Alright that's Sun Princess in my sig.
What a fine day , peaceful and loving. The morning hours was always welcoming in the eyes of Azuli, steadily stepping into the training grounds with a duffle bag filled with all sorts different swords. They ranged from katana , to wakizashi - many of different styles to pick from but Azuli personally had her own katana strapped on her left waist in a white scabbard decorated in red flower petals , red and golden string neatly tightened on the tsuba of the blade. A small bell attached to the end jingled each step she made as she settled the bag onto the ground awaiting for the sun to rise up.
"(I wonder where Nara-chan is...hope she is cute!)"
Azuli thought to herself as she took a breath and began to lightly jog around the training grounds in order to warm up her blood and body as she prepared to train for the first time in a few months. Step by step she inhaled and exhaled allowing her to keep a steady heart beat.
"1,2,3,4...1,2,3,4..."
She counted softly.

She was already at the Training Grounds. She only ever always arrived ahead of, or right on time, never late. She waited patiently for her mentor, jet black locks of hair swaying gently in the breeze as birds flew by, chattering amongst themselves. Being a Jonin, one of high-level at that, she didn't particularly need this form of training. She was very proficient in the art of Sword Combat. But she decided that it was best that she recapitulate the things that she was straying away from. The basics. She had a sword of her own strapped against her back with a leather black string. The sword itself beared a handle crafted from ivory wood, reinforced with a layer of gold in stripe patterns, and laced with white silk. The hilt and guard were gold and the blade was Obsidian. It was a beautiful weapon designed and crafted by an artistic innovator, Kawakari herself. She called it Ryu.
Realizing that the odd lady jogging about the Training Ground was her mentor, she closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose, allowing a slight sigh to escape her soft, glossy pink lips. She stood, hands in her pockets, and walked over to the lady.
"What in earth are you doing? When one is expecting a student at a certain place, they ask around for them, maybe hold up a cardboard piece with their name on it. What makes you think that its okay to just forget about me and start running circles around the place?!"

Oh an attitude? This is gonna be fun, Azuli thought to herself as she heard someone yelling out at her. She turned to meet the gaze of this individual, she looked roughly the same age as her. Azuli noticed she said "student" which confused her as she thought the trainee would be a bit younger. A soft smile appeared on her face as she approached her, her eyes started to turn a dangerous crimson color as she looked eyes with her student. Her three tomoe sharingan came to life as she established a perfect hypnosis on her. Azuli approximately one foot in front of her student leaned in towards her speaking to her in a lustfully adoring voice.
" That's because I never expected you to be my student. They didn't provide a picture of you for some reason in your profile so I assumed you'd be much younger...but this is x2 better. I just want you to know one thing little miss, that prissy attitude won't fly with me so let me make that clear. These eyes has seen many things from bloodshed, death... even the under area of other women, and trust me you will be no expectation - I'll break you in ways you never imagined... "
Azuli said into her ear as she seductively spoke to her. Bad girls is one of her types afterall. She would deactivate her Sharingan and move away towards the training log sitting on it in a lotsu position. Her mood shifted into a more calmer one.
"Now then, I brought a bag of swords with me just in case you didn't have one but that's ok. First off tell me what you know about Kenjutsu, who in this world is famous for it and also what effects does the basic 5 elements each do with Kenjutsu?"
Azuli said as the first questions came out.
OOC: Just use famous sword users from the anime/manga if you need.

