For reference I'll be using a basic katana coated with ani as my custom weapon. Haven't had a chance to add it to my bio yet.
I'm afraid you have me at a disadvantage. For I've no inkling of your name. Merely that you stand on land's you're not welcome in.
Minato would watch as his opponent reacted to the lightning, his mind raced at the prospect. What was it that allowed the man to know the attack was coming? The most obvious or simple answer would be a type of chakra sensory that wasn't so uncommon among ninja especially those with refined chakra control. What concerned minato more were the abilities the man used to avoid them. Seemingly turning himself to a cloud of dark smoke, as he did so the man seemingly waved a strange wooden stick and a group of what appeared to be tigers would raise from the floor all around minato. The yellow flash thoughts turned once more to logical deduction, he was by no means an inexperienced combatant and something felt wrong to him. This man had called these beasts from the floor with no puff of smoke and no loss of blood from his own person which all but entirely ruled out the summoning technique. Furthermore the beasts raised wholly from the ground rather than appearing to form from it discounting the chance that they were in fact elemental beasts formed from the earth, not only that but usually such beasts have a direct connection to the user and retain some elemental appearance. This left all signs pointing to genjutsu. There were few other options that made sense and minato knew he could ill afford a wasted moment against a skilled opponent. Pushing the tip of his ani blade in to the knuckle joint of his little toe of his left foot minato aimed to cause incredible pain to himself breaking the genjutsu while causing minimal long term damage in the fight due to the lack of true damage and bleeding and the fact the little toe itself is an irrelevant thing for the human body not affecting balance or poise.
Impressive as he fends off the kunai, he was a man of skill, I could see it. I could hear it. I knew it, his body movements, and the way he handled himself gave it away. Nonetheless, I now knew not to underestimate this man. A smile crossed my face, this was going to be fun, wasn't it? Nonetheless, without a problem in my mind, he spoke and I already knew what he was going to say. My skills as a Legilimens was unsurpassed. Passively, I knew what he was going to do next, as I ravaged through the surface levels of his mind, like an open book revealing all its secrets. I knew his next actions, the treachery. Aiming to fool me? I was beyond such games. I wanted to laugh, but he didn't know I could look inside him so easily. It was all too easy. His hand was a sure giveaway as well. Passively, my body turns to smoke as I sway to the left in an almost grace, as my dark enveloped body emits a dark smoke, allowing me to move at twice my speed dodging the incoming strike from above with ease. I knew where it was coming from, what was happening next. I could tell the future! Kinda. Not really, but close to that.
"Oh, I'm known by many names. The Snake, the Fallen One, El Diablo, Darkness. But you can call me Judal. Those other names are a bit dramatic for my taste, and don't really suit someone like me. I'm a nice guy, you know?!"
Suddenly whilst moving, with a whip of the wand, The Flash of Konoha would be ambushed by four large dark Tigers. Black in color, their eyes red with bloodlust, and their eyes focused on their prey, they would emerge from in front of him (right and left) and two behind, respectively. Their pounce done with such grace, that they would quickly slam him into the ground, due to pressure of their heavy bodies. Their large teeth ravage him, ripping his throat apart, dragging his limbs from his body. At the same time, I would launch a mere single explosive kunai in an arc, aimed to explode upon reaching close range.
( Legilimency ) - Legilimency (Passive)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B - A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 20 - 30 ( -5 per turn for B rank, -10 for A rank )
Damage: N/A
Description: An innate and somewhat passive ability, Legilimency is the act of magically navigating through the many layers of a person's mind and correctly interpreting one's findings. Legilimens ( users of Legilimency ) are able to detect if a person is lying, as well as delve into their thoughts, emotions, and memories if their target is not skilled in blocking their minds. In most cases, this is not a harmful or detrimental ability, allowing the user a way to predict and understand the opponent's movements and actions with the utmost clarity. While it is similar to reading minds, it should be noted that Legilimency is not as simple as the muggle art of mind-reading; mind-reading assumes that one is simply eavesdropping on the thoughts currently running through the head of another. Legilimency, however, requires the wizard to navigate and move through the various areas of the brain. In it's lowest levels ( B rank ), the user is able to utilize it in a way similar to "mind reading", allowing the user to 'read' the opponent's current thoughts and ones related to them at that moment. This is the basic level of Legilimency and once active, lasts until the user ends it's usage. With training and power, this ability and range increases. At A rank power the user becomes capable of actual navigating the target's mind and it's many layers. This is as harmless as the B rank variant. However, despite all of this, this ability isn't without drawback. The A-Rank version requires the target to be within mid-range while the B-Rank version works up to long-range (one landmark for normal members, two for House Heads and three for the Headmaster).
