Yeah, sorry for the repost, but I noticed I forgot something. I DON'T OWN NARUTO! Glad I got that out. Next Chap, next week.

Chapter Two: Aoi Asahi; Ino's Stand

Three Hours Earlier

Genjutsu: the art of illusions. A Genjutsu can range from a simple altering of one's appearance to even staging a psychological assault on someone's mind. A very powerful and complex Genjutsu can even transform the entry way at a mountain's base that leads to an underground lair, into a fruitful, maze-like forest designed to confuse and disorientate and confuse. Only those who were the original designers, or at least learned from them, of this complex Genjutsu-based lair are able to recognize and navigate their way through, leave those with highly intoned and trained Genjutsu senses. If one was to take a sky high observation of the place, they would notice four mysterious figures entering the forest from four different locations.

Scene Break

The inside of this genjutsu base is not very easy to describe; for lack of a better term, it was blank. In fact, a more in-depth description would be a white void that seemed to stretch out for eternity. However, looks can be down right deceiving, as it was, in fact, only big enough for roughly ten individuals. The four mysterious people piled into the white room from various angles, each more different from the last.

Starting from the smallest, the first was a very small framed man who probably stood a little more than five feet. His head of hair was nonexistent, along with any facial hair of any kind. He had the features of a monk, being very light-skinned as if he strayed away from sunlight since a very young age, but with a hardened, mean spirited face with his dark brown eyes, as well as having a middle-aged look.

The second was a young woman with a height that stood a few more inches over the bald man, barely less than six feet. Her fiery red hair stood out the most out of the four. Her face spoke volumes on looks alone; her golden eyes seemed to permeate a much deeper wisdom than her silly, childish brown-skinned face portrayed.

The next was a young man, in his teenage years, with dark skin and a head full of long, silvery hair that stopped in the middle of his back. His hair seemed to sparkle in the bright room, despite being dimmed in its constant, pony-tailed state. His face seemed to being a contrast in itself; his mouth was soft and gentle while his eyes, a striking, a beautiful hue of lavender, a light purple, were battle hardened and fierce.

The last was a behemoth of a man, towering the others with his eight-foot height. He was very fair-skinned, with long black hair that was braided into long dreads down to the base of his neck. His eyes were hidden by a pair of black sunglasses while the bottom half of his face was covered by a slightly ruggedly shaved goatee along his chiseled jaw. The most peculiar thing about him was a weird string of tattooed, black ink symbols that ran down his neck.

The one thing they all had in common was their outfits: white open hakatas along with white khakis. What made them special was the logo of a blue sun stamped all over both articles of clothing.

As all four came together in a small huddle, the redheaded women stepped into the very center.

"All right, men, you know the drill. Roll Call. Yuri Ekichiku," she says in a loud commanding voice.

The tall beast of a man promptly walked in the middle, taking Yuri's place as she stepped back, before saying as well, in a low, calm voice,

"Jin Suji."

He steps back, allowing the shortest member to take his turn in the center.

"Sano Hirogari."

The teen comes up last as he says in a half smile,

"Kaishin Garyuu."

As he steps back into the mini circle, the young woman's face grows annoyed as she continues on where she left off.

"All right, now, enough wasting time; let's commence with the meeting. Does anyone have anything to report, or have I just wasted a whole day bringing you all together?"

Kaishin, the silver haired teen, speaks up.

"Well, it seems that they've mobilized. From the looks of it, Operation: Genetic Merger may be well in its final testing stages of activation."

"Are you serious? Last time we met, you said that Iwagakure was still locating more abilities! You mean to tell me that after only a couple more months of locating and researching, they've begun to mobilize? Man, usually the Tsuchikage is an even more patient man; he must've grown more confident," the bald man known as Sano voices out.

"Well, wouldn't you? He must have found a gold mine and starting working away as quickly as possible, along with the research he already put in. It was only a matter of time before they became operational," Jin says in a low voice.

Sano looks at the giant and chuckles out in a surprising humor,

"Well, it seems you can talk! After a whole year of silence, I thought you had become a mute!"

Jin simply growls at the man, invoking another joke at his expense.

"I guess we're back to animal grunts again, huh, big guy," tapping him slightly on the shoulder with a very light punch.

Jin forms a smile on his stone face, eliciting a stare from the other two bystanders.

