Kanna remains idle, peering at the female as she.. removes her sandals? The Chuunin cocks a single brow upright a moment following that, but remains hushed. She doesn't act, either, making it clear that she intends to play on the defensive. Kanna does just that when she buckles her knees beneath her, waiting and gauging what kind of move the Kotoshura is going to make. Something more tactile this time around? Or maybe just a brute force method again. In either case, the ravenous-haired woman would be ready. As the blonde-haired female propels herself off the ground, she's thrown off for the moment that she does it. 'An explosion?" She inquires within her thoughts, while dedicating her focus to Yui's next move.
None the less, the black-haired Chuunin does indeed prove that she can avoid this kind of thing. She anticipates her next move actively, pondering if she'd twist her body and perform another kick from a different trajectory. Instead, the Genin does something that's different yet again, employing the use of her explosive capabilities to blitz off from the initial arc of motion her physique's taking. It's with this that she does the very thing Kanna considered her doing, but yet again, in a different mannerism.
Had it not been for the taijutsu practicing-Genin's lack in physical aptitude, she would've had no window to react to this. That's not to say what she's doing isn't short of impressive, though. It's still far more calculating and strategic than what Kanna expected from her in specific. Kanna still proves her own aptitude as she swivels her own frame, promptly elevating her arm and arching it before her chest. With her limb erect before her person, the Chuunin blocks with the forearm of it, taking the brunt of the blow directly and capitalizing on their close range.
Not done with the initial pivot that put her own body in alignment with the Kotoshura's, the black-haired female shifts even further, feet rotating counter-clockwise as she re-assesses the positioning of her forearm. She snaps it forward yet again, this time with an open hand. With Yui's ankle already right in her range, the female's opted to attempt to grab at her ankle. Knowing very well that the Kotoshura can probably dismiss that blast from her soles once more, Kanna intends to stray from maintaining direct contact for too long. So she pulls a feint, breaking the momentum of the presumed-grapple attempt midway to thrust her other arm up promptly, intent on jabbing the blonde in her arm before disengaging with another hop, beckoning her to follow.
