Blitz V Sero

Being back home now for a couple days after his mission remaining isolated in his home and enjoying the silence and peace that was given he was only ready to train and grow stronger but yet his lust for battle was something that needed to be satisfied. Doubting he would receive any spar from the other shinobi on this day there was only one shinobi who he enjoyed the company of battle with no matter the occasion. Walking out of his home that day into the busy streets of the village, the lovely sight of seeing the people of the village go out and enjoy their time spent in peace. From what he learned something was coming in change to the way things were being run around the village especially with the new land he was introduced to this now caught his attention as he wondered what could be waiting for them all. Carrying once more the relic sword from his father he insisted he continued his training with the blade as a way of allowing him to remember who truly taught him the path of the warrior. Sporting his usual white and blue kimono and shinobi footgear he made his way from the districts out to one special corner of the village. With the large mansion coming into view after a quick walk through the village he knew it was only a matter of time until he had nothing else to lose with the boredom around him he knew that it was better to be busy on his hands instead of laying on his back. Making his way to the entrance of the building as he realized the doors themselves were in the usual manner shut closed only those with the strength to push it open found themselves enveloped in darkness but also in the home of such a monster. The silence was loud as always in such a giant place but Blitz always knew he had to wait for a response before going out to look for such a person. What he did know was that he came in for training.

He was told to advance his element training and become stronger but it made sense for him to be nervous at first wondering if he would receive the same pressure he wanted to dish out. Making his way to the main room where he found multiple chairs once more without anyone giving any warmth to such a massive building but only one really lived in the domain. Sitting down in the main room silently in one of the chairs that the owner had so kindly placed around in such a mighty building he could only recall battles he had with the shinobi. From trying his best to failing it was normal for someone to fail and not win but the lust for his battle could only make him sharper without any will of giving up he doubted he would even let himself get dulled out. Shinobi such as the one he came to see on this day could only keep him sharper and useful as a perfect weapon for the village if the time had come to it. Looking around the inside of the manor taking in the environment second by second carefully recalling the battle he had against the flame swordsman destroying inside of the mansion but also using it to spar the way he wanted to, that being a fun battle between comrades. Allowing the situation to be realistic and keep him on his toes forcing him to make such choices he could only see the results of his training from that day playing in a loop in his mind reminding him it is never easy being a shinobi. Especially one who has spent time chasing down his comrades from the shadows in hopes he could one day catch up to them and their brains when it comes to the battlefield.

“Sensei. Come out, let's train..”

The doors would creak open. Worn and rusted were the hinges. Shifting like a shriek from a dying human. The doors not locked but weathered as if ignored. Some may consider the palace a lost ruin. Though it had been inhabited over the last couple of years by one being. In two years of negligence and proximity to him....the land lay cursed. The acre of land burned away and covered in ash. No living grass or tree left standing. The charred fountain empty and long since cracked. The doors would swing open as if the building was taking in its first breath...its first guest since last Blitz was there...indeed it was. Few trespassed here and even fewer without knocking or announcing themselves. Not that it mattered. The moment Blitz would cross that threshold he would feel it. Those cold eyes on him as if he was already being watched. In a way he was as he entered Sero's sensory range. The entire palace was within that range. Nothing moved or lived here in his domain he did not know of now. To Blitz it would be obvious that Sero was indeed home. That he could feel him even now meant only that the menace was growing.

Still the halls would remain empty and dark. No fire announcing the boy or leading the way. He was known here...he was expected here. A being constructed to know wrath as his master did. Taught to kill with purpose as his master did. Yet there was more to it now. A conservation of energy from the man. He could feel Blitz now and his growth. He could feel that surging chakra as if he could almost reach out and grasp it. Yet he allowed the boy to continue to the throne room. He allowed him to casually claim a seat. One meant for a council of the Kaguya clan but left vacant to gather dust in this place. All things simply left to gather dust and be forgotten. Still he would speak and his words would not fall upon deaf ears. Instead as he spoke for Sero to reveal himself he would feel the familiar pressure. The sensation of the hairs on the back of his neck rising. The feeling of a whisper on his ears he could not hear clearly. Sero was already in the room with him. Already close enough to be within that aura....close enough to be dangerous.

The light from outside that followed Blitz in seemed dim but it provided enough light to see with some effort. One pillar of light into this room from the outside. Yet the shadows seemed to loom ever higher as Sero stepped forth. The shadows seemed to reach out from the wall and dance along him as he appeared to emerge from the building itself. The glow of his purple eyes taking in Blitz as the shadows clung to him. Like a lover wanting him to stay. Still he stepped forward and he looked different. Taller with dark hair and purple eyes...yet there was no mistaking that blank expression and the power behind those eyes...the sensation of fear present all around him. Like no other Sero stood before Blitz with purple eyes gazing down at his own. Speaking in a calm tone as the shadows seemed to echo his words like distant whispers.

