Shinobi Legends Society

So...you made it through round one. Now what?

THis time you face off with a new foe. WE want to see how you RP being the host.

Fantasy League Bijuu contest:

Each of you will fight as if you have had the Ichibi sealed within you and the two week 'settling in grace period' is over. This is now your first challenge and you have to retain the host.

Like before, 10 posts per contestant.

In this round you will be displaying how you can defend yourself, destroy an enemy, cope with the relationship between yourself and the Bijuu and function with the additional powers you MAY receive should you become the host for Shukaku.

Saki walks through the sands on the outskirts of Sunagakure. The wind is blowing slightly, causing her hood to flutter gently as she walks, but after going to a relatively flatter portion of the area, she stops. Wiping her brow, she stands patiently while waiting for her opponent to show.

You gonna kill 'em?

She heard the maliciously joyful voice in her head; the voice of Shukaku. Saki chuckled to herself, No, we're not here to kill; only fight. We're here to test his abilities, as well as our own, but don't get too c.ocky or you'll make a fool out of us.

A loud, boisterous laugh erupted in her head, You get too soft and you'll get us killed.

Saki cracked her knuckles, and then cracked her neck a bit as she c.ocked her head from side to side. She was prepared to start off strong, right from the get go, and although Yukio was her friend, she wasn't going to let that stop her from using her most dangerous techniques. The sand was whipping up slightly around her body, as the automatic sand defense was active, ready to defend her from more obvious attacks (suna no tate), but she also had a thin layer of chakra infused sand on her body (suna no yoroi).


(sorry for the random periods in the word, but it keeps filtering out c.ock for obvious reasons)

Yukio saw Saki walking to the area he was crouching on; he was on top of a large sand hill. He was in between Saki and the Sun, so he didn't blame her for not seeing him. He saw her wipe her brow. Was the heat already getting to her? He chuckled. She seemed to be hard in thought; there was no doubt she was talking to her rendition of the Ichibi. Such a foul beast..

I thought you liked me, kid.

That must have been Shukaku talking. He, of course, wasn't used to the oddity. He felt like he was growing insane. Even his most deep and secretive thoughts were being read.

Well, fine! See if I give you a power boost this time! The tailed beast was growing a bit tired of the arrogant attitude, typical of an Uchiha. It didn't like being ignored. Although, Shukaku found Yukio very interesting. Almost as if he was a challenge to taint.

Yukio chuckled quietly. Don't worry. I have taken a liking to you. You keep me on my toes. He looked down at Saki in thought. I'm not sure if I'll need that boost of power; she doesn't know about my immunity to most poisons yet. But I certainly appreciate the effort to keep what existence you have intact, Shukaku. Yukio had chuckled again.

The demon scoffed. Your arrogance will lead you nowhere, boy. Take help when it is given. The beast created the same defenses as it had in Saki. A 'Suna no Tate' for outside-of-the-body protection, and 'Suna no Yoroi', a light armor of sand to protect from hard strikes.

Yukio sighed. He supposed the beast was giving him good advice. He drew out its power a bit more, making a string of handseals. He called out to Saki, "Yo. Get ready." He had to be at least a little bit fair. He finished his seal production. "Ninpō: Suna Shigure", Yukio had brought the demon chakra to rise a mass of sand from somewhere between himself and Saki. It rose up into the air, ready to create the 'Sand Shower'. It began to rain upon her ominously..

Shukaku had chuckled, Not bad.. Not bad at all.

Saki saw the sand shower coming at her and started to form a string of hand seals before saying, "Sunaton: Suna no Mayu."

A dome of sand quickly formed all around her due to the terrain, and below her feet, the sand hardened to the same chakra-reinforced density as the dome, just to prevent from any possible future ground attacks. The sand shower that Yukio sent merely sprinkled the dome, but it had little effect on the solid, absolute defense. A small eyeball formed outside of the sand dome, just so she can see what was going on, but she didn't really need it for what was next.

Hahaha! You're going to use that move already? Why in such a hurry to end it? I wanna play with him a bit before I tear him apart.

