1 Yet Another Spar [Invite Only; Blake Belladonna] Thu Jul 28, 2016 8:01 pm
Kashizudoto
S-rank
This was definitely not the first time that Kashizudoto had attached a sign to a stand in the marketplace, reading in bold letters: "Bored Genin Looking to Spar at the Rolling Hills. He'd done this scheme many times before, and he'd learned a lot from sparring other ninja, much more than he would cooped up inside Konoha finding a lost cat. He was bored, after all, and until he could become a chuunin, Kashizudoto really wanted to test his mettle against stronger shinobi in order to improve his own skills. Losing would be a good thing; it would mean that he'd learn a lot from the spar. Winning was also very fun, of course.
As usual, Kashizudoto sported a green jacket which showed a little bit of his white undershirt. He wore his Konoha hitae-ate on his forehead as a sign of village pride and a fight on equal terms between whoever showed up, not to mention the protection it gave his head. On the left side of his average shinobi pants was a pouch holding a kunai and three shuriken that he brought with him for the spar. Even though he had a lot of skill in Kenjutsu, he did not buy a katana yet. This wasn't because he was lazy, rather he was smart with his ryo. He knew that he didn't have much practical use for a katana as a genin, only being assigned to lackluster D-rank and C-rank missions, so he would improve his skill in Kenjutsu to the point where he could buy and wield a B-rank katana as a chuunin, where he would go on high-risk missions which needed his all. Either way, the Sarutobis were masters of the Katon element; he always had his ninjutsu in store, katana or not. Regardless, he could not exploit his Kekkei Genkai, the Will of Fire Paladin, and Kekkei Genkai Jutsu, the Sword of the Will, without his Kenjutsu; however, he could salvage at least a bit of his Kekkei Genkai through hand-to-hand combat, although he was certainly no Taijutsu specialist - at least his strikes would be guided by the Will of Fire.
Because of the disadvantages, Kashizudoto knew that there was a high chance of losing. After all, the harder the challenge, the more he could learn. So he was excited for this match, patiently waiting for whoever his opponent was.
