It seemed Coda was right to not commit to kicking the Fox with any real effort, as the illusion faded away momentarily and she was left whiffing at nothing. She righted herself cautiously and began the process of moving further into the building, expecting she'd run into at least one of the other targets quickly. What she didn't expect, however, was traps like the one that disabled the person who went before her placed inside of a structure. It was a reckless course of action for real combatants, to say nothing of a bunch of JUEI running a test. It left her with very few options, though there was a course of action that nicely walked a line between detonating the entire building in self defense and fleeing once again. Her legs tucked in the blink of an eye as she released a short ranged wave of Ignition Release chakra to counter the explosions below her. Just in time for her original hunch to be validated by a carefully timed ambush. A quick punch as she began descending launched a projection of her fist to meet it, detonating as it reached the oncoming jutsu and consuming it with an explosion that filled the width of the hallway.
The two assailants would have little time to gawk however, as the chunin zipped through the aftermath of her own attack in an instant. The only sign that she'd moved at all was the sound and a quick shift in the part of her ignition release technique she passed through. Luckily for the masked shinobi, Coda was holding back, as she used the technique to simply attempt to tap either combatant on the shoulder from her new spot directly between them. While she did not regret her prior actions, the woman learned a vital lesson about the Yozen's mark and the power it provided at the gates of Zaishin. Here it was a means for slowing her own expenditure of chakra and stamina in the seemingly endless game of cat and mouse she found herself playing here in the forest. For now at least. No further attacks, no menacing stares, just an oddly calm woman covered head to toe with black flame tattoos, in a hallway roiling with the aftermath of her ignition release, who seemingly appeared out of thin air. At worst the two would get an emotional shock and slight burn from her touch like one might from leaning on a hot piece of metal in the summer sun, a significantly less drastic result than if she pressed the attack. Of course, that could change in the blink of an eye. "You should probably quit before this gets out of hand." She figured it was a fair warning, because if she managed to get a hand on them, even a little bit, in the maneuver she just pulled, the fight was probably already over.

