__ Kenshin entered a study room at the academy and sat down at a table with some scrolls. He had a Raiton scroll and opened up and learned one new technique by reading it over. He then put the Raiton scroll to the side and opened a Suiton scroll. Kenshin had learned earlier that he unlocked a new element. At least water would be useful to augment his lightning. [ 6 Jutsu Learned, +5 Academy Bonus ]
Kenshin then read through the water techniques and planned on mastering nine new techniques. As he read over the techniques he read the instructions for usage and the handseals required. He carefully read over the first half of techniques until he mastered the formulas. Kenshin then read the second half and mastered the technique set. [ 6 Jutsu Learned, +5 Academy Bonus ]
Personal Attributes • Piercing Accuracy | The clansman is more proficient than his fellow clan members at striking tenketsu. One's gentle fist application allows them to reduce 1.5 times the amount of chakra spent in a jyuken strike instead of 1.25. For example, if one spends 100 chakra on a gentle fist technique, the attack robs the target of 150 instead of the 125 normal clansmen would reduce. • Purest Lineage | The clansman's thoroughbred lineage allows them access to the Byakugan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. In addition, should they unlock the Tenseigan, they may have 50% less reserves to maintain it than other clan members and may also activate the Tenseigan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. • Physical Prowess | The Hyuuga gains a slight increase to reflex OR speed per body rank. This totals in a supreme increase for one or a moderate increase for both at S-Rank. In addition, the user gains a single custom slot to be used exclusively for the gentle fist style and one taijutsu slot. • Armory of Justice | Kenshin receives one free custom weapon. • Thundering Justice | Lightning based techniques used by the Hatake are granted a concussive blast in the form of a sonic boom upon impact.

Nuibari Attributes • Infinite Needles | While Nuibari functions perfectly fine as a long, thin blade that sits between a Jian and a Foil. It's comprised of infinite, instantly replenishing needles. If an opponent is stabbed, the blade will leave several needles inside of the opponent. It also never runs out of string either, with one at the base of the weapon, and one attached to each needle. Similarly, unhindered, the weapon always comes back when thrown for the techniques below, and can be pulled to the user free of activation via its wire so long as the nigh-invisible string is not cut. • Thread the Needle | This skill increases the speed of the wielder moderately while Nuibari is wielded.

This technique must be submitted as a custom jutsu and approved. It cannot be used to provide stats or reductions. It also does not take a custom jutsu slot. • Specialization | If this class is taken as the first and second class, you may pick 2 of its disciplines. Additionally, bloodline cast by this specialization are cheaper in cost as determined by the users body rank. At body rank D and C costs are reduced by five[5].

These do not consume activations. • Touché | By spending five chakra Purity is able to completely trade physical damage to instead seal tenketsu points and inflict severe pain in the area struck. This simulates the feeling of being pierced with the blade. Slashing attacks can still take effect. This does not consume an activation.

The academy doors sprung to life as Kojiro entered the corridor in the entry way. He sighed, his newly appointed Adviser Badge glistened in the dim lighting, still gleaming with pride over his recent promotion to Jonin as well. He had to gather information on his next mission, thus his presence here. There was a supposed place within the Land of Fire that was renown for attracting powerful challengers near and far. This place was refereed to as the Senshichojo, or the Warrior's Summit. As he searched the academy for some spec of knowledge on the exact location and specifics of the area he would notice his teacher, Kenshin Kosei in the study room. He knocked lightly at the door, sliding it open and waving politely." Ah, Captain Kosei. Seems you're still honing your skills even now." He smiled awkwardly, wondering how Kenshin would feel seeing his student wear the badge he had tossed aside. Not that Kojiro was aware of how things came to pass exactly. To his delight, a tome on the tower would be present to his right upon the shelf that he would help himself to after introductions.

__ Kenshin's studying was interrupted by a knock at the door followed by Kojiro's appearance. He nodded at his observation before commenting. His glance returned to his scrolls as he rolled them up. "Yes, I've just discovered that I unlocked the water chakra element." Despite the Sannin being at the pinnacle of achievement as a shinobi there was always room for improvement. He was training extensively in preparation for his mission for a powerful convict on the run from Arashigakure in the Land of Fire. The police captain stood from his desk and stored the two ninjutsu training scrolls that he no longer needed on the shelf. He looked at a book on the shelf above that also caught Kojiro's attention. When he looked back at Kojiro finally he noticed the badge. He took Kenshin's former post as the internal affairs advisor. He was relieved that Toso made the sensible choice of appointing his student to that position. "Well done on your promotions." The sage said briefly before grabbing the book and examining the first few pages. Kenshin then handed the book over to Kojiro. "I'm sure you're a faster reader than I am. What does that say about the Warrior's Summit in the Fire Country?" Kenshin was always a slow reader because of his lack of education in his childhood. As far as he knew, the Warrior's Summit was more of an old folktale but supposedly it is a real location. The most important part was finding the con and bringing him to justice.

