Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yuna had no protection, both his hands were occupied, he would've been decimated if it wasn't for his primal instinct. He swung his decaying arm that gripped the Kusanagi towards the torrents. The Kusanagi screamed, it was deafening even through the resistance of the waters. 8 distinct tones. A massive shockwave erupted from the cursed bladed, actually dividing the waters. It sliced straight through the clones and their torpedos rendering the attack obsolete and effectively destroying the clones. The shockwave didn't stop there, it actually collided with the side of the shore, making a good part of it submerge with the grace of an elephant, and creating a make-shift pier. Mai would have to watch out for falling rocks.

When the commotion and bubbles cleared one could see the bodies of about half of the clones were still there, but they were disintegrating like bread in water. Yuna was too far away from most of them to see it, but they seemed to be made a gelatin like fleshy substance.

"How dare you use that sword!" Issui voice echo through the waters as if he surrounded Yuna all at once. "It was not sealed here so that it would be claimed and used, it sealed here so that it could be destroyed later!"

"If you wish so greatly for the Orochi I will give him to you!"

An instant later Issui said "Ichi, Ni, San, Yon Atama Gansuiritsu-no-Orochi!"

The water churned with unrest as four enormous heads were formed from much of the water around them, effectively quartering the amount of water left (about 1/4 used toward the jutsu).

When they took full shape they appeared like hyrda heads, heads shaped like dragon serpent demons themselves.

"Now you drop the blade and leave or you die!" Issui said as all four heads instantaneously struck as one, moving as fast as Issui did underwater.

Asakura shifted his angle and hopped to the left without reducing his speed and continued the sprint, his hands fixed in the final seal. The rock speed past him.

Nika acted swiftly, she moved fast, even faster than the Orochi. She gobbled Yuna up and spat him out to the surface instantly. The Orochi's strike pierced through Nika, and she exited the physical plane with an underwater implosion. Yuna fumbled as he broke through the waters. He twirled aimlessly and skipped across the water like a stone before gaining any sort of footing. He was right near the pier and he found that he was standing next to a very breathless young girl. With the aid of his other free hand, he lifted the arm that wielded the kusanagi and lodged it into the width of the pier. "You. Girl. Do something for the greater good, guard this sword with your life. I'm putting my life in your hands." Yuna said to Mai, without expecting an answer. It was not something he would usually do, but giving the intensity of the situation, it was all he could do and he meant every word of it, you could tell that much by his tone. The scales broke of his arm and dissolved into nothingness, revealing his arm was scared in several different place. Scars that would never heal.

Tobasu chose to attack Asakura with a devastating uppercut.

Ganeni was vastly covering more and more of the ground and so far 5 pillars were formed to support the cave. Just a little more and this would be his playground.

Asakura anticipated a fist attack and instinctively let it pass to the side of him with practiced ease. "Hachishouka no Jutsu!" His voice echoed throughout the cavern. He released his hand from the seal and pressed both palms against Tobasu's hairy body. To Tobasu it would seem that a fist grabbed him from the inside and tugged him away from Asakura with freakish force. A Fuuton Jutsu.

Asakura didn't expect Tobasu to recover so fast and wasn't ready for the oncoming onslaught.

Asakura was hit, hard and square in the cheek, he didn't fall back though. Streaks of crimson blood flowed freely from his nose and he spat out a couple of teeth. "You son of a b***h." He said, suppressing a grin.