She formed more hand signs and began to gather her chakra.

I don't like toying with my opponents; I just want to get the job done, so are you going to help me or not?

The voice cackled in her head, Tch, fine fine...

She continued to gather chakra needed for her next technique, with Shukaku giving her some, but not all of his chakra. He didn't lend her as much as she had wanted because he wanted to play more, but it only meant that she had to pour a bit more of her own in. On the outside of the dome, the Suna no Mayu technique was growing, as sand from the surrounding desert was quickly adding layer after layer on top of the pre-existing one. Cacti, shrubbery, rocks, and other existing things in the environment also began to pull towards the dome in an interesting fashion. It was an odd thing to see, but it was also part of preparation for the next technique.

Yukio had already finished his preparation; it was that of the Sand Shower. His right hand took a weird position, while his left hand had maintained half of a 'Ram' kata. It was that of the Desert Coffin Technique. Usually, this would wrap the controlled sand around that of a human body, but his opponent was incased in their 'Absolute Defense'. Or so she had thought anyway. Yukio's right hand squeezed the air in Saki's direction in a blood lust-ful way. He murmured, "Sabaku Kyū.."

The direction of the sand accumulated from the Sand Shower took a dramatic, forceful turn. It shot around Saki's sand sphere. Yukio wasn't going to allow whatever Saki was planning. The sand under his chakra's possession was crushing and grinding against the Suna no Mayu. The jutsu was strong enough to destroy bones. It was also blocking any accumulation of sand inside the sphere, and perhaps blocking off chakra passage. This should restrain Saki greatly, but this was only set up for Yukio's next move. His right hand was beginning to get more tense.

Shukaku had frowned from inside of Yukio. Do you plan to perform Sabaku Suisō? You've only just mastered it, my boy. That takes up considerable amounts of chakra.

Yes; it also feeds you, doesn't it? The blood obtained?

Shukaku laughed very loudly; he made Yukio think he was audible from outside the body from the volume. The blood is delicious if you can pull that off! She seems to be going with fatal techniques, so I think I'll help you perform this one then. I wonder how the other version of myself will react within her. Shukaku burst into cackling from the thought. What a fun event!

Yukio shook his head. Were all bijū so intent on malice? Oh well; he would strengthen his hold over Saki, gathering all the chakra needed for the finisher.

(OoC: Lol, I see what you mean about the censoring. "Lust-ful" needs the hyphen.)

The third eye that was outside saw Yukio's attack as it began to grind against her Suna no Mayu. If she let it proceed any longer, it would begin to make the sand crack, but with her next technique, the addition of anything to her dome was welcoming. She had gathered enough chakra, and with Shukaku helping her out a little bit, she grinned before shouting, "Sunaton: Bakuhatsu Soudai!" (Grand Eruption)  

It was an "S"-ranked technique that required much chakra, but it had devastating results. With the random plants, rocks, but mostly sand that had previously gathered towards her Suna no Mayu, as well as the Suna no Mayu itself, the technique had a good amount of girth to it.

A giant explosion of massive proportions let loose, stemming straight from her Suna no Mayu and radiating out in all directions away from her. It was both infused with chakra, and all the sand, causing a giant shockwave of pure power and debris to erupt violently outwards with enough force to devastate the land, destroy buildings, and rip forests asunder in a one mile radius. However, due to Yukio's previous constricting technique, the blast radius was shortened in distance and slightly in intensity, but it still covered a good distance in spite of that, and would definitely prove to be an overbearing offensive attack to Yukio.

Her Suna no Mayu also would be dissolved after the attack had finished, and Yukio's sand would also be included in the blast, as they were all contributing to the extra loose debris nearby that helped fuel the blast.

Yukio, upon seeing the powerful explosion radiating from Saki's defense, took a different route with his already accumulated chakra; it would be useless to proceed with Sabaku Suisō. He performed more than seven or so kata a second; this would be the jutsu Yukio needed to direct his massive chakra supply into. "Shukaku no Tate.", Yukio had called out.

