Well, that and a lot of vapor, as it seemed Sano had resorted to utilizing a colossal mass of water and sharks to sponge the blast, and conceal himself in the process. To the nature 'sensor', the shark had seemingly melted into the body of water, only to have the sword still manifest a single point of gargantuan chakra. Rumia's blast was certainly strong enough to purge the counter, and prevent it from being an issue, though it seemed Sano was completely unharmed as he manifested himself once more. A dull stare ruled in her eyes, one deformed and discolored, the other still normal, as the swordsman would now employ what seemed to be a flex of his malicious intent. The ginger squinted, seemingly untouched by the killing intent. Weaker or not, Rumia was a beast that frequently underwent moments of bloodlust and uncontrolled rage. An intent to kill was all too natural of a feeling to her. That and killing intent doesn't immobilize for more than half a second, if it'd work on this mad thing. But Sano couldn't know that, and as such, she would capitalize. She had since landed, once the shark had manifested his vile intent. The fastest non-superhuman person can close one hundred meters under nine seconds. Here, we have around fifty once she'd land. Shinobi are also known to work in the supersonics, and frequently employed high speeds to travel through countries. Now, we enter Rumia, a person whom the physical might was not only abnormal, but had jets to propel her even faster. To say that she could effortlessly close distances when scales were this small would be quite accurate. Once Sano would devote his focus to the Konoha interloper coming from the air, she would capitalize. The sword was raised, cancelling incoming attacks and filling itself with more chakra as she'd notice. Rumia's simple mind associated very little things here, and only assumed he was blocking her peer's attack efficiently enough to remove risks if she were to approach. Sakana was a good distraction, so she'd capitalize. When the shark would go for a counter to the water ability, the Shinrikyo would already be right before his massive body, body half-crouched and left forearm set before her chest, horizontally, and mutated into an axe. With one swift and brutal swipe, she'd perform a clean cut from right to left onto Sano's lower abdomen as he'd focus himself on Sakana, and perhaps even devote himself to casting hand seals for a new jutsu. "[color=f26522]Time fer teriyaki.[/color]" Her assault would be relentless once up close, as she'd take every attempt to prevent more than one hand seal to be cast, at the risk of Sano losing a hand. He would also come to notice the shadow of something long cast upon him. A jagged tail, stretched upwards and consistently swaying left and right, passively but also quite menacingly as if it were calculating his movement as a snake would. Rumia's tail was something he was to consider, beyond her attempt to slice and dice the man she'd keep at minimum two meters from her.
