling
After recovering from yet again being grabbed unceremoniously by Nobuyuki, Sumiko saw him jumping up to attack the ninjutsu user who was targeting them from above. That meant that she at least needed to keep the one on the ground busy, just long enough for him to dispatch their foe who seemed to be flying in the sky for no apparent reason and was defying the laws of gravity, but that was a different issue. Taking in her surroundings, Sumiko reached into a pouch on her bag, throwing her arms in the air. Dozens of small caltrops would cover the forest floor. At the same time, Sumiko formed a single handseal, before casting out dozens of small, static lines across the battlefield. Instead of keeping the strings on her finger, she tied a number of them to either wrist. With her lines and traps in place, Sumiko went on the offensive. By now, the Namida user would realize that his combined assault had failed and that his counterpart was being destroyed. Skirting the edge of the large fire that was slowly enveloping the forest, Sumiko charged at Namida. As she reached him, it would seem as if she cloned herself 7 times, with the images appearing all around him. What followed was a vicious flurry of blows from multiple angles. Most of the attacks were fake and would pass right through him, but it would only take a handful of blows to cripple him. The first real blow was a chop to the throat, followed by a spinning heel kick to the temple. That would be followed by a sharp knee to the abdomen, and would be finished off by a hammer fist to the nerve cluster located by the kidney. Naturally though, no of these would land because Namida/Elegance.

Active Techs -• Judgement 20 Yin (A Rank) The powers that govern and judge a person over their lifetime, Kharma and Dharma, are called upon to immediately pass judgement on a single target. This appears in the form of a bright light emitted from the Walker's palm, that, you guessed it, travels at the speed of light (funny how light moves at the speed of light). Upon impact, depending on what the Walker has decided to judge the target on, they will instantly sustain a massive amount of damage (or be partially healed if friendly) and: - Judgement of Protection: For the next 3 posts, all damage the target takes is reduced by 1 rank.
- Seiteki Suji no Jutsu (Static Strings Technique) Description: This skill allows the user to create strings of electricity that can either act physically as strings, or as a medium that can send small shocks to an opponent. One of this technique's most useful features is its ability to allow the user to detect outsiders. When the strings are placed around an area, they are often fairly difficult to see, and unnoticed by the quick eye. But when the string is used to detect outsiders, they can adapt a quality that is string-like and electrical at the same time. This quality makes the static strings into a string of electricity, but with such a weak current that it is rarely noticed by Shinobi who accidentally walk through the strings. However, when this happens, the user at once will feel a small shock in their fingers, or where ever else they are keeping the strings intact. But unless the opponent felt the weak current as they walked through the strings, the opponent will usually never know the strings were there. But beyond its ability to detect outsiders, this skill can be used as a normal string when it is needed but none is around, or it can be used to create small shocks to other people. However, the shocks are only a little bit stronger than static electricity, and usually do no damage at all.

[Bloodline] - [CQC Masters] Just as with Samurai, years of training has honed the Walker's sense, slowing down CQC combat. This does not make the Walker faster in CQC, but instead slows time to 1/5 its normal speed, allowing them time to react to almost anything at close range. [Bloodline] - [The Beauty in All Things] Due to an all but unmatched understanding of chakra and its usage, Walker's have learned to literally see chakra formations in everything from people to trees. It does not allow them to see things that would normally be hidden from sight like an Assassin, but instead is mainly to tell if a jutsu is being used, and what the jutsu is capable of. [Bloodline] - [Balance] If a Walker finds himself relying to heavily on either Yin or Yang, he can even out the pools by adding them together and splitting them evenly. [Bloodline] - [Way of the Fist] Walkers can utilize two taijutsu styles at a time. They both cost nothing as well. The Walker can also benefit from the stats of both. [Bloodline] - [Ascension] Walkers have no soft cap, only the hard cap imposed by each rank. [Bloodline] - [Elevated] Walkers, oddly enough, can hover off the ground and move like this. They cannot fly, but instead as stated, hover a few feet off the ground. [Bloodline] - [This for That] The Walker can shift their own stats, moving 2 points from one stat to another. For example, if the Walker moves 1 point to speed, he loses 1 point of strength. This can be swapped in battle, but has a 2 post cooldown every time it is done. [Class] - [PHYSICAL TOUGHNESS] -- The Taijutsu class not only teaches you to ignore pain, but can also make you immune to damage from weak attacks, based on your rank, making you almost immune to damage 2 ranks below you:
Chuunin taijutsu classmen are immune to academy jutsu damage Jounin taijutsu classmen are immune to genin jutsu damage Sannin taijutsu classmen are immune to chuunin jutsu damage Kage taijutsu classmen are immune to jounin jutsu damage
The flame user did not possess an inherent form of chakra sensing, and was thusly caught off guard when Nobuyuki ported in. In an attempt to shield herself, she released a Hellfire Clap around her, hoping that her S-rank flames would repel the ensuing tornado of energy coming at her. However, Nobuyuki's technique was SS-rank, and when the clone grabbed hold of her, she knew she was in trouble. After pummeling her, she was thrown to the ground, dead upon impact.