"Normally, I do prefer to stay silent in these meetings since I haven't had much to report regarding war talk among the villages in a while. But, seeing as how you suddenly like to keep talking down to me as if I was a petulant child, suddenly feel the need to say something. If you keep up with condescending attitude, I won't hesitate to kill you! Don't forget your rank, Sano," Jin ends off his speech by going back to his calm tone again.

Sano's smile quickly disappears from his features, prompting him to move back a bit from the hulking figure, bringing about on a smirk on Kaishin's face before he continues on with his report.

"Where was I? I seemed to have lost from my place from the interruption," he says in a smart-alecky tone which only serves to irritate the bested Sano. "Oh, yeah, it also seems that in a few hours Konoha will be sending in their messenger to relieve the current Suna spy located in Iwagakure; tomorrow, the replacement should be arriving."

Yuri puts her hand up to her chin in deep thought; she lets out a sigh before she says,

"Well, I guess it's time for one of us to oversee the exchange again this time, and seeing as how I did it the last few times, so I guess that means I'm exempt," the last word she says with a smile on her face.

"WHAT!"

The other three inhabitants of the room, minus a silent Jin, erupt at her last comment, their eyes bulging out of their heads. Kaishin was the first to overcome the stupor from her comment.

"How is that fair? You know that is not how we settle things. Need I remind you of our end-all decision maker?"

Sano cosigns with Kaishin's debate, hoping to settle the matter fairly, but that didn't seem to be the case.

"Listen here, Kai-kun," her steps enclosing on the silver haired debater as her voice held a certain edge to it, "I know it may seem like it isn't fair, but the thing is, as of right now, your opinion on this matter means absolutely shit to me, seeing as how: a) I'm the current leader of our group, b) you are the only one of us who has never been on the exchange duty in your life, so you have no right to complain, and c) most importantly, I've been on every one of them since the start of my membership, and I, for one, won't be going on any more."

As she went through her speech, she was getting closer and closer to Kaishin, until she was right in his face with an accusing finger on him.

"So, have we reached an understanding, Kai-kun?"

Kaishin kept silent throughout the entire length of her one-sided exchange of words, seeing as how everyone knew that it was common knowledge that whenever Yuri added such honorifics as "-kun" and even "-chan", she had become a highly pressured land mine, waiting to explode at the slightest impact. When she finished, then he decided to tread as lightly possible with his response.

"U-uh, yes, Yuri-ch…sama," he added the last honorific just to be on the safe side.

"Good, now that that's settled, you three will need to decide who will handle this mission. The remaining two will accompany me to the various head villages to get the word out. If the Tsuchikage has begun to mobilize, it would be in our best interests to help the lone messenger out," she says lightly as her personality does a complete back flip.

As she begins to walk away from the three, she looks back with a serious look on her face.

"Don't forget you guys, we are on a time limit. Hurry up and settle it, Jin, Sano, and you too, Kai-kun.

After she leaves out the blank room, Kaishin lets out a slight shudder as his near-death experience plays over in his mind, to which Sano laughs at him.

"Now, Kaishin, you know better than to anger you're precious Yuri-chan. Oops! I mean, Yuri-sama."

"Shut up! Let's just get it over with," Kaishin growls at Sano.

Jin holds out his fist as he says,

"Yes, now take you places."

The three men suddenly jump a few meters back as if to avoid some hidden danger and take up various fighting stances. Sano's stance was more aloof and easy going, Jin's was that of a gorilla, strong and sturdy, while Kaishin's stance was balanced with seemingly no weak point. The three quickly dashed at one another, their speed comparable to that of a high-ranked Jounin. Halfway to the center where they jumped from, each of them leaped halfheartedly into the air before coming down just as fast, yelling with the force of a hurricane. Before they touched the ground, they each pulled back a fist, aiming it at each other as it tightened with the crackling of thunder. Right when they touched the floor, they each shot out a fist at one another in a brazen display of strength, yelling out only one word…

"JANKEN!"

Scene Break

Janken: A game of pure luck, skill, and intimidation. If one has knowledge on another's mind set, psychological thinking, as well as a misleading hand, one can predetermine their opponent's choice and counter it. However, with a group such as this that have been together fro quite a while, this advantage is null and void; skill and intimidation are knocked out of the equation, leaving only pure luck and one other factor: determination. However, even that won't guarantee you a win…

Scene Break

The three men looked between each other to gauge the results of the Rock, Paper, Scissors contest known as "Janken". There were two rocks and one scissors; two faces that lit up as they were free from the aggravating duty known as the Exchange Mission, and one whose head sunk low to the floor.

