I didn't mean it like that, I worded it wrong. I'm sorry!

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Who hired this idiot?!? Taiyo thought before looking at the matchups, he noticed that he was up against some guy named Lako, this would be fun.
Alright, so I am going up against a guy I barely know, well, lets just get it over with.
He went to the couch and took a nap, just to restore some extra energy that he exterted from his run.

Your supposed to be going to the floor and arena not sleeping lol

Also, GodJacob, Zaku is waiting for her in the arena

 

[SageNeb]

besides, I'm like 99.9% sure ninjas dont just have couches lying around in battle areas XD

Darn it, I knew I forgot someone. Just givem me a second to edit.

 

[sSoul]

Well Taiyo is le idiot, plus he is tired, let a man schleep.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Well he would be disqualified otherwise, because the battle need to take place. That’s the point of this exam, fighting even if fatigued

 

[sSoul]

I'll post then, but I'll leave

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Leave what?

 

[sSoul]

The original post, i frogot to finish the post, so sorry

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Everyone’s going to their respected arenas to fight their opponet meanwhile Taiyo is just watching lol. I’m sure lako is confused

@Godjacob Is that earth jutsu Tomiko used a canon jutsu or custom jutsu? I tried searching for it but I couldn’t find it. That leads me to another question for @Shen: Ghost Gym Leader Are we allowed to use custom jutsu?

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Technically, yes, as long as you explain how it works. And I also have to check if it’s OP or not

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

though if it’s just a rendition of an existing justu, it should be okay-d without much thought. for example: A Water Hyrda jutsu compared to Water Dragon. Similar justu, except Stronger and more jutsu cost. Variants are automatically fine

Custom jutsu. I figured it was nothing too crazy, just three earth slabs used to cover the user and block things. I should start looking up actual canon jutsu to that not everything is just custom from my OCs.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Earth jutsu has a lot of defensive abilities so it makes sense. Jirobo Spammed defensive earth techniques after all. I’m fine with it.

 

[Retro Master]

I’m pretty sure I know what Jacob is gonna have Tomiko do. The problem is having Kiro set up a counter even though in character, Kiro doesn’t know what Tomiko is capable of doing. It’s tricky but I think I might be able to write it with a good explanation. Kiro will also use a canon jutsu too so there shouldn’t be any inconsistencies.

 

[Godjacob]

Okay, just gonna totally perfectly predict all of Tomiko's moves now without the Sharingan are we? XD

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Welll In all fairness earth is a broad power, he’s just trying to cover all his bases on what earth power might come at him, almost to the point of being paranoid.

 

[Godjacob]

I get that reasoning, just feel it's gonna make it hard for Tomiko to do anything against him if he reads her moves because of that. Worry she'll lose without him even using a Sharingan. But that's just my paranoia I suppose XD

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Kiro is so far one of the strongest of us, in the sense where he finished first in all the exams so far, so it’s not going to be easy to beat him. Even Kakashi was suspicious of how quick he was progressing.

 

[Godjacob]

Technically we don't know how he measures up to the rest of us given he has not fought any of our characters till now. I agree he'll be a challenge, no question about it.

Though I already am worried about this guy. Seems like a foregone conclusion he'll win this thing. By the way working on replies but dad is getting ready for a friend's funeral so I need to help him get ready. Apologies for the delay.

 

[Retro Master]

I think it’s a reasonable guess considering that even Naruto was able to do it against Neji. If Naruto could do it at that level, then anyone could do it. If anyone could do it, then Kiro would be able to know that he should also be watching out for that technique. That’s why I figured that I could also show Kiro’s logical side as well. From a judge’s standpoint, Kiro is showing that he would be able to analyze the situation and predict his opponents move.

I thought the sharingan could only predict handsigns and movements? If Kiro was able to predict an opponents attack then he shouldn’t have been caught off guard during Tomiko’s first attack.

The thought process that Kiro went through would’ve been like this: This person is from the hidden stone. She’s covered herself with rocks, trapping her inside but also away from my vision. She’s most likely using this time to figure out a counter. How could she counter attack? She is inside so she can’t see me so performing a projectile technique would be unlikely. Her only choice would be either to show herself or somehow perform an upclose attack. The only way for her to come close without him possibly noticing would be to come from underground.

Kiro used the flames to cover the slabs to prevent her from coming out unless she wanted to be burned.

Then in order to prevent himself from being attacked from underground, he used the lighting technique as a counter. If she appeared near him, she would be struck by the lightning.