As for the Namida...Sumiko's wall-breaking premonitions were correct. Kinda. Able to easily see her coming due to his superior speed and reflexes, the Namida would take a brief moment to close and reopen his eyes. As the veins popped from the sides of his eyeballs, and those crimson red hues stared into Sumiko's soul, she would immediately be alerted to the presence of the Neo Byakugan, a bloodline she'd likely never encountered before. This transcendent level of chakra perception allowed him to clearly see which one was the original, and which ones were fake, knowing full well that the clones hadn't replicated her chakra system. He weaved around even the real blows with ease, using a final twirling motion to aim a powerful palm strike into her side as he weaved around her hammer fist. It was at a speed completely transcending hers, and it would be interesting to see how she would dodge it with her body already in motion as it was. But how interesting it was, a weapon user attacking with an open fist...how unusual.
In the distance, the sounds of running would be completely audible; the reinforcements were arriving. But how strong would these reinforcements be? A total of five shinobi were approaching, and when they reached the gates, it was Nobu they locked on to. How would he respond in these short moments before they attacked?
[Death Count: 3/9]
The battle between Lucifer and his opponent was drawing to a bloody close. Multiple slash wounds on the Midnight Affair's body were now openly bleeding out, despite his efforts to repair them with the wind chaser's effects. His moments were slowing down, lagged from the loss of blood, and this gave Lucifer the advantage he needed. Weaving in and out of his blows--because the feints no longer came--he was able to easily use himself and his blades to continue slashing his slowed opponent. A tendon here, a ligament there...slowly but surely, he was slicing down the Barbarian's mobility to zero. And when one of his blades nicked the Achilles' tendon, that was the end for the foe's mobility. He dropped to one knee, only having time to look up at Lucifer once more before the Uzu shinobi's blade pierced his heart. No mercy in a war-filled world. Ultimately, the match would have ended much more quickly would Lucifer had been as advanced as his opponent, but the Niku's 'superiority' in close combat prevailed in the end. Now, it was time to find Sumiko and Nobu.
Darting from branch to branch, Lucifer would continue moving in the direction of the base until he saw Sumiko with her Seven-sided strike against one of the men they'd seen before. He was strong, too; it was clearly evident that he was faster than her. Moving quickly, Lucifer came in to join the fray against their physical adversary. it seemed he'd arrived just in time as well. He would swing his sword down towards the Hyuuga's extending hand, the time-slowing effect allowing to do so with the accuracy to cleanly slice the man's hand off if he didn't withdraw. Now, it was Lucifer and Sumiko versus this strange, overpowered foe.