Note: Although the B rank version is a passive ability honed when the user reaches Year 6, he cannot use the A rank and higher versions without actually actively using this jutsu.
Note: A rank usage can allow one to simply navigate the mind.
Note: A rank usage can only be used once every four turns, lasting 3 turns each usage and requiring a two turn usage break in between A rank and higher usages.
Note: Must place within bio stating the user is a Legilimens.
( Shutsubotsu ) - Apparition (passive variant)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B - S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 20 - 40
Damage: N/A
Description: Apparition is a magical method of transportation based upon the actions of Summoning and Reverse Summoning jutsu. Appearing as the user being twisted and swirled into nothing within a swirling clear haze, accompanied with a loud rustling or rushing sound, while usually ending in a crack, as if the subject(s)t is being sucked into a vortex, one must be completely determined to reach one's destination, and move without haste, but with deliberation. After first determining a position, the user focuses his mind solely on said location before channeling Mahou. Similarly to Summoning, the user uses his magic to mark the location he wishes to travel to before breaking his body into pure mahou itself, dispersing and moving rapidly and reforming in the new location. While seemingly powerful, this has drawbacks on how fast it is performed and when the user reforms in his new location. The user, despite disappearing instantly, can only reform instantly within short range. If the user is attempting to reform within mid range, it is down near instantly, taking as much time as it takes to launch a kunai. When appearing in long range, there is a noticeable lag in between disappearing and reappearing, taking twice as long as previously, or in clearer terms the time it takes to form a normal jutsu.
Alternatively, through this jutsu, Dark Wizards are able to use their Dark Arts power to achieve unsupported flight. The user has the ability to turn into and emanate black smoke, especially from his cloak, allowing him to levitate, float, and shoot through the air, even while partially transformed into it. Moving at twice his speed, this allows a Dark Wizard a chance to afflict damage whilst moving through air at high speeds. While in this gaseous form however, they are susceptible to wind jutsu, being used to knock them out of the form. Flight is a passive B ranked ability, however usage of it means the user cannot Apparate within the next two turns or that same one.
Note: A ranked usage denotes a short to Mid range usage. After each usage, the user cannot use for four turns.
Note: S rank usage denotes a long range movement, preventing usage of this for three turns and F rank Mahou spells in the same turn. S ranked variant can only be used 3 times in all.
Note: Only Dark Wizards can achieve flight and by choosing to use this, they cannot Apparate for two turns for every one turn usage of it, meaning if flight is used for two turns, they wont be able to use Apparition for 4 turns.
Genjutsu: Souzoubutsu Joushou Tora no Jutsu (Illusionary Technique: Manifest Rising Tiger Technique)
Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage: 60 (At the end of the 2 turns)
Description: After preforming the necessary seals (Hare → Boar → Dog → Tiger) The caster creates the illusion of four large bangle tigers rising from the ground below their opponent. The tigers will then proceed in a formation formation to pin down the opponent, sinking their claws and teeth into the legs, and upper body of their opponent (tigers may attack by biting into the lower ribs and kidney areas, the pectoral, arm and/or shoulder regions...will be specified by caster). The victim experiences several hundred lbs of force applied to them not to mention a powerful jaw strength, pinning them to the ground. The victim will naturally topple over in the real world from the illusion and the perceived force applied to him.