The wave of Coda's explosion snuffed out the trap's explosions with relative ease. If Coda paid attention to where the explosives had detonated, it would be rather clear that the structure of the building suffered no damage. At all. It appeared the the building was under some sort of protective technique, almost exactly like one Coda had run into previously on a mission with Roku; the mission being to help Sheva set up defenses for her fortress. Which really meant that neither Coda nor the combatants had to worry about destroying the building in their fight. The two combatants were expecting Coda to be able to counter their technique. They readied themselves into a defensive position as Coda punched away their combined attack. Both managed to be caught off guard by her almost instantaneous appearance in between the two. One of the pair managed to form a single handseal before disappearing to the other side of the room before Coda could lay a hand on them. The other masked figure on the other hand was unfortunate enough to feel Coda's burning touch. They both heard her warning, but it wasn't like they were in any position to just give up like that.
The second combatant that Coda had touched would go to make his move, that was if Coda didn't prevent him from doing so. The touch burned him, earning Coda a short yelp from behind the mask. After feeling the emotional shock and burn, the person knew they wanted to get Coda away from them. They would immediately drop down after being touched in order to perform a leg sweep on Coda. If successful, Coda would find herself swept off her feet and being sent in the direction of the other masked figure. Regardless of whether they were successful or not, the other masked figure formed a few handseals, creating a web of wind around Coda. The web would immediately fall in on itself, threatening to slice up Coda if she were unable to escape the technique. Had the other operative been successful, this technique would be even harder for Coda to dodge. With a few more handseals, the man would create bars of fire on all sides of Coda to prevent escape.
(OOC: So basically, one managed to escape Coda's touch to the other side of the hallway. His techniques will go off regardless, but Coda could actively prevent the one she touched from doing the leg sweep due to her set up in the pervious post.)
Five Seal Barrier [ Gofuu Kekkai ] | Rank C A complex Fuuin imbued with C Rank chakra and split between five seals. These may be placed on paper or clothing; the chakra will allow it to self-adhere to its placed position, though they only activate and perform their intended task when no more, and no less, than five [5] are placed. One [1] of the five [5] must be placed on the intended gate/doorway. The other four may be placed anywhere within the topic. Objects and people within the sealed area are protected from all harm unless either each of the five seals are dealt with, (each one requiring a C-ranked attack to destroy), or the seal is neutralized. - Side note: I'm more or less ignoring the protection on people, it's only for the building. But, if a technique you use on them would result in their death, I'm saying it'll knock them out instead and vice versa of course.
Leaf Violent Wind | Rank A | Simple (boosted to S) The user performs a sweeping kick at the target's legs. This action not only brings them horizontally off the ground but sends them flying five feet per rank of the technique. Should the opponent crash into any solid object during their flight, their bodies suffer a [1] point decrease in endurance the remainder of the fight for each rank of the technique.
Cast Net [ Kakeami ] | Rank A Using their fuuton chakra the user creates layers of thin fine lines of it intertwined with each other, this effectively creates a cutting net made of fuuton that fails inward on itself to catch the slice the target into multiple pieces. Because of the method of itโs creation targets start out trapped but instead may escape though the holes of itโs crisscross pattern before it enclosing in around them. If used on a target that is in the air the cost of evasive techniques used to escape this jutsu require one rank higher of their resources. (Only an A Rank is required but should be paid for as if S) The wind release shuushin and solo flight being exempt from this rule.
Fire Prison Technique [ Horou no Jutsu ] | Rank B The user forms the required hand signs, creating a floor, roof and prison like bars of flames around the target with a maximum size of forty feet in any direction. The flames intensity causes tier one dehydration within the prison and prevents water from being created below it's rank and potency. The prison burns away anything touching it, causing tier three burns on bare skinned contact.
Only one was a less than ideal outcome, especially considering the strange one from earlier was still at large. She had a potential solution for all of them being here, but she was in conservation mode now - only using things when necessary or most effective. She couldn't really afford for it to fail if she used it. At least she could focus on the other for the time being. A nearly effortless change of stance brought the leg closest to the sweeping attack out to meet it, with a little extra flair. It gave a bit on contact, effectively catching the kick and controlling it like one might a ball while playing catch - turning what could have been a simple block into a subtle warning that the man was out of his league. Luckily for him, Coda wasn't the type of shinobi that ran around in skirts or compression shorts, meaning he'd be spared another burn to anything but his ego. "Go sit in the corner or something before I make you."
The other would receive the jutsu she pilfered earlier. A wave of Futon chakra stopped the net, as the tattoos on her hand shifted to the same formation that had stolen it before. The fire, however, she simply watched. At this rate, they'd burn each other out, quite literally, before they got anywhere close to gaining an advantage. The chunin heaved a sigh and formed a single hand seal, closing her eyes to focus. As she did those oh so active tattoos of hers began to peel themselves up at the corners of shapes; glowing orange, and then yellow, and finally white in places as she was engulfed in roiling flame. Eyes of burning ember fixed themselves on the one who had attempted to confine her, and she pressed through the bars, shifting and stretching and recomposing on the other side as she began a calm advance on the one whose fate wasn't already sealed. "I really don't like being put in cages. You'll get it worse than your friend if you make me fight you for real. Last chance." Normally Coda wouldn't have bothered, they'd both be full of senbon or drooling away unconscious, but it would be more of a thumb in the eye to that stupid fox if she demonstrated more than just physical control over an interaction. The ability to intimidate and, more broadly, manipulate was as invaluable an asset to JUEI and the Oinin as it was ideologically to her. And Coda didn't intend to leave many boxes unchecked in regards to value.

