[closed spar] time to finish the clash of the steel

Saito Hajime

post your bio and i will make the first move.

Saito needed to take some time for himself just for a little bit so he could step away from being a leader and just be a warrior. This was his origin, his father was one, and trained him from a young age to be wield the sword as if it was an extension of himself. But he must remember that with the great power that the sword has, the power to determine who lives and who dies was a not only a gift but also a curse that, if not wielded by a warrior disciplined in the way of bushido, could overcome the warrior and turn him into a blood-thirsty beast. This was another side of Saito that not many were able to see and live to tell about it.

These are the thoughts that crossed Saito's mind as he meditated, sitting in the lotus position, legs crossed and back straightened, and head bowed. Knowing his weakness and overcoming it, like the opponent plans to do once he arrives is what his meditation process consisted of. This is what keeps Saito going and humble. But most of all this is what keeps Saito Human while traveling "The Way of The Sword."

Saito continues to sit and meditate with his swords laid out on the ground before him until his opponent arrives.

enters the vicinity of the meditating swordsman quite calmly. Which was unlike his character, he usually walked with pep in his step being the cocky person he was. He held a small tanto in his right hand, swinging it around at his wrist as he walked. Nothing in particular on his mind, only that he was meeting a fellow swordsman to spar today. It hadn't been a long walk and his energy wasn't near touched.

As he laid eyes on the man, with his swords before him his heart skipped a small beat- a sudden rush of excitement ran over him. This would be his first spar, and he was already liking the looks of it. Plus, he'd never fought a person who carried more than one blade, this would add spice to the spar no doubt. He quickly tossed the tanto over his head as he put on a pair of black open finger gloves on each hand. The second the left glove went on the sword fell into the hand as if clockwork. He smirked at the oblivious man who seemed to deliberately ignore his previous display.

"Hey there, geezer, I'm guessing you're my opponent today? Did you bring paper to wipe the tears?"

With that he allowed his torso to sort of twist to his right as his feet remained straight, this would mean his right foot would now be 'before' him and his left foot behind. His grip was two handed on the tanto right over left as he held it lateral to his ear and eyes. Its shiny finish gleaming brilliantly.

"I'll give you a minute to gather that chakra and bravery" He chuckled a bit at the thought.

Wakizashi · Feb 1, 2015

Saito sensed the presence of another. This caused him to break his meditation and opening his eyes and look directly at what is to be his opponent. He grabbed his Katana and his Wakizashi and placed it to his right hip and he returned to his feet. with opponent stopping mid range before him.

"I'll give you a moment to gather that chakra and bravery," said the man before him.

His statement prompted Saito to respond with, Samurai live majority of their life on the battlefield, seeing each battle that could possibly be their last. So bravery is something that i don't need to gather. It's you that should gather bravery since you are fighting a warrior with nothing to lose.

Santo then spiked his chakra and focused it to the soles of his feet before dashing to his opponent with his left hand over the hilt of his katana. once He reached the opponents immediate location, Saito placed his right hand on the scabbard with the thumb on the guard unlocking the katana before drawing it with his left hand and swing in an upwards diagonal slash from right to left cutting the opponent from the left lower abdomen to the right shoulder. if connected the extra strength from the gathered momentum of the dash will briefly lift the opponent off the ground.

Santo then follows with a jumping spinning backwards kick with his left foot to the opponent's abdomen with enough strength from the rotational momentum to push the opponent a couple of meters away from Saito before his back hits the ground.

"Samurai live majority of their life on the battlefield, seeing each battle that could possibly be their last. So bravery is something that i don't need to gather. It's you that should gather bravery since you are fighting a warrior with nothing to lose. "

True words echoed from the mouth of the man he had disturbed, but he couldn't help but feel callous. So what if you don't harbor courage? That doesn't make you more talented than me! He thought. As he allowed his body to relax after tensing so long he saw the man dash towards him, the speed, the power in his step. It was incredible, this was the power of Iado! Having his tantō already drawn and poised he barely had time to push his right hand hand forward with the blade and then downwards- allowing the tip to point to the ground while having the blade vertical to his face. His left hand then went in an outwards palm motion and held the back of the blade to reinforce it, preparing for the attack. As the samurai's blade clashed with his the sound of steel on steel was unmistakable. It rang out among the quiet with perfect clarity, shattering the silence and replacing it with tension. The very same tension that could be heard as Kyōsuke struggled to keep his blade in position as the foreign steel pressed against it with the force of a rhino.