~Can only be taught by Reborn
~ Jutsu lasts 2 turns
~Renders victim unconscious after 2 turns from pure trauma (almost 2 tones of pressure, blood loss perceived)
~Can be used 2 times per battle
Minato would watch on still, analysing every action that was made. It was like the two fighters were both testing each other almost. Looking for a weakness too exploit, it was frankly thrilling and minato could not see a direct advantage to exploit. That left him with fewer options, he didn't want to rush in against this man especially since for some reason he had been unable to access his ftg technique lately. So he had to create an opening, that's when he heard it. The whooshing sound of wind, it was faint but unmistakable. It was close, so close in fact that he barely had time to react as he glanced over his shoulder seeing the bullet of wind aimed to tear through his left arm. The yellow flash was famed for his deductive and strategic mind and would display that here. With barely a moment to react he would with no handseals very briefly release a burst of chakra on the back of his arm specifically to stop and consume the wind bullet without being hugely visible, minato however would fake the bullet hitting clasping his arm as though in agony. The plan was simple, he would lure his foe in with a false sense of security while preparing a powerful counter attack.
The seal is created in the same timeframe as the technique on which it is used Usable 4 times per battle Cannot be used on techniques above S rank Can only be taught by Lee
This sword is an extension of its user and creator. The souls of those who came before watch over me.He tried to hide it behind a farce, I could see it. No blood spatter, not even the sound of the wind piercing his skin. I had fought many a foe before, did he really think such a ploy would work on me, a person who could literally read the minds of his opponent? No. He tried, though. I was another snake, the worst kind. The kind that would make any man shiver in his boots. A man of legend, really. A smile crossed my stoic face once more. This man was fun to fight, but would he be able to keep, I wonder? Nonetheless, with his release of a form of Ash from his sword, I would whip my wand forward as I speak the incantation. A blob of Water forms before me, translucent in nature, and large enough to encompass the Fire based attack. However, instead of waiting, it lashes forth with a signal of my wand, piercing through the Ash, as intricate patterns of Water based whips lash towards their intended target, the yellow haired Muggle. The whips twirl around the ash, as it engulfs it. Through the wand, once more, the Water based blob is enhanced with low frequency, high amplitude sound waves (happens in the same time frame), negating its weakness against Earth, allowing it to stand toe-to-toe with it. At the same time, making this technique quite efficient enough to actually be far stronger than the ash and enact pure destruction upon the man.

"So, the sword is important then?"
I asked, sarcastically. I had faced this before, with a younger girl. That sword was a problem. Nonetheless, without wasting time after my offense, I would once more utilize the incantation and slam my hands onto the ground. A barrier is formed around the Muggle, which drains his chakra and pushes him to the ground almost immediately. This would make him an easier target for the whips of Water which aim to pierce his then constrained body, and also make it difficult for him to mold efficient chakra to destroy it, at the same time. I, keep watch, scouring his mind passively, as I know he has a plan up his sleeve. He was no pushover, even without that sword, he had valid enough skill to be dangerous.
(Suiton: Hydragyrum boryūmu) - Water Release: Volumen Hydragyrum
Type: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive
Rank: A
Range: Short (Created in short, Mid range reach)
Chakra: 30 (-10 Chakra per turn)
Damage: N/A (60 if used Offensively) +20 = 80
Description: The user will perform a series of three hand seals ( Ram - Horse - Tiger ) and send water-based chakra in an area around them within short-range. He will materialize sticky water, similar to the water found in (Suiton: Mizuame Nababara) - Water Style: Starch Syrup Capture Field, and shape into the shape of a sphere. The water created in this technique differs from most water, where it has a shiny luster and acts as a mirror rather than being completely blue or translucent. The blob of water is quite useful and has two main abilities. Firstly, the blob, if within three meters of the user, acts as a near-instantaneous defense against a wide array of attacks. It is a sentient being that can grow in size, up to twice the size of the user and immediately cover the user (transparent from the inside) in a sphere of its own body (Shape is changeable to an extent; it could be a wall, block, cube, vortex-like shape, etc). The water body would be able to defend against a multitude of attacks by using its body, and more specifically, the sticky aspects of its composition. If a physical and tangible based attack, such as earth or earth based elements, is sent out by the target, that attack would stick into the blob's body and cling to it. If an energy based is released, like Fire, or Lightning, it would simply act as a normal Water Defense. A secondary ability sacrifices the blob itself. Through a single hand seal, a multitude of tentacles can burst forth from the main body of the blob up to mid-range. It is capable of grabbing a hold of enemies around the battlefield, and either pierce them, or grasp them and pull them into the main body. If the enemy is successfully trapped within the main body, the sticky-like composition of water would make it difficult to even move. The user can choose to keep the enemy within the body as a form of torture, or use chakra to increase the density of the water, which would easily crush a normal human.