A flustered red shade canvased Kojiro's face as he nodded. " Thank you sir. Large shoes to fill." He would dismiss the topic, choosing to hone in on the mission at hand. He would remove the book from the shelf, reading on the tower's history. The book was very straight forward, giving detailed information about the creation and population reguarding the nearly village like summit. " It appears that the Summit is nearly the equal to the size of the Hidden Leaf in civilian population. It was built by a man several hundred years ago to welcome challengers of martial skill to compete and claim the name of strongest in the world. The master of the tower was essentially their lord. Appears that there were...are several trials to pass when gaining access to the tower to compete." Kojiro paused, thinking about their known target. " Our criminal...if he's hididng there would defeinitely be strong. The trials required to gain entry would slow down anyone coming to find him...the guards would even be a warning to him depending on the ranking the man has atop the tower." He closed the book, looking to Kenshin. Both men were definitely capable of entry to the tower, no doubt. Still, he was sure they'd have their challenges. " Sir, we won't have the element of surprise but if our criminal is as powerful as we suspect, his ego will keep him from turning away our presence. "

__ When Kojiro's face was flushed Kenshin raised an eyebrow. The only time Kenshin ever looked like that himself was when his affection for Ada cracked through. He only hoped that his student was not developing some sort of homosexual crush on him. His brows lowered when Kojiro read about Senshichojo. The proposition of competing to climb the tower to get to the con sounded tiresome. Kenshin's preference was to arrest the man they were after. "That's silly, but I'll fight everyone in that tower to get the perp." He said in an annoyed huff. In the end, it was imperative to retrieve the target and he would do his duty by any means necessary. "Are you ready to head out?" He asked plainly and not anxiously because he had no interest in leaving the Land of Floods in general but duty called.

" Yes sir, let's go." Kojiro said as the two would exit the academy and towards the village's border. The journey would take several days, but the two would eventually come within view of Konohagakure.
" Right then "Kojiro said, pointing above the village to a tower that was visible from the valley they stood in. The tower loomed over the village atop one of the several pillars of stone attached to Takijinsei. " That's it up there. Just up this mountain side." He would lead the way up the mountain side. As they neared the peak, he witnessed small communities, outlying villages that seemed to be comprised of those who worked at the tower. The two neared entry way to witness the gate. It struck Kojiro as strange, such a worn down and seemingly abandoned place was guarded by two men. Even the roofing on the right of the gate had been destroyed, as though a meteor had stricken it from above. His attention was immediately drawn back to the guard who seemed to be sizing up the pair of them. " Tiny, ain'tcha? Guess that don't mean much to you ninja folk though. You want in? You gotta pass the Testing Gate." No more would be said, but it would be Kenshin's time to shine. He would find the gate in excess of five thousand pounds when he would attempt to lift it into the air.