"HA! Another mission I get out of. I hope my luck will never run out," the bald Sano boasts loudly.

"Sorry, Kaishin, but it looks like it's finally your turn," Jin says softly.

Kaishin looks at his pitiful toss, Scissors, and shakes his head in a depressed manner.

"I think Yuri jinxed me. The one time she actually openly complains about my Janken streak, and I lose!"

"Look on the bright side; if you didn't lose, you would be stuck on a mission with your precious Yuri-chan," Sano mocks.

A slight blush appears on Kaishin's face, making the purple-eyed youth leave the room to avoid embarrassment.

"The sooner I finish with this, the sooner I can get back to my Akatsuki mission."

Before he walks out of the white room, Jin places a firm hand on Kaishin's shoulder, stopping him from moving.

"Be careful with this, Kai-san. I've been on one of these missions before; be sure to expect the unexpected."

A small smirk graces Kaishin's face as he puts his hand over Jin's to remove it.

"Don't worry, Jin-san, with my abilities, this mission should be a total piece of cake. I swear on the honor of the Aoi Asahi (1)! I won't let another person get hurt on my watch," he says a bit sadly towards the end.

On that note, he walks calmly out of the room, causing Sano to laugh out again.

"He's a goner! Everyone knows that there hasn't been a single time when the scroll deliver hasn't been attacked to protect the identity of the spy."

Jin slowly turns his head to look back at Sano, shades lowered a bit, showing part of his fierce green eyes in a glare.

"Sano, I don't like repeating myself. Cut it out with this demeaning behavior; otherwise, you'll answer to me, or have you forgotten the fact that I was our leader's only good sparing partner since I was the only who matched up to him in terms of raw strength," he concludes while leaving out of the room.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, Jin-sama," he spits out while following suit after the two shinobis.

Present Time

The trees in the forest were all green and plentiful, proof of a thriving forest. The wild life can be easily seen if you focus on the forest floor or the trees. However, if you're moving at a very high speed, all of the little things in the forest appear only as blurs. Kaishin was speeding through the tree branches, his feet barely touching the tree before he lifts off in the split second afterwards. His face was construed into a scowl, the obvious annoyance plainly written on his face.

"Great! I arrive seven minutes late, and the whole exchange goes to hell! That Suna nin was dead and as for the Konoha nin, who knows where they are! Way to work it through, Kai!"

His form comes to a halt as he feels four chakra forces fluctuating in the distance.

"Oh, great, I guess they're up ahead, with company, and it seems I may have to step in," he sighs as he rubs his temples. "Oh, well. At least the three similar chakra signatures, which I assume is the enemy, appear to be mid-Chuunin leveled while the fourth is high-Chuunin leveled. Maybe they'll kill one of the three and make this mission a little easier for me...and boring. Hmm, good fight or weak fight, decisions, decisions," he says while holding his chin in a pondering manner.

"I'd better get this over with. I just hope whoever it is can last until I get over there; I don't want Yuri-chan mad at me again."

He bursts off in a vast showing of speed, leaping from tree to tree twice as fast as he was going earlier.

Scene Break

Ino's bad day had suddenly taken a turn for the worst. After a half an hour of constant running, they managed to catch up to her. She was almost impaled by a barrage of kunai again, but a well placed Kawarimi no Jutsu (2) managed to provide her with enough breathing room to formulate a better plan than hide and seek.

Ino's POV

This is just fucking beautiful! Three damn Chuunins! Well, I better think of a way out of this. Man, it's times like these that I wish I had Shikamaru's brilliant thinking ability. He probably would've eliminated them from the beginning, or at least made a better escape plan than just plain running. I'm stuck hiding in some bushes like a frightened rat. Ooh, this is such bull!

Take a deep breath, Ino, old girl. If you just focus, you'll be able to get out of this situation. Just grasp your surroundings, check your arsenal, and use them to your advantage...ok! I see a lot of moisture over the forest, meaning that it must have rained recently. Good, that's all I needed. When I get back home, I must remember to thank Ms. Forehead for mentioning that Ninja Exchange Program with the Hidden Mist Village. It was the most useful year of my life. Alright, time to get to work!

Normal POV

The three Iwa nins have been vigorously searching the forest, hoping to find and kill their current target. As they started to branch off into different directions to cover more ground, neither of them notices three figures lurking around them. The first of the trio, though, gets a suspicious look on his face when he hears a slight noise in the brush.

