[Michi]

Guys, I hate to be like this but can you guys please post per ROE. I have been super lax with it giving 5 full days no matter what and I have not gotten anything from either of you this round. It is kinda insulting to do this to me when I am spending my time moderating this. =/ If you are looking to end it, forfeit.

 

[Miroku Akkuma]

Akkuma smiled the battle was truly his though the child did not know it. Still he managed to use his tricks against the youth all while moving to the sound of both his foes & allies bones breaking indiscriminately. To the Kitsune it was glorious to know the agony in which they suffered gave him great delight. For still they endured. Through all the pain & agony they persevered. Dashing forward with a massive Odama Rasengan he pursued the teenager to his surprise the boy still had tremendous agility even in his current state. Managing to avoid the foxes attack not once but twice reminding the Fox why he should never underestimate his foes. "Hmph...Impressive brat now stay still!" & with those words he attacked once more. Dashing forward he unleashed a barrage of kicks, punches & even chakra infused tail whips at his foe. Doing so with the unnerving beastial ferocity burning within his eyes.

With a wave of his massive hands Jinkotsu cast a massive chakra field over the sky above the Arena. Then with all the amplified ferocity of the sun a cursed beam of sunlight would crash into the teenager. Such was the power of his summon that he'd remind the young warrior not to forget he was there. Next Akkuma dashed forward grabbing Hoshi & throwing him into the air. Bursting into the air with blue Kitsune fire Akkuma pursued his foe landing atop his face & using it as a landing cushion. Unfortunately the blow did not achieve the desired result he'd sought. Fortunately for his foe it would seem that he'd managed to avoid the worst of that deadly Taijutsu. "Come boy you claimed to be an Ascended Shinobi...what is this? Because if you're going to call yourself a God what would that make me?" with those words he grappled his foe holding his broken arms above his head. Akkuma would whisper to the teenager. "You have potential but it's being wasted...your ideals make you weak. Should you ever truly decide to gain the strength needed to protect your people seek me out in Sunagakure." with those words he'd push the boy forward before attempting to use another brutal Taijutsu attack known as the Spear Hand technique.

Luckily for his foe he managed to avoid the strike, another achievement which made him chuckle. It seemed the more this warrior let go of his temper the more capable he became. Unfortunately for the youth it would also mean that he was the kind of shinobi who could easily be broken & turned from the righteous path. For he'd seen scores of shinobi like Hoshi in his time he'd learned many valuable lessons about people over his years in this lifetime. "I am Miroku Akkuma child. Remember that name...one day I will be a legend all shinobi know." with those words he would begin to crack his neck & roll out the kinks of his limbs as his wounds healed before his foe. Standing now before his foe as if he'd only just stepped into battle, that was except for his chakra reserves. But Akkuma knew how to make the most of what he had, he was one of the last Mist shinobi. He'd learned early in his academy days that even without chakra one could still destroy their foe. His kikaichu coated his hands & he once more prepared to show his foe the power he held.

[Apologies on the wait]

 

[Shouyu Hoshi]

Hoshi was amped by the words of his opponent. So much, it brought him to the pinnacle of his of his energy. Being berated by his foe caused Hoshi to charge up his chakra instantly, he accelerated the flow to his heart tenketsu, the focal point of everyone’s chakra. The sudden surge caused his power level to burst after his bones gave way to bugs eating him and sheer force of gaining such power in a quick time. Hoshi’s pale blue flame grew and was even shifting into a fiery red vapor. Hoshi had opened the eight gate, the gate of death, and Hoshi truly understood the cost of the Hachimon lifestyle. He cocked his head toward Akkuma.

“Hayate Shin or Kogami Ayumu are no longer your Kage. I will protect and unite all Shinobi from this banner. KUMOGAKURE.”

Hoshi took a strange stance, it could be related to a tiger ready to pounce, he lowered himself to the ground, leaning on his back pivot foot. In a second just before he launched, his red vapor aura would form into the likeness of a demonic serpent, it would attempt to strike Akkuma while Hoshi followed with a powerful roundhouse kick.

Hoshi then felt a sap in his energy again. It caused him to cringe again and gain while the demon healed Akkuma once more. Hoshi could only chuckle at the odds against him. He knew in a true duel Akkuma would have fallen long ago without the distraction. In the same breath, Hoshi had to hand it to him for his craftiness on the fly. He realized his game that he sought to play, while his opponent was enough to see through Hoshi’s combat style. This was truly a battle he could enjoy in its essence. Yet again, Akkuma would try to deceive Hoshi and draw him away from his ninja way.

