We've had a whiff of activity again.

I had a whiff of sexual arousal when I read the posts.

Very nice.

Seijo watched as Yudai erupted suddenly and rushed towards one of the men, but she didn't feel a need to go help him to be precise. She simply looked around at the guys that were laying around trying their best to breathe. One of them was crawling away, holding onto his shoulder. Strange.. Seijo walked closer and could actually hear the man talking to his shoulder. What the fu- HEY! “HEY! Fool.. I was gonna let you live but now..” her voice bouldered as she approached quickly, and the man started speaking louder and quicker. “Th-they're here! Seijo Tametomo and her crew, they're trying to enter the vault! Send help! Send he- UAGHGHHH!” Seijo had stabbed him in the neck with a kunai, and look at the guys' neck. There was a walkie talkie there.. probably that meant this guy was the appointed squad leader then. Grinning to herself, clueless to the violence erupting behind her at this point, she would simply bend over and grab the walkie talkie.

“Cancel that order. Seijo Tametomo has the situation under control.” she would say, answering the static. As soon as she finished her sentence the line went dead, indicating that the radio frequence was now cut off from the Amegakure airwaves. The team now faced a problem however. Reinforcements would soon arrive, and contrary to the previous day, they did not have an army to back them up this time. “Anzai! Go hold the door, use it like a chokepoint. Nori, Yudai, hurry the fuck up. Once that door is open grab the gunbai and the sword, and anything else that looks important and then get the fuck out.”

Meanwhile, in the Amegakure border outpost

@l0ck0n

“WHOOOOOOP! WHOOOOOOOOP!” The slow whoop alarm of the base was going off, flashing red lights in almost every room and hallway. It was a clear indicator that something was going on and that there'd be a callout soon. Everyone stopped what they were doing and got to their room to gear up, just in the case they were expected to go out. “Calling out Setsuko Hyuga, calling out Setsuko Hyuga. Organise a team and get ready at Hangar 01.” The message repeated a few times, giving Setsuko the chance to get out of the glass aquarium, and gather her own squad. The choice on who to bring was hers, and the large number of shinobi present allowed her to pick pretty much any size she wanted. Within reason, ofcourse. The VTOL couldn't be loaded too heavy or else it'd be problematic to take off.

Once Setsuko was at the hangar with her squad, she'd be escorted to the readied VTOL and given a small briefing by a secretary, who walked them to the VTOL, and then left the area again. It was up to Setsuko to brief her team herself, but that provided easy enough. Once everyone was loaded, the green light inside the transport area went off and the doors closed, before the pilot lifted off. Over the microphone he spoke to Setsuko and her team. “ETA is 10 minutes. Hang back and relax, we'll come in hot so use the time you have now to gather your senses. Osaji out.”

The VTOL traveled rapidly, and while these small distances did not really require a VTOL, it was still more easy for the shinobi in these cases. As the VTOL appeared over Amegakure, there were even a few people on the ground looking in confusion - VTOL's like these were almost never seen due to their specialist nature. They were reserved for the special forces of the Confederation, so.. what was it doing here? Once they arrived at the Kohonjenpou warehouses the VTOL would hover overhead, allowing Setsuko and her team to drop in on top of the warehouse to figure out their approach. The drop wasn't that large, five meters at least, and as soon as everyone had dropped off the pilot turned the VTOL and headed off again. While the VTOL's were armored they would never stand up to chakra based attacks or even simple ninjutsu.

Inside the warehouse

Once the vault door would have been blown up by Nori, another problem showed it's ugly face. Behind the vault door had been another set of doors. Not quite as thick or strong, but taking them down manually would take some time. Seijo had come over to Nori and Yudai, looking at the door. As soon as she noticed that this would take longer than a few seconds she looked over to Anzai. “Hey, Anzai, come over here. I just heard the VTOL arriving. We'll hold off in this area, so we don't get caught out in the open with nowhere to maneuver. Nori, Yudai, you two get behind me and Anzai. You support us where ever you can. We kill them, I'll blast open that lock, and then we get out. This is taking longer than it should already.”

