Sukōchi stood at what seemed to be the gates of the village. Two teenage boys seemed to be sitting atop two, tall, wooden posts and there was a set of wooden doors between the two to serve as the gate. The wall around the village was made of the same type of posts, too. "What a quaint place... You there," he shouted in the direction of one of the boys atop the gates. "How about you let me pass through? I am here to demand tribute to the lord Tsukikage." The two boys atop the gates were no more than fourteen years old, but they seemed unfazed as if they had no fear as to what was coming.

The boys, after staring him down for a good minute, both burst out in laughter. "You want to take on both of us? On top of that, there's more of us on the inside! You won't make it! Right bro?" The second boy, whom upon closer examination looked exactly the same as the former, smile and laughed before speaking.
"You got that right, bro! And we're the best guards in the village! That's why the elder has us stationed here!" The boys jumped down from their posts and walked closer to Sukōchi, ignoring the heat and smell of his smoke. They didn't get close enough for it to burn them, though. "I think this guy won't leave, bro!"
"Yeah, I think you're right, bro! I wanna make sure he doesn't come back, either. Let me go first. If he still wants to fight after I beat him up, you can go ahead and beat on him a while." The first brother pulled out a kunai and then ran in towards Sukōchi. He got close quickly and soon got into the smoke cloud around the white-haired man. The burning set in, but the boy kept going in and lunged for a stab to Sukōchi's gut. The kunai slid in as if nothing was there. This was almost exactly that. Sukōchi had turned his mid section into a smoke and allowed the kunai to sit inside of him. A hand reached down and grabbed the attacking boy by the nape of the neck.
"You'll find that I'm definitely not so easy to get rid of." Sukōchi lifted the boy by the neck with his right arm as he took a toke of his long pipe using his left hand. Before the coughing set in, Sukōchi leaned in and kissed the boy with an open mouth, blowing all the smoke from his own lungs into the boy's. Stunned by this event, the boy did not resist and then collapsed to ground once Sukōchi let go. Immediately, Sukōchi began to hack and cough as he stepped away from the boy, whom was now writhing in pain, coughing away to get the smoke out of his lungs. The smoke inside his lungs felt as if it was a roaring inferno trying to burn away everything. In reality, it was quite similar. The heat of Sukōchi's smoke was strong enough to evaporate water and remove moisture from things that it touched. For this to do this level of damage, it had to be where it was, inside the body.
The second brother was left frozen, mouth gaped open, and just at a loss for words. His brother was just kissed by a man and was now uncontrollably regurgitating a deadly smoke. "Y-you're g-g-gay! You're ******** gay! What the actual ******** just happened!? What happened to my brother? FIX HIM!" As the boy shouted orders at Sukōchi to fix his brother, a needle flicked down and into the first brother's throat.
"I'm not gay, boy. I do what is necessary to defeat my opponents. Shock value is one of the greatest tools a shinobi possesses. It's too bad that you hadn't learned how to utilize such a weapon. You might have been able to further your shinobi career before this moment."

Sukōchi walked forward and pushed the boy to the ground. With a deathly glare, the white-haired boy spoke, "You would do best to stay where you are. I will end you, too, if you interfere further." He continued to walk towards the gates and was going to continue his raid on the village. Before reaching the gate, a strong force slammed into his back and dropped him to a knee. His body was stunned for a moment and he knew that it was a raiton ninjutsu. "So you chose to fight me anyway, boy?"
"A shinobi always fights to defend his home, no matter what stands in his way. I will stay here and I will do everything in my power to defeat you." The boy stood trembling, his hands prepared to use another ninjutsu, and tears were rolling down his face, likely because of the loss of his twin brother. Sukōchi stood up and wiped a bit of dirt off of his clothing and then looked at the boy. The battle would continue.
Sukōchi shot forward and launched a powerful punch directly at the boy's face. He tried to counter Sukōchi, but his body burst into smoke and then reformed on the other side. The smoke that covered the boy's body began to burn him and crawl into his lungs and burn his eyes. He was blinded for a moment and began to cough uncontrollably, making him drop to a knee. Sukōchi, once formed, had a kunai in hand and swiped at the boy, slashing him across the back. The cut was deep enough to do damage, but it wouldn't finish this fight.

