The Naughty Kage's Snow Globe[Hunter]

Spoiler:

Transported to someplace completely new, Kizmaru had no idea where he was this time around. He was some place familiar but at the same, someplace unfamiliar. Currently placed at the south end of the globe, a heavy blizzard had been raging recently dampening everybody's vision, reducing them to only being able to perceive creatures, places and things within ten meters of their sight without the use of techniques. This would prove to be a slight problem for him but nothing that would hinder him too greatly. He was in possession of the Sharingan after all and that was more than enough to spot any would be threats. After he had accepted the ominous voice's request for help, he was thrown into this area without a word of warning as if it wasn't the Holly Kage's doing this time around. He could only hope that Keita would have been taken in with him or things would get hairy without him. Alas, he figured he'd check out what he currently had on him. Of course, the increased weight resting on the top of his furnace would be his companion, Ram. Ram was fastened on the furnace mainly to keep itself warm from the blizzard going on, facing the opposite direction of Kizmaru as it was currently resting its back on his armor. 

This was fine since it was currently on and absorbing water vapors from the air in order to fuel its mechanic capabilities. Aside from wearing Joki no Yoroi, he had his normal attire underneath the armor consisting of a yellow button down shirt and navy blue pants. Aside from that, he had two weapon pouches attached to the hips of the armor where he had all of his consumables and projectiles in case he would have need for them. Both of his Katana were fastened at the left and the right sides of his waist for ease of access. Folding his arms, Kizmaru had no choice but to wait for something to be done about his current predicament. He refrained from setting up the field the way he would have liked to as he would need Keita to do something first. Instead, he surveyed the area he could make out. Squinting a bit, Kizmaru's eyes began to change shape and color, revealing a crimson red dojutsu. It was the Three Tomoe Sharingan he had acquired and he figured even if he couldn't see through the blizzard normally, he would at least be able to discern signatures in the distance as if he was looking at people normally. Large trees were scarcely placed around the area he could see that were as large as up to twenty meters tall and six meters thick.

Keita felt the now familiar sensation of being transported via some sort of space time jutsu, and was suddenly in a large field that was covered in a snow storm. It seemed like the snow storm was constant, but even so, it seemed that the snow on the ground was not very thick, simply around six inches or so, and left a satisfying crunch under his feet. Keita was far better prepared for this time around being transported, as he was ready for the mission at hand. He and Kizmaru had discussed a bit of their plan last night, and now the time had come to actually do the deed, which Keita was actually excited for, as he had never sparred against Kizmaru, at least not seriously, and this time he would get the chance, sort of. The doppelganger would not have the same tactics, and they had done some sort of plan before hand, so this was not the full thing, but Keita assumed that he would still be very dangerous, so a certain level of caution was already born within his mind. Keita glanced around and noticed that he could barely see around ten meters in front of him, and to his left, there he had seen Kizmaru. This person did not immediately attack him, so it was safe to assume that he was the person that he was transported here with, and Keita walked near him and he would nod when the other acknowledged his presence. Keita took a small amount of time to jog around them a bit in a ten meter or so radius before returning back to Kizmaru's side. While he was running, he had seen nothing but snow until he had run to the south, in which he saw a strange glass like material that prevented him from moving anymore, so it was easy to assume that it was the side of the dome, and that they were on the edge. 

After Keita gathered his surroundings, he still wanted to do a thorough check on himself, making sure that he had the weapon pouches on him, and that his armor was covering his entire body, including his face. He had pulled the face mask that came with the armor down just for this reason, and so he then realized that he was completely ready, before glancing back at the wall and towards the center of the dome, ascertaining their bearing. If they stood opposite the wall, they would then be pointed towards the center, which if the mission that he had read was accurate, would mean that exactly twenty five meters away from the wall was the house. Keita would take a mental note of this so that he would always know where he was in the globe. When he got back to Kizmaru, he would then tell him what he found out. "Kiz, the wall is about 5 meters behind us, meaning the house is exactly twenty meters in front of us in that direction." Keita then pointed towards the center of the snow globe, towards the house, although he could not see it with his eyes. "Although this doesn't mean much in terms of our opponent, knowing the exact dimensions when we're actually in here is better than simply reading." Keita advised his friend, although he knew that Kizmaru had a lot more combat experience than he did, Keita was still confident in his abilities as a strategist. He was still thinking on what they could do to set the stage and give themselves another advantage, but they had to wait a while until Kizmaru's sharingan or chakra sensing revealed that the enemy was near so that they could proceed with their plan. Keita was also almost always holding his hands together and looking around, just in case he needed to perform them at a moment's notice.