"What the," he whispers out, slightly worried that splitting up was a bad idea until he sees a squirrel crawling out it, overthrowing that notion when he realizes who he's up against.

"What am I worried for? It's just a single, dumb blonde girl."

"Is that so?"

The Iwa nin turns around, coming face to face with the young Yamanaka girl.

"So, you've decided to face me head up, huh, little girl?"

"Well, it was either you or the other two. It was a choice, seeing as how the three of you look exactly alike."

"That's what being triplets can do to you."

"You don't say. So do you guys get mistaken for each other all the time?"

"Actually, we do get," the Iwa nin quickly comes to his senses before he answers all the way.

"You manipulating little...you're dead!"

He quickly lunges at the girl with lightning speed, effectively getting a stranglehold on Ino's neck. The force of his charge causes them both to fall of the tree branch they were occupying. Ino, thinking quickly, turns them around and applies chakra to her feet to catch herself on the side of the tree. The Iwa nin uses this to his advantage, performing a back roll down the side of the tree, tossing Ino down towards a waiting tree branch. She lands upright, only to be caught again from behind in a stranglehold by the agile ninja.

"This is the end for you, little girl," he says while applying more pressure to the hold.

Ino smirks as she manages to breathe out one word:

"Idiot."

Right then and there, another Ino appears from up ahead, going through a series of hand signs. The Iwa nin looks down at the supposed "Ino" in his grasp, a shocked expression obviously on his face. He isn't even given time to question it as the charging Ino sticks her hand inside the fake Ino's body.

"Suiton: Suiro no Jutsu (3)."

The Ino in the Iwa nin's grasp breaks down into water and forms a liquid orb around the Iwa nin. His eyes bulge out at the ease of which she caught him.

"This can't be," he speaks out, though it sounds partly gurgled due to the water barrier around him.

"Oh, but it is," another voice responds from behind him, revealing another grinning Ino. "This is my Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu (4), and you just fell for it," Ino mocks arrogantly.

The captured nin quickly gets irritated at how much the girl was gloating.

"What do you plan to do now, you little Konoha bitch!"

"Temper, temper," she says while wagging a finger in front of him. "Now, I'll finish off the next part of my special Suiton combo."

Ino runs through another of hand seals before ending with her arms folded at her sides.

"Hyōton: Suikirikaehi no Jutsu (5)!"

She breathes out a blue colored mist, which at sudden contact with the water, began to freeze it solid. The Iwa nin moves his limbs closer in an attempt to prevent them from becoming frozen like the rest of his watery prison.

"Seems like this is the end of line for you," Ino laughs out at her helpless opponent.

The Iwa nin looks up and release a hard glare with a fair amount of killer intent at the young kunoichi, causing her to step back a bit off instinct. Before she realizes it, the Iwa nin has already gone through his own sequence of seals.

"Katon: Enkō no Tate (6)."

Inside the almost frozen water sphere, an intense fire sparks, slowly overtaking the huge orb little by little before it erupts in a blazing glory. The mini explosion effectively melts away the partially frozen sphere, destroys Ino's Mizu Bunshin, and sends Ino flying towards the forest floor. She lands wobbly on feet before they give way, violently causing her to roll into some bushes, thankfully giving her some cover to formulate another plan of action.

The other two Iwa shinobis sense the chakra release of their brother, prompting them to rush back to his aid.

Ino's POV

Dammit, dammit, dammit! I can't believe he broke out of brilliantly planned idea; it was so wonderfully executed! Oh, well, no use crying over it now; I just need to come up with another one. Hmm, now what can I do now. As much as I hate to say it, my chakra capacity isn't all that big. I probably have enough for a couple more Mizu Bunshins and one more big...of course! Why didn't I think of this before! Ok, Ino, time to wipe the floor with this Iwa freak!

Normal POV

The Iwa nin scopes out his surroundings from the branch of a tall tree, hoping to once again confront the sly Konoha nin.

"Damn kunoichi! Just when I warm up, you run away like a frightened bird," he yells out hoping to provoke the sneaky Ino. "What is it; are you scared of my abilities, little girl? Have you realized that escaping may be the only, if bleak, hope you have!"

"HELL NO, IWA SCUMBAG!"

Ino comes running up the tree with two kunais ready and her arms in front of her in a defensive position.

"Good, you've made this even easier."

