Coming from here
Recover a Depleted Crystalline Apotheotic Shard from the Moon Isle (188), site of a gigantic violet crystal emerging from the earth (C-Rank Mission).
Arriving on the island on his ink bird in style, Ryuu stayed atop the creation in order to get a birds eye view of the island. Of course, his Byakugan allowed him to see the whole island and even further, but it was always pleasant and relaxing to be able to gaze down from above. Plus, it gave him a different perspective too. Surveying the land beneath him, the young Hyūga noticed the hustle and bustle at the port and leading into the city. He was quite comfortable up here, without any worry of being jostled around in a stinky crowd. He was also pleasantly surprised to find that this part of the world had not been affected by the cataclysm as the rest of the lands had, instead looking as beautiful as the rest of the world had once looked, and he wondered why. Was it linked to these crystals he had heard about? There were so many strange occurrences these days that baffled his young mind, what with the rifts, a strange voice in his mind asking for help, and now these crystals.
Speaking of which, he moved his gaze around to look for them, and quite quickly, he managed to spot the unusual growths from the ground. Purple in colour, they ranged in size from small to large, and he noticed one cluster that was very big and had a few people around it, seemingly inspecting this strange phenomenon. Making his way over slowly in the air, Ryuu avoided all the crowds to come to the largest crystal, circling it for a few moments and inspecting it before touching the ground. The bird flew back up into the air, staying close by and patiently waited for Ryuu to do what he needed to do.
There were a few people here and there, some inspecting the crystal, and some seeming to take notes of some kind. Of course this would be drawing attention from all over the world, tourists and scientists alike. Ryuu wondered if he stood out too much here, what with his ninja attire and doujutsu. He focused on the crystal now though, noticing that it didn't have any chakra in it. That meant it wasn't a technique that someone had used. What was it though? How could pure crystal just grow out of the ground with no explanation? And that fast too. A little hesitantly, the curious boy went right up to the crystal, reaching a finger out. Making up his mind, he very quickly moved his finger forward and then straight back, giving the shiny crystal a poke. When he realised that nothing happened to him, he gave it a few more pokes, each one getting slightly longer in duration as well as exposing more than just one finger, so that by the time he was sure it was safe, he kept a whole hand on it. To an onlooker, it may have looked a little absurd, a bit like when someone touches something hot to make sure it doesn't burn them, except the crystal wasn't hot at all.
Running his hand along the surface now, Ryuu felt the smooth, cool crystal beneath it, which felt very satisfying. He could see parts that looked jagged at the tips, and some parts like they had been broken off by others, and then remembered he was here to do the same. Knocking on the crystal, he felt that it was very hard and sounded dense, so it may be difficult to break a piece off. Grabbing a kunai from his pouch, the young ninja struck the spot in front of him a few times, but no suitable sized shards came off. At most, only tiny particles that resembled shavings shed off from it. This was tougher to break, but he had expected as much. He was going to need something stronger.
Relying on his natural aptitude for close combat, Ryuu took a couple of steps back, before charging his right leg with earth chakra. Upon doing so, he then delivered a powerful kick to the section of the crystal in front of him. A large crack appeared in it then, but nothing broke off straight away, so Ryuu thought it wasn't going to break off. However, he waited, as the crack started to make some sounds, before a large chunk about the size of a rasengan fell off and landed on his feet. Ouch, it was heavy! He definitely wasn't going to carry something of that size around, so he would need to reduce its size significantly.
Thinking about how he could carefully break it into smaller pieces, Ryuu picked it up and turned it around in his hands, looking for any faults in it. Finally, he found something; a small crack which traveled into the deeper parts of the crystal ball, running in a zigzag line. Grabbing a stick from the floor laying near him, the boy fit one end of it into the fissure, before grabbing his kunai again. Turning it upside down, he started banging the hilt of the kunai onto the stick, causing it to go deeper into the crack. At first, the top of the stick would keep breaking, and he had to pause continuously, but finally, the now shortened stick did its job. With a crack sound, the stick fell to the ground as the ball shattered into smaller pieces, some larger than the others. There were a few suitable sized shards that he found amongst them, and he decided to pocket three of them, all about the size of a small finger. He felt it was better to have more as backups just in case something happened to one of them. The rest of the pieces lay scattered on the ground in a messy fashion, so Ryuu tidied up behind him by gathering them and placing them all at the foot of the giant crystal that he had taken them from.
Satisfied, he thought he should go somewhere else now to investigate his findings thoroughly and see if he could get the shard to do anything. Motioning for his bird to come back down, he climbed atop it and took to the skies again.
