Rules for the fights:
♠ Rules and regulation according to Rei.
♠ Staying in character is your way to win. It's an RP tournament after all, it's up to you how you wish to restrict yourself but you read the main rules when you entered.
♠ 4 day reply limit (Unless agreed for longer)
♠ Custom jutsu(s) and custom element(s) are allowed but aslong as youn stay in character.
♠ You start mid range from each other.
♠ Much like the original Chuunin exams, everything is a surprise and with that, it includes what each ninja can use. All of you are strangers, none of you know the others kgs or abilities. You are strangers, so none of this "knowing you're an uchiha i look at your chin". In this round atleast.
♠ Situation: It's the Ninja world chuunin exams and people have come from all over the world for this Amazing event. The chuunin exams and we've all been training for it. Due to the high number of people taking part, Jiraiya decided it was best to have a knockout round to kick things off. So all students were gathered in the stadium with only the other participants watching. Each match up was chosen randomly and would take part in the chuunin arena where Naruto fought Neji. But what everyone needed to remember, was firstly everyone could see their skills, so what they used to win in this round could be known to all in the next round. Secondly, the chuunin exams some times went on for days, how much time would they have to rest to replenish their chakra?


I'll be using Neji :neji: (in sig). The stats on the bio are outdated. I have completed Gentle Fist as well as Fire, Water and Ken, everything else is at B rank.

Post link to your bio and I'll make the first move bro ^_^ Let's have fun!

Walking through the chunnin exam entrance Neji would emerge from the stadium doors with everyone watching him, however this didn't wander his attention at hand. He's in the first round of the exams and he must succeed in making it to the end, to become stronger for his friends. Reassuring himself of what needs to be done he'd see on the other end of the stadium what looks like his opponent. Thinking back on the brackets that were posted, his name was Death. He didn't know anything about his opponent but Neji being one to not underestimate his opponents would be sure to pay very clear attention to him.

Let's have a good match, shall we....Death?

Upon saying those words veins started to bulge out from the sides of Neji's eyes, this was called the Byakugan.

(Dōjutsu: Byakugan) Eye Technique: The All Seeing White Eye (passive)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A-Rank
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30 (-5 per turn to keep active)
Damage: N/A
Description:
One of the Three Great Dōjutsu (San Daidōjutsu), the Byakugan is the dōjutsu kekkei genkai of the Hyūga and Ōtsutsuki clans, inherited from Kaguya Ōtsutsuki. Bearers of this Dõjutsu have almost featureless white eyes. When the Byakugan is activated, the user's pupils become more distinct, and the veins near their temples bulge as the blood flow to their eyes is increased. While having the Byakugan deactivated, shinobi with have a normal eyesight and no special addition to their vision. While low rank Hyugas will need to perform a sequence of hand seals ( Horse → Tiger with lifting just index fingers → Boar with nearly straightened fingers → Hare → Rat → Dog → Horse → Dog → Hare → Rat → Boar with nearly straightened fingers → Snake with the right index finger lifted straight up) to activate their Byakugan, Hyuga masters and Otsutsuki clan members will be able to do so without the need for any hand seals and even have it active passively for long periods of time. Once activated, the user gains access to all of the abilities the Byakugan bestows upon them. While, like other Dojutsu, its main ability is to see chakra and the chakra flow in sentient beings, the Byakugan adds a complete new detail and dimension to that ability. Not only can they see chakra flow, but also the circulatory system and even the 361 tenketsu (even of their own). Added to this ability, once activated the Byakugan grants the user a near perfect field of vision 360º around himself (up to long-range if they're a master). This field of vision has only one blind spot; slightly above the 3rd thoracic vertebrae and facing backwards. The last ability the Byakugan has is the ability to zoom in and out, focusing on specific things, piercing beyond matter and energy alike. This specific ability allows the user to see pass most barriers as well as physical matter (like rock walls, ground, etc) but also energy, being able to focus beyond chakra that might be in front of them or other energies. The zooming ability is enhanced as the user becomes more adept at using his eyes and can even reach distances above 20kms away.
Note: For Hyugas, activation spends a move from the users own move count but once the user reaches Sannin Rank and has gained mastery over Gentle Fist for 1 month, he can activate it passively without spending a move. Because of its low chakra cost to maintain, the user can keep it active throughout the whole fight as long as he has chakra and stamina to do so.
Note: Genjutsu that requires Eye Contact when used against a Byakugan user requires direct eye contact between enemy pupil and user's pupil
Note: Hyugas must be activated to use Gentle Fist (Jyuken)
Note: Its tracking abilities are equal to that of 3 Tomoe Sharingan.
Note: Only Hyugas possess the ability to utilize Jyuken, However, all Otsutsuki clan members possess the ability of passive activation.