She stood unflinchingly as she was casted into the Genjutsu, her arms crossing against her chest as, perhaps, the air around her shifted in temperature. This was the feeling of menacing, cold eyes of an Uchiha being fixed upon her form. Still, she stood her ground and did not falter, as if mockingly tempting the woman before her.
"Cry me a river, little miss sunshine. If you find yourself incapable of educating a student because of their attitude, then I can and will easily find a more capable mentor."
she turned around, on that note, showing no hesitation to dismiss the woman, but then Azuli continued to speak, and she turned back ever so slightly to listen.
"Break me, you say? Is this some sort of game to you? You have a childish complex that looks nothing more than pathetic for someone your age. Grow up."
Kawakari should be the one baring the crimson red eyes of an Uchiha, for she was amongst the most bitter and cruel Shinobi in existence. Not by actions, although she has done some awful things, but rather she had brutally honest personality. When people saw rainbows, she saw light reflecting off of liquid particles. When people saw shapes in the clouds, all she saw were obscure masses of condensed evaporated water. Despite her brute discouragement, it seemed that the mentor wanted to continue with the lesson. She sighed and turned entirely, recalling that she was still in the Genjutsu anyway. She arched her left brow as she was given rather vague inquiries, running her lengthy digits through her locks as she listened.
"The seven swordsmen are the most renowned group of swordsmen, originating from Kirigakure. They each have a unique designed sword with special traits and abilities that reign supreme over all others. They are currently all deceased though, the location of their swords are unprecedented as of current. As for the affects that each basic element have with Kenjutsu, that varies depending on both the technique and sword being used."

"Oh my, the little lady has a stick in her booty. You might be hard, but let me tell you - your attitude towards life is quite amusing. I'll let it side today since I'm in a good mood , but be warned. I can kill you right now without even having to look at you...and that's something I can guarantee"
Azuli said allowing her killing intent to spread across the area, the darkness of which causes her student to be drenched in pure utter fear of Azuli as she saw vivid images of her death at Azuli's lawless smile. Her body paralyzed in fear but Azuli released the intent and allowed her student to speak once more.
The mention of the seven swordsman was fine but her evaluation on the elements was quite off. Azuli took a hold of her sword with her right hand , holding the blade on a flat plain she kneads her fire chakra into the blade setting it ablaze.
" Your last statement was not on point. As you can see, through the process of chakra flow you can use the basic five elements to give your sword a powerful boost. This is an important part of kenjutsu - learning how to embed chakra into your weapon, but seeing as you don't have much elemental experience I'll demonstrate for you."
She said as now the fire was out, now replaced with a loud chirping sound as the sword became clad in lightning. She now asked her once more.
"Now I'll ask again, but a little different. How would each element affect my sword or in this case - your sword. I'll give you fire myself in which it can ignite the blade by setting it on fire so when you swing it around you can impale and burn people with it. Now tell me for the four elements, now that its a bit cleared up."

She blank for a moment, her expression that of a curious surprise as the woman before her made the first few statements. The birds in the tree then flew away as the trees shook abruptly, Kawakari having burst into a violent fit of laughter. She bent over her stomach, slapped her knees, stomped her left foot as she snickered about. She might have almost collapsed on the ground from how hysterical she had become, not even dignifying the woman and her alleged "Killer's Intent" with a proper response. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she began to cough slightly in her explosion of laughs and chuckles.
"Stop it!"
she shouted through her laughter.
"You're killing me."
she managed through her fit of laughter, putting a sarcastic roll on 'killing'. You couldn't manipulate someone's fears if they didn't have any to begin with. There was a cold chill sent up Kawakari's spine at best; but because she most truly believed that the woman before her couldn't even touch her, let alone kill her, she didn't even flinch at the killer's intent reverberating through the area.
"I'm sorry..."
she mumbled, sniffling, fixing herself up.
"I don't usually act this way...it's just...your words and your efforts...are so pathetic and meaningless that it's comical. You should consider being a comedian, or maybe a clown. You certainly have the wardrobe for the job..."
She looked the woman up and down, huffing with relief as she was finally able to catch a good breath again. Idiots might be the death of her after all, ironically.
"I didn't think that it was necessary to state obvious things. Infusing the five basic elements into kenjutsu can influence the strength of the blade just as raw chakra can. But the results still vary depending on the strength and intent of the technique used. If you infuse Katon chakra into your blade, then it will obviously heat the metal and the sword might be able to expel chakra and burn opponents, or even set fire to things by touch. If you infuse Raiton chakra into your blade, the blade might conduct the electricity if it's material isn't based off of an insulator. I mean, you could manifest Raiton chakra around a wooden sword, but a metal or alloy sword is better because it actually conducts and sustains the electricity, and you could expel lightning from the blade if you're skilled enough. Infusing Fuuton chakra into your blade would increase the sharpness of the blade. Infusing Suiton into your blade might have more effects on the area around you than the actual swords. You could use it to guide and direct mist. Infusing Doton chakra into your blade would increase it's durability and strength."