“Foolish they may be, yes, but only a fool would openly cast away the justification of such aspirations. You my fellow Shinobi, have sold your soul to your blade. To the bloodlust of combat, or whatever ulterior objective you seek. Heh, usually it’s easy to tell someone’s true objective when you fight them. But maybe this crowd is distracting.”

Hoshi took another stance. This was one was another lower stance where he planted his right foot forward caving the ground beneath the weight of his might. Hoshi felt his energy drain once more, he shook it off and growled. His Youkai continued to bless him with a revitalized life source. Hoshi was dazed from being low on chakra, and his first time opening the death gate but an immense amount of stress upon his youthful body. His inexperience with the gate could prove to be his downfall.

Hoshi was dizzy and shook his head, he lost sight of Akkuma temporarily, something in his system wasn’t ticking right. But Hoshi felt the Youkai needed to be gone anyway, so delivering a good hit would help it on its way back to the spiritual plan from where it came.

“Hachimon Ninpo: Ultimate Technique!”

Hoshi was then shrouded in a deep red vapor which formed a highly detailed and graphic dragon head. It even took form into a full on dragon as its body grew on. Hoshi dashed toward with a tremendously powerful palm which struck the Youkai dead in the center and sent the demon flying. The course of the dragon which followed would have ruptured the stadium floor causing a massive crater.

This fight was different than at home. Even then that crowd was a homeland and he was a hero to them. Here, it was almost deafening, the sound of the crowd and the words of his new rival. It was in the moment he felt frozen again, he looked over to Akkuma who was gazing at him. He first thought, ‘He’s… Anbu?’ This familiar jutsu held him in his pose and he refused to struggle already understanding the futility.

After his last stunt and that chakra draining ninjutsu, Hoshi was completely out of chakra. It seemed the Youkai was at its end too, with Akkuma treading thin ice. The weight of the eight gate completely stifled the boy as he was unable move from his bones writhing in pain. Akkuma took full advantage of this, Hoshi was still feeling the burn from the Youkai’s last attack before he was chased down with a rasengan that he dodged expertly, twice. Akkuma followed up with an extensive combo, landing more hits than missing and Hoshi misread some of his movements. Shortly after the sky blackened only to be lit with a flame which shrouded the young boy in a fiery tempest. There was no escape for the little time he was given and being slightly off by the pain and sting of Akkuma’s words was enough to mentally distract the youth.

“You’re wrong. Miroku. Akkuma. No longer will let your words cloud my judgements.”

Hoshi took a deep breath but his solace was short lived. He was grappled, launched in the air, and dropped upon the ground. The move stifled him and Akkuma snatched him up again. Hoshi opened his dazed eyes and saw the jutsu he was preparing, Hoshi widened his eyes and dashed out of the way at the last second. Hoshi was heaving breaths until he slowed his cardiovascular activity with long deep breaths.

“Any other Shinobi would have caved in by now. Heh, you talk a big game Miroku Akkuma, and your summon is quite formidable. Jinkotsu was it? Heh, I bet Mizu could take him both hands tied behind his back. But it also appears Jinkotusu is almost done himself. What will you do when only you and I remain on this field, demon of the mist?”

As if to remind his opponent and the stadium of the hot blooded Hachimon spirit, Hoshi flexed his aura once more. Was he playing at being hurt to let Akkuma believe he had the reigns? No, this fight was difficult as it is, and Hoshi needed to add more spice to his game plan. His cringed and twisted his mouth as his aura blazed into the evening.

[Miroku Akkuma]

How wonderful the boy had finally started to show some shinobi sense & use some defensive measures. Unfortunately for the trickster fox he'd not anticipated such tactics from his foe due to the boys initial reckless nature. Perhaps his foe had learnt something from him. Akkuma would chuckle as the battle began in full once more. Not just once but multiple times did the teenager manage to hide himself briefly from the Fox. "Well done Hoshi...but neither of those men ever were or will be my Kage." he'd say to the boy he'd thought this fight would be a simple brawl. However he would have to show the boy you couldn't hide from a Demon forever. Dashing forward he'd attempt to strike his foe many times, while Hoshi maneuvered in & out of his view. That did not stop the Foxes blows from finding their mark although even as broken as the shinobi was he was still capable of evading Akkuma. It was truly amazing just how far this young shinobi could go. He couldn't wait to see what kind of shinobi he would come to be.

