Chiyoko ensured at least one would be fatal, once he had managed to muster this much of a defense. As he began to pull out blades from his body, she quickly twisted the remaining there were inside of him with a flick of her finger. It'd cause an exceptional amount of pain, as well as hinder any chance he may have to make an assault back on her. She made sure to target the ones in his legs to make any defense weaker. She hated causing pain like this, but she had a sense about Akine that made her believe that if she did not take this person seriously, she would risk not only the lives of herself, Hitsujik, and Tokiko, but others as well. It was time for Akine to be judged eternally. She also wouldn't make it easy for him to just throw the blades out. Each of the tanto were bound with her strings. Without the strings being cut, she could quickly fling the blades back up at him as he threw them away, making Akine's life even more difficult. Still, Chiyokos other blades and rings that had missed their mark were free to circle back, two of the rings moving to make a complete circle - cylinders at this point - around Akine while the remaining would target from multiple directions along with the tanto she had missed with. She suspected that even with his spirits he would have a difficult time continuing to defend against her omnidirectional assault. As a further precaution, Chiyoko began to preform a series of handsigns as she maintained her distance between herself and Akine. Hitsujiki remained next to her, having gathered a significant sum of energy at this point. Tokiko remained safe on the sheeps back.
