bleed it out

Teams had been coordinated and instructions given so now all that remained was to get to the action which, a bit surprisingly, sounded like they were going to be pulling up the rear and showing up after the support squad. It was a confusing tactic in the Nohime's eyes but those in charge must have thought it through well enough to make such a decision so there'd be no complaints from the chunin. Besides, given the distance there was a good chance he'd be winded by the time they arrived if they booked it and Ouritsu would be no help to anyone if he had to stop and catch his breath first.

Even though the group was still a good distance away the chunin could feel something welling up in the pit of his stomach. Anticipation, perhaps? Nervousness? Hard to tell really but considering this was his first major action in quite some time he had nearly forgotten all the feelings that came with going into battle, and for the village to assemble a team as stacked as this one meant that the threat was indeed severe. No matter, Ouritsu had earned the right to be here with his skill and accomplishments and would rely on his training and those around him to get through whatever the team was about to step into. He had techniques for support as well as his family's claim to fame which the chunin was always eager to utilize.

Oh hell girl...Tetsou...ya'll watch it too ya hear? ""

Himari would sigh as she could see that Taki was intending to look after Tetsou, though she had a feeling it might be the other way around. Still, she'd trust both of them to watch each other's backs out there as they would in any case. It was what their family was about. With a smirk, she'd return her attention back to the task at hand, and from the sound of it, it appeared that they would likely have to be the first ones in. In honesty, it was a bit of a shock for support to be the ones to move ahead of the assault team, but considering what was likely being planned, she'd have to trust the leadership on this one.

Himari was a shinobi....one of Iwagakure's shinobi. She had a role and she intended to fulfill it to the best of her abilities. Which were damn good...

Push it to the Limit

With the signal from Isamu for them to advance, she'd watch as some would begin to move in with a simple body flicker, but she decided to keep it to a relative quick space as she increased her run by moving forward into a run. She had to keep as much stamina as she could for the fight, and couldn't afford to waste any of it. Especially with what she could smell and hear ahead of her. She was worried...but she had to push it out of her mind for the moment because any stray thoughts besides that of the fight could cost her.

As she drew closer to the scene, she'd see the puppets on the attack and begin to move in, her body moving low to the ground as she charged. It wouldn't be as easy as knocking over an regular person, considering the target wasn't alive, but if she could get in a strong enough hit, she imagined the things would tumble over all the same. She just had to find the weak points. Joints, neck, head, chest.

Noting the blazing blur that was rocking ahead of many of them, Himari would then slide her hand into her pouch, drawing out a kunai and a single explosive tag. As she attached the tag upon the end of the dagger, she'd hold the handle tight against her chest before throwing it into one of the mechanical puppets.

-S.A Used-
Show-Stopper
Himari begun her career as an underdog, underestimated by many of her opponents within the ring due to her size. Yet, in spite of this, she would always come up with a way to win in the end, despite being at the disadvantage. This has much to do with her reflexes, capable of moving around her targets attempts and finding the openings she needs to take them down. More often than not, this serves as her means of protection in it being difficult to hit a someone that you can't accurately engage against. Though it operates on her instincts, it can be unreliable in some situations. Especially if Himari has not been able to figure out the exact anatomy of her opponent.

Heart of a Champion
During her run within the OWA, Himari would train constantly to build up her strength and stamina. She would need both in order to complete the various techniques that were involved in her style of wrestling. As such, strength training was key in her mind as she came up with an arrangement in order to continue to build upon those foundations taught to her. While she is indeed smaller than most of the people she encounters, her size does no more than give her the appearance of being less powerful than she is. Her ability to sustain stronger grapples upon her opponents is increase through this advantage, as well as the impact of her physical attacks.

Legacy of a Champion
Okada Riku was known throughout the world for her speed and agility when she was in the ring. Such is reflected upon her continue run until her retirement. This trait has been passed down by to her daughter as Himari has displayed incredible speed. This has only increased over the years, alongside her training with both her mother and other shinobi. She can move swiftly across the field with little issue, using her agile footwork to get in close on a target before they can even realize it. Excelling at this, she focuses on being evasive with this ability as well, allowing for her to be just as proactive in getting in, as well not getting hit in the process.

