Today was just another day outside of the village with an objective, Etsuo believed. But there was more to that as his paranoia was kicking in with all of his troubles being outside of the village. It seemed to escape him a few times here and there for the most part, but he knew that many enemies lurked just around the corner. The reason that Etsuo was her because he was going help a fellow shinobi of the village train, and decided this was a much better place, than somewhere like the thunder grounds where they wouldn't be disturbed. Last time, he was on the thunder grounds, he almost died without even trying as lghtning didn't care, it would strike even where a rod wasn't present. So he did not mind coming to this place, since he actually had a chance for survival in this case.

He eventually arrived in the area and prepped himself with another scan of the area around him, but he took note of nothing outside of the usual. If wasn't already attacking him, he supposed that it was all just in his own head. He turned his head and attention towards the village as he awaited the person that he planned on helping to train. With helping this person, he would only be bettering rhe entirity of the village and making it a safer place for his father's return. After all, it was his father that he felt was like the last piece of his true family, with his mother and brother dead, he was uncertain if the rest of the Yukimura clan hated him.

He just had to carry on at the moment, hoping for the best of things to happen for him.

(Note; Hanbei has an ability which means you cannot discern his sex as male unless you have S rank med ninjutsu, so, for purposes of this thread, he looks like a 12 year old girl.)

Theme:

"Hello~

My name is Hanbei Guanyin and I'm looking for a training partner for a one on one spar in the afternoon somewhere around the rice area, it's pretty there at sunset, so i think it would be a great place for a fight!

I'd like it not to be someone too strong like binsu, so it could be more of a fair fight rather than just having a big bear summoned against me.

Sincerely,

Hanbei ~<3"

P.S. this girl can be a handful, watch out.

Hanbei was sitting in the arena waiting for his opponent, he looked up from under his hat and smiled, his specially made silk clothing draped over his arms as he jumped down from a small tree which was growing not too far up from where they had decided to meet. Hanbei had put up a training request and he assumed that this was the person who would be answering it, looking down he waved, his soft, yet to break effeminate voice calling out as he waved toward the other person.

"Hey, over here."

He said with an amount of glee as, with his baggy pure silk robed flailing behind him, masking any of the features which disguised him combined with his growth disease, he looked almost exactly like a young girl. Running down the blue and green terraces to meet up with his sparring partner and teacher for the afternoon, there was only one added note that was on his training request. A warning that Hanbei could be somewhat of a handful, with his needles of Guanyin technique he was able to strike a jounin rank ninja in the leg, dealing what seemed to be a considerable wound.

But this person looked much more friendly than Binsu, and with Kanbei nearby, Hanbei knew that if either of them got hurt in this fight they would both be able to get healed up to prime condition, so there was not much to worry about. Hanbei slotted his needles into his fingers in such a way underneath his coat that his opponent would never know beneath the baggy silk down at his sides. Each of the black needles whom were hand made and crafted by their own clan to be deadly and super aerodynamic were lethal in their hands.

It's a Pleasure to meet you Sir, i'm Hanbei, shall we begin?

He asked with a kind and polite tone, tilting his head to the side coyly as the battle would be about to start.

Eventually, someone arrived to meet him, that was already present within a tree. Etsuo supposed this was the one that he was suppose to help train from the note that he was responding to. If not, then trouble was to be insured, but he didn't feel as paranoid as the girl approached. This was a person that needed trained, not someone that wanted to harm him, yet. If intentions were true then, why go though this entire trouble, although he did remember that it said she was a handful, and be cautious pretty much. As the person had said hey, he responded with a small wave, he wasn't much of a talker and didn't really plan on making much of an exception today.

Eventually they were about to begin as soon as Hanbei arrived within their chosen area. With a introduction, she asked for them to begin and Etsuo would compile with this but he wanted to make a small introduction of his own. "Nice to meet you too, I'm Etsuo, and we can begin now." He stated and then his eyes activated. The sharigan made his eyes change from black to the signature red that everyone knew of practically, it was the usual sign to tell if someone was a Uchiha. Although, his name could fool you because of the fact that it wasn't Uchiha, but Yukimura.

With that they would begin and Etsuo backed up & keep his sharigan eyes on his opponent as he moved backwards, drawing out a kunai and tossing a single one out at Hanbei. He wondered, what kind of shinobi, she was, and typically you could tell by how they react to a single attack, even if they don't realize it, the way you move even if you don't counter or block, shows a tad bit. He couldn't tell everything about her, but he could at least determine if they were a close range or long range fighter for the most part, until he meets someone versatile, then this idea can fail very easily.

He was over thinking though, but the objective of this was to improve someone, and like his father has said, you need to either, teach someone a new thing, improve what they already know, or kill off a weakness or minimize it.

Hanbei watched as he lifted his arm in a graceful arc to hurl the kunai toward hanbei's torso, though his attack was merely a test Hanbei would not budge on it, using as minimal effort as possible and noting his now crimson red eyes. His reaction speed against watching Hanbei's movements would be null and void. The only skin on hanbei's body which was not covered in long flowing baggy and somewhat heavy layered silks was his neck and head, and to a lesser point his feet. Meaning 90% of his attacks the Uchiha would probably feel the wind on. The kunai soard through the air, but in an upward motion HAnbei flicked his wrist as a blur shot out at speed from his coat collecting the Kuunai in middair.

The Kunai meeting the two superior throwing points as it shot through the air would almost explode into shards as Hanbei's two weapons connected with the steel. The tips of the metal being more aerodynamic, made of a superior steel, spun proficiently and being thrown by a guanyin overpowered the E rank item and eliminating it from the ninja's inventory permanently, namely so that Hanbei knew he would not be able to substitute to it to gain distance on him. That was a trick Hanbei was good at using but then it came for the little ninja's offensive.

