[You still should have seen them IC to know they are rasengan and chidori. How would you know otherwise ?]

Umtari was expecting a bit more of a conversation before the shots started flying but who was he to question his new instructor? Being at the end of the trio of attacks Umtari had the luxury of having more time to react than his colleagues. The thing that caught his eye was the strange key like sword being thrown up into the air. Umtari could have spent a while questioning the design of the thing but instead he kept his mind on the battle and acted. The purpose of throwing the blade up there was not immediately obvious to Umtari, perhaps it would explode, home in after something, perhaps it was a distraction, who knew. Whatever the purpose though it had to have one and Umtari instinctively wanted to interfere with that purpose.

Walking backwards whilst bracing his crossbow to his shoulder Umtari fired on the blade at the height of its ascent. So long as the shot connected successfully it would, at a minimum, send the weapon cartwheeling off course and and into the trees roughly in the direction Umtari was facing. Depending on how the weapon was constructed it might even cause some damage, after all the crossbow was a powerful one and was designed to penetrate armour.

Should Raito call off his attack on Umtari in a bid to instead recover the weapon or be delayed by anything else then Umtari would be able to successfully reach the cover of the trees and rapidly fade from view. Even his chakra signature would vanish. If however, Raito ignored the weapon and continued his attack in some other way or preformed some other action then Umtari may have to resort to a different action.

Assuming Umtari was able to slip away then he would remain hidden but able to view Noroi and Raito from a branch some twenty meters away, squatting in amongst the leaves. From here Umtari could intercede if Noroi’s counterattack backfired.

Raito then jumped over Noroi as he saw the blade heading for his sword, the Chidori then extended into a blade and hit the blade away, Raito was lucky that time because the move that Raito was about to be hit with was the Rasengan, Raito knew about this move since he had studied it for a while but never got the chance to learn it or even master it, he then looked at the new team member by the name of Umtari and sent a gaze towards him as he made a break for the trees, "heheh Asshole" said Raito as he activated the Raven Style and went after him, Raito was much faster than the boy and would easily catch him, but when he reached the trees the boy was nowhere in site, "Coward.." said Raito as he turned around and looked at the other two, "Lets continue..." said Raito as he ran towards his sword and leaped into the air as he grabbed the key blade and shoved it back into the scroll as he took out a bigger more punishing sword, this sword went by the name of the Buster Sword, it was one of the toughest swords in Konoha, it had clashed with Haru's Deca Force and had survived, these swords were Yamaki Clan Weapons, and he had the last set of the Buster Weapons at his disposal, he was ready to take on the two as he landed and had the sword in his hand and was in a fighting stance and was ready for anything, he then got a better idea as he put his sword on his back and preformed a Chidori in both his hands, he then slammed them together and there was a huge explosion, you would have to be in the Village to dodge this and that was impossible from here because all trees and people standing in this Jutsu's way would be shocked or even damaged badly and won't be able to move for sometime, he made sure that the jutsu would only hit the trees around him and avoid Noroi and Shuuhei, he was just aiming to get the coward out of the trees.

Noroi was disappointed of himself as he failed hitting Raito with the rasengan. "I guess knowing some jutsu will never be enough." thought Noroi "I'm weak , I'm slow , I'm not good enough to land a hit on Raito. And I still have no idea how much stronger Shuuhei became or how strong Umtari is...". He realised that Umtari was nowhere around as Raito started searching for him. He thought "this is the time I will land a hit." , but after seeing Raito manipulate lightning chakra with his both hands , he really lost his hope to do anything against Raito. He remembered the promise he gave himself. He was going to try harder and harder , he wasn't going to give up until he became the powerful ninja he dreamed to be. He wasn't going to give up trying , he wasn't going to give up training until he had surpassed a certain man. So , he got his motivation back on as Raito used his jutsu. Noroi was pushed back by the effect but it seemed the jutsu didn't harm him or Shuuhei. "He must have done this to hit Umtari." thought Noroi "But isn't it too much for a new student , who didn't even know Raito's chakra nature of how serious he was when it was about fights ?".