"Such....power!"

The strike was enough to lift his nimble body off the ground, slightly. As he felt both feet lose contact with the earth he knew he was at a disadvantage. The blade released its mighty pressure and he felt his muscled rejoiced from the strain, he then saw the man twist his body mid air while preparing his left foot- having it tucked against his body. Kyōsuke then used readied his left hand which was still outstretched having supported the tantō, as the kick came inbound he immediately sent his hand, still in open palm style, downwards towards the earth as his right hand removed the tantō from before his face. The palm connected with the heel of the man's left foot sending the entire leg into the ground with great force. Being a backward kick in nature it would be your toe that slammed into the ground, then your knee, then your body would follow.

But it wasn't done there, using the counterbalance of his foot, Kyōsuke then stretched his palm out fully, making sure to guide your leg into the ground, possibly breaking it. He then used the momentum of his thrust to send his body in a frontward spin, being higher than his opponent he wouldn't end up smashing into the ground during the spin. It quickly developed into a front flip as he tucked in his feet and arms. This would take place the moment the foot connected with the ground. Using this newly gained spinning momentum Kyōsuke then unfolded, having his tantō in his mouth now between clenched teeth he stretched his right hand outwards and balled it into a fist. The fist would come crashing down on the samurai's side area, specifically the ribs. It was powerful enough to cause some cracks and combined with the frontal spinning motion it would be sure to have the man's entire body in the dirt.

Wakizashi · Feb 1, 2015

As Saito's left leg touches the ground and he noticed his opponent is spinning to add more power to his attack, Saito then crouches low to the ground while sheathing his katana to duck below his opponent's swing of his right fist and outstretching his right leg before unleashing a backward leg sweep, causing his opponent to be unbalanced as he sweeps both feet off the ground.

Without hesitation Saito unlocks his katana from his scabbard, quickly draws his katana and two-handed swing his katana downward on the trachea of the opponent's falling body with the weight of his body and the power the swing behind it to decapitate his opponent and end the match without any second thought.

I apologize for ending your life, fellow warrior. I will not forget your bravery you shown in this battle.

Santo then draws his blade over his shoulder before swinging it down to the ground to his left side to swing the blood off of his blade before sheathing his blade into his scabbard.

Zaphkiel · Feb 1, 2015

After sending the man's foot into the ground and away from his person Kyōsuke's punch had missed completely. Something he wasn't anticipating, this was the height of human endurance, the way how the man quickly captured his body's movement from the grasp of physics and ducked low under his punch, it was astonishing. But he had no time to gawk in awe at the physical prowess of the samurai, instead his mind snapped at attention. It was time to accept stimuli that could point him to the next move of the man, this was definitely a peculiar position to be in.

As his revolution ended and his feet were firmly on the ground, the man who was already crouched then made a devastating sweep kick at them. He had barely any options, his body was just getting used to the solid earth again, he wasn't in any shape for a 'brilliant' comeback. Instead, He used all his might to lift his feet off the ground again. With his tantō still in his mouth he wasn't confined. His jump pushed him high above the sweeping kick, with both arms outwards like the wings of and eagle and both legs tucked against his abdomen Kyōsuke then outstretched his right foot, being so close to the man the kick would take less than a second to connect with his opponent's face. He would then press down on the unfortunate face of the man and use it as a footstool to back flip away from the encounter, landing a few meters behind him while the man would, from the power of the kick, fly in the opposite direction head over heels.

Wakizashi · Feb 1, 2015

As Saito notices that his backwards sweep kick didn't connect he returned facing the opponent as the opponent was mid-air with his legs drawn to his abdomen. Saito could tell what was coming next and Knew he had no chance to avoid with the position that he was in. he could only block and lessen the impact of the kick that was coming. Saito then draw both his hands before his face and spiked his chakra before focusing it to his both his feet again.

Saito catches the kick directed to his face that had strength to push him back before he stops himself by placing one of his chakra enhanced feet behind him before moving his hands in a circular motion to divert his kick off to the side before griping his opponents foot with both hands and swinging and throwing is opponent behind him several meters away.

