Flash07 vs Better [Tournament of The Griffin Three]

Ok to be more clear...
Location: Plain grass field, lake to my right at mid-distance and to your left at mid-distance. Cool?
We are standing at mid-range from each other.
Taking note of the location, his distance from his opponent, his opponents' skill set, the atmosphere,etc. Shikamaru quickly slams his hands on the ground and summons a massive amount of water in a 4x4 square meter area surface (if seen from below) and 10 meters above his opponent. The total amount of water summoned would easily drown a huge giraffe.
As this water was summoned at such a great height, and considering the amount of water that was summoned which actually increases the force, the opponent would easily be crushed under the heavy weight of the water. As the water comes and falls right over his head, it would break his neck and heavily damage his shoulders and completely make him loose his balance.
(Suiton: Haran Banshō) - Water Release: Stormy Blockade
As soon as the water is summoned, Shikamaru takes out 3 kunais and a flashbomb in each of his hand. He throws the kunais, right at at his opponent, targeting his head, chest, and abdomen among other vital parts. With the same swing of his hand, he throws the two flashbombs 3 meter away from him, towards his right and left slightly behind his back. One of the kunai thrown at him was a special kunai (which ofc he wouldn't know). This kunai was targeted at the shadow of his leg formed just below/behind him. While two of the other kunais contained explosive tags attached to them which would go off on Shikamaru's command. This whole series of actions are performed in a quick succession.
The flashbombs go off in a moment which blinds Gin. Also, the bright light coming from the bombs would make the shadows formed by the water attack (if any) to fall behind Gin. So it would be impossible for him to know that there's something coming at him from above by looking at the shadows.
Taking advantage of the situation that his opponent is in, and to make a nice Earth-water combo, Shikamaru again slams his hands to the ground and creates sharp stone spikes to emerge from the ground. The stone spikes are created in such a way that, most of them emerge from below him, skewing him up, damaging his legs heavily while couple of them emerge from behind him, targeting his spine, which would basically hit him hard and stop his movements paralysing him completely.
The spikes were made to force his opponent into using lightening technique so that he may get electrocuted by his own jutsu as/when it comes in contact with water.
(Doton: Ganchūsō) - Earth Release: Stone Spikes
Note that in all of the above actions, Shikamaru is kneeling down right from the moment he summoned the large amount of water. So he wastes no time on movements of his body.
Quickly without wasting a second, Shikamaru forms a rat handseal and traps Gin in his shadows. This is done via the special kunai that he threw earlier. Also this is done totally in conjunction with the stone spikes which would make him unable to move and thus get hit by the spikes.

Shikamaru then stands up, taking out a kunai and holds it in a reverse grip position as he waits for his opponent to respond.
Show me what you've got bro....
Location: Plain grass field, lake to my right at mid-distance and to your left at mid-distance. Cool?
We are standing at mid-range from each other.
In the morning, as Shikamaru waits for his opponent, he sees a skinny man O_O coming towards him.
I wonder if its him...
As the person comes more closer to him, Shikamaru notices the narrow slits of his eyes glaring him with blood lust, his silver hair dangling on his head dancing to the wind as he realizes its him.
Hey there, I've been waiting for you....I know its troublesome and having me as your opponent ain't much fun either, but.........anyways lets do this right?
Having heard about his opponent before, Shikamaru knows, that he's a steel element user. Being a clever fellow that he is, he sure does his homework well.
(I don't know why do I always get into fights) :sy:
Shikamaru formulates a strategy as his opponent reaches mid range from him. For him, this battle doesn't have much importance, but to attain his objective,he must overcome this challenge U_U

---------------------
Gin approaches the battlefield arms crossed and watches you talk
You must be registered for see images
Obviously you've heard of me, and all i know is that you like shadows
The moment you slam your hand in the ground, Gin unfolds his arms and prepares, he hears rushing water from above and looks up to see water falling, he then crosses his right arm over his body and make a punching motion that to the left, send a whirland that sends him forward to the right, towards the water source. Successfully avoiding your attack from above and unknowingly the rest of them. (idk if I avoid the kunai's but i'll take care of that too). As soon as i launch myself, I know that i'll be able to avoid the water, so after i use the whirlwind, in flawless succession, i move my right arm back in a swiping motion releasing a wind blade at you kneeling down to slice through you. I land on the water source watching you intently the entire time.