The Iwa nin races down to head her up, applying chakra to his legs to stick to the tree's side and to gain a boost of speed. When they meet down the middle, he attempts a straight punch, only to hit to hit nothing but air, as Ino sidesteps out of the way to swing her right hand for a quick slash. He catches it with his left hand, so Ino follows up with forward stab to his wide open stomach. Quickly thinking, he manhandles her right hand into attacking her left, which Ino senses, dropping the offending kunai. Unfortunately, the Iwa nin picks up the discarded weapon and tries to cut her with it. Ino blocks the attack with her other hand while pushing down towards the ground, hoping gain a better footing. He doesn't lose a step he chases right after her in an instant, both of them letting loose a barrage of fast kunai slashes. The sparks from their clashes were enough to alert the other two ninjas to their positions, quickly homing in on them.

Ino, sensing the incoming ground below them, forces a bit of chakra into her weapon and pushes him back enough to allow herself some breathing space to land safely and back flip away. The Iwa nin crouch-lands on the dirty ground, aggravation apparent on his face.

"You know, you're really starting to piss me off, Konoha garbage!"

"Is that so? Well I'm 'bout to piss you off some more."

A second Ino attacks from his blind side, grappling him down to the ground, while the first Ino runs up and does the same, both of them putting a strong lock on his body.

"So this is the extent of your plan, keeping me immobilized!"

"It's part of it; look up."

The two Inos on the ground make a motion towards a tree top nearly 15 meters away where a third Ino was perched on a branch, her eyes closed in deep concentration.

"We're about to finalize this plan, ending with your defeat. It's over, baka!"

"That's what you think, little bitch!"

The moment he says that, Ino feels a slight shift in the chakra flow around his eyes as he closes them. When he opens them back up, they've turned a purplish-red with one tomoe appearing in each of them. A reddish glow permeates from them; the off red pupils appearing slightly odd. Ino looks at him as if he had changed into something...inhuman.

"I-It's impossible. It's the-."

"Yes, be amazed, you dumb brat, as I counter as I counter whatever technique your other self does."

The real Ino, oblivious of the situation below her, proceeds to go through a long, intricate set of hand seals. After a few seconds, she finally finishes her technique as she crosses her arms to her chest.

"Suiton: Bakusui Shōha (7)"

A huge pulse of water gushes out of her mouth, the force of it tearing through all of the trees within its travel path. When it makes contact with the three figures below, it creates a huge crater in the ground. As the water subsides away from the area, Ino lets out a fierce war cry at the small victory she accomplished.

"And that's what you get for messing with one of the strongest kunoichis from Konohagakure, bitch!"

"If you were any louder, I am sure every ninja within a mile radius would have located you."

Ino slowly turns around to come face to face with the two other ninjas she had neglected. Her face twists in shock in fear as she realizes two mistakes she's made: 1) She totally forgot about the other two, focusing all her power on this one, and 2) After that last Suiton ninjutsu, she was down to roughly little chakra, with barely enough to travel and possibly perform one more Mizu Bunshin. Right now, this is when most ninjas would call this a fucked up situation.

Ino's POV

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! Why didn't I study that mist jutsu? That would be extremely helpful at this moment. Well, at least there are only two here; maybe I can control one and make him fight the other while I escape.

Normal POV

As the two Iwa nins ready themselves for the seemingly one sided fight, a third ninja appears right by their sides without a drop of water on him. Ino's facial expression goes from worried to downright shocked and furious.

'How is that possible? I hit him! I know I hit him! I, without a reasonable doubt, know I hit him!'

"Nice of you to join us, brother," the one on the right says.

"Yeah, from the sight we saw, it looked like you were down for the count," the other says.

"Well, it helps when you have eyes like mines," at that moment, his eyes become the same eerie purplish-red they were before.

Ino notices the change in eye color, and only one word comes to mind:

"Sharingan (8)"

"So, you do recognize this Kekkei Genkai do you? Then you realize how I managed to escape. You should know of its analytical properties and keen observation abilities. By scanning over your weak hold, I was able to easily break and your measly clones. I even managed to copy that powerful Suiton jutsu of yours. If you happen to last a bit longer, I'll show it to you."

"Enough talking, brother. We must destroy her and get rid of the evidence she has. No mistakes or screw ups."

Ino tenses up as the other two suddenly activate their own Sharingan with one tomoe in each eye. They suddenly crouch into a low position, preparing to leap out. Ino draws a kunai, hoping to somewhat defend herself.

"But this is completely ludicrous. It's impossible for all of you to have the Sharingan. Only the Uchiha clan of Konoha is able to use that Kekkei Genkai," Ino says, halfway hysterical.

