[OOC: So as a reminder then, your character just suffered D rank physical damage from the punch, as well as C rank damage to his brain from the active jutsu that was also put into your head.]
The enemy had taken the hit, and obviously he'd be reeling. His brain had been rattled, not only from the physical punch but the effects of Jukei's Beyond the Surface technique. The enemy would be dazzled, his vision blurry and ears ringing, though he'd never even know while in the fog. His brain was likely bleeding at this point, a sure sign that there would be issues to come. Those proctoring the exam had surely seen through the fog to understand it had begun to happen, but they had not acted to end it. And why would they? The fight was a good one, and who knew whether or not the Iwa ninja or the Kiri ninja would be able to secure this victory? After all, the enemy was likely feeling a deep sense of confusion. He had only just seen Jukei flying backwards- How had he practically appeared next to Kaito? It was a mystery in itself.
Kaito had begun to fall back, and as that happened Jukei withdrew his fist. His sensory jutsu allowed him to understand that the enemy had stopped falling, but even the Iwa genin couldn't have expected the sudden and reckless move that came next. Kaito began charging forward at Jukei, skating across the ground and gaining speed to close the half meter gap incredibly quick. He had, by no means, accelerated to maximum speed. He had, however, more strength than Jukei. Even while Jukei knew what was going on, he felt the enemies arms wrap around his body, around his ribs, and he felt his weight be lifted off the ground. He reacted instinctively, having wrestled plenty in the past.
His legs wrapped around the opponents waist, locking themselves at the ankle, as his left hand instantly went to the opponents shoulder, half of his hand on the opponents neck, to allow himself to control his own upper body. It was due to his, along with his sensory jutsu, that he felt the user bring his head back away from Jukei's side from the picture-perfect tackle, and aim his head upwards at Jukei's face. Jukei instantly turned his face away from the enemy and pulled his neck and upper body back, which held his head behind his back. He knew from experience that Kaito had a dangerous mouth, and while his sensory jutsu screamed that Kaito had begun moving his head, and while Jukei felt Kaito's head pull away from his side, and while his hand felt the bend and twisting of Kaito's neck as his head reached upwards, Jukei could guess what was coming next.
It was not simply the sensory jutsu, nor his physical contact being well placed, that gave him that knowledge. Without any vision or hearing, it took both the sensory technqiue and the feeling of the enemies neck movement to piece together the puzzle in Jukei's head. Both of those puzzle pieces were enough to tip the Iwa ninja off to what was happening.
And sure enough, it did. Two water blasts shot themselves from Kaito's lips. One of them ripped upwards, catching the very edge of Jukei's collar. It tore lightly into the flesh, though only a mild flesh wound, while the other shot into the air, missing everything. If Jukei had not known to readjust his face so that would have potentially caused intense damage- Not enough to end this fight, but enough to make him feel uglier for sure.
And yet Jukei could tell two things. The first one only he knew- They were nearing the edge of his fog. There would soon be no benefit left afforded to him. The second, the one that Kaito was also aware of, was that they were getting ready to fall. Kaito was moving at a solid speed, and they were now already heading towards the earth together. But Jukei had already started acting, and Kaito wouldn't see until it was too late.
Kaito was still blind and deaf within the fog on their way down. He would feel Jukei's legs tighten around his waist, enough to restrict breathing slightly and make him uncomfortable. He would feel Jukei's left hand tighten its grip around his neck and shoulder, though not enough to cause major discomfort. And both of these reactions made sense. Jukei would obviously know they were falling, and he would brace himself as such.
The difference was that Jukei knew exactly where Kaito's face was, as well as what his own body was doing. As they fell, Jukei was moving to slam his elbow into Kaito's face. There would be a moment as they fell from the fog, less than a half a second- Depending on how fast they were falling, less than a quarter of a second. Kaito's vision would be just adjusting to the sudden addition of light, assuming his eyes were open at all, and would be momentarily blinded for all intents and purposes. His ears, having been devoid of sound, would hear the clank and clatter of weapons that had been kicked and sent flying by his charge forward (likely the cause of him tripping within the mist). And even if he had somehow regained vision and adjusted to the light in less than a quarter of a second, he'd see only one thing. And even with Jukei being temporarily blinded as well- His sensory jutsu, as well as having continuous understanding of precisely where Kaito's face was during the reckless charge, was more than enough for him to aim his elbow on their drop. As Jukei's back, further off Kaito's front, hit the ground, it would have the added benefit of his left arm keeping Kaito's neck relatively stationary, and for that split second where he had vision, he'd be falling at full speed towards this elbow that was also coming up towards him.