"Do you mean to train Blitz or do you mean to challenge? In this house it means two different things. One who wishes to train under me would show respect...knocking and bowing. One who wishes to challenge would flaunt themselves as you have. So....are you here to challenge me Blitz?"

Sitting down in the mildly lit room with now a familiar presence around him it was clear that he was welcomed but it was also clear that the other desired a challenge such as he did but it was something to only keep him on par with the others. Respecting this man enough to come into his domain and challenge him seemed to be the best thing to do these days. The pressure he was passing around in the room was indeed something he admired but regardless such a task fell to him. To grow in such a habitat that even he would find it hard to recognize himself after whipping off the blood and sweat from his skin. Listening to the words fall upon his ears he could only laugh out loud for a little bit before standing up himself. The man wanted a proper greeting before things got physical, a simple request especially for allowing him to come into his beloved home.

Blitz slightly bowed his head to the male before once more raising it to meet him eye to eye as he could only smile upon the opportunity to once more train against such a person in the village. Even if the other felt he was imposing a little he had hoped his gesture was a show of good fate but that did not mean he was ready to release the trigger and not try his hardest when facing such an opponent. Thinking on the very matter it seemed after he was brought in this was the second face he was used to seeing around even after the run in with death it was only one person who stood out before the rest showed. Ironic how it was the only face he did not mind clashing blows with even if the results were indeed the same time and time again he could only learn from source. Before starting Blitz let out a chuckle before clearing his passages and replying back to the host of the night.

“Of course we’re training but who said I can not challenge you all the same? It's better to keep each other sharp and in good shape is it not? Besides I doubt we’ll be having these little training sessions as often as we want as time advances. So why not push each other till failure? The new look you have going on tells me it comes with a new attitude and mindset or am I wrong?”

Blitz gazed upon the male directly in his eyes before smiling once more. It was simple but calm the two men at least ten or fifteen meters apart from each other now with the other appearing in such a different form. It was clear whatever training he was undergoing he was not stopping until he changed everything about himself maybe or about the world they lived in either way he was there to witness it first hand. The distance was indeed close but he could only think of something to keep the edge upon his teacher, keeping him guessing and moving was good enough for him to call it a spar as long as he continued to use his head for once. This training session was something to be different smiling now to the male as a grin took form from cheek to cheek showing his bare teeth. Blitz was willing to go all out as long as he pulled out all the stops he was willing to train and train no matter how many losses he took he was willing to sacrifice the only respect he could give the man was the value of his training.

Clasping his hands in front of his teacher he was already quick to form a set of hand signs following up by placing both of hands upon the stone tiled floor for him to see. Rapidly sending out a virus of cold chakra throughout the floor of the building as it would soon corrupt the walls around Blitz and his teacher. The jutsu reached out to forty meters quickly collecting and corrupting everything that was connected to the floor leaving large patches of ice upon the ground and wall. Quickly dropping the temperature from within the building to the point where each party could now see their breath he would now only wonder if the other could tell what was going on from this point on.

Bending his knees a little bit he had no fear in his movements yet he saw no way to advance forward in such moments there was only one way to prove yourself of such honor and that was through combat. In a mere second he attempted to close out the gap between the two shinobi but it easily could have opened another pathway for him to advance he had to see for himself. Pushing himself out forward launching out towards Sero cutting off the distance between the both of these shinobi, Blitz gave out full potential with nothing for himself to regret as he grew closer he only needed to make sure that the male himself was ready for the action that was going to come along with this training. The closer he got the more his palms would have appeared to be different to his enemy if he was watching once closing the gap the difference in both of hands were something fierce he thought of before applying a little dose of something wicked he created.

Each claw upon each hand came about to six inches long made from the coldest ice he could cultivate but the speed itself was something he was attempting to work on to become more of a warrior. Coming in for his first attack Blitz lifted both of palms now infused with the ice the weapons he made for himself Blitz rapidly swung with a combo like attack starting off aiming from up to bottom the left shoulder was his first target. The combo was fierce and quick as the shinobi would come down upon both left and right shoulders of his training partner. A fierce combo but starting off strong was something needed to do and this was the perfect way keeping the male in front of him at such speeds he wanted to know if dodging an attack like this was even possible but moving and staying on his toes meant he was ready to fight.

Spoiler:

Sero would listen. He stood before the young human. No manner of emotions on his face but those glowing purple eyes took him in. He would show respect and that much would be taken into consideration. He could feel the mans chakra now. On the edge of becoming something sharper. Something willed to destroy him if it could. He had sensed this before from men. None like Blitz but lesser men all the same. Lashing out at him for the beast he was. Sending cascades of jutsu into the mist in the vain hope that somehow it would deter him from their end. Yet he had no desire to kill Blitz. If anything he could sense the impressive power within him. Still those words would echo to him. He was here to challenge the master of the house. He who clung to his ice as one may to their faith. Such a silly concept faith was....blind belief in some being or cause. To act on faith was to blind oneself. Sero was not blind to the one before him. Nor would he remain idle as the man began to build his chakra. His own hands shifting to move as well.

