Somebody call down the thunder?These are phrases he uses and more of a morale to him
Underestimation will get you killed
See beyond the visible
Well guess I’ll have to try again. Right?Clan InformationElement users of electricity and water, these clan members focus on manipulation and creation of the two elements. They follow philosophy of speed and power of electric and elegance and flexibility of water, Mixing them together for a powerful attack.
Clan Name: Ishitaka
Kekkei Genkai: The clan is able to create and manipulate forms of water and electricity. Turning water into ice is also not a problem for water masters. Making thunder and lightning from the skies is not a problem for masters.
Clan Symbol:Clan History: The clan’s history was once recorded in old wooden scrolls but most of them have been burnt, deprived or stolen. Thus most of its history is handed down to their scarce and remaining descendants. Tough not much can be depicted it is clear that they had originated from two other families. One users of water the other electricity, over the years the two families had mixed together into one Family the Ishitaka. There family was affected by the shinobi chaos where large countries would hire ninja clans to rage war. Though they did resist this system and tried to stay independent they were forced into the business and later wiped out by superior and much larger clans, such as the Uchiha, Hyuuga, Senjunn and many others.
Once born into the family the elders would decide the role of the child trough a test. An assortment of goods will be left lying on floor and whichever the child picks first determined their role to the family and village. These included brushes, canvas, money, knives, animal droppings, hoes, tools and precious gems. Each of them had a role though most children would grow up to fill the role (if one picked a brush he would usually become a painter) they were free to chose how to achieve it, such as some children picking a brush and using his painting skills to fight. Storing many Jutsus and summoning techniques. Adepts being to the point where they could draw scrolls mid battle and masters bringing the colorful painting to life and taking real life form.
On the element side every single child born to the family is able to use the creation and manipulation technique. Though one out of every 100 th child may produce a child who cannot control either. The user usually is mastered in one element and adept in the other. Trends follow as a boy stronger with Electricity and a girl with water, though some talented users are known to have mastered both the elements. From about the age of 7 the child will be able to manipulate one element. And from 10 create his or her first element and manipulate the other. This is the age that they are considered grown and will be marked with the Clan’s symbol. This is found below the left colar bone and cannot be removed.
Recorded in of their annals in a mention of genocide, in which all the clan’s Shinobi member went to war. They had been caught in a cross fire between two of the most powerful clans. The Ishitaka clan were defeated their lands taken away and the survivors captured for their secrets or if lucky escaped and accepted into other clans losing a lot of their bloodline.

Background Informationbefore birthA women was into her 8 th month of pregnancy, on the run with her father-in-law, and little brother. Her clan had gotten in a cross fire between two rival Clans. The men were left with no choice but to defend their homes while the elderly, children and women ran away. For a week they had hoped to go back to their homes but all was lost as none of the men came back to the promised hiding place. Slowly one by one the women started to leave the hiding place, a Mountain high up near Kumogakure regions, in search of new homes husbands. The elders stayed upon the mountain swearing an oath that they would maintain the bloodline. But with who was the question? There was a cry as a new born baby boy’s umbilical cord was cut. The elders smiled as they planned the boy’s future with this god given grace.
Child hoodOnce Kyosuke had weaned and was able to crawl the test judging his fate was given. The traditional table was at hand. But strange it was to the elders, this child was not interested in the goods laid before him but rather the group of elders sitting in front him looking at him in anticipation. The child reached out with two hands and at the same time grabbed the sack of precious gems and the knife, never in history had there been any child who had taken two goods at once. Though shocked the elders were happy with this. The child grew up with his mother inside the mountain caves. Since the day he could walk and talk. He was taught by the elders getting taught almost every single tradition, swordsmanship, jutsu and bloodline limit mastery. From the age of 6 Kyosuke was able to create both elements and manipulate them as good as any adept would. By 8 he could par up with almost any elders and masters. The same age he had learnt every single thing the elders could teach him at that age. Kyosuke was still a child the responsibility he felt of learning so much and reviving the clan was stressing him out. Concerned his mother appealed to the elders asking them to send him away where he would feel more comfortable. The elders gave in and through old friends and travelers sent him to Country of the Sand. Befitting his nature and knowledge Kyosuke was taken in by a Sand Jounin who had been out on a mission. To find a boy who could at the age of nine capable of performing Jutsu with concise Chakra was beyond him.
