[indent]Nazo, the Enigma of the Yagami Clan, and Seisui, the Tranquil Lotus of the Mayonaka Clan — they both take a stance; they both ready for the start of the conclusion of the fight they have entered. Nazo is in the classic Iaido Stance. This is a stance that is both traditional as it is deadly. It is among one of the most revered and common stances a samurai can take. In the hands of a novice, it’s nothing, but with a master, it’s better than having unlimited chakra and techniques. For Nazo, it is the stance he uses when he is ready to end fights. It’s been so long since he has used it so many times in one battle. For Seisui, Nazo had noticed a shift in his stance. From what he could gather, the Mayonaka uttered the words Core Lotus. Nazo could decipher that this stance must be the grand-daddy of his style. Which means that Seisui is taking heed to what Nazo said about the kiddie gloves coming off. Nazo smiles at this realization. 

With his Iaido stance in full effect, Nazo stands ready for what Seisui had to offer and boy did he offer something good. From in front of him, Nazo saw Seisui dashing towards him. In the seconds that followed, Nazo was already planning a counterattack. It would first be defensive, but eventually the force poured into this attack would be offensive, should it be successful, that is. This attack that Nazo used was one of his favorite defensive techs.

The seconds that elapsed from the Mayonaka’s initial dash to the point of contact between his and Nazo’s blade allowed the Yagami to flow his chakra into his blade and as he rushed it out of his scabbard, he slashed in all directions. This included horizontal, vertical, diagonal , and any other kind of direction. The result was multiple chakra sicles being thrown at Seisui’s blade. Eventually, the process would back off Seisui, but who know what Seisui would do in respond to this.[/indent]