"So be it."

Sero emerged fully from the shadows. By his appearance his attire was rather normal. A black pair of slacks with black shoes and a black button up with long, wide sleeves. However for now he didn't bother to hide his own hand signs. As Blitz began his series Sero would begin his own. Rat → Ox → Dog → Horse → Monkey → Boar → Tiger. All in rapid succession. Finishing roughly at the same time Blitz did. However Blitz had chosen to use a technique that held him in place for a moment. If only a moment. Sero had chosen another path. Even as the ice began to spread his hand would open as a mouth might. Emerging from it would be a brilliant green flame. Rushing out at A rank speed as a burst of heat and light. The chamber being lit ablaze as the entire room burst into brilliant flame. If the flame encountered Blitz's jutsu it would cancel out two of the A rank jutsu in the process. However the entire chamber would light ablaze. He would either need to put it out to remain or burn. If he stayed put that was. Not that Sero intended to remain himself.

The fire was fantastic cover for him to move along the ceiling. Launching himself up and above the flames and at A rank speed move the opposite that Blitz had charged. Slipping out of the throne room into the massive hall lined with huge bone pillars and cast into shadows. From there he would fly down the hall at A rank speed to the doors. Keeping track of Blitz through sensory. The length of the hall was about one hundred meters long, thirty meters wide and thirty meters tall. A pillar every ten meters on either side of the hall evenly with no windows. Once he reached the doors he would simply reach out and close them. Plunging the hall into darkness once more before he moved behind a pillar. His voice echoing across the chamber as he spoke to the young man clearly and loudly. Due to the size of the place and its design his voice would seem to echo from everywhere.

"You still charge straight on woefully relying on your ice abilities Blitz. Now I wonder...how will you challenge someone when you cannot see your opponent...when they can attack you from any direction at any time? In the books of old stories in fantasies I always found it foolish when the knight fought the dragon in his nest....do you see the resemblance here? Are you not a foolish knight and I the dragon?"

Jutsu:

Placing his hands upon the tile floor was nothing to scoff at with the sight of his opponent's body language and new appearance was something he was fond of as he witnessed him now coming head to head with such a powerful move. With the speed he was moving at directly charging such power he could feel the heat upon his skin the moment he took off heading for his opponent. Quickly using the ice under his feet to turn his direction from the fire into the doorway catching some heat upon his clothing and skin burning his right forearm sending his nerves into a frenzy. This heat indeed was the best he ever showed him something with such power to burn his clothing to dust and nearly melt his skin but yet the jutsu wasn't fast enough to fully envelope his body in the flames. Crashing through the doorway he came back into the long dark hallway with the remnants of the flames dancing upon his kimono before being patted out his right arm on the other hand was badly burned from his elbow to his wrist. Such pain only made him cackle a little as now the male seemed to be more serious than previously even burning a chamber to push whatever limits he saw fit. His attention was split from his arm to the voice echoing through the hall placing him as the knight and the other a mythical creature with such flames spewing out from his body indeed he was curious on much he could take.

One more attack such as that would end this session and send him packing back home with more scars then he came with but indeed it was finally good to see and feel what he has been praying to them. The holes in his clothing were shown as he now was faced with darkness and silence after the male was done speaking this indeed was something new to him with such power he even wondered why the other wanted to talk. But the pain from earlier could only suggest that he was simply giving him a little taste of true fire, turning his head a little bit to the lit room that was now being eaten by the flames; he could only assume the owner would replace all those he lost in the fire that day. From the voice of his teacher, indeed this training session would be another enjoyable moment for him to learn more from such a shinobi using one seal as Blitz summoned four water clones around him. Each walked out to about 20 meters away from Blitz keeping him in the middle as they watched and remained on the lookout to preserve his body. Watching his blind sides covering him from the front and the rear during this time Blitz focused upon his sensory abilities to aid him in finding such a man first only reaching half way through the hall stopping at fifty meters he applied more into his concentration increasing his sensory by another fifty meters now covering the complete hallway where he found the chakra pressure of the male hiding in the shadows. Blitz replied to the male for a brief moment loud but calm even feeling the sting from his right arm he could only power through his injuries till he was too injured to continue.

“I told you others outside of this village wouldn’t take it easy on us.. Finally a scar to prove that you’re serious!”

