Welcome to Gaia! ::

Akira simply frowned. That technique rarely worked without proper planning, but that was the first time it had been taken out in such a fashion. This fight was going to take preparation. The problem was the Akira had no idea where to start, He would still feel out this Richard, but he did not expect to find a weakness to exploit, most certainly not one that would end this battle easily. Still, he had all the time in the world to figure that out. Akira preformed another set of handsigns. This time he used the lunar destruction technique. Richard would feel his chakra draining from him. He would be surprised, and a little disappointed if Richard could find a way out of this. Of course if he doesn't He will quite simply pass out in half an hour. He then turned to Akai, "Do hurry up."

"Wait.. You think I'm on your side?" Akai chuckles, rolling his ice cold gray eyes in their sockets as he lifts his final weapon. The Zanbato and returns it to it's place, sheathed and held in his left hand. "You'll be dead soon enough." Akai shrugs, and leans back against the tree he had been thrown into earlier. Watching for the time being, he'll get to see the suddenly interupting male die, and then perhaps return to the fun he was having with the undead male known as Richard. As if nothing had happened of course. Akai chuckles as he watches, the Zanbato set against the tree at his side, as he crosses his arms across his chest.

Problem was that, even if there were clones, the lock on look would be the only one copied. Since this guy does not know the technique, he could not, and would never be, able to copy the ability of Lock On. The Channel technique would continued, swerving through the clones continuing towards the real Akira to hit him. While that was happening, Richard continued a few hand seals, rain falling from the sky was going to be useful here as well as the large amount of puddle waters all under. Richard used the Symphony of Water technique which caused all the water around to turn black and rise from the ground heading towards the Akira's. But since the Lock On was only working for the Channel right now, Richard had to manually manipulate the black waters to completely surround Akira within a complete hollow sphere. If this guy was to even so touch this water, he'd be poisoned and die within minuets. In addition, if Akira was to either harm the dome or manage to beat the Channel technique and survive, the sphere would converge inwards to kill the man that way.

((Edit: oh yeah, the Symphony of Water technique is in Hidden Shadow in the Hall of Fame. However, the other mods never really said anything about not using the techniques so we are still able to use them if we had learned from there before.))

((Bit of a problematic technique, but that does not bother me.))

Akira was going to have a lot of problems. He was incorporeal, basically mist, but he did not have the power to simply float through this technique. He thought about it and the easiest way to go through this was to simply wait it out. Richard would run out of chakra in a short enough time and both the channeling technique and this dome would be gone. However, he thought that that would be simply boring. Just waiting for the technique to end. He thought about all of the techniques that he held and decided that a lot of them were not worth risking. Instead he decided to use one technique against another. As the channel technique was moving through him again and again Akira decided to move towards the wall of the dome. The channel had the power to destroy three mountains, so making a hole in this dome would be simple enough. Akira was right next to the wall when the channel technique simply broke through it. Akira quickly moved through the hole caused by the channel technique. This channel technique would be a lot more useful than he thought.

((To bad. That technique will still be in effect. Anyways, maybe you should ask for more people to come by? Help add to the effort against Richard?))

Richard looked and watched as he saw a bit of the sphere was destroyed due to the attack. However, the man could not stay in that form forever as anyone can prove. Richard merely stood there, not really having to use any other technique since the water from the rain would continue to down pour upon the Hidden Village in Rain. But as the drops would reach his range (which was rather large, by the way) it would turn black but continue to fall as rain. As soon as Akira would return to being a solid once more, he would end up signing his own fate and end up paralyzed, soaking within the water so the water would leak into the bloodstream and kill him from within.

Akira sighed. This was getting dangerous. Hideo was going to end up in some dangerous trouble. He decided to try out Lunar destruction again. It would seem that now it would be a race for time, He knew that the technique that he was using was draining his chakra, even with the steps that he could take to slow his chakra drain. Performing another string of chakra once again he released a large amount of bubbles of the unpoppable variety which wafted around the battle field. They would leech body fluids and chakra from people before popping.

"Why threaten family... cousin...?" the voice floated out through the rain, the sound of the rain dampening his already quiet voice. Six figures seemed to appear from rain adding a third member of the family into the mix. Kama was one of the shorter of the 6, four of them were all around the same size while the other two were of the more adult size. They all wore the same basic black cloak which overshadowed most of their faces leaving them somewhat anonymous. It didn't exactly make too much sense for family to be trying to kill family, they were a very controlling group of individuals, but too threaten death too another cousin was something only an outcast like Sassori would do. He got the feeling that he knew this man at some point, but he didn't have a particular identity for him. "I'm Akasuna no Kama, I came to see what was going on around in these parts," Kama looked out into the rain looking at the distance that it changed from a cool clear liquid into a deadly black poison.
