Verd was already past Haka in her scummy pirate disguise as she could hear Haka approach the patrols. Verd would gave a distinctively surprised facial expression upon seeing what Haka was doing back there. But having her own task she'd have to keep her curiosity in check. The spider going for seduction was something Verd had never, ever thought of was possible. Baffled by the concept, she bumped by accident into a large fat pirate. He gazed down and yelled out at her.
"Watch where you step you ugly rat!" he claimed and pushed Verd away. Dandi needed a second to remember whom she was disguised as. Obviously, the guard pirate she had taken form off was of lesser rank and didn't heed much respect among the men. Verd decided that she needed a better face to properly infiltrate the masses.
As she excused herself in order not to get into a fight with the fat pirate, she could see how the pirates all around the area would suddenly stand still and in awe as their leader, Arrchibald moved from his ship down the docks straight towards the bar. His weird ass parrot was sitting on his shoulder and constantly insulted the men. Claiming they were all ugly and weak little turds. The parrot commences to hack his beak into Arrchi's bald head. The scumbag pirate had yet to feed the poor little bird that was starving from being neglected like this.
Verd was now familiar with her new objective. To claim this person's face would be the ticket to deal with the crew. However, Verdandi needed to create an environment allowing her to take his place. She shuddered already as she could see Arrchibald sit down in the pub and glaring with lecherous eyes on the skin of the almost naked dancers that moved through the bar. She knew what would come next. Having just made mentally fun of Haka being the seducer, made things even more difficult for Verd as she hated it to accept that chickening out of this now would make Haka 'win' in regards of effort through seduction. Verd disliked it anyhow. As much as she enjoyed teasing Chi she wasn't the kind to user looks and sexual desires as weapons.
Accepting her fate Verd sighed and slowly moved behind the bar. With a little knock of her elbow to a few wooden planks she created herself a makeshift entrance into what must be clothing area for the dancers. Verd sneaked in and peeked upon the ladies getting all dressed up. Neither of them was particularly beautiful but they were slutty in a way that Dandi couldn't compete with. Removing her henge disguise Verd stepped from the barrels and moved in to quickly knock the two ladies out that were here. The one that just came back from the stage would give a surprised squeak but a soft hit to the guts and a palm to the neck would send her asleep as well.
Verd would slowly drag the three ladies past the make-shift plank door out of the pub and take them to safety. The things that will transpire in the bar will sooner or later turn bloody and as so often mentioned before, Dandi disliked it hen civilians got hit in the crossfire. Moving back in, Verd would fix the plank so that none of the passing-by pirates that might move in behind the bar to take a piss would get suspicious. The ladies had been dropped tied up and lips taped shut into one of the barracks behind the bar. Verd dropped the remains of her pirate clothes and slipped piece by piece into the most skin-covering dress she could find. It was still perking her bust out and the skirt didn't really cover much of her waist. Adding some stockings would eventually help cover some leg skin at least.
As the pirates were already growling in waiting for the next dancer. Verd slowly moved on into the bar. Her looks easily surpassed those of the pirate girl dancers. Making a lot of jaws drop as they hadn't seen that one coming. Arrchibald was obviously captured by the new face of beauty. Instantly feeling his heart beating faster. Even the little parrot would shut himself up for a minute without insulting anyone.
Verd would make use of the memories she had made at Siren's Den, trying her best to move and dance as pretty as one of Gin's stripper girls, particularity like the suna girl that had e beautiful and aesthetically pleasing dance that was more hypnotic than sexual. Mixing in some of her own blade-dance moves to complete the illusion, Verd would soon receive endless praises, whistles and loud gloats from the pirate crew. In an attempt to complete her objective. Verd would lean forth and slowly stroke into Arrchibald's goatee, tugging on his beard as the men started to cheer for their captain. Pulling him up to the stage and slowly towards the backroom.
While the crew cheered for their captain's luck, the drunk captain still had his bird on his shoulder. Once inside the wardrobe room, he would start to compliment Verd's beauty and turned around to remove his coat and place his bird off his shoulder in lust for what was coming next. Being vulnerable Verdandi would seize her chance to pull her sword from a hidden bundle of ropes in the room. The parrot would scream a few times.
"From behind! From behind!" which would probably be misunderstood by the crew outside in the bar. However, the captain would turn around, his reflexes quite well as his cutlass could block Verdandi's blade. He grinned at the futile attempt to assassinate him. However, he must have underestimated the girls strength as Verd's eyes would glow shortly and a large spike of ice would suddenly break through the wooden floor and impale itself into the captains belly. Followed by this Verd would pull a kunai from her stockings and shove it from below into Arrchibald's throat, impaling it into his jaw and hitting his skull with the pointy end. He died.
The parrot was staring at what had happened in disbelief and gawked in panic.