Everything he did to this point was always a lesson and a trap yet Blitz knew he had no choice but to spring it in order to get any traction. Releasing his hold on the concentration it seemed the other was willing to go as far and deep as he wanted to slowly but surely exhausting his opponent with the four clones standing at the present he knew from which direction the other was hiding. From such a distance he could only do one thing to continue this training and that was attempt whatever he had in mind. Lifting one seal into the air in the sign of a snake Blitz quickly began to throw up a large volume of water quickly filling up the hallway creating a large crashing wave down towards where he last felt the chakra of his teacher. The water now under his feet as he slowly began to elevate riding the current of waves that were now sent crashing down the hallway coming in at full force devouring and consuming the corridor in water. Without hesitation he was already bracing for whatever counter the other had under his sleeve for such a move or if this was even a right counter move to be dealing with when in a tight situation such as this. Regardless whatever was to become of him after this training session he doubted it would leave a lasting impression before he came back to the male for more training. Yet the only respect he could see giving him was that he was ready for more combat and less complaining.

“....”

Spoiler:

Sero would listen to words about scars and battle. Enemies lurking just out of sight. He would divide himself up into multiple clones. Watching and waiting for an attack. Sero could feel him splitting off but what he hadn't expected was to feel sensory touching him as well. However for Blitz this would be a different sensation. His chakra touching Sero's like that. So brazen and impudent. He would feel himself as if he were suddenly so alone in that hall. As if those clones of his were just deterrents against something much darker at the end of the hall. For all his training....for all he had experienced only one such thing brought him close to this sensation before. When he had laid there bleeding in the woods. His team over him trying to stop the bleeding of an attack he had suffered from ignorance. The sensation of life leaving him was what he felt when he touched Sero with his sensory. All that could be touched there was death. Perhaps for most it would be enough. To be burned by fire and know its power...its destructive capabilities....but for Blitz it was different. Only through experiencing a thing could he become it...only by suffering could he grow.

Still the use of water against a Hozuki....it seemed almost laughable. Yet Sero could sense it being built. No laughter escaped his lips. No surge of joy at such a jovial action. Instead there was a moment of pause. Allowing Blitz to finish his hand signs even as Sero began his own. One jutsu in each hand at the speed that Blitz had accomplished with two. His left hand would lift. Dragon, Boar, Serpent, horse, hare, bird, Ram, Ox. Simultaneously his right hand would move as well. Tiger->Rabbit->Dog. Once it was finished Blitz was well on his way. Rushing him at B rank speed upon the wave. Fifty meters out....forty meters out. Thirty....twenty... Only once he was within twenty meters would Sero calmly touch the floor. As he did the only warning Blitz would receive was sheer killing intent. It wasn't a strong technique by any means....but the timing...Blitz would have only a moment to avoid being torn apart. Madness was coming for him and he must not meet it unprepared. He would not get within ten meters before the techniques clashed and his wave would do him no good.

From between them the floor would seem to surge up and twist. Pulling the very walls down into it like liquid as the sky opened up. The ceiling.....the walls...all the bone was simply gone as a hundred meters tall and a hundred meters wide of spinning barbed bone would shoot up and forward at B rank speed. Spinning and tearing the very castle around it apart as Sero stood behind the sheer destruction of it. A path cut through his own castle a hundred meters wide and a hundred meters tall. The barbed bone drill enhanced by giant shuriken technique. Combining two low tier jutsu with the A tier hardness of the Kaguya bone. No B rank water wave ever could have resisted its sheer force. Nor could it break the structure of the beast. Sero however remained alert. Watching for how Blitz would escape this massive counter. How his clones would handle it.

Jutsu:

From within as he felt his chakra Blitz felt a moment of weakness before feeling the deeds of his actions up to now the reason why he pushed the others were now being seen once more as his body felt the shock of death. His eyes even began to water a little before closing the distance upon his sensei but he could not run from it if death was waiting for him he knew it waited for them all. Feeling a hand upon his right shoulder it wasn’t his clones but Burittsu squeezing tightly from his subconscious watching ever so closely on this day with his own twisted smile wondering if it was time for Blitz to really be serious about being a shinobi. Yet this time he said no words to throw the shinobi off. He was there to watch and see how strong he could get on his own. That day was the day he died and somehow came back to life only thanks to his squad and teacher, the man he now had destroyed his own building. Some student he was to make such a mess of the place if he had too after he wouldn’t mind pinching in some money to aid in funding the place. Indeed as a student and a shinobi I was lost on both ends but learning from these people training was the only answer and taking it lightly was not the way to live especially in such a world. Coming ever so closely now about forty meters and soon thirty Blitz was ready for the assault more than ever gathering himself and readying to see the jaws of death once more. His body felt as if he was shaking but he could only advance forward as one should expect of a shinobi to give their life for those who need to see tomorrow. Standing up he could only feel the pressure loosen as a slight chuckle rang in his ears causing him to smile in such situations.