Upon releasing his opponent Saito draws his katana from the scabbard while channeling chakra through it and sharpening the cutting edge with it and swing the chakra off the katana in the shape of a cresent blade that follows the opponent across the air and cutting him before he crashes down face against the ground.

Zaphkiel · Feb 2, 2015

He was certain the kick would have landed! But how?! Just how much of a beast was this samurai? The way he angled his body, diverting his attacks he truly was a force to be reckoned with. He felt his kick connect though, but it was with the face of the man like he hoped instead it was on the back hand of his hands- a block. Still in the air, foot outstretched he saw the man reinforce himself then gripped his right leg.

"?!!"

To his surprise the man's grip was otherworldly, he placed both feet firmly and then threw his body over his head and behind him. Tsk, he's definitely stronger, and faster in some aspects. This might prove a challenge. As his body flew through the air he quickly regained his bearings and took the blade from his mouth. He stretched his legs for landing but as he looked up he saw the inevitably approaching chakra wave. This took him by surprise but there was no need to fear with his tantō in hand. He quickly channeled his own chakra and released two well shaped crimson slices in the form of an X pattern to disperse the menacing enemy wave. All this while mid air, his feet finally touched ground- very gingerly and he winced at his own body weight landing on the ball of his heels. He slid back a few more inches before coming to a halt mid ranged from the samurai.

He then flexed his right ankle, checking for any sprain of the sort, it was ok. But blocking the strike from earlier made his wrists swore and his left palm throbbing, he had definitely underestimated the power. He then began weaving the tantō between his fingers, it's blade singing the familiar song of death as it sliced the air in a sonorous tone. He then brought the showcase to a halt, pointing the tip towards the samurai suddenly. The sudden stop displaced the very air around him, sending a slight gust of wind onto the samurai's face, slightly blowing his hair from his forehead, he didn't flinch though- that was good.

"You're one for the books, I must have your name, samurai."

Wakizashi · Feb 2, 2015

Saito stood and watched after tossing his opponent overhead and send a wave of chakra to finish him off. with the explosion of chakra he expected to see his opponent laying on the ground. Unfortunately for him the dust cleared with his opponent standing upright and pointing his to Saito. His demeanor didn't change but inside he was pleased to know that his opponent is someone that could stand after that combination.

"You're one for the books, I must have your name, samurai." Said the opponent.

Saito was pleased to be praised in such a manner. it's been since the years of the samurai wars that scarred the earth and covered in blood of man since he had received praise from his opponent before their life. That action reminded him of those times. He returned to the present and pointed his katana to his opponent with a menacing smirk as he spoke these.

I'm the lone wolf of the Land of Iron, Saito Hajime. If you are still on my humble side of myself by the end of the battle then you can tell others you know about our battle.

following the dialogue, Saito then draws his katana over his right shoulder before swing to outside his left left allowing a dense coat of sharp chakra to engulf his katana before he makes a large leap with both hands on the hilt and his katana draw over his head before rapidly, repeatedly, flipping forward with a high velocity as he closed the distance between him and his opponent before suddenly cutting the opponent multiple times before landing behind the opponent in a crouching position and sheathing his katana. That cues the spewing blood flowing from his slashes collapsing from the blood-lost if the attack connects.

Zaphkiel · Feb 3, 2015

"I'm the lone wolf of the Land of Iron, Saito Hajime. If you are still on my humble side of myself by the end of the battle then you can tell others you know about our battle."

Jotting the words down in a little notebook he listened intently, such a specimen of a person, he thought. After he was done and put away the book he sees the man advancing on him in a high velocity spin. His entire mass appeared as a blue ball as his chakra from the blade made rings in the air. He knew the chakra coating had to be high ranked, the way it sliced through the air while advancing on him was enough to make even the greatest warrior weak in the knee.