Passively activating them he'd look at the body of Death, pinpointing where all his chakra points are as well as keeping an eye out of his opponents chakra flow. Proceeding on he'd start running towards Death at full speed all while reaching out his left hand into his ninja pouch and pulling out a kunai, which he'd throw at Death, aimed at his left eye.

Death crouched as he sat on his toes, waiting for his opponent, a certain "Neji" to show up, ready to pounce on him. As soon as Neji entered the field, Death raised his head, to have a good look at the boy, as his crimson eyes pierced through the boy's soul, trying to take it out of its host body....well not literally though. With his scythes strapped on his sides, and him dressed in his war armor (till his waist), Death was ready to tear his target apart. Or at least, grant him a quick and sweet death.

You really wanna do this kid? You know this won't end good for you, right? And by not good, I mean, you'll die.

As the boy's eyes changed its appearance, Dust changed its form to turn itself into a crow, that would perch on Death's right shoulder, while waiting for an opportune moment to attack.

So I got myself a Hyuga, eh? Never killed a Hyuga before. So I guess I can update my ninja card collection tonight.

Dust
Rank : A
Type : Weapon
Range : Short
Chakra cost : Depends on the
technique used.
Damage points : N/A
Description : Seven years ago, Azrael tracked down an ancient artifact, a crystal ball which was long forgotten in an ancient war in a cave near the now-Kirigakure borders. Designed by the Elves of Valinor in the Uttermost West, the crystal ball is meant to be used both as a weapon and a tool of disguise on journeys. It contains all the knowledge that the owner and the previous owners acquired throughout their journeys. That is why it is known to be omniscient to an extent. The legends about this crystal ball say that it had a living soul of the original user in it. No one ever questioned it, as the crystal ball would simply move on its own accord and not listen to its owner, if he were weak or deemed unworthy of controling it. But atleast it was safe to assume that the crystal ball was a sentinent weapon. This spherical crystal ball, with the size of a human head had a snowy-cloudy white color and it would change its color and appearence inside it to show whatever the user wished. This helped Azrael to infiltrate various villages, disguising himself as fortune-teller. Azrael would ask the enemies to concentrate in the crystal ball, which would capture them off-guard in genjutsus reliant on the orb and allow him to pass through freely. The crystal ball, is capable of communicating telepathically with the user. Also, being a sentinent tool, it could see the world through its crystal surface and transmit the information to the owner as the owner's vision was directly linked to it. It could also telepathically communicate with the user, in order to share its wisdom. However, this is secondary to its main ability, which is to hover in the air. By passively absorbing chakra from the user (10 chakra per turn), the crystal ball could float in the air, near and far from the user according to his wishes. The ball, carries the user's chakra in it and so, can perform various elemental and non-elemental techniques. Being made of some unknown material, this ball is quite strong and is indestructible.
Note: Can only be taught by Azráel
(Arusu Planetarium: Sheipushifutā no giman) | Ars Planetarium: Deception of a Shape Shifter
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: Using the ability to make changes to its body, the crystal ball shape shifts to form various entities. From a snake to a bird, from a fish to a human skull, it can shape itself to form anything; but never exceeding its own size and volume. The advantage of using this technique is that, when assuming a form, it takes on the advantages of that form while retaining its normal abilities. The weapon being so old, and having passed on from various masters, with various abilities, it has picked up some talents which it can use now. For example, a shark (though a small one) will have sharp teeth, can rip out the flesh of the opponents, can swim in water at very high speeds (comparable to canon sharks) etc. If it chooses to be a snake, it will have all the ability of a snake (heat and vibration perception etc.) in addition to having the ability of travelling at good speeds through earthen structures. A bird will have its own ability with an addition of travelling at high speeds through windy atmosphere and likewise. However note that, Dust does not gain the special abilities of the said animals (spewing venom etc.). By mimicking the animal, Dust gains their unique ability as it is an omniscient and a living weapon, allowing it to learn things at an alarming rate. A special ability that the weapon achieves in this form is that, being a sentient weapon, it can communicate with animals by posing as one of them. This makes it easier to track down opponents over the Ninja World a bit easier. Also, an interesting fact that was noted is, summoned animals usually don’t attack the weapon when it poses as one of them, as they consider it as one of their kind, leaving the opponent to attack the weapon himself.
Note:
* Can only by used three times.
* Transformation may last for a maximum of 5 turns.
* The weapon can turn back to its normal form whenever it feels like (similar to water substitution ) However, to move to another form, it needs to use this technique again.
* Can only be taught to users of Ars Planetarium.
As Neji started his run, Death dashed his way towards the boy with faster speed, closing in the distance quicker. He noticed how the boy swung his hand to release a Kunai. Death simply tilted his head towards his right to dodge the kunai (that would pass over his left shoulder) as he reduced the gap. At the correct distance, he would jump up and flip over Neji, avoiding direct confrontation. What happens after that would be a surprise, no?

