chuckled as Rand-K'ai spoke of his registered lethality. The man's tone had reminded him of days long past. When he lived only for revenge, longing to taste the blood of his foes. He had even sworn that the only enemy fit for his blade was the one who had taken it all from him. However, things were different now. He had been saved. Saved by those with hope; with dreams and the will to move on. They had shown him the way. Showed him what it truly meant to live for something once again. Now Zero found himself as a sentry. A protector of sorts. A sword in the darkness that took it upon himself to protect the weak. The shield that guarded the realm of men.
"I see. Then can you withstand the brunt of my sword?"
The sun beamed down upon the clearing the two found themselves in, as if to confirm that nothing could avoid it's magnificent gaze. The wild blew calmly, causing tall grass to sway gracefully. Zero was clothed in his usual attire; black pants and an indigo shirt with a large black rose adorned on it's back. He wore his hair in a ponytail that was tied with a pick string with a soundless bell attached at its end. His indigo and black scarf mimicked the motion in which the grass so elegantly moved. A flock of birds rushed from the forest that surrounded them, acting as a signal of sorts that marked the beginning of their battle.
He brought Izanagi's left hilt to his waist as he assumed the Aki-gamae stance, holding it parallel to the ground and focused his chakra in a steady stream throughout his entire body, increasing his speed and strength quarter fold. The increase in physical ability came from the chakra augmenting his muscles naturally, putting his body in a 'peak' condition. The same chakra also coated Izanagi's blades and allowed the counter offensive nature of the Autumn Stance to show itself. It seemed simultaneous...No. Almost instantly his blade was drawn and a diagonal crescent shaped red chakra wave was released towards the man Known as the Iron Fist, as he moved in a diagonal arc towards him

Description: The first of the “Prayer” series of the Command Arts, Hikaru Aki Hashira, often called “Aki-gamae (autumn stance)” by its users, is a Kenjutsu stance instead of an actual attack. It is a variation of the Waki-gamae in that the user holds their blade at waist level, parallel to the ground, whether in its scabbard or not, a position best suited for quick-draw strikes. The user focuses their chakra throughout their entire body in a steady stream while in this stance, increasing their speed and strength by 25%. This increase in ability comes about from the chakra augmenting the muscles naturally, instead of forcefully, essentially putting the body in a natural “peak” condition. This chakra also coats the user’s blade and allows the counter-offensive nature of Aki come through. Whether sheathed or not, the user can swing their blade and dispel an incoming attack by disrupting it, allowing the user to protect themselves and then counter-attack. The method of blocking attacks is based upon the concept of an immovable pillar.
*The First Prayer can only shield the user from attacks of an equal or lower rank.
*Blocking an attack counts against one of the three allotted moves in a turn.

(Yomazu) - War Cry
Type: Weapon
Rank: S
Range: Short
Chakra: 40
Damage: 80
Description: A katana with its sheath being attached to either side of the wielder's hip. It sported a reddish, traditional Japanese hilt-wrapping, and its large, simple circular tsuba, which had a golden color, was decorated by a flower-motif. Not only that, but it's properties are nearly indestructable. Yomazu became Loki's right hand, being able to perform numerous unique assaults, known as Bo, Kan, Zan, & Anko, all together are known as the 4 Kin of Purgatory. Mainly based on chakra control and raw chakra. No elemental chakra is known to work with Yomazu, with the exception of wind release.
Bo: This assault creates a strong defensive wall in the form of a cricle of chakra, which shields the user from enemy attack and is powerful enough to remain intact after being hit by B rank or lower ninjutsu techniques. The user puts his free palm against the side of the blade while the other hand holds the handle, and lifts it foward, releasing a burst of chakra that forms into the circle shield.
Kan: The user writes hols Yomazu with both hands and channels massive amounts of raw chakra into it. Then releasing it at once in a compressed state, creating a beam of energy which pierces the target set by the user, with ease. It can successfully rip through B rank and lower ninjutsu techniques, all within reason. It however, can only reach mid ranges.
Zan: The user infuses wich chakra into Yomazu and then swings Yomazu, creating a giant and wide air blade, to slice across everything within range. Having a reach of Mid range, and a strength of B rank wind.
Anko: The user creates a dark wave from Yomazu, which cuts through everything in its path. This works by the user rushing towards his enemy, whom he goes past (through either side) while unsheathing his blade, slashing them as they move. A few seconds before this is done, raw chakra is focused into Yomazu, thus, when it's unsheathed and slice the target it releases the chakra in a dark-ish color. This has a strength of B-Rank raw chakra and the movement of the user is dependent on his own basic speed.
Only 2 Kin of Purgatory assaults can be used per turn.
The same Kin of Purgatory can not be used in consecutive turns.
Each Kin of Purgatory counts towards one of the user's 3 techniques.

