... Evil Doesn't Die; It Changes Shape. Excitement ran through the air as Kunikunosaku thought of how the hunt was going to go. The threads writhed just under her skin in erratic spots to signify the emotion was felt throughout her whole body. She was thinking she'd need to go all the way to Etsuko's cell once more, to a pleasant surprise, she did not in fact have to walk all of the way there. Her former sensei met Kuni halfway and immediately pointed at the time away. Kunikunosaku nodded agreeingly as she folded her arms. A weapon dulls without practice. I'm pretty sure you mean erodes without maintenance. Kunikunosaku retorted mentally, she understood where Etsuko was coming from though. The woman thought herself too be a weapon so these analogies made sense, especially when Kuni took the time to learn a bit more of Etsuko, from first-hand to hearsay. Of course, each had a speaker's bias and a complete picture could not be formed. "Kirigakure's FEAR event if I recall correctly. It has been a while since we were side by side though, I don't remember how we were there, considering the tournament nature." The Mikatakujira stated matter of factly, she compartmentalized her thoughts as she tried to figure out the words that weren't too technical for this meeting.
"Best type of violent affair, killing a Takigakure nuke. We're better off killing them than apprehending them, despite it wanting us to interrogate them. You know how Ryū-sama is regarding traitors. Remember Hideo?" The younger Kunoichi asked rhetorically but she still paused, she had a feeling her former sensei is still a bit too facetious. "Yeah, the nuke is from his clan... Funny how time is ironic. The declassification of what we have is she's a Shukan, know about them? Well, the file says she was exclusive to it before being reintegrated into standard forces. So, apparently, rumors of a secret organization are true, and we have to bring her in or kill her, I'm for the latter. She tried to make a group that followed and only answered to her. Even my clan still answers to Ryū so more than likely, he'll want her head. But that's about it." Kuni gestured for her Sensei to follow as she began to lead to the exit, handing Etsuko the small file they were allowed to read for this hunt. "Destroy or hold onto it when you're done reading, can't let that fall into underqualified hands."
Kunikunosaku didn't add much more. She was used to the silence between them, it reminded her of old times. "Says she was last seen at the Kasai Research Facility. Considering her past, we need to find some information there to get a new trail. If those rumors are true, we need to be a bit more observant." There were hushed whispers in barracks and amongst casual Chūnin both serious and jokingly of the well-hidden and specialized group. Kunikunosaku could only gather the hearsay of the group and the exaggeration of their stealth. So, the possibility this task was near impossible was valid. But, she wasn't going to give up. "Want to lead like old times? Or do you want me to see what I can do?"
SA(S) USED: Jiongu | Earth Grudge FearAfter having to recycle the roots that ended up killing the previous Apprentice just to transfer Jiongu to Kunikunosaku, the mass of black roots recollects most of its abilities from the Apprentice previous while forming new ones with its new master/host, Kunikunosaku. As far as the roots are concerned, like any organism, it desires to feed and survive, all else is not required, nor necessary to function. As for the Symbiotic Relationship benefits Kunikunosaku can control the thread-like roots however she wishes. The thread are quite versatile, acting much like surgical threads they can be used to sew up wounds stretch, or harden for attacks akin to squid tentacles, as well as being equally flexible and significantly dexterous. In time, Kunikunosaku will learn that as long as they keep a heart attached to at least some of the roots making up her body at all times, she is functionally immortal, only dying once all the threads are completely removed from any living hearts, and is unable to be poisoned. Because all of her vital organs and their corresponding systems are gone, Kunikunosaku has no need to breathe, eat, or sleep. The roots are sufficiently maintained by storing hearts that are pumping and living, in turn drawing sustenance from them. These roots also allow Kunikunosaku to utilize the inherent nature of any hearts she adds to their body, allowing them to perform jutsu of that element as if it was their natural affinity. Symbiotic Relationship: MutualismAfter gaining knowledge on how Jiongu behaves and acts, Kunikunosaku developed a strong bond with the Jiongu entity. Accepting both live in her now; that both are what makes up Kunikunosaku. As a result of this understanding and bond, Jiongu aids her in combat - despite being a small boost. When conditions are met, Jiongu can provide an aided strength boost to Kunikunosaku during combat. It is still relative to her natural strength at the time. While this has no speed benefits, this boost of strength can put her up to par with the max strength of her peers at the same rank level. As she matures and gains new skills and new statuses. So too does her strength grow. Symbiotic Bond: Strong Mind, Strong BodyAs Kunikunosaku developed a stronger relationship with Jiongu, the creature bestowed Kunikunosaku an additional gift. That which is bestowed grants her the body as strong as her will. As long as she has the will to fight and keep pushing forward, Kunikunosaku has attained a sense of a strong body. She can still feel all the pain she receives, however, her will will push through it; literally making her body push through the pain and maintain functionality despite the egregious wounds she may receive. Overwhelming pain at one time or other will breaking input can debilitate the girl's will-driven tolerance to falter to the degree of an average shinobi, opening her up to common pain. It is this will that allows her to force the tendrils/roots/threads to repair themselves from injury or stitch back together. This will increases with her skill as she becomes more confident and driven to satiate both her needs and Jiongu's. Power of a God: After a great time learning how to control Jiongu, Kunikunosaku has learned to store chakra in each of her threads so long as they continue to be attached to at least one of her hearts. This extra storage capacity allows the girl to amass greater amounts of chakra within herself, expanding her reserves beyond that of the normal shinobi her rank. As with many other abilities, this ability continues to grow as the girl does through the ranks and years. Cursed Master: As a reward for attaining a greater deal of control over her symbiotic relationship with Jiongu, Kunikunosaku acquired the keys to the gate of mastering her abilities. This new boon allows Kunikunosaku to double the impact of her EGF ninjutsu. In addition, a passive boon is the ability to completely negate Jiongu's manipulation to consume more hearts. These boons together allow Kuni to further manipulate Jiongu against its basic natures, improving her unique utilization. While still young and unrefined, the ability is expected to grow as their bond deepens to even further levels. Medical Knowledge: Being from Takigakure's prestigious clan medical clan, Kunikunosaku is also set to learn the human anatomy, biology, and Kinesthetics, While this knowledge DOES NOT give her access to Medical Ninjutsu Techniques, however, the knowledge does unlock abilities of precision to the human body with every attack. This knowledge grants field combat medic aid but nowhere near the degree of those actually trained in it. JUTSU(S) USED: N/A EQUIPMENT USED: 01 | Ikari to Hisan (Continuous)
