[quote=Nicias Askani] once gio was trapped in the blue orb he let out a sigh, trying to catch his breath. "i didn't try to stop you because i wanted to test you as well. to see what my captain was capable of" there was that and the fact that bringing a sword to a gun fight wasnt the best idea in Gio's head. the level of control Mok had was astounding and he had gotten to see some of it for himself. Buuuut now he was looking at a Gattling Gun. Gio held his sword up with the flat side facing Mok. "hado58. Tenran, Hado 68, Raikoho" with both Kido being a part of his elemental affinities they were a bit stronger than normal with his shikai activated. Additionally because of his shikai's ability that gives him a masterful control over his own energy the two kido were fired perfectly in tandum creating a devastating Lighting twister that he hoped would overwhelm the hail of bullets while flying quicking toward the captain. [/quote] Mok's eye twitched a bit as he rested the Gatling gun on his shoulder. This kid was pushing his luck, at least he was now attempting to fight back, but even though his little combination managed to push the bullets back in his direction, Mok only smirked and shook his head. He switched his gun to his left hand and held out his right arm, with his open palm facing the oncoming projectiles and hado. They seem to just halt right where they were. "Better, you are finally manning up. However, if you are going to engage someone with kido, know their strengths and flaws. I can understand you not knowing my flaws, but attempting a hado on me is futile." Mok said as he cupped his right hand and the projectiles speed up once again at him, yet what really was the case, would be an illusion. When he raised his hand he didn't merely stop it, he pushed it back, including the hado. He only made it so Gio's mind would think the bullets were coming at Mok, when really they were coming in fast towards Gio. Now while Mok could have dodge the bullets to make the illusion more believable. He stood in place as the fake bullets and hado just passed through Mok's body.