Before long the consecutive barrage of blows would end with Hoshi seemingly hidden from the foxes sight. "Ah trying to give me a taste of my own medicine hey? Because even with that Doujutsu you're blind to the ways of this world. Due to that you could never truly protect shinobi.
I will spread my will across all Nations & ensure the shinobi way endures all time. Let's see who's ideal prevails." with those words he began to prepare for his next strategy. It was then he felt it, his presence. That of Katsuo Sunahoshi, The Last of his Name & Kazekage. So the military leader had decided to stop in at his fight? Perhaps he wished to gauge the foxes abilities? Maybe he was seeing how much of a problem he could potentially be. While it was too loud for him to hear the words spoken by those present he knew that he was most likely the source of conversation. After all he'd just launched a kunai up at a shinobi, although the 'victim' seemed over joyed by the action.

Those crimson eyes began to search for Hoshi as the last of the foxes chakra began to swirl around his form in the guise of blue kitsune fire. It's raw appearance before it would be molded by his hands into his next attack. Would Hoshi be prepared for the actions of the Fox & if so how would he next adapt to the beings adapted strategy. His foe had released the last of his restraints & as such shown he had no more cards to play. Or that was at least what the fox thought. "Ultimate Technique? Perfect Forms...ideals like these do nothing but limit you. To a scientist such as myself such beliefs are nothing more then a hindrance. Implying that there is no better or further that one could go." he'd say the battle raged on in response to his foe.

"Mizu? What a shame you didn't have the foresight to summon him. After all if you had perhaps you'd not have been in such a pitiful state. Instead allow me to illuminate you..." with those words he would show his foe what it was to know fear. Making his finally preparations he'd ensure there was nowhere else he could go to hide from the Fox.

[Shouyu Hoshi]

Hoshi switched into a familiar defensive form of the Jyuuken. He hoped his student Honnou, the young Saito watching atop would take notice of Hoshi’s variation of the famed stance. His body cringed once more. He could still feel the bugs feeding inside him. He was already to deep in the fight to pay it any mind. He was still outnumbered and completely exhausted of chakra. He was breathing heavily, sweat evaporating as fast it could make itself. Suddenly Hoshi vanished in a veil of camouflage.

Hoshi had tossed mini smoke bombs which would mask his movements. In response to be free of his opponent’s view, Hoshi canceled all maintains. This would abruptly ease a thickness in the atmosphere which was the vibrant presence of his aura. Even his eyes returned to their normal docile state. The young Hyuuga began healing and replenishing chakra at a moderate rate. Meanwhile, Hoshi had to keep himself hidden in between small windows created by a small flume of smoke. For the most part he had remained successful remaining under his foes’ radar as both lashed out continuously at the Kumo Shinobi.

In the midst of evading blows Akkuma continued to berate the teenagers prominent and just ideals. Finally Hoshi began to understand the man’s reasoning. But even that would not allow Hoshi to conform to his ways. In such, he’d gather the spirit to retort to the fox demon.

“And I will proclaim my childish ideals and inspire the Shinobi to follow their heart. To remain resolute in their ninja way. For, having nothing to stand for, means you are easily swayed like a withering tree in the wind.”

Hoshi was finally struck from hiding, stifled by blow after blow from Akkuma’s Combo. During the raging attack, he was able to catch view of the hands of several strikes and avoid with a duck, or side step. Hoshi never would have thought, that round one, he’d have to pull a card he never even tried before. The Hachimon Eight Gate. He smirked at his opponent who belittled his final form. Hoshi would adjust his stance having slacked from his broken figure. He inhaled sharply. Once revealed, Akkuma would notice the teenager at base form. He would appear as he first met Akkuma before the bell tolled and the match begun.

“Believe me… The only limit alive is the limit you place upon yourself. If I believed in limits, there is no way I would have grown accustomed to this Hachimon nature. Miroku Akkuma, in another light, I could see you as a comrade. But here and now, I must defeat you in order to reveal to the world… the enduring strength of my resolve. Are you ready to continue?!”

Hoshi reached for a second item pouch at the back of his waistband. In that same motion he snagged up another handful of his mini smoke bombs. Attempting stealth in broad day was difficult, but at times like this he was prepared, and being so low on chakra he was at an odds of truly achieving a hidden status. He clicked his teeth, the tables turned for the young boy quickly and he could only imagine what the crowd was thinking from outside the ring.

[Miroku Akkuma]

Akkuma smiled as the battle waged on it would seem his foe had Hoshi would not be broken just yet. Choosing now to Summon the otherworldly creature to aid him. If only he'd known that this was too late in the game to be of any use to him. Hoshi's words made him chuckle if only he knew just the type of being Akkuma was. He desired not to deny those the wishes of their hearts. In truth he would see all shinobi achieve their dreams so long as they did not conflict with his own. "Then let's see who's ninja way the Fate's wish to see prevail..." with those words he entered the fray again in full glory with this newcomer upon the field.