As the crimson eyed Death made way with his approach towards Neji at high speeds, Neji would keep close eyes on him as well as the crow sitting on his right shoulder. Death even managed to avoid the thrown kunai by slightly tilting his head, completely flying over him as it would tag the wall behind him eventually. With their approach ever closer and noticing the subtle movements of his body Neji would see Death beginning to pounce up, changing his position mid-air to flip over (assuming front flip) Neji at a specific distance. Seeing this coming however, Neji would jump up at the opportune moment when Death was over him as well as his back being exposed. Locking onto his vital's, specifically the lungs, Neji would thrust his right palm onto his back exerting a chakra burst which would damage Death's lungs. Slamming the open right palm into his back, he would send him a little higher into the air but would soon come back crashing onto the floor with his back slamming onto the ground (short range) as he would be laying upwards. This would severely hurt him as well as make it difficult for him to breath since his lungs got damaged from the chakra burst.

(Hakke Kakuu Raishuu) – Eight Trigrams Aerial Attack
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user runs at the enemy at full speed before jumping and hitting one of the foe’s vital organs. Alternatively, the user may jump from a high distance and palm the foe continuously until all their chakra points blast.

You can't truly believe something like that would easily get by me, did you? I promised myself that I would get to the finals and win. I will not lose again!

Neji knew something like that wouldn't have been enough to take out Death. Remaining calm and keeping a level headed analysis of the situation he would still be cautious of his unknowing opponent. Neji would be completely aware of his surroundings with his Byakugan, making sure nothing gets by. With his opponent laying there Neji would make way by running yet again towards him this timing focusing on the tenketsus within the body. He'd extend both his right and left hands, pointing out his index and middle fingers as he'd approach him. The right extended fingers of Neji would come into contact with a tenketsu on the top left torso, following that his left extended fingers would make contact with his lower abdominal tenketsu and this would continue in almost instant manner as 62 more strikes to the tenketsus would follow with the last (64) slamming into the tenketsu of the heart.

What made him think he could even touch Death? Death was a legend. And a mere teenager of whatever clan could only dream of touching his shadow. Yeah that's right. The boy would never touch Death. Death would simply complete his flip and land behind the boy, only to take out his scythes and swing 360 degrees, while crouching, to cut off the boy's legs from his upper body, by making a cut through his thighs.

I'll give you one advice kid. Never go for the obvious. You just walked into my trap.

What happens in reality (which the boy may or may not understand) is that, when Death flipped over Neji, Death's shadow fell on him, which got connected to his own shadow, only to immobilize him. The moment Neji starts jumping, he would be stopped suddenly, before his thrusts his palm into Death's back. Although it's not that Death didn't know what Neji was doing behind him (Death can see it through Dust), he knew the boy wouldn't be able to complete his move even if Death exposed his blind spot. Even if he did manage to break out of the shadow bind, Dust would be waiting to counter the boy.

(Kage Mane) - Shadow Imitation
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short - Mid Range (Time of day variant)(long range if additional shadow/s.)
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: Technique allows the user to control their shadow as far as possible whilst it has sufficient area, additional area can be added by joining with another shadow. Once it comes into contact with the targets shadow the two merge and the target is forced to imitate the users movements until the bond is broken.
Death would stand up facing the boy, 5 meters away from him, mocking and taunting him, while he lies motionless on the ground, bleeding and crying in pain.

OOC: It's all good man, this is for fun after all lol

Just as Neji was jumping up into the air and was just about to thrust his right palm into Death's back, he suddenly came to a halt; he couldn't move. With his Byakugan he would see that Death's shadow was attached to his own as well has having a chakra signature of its own, sharing Death's chakra. This was very similar to Shikamaru's shadow possession jutsu and in this situation it would be difficult to escape since he'd have an advantage close range all while Neji, being a taijutsu user, would need to get in range. Analyzing the situation though, Neji realizes despite not being able to move his body it doesn't mean he can't manipulate his chakra to his advantage.