[GLHF]
Evil Incarnate, the master of the naughty, the reaper of the damned, and sworn enemy of the Hollykage. The naughtykage had been watching for long enough and had deemed these two souls worthy of becoming sustenance for the Naughtykages ever growing tastes. The snowglobe was ready and now it was time for the starving naughtykage to feast.

The Naughtykage thought it would be good fun to take the form of a rather special being. Large horns would grow out this hairy head. With the hands of a human, the feet of the goat, and the head of something different altogether. The Naughtykage was ready to unleash his power against these mortal fools. Starting inside the house at the center the snowglobe the main act was about to begin.

As soon as Kizmaru entered into the snowglobe so too did the Naughtykage and the power of the Snowglobes came into effect. He could feel this powerful energy enhance his abilities to heights that the abomination had never felt before. Now that this creature had had a taste of what was coming his way it was time for him to prepare for the main course. The Naughtykage could could feel this man's senju body along with the power of sharingan coming online. His naked but hairy skin would become covered with a beautiful armor set that appeared to warm up his body. A wonderful addition to this battle.  



“Delicious… the power of the rinnegan so close to being achieved in this one.” The goat man would think to himself. Being a man born from Black Zetsu he had extensive knowledge on all of the man's techniques right off the bat. He noticed that this one had also taken the time to have seals placed on him to enhance their abilities and one that appeared to be some sort of hindrance to the man's chakra network.

“A feeble attempt to use my powers against me. The Hollykage must have told them about me. No matter, this specimen has many tools.” The hollykage would continue to think to himself.

The transformation for the hollykage to gain the abilities of Kizmaru would only take a moment, just as his comrade arrived. Inside the walls the Naughtykage would know that the fight would begin shortly but for now he would sit down to take advantage of this canvas’s unique ability to gather sage energy.

Using this time to gather his energy the abomination would wait for the two to reveal themselves. He was sure they had a plan but this body could take whatever they threw at him. Soon, soon he would taste their delicious chakra.

Now that he confirmed his partner Keita was present, Kizmaru could focus on the battle to come. Before it got to that point however, Kizmaru noticed Keita had began to survey the area around him which was pretty helpful as he himself wanted to look around and spot the creature. At first he couldn't spot anything so he continued to scan the area. After scanning the area, he had no luck on finding the whereabouts of said creature. After that Keita had paced back towards him in order to inform him of the current state around them. According to him, they have been indeed transported into the snow globe and they were currently five meters away from the wall that separates them from the outside world. That explained why this place felt familiar and at the same time it didn't. The second important piece of information was the house they were informed about was only twenty meters ahead of them and this means Kizmaru knew the exact location to strike. Trying once more, Kizmaru focused his sharingan's vision straight ahead in the direction of where Keita had said the house was. There in the distance, exactly twenty meters away was a person or thing's chakra signature with an assortment of colors to signify it was indeed the opponent they would have to slay. Although he couldn't exactly see the opponent's figure, he could see their chakra outline and that was good enough for him.

"Alright Keita, I've spotted the enemy. They are indeed twenty meters ahead like you said. Although I can't see him through the blizzard, I can see a chakra signature with these eyes of mine. Now would be a good time to undo the seal to see if the plan was successful," Kizmaru had instructed to Keita. As soon as he finished saying these words, he figured before he advanced any further, he'd take a seat in the snow, closing his eyes to meditate a little bit in order to gather up the nature energy around him. In doing so, his sharingan had shut off which was fine as it wasn't required now that he knew his enemy's general location. He figured he'd gather some nature stacks even if he was currently cut off to entering sage mode because of preparations done before accepting the nature of this quest. Ram continued to relax on his back, somewhat withdrawn into his shell for warmth but remaining vigilant in case there was something that could attack them from his companion's rear. Continuing to gather chakra, the furnace in his armor made a 'whirrrr' sound as it absorbed water vapors from the air. Kizmaru decided to hasten this process by converting his own chakra into energy the his  Jōki no Yoroi could utilize.