Notes&Restricitons:
Note #1 The blob can only be created three times and lasts in the battlefield for up to three turns.
Note #2 The blob itself is a sentient being that can act on its own accord. It simply feeds from the users' chakra per turn to allow it to maintain the blob. Because of the constant donation of chakra, if it is not completely destroyed within one turn, then the blob would regenerate off of the users' chakra.
Note #3 The blob itself is relatively slow and moves at the user's walking speed.
Note #4 Can only be taught by EdwardSama
Note #5 The second ability is the only offensive component of this technique. The initial activation despite being near-instant is purely defensive in usage.
(Fuuin/Ototon: Tenrai Kainyū) - Sealing/Sound Release: Divine Intervention
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 20 (-5 per turn if used on techniques such as Stone Golem, etc)
Damage: N/A (+20 to Suiton)
Description: A technique created specifically to counteract the weaknesses of Water and Earth techniques, allowing them to become neutral to said weaknesses when this is used. The user will perform an additional handseal at the end of a Suiton/Doton technique, creating a seal upon said technique. Once created, the seal will release Sound waves that the user is capable of controlling in order to give his technique, depending on the element, different properties.
Suiton - having activated the seal, the user will create low frequency, high amplitude sound waves that pass through his technique, giving it destructive properties, that allow it to fight on equal terms with Doton. These waves vibrate faster by passing through the water while simultaneously 'coating' the technique with sound waves that 'repel' anything in contact with the water which allows it to become destructive.
Doton - differing from the Suiton version, the user will create sound waves that pass harmlessly through the Doton technique whilst the sound waves on the outer part of the technique can be altered to mimic the frequency given off by Lightning techniques used by your opponent, causing them to dissipate.
(Tajū Mugen Hōyō ) - Multiple Infinite Embraces
Rank: A-Rank
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 30 (-100 to the target per turn, +100 to user per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: This technique is a stronger version of Infinite Embraces and is used basically in the same manner. The user will do the Tiger → Dog → Horse → Dragon → Boar hand seals and slam his hands on the ground, creating a bigger barrier than the original technique but similar in its essence which drains the target's chakra but also pushes down on them making it much harder to break free. The massive pressure the technique puts on the target prevents the target from moving unless it has some sort of enhanced strength ability, making it very difficult to break free from it. Unable to move, the targets are also unable to mold chakra above A-Rank while having his chakra drained. The barrier can only be broken by A-Rank techniques or above or by attacking the user.
If we must up the tempo then so be it. But it seems to me you're more interested in hiding from me.
Minato would focus with his defenses activated as the opponent had vanished. His point blank was active and would alert him to danger leaving him with minimal time to react but thankfully he has his clone prepared and just the move in mind for his defense. Thus as the man breached his point blank with what appeared to be an enormous presence minato and his clone would act in unison swinging their blades forwards releasing a glass like tension layer of chakra covering 180 degrees in front of them and being back to back covers a total 360 radius the tension layer shatters dispersing in to 80 shards for each totalling 160 shards and 200 damage. More than enough to utterly destroy the opponents clone and continue on towards him wherever he is.
Minato would be unaware of the opponents survival for the moment however he was capable of feeling the chakra from the sealing jutsu activate thanks to the magnetic pull of the sword directing him towards the foreign chakra. This remained true when the opponent teleports, the chakra from this technique drawing the blade towards the opponents true location, minato realised this invisibility was a troublesome ability. That he needed to do something before he was caught off guard and thus after feeling the opponent move position minato would sheath his blade with his clone following suit activating a double version of the heavens illumination conquest summoning two tremendous pillars of chakra to descend to the field letting off enormous explosions levelling the entire terrain and presumably destroying anything in the vicinity.
Aight, thanks fam, you're still as good as they say. With your normal rank, you would have murdered me ;-;. Until next time u-u.