โ Activations Used โท
Activation 1 Basic Block Rank E > Boosted to S
Activation 2 Beast Wave: Gale Wind Palm Rank A [ Used from Artistic Destruction, no cost ]
Activation 3 Body Modification: Assumption of Form Rank A Custom Effect: Coda's body is transformed to have the appearance of flame, giving off the sensation of intense heat to those around her and functioning as an A-rank Katon jutsu for interactions with other ninjutsu. In this case the fire will not burn on contact any more than Infernal Body would, though the experience of being hit would likely be extremely unpleasant.
โฐ Character: Coda โฐ Body Modification: Assumption of Form | Rank X | Bloodline Using a special set of tattoos, Coda stores advanced transformation jutsu. Unlike normal transformations, these forms are tangible changes to the user's body. Their size and efficacy vary by the rank the jutsu is applied at, but they may apply no more than 3 unique effects based on the nature of the transformation. These effects are also rank limited. All versions may apply a purely visual transformation, or a transformation that applies or resists damage of some sort. C-rank and above may apply a status effect of tier 2 or lower, provided this status effect is appropriate to the nature of the transformation. B-rank and above may apply a stat bonus of [ 1 ] point, and A-rank and above may apply a stat bonus of [ 2 ] points at the cost of one of the other two effects.
The drawback of this technique is in its specificity, and interactions with other jutsu. If, for example, Coda were to create an E-rank coating on her body that turned her skin into barbs that dealt E-rank damage to the opponent, these could not also resist damage from an opponent. In fact, they could only ever deal damage to an opponent. So, if her skin is turned to steel to resist physical strikes, it does not also resist ninjutsu in the same way. Additionally, they may not leave her body, nor can any physical manifestation - i.e. no making her skin emit poison, no firing spikes off, etc. Similarly, if she creates a form that turns her skin into fire, it may not apply a status effect that is not related to that element. Any elemental application applies the effects of weakness and overwhelming as well, and Coda is barred from using any element which she does not have access to personally or through fuuin. Additionally, the duration of this jutsu falls as more effects are stacked. The effects granted by default may be maintained for up to 8 posts and upkeep paid at 1/4th chakra requirements rounded up, if applied alone. Maintaining the effects of C and B-ranks, and below, reduces this to 4 posts and upkeep to 1/2 chakra costs rounded up. Maintaining the A rank effect of this jutsu, and all below, again reduces the duration to 2 posts, with upkeep remaining 1/2 chakra costs rounded up.

The first of the masked figures was unbalanced by Coda's block, resulting in him quickly tumbling to the ground. The person would land directly onto their bottom before using his hands to move backward as fast as it possibly could in order to get away from Coda, however he quickly found they found themselves quickly locked into the cage as Coda was. Which seemed to be even more problematic for the individual as Coda shifted forms in front of them. It seemed that problem wouldn't last for long as Coda shifted her way through the bars of fire. The individual for the moment found themselves trapped and maybe that was a good thing as they didn't wish to be burned by Coda further.
The other masked individual watched the transformation, Coda's tattoos engulfing her in flame. It was at these times that an agent would likely question why they were put against a person of Coda's skill level, but like Coda, their individual missions were very clear in what they were to be doing. The masked individual who Coda gave another warning to, took what time they had to form some hand seals. Water would quickly form in front of the man into the form of serpent that would immediately fly into the direction of Coda to hit her and hopefully deal with whatever fire technique it was Coda had up. While the serpent was mid air, spears of water separated themselves from the serpent before being sent in Coda's direction as well. Hopefully this combination of techniques would catch Coda off guard and allow the individual some edge in this fight.