P.S. the wind blade would take care of all kunai
Lets see what you do
Lol yeah xd couldn't get anything better to explain
Bdw when you punch to your left, you go right and away from the water source.
The moment Gin releases his wind chakra, and dodges the water from above, a slight smirk spreads across Shikamaru's face. It looked like everything was going according to his plan.
As the water falls on the ground, it causes a loud splashing noise and bursts into every direction considering the amount of water that was summoned. Even Gin, while escaping gets wet from his left side. This makes him vulnerable to lightening attacks.
Also, the moment Gin gets out of the harms way of the water, he gets blinded by the bright flashbombs. As the thrown kunais reach him, Shikamaru notices that gin has released wind blades towards him O_O
Noticing the condition that he is in, Shikamaru activates the seal on the explosive tag on the kunai which explodes as soon as it comes in contact with the blades. This causes a huge explosion and blocks Gin's view even if he regains his sight later.
Amidst all this commotion, quickly without wasting a second, with a single handseal, Shikamaru releases 4 spears of lightening that takes care of the blades effortlessly and continues towards Gin. The spears are released in two groups. The first one, a single spear, which takes care of the wind blade. The second group containing 3 spears that continue towards Gin. The spears are released in a very short span of time, considering that it only requires a single handseal. The spears are released in such a manner that even if he dodges by moving a bit to the right/left, he'd be hit. The spears would pierce Gin's body and damage his body heavily when hit.

Descripton: The user after performing the hand seal snake emits lightning in the shape of a spear from their hands whilst kakuzu lightning mask emits it from its mouth, which then pierces the enemy. Its destructive power is great enough to even pierce through rock; meaning it has a high killing potential. The user can increase the number of spears to attack multiple enemies. This, coupled with the sheer speed of the lightning, makes it a difficult technique to evade. This strong attack can be defended against by an equally strong attack of the same element such as Raikiri.

Knowing that the lightening attack being so quick, and also when the opponent doesn't know that its coming, its most probably gonna hit, Shikamaru plans his next move. As Shikamaru waits for the air to clear up, he runs to his left, to more that 5 meters while performing a couple of handseals. He quickly makes it rain over the entire area. The rain, being linked with his senses, provides the exact location of his opponent.

-----------------------------------------------------
Gin gets blinded by the flashbombs, but later regains his sights as soon he does the bombs go off, but this has no effect on him physically, so he stays come. Now he knows all his senses are working except his sight ( due to the explosion), he focuses on his hearing, he hears the crackling of lightning and he knows he's in trouble, he also has this cloud of smoke that's bothering his vision, so he decides to get rid of them both. He fires a large scale wind attack that takes our the smoke and then your lightning all together. Thus enabling Gin to see Shikamaru and watch him make hand seals to form the rain.

Gin now stands there watching Shikamaru as the rain falls, he assumes this rain is his doing and its chakra infused.
My oh My, ain't this lovely, reminds me of Amegakure, Konoha Shinobi, I think its time we wrap this up.

Note: Technique creates its own water source
As soon as the water is finished without a moments waste up he follows up by pillars shoot out from all around you up to the size of gamabunta. They come out in a circular formation around you and all from underneath you as you are bound in water. The spikes i made shoot up so that all the points would it in the air above you, so if you were to shoot upwards you would be stabbed while in the air. Because of the previous jutsu if you counter by lightning you would be shocked to death by the water.

So what do I do with the water???
My main intention was to get you wet and so, I summoned such a large amount of water :|
But anyway, lets continue
Never knew you were in Ame O_O
But whatever, its past...
As the rain falls, Shikamaru notices Gin standing in front of him with the smoke having disappeared, he knows that Gin can see him clearly as well. With the first part of his plan having worked out, Shikamaru starts focusing on his next move.
Quickly Shikamaru notices water forming at his legs, that start to come up forming an intense pressured bubble as he waits longer. So without wasting a second, Shikamaru channels his doton chakra through his legs creating stone pillars that erupt from beneath the ground. The sharp spikes are created in such a way that they do not hurt Shikamaru but passes by the sides of his legs, bursting the water bubble and taking him out of danger.