Azuli in her mind counted to three several times as she quietly listened to Nara-chan speak. Her tone was bluntly sarcastic but Azuli has quite the tolerance for immaturity, rude and impatient people but she heard what she wanted to hear. She deactivated her lightning chakra from the sword and turned her attention to her student.
" Good enough though you missed a few things , like you can use Earth Release to decrease the weight of the sword so you can slash at the enemy faster while retaining the sharp nature of the blade or increase the weight to deal more blunt damage. None the less that's what we will be practicing first - so please take your sword out and begin kneading your chakra into the blade in order to create U shaped layer of chakra on your sword. This will allow you to make a sort of "chakra scabbard" around it as we will use this for the reminder of the lesson so don't harm each other. This is called Training Edge."
She does the technique demonstrating it while she spoke. Now waiting for her to try it on her own.
(Shuuren Kiwa) Training Edge
Rank: E
Range: Short
Type: Supplementary
Chakra Cost: 5
Damage: 0
Description: This is a technique generally taught to aspiring swordsman and could be considered the opposite of using wind chakra to lengthen and sharpen a blade. Usually, a Swordmaster or other instructor would use their own chakra to create a small “U” shape around the edges or point of a weapon. The chakra acts as an invisible scabbard on the blade, allowing the students to spar without killing each other or wounding each other past minor bruises and aches caused by the blunt force of the “scabbard” blade making contact. The user activates this technique by extending their hand along a ridge and just letting a small amount of chakra out. This technique is very simple and quick.

OOC: In one of my posts, the one describing the sword, I noticed that I said it had an obsidian blade. That was an accident. I was talking about an obsidian blade somewhere else so my type history accidentally replaced the intended "gold blade" with obsidian.
She whipped her sword from its scaffold, unwrapping it to reveal its sharp black edges and beautiful shine. It's a very annoying form of auto-correct, but I fixed the error. At any rate, I don't know if this needs to approved, but the gold isn't any normal gold. It's black gold, a gold that has had certain molecules structurally modified to enhance it's durability.
She whipped her sword from its scaffold, unwrapping from the black clothed laced around it's blade, revealing sharp edges so black that sunlight did not reflect off of it. It was a sword whose blade was created from black gold. It barred a black gold hilt and hand-guard, and a handle made of waxed gray ivory wood that was layered with (in stripe formation) black gold and laced with a decorative black string. Kawakari had forged the blade herself, although the black gold was rare and very expensive. The black sword was Vantablack, and consumed light, serving as a beautiful signification of her clan.
"I told you the effects depend on the technique being used on the blade. The one you listed involves Doton: Keijūgan no Jutsu and Doton: Kajūgan no Jutsu. Different Doton techniques may have different effects on a sword. Same for the other basic elements."
She spoke painly as she held her sword up and summoned forth her chakra, willing it to manifest itself around the sword. This gave the sword an incredible boost in strength and durability.

OCC: Its fine so as long as it's not having no abilities - it would be purely cosmetic. Also training edge doesn't increase durability and such lol. It just adds a sort of sheet of raw chakra around the blade so you can't cut people.
Being satisfied with her student Azuli took Sakura no Ki by the handle using her right hand while jumping off the log. She landed next to her student and smirked at her as she rushed towards the log once more but turning her sword's sharper edge towards the log she slashed at it with a diagonal swing coming from her left side to her right. She lunges forward slightly pushing the blade out to stab the log but pulling away quickly she put her right forward - turn on it in a counterclockwise path doing a horizontal cut towards it. She stops her attack and turns to her student.
Your turn, just do a simple combo on the log for this one
She instructed while moving away to give her space.