But, if a technique you use on them would result in their death, I'm saying it'll knock them out instead and vice versa of course.
- Water Gathering Gorgon [ Suishuu Gorugon ] | Rank A Suishuu Gorugon is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Water Element. To utilize this technique, the user will use their chakra to generate a mass of water. This can then be sent towards their target as a biting serpent. The technique can be manipulated to pursue a target requiring an activation but no sustain to do so. Making it difficult to dodge.
- Drilling Water Spears [ Doriru Suiyari no Jutsu ] | Rank B-X (Created at A rank) Large sharp drill shaped spears made of water come forth out from the water around the enemy and attacks. Alternatively, this can be used as a powerful defense, causing the water drills to intercept attacks and either nullify them, in the case of ninjutsu or deflect them high in the case of projectiles. Creates [5] large spears. The Chakra spent to create said spears is divided among them. Each can be controlled respectively to launch themselves linearly toward a target and disappearing on collision with a hard surface. After performing the technique the user can delay when the spears spawn until the following post.
The Chuninโs eyes rolled as she stopped again, focusing even as the incoming techniques closed. They collided with the fire, filling the hallway with steam, and for a moment it seemed like maybe the attack had succeeded. It would be only a moment, however, as a now stone covered Coda burst from the midst of the dissipating vapor. Sheโd given her warning, and though she loathed it sheโd hold back to appease the fox. There was only so little effort she could put into knocking someone out though. One of her lesser used styles the, Flowing Arts' Downpour, splitting the force across multiple strikes at a blinding speed as opposed to one.
Chances were, that'd mean two of this lot dealt with. Not exactly what Coda was expecting when she entered the building, but she couldn't argue. Ideally, the last would show herself and the less... ambitious member of the group would simply stay put like she told him to instead of attempting to flee. She could stand to make her energy go a little farther considering how involved this had gotten, and the fact that she knew the final member leaned on ninjutsu previously. Regardless of whether the last of the loose ends currently presenting itself was tied up, a single hand seal shifted the woman's tattoos again. The trio of little scouting bats slipped out from the fissures in her stone facade like shadows and zipped off through the rest of the building in search of either the other shinobi, or the so far elusive VIP.

The masked figure relaxed slightly as they watched their attack collide with the fire. Perhaps this applicant wasn't as strong as they thought she was. However, that moment of their relaxed state quickly ended as Coda appeared from the dissipating steam in a new form altogether. Each of Coda's attacks appeared to the figure as only blurs. Coda was fast, much faster than this person could have ever hoped of being in order to prevent the attack. The first of the attacks landed, followed by the rest of them. For a moment, the person stood still, their legs shaking before they would collapse to the ground. The man's breath was shallow, but he was clearly still alive. The other masked individual was largely helpless to help their teammate as the sudden additional transformation only resulted in him crawling closer to a corner. It seemed Coda was victorious in this battle.
The scouting bats quickly spread throughout the building. It wouldn't be much time before one of the bats would come into what appeared to be a grand room in the very center of the building. Perhaps if it were decorated it could serve as dining hall or even a ballroom. However, the room remained completely empty. Except for one thing that was. In the dead center of the room sat a man tied to a chair, his eyes covered and gagged. The man's head hung forward as he sat there.

But, if a technique you use on them would result in their death, I'm saying it'll knock them out instead and vice versa of course.
The now unconscious shinobi wouldn't make it to the ground before Coda caught the front of his outfit in a clenched fist. Her bats had found her target, meaning there was only one loose end remaining. The Chunin kept her transformation active as she toted the dead weight back down the hall towards the fearful, but unarguably smarter, member of the Fox's crack team. Meanwhile, the bats coalesced at their target, attempting to place themselves on him as one of Coda's tattoo seals even as she casually did the same to the man whose feet bumped the baseboard behind her. "If he stops breathing the Fox is getting two dead bodies back." She said, dropping one target into the other's lap before heading off towards the VIP, making sure to keep an eye out for any more traps. This was probably just a formality. The bats would likely reveal any subtle trickery before she got there, but she still needed to weed out the last remaining member of the trio. There was a chance the acrobatic woman from earlier was more capable than her counterparts, and might actually sacrifice Coda marking the focal point of this exercise in exchange for an ambush. It'd certainly be the more tactically sound approach, although that hadn't worked out well for the other two when the trap failed. Then again the last member of the group hadn't panicked when her attacks were dealt with - though it remained to be seen if she was capable of putting up a better fight considering the candidate had evaded her with simple trickery.

Any elemental application applies the effects of weakness and overwhelming as well, and Coda is barred from using any element which she does not have access to personally or through fuuin. Additionally, the duration of this jutsu falls as more effects are stacked. The effects granted by default may be maintained for up to 8 posts and upkeep paid at 1/4th chakra requirements rounded up, if applied alone. Maintaining the effects of C and B-ranks, and below, reduces this to 4 posts and upkeep to 1/2 chakra costs rounded up. Maintaining the A rank effect of this jutsu, and all below, again reduces the duration to 2 posts, with upkeep remaining 1/2 chakra costs rounded up.