"Pain! Torture!" he would scream leaving the crew to wonder what was going on in this room. Verd quickly produced a little bit of croissant food from her pockets and offered it to the bird. Having seen him being starved Verd would take advantage of this and buy the parrots loyalty with food. The bird would see that he was not in danger despite the gruesome death of it's former Master. Munching quickly away at the bread offered and clucked a few times happy.
Verd would leave Arrchibald impaled. Take his cutlass sword and transform herself into the captain now. Staring into one of the mirrors made her clearly agree that this was one of the least enjoyable jobs in her career. First turning into a low ranked disgusting pleb, then into a seductive dancer and now into an ugly pirate captain. Verd sighed as the parrot sat casually on Verd's shoulder, she would feed him some more bread crumbs that'd instantly result in happy clucking again.
Verdandi would step out of the wardrobe room. The men instantly cheering at her… or him in that regard. Sure that their captain just had the time of his life. Verd would pull the cutlass from her belt and scream at the pirate crew.
"Listen you filthy maggots. We got everything we wanted from this wretched shore! It is time to move. Get your ugly asses onto the boats! Now!" he screamed while the parrot underlined every few words. Especially enjoying the part where he could call the crew a bunch of filthy maggots.
In hail the crewmen would empty their drinks and slowly move on towards their ships. Verdandi was slightly moving forth and staring at the globed sun that would shine past the heavy weather. A few times. The time was up. The hour was passed soon. About five or six drunk pirates were still at the bar. The crewmen boarded their ships just in time to be there when Chigetsu's move came into action. The ships exploded. Verd's eyes would widen. She expected them to sink but actual explosions weren't part of her expectations. Many of the crewmen that just freshly boarded and went in for the cargo parts would die within the initial explosions. Some would drown or be hit by the debris of wood that would be torn around. The upper parts of the ships would remain intact and many crewmen seemed to have survived there.
As Chigetsu's palms started to roam from his body in tentacle form, the men screamed for
"The Kraken! The Kraken!" as his arms started to violently pick and pull on the survivors. Verd would slowly move past the drunken pirates in the pub. Using the cutlass to slit their throats and eventually shoving her blade deep in the belly of the last one. The pub was dealt with. Haka had killed the patrols. The captain was impaled and bleeding to his death, unable to scream or move as a kunai was stuck in his throat. The ships were blowing up and Chigetsu's tentacles were wildly picking at the men on the docks.
About a dozen of the pirates would flee the docks back to the shore. But Verdandi was sure that Haka would find ways to enjoy herself here as well.

15 for forgetting them last time about the clones.
Around 10 for using it multiple times despite cheap upkeep.
Name: Transformation Technique (変化の術 ~ Henge no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon.
Rank: E.
Type: Supplementary.
Element: None.
Range: Self.
Specialty: Ninjutsu.
Duration: -5 every other post.
Cooldown: Duration +1 post.
Description: Given all the missions ninja are assigned to--battle, intelligence gathering, diversions--this is a priceless ninjutsu. It is typically used to change into people other than oneself, but one also has the ability to change into animals, plants, and even inanimate objects like weapons; however, the object can be no smaller than 1 foot long in at least one dimension. Despite this, this technique has an abundance of uses. The transformation of a master of this technique (which is generally an Academy graduation requirement) makes the user physically and visually the same as the transformed person or object in question, giving the user the exact mass and physical qualities of whatever they transformed into. This is one of the most basic ninjutsu, as such most shinobi know how to perform it. This technique does not give a ninja the abilities or jutsu of a person they transform into, nor can give the user the damaging ability of a weapon (however, this can be used as a bluff). Sensory techniques can easily pick out someone transformed using this jutsu: the user's chakra would be active, as well as the fact that their biological functions and scent are not masked by this jutsu. Costs 5 chakra on activation, and an additional 5 chakra every other post after that.
Name: Hyōton: Kōri no Yari ~ Ice Release: Ice Spears
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Element: Hyouton
Range: Close (0-5m), Far (5-10m)
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 1
Cooldown: 3
Description: By molding Hyouton chakra into a nearby water source, the user is able to freeze and mold the water into stalagmites of ice. They can be used various ways, whether it is to serve as a defensive barrier to keep opponents or their jutsu away, or a very quick attack, aiming to impale an unsuspecting target (1 inch). Advanced users of this tech can form the stalagmites from the water vapor in the air. The size of the stalagmite depends on the amount of water used to create it. These spears take one attack of equal rank to break, and two of a lower rank. While it's nothing severe, multiple wounds of this level would cause one to eventually bleed out. If a spear is broken, the jutsu goes to cooldown. In addition, when this jutsu comes into contact with water, it will begin to freeze the water. This effect is not instantaneous, but it will happen over a course of three posts. Up to 3 spears can be created at one time.