“....”

Crashing down the hallway was a bold move but Blitz with his squad of  clones were ready for the assault on their own teacher. But it was all a trap as he anticipated the shinobi was shown another door when he attempted to take a step the beast himself destroyed the very floors from underneath the building turning into a large mighty weapon. With his quadron of clones Blitz leaped off the water now being challenged once more by a real shinobi with deadly potential time was of the essence so he formulated a quick solution. During his jump Blitz increased his distance from the trap by at least six meters making the range from him and his teacher now twenty six meters. During this time all four of the water clones angled themselves to shield Blitz lining up in a straight row acting as a wall. While themselves began weaving identical hand seals. Tiger > Rat > Horse > Snake > Dragon > Hands clap. During this time Blitz himself weaving his own hand seals Tiger > Horse > Ram > Monkey holding the final seal.

As he watched the destruction unfold, he held out for his attempt whilst watching the four clones in front of him began to violently expel a strong condensed spray of violent water, one of the clones aimed to destroy the bones. As the other aimed directly for his teacher on the right side of the shinobi the remaining two simultaneously aimed towards his teacher giving him three divided shots. Attempting to keep him on his toes and moving he planned to distract him the best he could. He doubts he would let such jutsu reach him but for the meantime it was to keep him at bay. Watching as the violent spray of water tore through the bones. Blitz only could continue to focus his attention on the corresponding area he was only twenty-six meters away from his target watching the work of the crushing force the water tears its way making impact with the bones destroying them from precise pressure.


Sending the dust and debris flying throughout the sky Blitz released his technique lowering the temperature around him to zero degrees this cold was felt to about sixty meters. Using the range to his advantage he wondered if this would be the one time, he had a chance. Being the caster Blitz used himself as the center point, instantly freezing the clones in front of him and anything from his body out to about sixty meters, freezing more than half of the remaining hallway. The air itself became strict and compressed quickly squeezing around his teacher attempting to capture him within A rank strength ice. If subdued the battle would end there as the area around Blitz and his sensei was cold enough to see their breaths and the destruction of the building itself was something to be questioned later. Blitz only kept his eyes locked upon his teacher attempting to capture him and freeze him within zero-degree ice, capturing him within his ice was the plan as the clones served their purpose, he now attempted to capture the man. Keeping his composure, he felt as if he was in control against such a monster, he could only try what he knew without hesitation Blitz he would attempt to freeze the teacher. Encasing him and immobilizing him for two posts.

"...."

Spoiler:

Sero would see the suiton chakra welling up within the clones with his sensory. It was enough to destroy the bones along with the wave and then some. So much chakra coming at him at once would usually be cause for concern. But for all he had learned suiton was his servant. He would watch patiently a moment as the clones sliced apart his drill and attempted to do the same to him. Purple glowing eyes would settle on the one who had not cast a jutsu. The one gaining the most distance with the largest pool of chakra. He didn't seem to care for the combination suiton attack splitting the destroyed floor and rushing to cut him. Instead the highly pressurized water would slice along through him. Yet he did not budge nor did he appear to be harmed by the water blades. They simply passed through him and his clothes as if they could not touch him. As water passes through water. His eyes held Blitz's as he would raise his hands. All this water around him and he would prepare to use it. To show Blitz a new level of power....the most powerful technique of the Hozuki.

Yet he would pause for just a moment as Blitz landed. "You are not yet ready for that technique." He would state before noticing the rapid expansion of the ice. He had seen a technique like this before. He would change what he had been preparing for something much less. The half tiger seal would be held as Sero would launch backwards at S rank speed with Body Flicker. At such speeds Blitz would merely see his master phase out of his sight. In a mere moment Sero would appear eighty meters from Blitz. Noting the range of the technique as it halted sixty meters from Blitz. His eyes shifted to the man as he stood there a moment calmly. The ice was more effective than the suiton but at least Blitz had learned a few techniques. He was certainly stronger though mismatched at the moment. Still Sero would contemplate for a moment what to do. He had to keep Blitz at a range away from him but anything that entered the cold would freeze. So Sero would calmly shift to a technique that didn't matter if it passed through such intense cold. A fuuton technique would work wonderfully here. It was time to shift gears.

Sero would lift his hands as he quietly raced through a small combination of seals. Tiger → Hare → Dragon. Once finished flower petals would seem to swarm around him from the edge of the burned yard. The leaves rushing forward. Freezing as they entered the absolute zero domain. However they continued to float along as pedals may despite this difference. Flying at Blitz directly from Sero at A rank speeds. Sero would focus on controlling these. If Blitz moved forward Sero would move back. It was only a matter of time with those petals chasing him down at A rank speed. Following him and homing in on him bit by bit. Purple eyes watching with a deadly calm. After all if the cyclone of frozen petals reached him....it would begin to slice him to ribbons. Tearing at the flesh like little blades that danced around him. Chasing him down like a hungry flock as the light glistened off of them from the outside. Sero was a Ninjutsu specialist not just because he could use it...but because he was versatile in his attacks and their power. Blitz would struggle naturally against such an enemy.