The man made very little movements as the bats moved upon him and began placing themselves as tattoo seals. The man had very little room to struggle due to his confines. "Huh? Is someone there?" He called out to the empty room, not really realizing that no one else was there at the moment. However, he would continue to call out in hopes someone was here to rescue him.
It was clear that the other two figures were certainly not going to be putting up any sort of resistance to Coda. One not even being conscious and thus not really able to put up a fight and the other, not willing to fight someone with such monstrous strength in comparison. Which left Coda to pursue her other targets. The darkness of the hallways seemed like they went on forever. With a window only ever so often it left most of the building left in the shadows, most of the walls looking the exactly the same. The only real choices to make in the building were various left and right turns, something Coda would have quickly learned from the bats in addition to the location of the VIP. However, as she walked, she would likely quickly realize that the path she was following was not the same as the path the bats had taken. In fact if she decided to keep walking she would even find herself back at the two people she had fought minutes ago. One still unconscious and the other not daring look Coda directly in the face. It seemed the hallways led themselves in a circle with no discernable way of getting to the pathway the bats had led themselves down.

One [1] of the five [5] must be placed on the intended gate/doorway. The other four may be placed anywhere within the topic. Objects and people within the sealed area are protected from all harm unless either each of the five seals are dealt with, (each one requiring a C-ranked attack to destroy), or the seal is neutralized. - Side note: I'm more or less ignoring the protection on people, it's only for the building. But, if a technique you use on them would result in their death, I'm saying it'll knock them out instead and vice versa of course. - Sly Mind Affect Technique [ Kori Shinchuu no Jutsu ] โฐRank: C A rank โฐPrimary Sense: Sight โฐAdditional Senses: None โฐBase Duration: 3 Posts โฐUpkeep: 10 Chakra โฐTrigger: Being in building โฐSource: Visual Phantasm โฐStatus Effect: T3 Mental Stress โฐDescription: Sly Mind Affect is a Genjutsu technique which causes the target to travel around in circles. They see the false paths that are manipulated by the illusionist unfold before them. If the Shinobi is unable to detect the illusion, they can become exhausted mentally and physically when they are unable to reach their desired target by traveling along the same path over and over. Is allowed to be set down upon the environment as a seal, activating upon any person's presence. (this includes an accidental release by the user).
Coda's form slowly shifted back to her normal visage as she wandered the halls. Round the loop she went, returning to the thoroughly beaten pair of baddies. "Ha! A classic. I'm feeling more like playing the mouse though." It really was a shame that her bats finding their way resolved this situation so easily, she did like these sorts of genjutsu puzzle boxes. They presented an intellectual challenge quite different from that of combat. "Hey hey," the woman started, snapping her fingers in the direction of the shamed conscious man, "you got two options here. One, you can sit your a** here and I put you to sleep by force." She continued, approaching the window she'd come in on and forming a seal. "Or you can carry his a** over here and ride the bats, and I don't have to touch you again." The completion of the sentence was met by a trio of summons poofing into existence outside the window. For her part, Coda didn't much care. He'd get bit of projectile chakra to the side of the head if he didn't get up, but she was leaving on the bats, stepping onto Esmeralde. The significantly smaller D'Arcy took the larger bat's place as the Chunin took to the sky.
She didn't stray too far, considering the potential complications of her attempted strategic coup. A series of hand seals, followed by Coda holding out her hand, cast the Reverse Summoning Jutsu. If it worked, she'd pluck the VIP right out of the Viper's Nest, depositing them onto the back of Esmeralde in front of her, and suddenly the nature of the entire exercise would shift profoundly in her favor. The primary target would be up in her domain, as would two of the three assailants, leaving only the so far elusive third to play her way into the final checkmate. There were certainly some potential counters. A transformation jutsu replacing the VIP. Some kind of seal jamming, not out of the question considering the barrier. All that would require a little more preparation, however, and she was fairly confident that no one would expect a simple summoning jutsu to be used in this particular way. As such, why not try the unconventional, but easy way out and see if you were rewarded for your troubles. She had her backup plan laying in wait if the last piece on the board found the gap to survive another turn, but there was no need to expend the extra energy just yet.

