[Sarutobi Kaneda]

I WILL PROTECT THOSE

Once again, in the late afternoon sun, Kaneda had found himself in the practice yards of Konohagakure. It had become a bit of a common routine of his as his graduation drew closer and closer, trying to squeeze out every ounce of time in the day that he could manage to try and get in a little extra training for his techinques. While he had not quite mastered the cloning or henge techniques yet, he was getting better with them as his skill for chakra manipulation had become supplimented with extra training from some of his peers and Kazuto's wife, Miho.

Once more practicing with the leaf technique after his taijutsu routine, Kaneda would sit in a meditative stance, down on his knees and sitting on his heels. He took in a few deep breaths, a small leaf inbetween his cupped hands before he focused his chakra between them and tried to get the leaf to float. He could see his progress as the leaf began to twitch, soon spiraling in the air between his two hands. A confident grin flashed on his face, seeing that this might have been his greatest attempt at moving the leaf in his own, isolated training.

He soon stopped the flow of chakra into the object, catching the leaf in his palm before he would tried the technique again using a little less chakra than he had before. This time, though, it seemed much more reminicent of his previous attempts, with the leaf only moving slightly before the dispensation of chakra broke, causing the leaf to fall.

"Dammit." Kaneda scoffed to himself, a look of disapproval taking over his expression before he rose to his feet and took in a breath. "What else should I practice with?" He mused to himself, looking around at the training grounds as he tried to find something other than a leaf to test his chakra manipulation on.

[Lady Kazui]

Don’t just weather the storm.
Dance in the rain.

❧

To say that it was a warm summer’s day would be an understatement, it was hot hot hot in the Land of Fire as spring finally passed and welcomed in the warmer climates that most of the natives enjoyed so much. Despite this being her favorite season behind winter, the woman wasn’t alloted much time to enjoy it, not as much as she would’ve liked. From meetings to paperwork, Kazui was often booked for the majority of the day, so much so that even the clan that she was in charge of leading would notice the woman’s absence.

Luckily for her, or better yet, thanks to her desire to get ahead of the curve - weeks of constant work would finally be brought to an end and she would find the time to get away from the office much earlier than normal. With the rest of the day ahead of her Kazui decided that she would provide some help to a certain someone who needed it.

Her heels clicked and clacked against the paved roads with each and every strut. A tight yet modest and formal navy blue mini dress would be her outfit of choice for the day with her typical green haori draped loosely over her shoulders. While usually not her style of fashion, perhaps subconsciously Kazui wore it to garnish as much of Reiashi’s attention as she could whenever they crossed paths in the office. Nevertheless, the woman felt rather good and wanted to spread the summer joy to others so as she approached the training grounds, the ravenette would do so with a basket filled to the rim with ice, refreshments, and water balloons held between her hip and her off hand. Her other hand was equipped with a balloon filled with ice cold water.

"Delivery for a Sarutobi Kaneda!”

She announced loudly before slinging the water balloon at the man’s back. The balloon would burst and splatter cold water all about, and Kazui would find every bit of it hilarious as she chuckled. "A student of mine mentioned to me that there was a classmate of hers who wished to master their control..so I thought I’d offer my expertise.” She waved her free hand vaguely before approaching closer, placing the basket beside Kaneda and stepping in front of the older student. She’d take a closer look at him before retracting a bit. A younger version of her would’ve poked fun at him for being so old in the academy, but Kazui understood now that not everything was what it seemed.

Always Passively Active:
NAME: Kagura Shingan [Kagura Mind's Eye]
RANK: A
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu // Hijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION:
This ability allows the user to find, sense, and track individuals through their chakra over vast range that exceeds ten kilometers. This is done by focusing and opening the mind's eye, though due to the low chakra cost many users keep it active often. The ability also extends to telling when a person is lying from the fluctuations in a person's chakra made from dishonest emotions or detecting if someone, including the user, is under a genjutsu. Also by focusing on a particular chakra, the user can perceive its location and movement with great detail.