Jutsu:

Standing in the middle of the chaos Blitz wasn’t surprised at the fact that he was now alone with nothing to show for it but his resolve to continue the fight. He was gone from his sight but using his sensory abilities he was able to tell from his whereabouts how far he got 80 meters out and twenty meters away from his jutsu. Yet again he failed to finish the job and now must bear the burden of what was to come feeling the chakra of his Sensei expanding. Something indeed was coming forth his way as the male did not move for the time being. Gazing out into the distance of his cold domain he was surely ready for whatever he had planned to come to get him knowing this shinobi had something planned for any occasion, something that taught Blitz to be prepared for the unexpected. His words yet again rang in his ear he wasn’t ready for whatever the male had for him causing him to refrain from using such an ability to really test out Blitz. Hearing that from his teacher it was clear that he disappointed the male and himself for not being strong enough to stand up against whatever he had originally planned. From within his domain he watched everything slowly but surely waiting for something to catch his vision and it sure did show itself in the appearance of glimmering light.

Fluttering through the air but coming at a rapid speed this was no coincidence whatever he saw was coming towards him the way it moved through his domain wasn't something he had seen before but the air like qualities could only mean one thing. Due to the male being out of reach by twenty meters and this jutsu he was being pushed in an attempt to back him into a corner. Clasping his hands quickly forming a set of seals Tiger > Ram > Monkey the hair of Blitz would turn white and quickly harden and start to grow thicker and longer during this time his hair itself would grow long enough to reach down his back as from the front the length they would stop just above his knees. Due to him being six feet the length of his hair now sat upon his body his goal was to push forward regardless of the results. At the end he had to learn how to get around on his own feet he knew the male would rather keep on pushing from a distance then be caught in the jutsu he was attempting to get him back into. A pain indeed and something he would have to work on but for now his only plan was his best plan in an attempt to keep him back he would also be wasting his own chakra.

Training with such a beast was only bound to get him riled up and thinking quickly taking his first step subconsciously activating his jutsu quickly skating towards the incoming attack closing in upon it. As he started counting down the distance, he was till he made contact letting the gap close in till the 20-meter marker as he began to shoot a volatile amount of medium sized ice projectiles each in the shape of a senbon. Each senbon reaching out to about only 15 meters he made sure to get the assault going while removing his father's blade Blitz placed himself into a certain stance while skating across the field. Keeping his jutsu active he was allowed to see some of the attack heading his way as he began to mow down the oncoming onslaught of what seemed like leaves fallen from a tree. Such things reminded him of a sakura tree as his jutsu started to clear the path heading straight towards the source of this madness. Blitz continued to have the domain active pushing its boundaries well over its current limit but due to the speed he was surely hoping he could apply more pressure continuing down this path of recklessness. He battled his way towards the male closing the distance in an attempt to capture him back in the range let alone battle him out face to face for but all was on his whim.

The way he moved he was content on keeping him at bay and further from the distance. If somehow Blitz was able to get the male back inside the domain he would close in on him within twenty meters before leaping into the air and extending out his hair follicles to slam down upon his teacher. An attempt to entrap him once more was bold but keeping the domain active and him on his toes was the only thing he had going for him at this point. Defending his blind sides and weak points he charged fighting off the pain as he received several cuts from the petals that made their way through destroying almost all but leaving some in its wake. There was enough doubt in his mind to know this plan would not go without repercussions but so was his life as a shinobi things have always been tough making him eventually a diamond. He could only try and continue on his path learning from the male he wanted to leave nothing behind on this day, especially with the way they left the building in the back of his mind he could only get ready for something to happen as he attempted to get closer to begin the counter.

Spoiler:

Sero would watch as the man seemed to grow an exoskeleton of ice as armor. Some blades getting through but barely drawing blood. He was burned....nearly exhausted....bleeding and still he charged onwards. As a hero might to overcome a villain. Truth be told the child was to be admired for his foolish bravery. To comitt so fully as one may consider a night amidst the blizzards only seen in the mountains far to the north. From above them he had dropped the temperature so greatly that the mist seemed to crackle bit by bit as tiny bits of ice shattering as their weight broke the bits of frozen water in the sky. A long echo filling the mist hiding them away naturally. Pools of water shimmered and stopped all movement in the wind. Frozen solid mid ripple. Snow began to fall from the sky as a reaction to Blitz pushing himself so far. He had brought winter before death as another unstoppable force. However this was folly. For all his growth...all that power rushing after a challenge to help him grow....he simply had not grown enough. Not to overcome what he ran to. Instead Sero would speak to himself as he launched backwards to maintain distance.