Spoiler:

Keita looked on at the snow storm that was ravaging the area, and actually remembered that this was a recreation of a small toy that people would give each other for the holiday seasons, and then forget about them entirely the rest of the year. He got to thinking that this Hollykage was either very eccentric or somehow sadistic, but then again most of the people in this world would have some sort of strange quirks about them. As he was thinking this and getting ready for their plan, he had heard his team mate confirming the existence of the entity they were going to face that was in the house ahead of them. At least, Keita assumed that it was in the house, as Kiz said that it was twenty meters ahead of them, which would be the house. With a quick flip of his wrist, Keita touched his hand to the forehead of his partner, as blue flames lit up on his finger tips and instantly broke the five element seal that was placed on Kizmaru before this all happened. His friend Kiz was now free of all burden, and that was the entire reason he was there, but Keita could still attempt to help in other ways. Keita quickly walked a few steps forward while performing hand seals rapidly. After performing six hand seals, he immediately sent his chakra into the ground five meters in front of him, which was ten meters away from the front of the house. A large pool of muck and mud would rapidly form at that location, and immediately spread twenty meters outwards towards the house, making the house completely surrounded by the sticky mud and muck.

The back of the house would be free of the muck and mud, as the technique could not make the house centered within the technique, this would still make at least five meters around the sides of the house a great hazard for the creature within, while the front of the house was even worse. Since Keita and Kiz were facing the front door of the house, there would be a full ten meters in front of the house that was covered in this adhesive substance, which would make exiting the house in short order extremely difficult, at least for a while, unless the creature was confident enough to escape the muck. Keita would still be on the lookout for anything that would come his way. He was definitely on high alert, standing still while taking in his surroundings, as he was not only slightly weaker in the sensory department in terms of figuring out where the target was, there was the fact that if he had indeed copied the attributes of his friend Kiz, he would also have the silent killing technique, much like Keita himself did as well. All three of them having the technique that would make them untraceable by normal means other than sight was a problem, especially because out of the three of them, Keita was the only one without access to chakra vision. He was being extra careful, ready at a moment's notice to form more hand seals.

Spoiler:

The great nuisance of the Hollykage would gather this powerful natural energy to where he was able to fully feel its effects. The Naughtykages great power would now hold no bounds now that he had both sage jutsu and the Sharingan at his fingertips. He only got to taste it on very rare occasions and he salivated at the thought of what was to come. He wanted to savor this unique chakra flavor but he knew once this man was destroyed the whole of his being would become his forever. The Naughtykage would open his eyes as the thick muck was beginning to pour into the house. He knew what it was: a vile ichor meant to ensnare the beast so that he couldn’t escape. While the Naughtykage was barely out of range at the back of the house the naughtykage would execute his foul ploy. The specimen had access to pure sage mode, which in turn amplified the Naughtykages physical features to become more feral in appearance. His eye would begin to appear a bright crimson color that spun into the Mangekyou. As soon as it activated his eye would reveal the location of Kizmaru and Keita, the same way that their Sharingan did the Naughtykage, and see that one figure (Keita) was about 20 meters away from his location. The other figure was a bit behind (but within 5 meters of the other figure). Simultaneously a plum of steam would begin to emit from the Naughtykage’s back, charging this armor set to be used for a variety of uses.

“Useful gifts.” the evil man would think to himself. While remaining seated the Naughtykage would weave a series of hand signs: Tiger, Dragon, Rabbit, Monkey, Ram, Snake in rapid succession right as the swamp was entering into the house. With the final hand sign being held the Naughtykage would stay in place as the ground around him and within the snow globe began to shake. With the amplification of Sage Mode the technique that would emerge would be beautiful in its raw power.

“AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWO!” the Naughtykage would howl as large trees, five meters thick would begin to sprout from every which way inside the snowglobe. The Large trees that were already there would begin to crash and collapse all around the snow globe. Within the ten meter radius around the Naughtkage the foul beast would cause his trees to sprout from under the building and rise up like a large terrace. Uprooting the structure cracks and other destruction would begin to appear at the base but the majority of the house would remain intact now reinforced from the trees that Naughtykage would erect around the building, creating a miniature globe within the dome. Ten meters in diameter, with the Naughtykage at the center, with no way in or out,and now risen 15 meters above the ground level. Away from the festering swamp, which too was mostly absorbed by the massive trees that took the place of most of it, as the Naughtykage rose he would have the trees grow at a slight angle so that he was now directly in the center of the snowglobe.

Outside of this 10 meter diameter range the trees would form in random order around Kizmaru and Keita. They would take the place of the old trees, sprout in between them, and cause incomprehensible damage to the layout of the snowglobe. At jutsu speed these massive trees would sprout every which way, threatening to envelop his opponents. Sprouting 5 meters away from Keita and Kizmaru these trees would then begin to grow outwards from that location and towards their direction at jutsu speed. The Large trees that were there previously, some 20 meters high and 5 meters thick would crash down towards their location, causing even more of a hazard if they didn’t do something about it. With the several large trees around them crashing into the impenetrable dome and then down onto them or onto them directly. As they sprouted they would become an impassible hazard, being a thick and intertwined as they could possibly be.