Little Know It All - Extreme Intelligence
It was no secret that Kazui was regarded as a scholar when she was in the academy. One of the smartest in her class, the Uchiha often found herself correcting and/or helping out people older than herself. Many considered her very intellectual then, but that was just only the surface of her potential. Now, the girl is regarded as a genius, her IQ is nothing to be taken lightly or to be taken for granted, even as a young chunin. The teen possesses amazing mental capacity, is able to concentrate flawlessly even in the heat of battle, can calculate things in her head with great speed, and is able to remember many things with perfect recollection, even if it’s just useless information that is meant to be disregarded. In addition to that, Kazui is very deductive, competent, and witted. Her mind is the most dangerous weapon she possesses for many reasons. The girl is highly alert, aware, and very analytical, and she is also very ingenious and is capable of thinking outside of the box as well. Not only is she capable of reading, analyzing, and breaking down a person’s fighting style, but she can also determine what kind of person they are just by the way they speak, the way they carry themselves, and their thoughts on certain things. While doing this, it’s incredibly difficult to deceive the girl, especially if one is not skilled in the art of deception. Furthermore, Kazui can formulate numerous plans to certain situations in mere seconds. She thinks 10 steps ahead, and always has a back up plan just incase.

Gone In The Wind - Blistering Speed
As a child, Kazui was born weaker than others. Her health conditions set the girl at a disadvantage physically since birth, however her constant effort and drive to become the best has pushed her far beyond many others the same rank as herself. Her speed is nothing to be taken lightly, she has pushed herself physically to be able to not only outpace her opponent, but outright force them into keeping up with her and pushing them to the brink with her speed as well. The girl is fast, quick, and agile, even rivaling those who dedicated their entire life to the art of taijutsu to the point where if they haven’t specifically honed their speed, then the girl could outright outclass them in that regard. Those with weak perception often have trouble perceiving the girl’s movements, and to a normal human’s eye perceiving her is nigh impossible. All of her movements are inhumanly quick and hard to keep track of, and when used in conjunction with her sharingan, it can make her a formidable opponent for even the strongest of shinobi.

The Minimalist - Chakra Control
There was a problem that Kazui noticed during her time in the academy and that was the fact that she often found herself tiring out and exhausting herself rather quickly, even when she had just started she could feel herself beginning to wilt. So to counter those measures, the girl studied and asked around, trying to find the reason behind it and if there was a way she could fix it. She wasn’t born with massive reserves so while she utilized her justus, she often did so wastefully. But now, the girl has managed to control the amount of chakra she uses in a technique that allows her to fight much longer than before. She uses the absolute bare minimum of the chakra that’s needed, and not a drop more.

Uchiha Bloodline: Two Tomoe Sharingan
Being born within the Uchiha clan, Kazui has been blessed and/or cursed with a power that only an Uchiha can possess and use to its complete and full potential when they have experienced extreme emotions that causes their chakra to pour into their optic nerves, gifting them with the Sharingan, also known as the eyes that reflect the heart. There are three stages to the sharingan, and it is tracked by the amount of tomoe that appears around an Uchiha’s pupil. One tomoe unlocks the eye of insight, it grants the user the ability to see chakra within an opponent or ally and it also gives an increase to the user’s perceptive abilities. Two tomoe grants the user the eye of hypnotism, while in turn increasing the previous abilities that the ‘Eye of Insight’ grants. The girl’s precognition and perception is heightened well beyond what’s achievable by even the most skilled and elite shinobi, allowing her more of a predictive insight on her opponent as well as the world around her. In terms of her being able to track extremely fast objects and people alike, the eye also allows a natural reactive ability that helps her respond more accurately than a single tomoe could ever allow. As for the ability to see chakra, with a second tomoe the smallest and most faint sources of chakra can easily be spotted by the eye without any issue at all. Assigning color and analyzing the flow of the chakra, Kazui can tell which nature is going to be used as well as where the chakra will be coming from.