Once successfully out of the water bubble, Shikamaru feels the earth trembling.
(An Earth jutsu?? Shit this is bad...First having me covered in water, then using the Earth jutsu to restrict my usage of lightening technique....the opponent is good)
Being a genius that he is, Shikamaru quickly understands what his enemy wants from him and also deduces that its most probably an earth jutsu or it could even be a summoning.
Taking up a possibility of both the cases, he plans on his next move.
(I should put the pressure back on him)
Having thought of an excellent plan to defend against the unknown and also to put some pressure on Gin, Shikamaru releases a vortex of wind around him. He combines/coats the vortex with his lightening chakra. This strong vortex, as the pillars rise up, turn them into dust and also, due to the intense rotation of the vortex, the water is thrown away from Shikamaru's body.
Note: The initial wind effect takes away/blasts the water away. Also the vortex is 5 feet away/around him. So it doesn't really touch him.
As the pillars, keep on rising, the vortex keeps on destroying it. As this is happening, Shikamaru manipulates his chakra to form a dragon's head that looks towards Gin. In no time, the dragon head leaps towards Gin, opening its mouth to devour him. As the dragon touches Gin, it leaves him electrocuted and burnt on the frontal side.
Note: The spikes created by Shikamaru also gets destroyed in the process.

Assuming what Gin's reply to that attack would be, Shikamaru takes out three kunai with explosive tags and throws them in an arc above that would fall at Gin at his head. The tags would go off on Shikamaru's mental command. Quickly, with a single handseal, Shikamaru releases an intense blast of wind and fire combo at Gin, that would complement his previous lightening attack. This huge blast of fire takes out everything and anything lying in its path towards Gin. Ofc, this would take out Gin in one go if it touches him.

This huge blast takes out both Shikamaru and Gin's view of each other. Taking an advantage of that, Shikamaru throws smoke bombs at his current position, 5 meters to his left and 5 meters to his right and runs towards his right hiding in the smoke, keeping a tab on his opponent through the rain.

Ok. So you used Hurricane Fist to go towards the right closer to the water source? You avoid his water source and send a wind blade afterwards to take away the kunai he threw as well as continue. Honestly the kunai defense wasnt needed, however in order of succession of events should be
Stormy Blockade
You look up and then punch to right using Hurricane Fist
By the time you look up, He's Throwing Kunai and Flashbombs + Stone Spikes.
You motion with your arm and use Wind Blade to take out the kunai........but you do nothing about the spikes.
Honestly, you should have gotten stabbed by the spikes as you waved your arm if not immediately after. But as he changed his move and went along with it, there isnt much I can do about it.

Ok. Spotted the issue. When you allow Gushing Water Imprisonment to fully surround you, your feet are no longer touching the ground. You are fully immersed in water.