Once the Silver-haired man stepped a mere five meter distance apart, Rand knew it was about to get messy and he firmly gripped his weapon with his right arm. It's at that moment when he faced the threat which had been flung from the furiously fast sword unsheathing. Rank pulled rapidly of his own weapon and placed it before him at chest level; forming a strong defensive wall in the shape of a circle made up of raw chakra. The motion was fluid and accurate however far from fast as his opponent's, it however managed to save Rand's life with ease.
"It seems we're past words. Very well, prepare to face defeat.." He said, whilst the man in face mask took the follow-up motion and dashed forth closer. With his blade already held high, he merely swung the sword horizontally from left to right - through the man's chest. However shallow the slash may have been, it's motion was followed by a spin in the same direction of the swing.
It was a simple pivot motion with allowed Rand K'ai to balance himself over his right foot as he turned rightward, and lifted the lef knee in order to drive his left foot into your gut. His left arm steady in mid air to further balance his position while holding the sword behind him.

Description: The Raijin's Gauntlet is a special gauntlet that was designed by Minato Namikaze himself in order to increase and polish his strategy in Ninjutsu and Hiraishin Jutsu. The Gauntlet is a regular steel Gauntlet which consist of a foldable hidden cross bow on it such that when it is worn on the hands, the Crossbow is hidden under the wrist of the user. This Crossbow is fed mini bolts on each Gauntlet that are made out of materials that are used to manufacture kunais.
Abilities:
The general ability of this crossbow is that the crossbow can send normal or Seal marked (FTG) bolts like a freeform Kunai throw. The Crossbow can send tiny bolt infused with raw chakra like a regular kunai or infuse them with one of the basic five elemental chakras to improve the effect it has on the target like Infusing it with wind to increase sharpness, Lightning to increase piercing power, Fire to burns, earth to harden, etc. Releasing normal or "Infused" bolt(s) comes under freeform attack, like a freeform "infused" Kunai throw.
First Ability:
The first one is that when the infused bolts are released towards the target, the user can perform a single special hand seal ( Like Deidara's "Katsu" ) in order to make the Bolts blast to create a short ranged explosion of the desired element. The explosion will be A ranked in strength and this ability can only be used three times per battle. This counts towards the user's jutsu per turn limit.
Second Ability:
The second ability is the user is able to attach ninja wire/strings to the tail of the bolts while they are released . While these strings are normally A ranked ninjutsu in strength, they are very sharp so that they can slice through or severe a human flesh with ease. The user can use these wire attached bolts(s) to bind the opponent, constricting the movement of any part of the body and pin them to any surface or the ground with the bolt acting as the anchor point fixing itself to the ground/surface. The user can anchor the bolt to any surface/sentinel object as a means to pull himself up ( For example, The user can anchor the bolt to a tree/ground near a swamp to get out of it) . The Wire is A ranked in strength however when these wires are attached to elemental infused bolts they are of A ranked in strength of that particular element and follows elemental strength and weakness. The elemental wires when severing the opponent or impaling through them produces the effects of their particular element. This second ability can be used only 4 times per battle and consumes one jutsu slot. Only one the ability can be used at a time and never both combined. Meaning if the users sends an elemental bolts with wire attached, the user can only use the second ability and cannot make the bolt blast up to create the effect of the first ability.
The Gauntlets are very strong and virtually indestructible but this doesn't mean they can defend against anything and everything. The weapon is chakra sensitive hence when someone else wears it, the gauntlet releases S ranked spikes from within it impaling and severing the hands of the person who used it.
Restrictions:
*FTG sealed bolts can only be used my Minato/Tobirama bios*
*Can only be Taught by -Best-*
Zero was a bit surprised at how easily Rand blocked the crimson wave and followed up with a two pronged attack. Finally, someone who he could test it on. As the man's blade came from his left, Zero performed a downward diagonal slash that deflected the incoming blade downwards and towards the knee kick that followed. This caused Rand to injure himself if he chose to continue his spinning motion, and he didn't stop there. He swung his deflected sword in a horizontal fashion from left to right and he jumped slightly backwards, releasing a large arc of intense flame that roared towards him opponent.