AcademyAcademy had its boring sides and fun sides for Kyosuke. Meeting children his age and playing with each other was so unbelievable fun. Though sometimes their level of maturity was too low for his liking he didn’t really mind preferring it over old geezers. Class was somewhat interesting learning new facts about his new home and the shinobi world was fine but those boring basic Jutsu class was heart tearing. For example he was asked to create a bunshin of himself. He watched most kids make 2 to 3. When it was his turn Kyosuke walked up to his teacher, smiled brightly and created a single clone. The teacher was disappointed to see only one clone, heaving a sigh he made a mark on his note pad. Kyosuke shook his head and called for the examiner. The clone walked up to the examiner picked up is pencil and scribbled out the 1 bunshin and replaced it with 10 bunshin 1 water clone. With that the clone turned back into water.
GraduationGraduating from the academy only took him two years though you were considered a genius only if you passed it in one year. The only reason he stayed behind one more year was because he wanted to stay with his friends a little longer. He had planned to stay another year when on purpose he failed his exam in making a bunshin clone and using a replacing jutsu with a tree stump. He laughed about it as he lolled onto the training grounds and too play a joke on his friends did a high level water jutsu causing them to get wet. The examiner who had walked out to call in the next child saw this and reported it to the other examiner. Kyosuke would become a Genin the next day.
GeninBy hell being a genin was so pathetic, running around saving kittens and sweeping floors. He had already done all this before back home. He felt more like an errand boy than a Ninja. His team comprised of two other boys. They did their assigned jobs like it was their lifelong dream. Rolling his eyes Kyosuke demanded a more thrilling job something that would challenge his five senses and was life threatening. The Chuunin smiled at him and gave him a C rank mission. It spelt Basement. Delighted at what was given to him he ran to the mission area only to find huge pile of sewage waste stuck deep underground. After days of manual labor and much vomiting Kyosuke asked the Chuunin what that was about. Five senses, I’m sure your eyes were shocked at the amount there was, your nose would be dead by now, your tongue I hope not, your ears should be bleeding from the amount of flushing sounds you’ve heard I’m sure you are dying by now. Kyo was lost for words. With a smile the Chuunin ruffled his hair. Kid wait for next years Chuunin exams. Then you’ll be able to do dangerous missions. With that the Chuunin resumed his own business not forgetting to wash his hands.
Chuunin ExamsAfter year it was Konohagakure turn to host the Exams. He begged his Jounin in charge to put his team up for the exams. Heaving a sigh Kyosuke’s teams was given permission. Though Kyosuke was delighted his teams mates were somewhat reluctant, they had been genin only a year and the chances of dying was somehow not what they saw their future as. Together they entered passing the first exam of a few theory questions was easy for all three. Though the second was a bit challenging they had thought it would be the traditional forest of death but however was more like a tournament, fighting other teams in the whole of Konoha till only 4 teams were left. Random attacks would be allowed anytime during the 1 week of the second exam. This was no problem for Kyosuke though his friends were dropping it out and get injured badly every battle they did. Near the end of the exam it was Kyosuke by himself fighting three man teams. Exam three, one on one tournaments prelim exams dropping out 10 and only 10 going to the finals. Kyosuke however did not make hit, but one of his friends did. Sad and disappointed Ryuu gave his friend a good shout before leaving the stadium he had lost to a hidden sand Genin. For two more pain staking years he waited, to once again attempt to take the exams. The first exam was same as the old but with different questions and much longer. He passed the second with no problems with his now much more experienced team mates who were now more than happy to try out. This time he made it through the prelims and would take the finals in 1 week.
For the week he practiced new technique and forming faster hand seals. Training endless hours before the exam and at last the exam had come. He shook a little for the first time facing much larger and experienced genin who aged 18-25. He was only 15. His fear had gotten the better of him just when he was doing fine he got knocked out and ended up losing to yet again a Sand Genin. He was once again disappointed again he had dropped out.
RP Sample: - Spoiler:
He had expected a hollow to around these parts. They were always in these parts of Kakura. A hollow no bigger than a car, with a two black lines going down his white back. The mask resembled a pig’s snout, two tusks coming out the sides of his mouth. The hollow moved a bit like gorilla walking on his hind legs but using his front to support him now and then. The movements were quite bull like rampaging and ramming. Surprisingly it was rather slow and stiff. It took a tremendous amount of time after each attack to turn around and face Ryuu again. Ryuu didn’t see any reason to rush this; he had just come out to patrol his shift for the week. He took his time figuring out this strange hollow. Every attack would be more or less in the same routine. The hollow looked at Ryuu grunted and then charged at him much like a bull would to the matador. Ryuu would easily move out the way with the hollow dashing past him. After realizing he had missed the hollow would pace and turn around and once again charge at Ryuu. This had gone for a while; charging, dodge, miss, turn and recharge. Ryuu had this pretty much figured out and when the hollow charged again Ryuu did not move out the way. Moving his left foot forward he gave a straight out punch into the mask of the hollow. The hollow crumbled and flew back a good 5 meters. Ryuu shook his hands in pain and sighed.