Setsuko had opened with a vacuum palm. It was.. an interesting opening? To be expected from her that she'd go for ninjutsu rather than the gentle fist - but they hadn't made rules about it so.. all was fair in this fight. He twisted his body, turning his right shoulder back as he stepped away to the left, keeping his eyes on Setsuko at all times. She'd gone for a distraction maneuver as well - a smart move but it was pretty obvious given her immediate sprint towards him. If she expected him to be caught by surprise by a simply trick like this, she was underestimating him. It wasn't without reason that the Bastard was one of the better gentle fist users of the clan. “Tsk. I was calling you a baka only for fun, but now you're really becoming a baka..” he said mockingly as she approached. With his byakugan he caught the forming of chakra in her left hand and quickly devised a plan.

He stepped forwards swiftly, meeting Setsuko in the middle. He moved his left arm against her left, smashing it aside. Now, for the spectators, the raw chakra was definetely visible as two gentle fist users clashed. Higoho then noticed her right arm, and thinking quickly, tensed up his body preparing for the impact. It was a viable choice for him, he was used to sparring and taking a hit like this would be 'easy'. That didn't mean it wouldn't hurt but he'd definitely not be incapacitated. He leaned into the strike as it was about to land to give some counter pressure, and as soon as her hit landed, he would move his left hand to grab onto her right hand, holding it in place on his chest.

His face tensed up from the pain, but a shit-eating grin managed to shine through the tensing up of his face. “Now..” he'd say as he swiftly pulled back his free right hand and sent it forwards towards her chest. This time he made sure to use chakra, after all, she'd decided she wanted to test him. The time she had to react with her own free hand was small, but it was a possibility. To counter that, if she had managed to block it, he would simply release her hand that he was holding and use it to deliver the same chakra strike to her chest. Except, where she had been 'merciful' in her attack, he would be less so, molding enough chakra to possibly disable her gentle fist right away. And then, he'd swiftly strike with his other hand again, aiming at her shoulder. The strike would be just as hard as the other strike, not strong enough to dislocate her shoulder obviously, but putting the real power in the chakra. “That's why you don't stand around after you attack someone.”

@Dawnscroll yes slice of life n all that, we haven't really got to that part yet as we're just setting everything off but eventually I hope we can get to some more relaxed stuff.

As the squad readied up, Seijo put her left arm on her right shoulder, swinging it around a bit to loosen up. Yudai slowly descended into the ground and not too soon after the sounds of a body hitting the floor could be heard. The kill had been silent - evident from the lack of screams or even muffled sounds. A good kill on Yudai's part. “Go.” she said, to Nori and Anzai. Anzai dashed through the door, swinging it open wildly and surely alerting them to their positions now. It wasn't a mistake, as detection was evident at this point. Not even that, it was.. required. Seijo wanted to fight these bastards, and kill them.

As Anzai rushed in Seijo grabbed Nori's collar tightly and swung him forwards, sending him into the warehouse. “GO!” she'd yell as she stepped past Nori again and started running into the middle of the warehouse. Unlike Anzai, who fought the opponents one by one, she was going to take down all her targets at once. A remarkable feat for any shinobi at any rate, but extremely possible for Seijo, who used area of attack jutsu. As she ran towards the center, she formed some rapid seals before moving her hand to her mouth, touching it with the back of her hand. She inhaled..

and exhaled. Spores and fungi started to come from her mouth, seemingly coming from her body it seemed like, and spread like a blanket in the air towards the shinobi. While she did so, she used her momentum to stand on one leg and pivot around towards the left, passing all the shinobi who were rushing to attack her. The spores and fungi reached towards the shinobi, grasping at them almost as if they had claws.