As his swing is blocked prematurely, Rand holds back any other motions as his focus is locked on avoiding any follow-up cuts, making to sure to pull back any limbs or blocking any exposed openings. Before being allowed to get closer, Zero moved back yet further as an instense arc of flames was projected before him. Unfazed and amazed at the same time, Rand kicked high up into the air with his right leg. Releasing flames from his foot as it raided in a vertical motion skyward. The large blade of flames was enough to collide with the arc of flames and cancel each other out. A small ring of flames manifested itself in the same timeframe around Rand, protecting him from any close ranged assaults as he performed the Nirvana Kick.

At which point flames are release through the foot as a large blade of fire (several meters high) that grows up to 6 feet infront of the user. The blade is thin however concentrated with flaming power, capable of cutting through a target while burning through the wound as it slashes. After initiating the attack, the user appears to be surrounded by a small ring of fire that forms around them while the main blade of fire attacks/defends (ring has no rank, simply keeps foes from approaching carelessly). It is strong enough to counter elemental techniques following Fire's strength and weakness.

Already moving onto the next act, he holds the hilt of the sword with both hands and turns it over so it's edge faces the ground. The sword glows an intense white before concentrating in the center of the steel and then fired at Zero in the shape of a five inch thick beam of raw energy. Attempting to pierce through his left shoulder, it wouldn't kill him as it was aimed only to severe the use of Zero's left arm. He breaks the formation and holds Yomazu with this left hand as he darts forward. Four meters apart from Zero he pushes off the ground and into the air and down at Zero.
Once airbone a swing of his blade across space produces an air blade, aiming to cut off directly through Zero's chest. Following the air blade's attack, Rand lands in a kneeling position a meter before Zero with Yomazu already perforating through Zero's stomach.

The Black Rose Swordsman smirked as Rand easily blocks his flames with an attack of his own, and proceeds to fire a beam of raw energy towards him. As if that would work. As it neared he took the Aki-gamae stance and simply swung his blade in a horizontal motion, dispelling the chakra beam before it count penetrate his shoulder. While he was doing this he never took his eyes from Rand, and wondered as to what his next attack would be. The man released a blade of wind with the swing of his sword after jumping into the air, and Zero once again swung his own blade.
Whether sheathed or not, the user can swing their blade and dispel an incoming attack by disrupting it, allowing the user to protect themselves and then counter-attack.
Instead of releasing an ach of intense flame, this time he surrounded his immediate vicinity with a circular wall of intense flame. The flames easily blocked the wind blade, and would even incinerate Rand as the forward momentum from his jump carried him onward. Two birds with one stone, and leaving Zero with an extra crispy lethal weapon.

Iron Fist simply launched his sword into the ground, just outside the edge of the flaming dome as he came down about to land directly on them. Upon the sword entering the ground a large amount of water bursts out of the ground and up around him.

The area was immediately shrouded in steam as the remaining water splattered around. Showing Iron Fist balancing on a single leg ontop of his blade (much like sasuke did vs Deidara).
With his original blade stuck down, he simply waved his right hand at Zero once the water pillar came down as if slashing at him with an invisble sword. Of course, mid way through his swing an actual sword blue like the skies above them was hosted in his arm. Upon completing his slash Zero's chest was carved with a horizontal line of blood. Which splattered through the now evaporating steam.
The cut however shallow, would at the very least stun Zero as Iron Fist continued by leaping off his sword as he cut Zero. Dashing in closer to the samurai, he tucked his left elbow with great might into the man's chin. Throwing him back in pain.