If the two did not find a way to combat this they would be left inside a 10 meter semicircle around them when the technique began. The apex of this semicircle would be 5 meters to the right of Keita’s location. From there the technique would begin to grow at jutsu speed towards its max range and inwards towards the duo, with this happening at over triple times Keita's speed (Quadruple for the sitting Kizmaru). Attempts to leave that area would cause them to run right into the technique from any direction, probably reaching root structures even if they somehow managed to dig down. At their current location both were well within this jutsu's range.

“Lets see you handle this one.” The vile beast thought to himself.

Whilst sitting in the snow, even Kizmaru couldn't concentrate with the sound of a distant howl of what he presumed was his opponent. As he sat in the snow, the heat from his armor was hot enough to melt the snow around him into a puddle of water underneath himself as sat down. He didn't gather as much nature chakra as he would have liked but it was enough for him to sustain his Sage Mode long enough. Taking it as a signal of an attack, Kizmaru simultaneously entered his Sage Mode giving him a significant boost in his Vigor and Strength, opened his eyes to reveal his his crimson colored iris once more although they were of a more defined pattern instead of just having the normal three tomoe pattern, the Mangekyou Sharingan it was named and placed both of his hands together in order to perform the hand signs of Bird, Snake, Boar, Dragon, Ram, Monkey, Dog at his maximum speed. He had uttered the words, "Get out of the way Keita, this is going to be a big one, back me up after I fire this one off," loud enough for Keita to hear through the blizzard. As an added precaution, Kizmaru decided to activate one of the fuinjutsu seals on his body, the Seal of Absorption in order to drain the power of the newly formed trees when they surface with a powerful siphon from his opponent's technique. He wasn't sure if the dome would hold against an attack considering his opponent would mirror his power.  

When Kizmaru finished the first hand sign in the formula, a tear of blood began to form from his right eye, as he began to glow with a turquoise colored chakra which emanated from his body, expanding and enveloping himself, Keita and Ram at jutsu speed, creating a forcefield in the shape of a dome. This powerful dome would shield all of them from incoming attacks and falling hazards as well as pushing and destroying the oncoming roots that were being formed in a range of ten diameters with Kizmaru being directly in the center of it. By the time Kizmaru's barrier had finished expanding to protect the three of them, Kizmaru would also complete his hand signs, conjuring a ten by ten water whale shark from the puddle of melted water that Kizmaru formed below him in before it soared five meters in order to loop over Keita and avoid colliding with him. Maintaining the dog hand sign, the shark simply passed through Kizmaru as if it treated him as a temporary passenger without actually moving him from his current position. The shark then landed on the snow, hovering a foot over it as Kizmaru guided the shark towards the house. Soon, the shark would be hovering over the swamp Keita had made previously as Kizmaru guided it towards its intended target which was the chakra signature that was in the house currently. 

Travelling at jutsu speed, the water shark made its way towards the structure, expanding into a thirty by thirty water whale shark leaping from its position and colliding into the weakened wood technique that was used in order to make some form of blockade around the house before smashing through the house in an attempt to clamp its jaws down onto the Naughty Kage. As he guided the shark, Kizmaru began to stand up from his sitting position in order to better situate himself, maintaining his forcefield.

Keita was standing there, maintaining his jutsu for a split second before he heard a huge howl and his friend Kiz saying to get back. Keita had just enough time to take a few steps back, before a massive amount of trees suddenly sprouted from the ground and came barreling towards him. Keita was bracing himself for impact, as he was in the middle of an action and started to weave hand seals, he was not quite fast enough to get away in time from the super fast tree trunks and branches that were heading his way. Before the impact actually hit him, however, the trees around them slammed into a barrier that was erected around Kizmaru, and Keita glanced over there to see a small amount of blood trickling from Kizmaru's eye. Keita figured that this was some sort of technique from his sharingan which was causing this, as Kizmaru started to weave another set of hand seals. Keita realized that he was just relegated to support, as this was the first time he had seen his friend here unleash such a powerful technique. This meant that the beast in the house also had a similar technique and Keita himself would essentially be useless here. There was no getting close to the other person, nor was there touching him to use his techniques, at least not for the time being. Keita would simply observe and bide his time, making sure that he was in a position to utilize his more supportive techniques. Keita immediately stopped feeding chakra into the swamp of the underworld, causing the remains of the technique to revert to normal ground.

