Ken of the Long Knives
Sunagakure's Butcher
Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, they cling to the realm or the gods or love. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
Chakra: 425/425 Stamina: 555/555
Knives arrived at the dojo grounds and noticed that Kamiya had already arrived. "Seems I'm not the only one who's hands require training with a blade, and perhaps more than that." he chuckled taking a seat to close his eyes for a moment a rest. However, he would not allow Shukaku to take over his body as he could feel him wanting out. So to calm himself, and get some rest. He took the time to feel his chakra flow within him and to find his place of calm and quiet. He had not had the chance to practice this as a younger ninja so he figured he had better perfect things.
As he sat he took a moment to make hand signs with his hands without a blade. He continued this until the muscles within his body would move quickly and almost as a second nature to him. However, for Knives it was more than that, he needed to be able to handle signs with one hand, or a hand that was slightly used. He took one of his smaller knives from his belt and practiced his time using signs with a knife in hand until it was no longer awkward. To begin it felt awkward and cumbersome. However, after a time it became to become more natural for him to move with a hand holding a knife. It was an unusual thing but none the less learning able. For all things were able to be learned were they not?
Knives felt his Chakra flow through him and begin to encompass his hands. He would have to train to hold it into one area and perhaps his blades, he had not practiced that technique to it's fullest just yet. He continued to move his hands quickly with his blade in one. Once he felt comfortable with the blade in his right hand making signs he moved over to his left. For a ninja should always practice with both hands, what if they were to lose one. Making the signs with his left hand filled was even more awkward than with the right hand. However, he began to manage and felt the chakra still flowing in his hands and soon the movement of his hands were almost normal. He began to envision the flow of his chakra and attempted to discuss things with the Shukaku while he meditated.
'So, mister big mean and angry, how are things? I mean we've seen some action and for that matter you've enjoyed it.'
'I suppose it's not all bad. Wait, what were you going to do with those heads by the way?'
Knives continued his movement of hand signs and feeling chakra flow through him, in fact it almost felt like he was gaining chakra, perhaps the Shukaku was helping?
'Oh yes those, I should deal with those quickly before the become even more smelly, particularly the one that is charred. Though I thought about making a necklace with the teeth, and for San I have a nice house warming gift.'
Knives opened his eyes with a smile from his meditation feeling refreshed and much better before pulling out a bowl from the dojo and the heads that were beginning to smell quite ripe. He took out an older blade and began to remove the skin, glad for once Kamiya was blind though he probably could smell them. He decided that he needed to move quickly before they both passed out from the smell.
After a few hours of cleaning and on and off resting Knives decided it was time to head off to Takumi. Everyone was busy and so it seemed to him that it would just be easier to spend his time going off by himself. He was Jounin now.. he had a lot and he knew a lot to do and little time to do it. Who knew when the next exams or the next challenge might have been, and he needed to sit down and train until he could train no more.

AN EYE FOR AN EYE,
A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH. AND EVIL FOR EVIL.
Seeing Knives arrive Kamiya gave a quick wave and muttered something about having next to no training and suna being a magnet for trouble. he quickly decided he'd have to get to work on a new style and picked Hsing-i Pakua which was a popular one back at the monastery he came from.
Kamiya began to meditate and think upon the various aspects of the world around him. Fire, being the breath of life to many things also is very deadly. Powerful and strong in its force and Kamiya knew that to encompass it he would need to become powerful like fire. Meditating on this for a short time he began to notice how through simply force of will he would be able to aid himself using the concept of a bursting fire.
Following this newfound concept for his martial arts he began to meditate upon the force of the earth. Strong, and steady, yet ever active with change. He knew that earth was powerful and could provide a great addition to his thoughts. Meditating upon this he found he was able to empower his attacks for a more defensive use.
The next thing that came to mind about his surrounding world was water. Or lack thereof as the case may be. Water flowed smoothly and is formless. Yet water also had a hidden power. Soft yet strong water could be used to drill through objects. With the use of water he could drill an attack through armor when applied properly. Meditating on this he would begin to find he had the power to do so.
Metal, the man killer. Iron could equalize a weaker man with a stronger one. The cutting strength and durability of metal, drawing forth the power of any strike. This was what could make a normal punch something to be feared. meditating upon this would lead him to be able to use this within his martial arts to empower the strikes.
One last thing that he knew he’d be able to integrate into his martial arts was wood. With branches stretching out and roots digging deep, trees have an unseen power. The roots and leaves work in tandem to feed the tree and keep it strong. Using this to further the essence of wood and its many ways, Kamiya began to see how this would improve the ability to combine varying different techniques.
(Fire: Bursting [Hou: Pao] learned, Earth: Crossing [Tu: Heng] learned, Metal: Splitting [Jin: Pi] learned, Water: Drillng [Shui: Zuan] learned, Wood: Smothering [Mu: Beng] learned)

╚══════════════════════════════════════════╝
Observing Knive's skill, San gave a smile. Leave it to a buki man, a close range expert, to find a way to make his weapons reach farther, and pull the enemy in and close the distance. Damn, that was a genious design. San took the skull and reversed summoned it to his house.
"Well thats impressive. You wanted to know the style that man used against you? I just so happen to know a master in the style. But like i said, while he teaches you, teach me Shunkan no Hagane."
San reverse summoned Aioko, the fast and swift red Panda. The panda looked to San, then to the tower that was knives, then back to San.
"Well, then....i feel like i am about to do something fun?"
"Yeah, can you teach this man Jing Shen Jie Fang? Your the swiftest ninja around."
"But the style requires swiftness.....he....he....he is too big to be swift."
"You will find that he is plenty swift"
"Whatever you say Bo-bo. You ready to train tower man?"
San looked back to Knives, seeing if he would take the offer to teach him Shunkan for the art of Jing Shen Jie Fang.
