After the battle had started, Katsu found himself in a corner with three enemy shinobi in front of him. His sharingan active, he looked at the three who were avoiding direct eye contact. All three of these enemies were somewhat formidable. He knew it would be quite troublesome to take all three of them altogether and he couldn't afford any major injuries. He raised the sword, alerting the shinobi. They all made hand seals. One of them shot a stream of water towards Katsu's feet, making him leap into the air. The second one shot a flurry of wind towards the boy, knocking him back. The third shot an tigre-shaped lightning attack at the boy which had seemingly contacted with the boy but it was hard to be certain with the rising smoke. A fuma shuriken cut through the dust with ease, surrounded by a larger blue chakra, shaped like the shuriken itself but on a larger scale. It spun violently and flew towards the shinobi at a great speed. They all leapt out of its way and looked over to where the attack had come from, seeing no one in that direction. As the shinobi looked around, trying to find the boy, they kept their blades up. A shuriken surrounded by a well shaped thin layer of wind smoothely cut through the tree he was on when he had disappeared, flying towards the lightning user. The man tried to block the shuriken at the last minute but the shuriken cut through the steel of the kunai, proceeding to decapitate the man. Katsu flew out from behind the tree, two more shuriken like that spinning on his fingers. He swung his hands, sending the shuriken flying at the two enemies. The fire used a fire attack, at least an A-Rank, sending several large fireballs in mere seconds, each stronger than the other. The shuriken flew back at him, now covered in fire. Katsu made five quick hand seals ([b]Fire Release: Hellfire[/b]) and pillars of flame flew up from the ground, making the fireballs explode and launching the shuriken high. He landed on a small pond inside forest they were fighting in, the giant trees bent over it. He skidded backwards and took heavy breaths, holding his sword backwards, his arms resting on his knees. The water user ran over and made four seals. In the mean time, Katsu ran over at the man. Just as he was ready to slash the man's neck, water rose around him, blocking his way out. These were definitely high caliber techniques, Katsu realized that. He was lucky with the first attack, being able to take the lightning user by surprise. The boy slashed at the wall around him, trying to cut through it, but its pressure was too high. The moment the blade contacted it, would be repelled. After a couple of seconds, he felt a jolt running through the water up to his feet. He let out a loud cry, alerting anyone nearby. The sword in his hands dropped into the water. The shock stopped and he used that moment to move his aching arms to create the seals for his "Thunder Charge" technique, something he took pride in. After it was done, he put his hands on the water and the next jolt of lightning was used by the enemy, running through his arms and strengthening his lightning chakra. He spotted the two chakras and raised his arms, making the Dragon, Monkey and Hare hand seals for [i]Inazuma[/i], extending his arm and shooting a strong current of lightning straight at them, shocking the water and recycling some of his energy and hitting the water user in the chest, stopping his heart with the shock. There was the fire user left and Katsu was already quite tired. He hoped that someone had heard his cry and decided to help out.
