Kenji had a slight grin on his face as he seemingly flew towards the seemingly defenseless clone; with no whip he had no chance against Kenji. As the raiton flowed strong through his Hane, and he approached even closer to the clone a burst of electicity was released so bright so forceful it stopped Kenji in his tracks. The fleeting dome of electricity blinded Kenji but did no damage, his raiton blade seemingly absorbed some of the raiton infused chakra from the clone's attack; with that his Chikara clash was deactivated,
"Damn it, another failed attack and now I'm blind. Against someone like Yoshiro, I don't have a choice, if I'm to survive in this blind state i'll have to use it."
Kenji knew Yoshiro was going to try and capitilize, it was final. Kenji's skin began to turn a pale blue, and his hair grew in length and darker in tint. And finally, his nails and canine teeth grew in length along with white cirles with a single black dot in the middle of each circle appearing on his face. While in sage mode, Kenji didn't need his eyes to see what was going on around him. He could sense every life form near him, it appeared that the clone had collapsed due to exhaustion, and the real Yoshiro was now charging him. Based on the distance Yoshiro was away from him, and the fact he felt no offensive action quite yet,
"He must've cancelled his summon and the whip, at this range he would've attacked by now otherwise, he isn't going to try his hand at Taijutsu is he... the scattered kunai. Alright Yoshiro, let's see how much you have left in the tank, if your clone is exhausted you can't be too far behind." Kenji's turned slightly so that his back was facing Yoshiro, giving him the impression that he couldn't see and he allowed Yoshiro to get in striking range, and in that moment he flexed his speed (SS rank) with his Hane still in hand. Kenji was sure that his movements wouldn't even be traceable due to Yoshiro's exhaustion and his uncanny speed. As Yoshiro closed the distance, Kenji without turning around to face Yoshiro leaped up and behind Yoshiro, he landed about 3 meters behind Yoshiro.
"At this distance my speed (SS rank) is more than enough to reach Yoshiro before he has time to react, especially since he's exhausted." In one lunge Kenji was in range behind Yoshiro with his Hane still in his right hand. Kenji pressed the the sharp tip of the Hane into the back of Yoshiro's chest with just enough pressure to let Yoshiro know the fight was over.
"Yoshiro, it seems you have overdid it. If your clone is that exhausted I know you are too, since you two were using the same amount of jutsu. You've improved a lot Yoshiro, learning the Kage Bunshin..." Kenji removed his Hane from its position against Yoshiro's back and sheathed it,
"and that raiton whip jutsu of yours are two invaluable maneuvers. It was fun sparring with you as always, and I needed the practice, so I thank you." Kenji remarked while still in sage mode.
Despite Kenji's tone he wasn't sure if Yoshiro would accept defeat so easily, so even after he removed his katana from his back he began molding a great deal of chakra, just in case Yoshiro didn't agree with the fight being over. Kenji stepped back, ready to settle it once in for all if Yoshiro was too stubborn to accept the outcome.