The Eye of Hypnotism on the other hand is much different than the previous eye, it allows the girl the ability to cast and break genjutsu with no issue at all, in a way only the Uchiha are capable of. It also gives her access to a set of genjutsu only known to those who possess great visual prowess amongst the clan. These illusions are very powerful in nature and are some of the most dangerous known to the art, they are well beyond standard genjutsu, and in addition the illusions can be casted with just a single glare. Those who met her gaze will find themselves under her spell before they can even realize what happened.

Tiny Dancer - Elusiveness
Kazui is one quick girl, which isn’t hard to tell. Thanks to her training, the girl has amazing agility and reflexes that allow her to keep herself out of harms way. Even without her sharingan being active, Kazui possesses sharp perceptive abilities and reflexes that allows her to become an escape artist of some sort as well as a complete nuisance to those trying to fight her. The girl’s reaction speed is superb and not to be taken lightly as it is, however, when the dojutsu is active, taking into account the girl’s great speed and adding her keen reflexes into the mix, it’s capabilities are much more potent and useful to the Uchiha. With this, not only is Kazui capable of keeping track of even the most renowned speediest opponents and attacks, the girl is able to keep up with, and react to them as well with relative ease.

Wake Up To Reality - KME Genjutsu Prowess
As an Uchiha it is believed that Kazui and many of her clanmen were born with a natural affinity for the art of genjutsu, but of course none of it can ever come to fruition if there is no effort placed behind it. However, since she was constantly reminded by those around her about that fact, the girl began to focus on the art more than ever before.

Although her illusions do become much more elaborate, less flawed in a certain sense, and stronger, the true results come more in the form of defending herself against genjutsu. Her vast knowledge of the art as well as her training and extremely high sensory capabilities allow for the Uchiha’s escape efforts to be significantly stronger than it normally is, allowing her to free herself from genjutsu up to 1 rank above what she is typically capable of via the special ability granted to the Uchiha with The Sharingan’s genjutsu escape. It should be noted however that genjutsu reversal does not receive any additional boosts from this ability.

Sleight of Hand - Seals Master
As Kazui grew older and gained more experience and familiarity with the ninja arts, the girl’s chakra control had essentially been mastered along with her speed and accuracy with forming hand-seals. Countless of hours spent training, learning, and even creating new jutsu has made the girl grow familiar with every seal needed to perform any jutsu, every motion for every combination, her body absorbed and memorized - allowing her to flow through the motions with no given thought or effort. Her speed with forming these seals is insanely quick and precise, she’s even capable of stringing together the lengthiest combinations of hand seals and casting jutsu faster than most can even dream of keeping up with, making it appear as if she hadn’t even tried to use any hand-seals to begin with. Her vast knowledge and familiarity with sealing in addition to her refined chakra control has lead her to being able to utilize only a single hand to form a seal as well, though she only does this under certain circumstances.

[Sarutobi Kaneda]

I WILL PROTECT THOSE

Feeling a burst of water splash against his back, Kaneda turned abruptly, his expression immediately turning to one of aggression.

"What the hell?!" The Sarutobi yelled, before he saw the woman standing a few yards away from him.

The subject who threw the water balloon was a bit smaller than average, albeit only slightly. She had stormy grey eyes, with ebony hair, and a figure that gave no question to the life of a Kunoichi. What's more, however, Kaneda recognized her immediately, promptly regretting his quick outburst.

"H-Hancho-sama," Kaneda started, his face shifting from anger to one of utmost respect. Although most surely would have bowed in the situation, the woman's body language did not seem to demand such formalities. He hesitated a moment as she drew closer, quickly explaining that one of her students mentioned he was looking for a little extra help."Sorry for the outburst, I can't say I would have ever expected you to be one who threw that thing." He'd return a small laugh at the instance, his hand subconsciously moving to the back of his head as he felt the cool water begin to set in. "That feels pretty good, actually." He thought out loud, looking down at the torn pieces of the water balloon that Kazui threw.

"Kiseki?" He asked, his mind traveling back only a few days prior to the day that the Uchiha had helped him try to master the leaf exercise he was still trying to practice. "Well, doesn't matter who it was, I guess. But, if you're offering a few pointers, I can't think of a much better teacher than the Jonin Hancho herself."