She nodded slowly, her eyes fixed on the log before her.
"A simple combo...?"
she muttered, holding her blade tightly in her left grip, building up chakra in her stomach and willing it up through her chest and out of her left arm.
"Should be easy enough."
she dashed forward with blinding speed, causing leaves to sway and dance towards her direction. Applying pressure to her left toes as they met the ground, she sprung into open air by using chakra to augment her step, and had this log been a real person, it would blind them to look up and see the sunlight behind Kawakari. This was a technique whose conditions required the sun to be visible. She spun completely frontward in air. This would normally leave her vulnerable to attacks, but it was a quick maneuver, and the enemy might be blinded by sunlight, as well as the fact that it boosted her momentum and therefore the weight and strength of the attack. As she swung the sword down with two arms, the heavy black blade slammed down like an ax being swung by a lumberjack, cutting smoothly through the log. But she wasn't done. Efficiently utilizing chakra control, she expelled chakra from the blade with pinpoint precision just as it had connected with the log, a deep line splitting the earth beneath her as the sharply crafted chakra dug into the ground.

"Great! Now lets try that once more but let's change it up a bit. Let's get physical with our body. Now I know you don't have as much skill in Strong Fist Taijutsu right now but simple punches and kicks naturally can work fine.
So rush at the log once more but instead of using the blade right away - let it have a few punches like your smashing its face in , then finish up with two lethal slashes with your sword."

She nodded as she understood what she was being told to do, and (holding her sword's handle in her left grip) she dashed forward with the same blinding speed, heading in a linear path towards the log. Once within range, she dragged the tip of her sword's blade in the ground below, swinging it upwards heavily towards the log. But this was simply a feint, as she released the sword into the air above. She pulled her arm back before propelling it forward with bullet speed, knocking the log backwards and sending it flying towards the mass of trees behind it. In the midst of it's flight, Kawakari caught her sword by its handle with ease, dashing towards the log with such speed that she seemingly appeared before it, holding her sword's handle tightly with both hands, and struck its from several times. Her movements were fluid and elegant, like a refined dance. As if she were an artist, striking her canvas with a massive paint brush. The blade of the sword would carve through the wood like butter with each swing she took. She didn't simply scar the log, each heavy swing diced it smoothly through. Her sword's blade had a very sharp edge. This technique wasn't exactly a simple few punches before two blade swings, because she made it her own.

Good. Here use this for a moment, this is a tanto. The next technique needs it so using the tanto in a reverse grip though that's just personal preference, rush at the log and spin rapidly.
This motion allows you to slice the target multiple times at high speeds, but after that pretend you deliver an uppercut to it. Once in the air jump high above them, drop down onto the log drilling it into the ground using a descending stab.

She nodded and dashed towards the log was her blazing speed, her sword's handle held in a reverse grip as sprinted towards her target. She pivoted on her heel, slashing her enemy multiple times with the blade of her sword, before upper cutting it into air and then leaping above it with chakra in her foot to augment her step. She gripped her sword's handle with two hands and slammed it down on the log, sending it launching back towards the ground in two pieces.Good. Here use this for a moment, this is a tanto.

Weww long time no reply here @__@ Alright so I’ll just use my Akame bio to continue onwards.
Sitting down onto the ground, Akame would simply pull out from her tool pouch a set of two boxes of milk. She would throw one to her student, while also taking out a bag of chips as she began to eat it. Break time! She stuffed her face, looking away from Kawakari as she eat with no shame. A few minutes passed by as she got ready to continue the training exercises.
Good, now we continue. Take your katana, and channel chakra into it. Once you do this, jump into the air and spin as fast as you can and come downwards onto the target like a buzzsaw blade.
She said simply.