Only the hardest minerals from the ground sprouted up; and they were aided further by Yukio's condensing chakra. This had manifested in the Supreme Ultimate Defense, the Shield of Shukaku. A miniature (however not 'miniature' in the slightest) form of the Demon Shukaku had appeared directly infront of Yukio. Firmly rooted into the soil, it took the full brunt of the attack for Yukio. Yukio, would put his forearm over his eye to cover from any residual sand tearing at him. It slammed against his Suna no Yoroi. This was a powerful sandstorm taking place. Yukio's life had only been spared because of the Shukaku no Tate. And it seemed to have been at the last moment possible too. He could now hear Shukaku's laughter running rampant over his thoughts.

Very great use of my Supreme Ultimate Defense! Now, use the Supreme Ultimate Attack, boy! Go!

Yukio sighed and nodded. He hated all these intense, chakra draining moves of the Shukaku; but at least the demon was here to help. Or so he thought anyway. It seemed more as though the beast only wanted destruction. He assumed it wouldn't help Yukio in situations where it saw no benefit. He blinked for longer than usual. Still behind the rotting Shukaku statue, his Sharingan had activated with the opening of his eyelids. He reached onto the statue, instilling his chakras into it to control the super dense material once more.

Through the dust, Saki could see a rather large, slightly comical, sand form of the Shukaku bearing the brunt of her attack.

Clever boy. This is gonna be more interesting than I thought. Lemme out, I want to personally play with this kid!

Saki shook Shukaku's words from her mind, knowing full well what would happen if she let him completely run rampant. Yes, his help would be nice, but letting him have full control would be out of the question.

Shut it. We're playing by my rules for now.

She could hear the Ichibi grumble in her head with impatience.

Well you better come up with something better or you're just gonna lose without me!

Saki heard his words, but was trying to shake them off, because she knew they were just taunts trying to make her lose her cool. She grunted slightly before flashing a series of hand seals and shouts, "Santon: Kyougeki na Ryuusa!"  After a few moments, the sand beneath Yukio would eventually begin to turn to an acidic quicksand that would cause whomever standing atop it to get trapped, and eventually burn him with acid from the bottom up.

However, the acidic quicksand takes longer to form when the opponent is further away, so it hadn't formed completely yet; the sand was only just beginning to shift ever so slightly as it was beginning to transform. However, with the terrain already being sand, and the fact that sand is easily malleable and shifts enough as it is, she hoped that Yukio would not notice until it was too late.

Yukio's Sharingan eye darted about as he drew on the sand from the Shukaku no Tate. He was forming the 'Supreme Ultimate Attack', otherwise known as Shukaku no Hoko, the Halberd of Shukaku. He was just adding the finishing touches to the powerful weapon when his Sharingan reacted to something strange. He must have been standing in the same spot for too long! He couldn't have thought his enemy wouldn't have known where he was. There was a bit of movement in the sand it seemed. He wasn't going to fall for another Sand Jutsu! He gripped the Halberd of Shukaku and leapt over to more sessile sand; he was now to the left of the Shukaku statue in Saki's view. He looked back at moving sand quickly. It would now be bubbling with acid. He shuddered; it had seemed his Sharingan saved him. That was right! Saki worked with Santon as well.

Yukio wasted no time though. He had applied chakra to the soles of his feet and broke into a dash toward Saki. He was already moving at the speed of a typical Jōnin, but that wasn't anymore. His velocity was multiplying. In a matter of a second, the distance between himself and Saki was cut in half. A normal ninja traveling at this velocity would surely have the effect of 'tunnel vision'; but Yukio didn't because of his Sharingan. He was but a blur to Saki's vision, using tactical turns in his broken line toward her to confuse the girl.

Saki saw that from behind the Shukaku no Tate, Yukio lept to his left within moments, but had a halberd in his hand. She knew it all too well from its markings, but within moments, he was but a blur. It had seemed that he had indeed noticed the shifting sands. With him coming at her at an incredibly high speed, she decided she needed to act fast. She weaved a few simple hand signs and created three acid kage bunshins. They looked like regular kage bunshins, but if they were hit, instead of poofing away in a cloud of smoke, they would explode in a burst of highly searing and painful acid.