Grinning a little, as Neji's right palm is still facing upwards at Death as he's still in the middle of his flip he would instantly release a burst of chakra that would consume Death's body as well as his Dust. The chakra overwhelming him would completely destroy his internal organs as it makes its way through. The force behind that chakra burst would push Death diagonally into the sky as he's being pushed like a rag doll, landing about 8 meters away now.

(Hakke Hazangeki) - 8 Trigrams Mountain Crusher
Rank: A
Type: Attack/Supplementary
Range: Close
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A(+65 if used as an attack)
Description: An up-close attack were the user pushes a huge amount of chakra into their opponent's body that destroys the internal organs and can level any wall.

Pushing Death away would disconnect the shadow, freeing Neji from being immobilized any longer. Taking this opportunity of Death being immobile right now, Neji would reach into his ninja pouch with both hands. Upon revealing what was brought out, in his left hand he'd have a flash bomb while in his right he'd have a kunai with an explosive tag on it. Swinging his left hand, he'd throw the flash bomb right at Death, completely illuminating the area around him and making it impossible for him to see as well as negating the possibility of him manipulating his shadow. Following that, he'd swing his right hand throwing the kunai at Death during the flash of light, still being able to see him with his Byakugan. The kunai would pierce him directly in the stomach and within a couple moments it would go off in an explosion that would destroy the ground, shooting decent sized chunks of rock everywhere around the perimeter. Not only that but it would rip Death's lower body from his upper torso and push him even further back towards the stadium wall.

I must thank my friend, Shikamaru. Because of him, he helped me deduce what I had to do to escape. You, however, sure like to underestimate your opponents, don't you? I made that mistake before against him.....I won't make that mistake again!

Chakra: (1660) - 30 = 1630 remaining

He was shot up. Just like the boy wanted. Death was launched 8 meters away from the boy, where he would land perfectly on his legs, and stand to face him. He stood. Perfectly still. No scratch, no injuries. But how? Neji would've wondered, as he still stood immobilized, binded by the shadows that Death trapped him with.

Death simply looked at Neji, who'd be facing his back towards Death, before he made his move. He smirked, as the black coating on his body shined in the light of the sky. Death had seen it all. As Neji released chakra from his palm, Death impulsively released his shadow chakra from his entire body, coating himself in shadows. Being in short range of the attack, Death had to choose one of his fastest techniques, that swiftly provided him with the required defenses. Dust would simply fall back towards Death's chest, so that it avoids being hit, as Death's back takes the hit. The attack would not damage Death, but it would definitely launch him away in the blown direction. This was an appropriate technique for Death as he wouldn't have to release his Kage Mane while utilizing another technique. Dust would quickly climb back on Death's shoulder, as Death makes a move.

Isn't that a little presumptuous of you to think that I underestimate anyone?

(Shadō sentō de : Don'yoku ōrudoman no chūshōbodi) | Shadow Combat: Maligned Body of a Greedy Old Man
Type: Defense
Rank: S
Range:Short
Chakra Cost: 40 (+5 every turn)
Damage Points: N/A (-15 total to user for 5 turns)
Description: This technique is one of the most powerful techniques of the Shadow Combat Style. Its main motive is to provide the utmost defensive abilities that shadows could ever provide. The user begins by channeling his shadow chakra throughout his body and releasing tendrils of shadows from all the pores in his body. The tendrils will swiftly coil around the body, re-enter the body, re-emerge and coil around the body again. This is a continuous process that coats the user's body in layers of shadows, creating a tight mesh that provide a very good defense by providing a new layer every time. The mesh is so strong, that the user can punch a big and dense rock with his fist with all his might, and still feel nothing. Not only that, the tendrils go deep inside the user’s body, and coat itself over the bones as well, making it extra strong. Damage due to physical impact (or any Taijutsu) will increase by +20 due to the strong chakra mesh coating over the body. The tendrils when they re-enter the body, causes slight pain to the user every time, enough to keep him out of B-Rank and below genjutsus continuously. The user can, if needed, channel his shadow chakra into his weapons, to give them the same effect. However, they lose the effect the moment the user leaves the weapon. The user can also release the tendrils passively outside his body (up to short-range), to grab the opponents and throw them (any freeform activity).
Note:
This technique requires concentration; and hence the user cannot perform techniques above S-Rank when this is active.
Can only be taught to a Shadow Combat Student
Cannot use any Shadow Combat techniques in the same turn it is used.
Lasts 5 turns at max.
Can only be used twice.
As soon as he lands back safely, Death would take out a (special) kunai (with explosive tag) and punch it straight into the center of his forehead. This would make Neji to imitate him, as he takes out a Kunai of his own, and punches it into his own forehead. However, unlike Death, Neji would not be able to survive the damage obtained through the kunai piercing his skull. Death, on the other hand, would place a small scar on his mask, that protects his from damages by kunais and similar materials.
Once done, Death would quickly throw the special kunai that would pierce the ground under Neji's legs, threatening to blow up if he somehow manages to move.