He didn't fret though, as the spinning ball of death only went one direction. It's linear path was nothing to fear, only evasion was the true predicament. No, he thought, he was done running. Time to show this denizen of the blade he was more than capable too! He sent a wave of Raiton chakra to his arm and subsequently his blade, causing it chirp to life with the iconic sound of tiny birds as the lightning danced from it's tempered steel finish into the atmosphere. He then slowed himself, breathing in and out he allowed his mind to relax.. The before 'ball of death' slowed down into a man flipping forwards with a chakra coated blade. He saw clearly just what the situation was, and what must be done. He held his Chidori channeled blade horizontal to his face and braced the backside with his left hand just like he did previously. He would appear to be praising his blade, having it carefully held with both hands and holding skywards. Then he bent his legs and braced for impact, his sturdy stance and tantō connected with the downward thrust of Saito's blade. Creating another ringing effect among the silence, this time the sound of Raiton was involved. As time seemed to pause and the strength of both men were put to the test again through their steel he sent his blade upwards and force the samurai and his blade upwards as well, using his bent knees to release the energy needed. But spinning in a clockwise manner Kyosuke's parry would push the man counter clockwise.

As he did this, parrying and sending the samurai counter clockwise he jumped and twisted his body. To the point where his back faced the man before outstretching his right foot as his left foot tucked against his body. The kick would connect with the man's stomach and not only not the wind from his lungs but sending him flying backwards into nowhere.

Wakizashi · Feb 6, 2015

As his opponent pushes his sword away Saito chakra-enhanced kicks off his opponent's chest leaving him briefly disorienting and propelling him higher into the air. While mid-air Saito continues to channel chakra through his katana and sharpening the cutting edge before pointing His sword downwards and dropping down from above the opponent drilling the chakra coated katana through the opponent's throat and out an vertebrae.

Saito then kicks off of his opponent's lifeless body as he pulls the katana out of the body before it falls backwards and Saito safely lands on the ground. He then swing his sword to the ground to remove the blood from his katana before sheathing his blade.

I enjoyed the battle...

Zaphkiel · Feb 6, 2015

As Kyōsuke manages to parry the swordsman yet again he feels a powerful stomp in his sternum, the man was using him as a foot stool to gain height! The kick was also chakra aided, he could feel himself almost crumple under the weight and pressure. By the time he could deduce what the kick push was for he saw the samurai position his parried blade downwards with the tip pointing at his face!

Using the push from the foot Kyōsuke allowed his body to fall backwards, he even hastened the process by using the heel of his feet to push at an angle to send him downwards and backwards. This would be faster than what the samurai anticipated, and the time he brought his blade down Kyōsuke would have already landed on his back and flip over with the momentum to end on his feet in a crouched position, a sort of backwards roll. He would be sure to time this with the blade's descent so by the time the blade came down it wouldn't mean Kyōsuke's head area as intended but rather the ground, and with such force it would surely become lodged in the hard surface.

"Thus begins the slaughter!"

As Kyōsuke rolled back and watched the man fail his kill move he readied his tantō, channeling chakra through it again as he quickly closed the gap in a single lunge. As the man would have had to take time out to retrieve his lodged blade Kyosuke was already on him, ducking with a low center of gravity he delivered a diagonal slash from low left to upper right, sending the man into the air. As this happens, the dust that had gathered from Kyosuk's sudden burst of speed finally cathces up and almost covers him, he then disappeared in a blur and reappeared above the man, tanto in hand. With a quick exhale he then placed his left palm on the bottom of the blade hilt as he thrust it into the samurai's back along with a spinning motion- sending him back to the ground a lump of lacerated flesh.

Wakizashi · Feb 7, 2015

Saito misses his mark which is something that is rare. Instead of impaling his opponent he stabbed the ground that he previously stood on. of course his swords was lodge and his intentions were to release it from the ground. That was before he noticed his opponent lunging to him in a burst of speed. He was once again in an awkward position which was something he was not found of.

Saito decided to leave his katana in the ground as His opponent is getting closer. When the opponent makes preparations for the attack, Saito places his left hand on the handle of his wakizashi before spinning on one foot while drawing it before swinging his sword outwards to slash everything around him including his opponent with his chakra charge wakizashi. It would be difficult to avoid because the opponents linear movement would be hard to discontinue against with the suddeness of the speed of the iado.

hehehehe! This is getting exciting!

Saito says with a bloodthirsty look on his face slowly revealing his alter ego

Zaphkiel · Feb 13, 2015

As Kyōsuke dashed towards the opponent he saw him pull a wakizashi from his waist, and channeled chakra through it! He was taken by surprise but not so much anymore, this samurai was definitely skilled in all the areas, that's why he always had a back up plan. As the man then began to swing from right to left (he's left handed) Kyōsuke channeled chakra into his feet and tantō, abandoning the initial end he had devised for the swordsman, he then stepped on his sword which was firmly stuck in the ground and pressed with all his force to not only leap over the now spinning samurai but he also pressed the sword so deep into the ground only the handle could be seen. By now the dust would have enveloped them both, obscuring vision somewhat.