Spinning with the momentum of the initial strike Henbei span one hundred and eighty degrees moving like a fan dancer performing the dance of the Kagura, with all of the grace of a crane even for the boy's young years. His mid length hair swaying until, literally out of nowhere three more of Hanbei's darts shot out for his opponent's center chest and each of his shoulders with speed comparable to that of a chuunin throwing weapon and beyond that of a Genin. the aim of Hanbei's spread was to prevent his opponent from jumping or dodging the attack by moving to a side, the needles moving fast enough that if he were to move to a side, one of the ones aimed for his shoulder would still score him.

And finally at the end of his spin Hanbei used his first jutsu of the match, chanelling his chakra into the remaining dart of his first hand, he created a micro vaccum, before hurling the needle down its path at double speeds straight for the man's lower gut, he was trying to lure him into a specific dodge, least he retain minor damage early in a fight to trap him, and inflict major damage hopefully before he could react fast enough. Hanbei's own ace eye working in his favour as he would carefully monitor his movements, ready to warp the path of the micro vaccum at his earliest conveniance. Waiting till after the attack to curve it back and penetrate through his opponents achilles.

Chakra 140:

Things seemed to be moving so quickly, even though Etsuo was only against a genin with his sharigan active. But her reactions were quite unique than what he expected as needles shattered his kunai with a relative ease. With his guesses, he really wished that he had his puppets on him as he came to realize this would very much be a long range fight, at least it wasn't really going to be close combat with these needles that Hanbei threw out in a sort of dance. Multiplies of them came at him as he needed to react quick and he had only one option as hand signs were made. The jutsu, that Hanbei intended to use was successful, but even that one would reach in time to damage him, as chakra flowed into his hand. A shockwave of lighting was sent out and repulsed all of the needles with a five meter range, with the power of the shockwave being higher, not even the vacuum influenced on could reach forward to touch him.

Even with Most of Hanbei's skin covered, Etsuo still reacted much faster than without his sharigan active. Although he could not predict the movements of the person before him, this didn't matter though as he continued forward, forming more hand signs as he rushed forward, he inhaled deeply, filling his lungs with chakra, and exhaled deeply. Within his exhale, chakra spewed forward in a gaseous substance that could only been seen by a doujutsu eye, but there was an odor to it. For the next ten meters in front of him, the gas spread to, and he finished it off by tossing another kunai at the genin. This time, he was certain that things had to be handled differently because if a spark occurred with the gas, a fireball would be released able to cause first to second degree burns. With his ability to actually see the gas, Etsuo was able to move outside of it's range as he awaited the next move out of the genin.

He came to the conclusion in the end, that this girl was indeed , a handful.

Chakra: 155/200

Spoiler:

Hanbei would admit that he was surprised with his opponent being able to block his needle attack, though he would not be so lucky next time, Hanbei took to the heel moving to one side, as his opponent filled his lungs, strafeing him prepared for what would be his next jutsu, he was an uchiha, so hanbei expected pheonix fire jutsu to be what was breathed out of his lungs, but what it seemed to be was nothing of the contrary, wind, which Hanbei could not see anything off with or comprehend, though, with the Uchiha nature of fire, and the inability to train water, what wind jutsu could he have possibly used. It mattered not, the current of the wind he had blown in hanbeis direction by the time the gas had rolled out to its maximum length hanbei was already meters from it once the wind of the area began to disapperate, his opponent threw another Kunai, and hanbei retorted with the same responce as before.

Flipping two needles from his arsenal the two B rank attacks penetrated the blade at two different points causing fractures, like putting a hole punch through paper, in the end the superior metal was the one which came out on top, and that was his own B ranked attacks. Leaving the thrown Kunai as nothing but shards and his own jutsu as the ones which were the victor, but hanbei was not without craft, the eyesight of his opponent was something that he could account for, and with the mind of a little monkey forming its own base strategems' Hanbei performed an hand symbol within the confines of his own baggy clothing which would hide the action from his opponent's physical sight.

He'd run ninety degrees around his opponent before he had thrown the kunai, and though he had continued to run Hanbei doubte that he would have taken his eyes off his momenents, with a single handsign hanbei would keep moving for but a moment, as the substitution jutsu would not be hit in the time period, it remained for but a second, the chakra within it would no doubt for a second fool the budding sharingan. Hanbei while his needles were still in fight appeared almost fifteen feet in the air about fifteen meters from his opponent. Flowing his chakra into the threads of his silk clothing the fine sharp silk of his specially made clothes unravelled allowing him to make many times more needles than usual chakra senbon techniques.

Three dozen needles exploded from hanbei in a shotgun pattern firing down for his opponent at rapid speeds and a wide angle, playing to the advantage of Senbon skills. The late Toad sage three hundred years ago had described them as the the fastest jutsu with the widest angle, making them exceedingly difficult to avoid. And with a jutsu like this Hanbei did not aim all of them for his target, with this many needles he could afford to fire them all in a two meter radius around his position, once again making like exceedingly difficult. The substitution image would disappear as Hanbei and created the needles and they began flying through the air behind him, and hopefully out of his perepheral vision, meaning he would not attain the bonuses from his sharingan.

though this technique came at a strategical loss, it meant hanbei had already used his substitution skill for an offensive assault, which meant he would not be able to use it later for a defensive one. After the jutsu hanbei would fall, landing on the ground after a long ish fall, grunting slightly as he hit the ground falling to one knee.