You on the other hand kid, decided to show up on field without even knowing what or who you are against.

Watching as Death would fly back, Neji thought he had got him with a direct hit, however, as he's flying back with his Byakugan he would see that his opponent wasn't harmed at all. To top it all off, he was still immobilized from his opponent's Shadow Possession Jutsu. He see's Death reaching into his bag about to grab something (I assume you're using your right hand, so I'd imitate with my right as well), and being possessed, Neji would also reach for his bag. With his visual prowess he'd see that Death would be reaching for a kunai which would immediately alert Neji that this was about to be used on him. This, however didn't stop him from coming up with an idea.

Remaining calm in the face of danger; death, Neji would have thought of a maneuver to get him out of this situation. With his free left hand which was pointed towards the ground with the palm being slightly tilted forward, Neji would unleash a palm burst that would collide with the ground. This force of the chakra being expelled would propel Neji to fly backwards about 8 meters or so. Adding to the fact that they were 8 meters away already, they're now long range from each other. This would mean that the Shadow Possession would be out of range, thus freeing Neji from the binding.

(Hakke Kuushou) - 8 Trigrams Air Palm
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Close-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30(+5 if they hit an object)
Description: The user pushes chakra out of their palm that blows away their opponent.

I don't underestimate anyone but isn't this a tournament with people you know nothing about? I guess I'm just figuring out what kind of character you are, Death.

Managing to avoid what could have been a terrible ending, Neji would take precautions to possibly avoid what happened there from happening again. Reaching into his ninja pouch with his right hand he'd reach for a smoke bomb and throw it in between both himself and Death. As the smoke would spread around it would cover the general vicinity making visual contact impossible, at least for Death. With his Byakugan he would still, with a watchful eye see where his opponent is. Reaching once more into his pouch, using both hands this time Neji would pull out a couple normal kunai's with his left and a kunai with a explosive tag with his right. With the cover of the smoke, Neji would proceed to run slightly to the right side where he'd then throw the explosive kunai with his right hand which would land directly behind Death. His immediate response would be to turn around and see what it is, however the second he does so the 2 normal kunai with his left hand would be thrown as well. These 2 would each hit a leg, hurting Death and causing him to collapse onto his knee's in pain. With the explosive kunai behind him and unable to move, it would go off taking Death with it.

Chakra: (1630) - 5(last turn's) - 5 - 15 = 1605 remaining

As Neji released chakra from his palms, Death simply smirked. It was funny how the boy though he could get out of Death's grasp. Death simply kept walking towards the boy, reducing the distance between them, as Dust flapped its wings to rise behind (and above) Death, while emitting bright light that it could only do with the help of lightning chakra.
-Lightning: When channeled with the Lightening chakra, the orb radiates with energy as its exterior surface vibrates with the overflowing lightening chakra. On contact with the opponent, this orb will cause the opponent's skin to be numb and paralyzed. The limb which comes in contact with it, remains paralyzed for 1 whole turn.
This caused the shadows to increase its range, so that Death could manipulate them even up to long range. As he walked, he threw a special kunai (with explosive tag), right on the ground where the boy was supposed to land, while channeling his chakra into the shadows, causing two hands to emerge out and strangle Neji.

Let me know when you are ready to give up kid. I want to see that fear in your eyes when I kill you. I will make sure that you remember this event even after you are dead.

(Kage Kubi Shibari) Shadow Neck Bind
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary/Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user traps the enemy buy combining shadows and then strangles the enemy with a shadow hand.
Once the boy lands, Death forces both his palms to turn towards his face, while still closing in on him, so that any chakra that Neji releases from his palms, blows away his head. Death would come to a halt once he reaches 8 meters, as he waits for the boy to give up.