That was harder than expected
Looking at his hands he found a small cut across his knuckles, he casually lifted it up and sucked on it. The hollow took his time getting up, it seemed a bit dazed by the punch just like when boxers take a good one to the face. The hollow’s mask did not break and remained fully intact. The hollow stood up wavered a little then once again resumed charging stance. With a grunt it once again charged at Ryuu unaffected by the punch. It did not seem angrier or even intimidated by Ryuu’s response. This seemed all strange but variations were expected of Hollows. Not wanting to let his mouth off the cut Ryuu Lifted his leg up high. He brought down his foot like a hammer hitting the hollow on top of his skull. With a tremendous crash the hollow fell upon the floor his legs and arms spread on the sandy playground. Ryuu left his foot on top of the hollow’s head and waited for a reaction.
Did he knock it unconscious? He never heard anything like that before. Was it dead? No it would have disappeared by now.
An uneasy feeling crept into Ryuu, something was not at right here. The hollow was too passive in his attacks; he did not show any emotions like the others he purified. As a basic, Ryuu understood that hollows came about because they held a grudge either on the world or on a specific area. If it had turned into a hollow then why wasn’t it aggressive like all normal hollows? Ryuu looked at the hollow whom still lay spread eagled on his stomach. Taking his foot off and examining the mask, he found not a single scratch. Ryuu drew his Zanpakuto from its sheath and laid the tip of the blade, in the middle of the Hollow’s forehead. Holding the hilt with his right and his left pushing the cap of the hilt, Ryuu cracked the mask down in half. A fine line appeared from the tip of his forehead down to the hollow’s chin, purification. Ryuu stepped back waiting for the hollow to vanish and makes its way to Sereiti. It did not happen. Total shock was at hand, was this even possible? This was unheard of. Ryuu stepped on the right side of the mask. With a clatter it crumbled under his foot. What he behind it was not the face of a man but rather there was nothing at all, just a clean white surface. Ryuu turned around and looked into the open playground. He looked about thinking someone had been on a swing as the chains clinked. Shaking the thought he turned around. The hollow had stood up with only his left side of the mask intact. The hollow grunted and scraped the floor. Ryuu and the hollow were too close. The hollow charged forward.
Fu**…
Ryuu was hit hard on his chest. The hollow lifted his head up as he made contact. Ryuu lay balanced on the hollow’s head for a while before being pushed off and falling onto the floor. Stumbling back up Ryuu felt his ribs. Nothing broken but definitely a fracture somewhere he thought. The hollow grunted a few meters away but still to close. Ryuu maintained an offensive stance and held up his Zanpakuto high above his head. The hollow came charging still in its usual pace. Stepping forward lightly Ryuu dropped the blade right down on top of the Hollow’s face. The ripped force cut the hollow in half, the body ripping off each other and falling onto the floor. It still didn’t disappear. It just lay there ripped apart. This was no hollow, something strange was at hand. Ryuu turned to face the swing. It lay there slightly swaying in the wind. He pointed at the swing with his left index finger and called out.
Come out of there….. fine… Hado #4 Pale lightning.
Ryuu’s kido jumped out from the tips of his finger. The burst of lightning piercing through the air. As the kido went past in between the two chains, there was a horrible sound of tearing skin and a belch. The swinging violently shook, the chains rattling and seat turning upside down. This too was a shock to Ryuu, he had had a strange feeling about the swing but he didn’t expect his kido to hit thin air. The shaking came to a halt as the chains became steady.
Hahaha I was hoping you wouldn’t catch on it was getting fun watching your reaction
A white arm appeared out of thin air, slowly it emerged out. Tearing the very fabric of the air and sliding out, showing its body. The voice was very much like a normal human being’s voice but with malice and evil intent. This too was a hollow, his appearance looked very much like that of a humans. With upper and lower torso, two legs and two arms, five fingers and five toes. The only thing not human was the face. A mask lay where it was supposed to be. A pure white and ovular mask with two red stripes going down its eye slots was instead there. The body covered was plain white. No marks were on it.