Keita then finished his hand seals of a technique, which was tiger, dog, ox, dragon, boar, rat, and finally tiger. He had finished the hand seals right after he had seen a giant water shark bullet fly passed him, Kiz making sure that the shark bullet was not going to hit him. Right after the shark was completely away, which was essentially a split second, Keita swiftly walked over to Kiz and placed his hand on his shoulder, which would place a fresh Seal of Absorption on him. He would have to wait a small amount of time before he could utilize the second seal of absorption, but it was good preparation if this battle dragged on for longer than normal. Hopefully this barrier would hold until the senju wood technique was over, but Keita lacked the knowledge to know for how long the creature inside the house would be able to control it and how long the barrier that Kiz was making would last, so he was simply on guard. He had plenty of things he could activate at a moment's notice, and hand seals would be fairly useless to him with his current repertoire of jutsu that required them, so instead he simply attempted to heighten his senses to the max, making sure that he was around two meters away from Kizmaru and slightly behind him, so that he would always be in range with his techniques. 

Spoiler:

The Naughtykage sit within his wooden tomb. That’s what this building was now for the abomination. Beyond the wooden construct that he had created with his wood jutsu technique he could hear the crunching of his wood jutsu on the laws of a now massive beast.

“This seal…unbelievable to deceive the likes of me.” The terrible man said. Even so the naughtkykage would do what he can. Maybe he could destroy the enemy whilst they destroyed him. It was a good move on their part, using the water outside against him, something that the nemesis could not create while inside the building.

It would all happen so suddenly to the naughtykage. Whilst sitting in sage mode he would continue to hold the snake hand seal. His plan would now be complete as root formations that were growing underground would spout up from underneath Kizmaru and Keita.

The technique in his eye was quite powerful and a useful gift to stop the debris and trees on the surface; an impenetrable force field held back only by the power of the user.It did have a flaw, like most sharingan techniques, and it would now present itself to the duo. The barrier's power wouldn’t extend beneath the ground.

It was there where these roots formed and now in random order begin to grow out from the soil beneath their feet. Roots would form into bark which then turned into leaves, all while the duo were caught up inside it. This would cause massive lacerations and cuts, bruises and abrasions, with fractures and ruptures.

Keita and Kizmaru were well within the Naughtykages range for these random formations to appear from underneath them. The shark technique would destroy those trees on the surface as it made its way upwards towards.

Whether his attack would hit or not the nemesis would not recourse. The now blazing fast shark monster was about to engulf him. He would give out one last growl.

“AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOGAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA” in as menacing and loud of a voice as possible, sure to stir fear into those unlucky to hear it, and would await his now soon fate.

The water shark that collided into the trees the Naughty Kage initially used to defend himself now became a detriment to his escape. it only proved to bolster the shark's speed and power to its absolute peak, smashing through the house and crashing its large jaws onto the Naughty Kage, carrying him out the back of the house forcefully, before crunching down on the armor he wore as well as the naughty Kage himself, killing him. With that, the battle would be over as the shark has done its job. However, it seems as if the Naughty Kage had made one last ditch effort on attacking the duo with the trees that were previously attacking them. Kizmaru wasn't aware if the Naughty Kage noticed the power of the trees had already diminished greatly but it didn't matter to him and most likely to his partner in the least. As a precaution, Kizmaru simply infused his chakra through his armor to reinforce its durability as a countermeasure. All he did afterwards was guard the only real vulnerable part of his body which was the upper part of his face from being harmed, putting his left arms over it. 

The weakened wood simply bounced harmlessly off his armor as it lashed out towards him before eventually dying down as the user was presumed no longer alive to maintain controlling the wood to do so. Inhaling and exhaling, he remained vigilant briefly before putting down his forcefield and walking towards the house to double check and see if the Naughty Kage had truly fallen. If so, he'd feel it was quite anticlimactic as he expected better from somebody that possessed all of his capabilities, even if they were in a weakened state. Moving quickly but silently, Kizmaru had dashing forward through the path of destroyed trees where his shark previously cut through, making a path for him to easily follow where he found the destroyed house and an unfamiliar body that was wearing his armor. "Yup, this must be him. Well, that was easy," Kizmaru had remarked as he peered over the body. He was quite glad this was so or he might have still been in trouble with all the things this creature might have had up his sleeves. Returning back to Keita, he complimented him on a job well done before they were shortly returned to their previous location. It seems with the Naughty Kage dead, it would undo whatever strange technique had them trapped here in the first place. He'd converse with Keita on the events that transpired later but for now, he'd just like to take a good rest.