Stupid! You missed your chance! See what happens when I don't help you?

The voice in her head was seething in a fit of anger, but she was not completely ignoring his words. She knew Shukaku was right, but she wasn't about to let him destroy her confidence either.

Two of the four Sakis weaved a set of separate hand seals to use a jutsu in conjunction with each other for the offensive. One shouted "Fuuton: Koumu no Jutsu!"  while the other shouted "Fuuton: Suishinki!"

The first technique was the skilled fog technique, which was an acidic fog strong enough to partially melt even the bones of Susano'o, that burst forth from the Saki's mouth towards the general direction of where the blurs were coming from. The other technique acted like a propeller and basically caused the acidic fog to disperse at an incredibly rapid rate, making it cover a larger range in a shorter amount of time. It was a technique taught to her by Renji, and she knew it would definitely prove useful.

Since she couldn't see exactly where Yukio was coming from, she decided a wider ranged attack would prove effective, and since he was coming at her at such high speeds, it would most likely cause him to dash straight into it.

Yukio was only a couple seconds away from Saki before she had made the clones. They were reacting quickly, weaving kata. Yukio had two options in his own mind: evade or attack. Attacking would prove to be reaching almost a 100% certainty of a fatal victory. His Sharingan could see through her clones, and he could take what they would dispatch at this speed and strike Saki. The clones were just forming and making kata, and Yukio was getting closer and closer. But, in the end, he decided Saki was a comrade; she wasn't one to attack that severely.

However, at this speed, Yukio was not stopping soon. The clones seemed to be about to maneuver some strange element. The Santon. It was his last chance. He swung the almighty halberd.

Fool! What are you doing?! Is this the behavior of the Uchiha?!

Indeed, it wasn't. He had slammed the weapon against the ground to propel himself skyward. He had chosen the first of the dichotomy; and so he was far out of the range of the Santon technique with a good twenty meters in the air. He had actually left a crater in the ground! And there was a shockwave of the superhuman chakra he had put out. He got slightly dizzy in the air from that.. He studied the ground more; he was passing overhead of Saki. He gripped the Halberd. He was ready to throw the weapon at any time really.

Saki was amazed at how fast Yukio reacted to her acid kage bunshins; she was almost sure that the sharingan couldn't distinguish between them since they all shared the same chakra, but somehow he knew. He had almost inhumanly fast reactions, but instead of attacking, he jumped into the air. She was a little confused at first, but didn't waste time in forming more hand seals.

What a fool, he wasted his chance! Let's tear him apart!

Well are you going to help me out on this next attack or are you just going to complain again?

He chuckled maliciously, Tch, you talk too much...

Saki knew that he must have had a reason for changing his course so suddenly, but she didn't dwell too much on it. All she knew was that it gave her an opportunity to counterattack. After gathering her chakra, she shouted, "Fuuton: Daitoppa!" Shukaku, having grown impatient with the fight, surged a large amount of his chakra into the fuuton attack to help Saki. The blast of wind that came out was both gigantic in size, but also deadly in power. It was a highly condensed and chakra reinforced blast of air that went shooting towards Yukio with intense ferver, and the reason why the acid kage bunshins had jumped up earlier towards him, was so that on the way to him, they counted on the fact that they would get in the way of the blast.

Once the wind had hit them, they instantly burst back into acid from the impact and got swept up, becoming part of the massive wind blast, making it not only powerful in its strength, but also deadly with the acid. With this, the wind blast in itself packed enough punch to level an entire city thanks to the chakra boost that Shukaku gave her, and so she wondered how Yukio would counter this.

(OoC: About the Bunshin, http://leafninja.com/doujutsu.php . Use the find command on your computer to search for the word "bunshin". And the Sharingan would also allow those reactions. In case you were actually troubled by that. Also, when did your Bunshin jump after me? You didn't specify in the post that I saw.. I'll just treat it like you did..)

