Welcome to Gaia! ::

The large globe of energy the previously levitated above the village now seemed to have come to a halt. With the beast no longer unleashing the savage cannon of energy from its mouth, things seemed a little settled down. The massive earth beast let out a howling cry that sounded full of sorrow. Almost as if it had given all it had in that single blast. Large yellow eyes shifted in their rocky sockets as the beast finally took notice of all the ninja that were now attempting to fend it off. This gave the beast a feeling of threat, and its body began to retaliate.
The large, mountainous regions throughout the beast's body began to protrude even more, like hairs on animals do when they feel threatened or angered. The large beast lifted its massive head as high as it possible could and let out another ear splitting cry. to the ears that heard it, unbearable headaches would trouble them for a few quick minutes. Large pieces of the beast began to fall from it, but these didn't turn into any sort of monster; they simply were large pieces of the beast falling apart.
The miniature golems and stone kiwi creatures continued to pursue the ninja that had come to halt the beast. Those who were within the barrier would find themselves being bombarded to rampaging golems and sticky tar covered tongues lashing out at them.

Shisui looked around the shop shortly after he had finished his bowl of ramen noodles. It was quite quiet now, except for the occasional scream from a bystander looking up into the sky and remembering the giant beast was there. Then, as if by a magical power, the wind picked up and a piece of paper flew into the ramen shop, and landed right in front of Shisui. He picked it up and read it carefully, then blinked.

"Seven Legendary Swordsmen? What the hell?"

He looked at the giant Head Cleaver sitting next to him, leaning against the counter at which he sat. Shsui grasped it by the handle and picked it up with a single hand, amazing the cook who stared in awe. As he did so, the stove behind him caught on fire.

"This thing is that special, huh? Well I guess it can't hurt to find out what this group is..."

As soon as Shisui crumpled up the paper and threw it into the flames that had consumed the stove which the cook had just found out about, Shisui stood up, slung the giant sword over his shoulder and walked out of the ramen shop. The gigantic creature above him lead out another loud roar of sorts, and grew slightly larger.

"Ah, shut up already! Whining little brat. I swear, this village is the breeding ground for hell spawn."

Shisui continued on towards the village gates, and exited through them. The guards were concerned about opening them, but after a second or two inside one of his Genjutsu's they opened it for him. Shisui looked up at the beast in the air one more time then closed his eyes and shook his head. Hopefully he wouldn't have to return any time soon, because this place was the epicenter for chaos. So, on he went, and headed for the docks for who knows where.

Three figures all wearing masks with a strange symbol walked into the building and sat at a table in a dark corner of the room. It was not long before a waitress walked up to the trio and stopping cold, as if frightened by something but a calm, yet dull voice from one of the three said, "Beef Ramen, Wonton Soup, Spicy Crab Ramen, two orders of Tuna, and a bottle of Sake, if you please." The waitress merely looked at the trio, wondering what the hell was up with that before turning and heading into the back where the kitchen was, as if she was afraid that the three was going to destroy the entire building if they were to stay. Yet, those who would remember members of a cult way back when would recognize from their masks that they were part of the 'Friend' organization, a group of people trying their best to fix all the wrongs in the world and saving those whom are weak... However, they have not been seen for so long. On their masks was the 'Friend' symbol, an eye with a hand for a pupil and another eye in the middle of which the meaning is unknown and rumored to be unknown to even 'Friend.' The trio merely sat there while one of the three, however, was playing around with the utensils and condiments as if he was a 5 year old child. The other two merely looked down towards their hands and patiently waited for their meals to come. Not long after that, the girl from the back returned and handed them their food and drink before quickly retreating to leave them to their meals.