Keen Eye
After leaving the life of a performer, Himari was given the opportunity to help development the next generation of wrestlers for the OWA. This required that she further study the methods and means in which to help others increase their potential safely without causing injury to themselves. In doing this, she learned about the human body, as well as points upon which one could take advantage of a target and weaken them. While this was a skill she had learned through her career, she further used this knowledge to be more accurate of calculating strategies when dealing with opposition, as well as certain situations that required a keen insight into the anatomy of an individual. This insight also allows for Himari to properly control her own chakra with knowledge of her own limited and accessible supply.

Morihito would fall in behind his kin and he would find out that they are going to take a slower pace so that everyone could get themselves prepared and to tip top performance levels to fight these constructs. It was not ideal but morihito understood the call. Tsucho would motion to him and tell him to tell the others to maintain this pace. "of course we will stay at this pace”. He would turn to the unit and say "Our leader is going to talk to the support but we are going to maintain this pace. So prepare for battle in this time.” They would start leaving for the city taking a slower pace then the support team. The support team were going to set up a hospital and check in on the town which was probably a good thing to do. They would try to keep a distance behind them but not too far. Morihito would go up to his cousin "are you ready for this fight? You know I won’t let anything happen to you or the team. I will try to block as much as I can. You know the family scares me more than anything this construct can do?” He would chuckle a little then continue "either way know I got back and if you want me to get you or anyone I can retreat with them without them having much say.”

Okada Tetsuo

He couldn't help but send a side-eyed glare at Taki as she wrapped her arm over his shoulder, "I've been a shinobi a lot longer than you, you remember that right? Getcha meaty paws off me ya gorilla" he snarked at her, no real heat in his words but enough for him to save face as he crawled out from the muscular limb and swatted at the taller Okada.

Nodding at Himari as she started to head off under the instructions of her team leader, Tetsuo was silent as their group moved out at a reasonable pace, unlike the support team's full speed. While ideally they would be there first, he knew that there was a need to conserve energy before they got into the fight, since they would be the ones hitting back against the enemies the hardest. He could only hope that the other team would be able to hold out long enough for them to arrive as reinforcements.

Tetsuo found himself moving smoothly down the route, even though his stride had changed since his injuries the physical therapy had brought him back up to his expected standard and that meant that he wasn't having difficulties with the run. It would be a longer haul than he might be used to since he was cleared for duty, but he didn't believe it would cause any issues.

While not flaunted, Tetsuo has a genius level intellect and can be counted amongst the ranks of prodigy shinobi currently alive. Tetsuo's memory is excellent and he can recall events and information with rich details. and his mind works at an incredible speed, able to do calculations even during the stress of combat. His memory is nearly flawless, and he is quickly able to determine weaknesses in his foes. He is not one to show off, nor point out his own intelligence, rather allowing others to see it or not of their own accord. He doesn't have time for such nonsense after all.

"A considered and Reactive approach. Understood. I'll prepare to depart immediately, sir."

Souma fished a few paper tags from beneath her armor as she heard the plan for advancing, handing Morihito, Tsusho, and Taki tags with a medical seal stamped onto each. "Carry there. A little chakra will release the jutsu stored within and allow for a one time reparation effect. It is the only healing I can offer while not present. Anything serious, please find or send for me so it can be tended to. For now, though..." Souma bowed, tension showing as the young woman turned to leave her clanmates and beloved, moving to step up with Isamu and the rest of the advancing Reserve team. A gentle modulation of her chakra, fine tuned to perfection, put her body in a state for sustained exertion- and then they were off, pushing to get on scene for recon and triage ASAP, the heavily Armored medic staying near the front of the formation as best she could, considering the front was a rocket powered spearhead!

A loser like you ain't got no guts!


Taki would be told that she'd be given time to gather the energy that she needed if that was necessary the girl would look towards the team leader. "Thanks Boss man! Sorry to hold you down, but I won't letcha down." she'd say looking towards her gorilla companions. As Aki gathered chakra on her behalf, Fudo would follow along.

"I can also assist as another hand if need be." he would state to Tsusho as they would make their trek to where they needed to go. Taki needed to focus on the task at hand, as Aki began to gather chakra and the gorilla would walk back towards Taki.

"Once you've gathered what you needed, you'll want to fall back, I can assist you with whatever you need Aki needs to remain back at the compound." Fudo would take a look at everyone out in the area in front of them. "This isn't the place for him at the moment, with warriors like these it isn't safe." Taki would nod.

