Hyuuga Ezuri
Once his water clones were destroyed Ezuri came out of hiding, slowly and silent. From behind Nimatsu doing his best not to get noticed. With few quick hand signs he conjured up another water clone. He himself went around the right side of the tree, examining it from top till bottom while his water clones went around the left side. "sensei," his water clone started talking "how did you think that went?" The clone was supposed to buy him time. "actually is the real task to cut this tree?" Don't blow it clone "I mean, its far too big too cut down with just taijutsu" the byakugan did not help Ezuri by uncovering what was up with the tree, it seemed like just a normal big oak. He dispersed his clone and showed himself "Kensuke Nimatsu-sensei, I take you on!" and with that he took on the traditional Gentle Fist fighting stance.