Though I must say you caught on faster than most prey.
The hollow stood there with his right arm detached from its shoulder. He held it with his left arm.
you took my arm off. My pet is not going to like that.
Pet?
Ryuu turned around to find the weird hollow standing up right. Not a single wound lay there even the mask was spotless from attacks. It struck with its back hand. Hitting Ryuu while he was facing the away, unguarded.
Ryuu was hit for the second time today and both of them pissed him off. Recovering from the hit Ryuu faced the odd hollow once more. Grabbing the hollow by the head Ryuu stabbed the center of the mask, pulled it out kicked the hollow in which afterwards slashes the hollow horizontally cutting the hips off. Once this had been done Ryuu turned to face the more humanoid like Hollow.
Ahh… that’s not nice you just cut my pet up, again but no matter. My pet cannot die as long as it’s in my Illusion world. Look there he is now
Ryuu turned around it was true. Once again the gorilla Hollow was standing up right undamaged and intact. Ryuu realized that this not a real hollow but rather a fake one created by the real hollow standing behind him, another was that Ryuu was no longer in the play grounds of Kakura but rather in some other world that belonged to this hollow. Ryuu’s night was spoiled he came through the doors looking forward to some patrolling and enjoying the night’s breeze but he was met with some freak hollow. Now that he thought about it there was no breeze. How could he have missed it? he thought. This was the very first thing he checked when he entered a new area but that would be thought about another day. He had to deal with a regenerating freak and its master the Hollow. Heaving a sigh Ryuu thought to himself. The freak hollow cannot be killed in this world, thus if he destroyed this world then the freak would die. Second he would have to destroy the world by destroying the master hollow. Third by experience if he tried to attack the master hollow then the pet would intervene. Assuming the master hollow had low combat abilities due to the fact he used a puppet like entity Ryuu came to the conclusion that the master puppet would not attack personally. The freak/puppet hollow was slow in his movements and Ryuu would easily reach the master hollow with no intervention but there was a catch to his plan. The gamble was that it would succeed in doing so if the master puppet could not attack Ryuu himself or that he didn’t own other puppet like pets. Ryuu thought hard for a while before concluding that attacking the master with the risk would be the best.
The puppet hollow once again started to attack Ryuu in its usual charging gallop. If Ryuu’s plan went according to plan the Puppet would not make it in time to get in-between them but if he was not careful he could get hit in the back. Turning around and running at the master hollow Ryuu held tight onto his Zanpakuto. This would be one time shot, if the plan failed the master puppet would take his distance and find a form of defense. A slash across the hips would help. Hitting the face with the odds he had was risking his plan. Running low Ryuu dashed towards the master hollow. The Master hollow responded quickly he threw away his torn off arm and with his remaining arm did a powerful necromantic gesture. Instantly from the ground another puppet hollow came forth. A thin hollow with long limbs and neck, the mask was fairly long with circular rings as markings. It was another puppet hollow; Ryuu’s fear was at hand. However Ryuu was undisturbed by this fact. He had thought the possible and reacted without a change in his speed. With the gorilla like hollow charging behind him and the Giraffe like hollow blocking the master hollow, all was in perfect order. Ryuu slid tackled under the second puppet hollow and Focusing Reiatsu into his blade. As he passed the master hollow he swung his blade from above his head in between the master hollows legs. The force of the focused Reiatsu cutting the Master hollow up vertically it split the mask almost all the way up to the top. The hollow screamed in pain as he held his mask close together with his remaining arm.
hahaha that was close Shinigami but you didn’t quite make it! Your next hit won’t even come close to me anymore!
You’re right. My hit won’t but your own will.
Gahh! What are you talking about?!
The master hollow turned around still holding his face. His gorilla puppet had rammed into the second and both were flying towards him at a dangerous speed. The shocked Hollow looked in shock as his own creations rammed into him breaking the remaining piece that held his mask together. All together they fell to the floor one on top of another. Momentarily after the mask spilt the three hollows disappeared. This time the deed was done and no longer would any of them regenerate. The night’s breeze could be felt on his skin, it gently caressed his face. Like the way a seductive women would do. Ryuu loved the night, it was peaceful and the rhythmic chirping of the crickets could be heard gently as Ryuu sheathed his sword. He looked up into the cloudless night sky, sprayed with sparkling stars. Ryuu wondered for a moment would he carry on patrolling the play grounds or would he return to Soul Society? His shift was technically over. Deciding to go back Ryuu motioned to open a door way back with a Hell butterfly. The usual doors materialized in front of him. Traditional sliding doors they were. Ryuu reached to slide open a door when deep voice interrupted the cricket chirping.
where do you think you’re going?!