The conscious man finally looked up upon Coda speaking to them. There was truly no resistance from the man as he picked up his comrade bridal style. Without a word he would follow Coda to the window, the bats seemed as terrifying as Coda's earlier visages to the man. However, he wouldn't dare stop following his instructions. With a quick step over the window ledge he would land on D'Arcy's back, quickly grabbing ahold of the creatures back and his comrade.
Coda's clever usage of the reversal technique was surely something that was certainly unexpected. The VIP appeared in a cloud of smoke squarely on the back of Esmeralde. "Hello! Who's there?!" The man thrashed around for a moment, to mostly no avail given his current tied up state. It was clear that if he was left to continue thrashing that he would eventually fall off the bat. While Coda was left to deal with the man, two balls of lightning escaped the forests cover headed towards both of the bats that carried all of the shinobi. If that wasn't enough a wooden dragon grew from the building shortly after Coda had taken to the sky, just now coming close enough to engage on Anton. The wooden dragon would attempt to coil around the summoned creature and crush it into being involuntarily unsummoned.

But, if a technique you use on them would result in their death, I'm saying it'll knock them out instead and vice versa of course. - Lightning Ball [ Raikyuu ] | Rank B | Variable (2 times; one for D'Arcy and Esmeralde) The user channels chakra into their hands, holding them out before them and forming a ball of lighting chakra that is approximately five feet in size. This ball of lightning is launched at it's target, causing tier two paralysis. This technique is considered A rank for evasive purposes. Alternatively, this technique may be launched from a sword if in hand. - Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique [ Mokuton: Mokuryลซ no Jutsu ] | Rank A (Heading for Anton) After performing the required hand seals, the user creates a gigantic wooden dragon from any surface, which is then directed to attack an intended target. Its shape closely resembles a Chinese dragon, though with a short trunk-like nose, having an elongated and serpentine body, which can be used to constrict larger opponents. It also has the ability to absorb a tailed beast's chakra once it is bound. This technique can bind either one demon or equivalent size or up to a dozen humanoid sized individuals. The amount of chakra drained from demons is equal to 300 chakra per post bound. In addition, humanoid sized creatures bound by the dragon suffer ten points of tenketsu rot per turn bound. When bound the target must pay the required cost atop the grappling status.
Ah, there it was. Coda did so love when a plan worked out exactly as she predicted. Of course, it helped that she was pulling the strings here. Although it seemed she might have been better of with Celeste in the mix, and it was unfortunate that sheโd had to summon away the VIP prior to the end of the examination. Still, one enemy remaining was decent odds. โSit still and youโll be fine, keep wiggling around and JUEI will be cleaning up a puddle of chunky marinara.โ Coda said coolly as she rolled off the side of Esmeralde and began plummeting towards the incoming ninjutsu. Her hand extended and for a second time she snatched away a ninjutsu from the remaining shinobi. Her body torqued as she fell, launching the same attack sheโd used to neutralize incoming Ninjutsu in the building. The two shinobi aboard DโArcy would get a good heat wave, but the bat would continue on entirely unperturbed. As unfortunate as it was to ask Anton to show up and send him away, he was the only bat not carrying anyone, so it didnโt really make sense for Coda to spend her dwindling resources or those of the others dealing with it.
Codaโs arms and legs flared out as she near the treetops and a small explosion arrested her fall. Above, the wood dragon attempted to grapple the bat, only to swipe through the dissipating smoke of the summon jutsu. Ideally none of the trio on the bats would do anything too stupid. With no one in the way she could let loose and draw this examination to a close. Though she wasnโt really looking forward to the foxโs assessment.