"Very well. Since you persist yet I will acknowledge you this once. Prepare yourself for what is to come...for what you have wrought upon yourself."

Quietly Sero would form the seal of confrontation. Mist filling the space around him entirely as he was cut off from vision. Around Sero the mist would begin to swirl. In mass it would flood to him away from the ice as it fled to its master. As if he controlled the very water around them. And so he did. The massive swirling of mist began to thicken as streams of it flooded into him. Continuing to keep Blitz at a distance as he launched back and away from him. Tracking him with sensory. That white hair of his was likely some sort of ice technique as well. However it did not cause Sero to hesitate. No fear of these techniques as the mist swallowed him within it. However he would stop running as the mist was taken in. The mist hiding what awaited within. Blitz would sense the chakra but would he know not to approach it? Either way his aura would begin to freeze the mist solid. Encasing Sero within whatever he had done.

As Sero would be encased and Blitz would move in to ensure his captive was held tight, launching his white hair ahead of him....he would be confronted by the ball of mist shattering. A massive fish made of water was forcing its way through the ice out of no where. It's S rank strength ripping through it all. Sero had become something massive instead. It would reach out with a water like hand to grab the hair. Snatching it up at A rank coordination and yanking on it with S rank strength. Yanking Blitz towards Sero as he spun. Only to be met with another S rank blow as a wall of water solid as bricks would spinning it him as the fin would smack him with S rank strength. If he took that head on with his hair or armor or without a great deal more defense mid air, he would be sent flying back at S rank speeds until he smacked into the far wall of what was left of the hallway. Sero watching him in one of his ultimate forms to see if he could still stand after an S rank attack.

Jutsu:

Making his way deeper into the trap as he took on the attack the area around him grew only thicker with mist alerting him that this male was indeed up to something but whatever it was it was far too late for Blitz to do anything about it. Feeling the chakra of the man was normal for him at this point but the way his chakra expended out only made him react from earlier when he decided to blaze the shinobi and the room in flames. He didn’t have time to think of it anymore due to the fact he was now introduced to a mighty fish, one that wasn’t summoned but belonged to the soul creator himself. It was clear this was one of his final abilities for people who seemed to make it far enough to survive training but it mattered not the man with his low chakra and the way the battle was now lasting due to the pace of one opponent. This was the final trick for this day again Blitz was going to lose to his teacher once more being pulled into the air with incredible strength he could only brace for impact by moving his hair in position to receive the oncoming force that belonged to death itself. The hair itself only acting as the shield started to shatter upon the impact as Blitz felt the rest of the force and pressure upon his body sending him soaring across the land and quickly back into the embrace of the destroyed building. Smashing against the wall and soon laying on his back breathing hard as blood began to pour from his head leaving a path upon his skin but in time it was all going to go away with only some time and healing. Even with the jutsu giving him a cushion it only lasted for so long before the pain itself took its course and reminded him that at his current level he would have been training harder.

Maybe on this day he could have tried harder but laying on his back as he tried his hardest not to give into the pain with all this in mind Blitz moved his right arm gazing down on the injury from earlier. Giving out a little chuckle before feeling the pain erupt from inside in his body in response it was clear he was defeated and broken down a little bit from the pain he was feeling. Placing his hand upon his sides as they became unbearable to touch he understood that this battle was over and this was his last leg of the session even standing up would only give him so much energy to stay in one place for the time being till he caught up with his body. Continuing to breathe hard as he paced himself, Blitz gritted his teeth and placed one hand upon the wall behind him to push him off as the other was placed on the ground to keep him supported on top of his feet. As he climbed his way back to standing slowly but surely, using the wall as support now to keep him from falling the wind was definitely blown out of his body as he took one more deep breath before his body retaliated and forced him to cough out blood. Spilling some on his kimono as the rest painted the floor in front of him giving out another chuckle before staring out into the distance as he was only faced with a large fish used to finish the battle.