Mid air, and over the would be surprised opponent with his feet facing the sky and his head facing downwards looking on the skull of the samurai, Kyōsuke then released 2 crescent shaped blades of crimson chakra from his tantō in rapid succession. This would be done the split second of his somersault. As he landed a few feet behind the samurai he then hopped back a few more feet to see what was to become of the samurai from the dust.

Wakizashi · Feb 14, 2015

after finishing his attack and quickly sheathing the wakizashi while the opponent was airborne, Saito noticed the opponent release two arcs of chakra towards him from above. most in the position Saito was in would have been worried but Saito was different. Saito predicted the opponent trajectory before taking a chakra enhanced leap towards his opponent while still invoking the samurai sabre technique allowing him to skillfully deflect the crescents of chakra without difficulty before quickly resheathing his wakizashi.

Saito then continues to ascend toward his opponents at speeds he could barely track before passing the opponent and quickdraw attacking the opponent without him noticing with a lightning covered wakizashi. Saito then lands safely on his feet before the opponent falls to the ground still twiching from the electrifying shock of his attack. The lightning covering Saito's blade vanishes and Saito sheathes his wakizashi back into the scabbard. Saito then casually walks to his katana before pulling it out of the ground and sheathing it into the scabbard as well.

You fought well. But this battle has ended in my favor.

Zaphkiel · Feb 15, 2015

Being mid air Kyōsuke witnessed the man coat his sword to deflect the crescent projectiles, as expected, he thought. But at the sight of the second crescent shaped projectile being parried he readied his blade after forming the Ram hand seal and released it, throwing it around his person, allowing it to create and ride a strong gust of counterclockwise wind. This would be enough wind to rise the man off his feet as the nearly untraceable blade sung through the air with the warriors tune- death. It would quickly slice the man clean in half based on Kyōsuke's positioning in respect to the samurai which is for the most part perpendicular. It was a quick maneuver and happens right as the man re sheathed his wakizashi and was preparing for his next move.

Wakizashi · Feb 16, 2015

Saito's opponent picked the perfect timing to weave his handseal allowing him to perform his jutsu, but with the speed of his quickdraw technique he is still able to strike. The only change is that instead of striking the opponent he strikes the revolving tanto throw off it's trajectory. Since all this is happening in mid-air but Saito loses his positioning and crashes to the ground during the little pain from roughly hitting the ground. No matter, as long he didn't take damage from a cut of his opponent's blade.

Saito somewhat stumbles as he gets back to his feet but that is not because of his weak heart but his body's reminder that he is human. Meanwhile, Inside, Saito's adrenaline begins to pump thru his veins and his demeanor begins to change into something that he has been struggling to keep inside the entire battle. The stoic, humble, honor filled swordsman quickly changed to the blood thirsty, power hungry, mass murderer that released a loud maniacal laugh followed by a sinister smile to the opponent. the battle was gonna change quickly, and Saito didn't give the opponent to adjust. Saito has now transformed to the lone wolf inside.

The wolf then draws his wakizashi with his right hand and forming a katana with pure chakra in his left hand before crossing both his hands before his chest and invokes both swords with the samurai sabre and making a chakra enhanced dash to his opponent at great speed. when he reaches close range, the wolf makes an outward swing from left to right with his wakizashi following with the downward swing with his chakra katana. This deals two consecutive fatal blows at great speed leaving the opponent looking maned like if an actual wolf attacked him. That was his signature mark before howling to the sky over his opponent's lifeless body.

HHOOOOOOWWWWLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!

Zaphkiel · Feb 16, 2015

Kyōsuke saw the man quickly deflect his blade with a rather astoundingly fast flick of his wrist. The sound of steel rang yet again as his tantō spun counter it's initial path going now clockwise instead of counter clockwise and back into his hand. But as he reassured his grip on his blade he witnessed something else, something out of this world, literally. The man had changed completely, his muscles, his voice, his height! It was almost as if he had transformed into a beast, a beast who lusted blood of it's foes. Kyōsuke felt his heart double in breathing, what was this he was feeling? This gripping emotion that seemed to paralyze every muscle within him from his toes to his scalp. Was this....fear? He could suddenly feel the sweat of his palm on the handle of the sword, the sticking of his wet hair on his forehead, and his clothes which were now plastered to his skin through vigorous movements. Was this his limit?