And yeah, the goal here is not to use the sharingan... so sorry if I’m having Kiro bring out the stops this early. The quicker the battle, the less chakra he’ll have to use. If Kiro was using sharingan, he would’ve handled the situation without worry for a counter considering that his eyes would allow him to quickly react if he was attacked from underground.

 

[Godjacob]

I get all that it is perfectly logical and such. Though don't expect for Tomiko to be such a push-over you'll beat her without the need to use one. She is the future Tsuchikage by her own words and I did not give her that goal out of fluff.

Kiro is not the only strong Genin here, is my main point. And the stress of getting dad to his funeral and all the stupid stuff he is asking of me just is making me stressful and assuming the worst about how Kiro will be written. Unfair to you and I apologize.

 

[Godjacob]

@Retro Master what happens if Tomiko grabs Kiro's legs for a Headhunter Jutsu? Does the electric current travel down through his body to her as she tries to pull him down?

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Even if that were to happen, the earth acts as a natural dampener to electricity similar to rubber. It acts as ‘ground’ and electricity travels through that, acting as a deterrent from the body. People have survived lightning strikes by being submerged in mud or ground.

 

[Retro Master]

From what I’ve seen, it would. As for Shen’s statement, the jutsu specifically states that it goes for the liquid in one’s body. I was planning to use the jutsu to destroy the rocks from Tomiko’s first attack and counter her punch but then I realized it only latches on to things with liquid. Even if the electricity went to the earth, this specific technique would still go through the person.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Not to mention electricity is deadliest when concentrated. When in the ground, not only is the ground naturally dampening it, but it spiders out across the ground, even if homing to the liquids of one’s body, it still must be chewing through the ground to do so, weakening the overall attack. Think about how electricity attacks in Pokémon do nothing to ground types lol.

 

[Godjacob]

I think the attack would still bleed into the ground around Tomiko (As she'll be underground except her hands) to limit the blow, but I got a general idea of what to write now. Working on my post as fast as I can but STUPID DAD NEEDS LIKE A MILLION FAVORS AND I CAN'T JUST STAY AND TYPE!

 

[Godjacob]

@Bluetail you are needed. Zander is waiting to start his fight with your character.

 

[Retro Master]

Sorry for taking so long but I’ve actually been researching the specifics of electricity. Shen, you said electricity is most deadly when it is concentrated. Now that Tomiko has both hands attached to Kiro, that means all the electricity is going straight into her hands first. Yes Tomiko is in the ground but the electricity is still going through her hands. She is basically a lightning rod. Now before I go on, I have to ask @Godjacob a question. What type of gauntlets are she wearing?

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

If it’s direct contact, even if she’s in the ground, it would definitely do something, weather little or no. The exit and entry points will have the most damage done to them due to the physics of lightning. However, since the lower portion of her is submerged in ground, the portions exposed to air will get the more brunt of the damage

Precisely my point...

 

[Godjacob]

I did write it hurt Tomiko, and I do intend to show some lingering effects in my succeeding post. Though between the ground and Tomiko being the most durable of my OCs I figure she could tough it out.

Type of gauntlets? Can you clarify what you mean?

 

[SageNeb]

are you gonna make it last minute rubber or something so it nullifies damage basically, that's what I'm guessing he's asking from my point of view

 

[Godjacob]

Nah, her gauntlets are consistent. Though not all metal conducts electricity. Not everything is a lightning rod, which I know is what he is going for XD

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Uh oh. She has a metal headband doesn’t she? On her head?

 

[Retro Master]

Uh oh. She has a metal headband doesn’t she? On her head?

I didn’t even think of that...

 

[Godjacob]

Again, not all metal is conductive. Otherwise any lightning jutsu would have done critical damage to any ninja in the series since most wear headbands on their heads. And really it would give an unfavorable edge to any lightning-jutsu based characters.

Kenji: I don't see the problem with that.

Though I don't know if I have specified where characters headbands are. Gotta check intro posts.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Then again, most lightning users don’t do an entire shocking thing. They usually just shape in in the form of a blade or a blast. But there’s a reason they were renowned to be some of the most powerful.

In this case, Kiro’s entire attack (correct me if I’m wrong)is channeling into whatever vulnerable spot it can. Metal of most kinds is at least a slice more conductable than the body. And since they mass produce these headbands it isn’t rare, so it’s most likely to be conductable, at least a bit. In real life, metal attached to a body of nearly any kind leads to burning or even nerve damage to the area effected. Either way, it’s not a good thing to have the forehead protector on.