So without wasting a second, Shikamaru channels his doton chakra through his legs creating stone pillars that erupt from beneath the ground. The sharp spikes are created in such a way that they do not hurt Shikamaru but passes by the sides of his legs, bursting the water bubble and taking him out of danger.
(Doton: Ganchūsō) - Earth Release: Stone Spikes
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: This technique lets the user create a few rock pillars that will protrude from the ground to skew the target. The rock pillars will even pass through obstacles to reach their target
Once successfully out of the water bubble, Shikamaru feels the earth trembling.
(An Earth jutsu?? Shit this is bad...First having me covered in water, then using the Earth jutsu to restrict my usage of lightening technique....the opponent is good)
Being a genius that he is, Shikamaru quickly understands what his enemy wants from him and also deduces that its most probably an earth jutsu or it could even be a summoning.
Taking up a possibility of both the cases, he plans on his next move.
(I should put the pressure back on him)
Having thought of an excellent plan to defend against the unknown and also to put some pressure on Gin, Shikamaru releases a vortex of wind around him. He combines/coats the vortex with his lightening chakra. This strong vortex, as the pillars rise up, turn them into dust and also, due to the intense rotation of the vortex, the water is thrown away from Shikamaru's body.
Note: The initial wind effect takes away/blasts the water away. Also the vortex is 5 feet away/around him. So it doesn't really touch him.
As the pillars, keep on rising, the vortex keeps on destroying it. As this is happening, Shikamaru manipulates his chakra to form a dragon's head that looks towards Gin. In no time, the dragon head leaps towards Gin, opening its mouth to devour him. As the dragon touches Gin, it leaves him electrocuted and burnt on the frontal side.
Note: The spikes created by Shikamaru also gets destroyed in the process.
(Raiton: Rairyu no Tatsumaki) - Lightning Release: Thunder Dragon Tornado
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60 Description: The user forms a whirling vortex of wind and electricity around themselves. The vortex will take on the form of a dragon’s head and will cover the area in front of them. Even if the attack doesn't directly connect with his foe, the lightning can jump from the vortex to hit a nearby target.
Assuming what Gin's reply to that attack would be, Shikamaru takes out three kunai with explosive tags and throws them in an arc above that would fall at Gin at his head. The tags would go off on Shikamaru's mental command. Quickly, with a single handseal, Shikamaru releases an intense blast of wind and fire combo at Gin, that would complement his previous lightening attack. This huge blast of fire takes out everything and anything lying in its path towards Gin. Ofc, this would take out Gin in one go if it touches him.
(Katon: Fuuton Ken Katon Bakufuu no Jutsu) Fire Release: Wind and Fire Blast Technique
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Long
Chakra cost:40
Damage points: 80 Description: The user after combining Fire Release: Intense pain and Wind Release: Pressure Damage at the same time. This creates a blast that is so intense that a standard water technique (ex : Water Release: Water Encampment Wall) can only at most soften of the impact. It was successsfully stopped by Yamato and Naruto's Typhoon water vortex.
This huge blast takes out both Shikamaru and Gin's view of each other. Taking an advantage of that, Shikamaru throws smoke bombs at his current position, 5 meters to his left and 5 meters to his right and runs towards his right hiding in the smoke, keeping a tab on his opponent through the rain.

As Flash edited his move in his second turn to say that he didnt perform the Stone Spikes, it didnt happen.
As Flash could not perform Stone Spikes, he would be immersed in Gushing Water Imprisonment suffocating. His second move being Thunder Dragon Tornado would not help him escape the GWI nor would his chakra be able to escape the water to happen.
I judge that Flash would be trapped in the water and then stabbed by Destruction Pillars.
Winner: Better.
Flash, if you do not agree with my judgement, please feel free to contact an RP Mod to overrule me or two other sensei.
Wow, didn't expect you to give such a detailed decision lol. But thanks anyways I appreciate it.
Well, as for the first move yes I knew he'd be hit by the spikes, we discussed it in the vms as well, and he said its possible. But meh...since we continued, its ok.
I honestly didn't know about the lifting up thingy lol. But I performed the jutsu b4 the whole water became a bubble as in just as it was forming...
So i'm not sure with that.
Just to be clear, if you don't mind, I'd like someone else's judgement as well on the water prison.
In the first move flash, the water doesn't have any "damage" it will only apply pressure, and i don't think it would get him wet, considering how big the hurricane fist is, you say that you throw 3 kunais, targeting the head, chest, abdominal area among other vital parts, Lol you threw just three kunais, and the shadow one isn't mentioned among them either, mistakes like this can really mess up your grading if you are in a test, specially in a Minato one.
The following move you say that you make 4 spreads at the same time which is false, you can't use the same technique twice at the same time, one happens then the other follows, meaning you throw 2 spears at the wind canceling it and two others to better which he guarded against with the pressure damage.
Ok so the spikes issue, while it doesn't require any hand slamming on the ground, as it was shown by Yamato using it with merely chakra while he was fighting an earth user in the Sora filler arc, i don't agree that it's a valid defense against the Gushing Water Imprisonment, it's not a "bubble" that can be bursted and fade away like that, it's a Sphere of water which has pressurized water flow rushing through it, it will restrict your movement to some extent but you are able to move your limbs through it with a hard effort, you can't move your legs because as soon as the sphere starts to form from the rushing flow beneath you, you get lifted and remain suspended in the air by the water.
The Thunder Dragon Tornado however, is made of a lightning Dragon that has wind flowing around it, so i agree that it would be a valid defense against the water sphere, the wind would blow the water away causing it to lose formation and break down, it will most likely be forced to enter a spiraling manner around flash then fall to the ground. since there's a wind hurricane that's surrounding the lightning, however i think you will be shocked for a while, anyway dragon tornado will lose a B-rank making it a B-rank, which will work on canceling the Destructive Rising Rock pillars due to the elemental weakness, B-rank Lightning = A-rank Earth, the destructive rising rock pillars will pierce through the wind hurricane then get intercepted by the lightning present inside of it, i say you continue, while you didn't use the thunder dragon tornado to guard against the water sphere, but used it to guard against the destructive rising rock pillars, i would've said you lost if it didn't follow the timeframe, but it does.
Timeframe goes like this:
→ Water Sphere
→ Stone Spikes
→ Destructive Rising Rock Pillars
→ Thunder Dragon Tornado