Nobuyuki║Yamana║Uzukage║Yamana Dynasty
Cracking his neck loudly, the Uzukage turned his piercing amber gaze upon the gate of the camp, watching as five barbarians poured from within. They seemed relatively strong, much like the other Barbarians they'd fought. It would seem that it was a running theme that most of the enemies were much more diverse in their power and bloodline knowledge than his own Shinobi. Which was to be expected considering how much longer they'd been around, not daring to get themselves involved in the Clan wars that had waged among the Shinobi. Looking back at Lucifer and Sumiko to see if they were okay Nobuyuki grunted quietly, hoping they could handle their opponent long enough for him to finish off the five new enemies that had appeared. With that thought in mind the black-haired kage clenched his fists at his sides, channeling his nen carefully through his body in search of the ninth gate within him, the one that regulated the flow of Nen within his body. Finding it after a few seconds he flooded it with Nen, bursting it open with a grunt. Within a few seconds the results were obvious; as energy began to swirl around him before entering into his body, though this was unlike Nature chakra or Chakra itself, instead being every type of Nen in the world. As this happened a large purple-black colored aura appeared around him in a fifteen feet diameter, though he doubted the enemies knew what it was he could only hope they would put up even some semblance of a fight. With his new transformation complete he burst forward, the earth around him erupting and decaying in his field of Nen, the once bright green grass turning brown before withering away into nothingness. He approached the group in his usual burst of speed, his body already in motion as he began his attack on the first man he saw. Though it would most likely be unnecessary he launched his fist at the mans solar plexus, which if it hit would began to immediately decay his flesh; which would cause Nobuyuki to shoot towards his next enemy, launching a fast kick to his midsection. He would continue on doing this; assuming no one stopped him, launching various attacks at his enemies whilst also allowing his aura to reach them to begin to decay their flesh.

"When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death. Because when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time. Time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home."
Techniques Used: • The Ninth Gate SS The Ninth Gate is a technique that is activated by, essentially, unlocking the filter of Nen into your body. It allows all of the Nen surrounding you to be absorbed, not simply healthy Nen or good Nen. For the duration of five posts, you will gain a purple-black energy shroud as an outline to your flesh; you'll become impervious to SS rank damage for one technique used against you; however if you do block an SS-rank technique it will reduce the duration of the Ninth Gate by two posts, due to the amount of energy being expended to block it, and will also corrupt and age anything that you touch. Unfiltered Nen is similar to Natural Energy in that if an object cannot control it, or has not learned to, it will immediately transform and die. If you so much as contact an enemy in this state, the Nen will enter their body and destroy them. You will also be able to expand this purple-black field to cover you for up to fifteen feet in diameter. Anything that touches this field will begin to decay. Also, all enemies become "Sworn Enemies" for the duration of this technique, but this does not augment your stats, only Nen.
This ability can only be used once per fight, and has a month long cooldown. If it were to be used more than once within that month, the Midnight Brawler would die as soon as it ended. You cannot use any techniques while the Ninth Gate is active. You cannot break through SS rank barriers. This is best used against unsuspecting foes. Adds a light chaser, fire chaser, shadow chaser, and wind chaser. The Ninth gate cannot be used in the same post as Soul Chaser. •
Passives • [BLOODLINE] NEN Nen is a form of natural energy, or Senjutsu. It scales with rank, just like chakra. Essentially, it is chakra that is amplified by the surrounding area and it vaccuums chakra from Sworn Foes. Gennin - 150 Nen Chuunin - 200 Nen Jounin - 250 Nen Sannin - 300 Nen Kage - 400 Nen
By deciding a Sworn Foe, you may absorb up to 20% of the chakra used by them in a battle. So, if they were to use 100 Chakra in a post, you will siphon 20 of that. You may switch Sworn Foes twice in one battle, and three times once you hit S rank. Nen appears as white-gold energy. It is visible when absorbing enemy energy or using Nen-based techniques (specific techniques within the bloodline). Daiten and Nen are both considered "chakra"; but NE from Sage Mode is not. • [BLOODLINE] NEN SENSE Midnight brawlers are capable of using their senjutsu energy to detect muscle movements, swelling chakra, and other such things generally seen from high level dojutsu.

As the target dodged blow after blow, Sumiko was quickly coming to the realization that this shinobi was in a completely different league. Even with the element of surprise, her own attacks couldn't seem to hit home. That was when she noticed his eyes for the first time. Pale white, with veins tracing their way across his temples. A Hyuuga, master of close range combat. A single hit from someone that powerful would be enough to knock her out of the fight. Thankfully, it seemed she wasn't alone. Out of the corner of her eye, Sumiko saw Lucifer flying through the air in slow motion. At the same time, the Hyuuga/Namida was extending his palm towards the body she was currently in. Off to the side of the strike, one of her own phantom bodies was already reaching towards the man's wrist. Right as the strike reached her real body, Sumiko swapped places with her second body, whose hand was now firmly grasping the man's wrist. She only needed to hold it for a moment, just long enough for Lucifer to cut it off.