Smacking him hard enough to release all his jutsu and free the environment of his cold wrath the training was over he had nothing else to say or feel but the disappointment in himself was the only thing he could feel. Taking a step forward it seemed the impact itself was strong enough to loosen more than his bones as the headband given to him by his savior slipped off his body and onto the ground. Dripping a little blood upon the insignia that was branded on the headband watching fill in the cracks turning the symbol of the village into a red mist symbol. Bleeding and defeated Blitz slowly leaned down picking up the headband as the blood dripped began to pour out of the insignia and onto the cloth absorbing the liquid as some of the blood continued to make its way dripping on the floor where he stood. Gazing upon it for sometime he could only end up smiling to himself wondering if he was chosen for the sake of his own health or for the sake of the village regardless the time spent training was used for good work. This time he was defeated once more by his teacher but this time he ended it with something he never seen before, a move he probably only used for real situations such an ability was out of his reach for now but it was indeed something he admired. Tying the headband upon his forehead keeping it secure as his head began to ache and hurt from the blow he just received. Blitz decided it was best he head for the hospital to rest every fiber in his body urging him to run but in his mind he was willing to die to get better gazing upon the fish with nothing but curiosity on how to engage on something so fierce. His eyes began to grow to dim as it was clear the time was indeed up for the male sliding his back upon the wall as he continued to gaze at his teacher once more before slowly lifting up his burned arm. Giving him a thumbs up as a signal he was alright as usual his pride was hurt but standing was the only thing he could do after all. Speaking a little bit as the blood ran from his mouth forcing him to spit out more before talking he could barely say anything yet audible enough for the other to hear. Yet he spoke out to himself knowing this was his limit.

“Sensei.. Incredible…”

As long as he remained standing he had a chance to prove his worth instead of staying down begging for the pain he felt to stop even as he bled and continued to cough up blood he knew he could only move forward. Living through his battles seemed the only thing he could do indeed emotionally he was hurt on how weak he still was not enough to do anything. Turning his back upon his teacher after a couple of moments thinking to himself he held his ribs and began to walk towards the corner before sliding back down the wall almost falling to the floor. As he fell he could only see his arms move for him catching him as they gripped upon the wall. Maybe it was own sheer will or the will of the other pushing him from within as he used the wall to maneuver his way slowly leaving the area with only a smile upon his face. Making his way to the hospital he knew this was only the start of real training, something that he had not seen but something he knew he could not run from in his mind the world probably had more monsters then they did in this village. In a way that only excited him from his very core as he shed a quick tear and continued to venture forth holding down his pain with every step and cough. Others would have seen it as a suicidal path to become strong enough to rival monsters such as these shinobi but too him it was the only way he could see himself surviving in this harsh world.

Burittsu silently watched from within the boy watching him battle and struggle to survive without any of his help. This battle was one he wanted to see if the kid had any courage or swagger to handle. The results were the same as before, just a stronger move was placed in his way pushing him and pushing him till he ended up nearly broken. Yet he remained on his feet till the end not enough pride to keep him fighting but enough pride to know when he lost and now he is seeking aid from the medical officials. Smiling from within he watched the boy develop his own self of awareness rather than go off being killed and wasted potential this was indeed a turning point for both of them. Letting him fight a monster such as this was a bad start but knowing the boy he wouldn’t have listened to the thought of him actually listening to others only made him cry of laughter from within as he remained to himself letting the male focus on making it to the hospital. Speaking softly to himself as he watched Blitz walk the streets of the village leaving a trail of blood behind him he could only wonder if he was ready.

“Got a lot of things to learn...”

The blows would land solidly upon their target. Sending him soaring through the air with chunks of ice falling off him like snow. Sero had been pushed to using a special technique and that alone was enough for most jounin level threats. Even if only for a moment. However now once more before his sensei he faced defeat. However it had reached a new level. High ranking techniques had torn the castle asunder. Lines cut through bone and sections of the entire palace torn away or crushed. Ice melting everywhere around him now that the source of the technique had been crushed. Even as he flew the technique would maintain a moment to ensure that it stopped crusting over with ice. Once it was clear the ice held no more unnaturally cold effects the hidden clan technique would end. The water would all absorb inwards into itself before molding into the face it had known before. The face of Sero with his dark hair and purple eyes. The mass of water turned to one individual once more. His feet touching down in black shoes once more. However even the shoes were part of his body. Heated with katon energy it would melt through the thin layer of frost on the ground. Snow falling around them as he stepped forward.

Sero would walk through the frozen landscape. Snow falling from the temperature drop as he moved through a winter wonderland. Unscathed and without expression. Any flakes that fell to him would melt in the air before they could touch him. Still he walked casually forward. Arriving in the doorway even as Blitz managed to claw his way back up the wall at the far end. Destroyed bone littered between them with snow slowly beginning to cover it all. Sero would let purple eyes shift over the destruction before settling back upon the broken man before him. He was never sure what this particular human was trying to accomplish or why....However when they did attempt something they dedicated themselves. He had grown significantly before now and if the fight had continued much longer it may have pushed Sero to use the other power. However for now he would simply watch the man limp away to the hospital. Leaving Sero to contemplate that he may very well one day have to kill him....However he hoped not. Snuffing out a flame you helped build was unsatisfying. Still he would fill out a report in detail about the fight. Including a list of techniques used or if not known a general description. Including coming into Sero's home and challenging him in his own throne room with an attack. Sero included he hoped the hospitalization would count as a reprimand from himself.