Mizu was summoned by Hoshi who immediately began trying to aid him. But unfortunately for the summon it was far too late for it to be of any use to it's master. "That's why you will fall against me...I will conquer like the shinobi Gods of Old. While you would stagnate & endure..." when truthfully Akkuma to believed shinobi needed to endure the world. With those words he prepared himself knowing it would only be a matter of time until his foe fell. Those crimson eyes moved to Mizu & there was an unnatural hunger in those eyes. Cracking his neck as he prepared to remind his foe that he faced not just any shinobi

The exchange of blows was quick & subtle both shinobi seemed ill intent on allowing the other to gain a stable foothold on the battle. While Akkuma knew that Hoshi was going to truly begin to feel pain. He couldn't help but wonder if they boy knew just how far he had pushed him. "...perhaps in a different time Hoshi. But what I must do. I do for all shinobi...forgive me." with those words something changed in the demons body language. There was a shift in his aura that caused no physical changes to that around them. But Hoshi would be to tell the heart of his opponent for in these battles. One truly exposed their heart & soul to their foe. Without doing so you could not hope to understand or defeat them. Standing before Hoshi was a being who knew full well what Enduring brought to shinobi. This was a being who had no intention of enduring for any longer.

[Michi]

Akkukma did not sent his stuff or post this stuff within 5 days and Hoshi still has not posted an RP but he sent his actions in time. Neither of you made it within the time. I am going to complete the mod and hold onto it until Hoshi posts his in character post so I can b within the battle rules for this. If Hoshi has posted in character already Akkuma would have lost a fighting round. >_> Remember guys, ROE 2 days if you are actively posting elsewhere on the forum and 5 days if you are not posting anywhere but this thread.

 

[Shouyu Hoshi]

The fight continued the Youkai showed no restraint in easing up with its assault. Hoshi had to avoid what he could, if he his body so allowed himself to do so. A few times he was caught off guard wincing at the pain from his splintering bones and torn muscles. Truly his Hachimon nature was showing itself in a vibrant light. After being struck at losing a maintain of his camouflage slightly he stumbled and wove a set of hand seals. He bit his thumb drawing blood, and then slammed his palm into the floor.

“Summoning Jutsu!”

‘Tch! That did it! I’m using up life energy now.’ The boy thought to himself as a Water pentagram highlighted the arena floor. Transitioning from a different dimension, the thirty foot otter began to materialize and take form.

Mizu: “My, my my my. What a problem Master Shouyu. You should have called me earlier. You look like a pile of horse dung. Well, let’s get down to business.”

“Mind you, hes very strong and crafty.”

Hoshi and Mizu began to attack the two with raging combos. Akkuma tried to sap Hoshi’s energy but failed to do so this time. Mizu struck the Youkai with a whip of Water which formed into sword last minute. It formed a long sword Katana and the two jumped back gaining distance. They stance up, it was now a two on two battle.

“Whoever prevails only the future will tell Sir Akkuma. This fight will be the beginning.”

[Miroku Akkuma]

The Trickster Fox aimed to show his foes that he would not be taken so easily even when his energy was so depleted. Battle truly underway he knew if he kept Hoshi on the back foot it would only be a matter of time until the shinobi was dropped from his wounds. But he was not content with merely winning in such a manner no. He needed to give the people a show, more importantly he need the Leaders of the World to remember the type of man he was. Akkuma would not be satisfied with only beating his foe. No he wanted to destroy him, ensure that any future foes would know there would be no mercy for his foes. Dashing forward he began to attempt to steal the chakra from his foes. Hungry for the energy that would allow him to end this fight. Blow after blow was exchanged between the Masters & their summons.

Before the fray was over there would be multiples of each fighter within the arena. For the inexperienced it would be hard to tell which fighter was the real one until the fakes dispersed into clones. Those trained in the ways of such tricks were less easy to confuse & disorientate with such measures. Again he found himself impressed with the capabilities of the boy & his summon. Although he would not find himself suffering at the hands of them. With a final while he'd been unsuccessful in his attempts to draw what little energy his foe had Akkuma had been fortunate enough to severely deplete the reserves of Hoshi's summon. In turn restoring some of his own chakra, a thin sinister grin formed upon his face. Those many Fox tails flicking behind him as he slid to a halt from his assault, crimson eyes holding the youth within their malevolent gaze.