And, Yukio wouldn't be able to counter this one; but he could try. He was running low on chakra of his own; and he wasn't on a level with the Shukaku to draw out much more. He took an acrobatic swing in the air, applying chakra to the Halberd. This would make his throw all the more fast and powerful. He forcibly threw it through the air. It caught wind and tore through Saki's attack; and it was aimed directly at her.

That was all though. He began to gather Suiton in his right palm. This would be it for his advanced chakra functions. The swirling mass of water took shape quickly. But he had to focus. The blast from Saki would be maneuvering around the thrown halberd and right at him. He yelled in midair; "Hahonryū"!!" He had formed a condensed watery typhoon in his palm. It wasn't yet full power, but he had hoped it would do. He threw the jutsu in front of him to protect him, and it expanded. If all went right, the technique would suck up the wave of acid wind and carry it elsewhere. Yukio watched his typhoon set out to do its duty as he fell back toward the sands.

(OoC: Sorry, it's 4am right now and I'm switching between writing my paper and doing other club stuff too. I had them jump after I initially made hand seals in the first paragraph, but upon second read, I don't see it either, which is completely my fault. I apologize -.-" As for the bunshin, I'll send you more info in a pm)

Saki watched as he threw his halberd before her daitoppa approached him. She didn't think that it would penetrate through the intense gale of wind, so it caught her by surprise when it managed to slip through straight for her. However, her suna no tate moved to protect her from the incoming halberd, but it was not strong enough at all to completely protect her from the ultimate offense. The halberd struck the shield of sand and lost much of its momentum, but it managed to continue on through. From there, it as down to the Suna no Yoroi that she had activated from the very beginning to do its work.

The halberd's end hit her upper thigh and the skin cracked and chipped from the impact. The halberd managed to pierce her thigh, but not completely through. She grimaced in pain as her leg began to bleed. Since the halberd itself was so large, it would take some time for her to remove it. She formed a single kata and said "Sunaton: Suna Raishin." Some of the sand that was in the suna no tate flew into the air and came down as smaller pikes surrounding Yukio. They began to crackle and would eventually launch lightning at Yukio after a few moments.

She used that as a distraction for him as she grabbed at the heavy halberd's handle and began tugging at it to pull it out of her leg.

Yukio landed on the sand with a thud; to his horror, lightning-sand pikes were surrounding him. Their lightning, if released, would have pierced around his Suna no Tate and Suna no Yoroi. His skin would seem to be peeling off in sand. He sighed. Her jutsu was relentless. She seemed to have more stamina than even himself..

Are you giving up, boy?

Yukio scowled. He was taking sand needles out of his body; and he was bleeding from each one. He looked over and saw her picking up the halberd. "Yo, you know that's not a toy right?", Yukio had joked. He was analyzing her movements with his occular jutsu.

She continued tugging at the halberd until it finally came out. She threw the massive weapon to the floor as the section of her thigh continued to bleed a bit. Saki gritted her teeth, but looked at the ground and chuckled, "D-amn straight. That's a powerful weapon you used there."  

She looked at the halberd on the sand before thinking about her next phase of attack. Whether Yukio could sense it or not, she was starting to run low on chakra because although she specialized in ninjutsu and trained most every day to extend her chakra pool, she was using even more ninjutsu than she usually does. Having Shukaku was helping, but she didn't want to rely on him lest it get out of control.

Reaching into her pouch, she pulled out a couple of smoke bombs and threw them on the ground.  They exploded into a mass of grey smoke, masking her position to the naked eye. She made a single kata and summoned three doku kage bunshins, but she summoned them so they appeared in front of her in a line. She hoped by making that formation, if Yukio was looking at her through the smoke with the sharingan, it would appear as if it were one person. The doku kage bunshins would act similar to the acid ones, but instead of exploding into acid, they would explode into a poisonous gas that would have the ability to paralyze the enemy if inhaled.

All four of them, Saki and her group of doku kage bunshins, all burst forth from the smoke and fanned out in a wide position with a black sword drawn. It was one of her favorite weapons, and it was laced with a very powerful poison that also had the ability to paralyze if the blade connects.  They all ran at Yukio aiming to slash at either of his arms depending on which way they were coming from.

