"towers". "No matter how many people you may lose, you have no choice but to go on living." SPLIT UP
Shigure was quite surprise the man managed to react to his surprise attack so quickly and avoid some of it, no easy feat against someone as skilled in the use of the gentle fist as the heir to the Hyuuga clan. The man was sent backwards, rolling on the ground due to the shockwave, but Shigure was not going to let him escape. However, his Byakugan also saw the other enemy they had sneaking into the building and starting to craft some hand seals to create a barrier, but it didn't seem to have covered it all. "Issei, quickly! The other one is in the tower, he created a barrier. You can still get in through the roof I believe, but be quick! I will take care of this one!" he exclaimed, being short with his words and explanations due to how time sensitive the situation was.
They were about to split up, but he had to believe Issei would be capable of preventing damage to the building in time, while he kept the other man busy. Using his already incredible movement speed and a special technique, the Thunder Step, Shigure would attempt to immediately close in with his foe. His movement was so fast that it seemed like his body was lightning.
If Movement Speed SA + Thunder Step allows him to close in before the man finished his jutsu:
Shigure would use the Thunder Step to further enhance the already impressive speed of his attack, aiming to stop the man from casting his jutsu by using his technique. "Hakke Rokujuuyonshou!" once the man was within the area of the Eight Trigrams, Shigure would start an onslaught of tenketsu strikes, aiming first at the man's arms and then at his core, with the goal of shutting down his chakra pathway system, stop him from being able to use jutsu, and also damaging his inner organs. If that was successful, then it would be very likely that the man would not be able to continue fighting afterwards, but he would not lower his guard. Instead, he would resume his battle stance and wait to see what was going on.
If the enemy was truly defeated, he would rush to aid Issei.
If the man casts his jutsu before Shigure gets there:
"Dammit! I wasn't fast enough!" he would grit his teeth in frustration, but he wouldn't hesitate either. With the Thunder Step and his speed and reflexes, Shigure would dodge the three birds coming his way and try to get into melee range in order to attack the man with the Eight Trigrams Sixtyfour Palms, only this time he would focus all of his attacks on the man's torso, aiming to shut down the core of his chakra pathway system, preventing him from using techniques, and damaging the inside of his body. If that was successful, then it would be very likely that the man would not be able to continue fighting afterwards, but he would not lower his guard. Instead, he would resume his battle stance and wait to see what was going on.
If the enemy was truly defeated, he would rush to aid Issei.
"So what if it seems hopeless? If it were me, I still wouldn't give up. Embrace your dreams. And, whatever happens, protect your honour as a Shinobi, for the price of freedom is steep."

『 BYAKUGAN 』
Like all members of his clan, Shigure also has the famous Byakugan as one of his signature traits. Naturally, Shigure’s eyes have a near 360 degrees field of vision around himself, save for a small blindspot at the back of his neck above the thoracic vertebra. His eyes are capable of seeing through most objects, giving him great perception of his environment, and making quite the challenge to surprise or ambush the Hyuuga when his doujutsu is activated. Having been seriously trained to develop his sight, Shigure managed to increase the range of his Byakugan to a respectful 2 kilometres range, which makes him quite the competent tracker in missions. His eyes also allow him to see infrared, through chakra barriers, discern clones from their makers, determine colour of someone’s chakra, and determine if a genjutsu is being used or not.
He is also very capable in his ability to see chakra, including the chakra circulatory system inside a person’s body, thus allowing him to easily identify the precise location of the tenketsus, which is paramount in the use of the Gentle Fist to its maximum capacity, power, and finesse. On top of it all, Shigure’s training and experience as a people’s person allowed him to add this insight to the power of his Byakugan, thus making him quite competent at reading people’s emotions. Therefore, when using his Byakugan, Shigure can usually detect if someone is lying through the impulses of their brain, heartbeat, and general body language. Moreover, when focused on an opponent, Shigure can even anticipate their reactions based on their muscles and body functions prior to the execution of an action.
『 ENHANCED COMBAT SPEED 』
What Shigure lacks in physical strength, he definitely makes it up in the combat speed department. Having trained the Gentle Fist since his early childhood, the Hyuuga learned that raw power and superior strength were borderline useless for his style since, in the end, nobody can train their inner organs to become stronger. Therefore, the chakra reliant style of the Hyuuga fighting style was more than enough for him to achieve the desired results in battle. Thus, the truly efficient way to improve his fighting capabilities was directly associated with how fast he could act and react in a fight.
Shigure’s reflexes are absurdly sharp, and he can react almost instantly to attacks, which makes him quite skilled at counter attacking with his deadly Gentle Fist, making it difficult for opponents to actually land a blow on him. In short, he can react fast to combat situations.
『 ENHANCED CHAKRA CONTROL 』
Due to the intensity of his training and his overall style as a practitioner of the Gentle Fist, as well as his Hyuuga genes, Shigure was able to develop a level of chakra control that puts him above that of his peers, equiparing himself to those a rank higher. His level of control is remarkable and allows him to optimise the usage of chakra, avoiding any unnecessary waste while using his techniques. This ability gives him an edge on the battlefield, as he is able to use more techniques, with more frequencing, while also avoiding the draining effects of running out of chakra due to waste.
『 GENTLE FIST SAVANT 』
Shigure is a natural savant at his clan’s legendary Taijutsu style despite being a sort of a late bloomer. He has developed an incredible proficiency with the techniques of his clan, that allows him to stand out above even his fellow kinsmen. With his current level of understanding and application of his techniques, the heir to the clan brings incredible precision and swiftness to his attacks, rarely ever missing his mark once an attack is launched.
Guided by his potent doujutsu, he became an expert at shutting down his opponents chakra network, as well as combining the techniques of the clan together to deliver even more powerful attacks. He can, while using the Gentle Fist and it's techniques, also land more blows per second than most of his peers, moving so swiftly that it’s even hard to keep up. This makes him an incredibly dangerous opponent to fight at close quarters, as he is capable of giving even higher ranking Shinobi a real challenge.
『 MOVEMENT SPEED 』
Shigure's speed is no longer solely restricted to his reaction speed in a fight; he can also move extremely fast. The Hyuuga can run at an incredible speed, capable of matching higher ranking shinobi. Keeping up with his pace is an strenuous task for those who are not skilled in close quarter combat, and to the untrained eye his movements will appear like a blur. If his opponents do not have superior reaction speed, they may struggle to evade him from closing in during battle, or from catching up to them in a chase. As consequence, he is also quite capable at retreating from combat, as few can match his full speed.
Techniques used:
NAME: Raiippo [Thunder Step]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Medium
CLASSIFICATION: Taijutsu
ELEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION:
The thunder step is a step beyond the wind step. The user will move their body even more faster than that in the wind step, and with their chakra, will cause their body to appear like "lightning" flying around the opponent in circles; there have been instances where the user has also appeared as a hundred sharp pieces of paper that fly around the opponent. This move is far more difficult to predict than the wind step and the user can launch dozens of attacks within seconds to quickly wear the opponent down. (tai primary only)
NAME: Hakke Rokujūyon Shō [ Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Medium
CLASSIFICATION: Taijutsu
DESCRIPTION:
The Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms is a taijutsu that should only be passed down in the main house of the Hyūga. Using the Byakugan’s near 360º filed of vision the user will strike the enemies within their eye reach with violent palm or finger thrusts. By striking sixty-four of the tenketsu, they will cause a huge disruption in which the chakra flow of the enemy will be forcefully stopped, making it unable for them to even properly stand after the assault. Each set of strikes is done at an exponentially increasing pace and strength. The attack not only disables the enemy but also knocks them back with every set of strikes.
