As the battlefield was populated by both fighters it seemed as if the air got thicker. The mist didn't allow either one to be fully visible. Parts of they bodies were hidden by the clouds of sorrow and despair. The young Uchiha before him, seemed to be in rage reasons might be close to be revealed or maybe hidden forever as well. The raw pressure of the situation might have been enough to bring down maybe the toughest ninja. A cold breeze of air slams in Nikodo's face, it maybe was the nature telling him to go back. But Ninja aren't like that. They oppose their fate other then running from it. As in the deep quite of the dim lit day a huge scream was heard. To the Young Uzumakis ears it wasn't fully a war cry, it was more a cry of help. Still the only way how he might save his student is opposing him. As the young uchiha took stance, Nikodo simultaneously got into battle stance as well. Bending his knees slightly lowering his head in the right height. He simply made 1 handseal, to counter the gigantic amounts of fire spit out by his former student.
As the fire was advancing at huge speeds the young Uzumaki, simply started channeling water release chakra in his right arm, Simply extending the arm forward caused the water to slowly crawl from the arm, creating a shield of water, who was capable of fully stopping the fires of hell.A hell the young person before him had experienced during his life. With a calm caring voice, Nikodo kept the hand extended offering his former student to return to the world of reasoning and negotiation.
This doesn't have to end this way...We can stop it right here and now without needing to carelessly spill blood!!!