Yukio scoffed. He was studying the chakra applied to the familiar Dokuton element. The gas, he could take a few inhales; the blade, he couldn't afford to let near him. He did a clean flip backwards on the sand, doing six speedy kata in mid air. "Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu!!", Yukio incanted.

Yukio was most chakra efficient with this move; it had been hammered into him by his family at a young age. And it was a large and powerful C-Rank fire jutsu with overwhelming power in most situations. And, the 'Grand Fireball' would surely cover a large five meter diameter. The attack was aimed at the incoming clones and Saki together. He had seen that they didn't spread apart in their run, so this was viable.

If this had set Saki back, Yukio would pull out a kunai from his holster. He held a strange one-handed kata with his free hand. "Dokuton: Yūdoku Shi-ta.", came from his lips. He extended his tongue, licking the smooth of the blade he had brought to his mouth. A purple slime-like liquid oozed over the kunai. Yukio chuckled; he was most skilled with Toxins.

The four were running at full speed towards Yukio from their fanned out positions, but the emitted Goukakyuu no Jutsu was incredibly large. The two in the middle did not have enough time to go left, right, or jump up in time to escape the blast of the fire, so they were caught in the inferno, but they were two of the dokuton kage bunshins. They poofed away in an instant leaving clouds of purplish gas where they last stood, but they were too far from Yukio to even be inhaled or have any effect. The ones running on the outermost edges, the far left and far right, had dodged even further to the edge just enough to barely escape the blast in time.

Due to the dodge, they were even further apart now, and came in at Yukio in a pincer formation. They both swung their swords at the same time with breakneck speed, aiming for his arms (the one running on the left aiming for your right, and visa versa); one being the real Saki while the other the doku kage bunshin.

Yukio chuckled. He was sure Saki had blundered by going into close combat. From what he knew, his Taijutsu was superior to hers - even without the Sharingan. He shrunk into defensive stance when he saw them come from the left and right of his fire ball that burst into the sand. He readied his blade. Her movements were too predictable with his Sharingan.

Be wary, boy. She must have a plan.

Unbeknownst to Yukio, the Bunshin was Dokuton; unbeknownst to Saki, Yukio was immune to B-Rank or lower Dokuton Ninpō. Yukio had done a swift squat not too long before Saki closed in. He had gotten down low. He kicked off with his right leg, leaving his left foot firmly placed on the sand (as firm as that can be anyway..). This caused a leg sweeping motion. But Yukio was also striking with the kunai with the toxic ooze over it. He forced this move to be in one fast circle.

The Saki on the left, the first one to get hit by both the kick and the kunai strike, exploded into a poof of poisonous gas capable of paralyzation. However, much to Saki's surprise, Yukio didn't seem fazed in the slightest. As the swooping kick and the kunai came by at the same time, the Suna no Tate came up, but not fast enough to block both attacks. It rose from the ground as fast as it could react, but managed to block the kick. For the kunai, Saki had brought the blade in her right hand to clash with his own weapon and brought up her left forearm to brace the back of her blade from the impact. The sudden stop because of the locking of blades caused some of the ooze on Yukio's kunai to splash onto her clothing's shoulder and forearm sleeves, but she was not aware of what the repercussions would be.

Now's your chance!

The voice cackled in her head as Saki formed two, single-handed seals with her free left hand since she was only using her forearm part to brace the blade, and pulled down her mask before saying, "Santon: Tsuba no San!" From her mouth, she spit a large stream of highly corrosive and destructive acid aimed at Yukio's torso and neck. It was a short range technique, and a risk since she had to take off her mask to use it, but it was an incredibly powerful and potent acid attack.

Unfortunately, the poison's effect wouldn't work unless in the blood work of the victim. It would fell the nervous system of the enemy, putting most of their body numb if successful. Yukio had scoffed when he saw her attempt to form kata. At this range?! Without thinking, he would simply drive a forceful punch into Saki's unguarded gut. It would be enough force to send her flying.