Seeing he had failed hitting Raito with rasengan and now Raito was standing right in front of him and just used a powerful jutsu , Noroi decided to try his second most powerful jutsu. Noroi knew it was a big risk since he didn't have many chakra left after failing with the rasengan , but it was worth a try. Raito wouldn't kill him anyway. Or so he thought. After doing several hand seals , Noroi used "Wind Release Stream" to blow Raito away to the forest , hoping he would at least hit a tree or something , making it easier for Shuuhei to land a hit on him. It seemed like Noroi wouldn't be able to assisst his teammates more after doing this technique. He would be low on chakra , making him unable to use any of his jutsu. He really hoped the jutsu hit.

Shuuhei stayed in a defensive stance, watching all that occured as he gaved a sigh. He wanted Noroi to land a blow against Raito, seeing as his technique appeared to be pretty powerful. Looking up into the sky, he saw the arrow head towards the key-blade. Watching as Raito made sure that it was knock off into the trees. His gaze then switch over to Raito, whom now has summoned a buster blade, so it seem. Though Shuuhei was not sure, he was keen on blades, but not hundred percent when it comes to what they are. He estimates by the apearence and size that it is something he has read before in books.

Now that he thought of it, he needed to start reading up more on techniques, like the two Noroi and Raito used. They appeared familiar, in a aspect. Maybe being something he has read before, but he was un-sure. Looking off towards where Umtari was, he saw that he vanished. Looking about, he could not get a lock on where he was, he wondered if the boy ran from the fight. Though he doubt it, he guess that he decided to go high so he could get a better aim with his bow and arrow. Though Shuuhei was not sure, he is just going off by pure assumption. As Raito headed off towards the trees, creating two of the lightning technique he used against Noroi, Shuuhei jump some feet foward. Seeing as he was closest to Umtari and did not want to get caught in the cross fire.

Landing, he was now closer to Noroi, his gaze staying on Raito as he attack the tree. He had no idea what Raito was doing, but he knew it was a perfect chance to attack. Though he did not really want to waste chakra. That is when he look over to Noroi, who just used another technique. One that Shuuhei was not familiar with. Though he estimated it to lower Noroi's chakra some more, he guess Noroi was trying to create a opening. To which where Shuuhei could make a move. Reaching into his ninja pouch as he pulled out a kunai and explosive tagged. Wrapping it around the handles as he spun it around his index finger. Grasping the handle as he waited for a opening, throwing the kunai as the gale of wind already passed. Having the kunai follow the direction as he estimated it to explode when it is close to Raito. Probaly when its around five to ten inches from him. "Lets hope this work, though i doubt it, he has also gotten stronger. Which is a bummer, i would rather have him be the same level he was before. Though i don't think it would be much of a difference. There is that rumor about....." he stated in thought as he paused and decided to pay attention to the battle at hand.

Umtari was always slightly annoyed whenever his shots got interfered with, but he drew some comfort from the fact that it seemed to have had taken a bolt of lightning to prevent his bolt connecting. If he could keep that exchange rate up he was confident Raito would tire before he did, despite Raito’s inevitable large reserves. Umtari was also slightly pleased that he managed to slip away from Raito and the accusation of cowardice rolled of Umtari like water off a ducks back. He had accusations like that thrown at him all the time, in his view he was just being smart.

From his vantage point Umtari could see Raito catch the original blade, put it away and draw out a new one. Assuming that this man would only escalate things rather than tone them down Umtari came to the conclusion that this weapon was more dangerous than the previous one, though just how much more dangerous was unknown. Believing for a few moments that he was about to launch an attack with the blade against the two enemies with known locations Umtari continued to squat there and await an opportune moment to intervene. His plan was to stay here and stall Raito’s attacks by launching interrupting shots or to try and bring Raito down when he left exploitable openings.

Raito however, evidently had different plans. When Raito started to put the sword away Umtari knew that Raito had changed his strategy. Why would he summon a sword only to stow it away? The sword meant he had originally planned for a toe to toe fight and that was only plausible against enemies you knew the location of. Umtari knew Raito had to be at least vaguely clever, how else could he have risen to his position? So he doubted the man had formed one plan against a target, then changed his mind without provocation and resorted to a different plan. It was much more likely he had changed targets and that meant Umtari was up next.