Before they knew what was going on, three of them were coughing wildly and the fourth was on the flour, holding his throat and being unable to breathe or even make any sound at all as the spores entered his throat and nose and all easily accessible holes in the body, causing a strong burning sensation and the attachment of spores. Slowly but surely the spores would grow, and cover the entire nasal and oral cavities, leaving the victims without breath. Especially in these quantities, it was merely a question of time.

Seijo thought nothing more of it and stood up straight again, straightening her clothes a bit as the three other shinobi that weren't on the ground thrashing like fish on land fell down. She looked over towards the vault door where Yudai was supposed to be with Nori, taking care of the three shinobi and planting the Senju charge. “Hey, hurry up, we don't have all day.” she said to seemingly nobody, causing the three shinobi to panic and look around for whoever she was speaking to, readying their kunai for anyone to appear suddenly. Up, right, left, they were looking everywhere but one place. “Sh-she's just trying to scare us!” one of them said, while the others walked back and collided with the vault door, having their backs pressing against it. “B-baka! She's already scary enough just to be here, she doesn't have to scare us!”

Higoho wasn't impressed with the fact that she blocked the strike at all, that was standard Gentle Fist stuff, but the way she did it was.. amateurish at best. She put herself completely out of position and now had to lean in to strike at him, leading to her head being exposed as the left hand she had pulled back would be nowhere near it. Not close enough to ward off an attack with the Gentle Fist in any case. Higoho decided not to step back to defend against her strike against his shoulder, but instead stepped forwards, into her strike. His right hand shot forwards and collided with her arm, blocking the strike and sending her hand far away enough to not cause any serious harm to his shoulder. As his hand touched her arm, a small bit of chakra surged out from both his and her hand, a sight common when two gentle fist users collided. It wasn't massive, nor was it harmful, and it was definitely not quite visible to the naked eye of those spectating the fight outside the cage, but to the two of the Hyuga it was definitely visible. He did feel a small sting of small amounts of chakra entering his shoulder, but it wasn't anything serious, and it was a risk he took knowing he'd get hit.

But now he was even closer to Setsuko, forcing her to fight at a very close range or taking a step back - both of which would ultimately be against her favor. His right hand got pulled back quickly and was ready to attack or defend at a moments notice. Meanwhile he sent his left palm forwards, striking towards her right shoulder as that was the one closest to his left side. Unknown to Setsuko was that this was a strike meant to distract her. His right hand now also came forwards, heading towards her chest, dead center, which would've been exposed due to leaning into her strike. If his plan worked, she wouldn't be close enough with her hand that attacked yet to ward it off, and the other hand was occupied with his other strike.

In the case that she'd be hit on her chest, he would not use any chakra. It would definetely seem like it to Setsuko, given her lack of experience with the Byakugan meaning she wouldn't be able to see that he didn't use chakra. That way, she would surely be under the impression she was struck with a Juken strike until she inspected the damage. At the last moment he'd stopped molding chakra in that area, and simply struck her with a bare palm. The strike was painful, sure, and it would be enough to send her back a few steps, but it wasn't going to be a gentle fist strike, and definitely not cause severe internal damage. Then, Higoho would step back as well and take a gentle fist stance, looking at Setsuko with daring eyes. “Baaaka..” The word came out mockingly, mocking her for her lack of aptitude with the gentle fist, and was a testament that he'd purposefully not harmed her with the gentle fist attack, knowing that she would never be able to take it. “I won't be so kind next time.” he'd say to her, stepping slightly to the side, again circling her. He waited for her to take position again and would let her make the first move.

Higoho undid his Konohagakure headband as he stood at the center of the box, looking slightly down as he put it back on. He placed the headband in such a way that his hair wouldn't come into his eyes, or his face in general. As he finished that he looked up at Setsuko, face serious as ever. “No. I just want to train. Those settings would be too complicated for a simple training.” As Setsuko entered a loud pshhhh.. sound could be heard behind her. The glass door slid to the side, closing the box off.

