Last Rites (IO, Keito,P)

Yazu finished the long trip from the Mizukage chambers to the village gates with his captive in tow.  Yazu did not care how long it took, he wasn't doing anything better, however he made sure that he stayed behind Keito for the entirety of the journey.  Yazu would say nothing until they were about 100 meters from the Gate with the storm barrier raging above them. The only terrain to be found was an open grassy area surrounded by sand.  Not a tree or large rock in sight. Even if the boy tried starting conversation he would be met with a consistent cold shoulder.  Yazu would then stop, coming to a halt with his legs shoulder width apart.  The boy had his right arm touching his left shoulder with his left arm hanging beside him clenching his fist.
 
"Before you head off on your journey, you must prove yourself.  All kiri shinobi, at some point in their life, have had to fight to prove their worth, and as far as I am concerned you are not worthy of the task you were assigned."  Yazu would state openly and calmly to the boy.  Yazu of course, had a dream of power one that could only be achieved with certain materials, and now as luck would have it those materials were here directly before him, and Yazu if never called anything else would at least be called an opportunist.
 
"You will now show me, whether you can be relied upon to please the Lord Xyxer.  We will fight for our lives in this open field." Said the white haired boy as cool as can be, not one quiver or nerve showing through in his voice. "In the fashion of the bloody mist, there will be rules.  You may not use any jutsu whatsoever, I will also abstain from that.  The only thing you can use in this fight are ninja tools and weapons, and bloodline abilities.  You may use your sharingan, but you cannot use them to cast Genjutsu, and I will use my Earth Grudge fear but I will not summon any beasts or use them to cast jutsu.  Additionally, the fight will be assumed as a fight to the death, though we will each maintain the rite of mercy, allowing us to spare the loser's life if they so choose.  Do these guidelines sound fair to you, Keito Uchiha?"
 
After Yazu had finished laying out the rules, he would simply wait to see what Keito might respond with.

Yazu had apparently gotten distracted failing to face the very person he was talking to.  However that would be no issue since the young Uchiha would start the attack.  When the attack started Yazu would cease the day dreaming to face his attacker having heard the very loud clasps of the boy's weapon pouch. Yazu's dark eye's never stopped watching Keito from this point. As the boy would launch out three very slow traveling kunai.  As best as Yazu could gauge the relative speed of the three kunai lobbed forward at a speed of 10.  Just fast enough to supersede the boy's own run speed, since Keito would trail his own kunai.  Yazu would have no difficulty with the three pronged attack.  Moving with his quick nimble hands he would step slightly forward just enough to narrowly dodge any tricky actions Keito might make with the second and third Kunai aimed off to his left and right.  He would bring his right hand up across his body and put his finger through the loop on the tail of the kunai that was aimed for his heart catching it, after checking for explosive tags which he saw none.  Yazu the monster of the mist would nimbly twirl the kunai and release it back at the boy.  The timing of this was perfect, as Yazu was capable of releasing the kunai launched at himself just as Keito had reached the three meter mark, while the other two would dart past him harmlessly.  This would be point blank, and with Yazu's own throwing speed of 70 it would dart out of his right hand like a missile.  Yazu would have to bend his knees a bit to make the trajectory perfect given the height difference but he knew Keito would be unable to change momentum in time to stop the kunai from driving into the poor Uchiha's throat.  Yazu would then proceed to detach his left hand from his forearm using his unique bloodline and send it forward at a speed of 50, Yazu would have no difficulty moving it left or right if needed considering it wasn't moving moving maximum speed.  So IF the Uchiha managed to dodge the dart aimed for his throat Yazu would tweak the threads to match that boy's movement making sure that he connected. 
 
Yazu's right arm would fall on the shoulder of the left and apply a powerful anesthetic to help combat any pain he might feel from a block attempt, this action would be barely visible by the uchiha though he could if he chose, concentrate to see it and realize Yazu hadn't kept his word, though Yazu doubtedKeito could even block at all.  The launched hand would be aimed directly for the Uchiha's  stomach, hand open to penetrate the soft belly. He would be prepared for what might come next.

It would appear that Yazu the great shinobi he was had made a slight miscalculation in his battle strategy, so while moving his right hand up to catch the kunai that he had originally believed quite slow moving, it would connect to him before he could finish his original action.  That meant nothing in this context, as hitting Yazu's heart would be no different than hitting his leg or arm.  Especially since Yazu's body would reactively activate its own defense against the attack, as Yazu's entire body became black starting at his chest and spreading out.  With the earth spear becoming active at the time of connection the Health would equal 51 preventing the kunai from driving directly through his body and reaching his heart, though it would still be quite painful and the kunai would still be protruding from his chest.  It would be quite painful no doubt about that, but anyone can shrug off pain, especially since Yazu still had four times as many hearts as Keito running his system. And even if by some miscalculation this would make it to the heart which sat toward the back of his torso nestled in the fire mask, the remaining hearts would be nowhere near the kunai.  So Yazu' would fail to catch the kunai and would instead reroute his actions instead taking the hit from the kunai, but it would not knock him out or kill him, and allow him to defend from the boy.  So should this destroy the heart it should be stated that the only result would be a cracking and destroying of the fire mask and searing pain, which as stated could be shrugged off considering it was not a mortal wound.  (the only reason the masks ever fled the body when being destroyed was in the case of the jashin ritual)
 
