I apologize for the delay.
An old and tall man, with silky smooth snow white hair stood in front of Hashirama and Jio. Beside him, stood his younger brother, Tobirama. It was time to test their skills, and now was the perfect time. The wind pushed his bangs to the side, as a small smirk highlighted his face. He wore his usual traditional armor and had the Kumogakure headband strapped around his forehead tightly.
Gandalf, I presume? Seems, you're from my era. I can tell that from the look on your face. Only an experienced man can have this kind of expression.
Locking eyes with Gandalf, he looked once at Tobirama who stood usually with his arms folded across.
Let's put our skills to test, old one.
Speaking with a confident tone, he stretched his legs across, as his armor made a small sound. He simply slammed his hands on the ground, sending chakra through it. With this, the ground below Gandalf lowered immediately, upto 20 meters. The pit would be 5 meters wide. The sudden lowering of the Earth would cause him to stumble and fall.
The moment the Earth started lowering, he weaved two handseals at a blazing fast speed(second specialty) and turned the area below Gandalf into a non-flammable and sticky swamp which would restrict him from moving, and if left undefended, his chakra would be slowly sucked, which would result ultimately in death.
With this, he simply caused the walls of the pit as a source of Earth to make gigantic spikes rise out of them horizontally from all the sides, which would easily rip through his entity and tear through his entire body, should he pull himself out of the swamp.

Description: The user will first perform Boar → Tiger and then by changing the surface of an object beneath an enemy into mud and creating a non flammable swamp, the user can sink his enemy into the mud. The adhesive, chakra-infused mud ensnares the enemy's body, making it almost impossible to recover one's strength and escape from the swamp. The size and depth of the created swamp depends on the user's skill and the amount of chakra used, but if the user is an expert in this technique, it will always be possible to make a fair-sized swamp which is extremely effective against a great number of enemies or when having to face gigantic creatures.
