For all that Masshiro was great when it came to sitting down and sculpting his plan and strategies, could see moves ahead when all the pieces were in front of him, he wasn't always the best in terms of in the moment decision making. It held him back for being a great leader in that respect, and his demeanor shifts in combat situations worked against this idea of trying to strategize in the moment. There was no other way to say it than that it was hard to plan things when you were shifting to a mindset of brutalizing an opponent, and with each attack he was sliding into that dangerous mindset.
His initial thought of using the mist and reacting went out the window immediately for example, and though he had bloodlust in his eyes the moment he dashed out towards the fight, he was clearly not thinking things through. A great weapon to aim at an opponent in a fight, and a great teammate to have as a resource before one, but on his own he was certainly reckless. The mist around him and the lightning that followed was causing him issues that he hadn't even considered, and what he thought was just a jolt, was turning into a problem even after the lightning strike. His muscles were still twitching, his left thigh tightening, and for a brief moment it felt as if there was a disconnect between his muscles and his brain telling them to move. It wasn't just a matter of pain, as even the after effects were still gripping him and squeezing.
The heavy motion of his swing met nothing solid to his frustration, but he planted his foot to move forward and give chase, trying to use his swinging momentum to keep moving, just as a kunai came whizzing towards him. It was lucky it was aimed towards him and not at him as he was starting to see red more with every swing. For all he assumed himself lucky in that brief moment, it certainly didn't last long. With both hands gripping tight on his weapons, he couldn't raise his hands and drop his weapons fast enough given the proximity of the kunai, so all he could manage was trying to push forward.
With all the strength he could force into his muscles he tried to dive, and at best his body twisted awkwardly forward, still not fully recovering from the swing yet balance wise. His body flopped forward in what otherwise would have been funny if not for the explosion, jumping just enough to at least not get the direct hit to the his body, but completely blowing off the back side and left sleeve of his disguise as well as the left leg of his pants. His mesh armor was now exposed, and by nothing but sheer luck, he still had all his hair. Making a groaning noise as he turned trying to figure out why his water clone hadn't rushed in to help, it dawned on him that it was destroyed earlier with the lightning strike, and his eyes narrowed back forward. He could feel the burns, thankfully not serious, but painful all the same, and was still feeling the now dissipating effects from the shock to his nervous system, and it further turned the dial in his mind up a notch.
He was still in proximity close enough to the shinobi he had attacked earlier to have sight of him in the mist, as he let go of his axes momentarily and pushed up to his knees, making a quick handseal with a big obvious motion that would be hard to miss. Within seconds, unless they were blind or impressively genjutsu resilient, would lose all track of Masshiro in the mist as a large tree appeared around them, binding them in place. For all he wanted to rest his chakra use, he couldn't simply let them lightning strike him a second time. With the assumption they would stay held for long enough to get up, he turned his head towards the location of where the kunai had come from earlier and grabbed his axes,. Pushing away as he tried keeping track up them, he jumped, painfully, to his feet and rushed in towards the one he had just casted his genjutsu on. Assuming it worked, he would keep running, attempt to use them as a human shield to stand between him and the kunai throwing shinobi, then put both axes to their throat in a clear and obvious threatening motion.
"You'll come closer and drop your weapons and surrender or this guy loses his head, and I do mean that literally."

The user first disappears from plain sight in a mist-like fashion in order to approach the target without being detected. Once close enough, the target will then be completely robbed of their mobility as they see the mirage of a fast-growing tree coiling itself around them. Given that the subject remains conscious, this technique proves extremely efficient for information-gathering. Once the target is immobile, the user can then attack the enemy, usually after seemingly emerging from the trunk of the tree.