Ryuu looked towards his right where the voice had come from a large, white hand came swinging down towards him. With a thud Ryuu was thrown off from the ground and flying into the air. Third hit tonight, stronger than the ones before. It did not feel good he could taste the blood slowly pouring out from his inner cheek. Looking at the owner of the hand the Hollow was like a mixture of all the three previous ones; a bulky and long upper torso with a short and hairy lower torso. The mask was a huge mask with a twisted mouth and a single large tusk coming out the one side. Its eye slits were deformed and the whole face in general having a depressed twist to it. The marking were also a mixture. It had the two black stripes down the back, the two black stripes down the face and the rings coiled around the chest. What a night it was.
Ryuu wondered why it had been so easy and what stood in front of him answered the question. Wanting to end it quickly as possible Ryuu drew his sword straight on. By his previous fight he thought that the three other hollows were pieces of this Hollow’s soul; the Gorilla for strength, the giraffe for agility and the humanoid for intelligence. Together they were one big hollow. Holding his blade at low angles with his right, Ryuu dashed at the Hollow, gently hopping to avoid another punch from the Hollow. Once over the large hand he swung his blade upwards to cut open the right arm that had attacked him. A clean swish as the Hollow’s arm came off near his elbow. The hollowed screamed at Ryuu before shoving his left hand into Ryuu. The angered strength was more than Ryuu had expected. The open hand smashed Ryuu making him fly off and bash into one of the swings. His mind swayed a little left and a little right his vision blurring a bit. Ryuu watched waiting for his mind to settle. The hollow, still screaming, was looking at his cut off arm. He slowly picked it up his remaining arm shaking. Picking it up he proceeded to open his mouth and started to shove the cut off arm into it. He did not chew it but simply gagged as he swallowed it whole much like a snake. Ryuu was taken aback to what the Hollow had displayed, it was shocking and grotesque. He stood there leaning against one of the swings as the hollow looked as if his pain was relieving. The hollow looked at Ryuu and seemed like it was crying in pain though there were no tears.
you look disturbed. Have you never seen someone eat himself? Hahaha who am I kidding you shinigami are too damn proud. But as for me I’ll do anything to stay alive and keep my strength at maximum. That arm is still part of my body even after it falls off and it contains some spirit ya see? That’s why I ate it so that I won’t lose any powers! Gah it’s been a while since I’d have to fight in this form but you’re the first to even cut off an arm! All the other ones just cried before they were eaten by me!
You’ve eaten other Shinigami?
What are you fucking stupid? I’m a damn hollow I eat anything that has a high spiritual density. I’ve probably eaten a hundred Fortune tellers tough majority of them were fakes and didn’t even see me when I ate them but as for Shinigami! Mmmm! They are so freaking tasty! They don’t come as often these days though but when they do they have to come in fucking groups of 5! I can’t even as so much as to breathe when they come here. What’s going on anyway? Huh?![color]
Ryuu instantly flashed forward, passed the uncut arm and around the back of the Hollow. Jumping up he swung his sword to neatly cut off the Hollow’s head and horizontally across his mask. Just inches away from cutting it off the Hollow swiftly turned around on its hips. It twisted around 180 degrees with ease and punched Ryuu with its uncut arm. Ryuu managed to stay stuck to the end of the uncut arm by finishing his swing and cutting into the flesh of the Hollow’s fist. Still stuck to the arm Ryuu Pointed his left index finger at the Hollow’s face.
[color=blue] Hado 26 Hidenko.
A thick red stream of lightning jolted out of Ryuu’s finger tips. It electrocuted the hollow’s whole body as the red lightning purged about his body. Screaming in pain the hollow flung Ryuu, as hard as he could, into the air. Ryuu prized his sword out just as he was thrown into the air. Holding Raikon high up into the air he called out to the screaming hollow.
It is because of beings like you that Shinigami have to work late into the nights but we shall stay and extinguish you beings Glow Raikon.
Raikon awoke into the fight. Glowing in the night and one with the moonlight, it flickered as wisps of electricity. More and more slivers of electricity poured out of Raikon. Ryuu came souring down as he brought down Raikon upon the blocking arm of the Hollow. The Electric blade easily sliced through the arm like a hot knife on butter. Upon passing through Raikon was literally on the tip of the Hollow’s mask. Bringing it down with great force Ryuu unleasehed his most powerful attack at point blank range.