Firstly thanks a lot Dante for giving your time to judge this ^_^
I guess I underestimated this tech. To be honest, I've never used that technique myself lol.
I actually threw 6 kunais. 3 in each hand ^_^
And yes, maybe I need to improve myself more if I need to go for that test lol.
Cuz i've seen many ppl (not any senseis though) using the spikes to burst water 'bubble' in the battle arena. N that's why I just followed :shrug:
Ok lol, I didn't know that....cuz I just went according to the description which says it has 'crushing' effect lol.

Well, actually I said (or atleast meant to say) 4 spears in a batch of 2. Dats why I used that technique twice lol
Oh, then I guess I've used it in the wrong way all this time >_>

1st Issue:
Dante is correct about what the water does. No real effect to break a neck but I would say a more beaten effect. Kind of like when you jump into a pool from a diving board head first. It hurts a bit but you don't get knocked out or killed by it. The technique is more of a throw off technique. Getting the target wet and throwing them off their game.
It's kind of confusing the way you word it. By reading it the first time I think you throw 4 kunai but if you read alittle more then you say "two flashbombs* which means you actually had one in each hand perhaps. It's just weirdly worded. You have to be more clear - Dante sensei is right when you need to be specific especially with kunai in a Minato test.
2nd Issue:
3rd Issue:
Stone spikes; Dante was right that it was used by Yamato and it used one handseal but based on the description for stone spikes that Zen made and how it's written I believe it was actually used by Fuka during a filler arc. Which also didn't require hand slamming nor handseals.
However, Dante is right this wouldn't effectively counter the water imprisonment. He explained that enough on why I believe.
4th Issue:
I agree with Dante on the Thunder Dragon Tornado. It uses both wind and lightning - I reviewed in when used in the anime and that's exactly what it does. The push of the wind to expel the pressure of the water but there is that lightning as well which would more than likely causes you to take some shocking damage since you would be wet. However the lightning would still be strong enough to destroy the pillars. Dante explained it very well.
I say continue with the timeframe Dante gave.
As the dragon destroys the water prison and then the pillars, Flash was shocked at first but should be able to move by the time the rock pillars are destroyed. However, the shock has effected you in some ways - you're roughed up a bit so you need to get yourself back in motion.

2nd Issue:
I can see where this maybe confusing but I figured it out. Two groups of spears; 1 spear alone then 3 in the next group. This obviously has to be done right after another and not all at the same time. Technically you'll create 1 seal, then lightning spear - then another handseal to form the other three weaker spears.
3rd Issue:
Stone spikes; Dante was right that it was used by Yamato and it used one handseal but based on the description for stone spikes that Zen made and how it's written I believe it was actually used by Fuka during a filler arc. Which also didn't require hand slamming nor handseals.

Understood sir U_U
Yeah, maybe that's why my opponents usually don't understand my move
Exactly what I meant lol.
Understood U_U
Ok. Thanks a lot for your input Sensei ^_^