An elbow, coming upwards and angling itself from around the bottom of Kaito's nose, into the bridge of his nose between his eyes. Kaito would be falling, unable to use his hands as they were wrapped around Jukei, and given mere fractions of a second to respond to what he may have not even seen. The elbow, if it hit, would cause massive damage to Kaito's nose. It would perhaps break his opponents nose, and the use of Flowing Water would imbue another C rank of damage- This one directly damaging the optical nerves, as well as his brain. It was likely he was blinded at this point, and had suffered over B rank of internal damage directly to his head at this point. If this all hit and he was still coherent enough to move, he'd likely be unable to gather the strength to tear away from Jukei and move. Even if he went to unwrap his arms from Jukei's side and tried to pry Jukei's legs off, Jukei would use this opportunity to take free hooks at Kaito's face, maybe even more elbows. Kaito's hands would be too slow to let go and reach up to protect his face before catching a few free punches, and even if he turned his head, Jukei would merely stop his momentum and use his other fist.
This was not to say that Jukei was unscathed. The fall had made Jukei's back sore. If the fall had been a slam instead of Kaito losing balance and falling, it would have certainly done serious damage. That was not what happened though- And what happened benefit Jukei immensely.
TWC: 2681
- Chakra: 160/250:
Name: Chakra Realm
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Element: N/A
Range: 25 Meter Radius
Specialty: Chakra Flow
Duration: Sustained [15/5]
Cooldown: Sustain + 1 Post
Description: Jukei emits a web of chakra from around him, coming out in an uncountable number of tendrils that flow and stretch around him. These tendrils are directly linked to him, allowing for instant communication to his senses. This fiber like links of chakra allows him to understand an enemies movement, as he directly feels them happening. It is akin to a bug landing within the web of a spider, allowing the spider to know the exact size, location, and state of its prey. The only difference is the opponent will notice no inhibiting effect. This jutsu does not increase Jukei's reaction time, and while the information is relayed to him instantly, he still must react to it (ie; His reaction time).
Name: Beyond the Surface
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Element: Water
Range: Melee
Specialty: Taijutsu/Chakra Flow
Duration: Sustained [15|5]
Cooldown: Sustain + 1 Post
Description: Jukei concentrates chakra throughout his body, allowing this chakra to vibrate at a specific frequency and utilizing his affinity with water. Upon contact with an opponent, or a surface, the chakra he has focused within his body ripples out within whatever he came into contact with. This causes immediate internal damage via any sort of liquid present, which can severely harm internal organs and also amplifies the damage dealt to bones, possibly fracturing them, as the damage caused by this jutsu on contact is completely separate from the physical damage caused upon impact of the strike that potentially carries it. It can also disrupt muscle tendrils, causing numbness and muscle failure even if bones do not break. The damage is relatively contained, spreading only a few inches from whatever the point of contact on the opponent is. This jutsu can also be fine tuned immediately to avoid damage being done to an ally through some sort of accident. It should be emphasized that these attacks do not specifically target the muscles, tendons, nerves, or bones; Rather, the fact that these attacks ripple beyond the surface of contact means that they, of course, damage these internal structures. The ripples travel up to three inches deep at point of contact.

Description: Jukei concentrates his chakra through his muscle fibers, as well as his tendons and soft/hard tissue; Yes, even his bones and skin. The chakra acts as a way to secure these more vital parts of his body from taking any sort of damage from moving in ways that they're not necessarily suppose to move. While this jutsu is active, Jukei can instantly change the velocity, even reversing it completely, of his body at any point- This can be something as simple as redirecting a punch, or as extreme as allowing him to suddenly throw his body in a new direction whilst moving at his full speed, all whilst maintaining his balance.
Name: Unknown Territory

Range: 6m radius
Specialty: Ninjutsu|Chakra Flow
Duration: Sustained [15|10]
Cooldown: Sustain + 1 Post
Description: Jukei creates a dense fog in all directions, his body being the epicenter of its starting location, reaching 6 meters in all directions. This jutsu is made to block out an enemies senses. This blocks all natural vision and sound within the fog, including Jukei's, unless perception is higher rank than the jutsu. Due to the fog being infused with his own chakra those who use sensory jutsu within the fog or to look into the fog from outside are unable to find Jukei, unless the sensory jutsu is at least a rank above this fog. Those with a perception of a rank higher than the jutsu can still see and hear within the fog. Those C rank and below are completely at the will of the jutsu while within it.