Senkou Raiken!
The blade itself simply scraped the mask but the Lightning blade went clean through the mask, neck and body, cutting the hollow in half. The force of the Senkou laid waste as the blue stream passed through the hollow and cut across the sandy playground. The force causing the ground to shake and the nearby lanterns flickering as the lightning purged into the air. The remains of the hollow was scattered on the ground most of its body burnt and torn. Ryuu waited for it to disappear and go to Soul Society but it did not. Fearing the worst Ryuu stepped back and looked about the playground. He thought it was another illusion that he was under. The ground rumbled once more as the sand erupted from the ground. A tall iron gate arose from it. A skeleton was nailed upon it, the gates of hell. The iron doors swung open fiery wrath exploding from behind it. The hot flames of the dammed could be felt even from a fair distance away. Two skeletal arms reached out from hell’s Fired depths. Grapping hold the remains of the Hollow it dragged the pieces back into its shadow abyss. The price paid for committing crimes was divine judging. As the hollow was pulled a fraction of its true faced was revealed. The empty eyes and the dark skin, Ryuu had seem him somewhere before, he was familiar but before he could decide who the Gates of hell swallowed him up and shut its bars, silencing the ever screaming of those who committed bad crimes. As the door slid back into the ground Ryuu covered his mouth holding in what disturbed him. The smell of burning flesh was still lingering in the air and on his robes. Still holding his mouth and clutching his stomach Ryuu struggled through the Doors to Sereiti. That memory would be edged into his memory banks.

- Spoiler:
He held his breathe and focused his mind. He churned his inner energy slowly rotating it right as for his Energy seeping out he turned it left. He kept on doing so pushing away the pressure that seemed to crush his body. His body laid absolutely still, his legs crossed and his arms resting on them. He maintained a robust back and kept on turning and fighting the crushing pressure. He still held is breathing, his mouth was bloated trying to store as much oxygen as possible. He could hear his heart thumping and echoing in his ears. The longer he held his breath the harder it became to concentrate. A light throbbing sensation came knocking at his head. He would have to breathe soon. Slowly standing up Ryuu pushed himself up. His body slowly rose as he spewed out oxygen that his body had used up. The head ache grew stronger and stronger until he could not take it anymore but it was not a choice he would have to reach the top. With his arms he sprawled trying to climb up faster and faster. His lungs hurt his heart burned and His headache was unbelievable. A light could be seen as a little blurred dot. He was almost there. With a thrust and pump of his arms Ryuu emerged onto the surface of the water. He gasped for breath and the head ache slowly cleared out as his body received the oxygen it needed. For four months now Ryuu had trained his Reiatsu control under water. He had figured if he could exert it under the pressure of water that it would be much easier to do it in the normal air. He also figured that if he did this he would be able to repel off stronger Reiatsu than his own but in a sense it would be more of getting his to be stronger. Ryuu ducked back under water and swam back to the river’s bed. Finding the previous stone that he was on, he resumed to turn his Reiatsu one left the right in his meditating stance. Again he held his breathe for as long as he could approximately 5 minutes and 36 seconds was his max. His lung capacity had increased by tenfold at the maximum. In the beginning it was impossible to get down to the bed, concentrate and start turning his energy so he had started off on land. Then when the concentration had gotten easier for him Ryuu started to do it under water and over the months his lung capacity increased let alone his concentration level. Focusing to stay under water and float up, concentrating on turning one energy left and the other right. These helped Ryuu to be able to concentrate and think about two different things at the same time. The water around him swirled around him, making his hair float about in front of his eyes. His shinigami suspended around him wanting to float away in the waters gentle current. Ryuu still remained underwater still concentrating on turning his spiritual energy. He may have increased everything else but still he felt no change in his Reiatsu. He focused hard in turning faster and faster. The water around him started to swirl in his outer Reiatsu’s direction. Yes, this was helping he could feel a change in his Reiatsu it was getting stronger and stronger. Just a little more he thought. A little thump was felt at the tip of his head.
