I'm game. I'll use Kimimaro in my signature if you'll indulge me.

Ooh Kaguyas are tough. This will either be fun or frustrating.


"If you're looking for a doctor, you've got the wrong guy, but if you want more bones removed I might be of assistance."

Godot begins walking toward you as he slowly draws his sword with his right hand. He points the blade to his right and picks up the pace, dashing forward and slashing you from your left shoulder to right hip. The cut is shallow since he is attacking from just within his range. Near the end of this motion he lunges to your left and turns the blade towards you with both hands holding it, slashing from left to right to cut you laterally across your left side. He then slides his left foot into your feet to knock you off balance as he points his sword at you from his low position and thrusts it through your heart.

No, I'm fine. It's you who'll need a doctor after this.

I stand with my body loose and fluid. Beneath the insouciant facade of a mediocre man carelessly twirling his weapon, I analyze your body language and the characteristics of your brandished sword looking for an opening to exploit. As you dash towards me with your sword pointed out to your right, I switch to a left handed grip and my demeanor changes to a more stoic one. Just as you initiate your slash, I notice from the length of your sword and the inherent distance between us that your sword would barely reach me if effectively applied. At this moment, using my expertise in wielding bone weapons, I immediately swing my sword in an arc conversely to yours; an upward diagonal slash from right to left, blocking your sword just above shoulder height and preventing you from cutting me.

Simultaneous with my sword swing, I lead off of my left foot and step in closer to your body. As our swords meet, mine pushes yours upward and to the left (your right). From here I transition directly from a block into a counterattack; with your blade on the outside, I now have a tactical advantage. I unfold my sword and perform a downward vertical slash, cutting deeply into and damaging the tendons in your right shoulder, thus disabling your sword arm.

Not enough with that, I follow by immediately curling my right arm and lifting it upward, swiftly striking you in the chin with my elbow. Immediately after my elbow uppercut, I sweep my right arm down and out to the right, making sure to knock away your free left hand. I follow through with this motion, turning entire my body around by stepping in with my right foot and pivoting counterclockwise on my left foot. While doing this, I sweep my right arm under yours, firmly grip it with my right hand, drop my waist, and using all my strength, throw your body over my right shoulder, exacerbating your wound in the process. The moment you land on the ground, laying flat on your back, I stab my sword through the right side of your chest, right in the gap between the rib cage and collar bone. The sword passes through you and into the ground, pinning you down.


---------​

Despite the somewhat lengthy description everything above is done in a few, swift, consecutive, and fluid movements. Though I didn't explicitly mention it before, my bone sword is harder than steel.

When your own sword clashes with Godot's he notices you getting closer and knows he must reorient quickly. Acting with haste, he pulls his handle toward his chest which brings his blade in between his right shoulder and the incoming blade. Godot's grip on his sword is firm as your sword slides across the flat of his blade without leaving a scratch on Godot's suit. He recalls that you switched hands before dealing with his attack. Blocking on one side leaves no obstructions to prevent an attack on the opposite side so Godot shifted his gaze the side opposite your sword and, spotting your arm movements, uses his right hand to grab your right forearm and stop your second attack in its tracks.

Not content with just stopping the attack, Godot sharply yanks your arm down and past his left side while holding his left foot out. Naturally, your body would be pulled along with your arm and get thrown off balance when your feet are obstructed by Godot's leg. Godot straitens his sword arm again as you begin to fall and attempts a diagonal slash from right to left aimed at your left shoulder. The slash has much more emphasis on speed than power as the success of the attack is not important to Godot. He merely needs to keep you too busy to worry about your balance.

Letting go of you as you hit the ground, Godot jumps up 3 meters and throws 3 kunai at your forehead, chest, and groin. Godot comes down behind them and stabs you through your stomach. His sword is held in reverse by his left hand while his right palm braces it at the base of the handle. His body weight is centered on the sword so the force behind the attack should be enough to penetrate your body and nail you to the ground below as well.
