Kuro instantly realized this situation he had just put himself in was trouble. Not only would the whip not make it back in time for a counter-attack as he suspected his opponent would make, but the whips weight would turn Kuro with it. Of course, he could stop the whip's movement with a simple wrist flick, but he'd rather keep Nadezhda guessing at his motives...

At once, Kuro had seen the movement of the man's body, and judged some strike was going to be performed. By quickly using the Shunpo, he was able to barely avoid contact with the blades, by kicking his own feet out from under him at an impressive speed, causing himself to fall on the ground infront of Nadezhda, with his two blades above Kuro's head.

Rocking backwards for a split, second immediatly after, only to propel forward with a kick aimed for the man's stomach from Kuro's sitting position. If the kick hit's, Kuro would use the resisting force from the man's own weight to put himself in a sort of back roll and allow him to get back up on his feet. This was done, at a guess seeing as the light currently had Kuro blinded. He was going back what he previously saw, as to where to put the kick.