What makes a man live his life in disguise?
What makes a man hold the truth from public eyes . . . ?
What makes a man reach for the safest rock as he climbs...
And what makes a man take a sniff before he dines-?
I know the answer . . .
Fear.
Fear weakens us, Enemy.
No, it protects us, Kleine.
But not me. Because I have no fear. Nor weakness.
Yes.
Nor deformity.
Yes.
Nor a blemish.
Yes . . .
Nor a shred of impotence.
Yes.
The truth? My supremacy is the truth. And I have always known this, from the time of my conception until now. I was always better than the other children. They grew jealous of me and spiteful so I destroyed them; all their things, all their relationships, made them grow jealous of one another instead - turned them against one another, invoked the wrath of their parents. Then when I grew older the playing field grew more virulent . . . my own age group came into play and so I brought the stakes higher; passion turned into rage, a never dying flame. Hearts crushed and minds broken.
I HAVE NO FEAR.
I am led by the most powerful force of all: passion. And by correlation, ambition; need, desire. A greed for things that I want. A greed for power and glory - the status of a legend, the riches of a King. I will always be heralded as a God by the lesser men . . .
And let them always bow to me as the one to come and save them, their little savior, their PROPHET.
Nobuyuki's attack on the group would prove...surprisingly fruitful. Most of the advance forces were the higher-ranked ones in the hopes that they could repel any attackers to their fledgling shinobi. His assault managed to cripple three of the five weaker shinobi. By the time he got that far, though, the other two were able to slip far into the ground from Earth Military Movement. They were headed directly to the Byakugan user...their leader.
And that would become evident very quickly, as a barrier of purple, swirling energy began to quickly take shape around Lucifer, Sumiko, and the Hyuuga. Quickly, the pair would begin to feel their chakra being sapped from them at what would prove a very inconvenient rate. Lucifer was already tired from his battle with the Midnight Affair, so this was moreso of a major inconvenience. But he didn't have much time to think; Sumiko had gripped their opponent's wrist, allowing him a clean swipe to take the man's hand off. But something was off. Lucifer's lack of chakra sensing didn't allow him to sense it, but a ridiculous congregation of chakra suddenly built within the man's hand, and his eyes. The Saishin Byakugan roared to life, his physical attributes increasing with the emergence of a strange, ethereal energy around his body; the Hyuuga sage mode, Jiyunaru. Another quick burst of chakra from his hands would unleash an Air Palm technique at the ground between Sumiko's legs, pulling both of them in the Hyuuga's direction at the last moment. If Lucifer's strike continued, it would be only Sumiko that lost her hand. He had no choice but to shift his weight, leaping backwards and locking the muscles in his arm to stop the strike from hitting Sumiko.
The next exchange was near-instantaneous. Putting that monstrous chakra in his hand to use, the hyuuga quickly emitted a burst of chakra from the wrist that Sumiko was holding, forcing her hand free. He then blasted her away in the same instant with a use of the Mountain Crushing palm. This would send her flying into the wall of Kyuuyou, most likely unconscious or well-injured. Lucifer was still flying through the air, watching this scene unfold in somewhat slow-motion. The Hyuuga was so far beyond his realm of speed that his perception was no longer enough to stop the attacks coming at him.
"You took some of ours, boy...and now we're going to have you." The man spoke for the first time, a very deep, antagonizing voice permeating the air. The boy was powerless to the man's superior physicality, so when the palm strike flew into his stomach, the energy drain proved to be too much; he collapsed over the Hyuuga's shoulder, unconscious. It was at this time that Nobu would see the Kyuuyou barrier drop. With only Sumiko inside; Lucifer and the Hyuuga were long gone, his two Genin counterparts already well on their way with Earth Military movement.
This battle was over, and the victor was...questionable. But where had the man taken Lucifer?