Now that the catching business was handled, the moment he realized he couldn't catch it, which was right before it hit while the earth spear activated, he would move his hands at a speed of 55, forming a single tiger seal.  His right hand already in place in its attempt to catch and his left hand not needing to move far to reach the right.  This action would happen quicker than a blink.  He could see the boy Keito moving at maximum speed up to him hoping to finish him off, but just as the boy would get about 2 meters away well outside of reach of Yazu's head, the chakra would burst forth from Yazu, choosing to use the hand seals for this instance of the paralysis jutsu.   Even if the boy moved left, right , up, down, he would still be within range of Yazu's technique.  The boy would be tightly bound by what felt like steel bindings, holding both arms out wide and both legs halted also keeping his head still keeping his head still preventing all movement, provided Keito had less than 32 strength thanks to his mastery of the technique.  Without any pause in the action the moment the boy stopped and was paralyzed, Yazu would take a step forward and with his still enhanced Earth spear  right hand he would break right through the boy's chest and rip out his heart, with a strength of 56.  Yazu was highly disappointed that he couldn't beat the boy without using jutsu, but not so much that he would lose any sleep.
  Yazu would rip the kunai from his chest and place it in his belt pouch.  He would hold the heart up before the Uchiha's still active sharingan and say "You fought admirably, you will not be forgotten."  And would proceed to use Medical Nin to patch up his wound as he lifted the corpse and walked away from the gate back to his lab

Keito would survey the kunai continuing its trajectory towards the man before him. Of course it was tilting every now and then, due to the resistance of the air it was soaring through, to make it tilt slightly up and to Keito's left, thanks to the air currents of that day. However he saw as it continued its path, Yazu began to form his body as if he was becoming like a rock, turning darker, extremely dense and hard. This would work in Keito's favor, due to the substance at which the kunai will be clashing towards, it will hit at the correct point with the aid of the wind to ricochet the kunai upwards 80 degrees to Keito's left, or Yazu's right accompanied by the sound vibrations at which this takes place.(For reference for the degrees, look at the outer degrees of a protractor) This will coincidentally for Keito meet its new mark at Yazu's lower mid jaw, though due to the extra speed the kunai will gain thanks to the laws of physics in which a projectile that hits a hard surface causes a ricochet and makes the projectile move quicker, it will soar with higher speed then before. However due to the fact this kunai will now be 6 inches from its target(since it's now coming from Yazu's left pectoral area), the attack will be impossible to avoid or fight Agaisnt due to having to take notice of the kunai attack in time and reacting to such a thing, it would reach in less then half a second. The pierce will also meet no resistance whatsoever, due to the earth spear forming at Yazu's chest and spreading outwards, not reaching in time to cause any defense.


Keito would continue to watch the boy get punctured with his kunai from the lower jaw, and thanks to the force continue to drive up to his skull and straight through the brain, and continue its movements until sticking out of the top of his head. Having a complete hole through a brain will cause one to lose function of their body and enter a mental state which is minimal to the average intelligence, due to the hole and also the fact the person is to die regardless of any extra organs of sorts unless their was another brain to replace it. It would specifically be shooting through the temporal lobe which controls hearing, learning and feelings. Also the frontal lobe affecting thinking, memory, behavior and movement. And finally the parietal lobe, which houses language and touch. Thanks to the angle at which this Kunai is piercing. Keito would continue to see as the boy fell to his death, in absolute shock and unwilling to understand his surroundings or feel anything, right before Keito's feet. Though this would only be for an instant, as he died most likely by the time he fell to the ground. However, regardless if he was to somehow stay alive or not due to unknowing results of the brain injury, Keito would continue to slice off the head of Yazu with his handed kunai just in case to avoid any potential attacks the boy may have up his sleeve.

After discussion you posted as though the Kuna would ricochet off of my chest, but as per the rules, the Kuna would pentrate the chest like I said just not as deeply as without the earth spear.  so the wind and Kunai ricochet couldn't happen as I stated the Kuna was stuck in my chest.

Going to go through this from Keito's first post. If I seem rude, it's because I've been up for a good while and I'm running on caffeine on this point.

- Keito threw the kunai at Yazu as he began to run towards him, closing the five meter distance. 
- Yazu heard the clanking of the tools withing the weapon pouch and manipulated the timeline so that he could turn around before they were thrown. Afterwards, he caught one of the kunai (stating the speed it had traveled since it had none as of yet) and then tossed it back before firing his weird tentacle EGF hands at Keito.

That should have been it right there, that is where the timeline stood, and it's where Keito should have based his post after that off of. Then this happened.

- Jumping back to the post from before, Keito said the kunai traveled at 60 speed, and made it hit Yazu, by saying it had hit his left heart as he tried to catch it.
- Yazu took the hit, when he didn't have to, and then rolled with it, before offering a counter to that. 

The kunai should have soared right on passed Yazu (if we go on 60 speed), as he stepped in between the paths of the middle and another kunai. He stuck his finger out, attempting to catch it as it went by. At the most, you could probably get away with claiming a hit on his hand, but like I said, Yazu rolled with it and took a hit to the chest. 

- WE ONCE AGAIN, go to the first post that Keito made, which is the second timeline of his own actions, where he attempts to god mod the environment into changing the trajectory, before reflecting off of Yazu's body and into his head? The health would leave the kunai buried in Yazu's body, it wouldn't reflect off.

In my opinion, we revert back to Yazu's second post, where he stated the kunai moved at ten speed, as that is where the timeline stood. You can't use timelining to just change your actions all willy nilly.

Optionally, you can argue my post, (I'm rather receptive to well thought out arguments,) or you may ask for a second opinion.

Finally, and once more, I apologize if this comes off as rude.

Meh it's not really a big deal haha, all for fun either way. Keito dies in this topic being killed by Yazu, and Yazu gets all his stuff. At the end of the day this was all to have a bit of RPing fun and whatever so yeah Keito dies and blah blah blah o/ take it away from here Yazu.