__ Kenshin followed behind Kojiro as the navigator and was impressed by his initiative. It was not long ago that Kojiro was a genin following in his shadow during every mission. The hike to the warrior's summit was long but Kenshin marched consistently. When the duo reached the gate the guards were already proving about as tiresome as the hassle of traveling to the summit. "My name is Kenshin Kosei and I'm one of the legendary sannin of Arashigakure. We're both police shinobi and we suspect that you have a wanted man from our village in there. Now stand aside." His voice was stern because if these men refused then they were impeding justice and Kenshin would not tolerate it. He fully prepared himself for them to attack him in any case.
Personal Attributes • Piercing Accuracy | The clansman is more proficient than his fellow clan members at striking tenketsu. One's gentle fist application allows them to reduce 1.5 times the amount of chakra spent in a jyuken strike instead of 1.25. For example, if one spends 100 chakra on a gentle fist technique, the attack robs the target of 150 instead of the 125 normal clansmen would reduce. • Purest Lineage | The clansman's thoroughbred lineage allows them access to the Byakugan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. In addition, should they unlock the Tenseigan, they may have 50% less reserves to maintain it than other clan members and may also activate the Tenseigan without the use of a hand seal, chakra cost, or activation. • Physical Prowess | The Hyuuga gains a slight increase to reflex OR speed per body rank. This totals in a supreme increase for one or a moderate increase for both at S-Rank. In addition, the user gains a single custom slot to be used exclusively for the gentle fist style and one taijutsu slot. • Armory of Justice | Kenshin receives one free custom weapon. • Thundering Justice | Lightning based techniques used by the Hatake are granted a concussive blast in the form of a sonic boom upon impact. This concussive blast has a range of five feet per rank of the parent technique. Those within the area of the blast have a knock-back effect applied if their body rank is lower than the parent technique. In addition, deafness is applied upon impact for two posts.
Nuibari Attributes • Infinite Needles | While Nuibari functions perfectly fine as a long, thin blade that sits between a Jian and a Foil. It's comprised of infinite, instantly replenishing needles. If an opponent is stabbed, the blade will leave several needles inside of the opponent. It also never runs out of string either, with one at the base of the weapon, and one attached to each needle. Similarly, unhindered, the weapon always comes back when thrown for the techniques below, and can be pulled to the user free of activation via its wire so long as the nigh-invisible string is not cut. • Thread the Needle | This skill increases the speed of the wielder moderately while Nuibari is wielded.
Discipline & Cross Class Attributes • Blood Knight | Your bloodline techniques possess greater power, allowing them to overwhelm techniques of the same rank and preventing them from succumbing to elemental weaknesses. You can cast bloodline techniques through one-handed seals. {The Overwhelming Trait does not apply to anything above S} • Keystone | You receive an additional 5 custom technique slots to be used only on bloodline and bloodline-related techniques. Additionally, you may create a "keystone" technique; this technique is essentially a Bloodline ninja's signature move, with power and versatility similar to a technique such as Kamui. This technique must be submitted as a custom jutsu and approved. It cannot be used to provide stats or reductions. It also does not take a custom jutsu slot. • Specialization | If this class is taken as the first and second class, you may pick 2 of its disciplines. Additionally, bloodline cast by this specialization are cheaper in cost as determined by the users body rank. At body rank D and C costs are reduced by five[5]. At body rank B and A, costs are reduced by ten[10]. Finally at body rank S and S+ costs are reduced by fifteen[15] These reductions DO NOT stack and override their previous totals. (D+C -5, B+A -10, S beyond -15). Gain an Additional 5 Custom slots dedicated to your bloodline.
Purity Weapon Status Weapon Name:Purity Weapon Type: Rapier
Weapon Height: 38 inches Weapon Weight: 2 lbs
Description: Purity is a white rapier with an ornately designed crossguard with the symbols of Kumogakure and the Kumogakure Police Department (K.P.D.) engraved in serving as a K.P.D. officer sword. The blade itself is thirty-eight inches long and made from steel. The sword is designed for thrusting and parrying and is considerably lightweight.
Ability Summary: • Gentle Touche | By thrusting and spending the chakra and stamina cost of a Gentle Fist technique while applying ten chakra to the blade the Gentle Fist technique can be used through Purity. The Art of the Gentle Fist can also be utilized through Purity for a ten post duration after putting a D-Rank amount of chakra into the blade. These do not consume activations. • Touché | By spending five chakra Purity is able to completely trade physical damage to instead seal tenketsu points and inflict severe pain in the area struck. This simulates the feeling of being pierced with the blade. Slashing attacks can still take effect. This does not consume an activation.
The men who stood at the gate exchanged glances, laughing at one another. " Y'don't get it. I ain't stoppin' ya. But the only way to get in is through da' gates." the second man stepped away from the gate and picked up a pebble, launching it into the air. As it neared the top of the tower it would be deflected by some sort of Fuuinjutsu. " S'been here since before we was even born. Not sure what keeps it up'n running."
Kojiro would look to Kenshin who was clearly not having this delay. He knew that in Kenshin's transformed state, it was probably possible to lift the gate, or at the very least break the fuuinjutsu or the steel barrier. Kojiro stepped forward, placing his hand on Kenshin's shoulder. " Give me.....five minutes." He wouldn't explain what he needed the time for, nor if he really thought he could do the task. But he needed the five minutes to progress. Kojiro would close both his eyes, sitting Anza style before the gate. [1/5]
It was very likely that Kenshin would immediately recognize the intent. Kojiro had never been graced with Evergreen's gift the way Kenshin was...he wasn't taught to tap into such energy. It was more primal for him. His closed eyes allowed him to force the to and fro of the outside world to the recesses of his mind. Stillness of mind. Emerald sparks would dance in a perfect circle around his seated location that were ever so faint, then sink into the earth. [2/5 ]
While he was replicating what he had seen, he had no idea how to easily tap into natural energy. He knew however, the sensation he had gathered from Evergreen's presence at the battlefield of wholeness was what he aimed to mimic. Mimic he did. He seemed to stagger to his feet, eyes still closed as he used his utmost concentration to move while not losing what he had gathered. Kenshin's byakugan would easily see the nature energy teeming within him. A deep exhale would end sharply as what could only be described as leylines of energy beneath his skin formed, glowing the same green as his lightning that now nipped at the ground, leaving burn marks in it's wake around his feet. [3/5]
His eyes snapped open, ending his meditative state as he shouted to Kenshin. " Go, now! " His hands tightened around the base of the iron gate, the sound of iron bending beneath the force of his fingers as he used the incomplete natural energy around him to enhance his strength. This would even bend the iron where his fingers clenched. [ 4/5]
He hoisted the gate over his head with ease, the iron frame lifting only inches above his hands before it would come crashing down. Kojiro stepped forward, purely out of luck as his body became heavy as the repercussions of nature energy petrified his flesh around his neck."Damn" he murmured to himself as the stiffness hindered him. Still,it would soon fade away, but it was clear Kojiro had done something beyond his abilities so far. He wondered what Kenshin's reaction would be. He had only tried this a few times prior, mimicing his teacher's powers. [5/5]

