Blade leaped up and over Xero's head, releasing all three shuriken as the hilts to his longswords appear over his shoulders. Drawing them, the blades are a deep gold, almost bronze in color. Moving forward and closing the distance with the opposing navi quickly, Jake inserts a chip. "Aqua Needle, activate!" As the chip activates, a small rainstorm of needles falls towards Xero, just a short ways behind a left handed overhand swing towards Xero's head from Blade's left hand. When that missed, he spun and slashed at Xero's gut. Blade was excited so far. Xero's reflexes were amazing, on par with that of his own, but he was still somewhat vulnerable in comparison to Blade. With no decent ranged attack, he'd be hard pressed to keep from getting kited if that was the route Blade choose to take.

"Nice reflexes." Xero commented as he spun his scythe deflecting the shuriken. And with this the clash with Blade truly began. Just as easily as he deflected the shuriken he leaped out of the way of the needles. "You're good." He added dodging the overhand swing. It wasn't often someone made him put this much effort in so soon. "But you're underestimating me a bit aren't you?" He smirked blocking the slash to his gut. He released one hand from his scythe and held it up aimed directly at Blade.

"Spreader! Battle chip in!" Hiro called out swiftly activating another chip. 

Xero's hand quickly transformed and the blaster glowed. "Ya might wanna move now." He said before firing the blast that would spread out in Blade's direction. "And this isn't even the half of it." He added as he immediately followed after Blade at high speed. Whehter Blade was hit or dodged he wouldn't be getting away so easily.
