Welcome to Gaia! ::

Not to be out done by the other two, LT attempted to turn it up a notch. He focused on his speed but the tearing and ripping seemed to sped through his body adding to fuel his motivation. He increase his steps and lengthened his stride but when he did so his foot wen through the floor and he stopped instantly, growling in pain. He glanced back to where they were running. All three of them seemed to burn trenches in the floor. And each step LT took seemed to have small craters. Looks like he would have to work on more control and a little less strength. After pulling his leg out of the whole LT sat down on the floor and fell on to his back. He shouted showing that he was clearly annoyed with the pain. "CAN I HAVE SOME DRUGS NOW!!! PLEASE!!! He arms felt like they were getting torn off and his legs felt like they were skinned and set on fire.

Turning around and seeing Blade, Luo sighed at what he said. "I know," he muttered to the man, realizing the deep trenches in the tile, as well as the small craters they had all left behind. "I have been contemplating the use of a particular set of artifacts entrusted to the mist since days of old. However, I need to study them more before deciding what I should do with them." Luo knew that hidden within the walls of a particular building in the village, was a set of powerful rings. They were not to be taken lightly, so Luo needed to first pick up the scroll on them and read up on each and every one of them before making a decision. He then turned to Rein to answer his question. "Your muscles are beginning to evolve. You have not known the seventh stage for long so it will not take effect for a few months, but new ligaments will form and coil to create enough muscle flexibility and strength for an eighth stage. Unless you feel like finding the only barrier specialist who knows the time barrier jutsu so you can speed up the process, your only option is to either run at the seventh stage for two and a half weeks straight, or wait it out."

EDIT.

"It's the chakra edge technique...you coat the blade..." Blade explained as he continued running around. Continuing with the speed of Stage 7, Blade's muscles continued tearing apart. "the blade with your chakra, giving it a sharper and longer edge," Blade explained to him.

"Ok, Blade I'm heading back to my village now." Blaze put the scroll in his holder and drop the kantana he had on the floor as he would get a new sword once he got back to the village. Blaze walked out the front door.

Zane stopped dead in his tracks as the new shinobi entered the facility. "Uh what...?" Zane stuttered. "What's up?" Zane asked embarassingly as he moved his shoulders in a circular pattern, trying to stretch them out. He refused to do any healing as Luo said and took the pain. "LT, if I can take it so can you," Zane told him as he approached Rein.

((He has a post of his clone leaving where you guys were and going up to the secretary to go to the kage training area. Then the clone left to get him and tell him what was up. That's how he got there.))

((Agreed. We'll just say he came up there or something.))
Staring at the box and back up at Zane as he took it, Luo sighed shaking his head. "I see. Well, good work I guess." As he looked at it, Luo dusted it off a little by blowing on the rather ostentatious antique box, before finally opening it, revealing six rings. "What I know of these rings is that their power increases the user's chakra to two shinobi ranks permanently if it's abilities are tapped into. They are part of a group of three sets of rings called the Tri-ni. I know only of one other set that I've seen and they are the ones worn by the Akatsuki. In total, the rings are said to have aided in the creation of the world, and can lead to its destruction. The mist village was given the Hell Rings, six rings given to the village found to have had the most bloodshed, saying demons rose from the mist in the form of seven swordsmen. However, that is also the drawback. If you tap into it's power for too long, you become deranged, psychotic, almost demonic in nature. That's what I wanted to look into. I was trying to figure out how to counteract those effects, but I highly doubt that even if I look into it, I'll come up with something. The true essence of the rings are their abilities to mold the base abilities of each ring to the user. Each one is capable of granting the user five distinct jutsu of at bare minimum S-Rank because mist swordsmen can't be genin anyway. Usually the newest selected member of the mist 7 is the one who does not receive a ring, however at the moment there are only six of us. You will all have to train with these rings extensively. It won't be as hard as you think since they have a tendency to help speed up the process." As Luo looked at the rings, he knew which one he'd give to each person. The character of SSOM usually was maintained through each generation.