__ When one of the men standing in front of the gates explained their meaning and showed it by throwing a rock over it the situation made more sense. "Ah." He vocalized that he understood and only nodded at Kojiro when he seemed to take initiative once again. Each mission became more and more like a partnership with his now-Jonin disciple. Kenshin stood with his arms crossed and watched Kojiro's actions. He was able to tell that massive amounts of uncontrolled natural energy were flowing through his body in chaotic spurts. His eyes widened in disbelief that Kojiro had access to natural energy the way he did without a summoning animal. Kenshin followed Kojiro's directions and moved through the barely lifted gate. When both him and Kojiro were through he would turn back to look at him. "I can't believe the coincidence. You're a human path." The sage said as he recognized the light petrification around his neck. He knew that human path sages were incredibly rare almost as if a small number had the gift to be attuned to natural energy without an animal teacher. "That means you have the innate ability to connect to natural energy and use sage mode without an animal contract. The way the beasts themselves can. You need more training before you can appropriately use sage mode and beware of fully petrifying yourself." Kenshin then pointed to the stone skin on his neck and was still amazed that his student happened to have the same rare gift as him. He would not be surprised if only a handful of people worldwide could access natural energy without animal influences. He suspected that people who Evergreen favored received the same attunement as the animals in the sage lands. Kenshin waited for Kojiro to recuperate before pressing further into the compound.

Kojiro wouldn't miss his teacher's amazement. He would fight back the feelings of joy from agknoledgement, knowing that it was only natural that he advance. He did his best to continue acting mature. " Truthfully, I just watched you. I've seen the transformation enough times to gain a simple understanding of how it's done. Just not great at controlling the energy yet." Kojiro's hand moved to his neck at the warning, feeling the stone skin's abrasiveness. He took the warning to mind, realizing the skin was turning back to it's natural state after several moments. The two men would continue their path toward the tower, stopping at a small refreshment stand on the way to rejuvinate from their journey. After reaching the main entry way of the tower, Kojiro would smile with anticipation, throwing the oversized door open to see who laid inside.
Upon this floor were several contestants who seemed to be moving back down from the tower. They would grumble and complain about their losses in passing. " Maaan. That guy from the land of floods is no joke. Surprised he hasn't reached the top yet." the companions of the contestant nodded, as a another spoke up. " The guy sharing that floor with him is somethin' too. Never met a swordsman so quick in all my years. I heard he's one of tha' group that was at Seizan. " Kojiro's eyes widened as the men exited, he whipped his head around, facing Kenshin. " Sir, those men!" Words wouldn't need be exchanged as both of them knew who they very well were...or could be. Their only obstacle on this floor was the three men standing before them. Defeating those three would secure their places in advancement to the next floor of the tower. Odds were they could gather intelligence from victory as well.

__ Kenshin was surprised that Kojiro was able to access this innate ability by watching him perform the transformation on only two occasions. They continued on their journey regardless and when they entered the tower he stared sharply around the room for the con. "Seizan? It can't be..." There was only one man who fits that description other than himself. He closed his eyes and felt his ocular veins tense as the world expanded around him once again. He was able to fully examine Hachiro and only knew of him that he went rogue from Kumogakure and became a bandit. This was unfortunately unsurprising as Kenshin knew he was a wolf in sheep's clothing from the moment they met and he decided to go on a bizarrely bloodthirsty raid instead of following the protocol as Ada and himself did of arresting them. And yet their paths were destined to cross again it seemed. They were on the floor above and there were three men obstructing their advancement. It was time to climb the battle tower so he approached them and bowed deeply before unsheathing his rapier. The thin white sword was covered in chakra as Kenshin prepared for a duel by activating the blade's Hyuuga abilities. "We seek advancement to the next floor." Kenshin spoke confidently as he challenged the men and waited for them to make the first move.