Assuming this hit and she could remain focus on her Santon chakra and kata, Yukio would already be swerving to the right in a dive. His right arm would be forcibly chucking the aforementioned kunai at Saki. It was, perhaps possible for Saki to hit Yukio with her jutsu, but unlikely.

Yukio lied on the ground, panting. It seemed the match would be over either way. "Good match..", he murmured.

Edit: (Same to yew.)

(Done with the 10 posts. Well played Yukio, I had much fun. >w<b)

Very good match. I have my critique done but will wait until the other judges have reviewed this before posting our findings.

Ok...we are just gonna have to have each of you tested by a master as though you had the bijuu and see what occurs from there. All the judges are of such differing opinions that I find it hard to place one of you over the other. SO...

here are some things that most agree upon...

Leafninja.com is crap. Try refering yourself to the naruto Wiki in the future. And here is why...

The lightning sand needle thing? it is not used to attack with a raiton offensive. It is used to absorb the raiton attack of your opponent.

And the bunshin? Sharingan cannot tell the difference between a bunshin and the original due to the chakra being the same.

And the great mist acid thing is a KG boil release.

and as for the bijuu relationship?

Ichibi is a monster. Even Gaara after a life lone relationship did not have a bijuu he could just sit down and talk with. Shukaku is vile and basically the only one who has exhibited any real independant intelligence while he has taken over his host.  Although a very entertaining match, basically we were left with the impression that we were seeing old zoning buddies going at it. There was no blood lust in either one of you, and Shukaku is a bloodthirsty being.

Anyway...we are gonna have you fight Zenaku and if you live...then we will see. REmember...each time a host faces a challenger he faces his death. It is kill or be killed.

Understood. I wasn't sure; does the Sharingan control the Ichibi in the same way it does the Kyuubi? Something to consider. Saki and I also decided that, although the Sharingan wasn't able to tell which were the clones, my mind was. There was no smoke or anything to disguise herself.

And as for the fight w/Zenaku, will it be as if we had the Ichibi, or if we don't?

>>>

The Sharingan works with eye-contact; don't see how you can make eye contact with a sealed beast at all times to place it under some sort of hypnotism.

Not sure if I have any place to speak here, but when Naruto first encounters Sasuke in Shippuuden, you have to remember that Sasuke made the Kyuubi pretty much worthless to Naruto, at least while Sasuke was around.. Naruto was using the Kyuubi's chakra, as you could tell by his eyes, the Kyuubi marks on his face, and his nails, up until Sasuke grabbed the Kyuubi by the nose and made it explode into bubbles, when he randomly showed up in Naruto's subconscious..Just a thought..I mean, if the Sharingan can subdue the Kyuubi, why would it not be able to have that effect on Bijuu that have been stated to be weaker than the Kyuubi?

Again, if I'm overstepping boundaries, just tell me to shut my trap.

I understand your statement, but Naruto seemed unable to reawaken the Kyuubi until later. And hypnotism would be activated upon eye contact, that doesn't mean that eye contact has to be throughout. Such as when someone hypnotizes an animal and their Sharingan appears on the animal, or in Madara's case, the Kyuubi. The hypnosis is activated upon eye contact, nowhere does it state that you would have to sustain this eye contact. I do a massive amount of research on the Sharingan, learning new things each week..when I'm not dealing with the idiots I hire and fire at McDonalds..>>

Keep researching, then.

http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sasuke_uchiha


He entered Naruto's subconscious using his Sharingan and then made eye contact with the Kyuubi; he suppressed it. He didn't control it. Genjutsu, assuming this is a sort of branching from it, does not last very long. So, one would assume entering one's own subconscious and repeatedly applying the illusion would be required.

Well, I didn't mean without having to reuse the suppression ability or anything, I just that you were meaning that it wouldn't be possible at all. That's what I was referring to, and the length of the Genjutsu, or whatever it is, would be dependent on the user, I would assume. I wasn't saying that you could render a Bijuu useless forever in one shot, but I did think you were trying to say that you couldn't do it at all..

Miscommunication, I apologize! ><