"Good Call." She'd say as she kept walking along with the others towards whatever it was they were facing. She was initially jovial but as they neared their objective and before they were separated she would give Souma one last look steeling her resolve and then carrying on going forward.



MOVEMENT TECHNIQUES:

OFFENSIVE TECHNIQUES:

NAME: Senpō: Ryōsei no Jutsu (仙法・両生の術; Sage Art: Amphibian Technique) [2 rotations] [+15 Senjutsu Chakra Stored]
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Senjutsu
ELEMENT: --
DESCRIPTION:
Summoning one or more of their sage animals, these animals can then fuse themselves to the user's body and remain still, allowing them to gather natural chakra for the user whilst moving and fighting. This technique is invaluable to Sennin, however the gathering rate of Natural chakra is slightly reduced as compared to gathering by oneself. This means regaining Natural chakra takes one turn longer than it normally would, however the added benefit of movement whilst doing do definitely makes this technique worth the wait.

SUMMARY

SA's:

House of Fire

During Taki's training she learns that she has a significant amount of energy and after graduating to the rank of genin she began to learn how to properly make use of them under the tutelage of Midori Chizawa. As a result the girl is now able to perform a bevy of powerful techniques for longer periods of time without tiring as quickly as others.

[Heavyweight: Super Strength SA]

With the rigorous training that Taki's now able to throw down with the best of them boasting monstrous strength fitting for her professional wrestling background, having combined that with the training she performed at the academy has now made her able to performs ridiculous feats such as being able to crush stones in her grip causing concussions and snap bones with her powerful strikes and holds. Taki has also increased the amount of weight she is able to lift by a massive margin in a way that makes her an even more fearsome taijutsu practitioner than before.

[Wrestling Genius]

As a result of her training, and advancements as a genin. Taki's grappling ability has increased even further making her wrestling based techniques far more difficult to deal with and escape from. As a result, her slams, holds, submissions and suplex's are far more damaging and harder to escape from then that of a genin who is not trained in these particular abilities.

[Sage Mode]


✤ | Abilities (Imperfect Enhancement)
✤ Gorilla Grip [Grip Strength]

When transforming into Sage Mode Taki's body and overall Taijutsu prowess increase exponentially most notably her grip strength allowing her to take hold of someone with a painful amount of power amplifying her already proficient ability to grapple with an opponent making it significantly harder to be broken out of as well a deal a considerable amount of damage.

✤ | Abilities (Imperfect Enhancement)
✤ Gorilla Press [Natural Taijutsu]

When transforming into Sage Mode Taki's body Taki is able to use nature energy to harness her powers in order to make her more physically imposing than normal adding to her natural affinities with Taijutsu allowing her move faster and hit harder heavy items thus adding a good amount of power and heft to her attacks allowing her to snap bones with much less effort and outpace a good majority of her enemies with her monstrous charge.

✤ | Abilities (Imperfect Enhancement)
✤ The Immovable Force [Durability]

Due to the coarse strength of a gorilla's skin Taki is able to withstand a good amount of extra punishment allowing her to be able to withstand blows from most enemies that most shinobi wouldn't be able to normally withstand. As such blows from strong fighters are reduced by a considerable amount and when struck feel like colliding with a considerably immovable force.

Moriko was happy with the group's attitude. Moving faster was better after all! She couldn't really emphasize that herself, but it was gonna work out fine if she had anything to say on the matter. Which she didn't actually cause using Bunraku on the move was just really really annoying if she was being completely honest. Maybe that was something to work on? Probably a good idea. That was a later idea though, Momo had a dangerous and super cool mission to undertake with a lot of neat people. Her excitement heating up to a point that if Isamu was truly paying attention he would have noticed an ever so slight shift in warmth from the cloak and scarf Ha.

Paying close attention to the cloaked girl with them Moriko got the impression she would also get along with her given her seemingly speed-centric capabilities. The girl had never really left her school girl obsession with faster shinobi even after transformation and it had influenced her choice of weapon most specifically. So all of her team's members were truly falling into the category of appreciated substitutes for Sumire when Sumi was busy with other things. Not that Sumi was ever too busy for a warm hug, but she wasn't here right now to help fight off invaders!
