Constantly Improving (Open, No Kill, Training)

Gaignun was currently on a self assigned mission in making himself just as strong as he used to be. For now, he was only trying to return back to his former strength, so he was currently looking for some way to get stronger, and to do that he would have to face someone strong. He just need to improve. Gaignun was just sitting along the country borders and was waiting for someone to come by so he could challenge them and he would be engaging in combat whether they liked it or not. He just loves to fight and he was gonna fight today.

Suzaku walked quietly through the woods. He was currently heading back to Tengakure after taking a very…. Odd girl from Konohagakure back to her village. He was still slightly covered in small cuts and dirt after the little encounter but other than that he was perfectly fine. He continued walking until he spotted an odd man standing near the border. So he approached the man silently before asking a question

“Hello there. Who are you and why are you near the borders?”

Suzaku thought for a moment, this man looked familiar…… And he seemed very intimidating. Like he was going to just attack Suzaku at any minute.

Gaignun looked at the man who approached and he looked like he just got out of a scuffle. Gaignun smirked and stood up as he looked at the stranger. "The real question is who are you and why are you near the borders?" Gaignun replied as he smirked and got into a stance.

"You know what, I don't care. How about you just fight me. We can do introductions and that other crap later, let's just fight!" Gaignun said with a firece tone as he smiled and stomped the ground.

Suzaku listened as the stranger’s question right back at him. His question was a little dumb…. Regardless, he listened in to the rest of what the stranger had to say and was a little stunned. He loved the opportunity to fight and train but could he actually fight against this guy? He thought for a moment before finally coming to an answer

“Hmm….. I guess I could spare a few minutes for a little spar”

Suzaku then quickly activated his first version of his bijuu cloak, forming one tail on the cloak as he reached into his pouch and threw 3 kunai at the stranger’s direction. While simultaneously letting his bijuu arm fly out and reach at the stranger. Trying to grab him.

Spoiler:

Gaignun smiled and looked at the stranger, as he agreed to the spar between the two. Gaignun got excited as he looked and saw him put his hand in his pouch. So he prepared for any kind of projectiles being thrown in his direction. Gaignun got ready as he saw them fly toward his direction Gaignun dived out the way of the incoming kunai, he drew a kunai out of his and deflected the incoming kunai as he saw the arm reach out toward him he rose his arm as he was grabbed. "Damn!"

Suzaku watched as he grabbed the stranger. He raised him up and slammed him into the ground. Most likely injuring the strangers side and head. He then added another tail to add to his power as he let the stranger go running towards him and punching him in the dead center of the chest. Wondering if he was going a bit too far and if this stranger was as strong as he seemed. He seemed to just be holding back currently as anyone could’ve dodged that chakra arm. And he just merely deflected the kunai when he had the perfect chance to dodge and launch his own projectile or jutsu at him. Suzaku quickly erased his thoughts and pulled out a kunai,putting it to the strangers throat

“Done already friend?”

As soon as the man had raised him in the air. Gaignun tossed his kunai the best he could at the man with his raised arm that was free. If Gaignun hit the ground as he started to cough after losing his breath. He looked up at the stranger as he smirked and made a kitchen knife of chakra and clashed it with his opponent and slowly start to stand up. "I'm not done just yet.... It's just starting, you caught me off guard..."

Suzaku winced as he felt a slight pain go through his cheek. A kunai? How? This man was fast….. And he was just playing around right now. He listened to what the stranger had to say and kept his kunai on the strangers chakra knife. So he could manipulate chakra and shape it into weapons eh? Well this was definitely going to be interesting. He jumped off the stranger and threw a couple shuriken. Sending his arms out to scratch at the stranger and cause him to get distracted. Allowing Suzaku to think of a strategy. What could he do though…… This man was obviously fast enough to avoid his weapons and was able to use high ranked techniques. And able to manipulate his chakra into the shape of weapons, Suzaku could only preform a few basic academy jutsu and use some of his bijuu cloak. What else could he do…….. So he focused on the bijuu chakra, trying to do what he did last time and summon a new bijuu tail. He focused and focused and moments later a third tail appeared. Causing Suzaku to feel stronger and more powerful. He had finally mastered the first version of the bijuu cloak.

“Riiiiiight. I “caught you off guard”.”

Suzaku then smirked as he waited to see if the stranger would kill him, or back down.

Gaignun looked at the new approaching ninja tools as he smirked and blocked them with the chakra knife. Gaignun then saw as the giant arm came out he put his arm in front of him and it was scratched and he looked forward. "Ouch, is that all you got. Come fight me like a man hand to hand." Gaignun shouted as he saw him try to keep distance and was just abusing the power of this little stretchy chakra aura or whatever. "I've had enough time to get serious." Gaignun said as he looked forward and just waited in a serious defensive stance, waiting for his opponent to approach him at any time for some type of offenssive barrage, he was waiting for the perfect time to counter attack him.

WC:502

She nearly used up all her chakra at a single shot when she could detect a figure coming in her direction and saw the where could be sat. He seems bored to her but continues to be on guard for quite some boring time even though she was guessing to be ignored for her puny strength. She perseveres attempting to surpass her chakra limits by some point of time. As soon as the man started getting up and down for a bit, he showed a glimpse of is stance. This shoveled some form of fear to her as she feels the need to keep her current status by now. She is expecting a combat scene anytime from now. She nearly blew her cover when sets of footsteps were heard. As it got nearer, she could figured that a large party was merely passing, given her the relief needed either ways. This followed by more party ranging of sizes that tested her cover. A horse nearly paralyzed her as its hoof landed right in front of her, testing her composure. Just minutes later the blunt point of a spear touched her, saving her the unnecessary cut. Close calls continued for a few intervals of parties until only another pair of footsteps makes its way closer. If she could pant a little, she could be doing that by now. This is when the sounds of footsteps changed and conversations were heard as it seems to her that a fight finally started. She wanted to utilize her sight to observe.

That was a while ago.

A good display from the 2 fighters saw herself no chance to field any strength in the fight. It has been a while since she saw a sparring at this level since the decimation of her clan. Not forgetting her current form, she continues to maintain her current distance and form. Being sited on sure is a challenge, thankfully it doesn't come to blows for me. She thought in her mind since the time when she got brushed by someone strong with his butt. She is feeling the bits of closing sides mentally by now.