The man stopped moving almost the instant Coda told him to. It seemed he was pacified for the moment. As Coda was taking care of the other techniques that threatened to take out the bats, the man would begin to move again. Soon enough his restraints came loose and he forced himself into a sitting position upon the bat. Further explosions confirmed Coda was taking care of the distraction. The man lifted the blindfold off of his eyes before pulling out a kunai and quickly cutting his feet loose. The man formed a handseal immediately, transforming his arm into several wooden tendrils that would rapidly expand around Esmeralde. If she wasn't quick to act it would smother her into being unsummoned. Regardless of success, the man would quickly jump away from the bat / from where it was before forming wooden wings and propelling toward D'arcy, attempting to strike her in the face with a wooden sword. The sight of the man coming to the bat gave the conscious figure on D'arcy some hope that they would get out of this not captured. Yet he couldn't find the strength to help fight. The thought of going against Coda was still too much.
The figure in the woods wasn't finished as Coda countered both of her attacks. It was to be expected after all. The woman pulled lightning from thin air before thrusting her hand in Coda's direction once again. Without hesitation she continued her assault by bringing her hand to her lips and blowing out a tornado. The tornado would rapidly grow large enough to pull Coda in if she didn't prevent the attack.

But, if a technique you use on them would result in their death, I'm saying it'll knock them out instead and vice versa of course. - Wood Release: Smothering Binding Technique [ Mokuton: Mokusatsu Shibari no Jutsu ] | Rank A (Tier 3 paralysis on Esmeralde) By transforming their arm into a tree, the user can then create multiple branches which will rapidly grow around the target, immobilizing and causing tiered paralysis.For each rank of this technique, the user's wooden bindings may expand ten feet. Breaking free from this technique requires the rank of this technique atop the grappled status. Each turn the target is bound they suffering 3 point of tenketsu rot per rank of the technique. Alternatively, this can be used from any source of wood in the area. - Wood Release: Fluttering Wood Swallow [ Mokuton: Habataki Tengu ] | Rank S l Complex The user gains a pair of wooden wings on their back, as well as a wooden sword in their hands. As they take a stance to strike, the wings suddenly explode with chakra, propelling the user forward and destroying themselves in the process. This increases the speed of the technique by two ranks. Although the wooden sword is a blunt weapon, if this attack collides into the opponent, then the opponent suffers fifty points of tenketsu rot. - Thunder Clap Arrow [ Raiton: Jinraisen ] | Rank A The user encases their desired hand in chakra as it ignites in an aura of electircal energy. The user thrusts their hand toward a target, launching a bolt of lightning that has a stylized arrow head at it's forefront, reaching fifty feet in a single direction. This arrow treats armor techniques as one tier lower, piercing through targets and continuing it's path while losing one rank in power, traveling ten feet less than it's last maximum distance each time this is repeated. - Violent Whirlwind [ Ressenpลซ ] | Rank B The user performs a simple hand seal and blows across it to produce a powerful stream of wind from their mouth. If this stream of winds lands, in addition to dealing with itโs rank in damage the resulting attack is capable of lifting people or similarly-sized objects up into the air and preventing escape for single activation worth of time and allowing for a follow-up attack to find itโs mark. It is important to be noted that the opponent is by no means paralyzed and is capable of performing ninjutsu to defend themselves. As with most techniques, body flicker is also able to escape this technique.
There was a reason Coda chose to mark her target for extraction instead of approach them directly. Although sheโd kinda hoped the potential for the VIP to be a trap had been avoided when removing him from the building didnโt cause it to explode or something similarly unpleasant. She barely had time to activate chakra negation after landing before the remaining threat was on her. The fox had given them the all clear to play hard ball, fine. Sheโd stop playing nice too. Above, Esmeraldeโs voice split the sky and all of Codaโs opponents would find blackness momentarily. A focused explosion sent the Raiton arrow zipping under her left arm, and an open palm strike produced its own wave of unaspected chakra to counter the wind based jutsu. The woman had been patient previously, keeping the limitations of the drill in the back of her head, minding the situation she was in. It had worn thin with this one, however. She was about to give her VIP the experience that the quivering man riding Anton received, only heโd get the arguably worse trial of simply having to listen and imagine. The bats would make sure he didnโt throw himself to his doom like a fool, their soon-to-be sage was quite confident in that as she rolled her neck and began to advance on her final hurdle. โLetโs see how far all that flexibility you showed earlier lets your legs bend before I break them.โ

โฐ Forceful Wave | Rank X | Spiritual The user delivers a palm thrust in the direction of their target.