Sukōchi didn't care to take his time on this. He had a mission and it was time to move forward. He dropped a heel down onto the back off the boy's neck and then pressed down harder and harder until he heard a snap in the boy's neck. With a smile on his face, he knew that the boy was dead. Sukōchi then walked towards the gates and pushed through simply by letting his body morph into smoke and simply move through openings in the wooden door, which also caught fire as he passed through. Sukōchi now stood on the other side of the gates and stared at many villagers going about their daily lives. He reached his hand out and let a snowflake land on it. This village was on the outskirts of Yukigakure, but didn't seem to get much snow, as he had not been affected yet by the weather. Maybe this would prove to be a harder part of the mission now that the weather was acting up.
Sukōchi pushed forward toward the center of the village, but was soon assaulted by a group of shinobi. They were all just regular people from what they looked like, but their stances gave away the fact that they were trained. Whether the training was enough or if it was going to get them kill would be up to how to they played their next moves. Three of them came in and all began to cut violently at him with blades, but they were all unsuccessful as they learned when the blades all just sifted through Sukōchi's body and the cut areas were replaced by smoke instead of him taking damage. Sukōchi quickly retorted by morphing his arm into smoke and shoving it down the throat of one man, causing severe burns to the inside of his body. He kicked the man away, who began to writhe around and then unsheathed his rapier, wielding it with finesse in his left hand.

The time for games wasn't now and Sukōchi did not want to mess around. He turned to the man on the ground and thrust his rapier into his stomach and then swiped to the side, eviscerating him. As his gut was sliced open, smoke launched out of him and his insides were actually boiling from the heat that Sukōchi's smoke created. Melted intestines began to pour onto the ground along with the stink of boiling blood and organs. The white-haired boy turned to the rest of the group and aimed the bloody rapier at them. "Who's going to end up like this next? I won't stop until I get what I came here for. You're all in my way and I won't let anyone stand in my way."
Sukōchi tensed up, feeling his lungs begin to shut. He didn't want to let this hinder him so he shot forward with his rapier and tried to stab into one of the men. He began to cough violently as he went in and his attacked was parried. Sukōchi fell to a knee and began to cough. Smoke exploded all around his body and pushed the men back because of the burning effect. While this was happening, Sukōchi's mind began to race. "Why is this happening to me? Why now am I suffering from this disease?" He barely managed to stand before someone came through the smoke, braving the burns, and slashed at Sukōchi. Not expecting the hit, he wasn't able to use the smoke body. He had to raise his rapier up for a block and was launched backward out of his cloud of smoke. The other men came rushing around and closed him in. "Well I guess you guys are stronger than I thought."

Standing in the center of the group of men, Sukōchi felt a little helpless, especially since his disease had begun to afflict him. He was still coughing, causing some more smoke to puff out of him. It wasn't enough to push them back, but it would be useful when it was time to attack. Knowing that his lungs wouldn't improve quickly, it was time to change his attack patterns. Sukōchi seemed to just collapse to the ground and turn into smoke. His body just dritted apart and melded into the smoke that was surrounding the men. There was thick enough smoke so that they didn't notice him reform behind one of the men and lunge his rapier into the man back. Sukōchi pulled it out and then jumped back, preparing to defend himself. The man he stabbed wouldn't be killed by that attack, but wouldn't be able to join their attack any time soon.
The men came in closer and were getting ready to attack. Sukōchi was prepared for the attack and would use his smoke body as much as he could to prevent taking damage. What he didn't expect, though, was one of the men snuck out of the group and got behind Sukōchi. The man grabbed him and put him in a full nelson. Sukōchi was caught off guard and all of the other came in and attacked. Just before the blades came in, though, he activated his smoke body and the man behind Sukōchi received the attacks from his group. Sukōchi reformed his body away from the group and then immediately performed a string of handseals. "I'm done with this. It's time to burn this whole village to the ground! BURN!!" Sukōchi screamed his last word before he shoved his palms forward and then let loose a massive blast of heat that washed over everything in front of him. Buildings that were caught in it instantly set fire and the people caught in it dropped to the ground while their skin wrinkled and became more like leather. It didn't kill them, but the diseases and illnesses they would succumb to would later kill them. Metal became to hot to hold, too. Everything just seemed to be destroyed by this ninjutsu. Sukōchi stood in the center of the village while everything burned and then black smoke rose into the air. That would be the signal for other members of his own village to clean up and raid. Sukōchi would take part in that before he left.
USED Inferno Wave - C By kneading Chakra in the stomach and expelling it through the mouth the user fires a heatwave that spreads over a fifteen meter distance. These waves are as strong as B rank wind techniques while also setting fires to the area afflicted and removing any moisture from the air that could be used for water techniques in that area. An enemy caught in the fast moving heatwave will suffer from immediate dehydration and receive up to second degree burns. In addition metal becomes too hot to be held if caught in the wave.