Umtari knew he was hidden, a conventionally aimed attack stood very little chance of hitting him and most homing attacks would be useless since they often went for chakra signatures, which Umtari was hiding. This meant the likely attack was some big explosion or simillar attack. This Umtari wanted to prevent. He had worked this out just as the chidori were starting to be summoned. He was appreciative of Noroi’s efforts. The sudden burst of wind might stagger Raito or break his concentration before the jutsu could be properly used. However, Umtari did not want to rely on that.

So, swiftly reaching into a pouch he drew out a single arrow from a magazine and then removed the arrow already in the flight grove. Umtari was familiar enough with his own gear that he could do this by touch, so he could keep looking at Raito. Taking advantage of this Umtari relaxed his chakra suppression and used the temporary paralysis jutsu. This technique, when used against someone of equivalent power, could paralyse them for a little while. When used against someone of noticeably superior power the effects were reduced. In this case it might result in a very short period of physical and chakra based paralysis, say a second or two, it might just make him sluggish, it might stagger or slow the build-up of chakra necessary for Raito to use his jutsu. Any of these things were better than nothing. Umtari was clawing at every moment he had. Umtari was confident that the plan he had in mind he could execute without the use of this jutsu, but he still used it in order to buy himself some safety time and make the optimal result of his plan more likely.

Bracing his crossbow against his shoulder he fired, almost immediately the bolt seemed to veer off course and weave about. When it emerged from the trees it came from a direction Umtari was not in. The bolt hurtled towards Raito, still weaving side to side, up and down, all to make intercepting it harder it would even try to follow Raito should he dodge. The bolt, should it hit, would smash into Raito’s stomach. The moment of contact, so long as all went well, would be just before Raito could use his jutsu. It seemed Raito was being significantly more lethal than most people would be in a duel, so now Umtari was being more aggressive as well. Umtari was confident that Raito was not going to die, but if everything went as either Umtari planed or as Umtari predicted they might actually happen then it might result in a visit to the hospital afterwards.

If his plan completely failed and the jutsu still went off then Umtari would indeed be forced out of his current cover but he waited to see the result of his shot before he did that.

Raito was blown back by the gale and was sent flying towards the trees, he then landed on his feet and then through the corner of his eyes he saw an arrow going towards him, he then felt his body becoming slower by the second, the arrow was also getting closer, so what Raito did was turn his back towards the arrow and it would hit the sword and go away, his whole body then stiffened and couldn't move at all the arrow bounced of his sword and then exploded, Raito then flew into the tree and the kunai just missed him, he then got up with a smile on his face, "Well Done" said Raito with a smile and about to continue, "so how about we take this to the next level..." said Raito as red chakra began to cover his body and wings grew out of his back, this was where Raito was going to test his team.

Noroi was aware the Wind Release Stream would be the last jutsu he would use until the end of this spar. He was happy to be able to blow Raito back a little bit , although he didn't get hurt by the jutsu. Noroi saw that Umtari was making his move. Seeing Raito was able to dodge his arrow so easily , he thought Raito wasn't any slower than how he was at the beginning of the spar. That made Noroi feel weaker since he was becoming more and more tired every time whether him or Raito made a move. Noroi decided to calm dawn and try ro match up with Raito , hoping Shuuhei will help him. He decided to go taijutsu or kenjutsu on Raito. So , he felt frustrated after seeing that Raito was using a cloak-typed jutsu.

"Not like this..." thought Noroi as he shouted "Come on ! That's cheating!!!" as he realised he didn't have enough chakra to use his bloodline. "Damn , I'm pretty low on chakra... What can I do ? Raito is using a cloak-typed jutsu ... That cloak looks like it obviously gives strength and speed boost , as I can't say anything about his energy or chakra... If I had enough chakra I could have used my Kekkei Genkai and maybe I would have been able to match up with Raito , at least I would be a little faster and stronger..."