Opponents may pay chakra equal to the technique's rank in order to break from the forceful blast of this technique.

If the palm strikes the target directly, the user pays the cost of this technique in stamina in addition to its original cost to deal damage.

The tattoos were once again an effective tactic in this mission as it prevented much of what the VIP wanted to do. As he went to use his chakra, it was simply wasted. At the realization he couldn't use his chakra anymore, the man would jump from the bat. The timing on his jump couldn't have been worse as the screeching from the bat forced his vision into darkness. His plan to engage upon Coda was destroyed before it could have even been put into fruition, which left him falling to the ground and likely his death if not caught, but the bats would be able to catch him with no resistance. (No activation necessary to catch him, but you can let him die if you want.)
Once the woman found herself blinded she knew what she had to do. She would put herself into a defensive position immediately before hearing Coda loudly proclaim out where she was. Without hesitation the woman began to breathe out poisonous mist in the area surrounding her. If Coda were to be caught by this mist as intended, the poison would attack Coda's eyes immediately and blind her. The feeling of the poisonous mist would be akin to being pepper sprayed. She was not going to let this mouse get the best of her. Immediately following her last minute defense, the woman coated herself in an aura of lightning that would defend her from any physical confrontation.
- Poison Mist [ Doku Kiri ] | Rank B (Poison is T2 blindness: An eye for an eye) The user channels chakra within their belly, releasing a powerful stream that blankets a forty foot area before them. Those who inhale the gas have tier two poison status applied to them. - Lightning Strike Armor [ Raigeki no Yoroi ] | Rank B The user expels chakra around their entire body as an electrical disc appears above their body and washes over them, coating them in an electrical aura that defends the user from damage of the armor's rank and below with an upkeep of ten chakra per post. If the technique's original cost is met or exceeded with an attack it defends against the technique ends. Foes who make physical contact with the user during this state are dealt tier three paralysis on the limb connected to the point of contact. - -
The poison would find its mark as Coda advanced, eyes watering and finally sliding closed. Overhead Esmeralde toyed with the VIP diving along with him as he fell through the blackness and more importantly emitting a few chirps in the process. "HAAAA HAHahaha." The candidates cackle, menacing as it trailed off from it high point, coincided with the large bat snatching the VIP out of the air just in time for his toes to drag the ground. Any cessation in the Chunin's advance was short lived, as she continued marching forwards. "Blind as a bat. Interesting phrase, don't you think?" The musing was purely rhetorical, but even if it wasn't the woman would have no time to respond as a devastating gut shot delivered with the assistance of an after image to defeat the defensive technique found its mark. There was, perhaps, no worse sense to attempt to take from Coda than sight. Doing so wasn't leveling a playing field, it was just wasting chakra and effort. The bats of Echo Caverns didn't rely on light, and while not perfected yet, an eye for an eye trade was still s**t with her. A swift step and crouch by Coda would put her in position to throw a shoulder into her opponent, using a combination of hip throw and shoulder check in an attempt to bring them airborne. A shift of weight would then allow her to slam the woman down with bone breaking force. The JUEI had their fun with the previous candidates, but they were the ones who'd be getting dragged away in a heap this time.
โฐ False Strike | Rank X | Complex A technique that is executed at the rank of the simple or complex technique it is paired with, requires no activation. The user projects a chakra based illusory fist before the user's real strike. The illusory image moves [1] point faster than the user's real attack per rank.

โฐ Blind โฐCategory: Enchantment โฐRank: B โฐPrimary Sense: Chakra โฐAdditional Senses: - โฐBase Duration: 2 Posts โฐUpkeep: 20 Chakra โฐTrigger: Either catching sight of Esmeralda's wings, or hearing her screech. โฐSource: Mental Psychosis โฐStatus Effect: None โฐDescription: Esmeralde uses a genjutsu on the opponent to take away their sight from them. This jutsu is triggered by sight or sound based on how Esmeralde chooses. If sight, the opponent must look at her wings as she is channeling the chakra, if sound then all the opponent must do is hear her screech. The opponent will effectively be blind as their mind shuts out sensory signals from the eyes. This mimics tier four blindness for two post.