No not now
Reluctant to turn back just when he had started to feel the change Ryuu stayed down longer. He would just push himself up hard when he was in dire need of breathe. He swirled the water around him faster and more violently. His uniform stuck to his body coiled and wrapped around him. His hair swirled around his head completely covering his eyes. Thump thump thump. It was time to go back up now if he stayed any longer his body would react and breathe in the water. He opened his eyes and proceeded to swim upwards, kicking off he stepped of the rock and made his way to swim to the surface. Ryuu paddled his legs with his arms pointing up to break the water line but something was wrong, he was not going anywhere. He stopped paddling and looked around him had something caught his leg? No, it was his violent Reiatsu it had caused the water to spin in circles. The swirling water had become so extreme that he had created a somewhat miniature whirl pool. Ryuu was stuck in the center of the rapid swirling every time he tried to go back up, the current would just suck and draw him back down. He tried even harder now using both his hand and legs to paddle up. This was no use, the current was too strong it caught him and dragged him back down. The head ache grew stronger and his heart started to burn again. He paddled even harder now in a bit of a panic. Would he die? That was the question that kept on being replayed in his head. Ryuu swam in blind panic he did not want to die. The carbon dioxide inside his body, started to burn him. His body reacted instinctively letting out the bad air and seeking in clean and fresh ones. Ryuu gagged under water as the carbon dioxide bubbled out his mouth. He knew if he breathed in the water that he would certainly die. He bit his lip fast and refrained from breathing in the water. He looked about and saw his swirling uniform. Quickly he pulled of the heavy top part of his uniform and instantly started to paddle up again. Ryuu managed to swim out the swirl but he was still too slow. He halted for before taking of his lower part of his uniform and proceeded to swim back up. With a last effort thrust Ryuu popped out from under the water. Coughing and choking on water Ryuu feebly paddled to the bank of the river. Crawling back up to dry land he continuously coughed. He felt a lurch in his stomach and a vomiting sensation as his mouth produced out blood. A dark crimson red was splattered upon the grass banks. He continues to cough producing blood most of the times. For the first time Ryuu thought that this training method was lethal. He would have to tone it down and ultimately take patience into it. He was a fool to have rushed things. He turned around and lay down on the banks clear out of the way of the blood. His master back in the real world always did warn him about his impatience. He was quick to attack and quick to judge people. He thought about his master his school days training Kendo all day. Then his mind tracked back to his home back in the real world. He would have to visit it sometimes, He thought about his family back there all those little kids, there was one in particular he remembered a little girl, about 3-4 years younger than him she had been still in elementary when he was in middle school. She had the same colored hair as him, with the blue spaced out eyes. She looked very much like him almost like true brother and sister, Yochi. He was lost deep in thought when a he heard giggles behind him. He stood up and turned around to find female Shinigami pointing and laughing as they walked past. What was their problem? He looked down to realize that he was only wearing his undergarments. His face momentarily turned into a pink shade. He casually walked back into the river and emerged himself to return to his training. And find his uniform.
Swimming back down to the water’s bed Ryuu looked about for his clothes. His lower uniform lay on the rock he had been sitting on. Pulling it on a giving up on the upper half Ryuu once again concentrated on his training. The water seemed a bit daunting after almost drowning to death. His mind was slightly distracted. Reminding himself about what happened earlier he kept patient. Ryuu twirled around his Reiatsu, at constant speed, strength and formation. He tried very hard to clear his mind of what happened before. Clearing the drowning incident was not very hard however clearing his mind of his sister was not. Her image kept coming out in his mind, her scuttling around where ever he went, practicing his kendo routines and mimicking him before he tried to something. Ryuu gritted his teeth as he released oxygen unaware of it. He rose back to the surface taking a quick gulp of air and swimming back down to the river bed. Once again he repeated the same process he had been doing for months. Relax, concentrate and twirl. The image of his sister although was now starting to clear off she still occasionally popped out. He threw away the thought and concentrated on another matter. Instead of just swirling the Reiatsu and making it leak out he kept the same Reiatsu revolving around his body. By focusing on another matter he gradually forgot about his little sister and carried on with his training. Turning his Reiatsu left and the other right while still staying put at the bottom of the river bed; he carried on like this till he ran out of breath. When he had ran out of breath he would swim up to the surface and momentarily let his lung fill itself with fresh oxygen before diving back down, sit on the same rock and start to swirl and keep his Reiatsu in a tight, air bubble like force, around his body. For endless hours he repeated the process over and over again but still he felt no affect. The only thing he felt change in was his endurance. Would he take another risk and try something different and much more progressive? Ryuu swam up to the surface recycling the air. He thought for a while before heading back down to the river bed. Once he had reached near the bottom he did not sit upon his usual rock but instead swam downstream. He swam further down the river going down deeper and deeper until he eventually was in the deepest part of the river. Before diving down he rose up and took steady and large amounts of oxygen before sinking down to the bottom and deepest part of the river. The deeper you go the more pressure there would be, the price for faster training was how harder it was. In addition Ryuu would have to go up thirty seconds earlier to cover the distance. It was in fact harder to rotate the Reiatsu deeper down, let alone pushing away the pressure by keeping a string bubble. However Ryuu could feel that he was getting somewhere. He could feel his body being wrapped around something other than the water. Through his mind he could picture the flow of Reiatsu around his body. Not quite solid but it was still there, like Strong Brandy diluted where the oil like substance floats around unmixed. Thump… Ryuu started to swim up not forgetting what had happened earlier. Rising to the surface exchanging is old air for new he swam back down to resume his training. For the remainder of the day Ryuu practiced this, he felt not much change from the first time he tried it on the deeper end but he was satisfied with it. Getting out of the water for the last time Today Ryuu Made his way to the grassy banks he picked up his towel and dried himself off. The wind started to shill his wet uniform. Taking it off to prevent any cold of some sort he hung the lower part of his uniform. Ryuu changed into his casual clothes. He was of duty so wearing this would be fine. A black male’s use Kimono pants, a white hemp shirt and a black overall coat cut short on the arms. Ryuu picking up the Raikon leaning against a tree he proceeded to pull the blade out storing the sheath behind his back.