"The path I walk allows not for defeat..." his eyes slid to the spectator box where he saw those who'm he could not allow to see him defeated. "...you've been a worthy foe. I give you no more then twenty seconds...make good use of them. Remember even in defeat you must bring pride to your people." he'd say his own way of acknowledging & showing respect for the shinobi's ideals. Even if he did consider them foolish, after all the boy had the unwavering conviction that had earned such respect. Raising a single hand he would snap his fingers once & Jinkotsu would turn his attention away from their foes. His massive form moving towards his Master. Soon this would be ended but not before he'd demonstrated the difference in skill between himself & his foe.

[Miroku Akkuma]

Akkuma was surprised that neither of his foes seemed to make a move against him. Perhaps they were trying to devise a way to best sieze what little time they had. Perhaps it had been the severity of the wounds Hoshi had received that caused this brief halt in his attempts. Nonetheless he went ahead with his defensive measures to be sure it wasn't a ruse. To his surprise it was not with that realization he got on the offensive. Both himself & Jinkotsu focusing solely on the Hyuuga. Half of the time he believed the warrior had left had passed. Whether Hoshi knew it or not his time would soon come to pass. With that thought he slid to a halt the blue kitsune flames licking at his heels as he turned to face Hoshi ignoring his summon.

"Our time has come to pass Hoshi...I look forward to our next battle. For now though...I must make an example of you." with those words his chakra would lash out around him as he prepared to use the last of his chakra & his very life force to end this battle. Only ten seconds would remain & he would ensure that his foe remembered who he was that there would be no mercy should they ever meet on the opposite side of battle. A message not meant just for the young Kumogakurian he battled but any in the crowd who contemplated such notions. With that thought his hands would begin to fly into handseals. His next assault would end this the pain would be something he could endure.

Battle is Over.

Akkuma is the victor.

Notes:
Akkuma: You are not able to write conditionals stating when someone reaches x HP do this action because there is no way for you to IC know this.
Hoshi: remained in D stance, no actions were sent for this round and there is no IC post and it has been in excess of 5 days as per ROE.

 

[Michi]

In the stadium she watched the fight, her fingers rapped on top of the armrests. This fight was going on for too long. The Hachimon combatant was simply standing there like a mobile training dummy accepting the assaults of the mercenary buy-in. The edges of her thin, painted lips tugged downward. She took a deep breath, the arena stunk of testosterone and human filth, she never did care greatly for being in so close proximity to the pedestrian masses. She was enduring it of course, not because of idle curiosity but rather because she needed to see it... she needed to know. She looked down at her watch, this fight was approaching a minute and a half. An unheard of duration. Akkuma would continue to pummel Hoshi and his body would endure more than a reasonable human should. Perhaps there was a curiosity here after all -- the ability to push past ones limits, to redefine what human endurance actually means.

Still, there is a point where a man needs to stand down. If they are not willing to fight any longer, then why are they still standing? He was going to get himself killed if he kept this up. Blood matted his hair and soaked his clothes. His stance was wavering. She leaned forward in her chair, he should be unconscious and he was about to be dead. She would stand up, her hand on the partial wall. Her heel planted on the narrow flat space that separated the front row from the battle. "You said that nobody was going to die," she griped as her body tensed. Somehow Hoshi was avoiding more attacks than those that hit. This was utter madness that the Hachimon that seemed to no longer intend to fight to continue on. It was lunacy that the mercenary buy-in was continuing to fight as well, there would be blood on his hands once he earned his victory and would it be worth it. This was a waste of everyone's time to watch. It had been for some time because the victor in a one-sided fight is quite obvious. "This is assisted suicide," she complained as she bounded off the barrier wall into the arena.

She saw it, the next and final attack. Yes, she knew what was about to come with only moments warning but that was all she needed. Akkuma would land his final, killing blow and Hoshi's knees would buckle. When he hit the ground he would be dead. But he never hit the ground. She caught him, her hands aglow with an intense healing energy that was near blinding as she clutched onto his limp form. "Incompetents!" She shouted with a venom only an incensed woman could muster. Was she referring to Hoshi? Akkuma? The guards and staff? Who knows. Perhaps all of them but there was one thing that was obvious at this point, "this fight is now over. Miroku Akkuma is the victor!" She boomed and the crowed roared in response. People love tragedy but what they love more -- drama. She would not stay in this arena, she would drop the now conscious combatant onto the dusty floor. "Fool -- there is no honor or victory in an idle death." Strange words from a Duchess.