“So get ready.” Higoho said to her as he slid his back foot backwards, landing in a perfect gentle fist stance. There wasn't much space between Higoho and Setsuko, though there was plenty of space in the box to maneuver around a little bit. That said, gentle fist was an extremely close combat style, so it'd be strange if Setsuko started running. “Byakugan!” Higoho shouted suddenly, the veins near and in his eyes tensing up. He was expecting Setsuko to get ready at the same time, and stepped to the left slowly, like a vulture circling it's prey. It was common for gentle fist practitioners to start a fight like this, since the gentle fist style was not as explosive as other styles. Never the less it was a sight to behold when things did get interesting, as in most cases raw chakra could be seen erupting from strikes as they went back and forth with attacks and blocks.

By now a small amount of shinobi had stopped working to take a look, after all, two Hyuga fighting it out in public was a rare sight for many of them given that most of the time they fought inside the clan compound. Higoho paid no mind however, as he was a little used to it by now. He stepped slowly and surely until the time to strike had arrived. He stepped forwards rapidly, sprinting towards Setsuko and closing the very little distance that was between them.

His right palm was sent forwards, in an opening blow on the right side of Setsuko's body. It was clear the attack would never hit but there had to be someone that opened the fight and god forbid that Setsuko strike the first blow. That'd be laughable at best. Even someone who had little practice in the Byakugan and the Gentle Fist style would be able to block the strike, that much was sure. While he sent his right palm forwards, his left hand remained near his body to defend against the inevitable strike Setsuko would send out. That was the style of the gentle fist - a ping-pong of attacks and blocks until someone landed a hit. Once a hit was landed, usually the two shinobi would back off to assess the damages - as most Hyuga knew, the gentle fist style was contact as well as non-contact. Even the person that landed the hit could be dangerously hurt by narrow misses by the other. However, for now, Higoho just had to see if Setsuko had it in her to block the strike and retaliate.

Congratulations on reaching arc 2. You've outlived my previous iteration of this RP.

Not entirely true as there were 2 threads for that RP and one of them was pretty large. But we've outlived the revival of that RP, so hey, good job people.

Naruto: True Peace. [ALWAYS ACCEPTING] [Cool guys club inside]

@Akai no Senshi you were actually complimented in the skype group chat on your writing so congratulations.

You don't suck. We'll see how you hold up.

I accept him. The history is good but I just like to scrutinize and make fun of everything.

I want to note that..

given the history of the Uchiha clan (destroying the world, blabla) they're kinda disliked by many people. That means that the general populace of any given city won't like them as much. See them as Naruto's immigrants (nobody really hates them to the point of murdering them (not more people than before) but generally they're disliked). Just wanted to note that.

Also you're welcome to join the Skype group. If you have it, you can add me under the name ''Vurige_Vos''.

Higoho was rudely interupted by this.. weird kid that had been sitting close to where Kaori and Higoho were standing. He spouted some nonsense, most likely to rile up Higoho. Higoho clenched his fists together - clearly showing that the annoying guys' plan was working. “Tsk..” Higoho let some air slip out past his teeth, as he looked at the guy. He was clearly unimpressed and seemed more bothered by the fact that someone was annoying him than the actual words that were spoken. “Who are you again?” Higoho then said after a moment of silence after Tetsuba had finished his ranting. The comment, though genuine, was also a slight, an insult in the eyes of anyone that felt themselves to be worthy of acknowledgement. Higoho knew this - he was approached like this many times by head branch members, and knew the weight these words could carry.

“As for Kaori.. she carries a name. Uchiha.. you haven't even offered me your family name, so I could atleast know whose honor I was stepping on. If you want to fight me, atleast have the decency to tell me your name, runt.” he then said, bitingly and his words filled with venom. Higoho straightened his fists into flat hands by now, calming himself down slightly, and also preparing himself in case the boy tried to show off for Kaori. You see, while Higoho could pack a punch as he'd shown Tatsuya earlier that day, this kid was much more aggressive than Tatsuya..