"Don't worry; it won't matter much in about ten seconds anyhow. Brothers, time for Formation Tora (9).

With a simple gesture of the eyes, the two Iwa nins at the lead's sides rush forward towards Ino, hoping to overwhelm here. She quickly maneuvers out of the way by jumping backwards, but she doesn't notice the third ninja speeding towards her. He delivers a swift and powerful single-handed palm thrust to her chest, causing her to cough out a little blood. The attack doesn't stop there as he continues on with an almost endless assault of single-handed palm thrusts to her chest, stopping with a powerful punch, sending her flying. Ino spits out more of her blood as that final hit broke through part of her ribcage. As the pain circulates through her body while she sails through the air, the other two nins finish their attack with two accurately executed, spinning roundhouse kicks to Ino's jaw. Her eyes go blank as the strong kicks connect, knocking her the fuck the out. She plummets down to the forest floor as the three brothers meet up on a branch above her.

"No one has ever survived our Tora Shūgeki (10).

"Now all we need to do is search the remains and destroy any evidence."

As the three watched Ino's unmoving form drop towards the ground, their faces turn into shocked grimaces as she disappears in a flash. It seemed as if she literally vanished; their Sharingan eyes couldn't even trace the speed or direction of where she went.

"What the hell was that?"

"Did any of you see it?"

"No, none of it, but how?"

"Well, it's because your immature Sharingan eyes can't comprehend the speed at which I moved."

The three Iwa nins turn around, only to be livid and furious with the sight in front of them: a silver haired, purple eyed, dark skinned teen with a white hakata on and the girl they just demolished in his arms, bridal style.

It seems that you guys really worked this girl over," Kaishin says, giving the unconscious Ino a once over. "But, if I had been here earlier, it would've been you three all bloodied up, crying from mercy."

"You insolent boy! You think that your skills are a match for us?"

"I'm saying that for the time being and from now on until you pass from this world, you will never be able to defeat me."

The three men growl at the offending intruder; his very words were provoking an intense rage inside all of them. Kaishin simply smiles at how riled up the Iwa nins were getting.

"P-please," a soft voice whispers to Kaishin as Ino grabs his hakata, "d-don't try to f-fight th-," but Kaishin hushes her with a finger to her lips.

"Don't speak; you need to conserve your energy. You've taken quite a beaten, little girl."

"I-I'm not a l-little gir-," but Ino passes out before she could argue with him. The hand that was clasping his hakata was now fallen limply to the side, signaling her drift into dreamland.

Kaishin lets out a sigh as he places her down gently on the tree branch, "I told her not to overexert herself. Oh, well, she'll be up and at 'em soon enough," he makes a crossed hand seal with both of his index and ring fingers. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (11)."

A poof of smoke fills his immediate vicinity before there stood right next to him a second Kaishin identical to him in everyway. One of the Kaishins bend over and picks up the unconscious Ino, holding her in the same bridal position from before while the other pulls out the kunai that he caught along with Ino's body.

"Alright, just find some place safe to hide her at for the time being. I don't want these cowards to try anything with her."

The clone nodded, and with a simple hand seal, he disappeared in a swirl of leaves. The real one brought one kunai to chest level while pointing it at the Iwa nins.

"Now that the distracting female's gone, we can get down to business, namely me making you pray and hope for a merciless death by me," a warm smile present on Kaishin's face

All three black clothed shinobi sneer at the purple eyed teen for the ridiculously absurd comment.

"You make it sound like it'll be so easy for you to beat us. If you haven't noticed, not only is it three on one, but we also have our unbeatable Taijutsu technique," one the Iwa nins snarls, pissed off at Kaishin's nonchalant attitude.

"Please! If that three man combo you three put together was your best attack, I'd be surprised if you were to make me sweat," he says while effortlessly twirling the kunai around in his hand. "What was it called by the way? Was it the Bobo Shuūgeki (11)?

"WHAT," the three yell in total surprise and horror.

"You think you can just disrespect our prized Taijutsu technique by calling it something as vulgar as that?"

"Well…yeah."

The three brothers fill the surrounding area with killer intent as their Sharingan filled eyes glared at the silver haired young man. They glance at each other knowingly before the take off, charging at Kaishin with all the speed they could muster, while the young man in question merely smirks at their stupidity.

'I wish all my enemies were this easy to rile up. Then all my fights would've been shorter.
