[Ken] Cloud Kenjutsu with Zanda

Show me your blade..........

 

[Troi]

Paimon starts to slowly draw her sword from the left side of her hip with her left hand, not her main hand... After the sword is about halfway out of its casing, she quickly draws it, slashing the air in a fancy yet precise manner, showing off her mastery with this style. While keeping eye contact with her sensei, she ducks and sweeps her right leg, switching the hand her sword is in from left to right, aligning the sword right on top of her extended right leg and ducking oh so low. Following the sweeping motion as her sword follows right on top, blades of grass fly into the air as she shaves every bit of grass around her in half. As she comes around to a full circle, she starts to stand back up, regaining her posture and then points her sword to her master's throat, only inches away. She performed all of this without even breaking a sweat as she smirked just a tad, knowing she did too much. But only to impress her sensei, of course.

Smirking as the blade is held mere inches away from my throat, I suddenly vanish in a cloud of smoke leaving my student in her previous stance but now facing a log. She would then feel the coldness of my steel pressed against the left side of her neck, the dull part of the blade making contact, while being held in my left hand as I talk to her in a dark and low tone of voice. Well done my student. Your sword proficiency shows that you indeed belong to my village, and with that being said, this is the first move that you will learn.

( Kumo-Ryū Damashigiri no Jutsu ) - Cloud Style Deception Beheading Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: Using the Body Replacement Technique to feign being attack, the user then takes advantage of their opponent's momentary shock, and charges forward with a lateral sword slash.
Note: Can only be used or taught by a Kumogakure bio.

I'm assuming a move like this would count towards your substitution limit, but it is a great version to use when longing to deliver a counter attack on an enemy that may "seem" like they are in an advantageous spot. Taking my blade off of your body and moving it to my side, I examine you from head to toe before moving closer behind you in order to whisper in your ear. This training will be rough, hard, and unpleasant, but its end result will be the birth of a true shinobi......A true shinobi from the cloud. I then push you 3m forwards with my right hand before dashing closer towards you at a lowered position in order to deliver a horizontal slash to you lower abdomen area as I use my expertise to rotate the blade in my hand so that the blade is now pointing horizontally to the left as I make my move.
