Okingshi's shuriken hit Asahi's false arms as he fell toward the genin with his scythe in front, coming down for the attack. He wasn't prepared for what came next, a shining bright light produced from his opponents real hands. Such a burst of light exploded through the lenses of his eyes, burning into both his retinas. He was blinded and quite severely too. However he kept his trajectory, flying down at Asahi. He felt no resistance as he landed on the ground, it seemed to the blinded genin that his opponent had successfully dodged the scythe's blade.

Okingshi had little time to react... to decide what to do next. As his mind quickly mused on possible actions, Okingshi felt the real sensation of a blade slashing across his side. "Takehoushi: Sansan [Mushroom Spore: Scattering]!!!!" A puff of spores exploded from his body toward Asahi, a natural reaction his body produced whenever it was injured. Following the spores, Okingshi subsequently lashed out, blindly swinging his weapon at the direction of the painful cut. It was reactive, a desperate attempt to injure his opponent. After the initial swing, Okingshi kept swiping his blade through the air in random attacks; however these would be fruitless as his opponent ran off.

When his vision slowly returned moments later, Okingshi turned his head, looking to find his retreating opponent. Once he had confirmed their location, the bleeding genin held a hand against his wound, trying to stiffle the bleeding. "Running away now?" Okingshi said as he watched an exhausted Asahi fallback to wall. "Having some trouble breathing?" He added.

WEAPONS USED
NAME: Chinmoku | Silence
RANK: B-Rank
TYPE: Offence
ELEMENT: N/A
DESCRIPTION: Chinmoku is a war scythe that can be wielded either one handed or two. The handle is roughly a meter and a half long, made of a dark oak wood. The bottom half of the handle is wrapped in an weathered white fabric and the very end is capped with metal. It slightly bends until in it meets a metal reinforcement bar. This bar runs parallel with the wooden handle up until the blade.

The blade is roughly 80cm long, made with steel and is covered in a spider web-like green mould. The inner side is a sharp edge that curves into a fine point. The other edge of the blade is curved yet angular in appearance, with a change in angle half way down. It also has a slight hook shape before meeting the handle. Opposite the blade on the other side of the handle, a small container sits connected to the blade by a small hose.
•ABILITY:
-Breathless-
The small container contains organic matter that cultures a mould; which then grows from it, down the hose and across the blade. Okingshi is required to clean the handle to stop the mould growing down its length. The mould itself appears green and web-like in appearance, easily removable by a slight brush or when cutting an enemy.

Should someone be cut by the blade, even the slightest nick; after two rounds the mould quickly takes effect as it festers in the wound. Once this happens the mould begins poisoning the blood and nearby tissue, depriving it of oxygen. The skin surrounding the wound becomes very sore and tender, turning bluish in appearence. While any blood from the wound turns a deep crimson purple as the mould feeds on its oxygen.

However a deep enough wound or a series of smaller wounds that remove half of the mould from the blade will induce symptoms of hypoxia. While at first it manifests the same as a minor cut, after five rounds it will start effecting a larger portion of the skin around the wound/s, turning it extremely sensitive and blue; while a shortness in breath, coughing, wheezing and a fastened heartbeat take effect. This can be quite debilitating to their stamina and durability

The mould can be removed from the wound by sanitising it, either washing it thoroughly or burning it. Once all the mould has been removed from the blade, Okingshi requires two rotations to cultivate the mould across the blade again, it can not be grown through gure techniques as no technique has or can be developed to culture the unique mould.


JUTSU USED:
NAME: Takehoushi: Sansan [Mushroom Spore: Scattering]
RANK: D
CHAKRA USAGE: Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu
ELEMENT: N/A
HANDSEALS: None
DESCRIPTION:
Created as a defense against close-combat fighters, Takehoushi: Sansan is a jutsu that causes a compact burst of mold spores to release from the user before or upon contact. The spores released would temporarily blind or cause fits of violently coughing, if gotten into the eyes or inhaled. While they pose no real threat, the spores will give the user either an opening for a counter attack or allow them to escape. Additionally, it can be used to hide one’s movements if knocked into the surrounding environment(through a wall, into trees, or something).