Lifting up the mask to only the point where their mouths and lower portions of their nose could be seen, the trio started to eat. But not long after they started eating, all the plates were empty and stacked. Two of the three looked at the last member of 'Friend' since the man had eaten the majority of the food before they even got half way done and they didn't have much to eat in the first place. However, they did not let him part take in the drinking of the sake. For what reason? It was known only to them. Suddenly, the trio stood up and proceeded to head towards the front door before the one that had spoken to order stopped and turned his head towards Kanji, pulling the mask completely over the exposed portions of his face. The man kept his face towards Kanji before the female behind him gave a quick shove at his back telling him not to hold up the line that was forming behind them to exit the building. The man looked towards the female before turning his head towards the man who had just finished his meal before slipping out the exit with the other two. The sake on the table was gone and a small pile of money was left there, apparently more than enough to cover the foods and the sake bottle they took with them. However, they would not have left the village but rather, they would wait outside the door due to the first man's persistence, waiting for Kanji to emerge from the building.

(Sorry Gate for the REALLY late reply. Thought you left.)

"So you have heard of 'Friend' and remembered it," said the first male as he slipped his hands into his pockets. To his left was the female who was slipping the sake bottle into a bag that she had and to the man's right was the other man, looking around and playing with his fingers like an idiot... Or rather like the idiot he was. The female finished stuffing the bottle into her bag before looking towards the first man and then said, "Are you sure you want to show him that?" The man in front of Kanji turned towards her and said, "Yes. We are in need of new members after all. Ever since we started, we only have had a small number of ninjas in our group and without anything bigger, we will be defenseless when it comes to a surprise attack. Besides, it is best to spread the word about the group." Turning back to the man, he said, "I believe you can help our organization out but first, we would like to take you to our main quarters. There, we will explain everything and introduce you to 'Friend.' Are you willing to come with us?" All the time the man spoke, it was all monotoned and dull as well, not very professional but no one would ever know what he would actually be thinking at least.

But just as Kanji sighed, Ginsa placed a hand upon his blade that was at his left side. "I'm glad to hear that you would like to help us out. That was all that is needed for a response. Now, if you are looking to train with anyone, I would be glad to test my strengths and weaknesses against you. My name is Ginsa Hyumon of the Greek clan," said Ginsa as he kept the mask on and slowly drew forth the blade, letting the edge run over his left fingers which held the sheath. At the same time, the blood automatically ran the length of the blade, covering it and hardening it in shapes that looked a bit demonic before he leveled it the point at Kanji. Ginsa then said, in a dull, monotoned voice, "Ready your blade for what is to come."

The other two merely stood there, not too far from Ginsa and well in range of getting hurt if a spread attack was used. It was as if they trusted Ginsa to protect them if an attack like that was used and they cared not of his consequences if that occurred.

(Blood Transformation Technique from Hidden Blood.)

(This is the chain heading towards Ginsa right?) [Edit]

Ginsa watched as his opponent drew out his blade and a chain with a heavy weight at the end of it almost instantly like he wanted to kill him in the first place. Ginsa remained as he was without an expression on his face due to his lack of emotion and lifted his left hand which was still bleeding from having cut itself on his blade. Just as soon as he did, a Blood Dragon shot forwards from the wound and towards the katana before colliding with the weapon. This would effectively slow the weapon down in speed and lower its momentum. But as the dragon was collide with the blade, it was destroyed into many blood droplets heading mainly in Kanji's direction. This was too close for Kanji to avoid all of them so it was for certain that the blood would end up somewhere on his person. As the blade would still continue towards Ginsa's left kneecap, Ginsa activated his Nemean Lion Defense which made it so his skin was like iron armor in which when the blade collided, it did nothing more than cutting the clothing. Ginsa retaliated by swinging towards the right wrist which held the Katana, knowing that the splattered blood would give him some sort of coverage from the attack he was going to do but not complete coverage.

The other two looked towards each other before walking to the side, staying out of their way so the two can fight without holding back because they may be harmed in the process.

As kanji was looking at ginsa he noticed that there wasa blood type dragon coming towards him as well as kanji was watching it splatter along the side of the katana befor collideing with ginsa's knee cap with a iron type defense. Kanji took his left hand and moved it in front of his right hand so that the in coming katana swing from ginsa would be blocked as well and a clinging sound being made. kanji took his wrist and tilted it to the side as well as he moving it towards the sheath. kanji took his katana and sheathed it back on his back as well as getting infront of ginsa doing a certain amout of hand sign's as well and placing a hand over his mouth. kanju used the Fire dragon blast. making a fire dragon come from his mouth right infront of ginsa's face.