"Kukukuku.....are you always this pathetic? Do you plan on dying here...boy?"

"K-Kuro! No! You can't be here, I don't need you to win!" He defiantly resisted the inner demon in his mind.

"Oh? When have you ever won a fight without me?" A tentative reply came.

"....."

"You....need me!" The demon howled, and so did Kyōsuke.

He could feel the power surging through his veins, the vice of fear no longer crushed him whole. He was now a new soul, one that was shrouded in darkness and death. His hair suddenly riling up from the release of chakra, his pupils dilated to the point where his entire eyeball was now black. A fanged smirk rose up his lips, his voice was no longer his own. As he landed rather roughly on the terrain once more his head flicked to the direction of The Wolf. His tantō sparked to life with Raiton chakra, illuminating his alien face with a glow of blue, his black eyes looked like oil being caressed by the erratic light. The chakra pouring from his person sent tiny pebbles flying as he dashed towards the opponent as well. Both demons locked in mortal combat the air seemed to go still as the foul chakra from both men contaminated nature itself.

Kuro didn't parry the man beast's swings as would have been expected though instead, in all his speed Kuro swings his tantō from left to right in an outwards arc while slightly stepping to the left of the man (his right). Bracing on his right foot Kuro manages to not only side step the outwards swing of left to right but also the downward strike from the chakra enhanced blade in the man's left hand, Kuro then swung his blade, almost in the true art of Iado, because for a split second it appeared as if he had sliced through the wolf, having gained his weak spot. A silhouette of both souls appeared, with Kuro being ending his swing a few inches behind the man. From an outsider's POV it would appear Kuro had dodged and struck but in reality his blade had intentionally missed it's mark of the The Wolf's stomach, instead he then he then braced his left leg, right behind the left leg of the opponent and began swinging his body- having storing all the momentum in his right leg during the sidestep. He turned and released a a great portion of stored chakra into the back of the man beast, still having the Raiton coating the feint strike would be enough to slice this vile beast clean in two laterally along the spine.

With his battle sense heightened by the change, as the wolf made his move to strike the opponent, he noticed a small movement made by the opponent while he makes his two consecutive strikes. The wolf smirked at his opponents efforts to best him but in the end he makes a powerful spin to avoid the strike leaving him vulnerable leaving the opponent is continuing to attack in front but instead he strikes his opponent across the chest with his wind covered weapons thanks to his harmony skill.

He then finished the battle with a thrust of his wakizashi to the abdomen before stabbing again with the chakra blade before looking into his opponents pitch black eyes with a sinister fang filled smile. wolf then aggressively pulls both swords from his opponents body before his opponent falls on his back covered in his own block as it spews from his stomach.

As Kuro had made his way to the backside of his opponent he was almost certain that a blind spot was achieved. But to his dismay he saw the samurai begin a devastating rotation to fatally maim him. He immediately channeled his Raiton into his tantō and held it vertical to his face and perpendicular to the incoming swing but instead of bracing it with his left hand he used his left shoulder to support the back of the blade having held it a little over his head with the tip pointing towards his bent knee. However, being much to close for comfort Kuro sort of exaggerated the clash of swords, allowing himself to sort of skid backwards using the brute strength of the man as momentum while his own body sort of provided a push as well. He had calculated just the right amount of force he needed to move out of the man's immediate range, he would then see the man perform another slash coated in Futon at nothing but the air.

(Chō Biburāto Raitontō) - Super Vibrating Lightning Release Sword

Type: Supplementary

Range: Short

Chakra cost: 20

Description: The user channels their lightning chakra into a blade, increasing its vibrating frequency and giving it more cutting power than standard wind techniques.

His shoulders then slumped before his head flicked up and stared the samurai dead in the soul with the eyes of the abyss. Then in a truly sinister motion he held the blade horizontal to his face and licked the remaining Raiton from it's steel finish, all while keeping his eyes peeled on the opponent.

"I'll end you here today, scum.."

[closed spar] time to finish the clash of the steel