The three conestents before the duo would appear. It was clear that they were even younger than Kojiro, ranking at Genin if not less. The three of them still seemed determined. The boy who stood in the center of their formation would step forward. " Y- You both are.." he started, supressing his concern. He clearly knew of Kenshin and Kojiro. More thank likely it was due tot he battle with Kogarashi. He shook his head, brandishing his sword and taking it in both hands while pointin it's tip toward the both of them. " Sorry guys, you'll both just get hurt! Let me fight em'!" he shouted, throwing his teammates off guard. It was clear he was worried about the two at his side being hurt. " Ya see. These two just got their headbands from our village in the land of rice. I'm a genin still but supposed to be in charge. They've never fought in combat and I thought the lower floors would help with that....but....they couldn't learn a thing from being knocked out...so I'll fight!" With that, the youth would charge on Kojiro, ready to fall on his foes weapon to teach his comrades a lesson.

It was clear from Kenshin's reaction, however minimal it was, that he suspected the same of the men guarding the tower floors ahead. He grinned. He knew that this Hachiro Hirohiko was a man who was originally one of the Seizan heroes, but he had gone down a much different path, choosing to give in to the darkness within him instead of following the high road with the law. Just as it seemed everything was clear before them...children would appear. The brown haired boy in the center seemed to be their leader, judging from their demeanor and headbands they were mostly fresh genin from the land of rice. The brown haired leader stepped forward, choosing Kojiro as his foe and bravely charging head long into battle. With a single swift motion, Kojiro drew his blade, deflecting the boy's sword to the side, sending him stumbling in that direction. Without skipping a beat, he would slash at the boy's exposed back, flipping his blade to it's dull side before cracking him with a firm thump that would knock him to the ground. The boy fought to recover as Kojiro raised his sword, readying it for a second strike. The boy would move quickly attempting to slash upward to Kojiro's head. Without hesitation he took the hilt of his blade and evaded his attack, striking the boy and knocking him unconcious. Looking to the boy's comrades he smiled. " Please, take him to the nearest medic. You've got a brave leader...but you'll never learn if you don't try it yourselves."
With those parting words, Kojiro and Kenshin would proceed up the tower, toppling foe after foe and encountering much more formidable adversaries. The ascension of the tower would take several hours as the two proceeded upward. As they reached the beginning of the top ten floors, the pinnacle of the tower. A dark and menacing chakra permeated from the entire floor as two chakra sources could be sensed to those with the capacity. Even Kojiro could sense malintent from the doorway as they moved inside to see two figures.

The darkest of evils flooded out from the man as he stood, awaiting what he felt coming. He seemed excited beyond control as the door began to creak open. " Hehehe. Finally. I get to fight him..." the man murmured as his eyes would immediately fixate on Kenshin's figure directly behind Kojiro's. He stepped forward, brandishing his double edged sword that seemed to be made of some sort of nonmetal at first glance. He smriked with madness as he called out the police captain. " Kosei! How about you fight me now?! I didn't have my sword last time...but today you die!" He was assuming that Kenshin remembered one of his first arrests form Kumogakure. This man was a master of the storm release and yet was put down with ease due to his need to manipulate it through his blade. He roared out a comment with haste before launching himself." b*****d, keep the kid off my back!" with that, he was gone, leaving the man who was still seated at the opposite end of the floor.
The man seated seemed calm, unnerved by the murderous intent that the first man had and didn't seem to exhibit his own. He stood, seeming to have no haste about him as he dusted off his pants after being seated upon his knees awaiting the group. " Lame." he said, vanishing quickly and reappearing between Raiju and Kenshin. His blade was drawn as a burst of wind forced the doors completely open and blew dust about. "Idiot. Let me talk first. I should kill you now for sneaking past the past floors. You'll probably die either way today, so why not enjoy it for a few minutes longer? " It had been unclear until the action seemed to slow down, but the man who had intercepted the murderer had caught the sword between his middle and index fingers without so much as hesitating. With a flick of his wrist he allowed the man to stumble back, turning to Kojiro and Kenshin. A long pause filled the air as he allowed the silence to resonate with him. " It's been some time. Kenshin. " he said with a blank expression. He turned his face to the man who stood at his side, Kojiro. " I take it this is your new partner? Seems sturdy enough." He sighed, clearly regretting that he knew what was coming. " I assume you're not here for me specifically...but considering how things went down before I left, I can't deny you for pursuing me now that I'm here. I knew you'd show eventually."