And that meant if he tried anything remarkably stupid, that Higoho wouldn't hold back in putting the kid down where he belonged. “Now, I suggest you approach me another time if you're serious about fighting me. Maybe approach me in a more respectable way, and tell me your family name so I can disgrace you with a shred of decency. Because I'm not impressed with you right now, and I'm sure that the girl you're trying to impress isn't either.” He would inch closer to the boy and lean in with his face, getting close to Tetsuba's face as he did so. His eyebrows were furrowed inwards and he looked visibly angry at this point, or atleast, not to the point of becoming red. “Unless you wanna throw down, right here, right now, in the middle of the crowd, shithead. I'll kick your ass to the curb in front of everyone.”

He left it at that, leaning back again and leaving the row of seats. As he did, he reached the end and then turned around, facing Kaori. “I'll ask Genji Hyuga, the clan leader, if I can invite you over for a match. No promises. But I accept your challenge, for whatever it's worth.” While the essence of the words he spoke could be perceived as friendly, the way he said the words definitely made it sound more like he was not being friendly at all. Before leaving he looked at Tetsuba one more time but didn't bother giving him the pleasure of responding to whatever he had to say.

Armed Forces outpost

The very next day Higoho had arrived at the outpost he was now assigned to. Guess he wasn't returning home to Konoha anytime soon now that he was drafted into Yakoul's control. After a small tour of the premises, Higoho decided to retire to his room for a bit. The room was rather hightech, which was a nice change from the tatami-mat beds that he slept on in the Hyuga estate. For a while he simply hung around, laying in bed reading the latest issue of Naruto and Sasuke - Stories Untold. It wasn't a productive past-time but it was whatever at this point, since there wasn't much to do. But as soon as he finished that - for the second time - he finally decided he was fed up with this crap. “Fucking Yakoul.. dragging me out here into god fucking knows where.” He threw the comic book, no, excuse me.. manga onto his bed end and got up, taking off his somewhat dirty wifebeater and grabbing an all black shirt out of the wardrobe.

After throwing that on swiftly, he walked out of the room and looked left and right into the hallway. “And for all this money they can't mobilize some god forsaken reinforcements when we get attacked.” he mumbled before heading down right side into the hallway. He was looking for a specific someone, Setsuko to be precise. After looking at the sparkling new nameplates on some of the rooms, he finally found hers. It wasn't too far off of his room. He knocked twice on the door before opening it. “Yo, baka.” he opened, friendly as always. “I'm bored shitless here and I want to practice. Seeing as there's no other Hyuga around here, you'll have to suffice. Maybe you can open those Byakugan of yours for the first time in a year.” he said, leaning on the doorframe with one arm while the other hung loosely at his side.

“Unless you're actually doing something.” he said, laughing to himself. As if she was doing something. “Great, thanks. I'll wait at the practice fields.” His answer came without waiting for her to as much as say a word - he simply guessed she'd agree and all in all his leading personality would probably make it so she wouldn't dare deny.. unless she was strong enough to withstand it now.

He walked over to the training fields, passing by lots of shinobi. As he approached the training yard, he noticed large glass 'cages'. It was almost like large aquariums for humans to fight in. Some of them were occupied by shinobi that were duking it out, and there was one which was being used to test a new weapon of sorts. All of these seemed to be fighting because they had to - regular tests, or testing new tactics with a squad. It seemed Higoho was the only one that was going in for fun. The fact that they were glass was probably to allow spectators. In some of the cages, most notably that of the weapon testing one, there were quite a few spectators watching them. That only added to the spectacle for Higoho, however.

Approaching one of these glass aquariums, he stepped inside and took a quick look around. It seemed they were capable of taking on specific environments too, but that'd be unnecessary now. Higoho was just looking for a fight and not a specific scenario. He would wait there for Setsuko, in case she did decide to follow him. Of that fact, however, he wasn't sure entirely.