Soaring in the sky because of his previous action, Neji would see that Death had sent his Dust into the sky and had it emit a light that would stretch out his shadow which would try to extend its way towards the Hyuga, awaiting his landing. Upon doing this, he would as well create hands made of shadows that would appear at the desired location of where Neji would be. Noticing all this with his Byakugan however, Neji would reach into his ninja pouch pulling out a normal flash bomb which he'd throw at the projected destination. The light emitted from the bomb would dissipate the shadows making Neji's landing safe and shadow free.

I never give up, Death. It's something I'll never do.

Staring at Death, Neji would once again reach for his ninja pouch. This time he would pull out a couple kunai with flash bombs attached to them while holding them towards his back with his right hand and a smoke bomb with his left. This was so that his opponent wouldn't see what he drew out. Knowing he can't keep this fight at long range Neji would make his way towards Death by sprinting down to him. Crossing over to mid range now he'd throw the smoke bomb in between him and Death. The smoke would spread over, enveloping him and Dust within making vision of Neji impossible. During this loss of vision Neji himself would cross over into the smoke coming into short range. Swinging his right hand he would throw both of the flash bomb kunai directly in front of Death (both left and right of him), forcing his shadow to be very thin as well as it leaning backwards away from Neji. With that clearing the way and briefly blinding his opponent, using that moment Neji would lock onto Death's 8 inner gates. Focused on those points, he would extend his index and middle fingers out with both his hands and would shut down those points systematically, completely stopping the flow of chakra from his opponent.

(Zessho Hachimon Hougeki) - 8 Gates Assault
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Close
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: Attack on the 8 gates them self that stops flow of chakra completely for two turns after the opponent is hit by it.

Leading up with that he would retract his right hand and thrust it forward, shooting out a burst of chakra, then would do the same with his left and then again with his right. This would make Death's body go flying backwards as it goes crashing back into the stadium wall from the continued chakra bursts.

I've been looking forwards to going through this fight, weird to say but i did quite a bit of reading over the past two weeks. The gifs you guys used helped get my head into it. But let me break it down :)

First move - So Neji you start of, typical Neji, set the scene, activate your Byakugan, but you started off slow, in a sense. I got a feel for the rp, you ran at him and used a basic weapon, sets up for a nice start. And flash you did the same, nice feel for the rp, going at each other, it's about to go down kinda scene. Gif for the win.

Second move - Neji, that timing of your move was nice, hitting him in the back the way you did, very in character. Pretty much a full on gentle fist attack, wouldn't expect any less. Now flash, using your shadow like that, i assume you planned to do that from the start? But either way it was a nice counter well planned and takes out the power of his short range style.

third move - Neji, nice use of the situation. You byakugan seeing all like that, the way you described it without fault. Used your previous momentum to try and save you. Such a fast paced fight. Now flash, i think your counter was a bit too fast here, but the fact that you did counter i believe would distract your focus for your shadow possetion as you were hit with such force. Though it might be possible, it's just pushing it a bit for me.


Fourth move - Not gonna lie, most people would struggle to get out of this situation, but you did it with staying in character, bravo neji. You are using your eye and clan abilities to their fullest here. Now flash, i'm not 100% on your move here. Your orb would vibrate with power, it doesn't mention a bright glow, or anything like that to increase your shadows range. Like for example when been charged a pencil with lightning, it didn't create longer shadows all around. Though i'm not ruling it out as a possibility. I know it's not official, but image below of chidori sasuke with normal shadow. Plus where dust was still higher in the air it wouldn't make too much difference. But minor details. Aside from that minor detail you pressed him for another attack going for another binding to choke him which was nice.

fifth move - Now Neji i'm not sure flash bombs can be used like you did. What Flash did with his Orb bird, is an ability that is classed as jutsu use in a sense, every jutsu you must counter with a jutsu. Don't get me wrong your counter works, but does it fall within the basic rp rules? It's great move none the less, and i'll allow it in this sense, but you just used a basic weapon to counter a just style move with isn't normally allowed. But once again you go for that full on assault up close when you know the dangers of his shadows lol


Now is the hardest part. Deciding on a winner. You both stuck to your characters greatly and it was such a fast paced timeframe. Though the minor edge i will have to say goes to Neji. He used the hyuuga techniques without flaw and his Byakugan and truely did his character justice, i've not seen anyone do that in a long time. Don't get me wrong flash, you did great and you've come a long way since the konoha chuunin exams but i feel neji had the slight edge rp wise.

Winner - Neji Hyuuga.