Glow deep Raikon
Ryuu wanted to see what he could do know with Raikon. Taking on his usual routine He held Raikon with two hands. He focused the energy towards the blades edges making a dense outer blade. Ryuu let his one hands grip go. Ha, so the training did help something after all. He could now maintain a Senkou with one hand. He lifted the blade up before slashing it in the air.
Senkou Raiken
A brilliant line of lightning jumped from the blades end and travelled 50m and over the same speed, distance and strength done with two hands. Grinning to himself Ryuu was again charged up a Senkou. Once again he let the one hand go and maintained it with one hand. He stood there to see how long he could maintain it. Many seconds passed with Ryuu barely feeling any burden to it. He lifted it up swinging it around here and there. The dense blade of lightning remained on the edges of Raikon. Ryuu moved about going into a sword dance routine. Stepping here and there while rotating around in small circles he moved about cutting the air. He slowly came to a halt and felt his forehead, not even a sweat could be felt. The training had paid off he could maintain a Senkou with one hand for a much longer time without feeling any burden at all. With his left hand in a defensive stance Ryuu span Raikon with his wrists, the Senkou blurring and creating a blue disk like appearance. Abruptly stopping Ryuu shot the Senkou up into the air. Was it just him or were the Senkous in fact bigger? Yes they were bigger in fact they were of even harder concentration. Happy with his new achievement Ryuu fired more Senkou here and there from different angles getting used to the feeling of his newly improved attack.
Wonder what A senkou would look like wrapped around my body.
Focusing his energy around his body Ryuu used the same principals of A Senkou and the underwater training. There was flicker of lightning, sparks spewing out here and there. Ryuu stopped for a while before considering some variables. Lightning wrapped around the body, takes on his shape, volts of lightning rotating really fast around it. Once again Ryuu released his energy refining it and keeping it tight to his body. A thick blue Aura emerged out in thin strands at first then they grew thicker and a deeper color. They engulfed Ryuu making a thick shield around him, a body of lightning. Ryuu felt the surge in energy and his body feeling much lighter as if he was floating. Though he looked down to check his feet, they were still touching the ground. He took a step forward and to his surprise the body of lightning followed without breaking form. It was rather much more comfortable to move about with it. There was no force pulling him down wat so ever. It had created a magnetic field of its own in defying gravity as a whole. Could he fly? No that was out of the question Seireiti was thick with Reiatsu it would push him about if he lost focus. He would rather try it when he was in the Human world. Ryuu took greater strides as he slowly broke into a run. He left blurs of blue where ever he was. He would need to correct that it would mean he was losing the body of lightning. Putting the containment training into effect Ryuu managed to stop the blur tough it did appear every now and then. He looked about as he ran. The surroundings seem to stretch and blur a bit as his body was moving at a fair and inhumane speed. He could even possibly over clock some of the fastest shinigami when they don’t use Shunpo. What else could he do with this armor? Would it stop physical attacks from hitting him directly? He would need to get someone to test it but he was sure his own attacks would hurt to a much greater extent. Stopping by a tree Ryuu slashed his hands across its trunk. With a blitz of lightning and a crack the tree fell down with a mighty crash.
oh?
