If he was honest, he would have to say that he was a little disappointed in himself. That was one of his strongest jutsu, yet she hadn't even had to use a jutsu of her own to dodge it or to deal with it. Rather, she had just had to move her body into a better position to dodge them. It was infuriating, she was so far above his own level, that had been obvious from the start but it didn't need to be rubbed in his face like it was a mistake of his. He wasn't fighting her for personal reasons, although his resentment of her judgement call did play a large part in his willingness to spar with her in the first place, but rather what he cared more about was the fighting itself.
He wanted to prove himself strong, to prove that he was the kind of person that she wanted running a dojo, and yet that hadn't even come close to happening. Now she probably thought that he was a brash fool that jumped the gun. The kind of fool that would get into trouble and bring the trouble to his students, although that was perhaps not such a bad thing. Perhaps it would encourage her not to want to put him on the battlefield like every other mindless drone that the village pumped out. Not that he really cared at this moment, as he noticed the jutsu coming towards him. This was the jutsu of someone far beyond his level, but there was something about this technique... if she had been trying her hardest to take him out, she'd have used a jutsu that he wouldn't have even been able to react to. These, on the other hand, were so slow he could actually trace their progress with his eyes.
Lightning suddenly crackled around him, splaying out around him as if a new storm was forming from just his body. It was a rather worrying sight, something that could cause lesser men to feel terrified. Bolts of lightning from the electrical storm shot out, cutting through the raiton energy blasts that she had launched from her Tonfas. They blasted apart in a surge of energy, and despite blocking the attack the storm was still there, crackling around him. With the frequent and seemingly random blasts of lightning around his body, his face was suddenly lit up in a way that it hadn't been before. Despite being in the middle of a sunny day mere seconds ago, his face somehow gained shadows that hadn't been there before. The crackling light around him lit up the face, giving it an almost beast like look. Whilst he might have been adaptable and intelligent, his face now looked... feral, almost dangerous. Despite this, he stood and listened to what she was saying, trying not to let his quickly forming bias to interfere with what she was saying.
”Hold it there, Karisuma-sama,” She was giving him an honorific? Why? He was below her status, and "sama" was only to people that the speaker respected. It was more than evident that she had no respect for him in the way that she had acted so far, but still...
”I don’t wish to spar with you. I wish to beg your forgiveness. I was mistaken when I spoke to you, I understand that now. When you had first said that you were taken away from active duty to train Academy students, I had thought that you had been placed as an Academy teacher. A private dojo was something I didn’t think of, and I also didn’t realize how passionate you were at your teaching there of Taijutsu.” Now, this just seemed stupid. So, it mattered different amounts if he was a private teacher than if he was an academy one? It only mattered to him because it stopped him having to deal with the minutia of his students' lives, and because she didn't have direct control over it, thus making her unable to place her whims upon it's staff.
There was a momentary pause where, for a second, he considered slamming some sense into her, but he knew getting close to her in a mood like this was just plain dangerous. He might do something that he would regret, and if she didn't want to spar then it would turn from training to flat out assault, something which was a crime against most people and flat out treason against the kage.
”If you truly are fine with your current position, then it is too imposing for me to make you switch. However, I will most likely send the Academy teachers to be trained in the dojo as well. I don’t like weaknesses or anything to be ‘pathetically poor’, as you say. I do feel that you could be more use on the field than as a teacher. Not to say you aren’t a good teacher, but I can just feel a great potential in you that I don’t think teaching at a dojo could help you solely attain it.” Whilst he was glad that she was redacting her decision to force him onto the front lines, there was something about the way she was saying it that seemed to belittle his dojo.
Moving forwards, he spoke as he ran across the area.
"If you believe so deeply that I'm able to fight on the front lines like a normal soldier, then why not try to force some of that potential out of me. Come on, Ma'am!" he said, as he concentrated chakra through his entire body. If a single attack like this was to land, and with his slamming foot into her right leg, she would find herself in a rather unpleasant position. She wanted to make claims about him when she hadn't even seen him properly in action, let's see how she would deal with him after a quick spar like this. She wanted to prove her point, then she would have to show some backbone. Anything less would be an insult to him and a disgrace to her position.
1000/1000 Lightning Release: Thundercrack Trained!
0103/1000 Brutal Impact training in progress.- Jutsu:
Name: Lightning Release: Thundercrack (雷遁・雷鳴 ~ Raiton: Raimei)
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: C
Type: Defense
Element: Raiton
Range: 20 meters
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 3 posts
Cooldown: 5 posts
Description: Kon creates a high amount of pure raiton energy, to the degree that the air around him seems to be in the middle of an electrical storm, bursts of lightning breaking off at regular intervals. This does not damage people, though it might scare Astraphobics, but what it does do is act as a magnificent shield. When someone or something launches an attack, a giant burst of lightning shoots off of his body and impacts the tech, either blowing it up in mid-air if a technique not connected to a person / weapon, or sending it backwards with a first degree burn mark on the area that was used for the attack. It can block 1 B rank, 2 C rank and 4 D ranks (+1 against water techs, -1 against wind)
Name: Brutal Impact (残酷打撃 ~ Zankoku dageki)

Range: 10 meters
Specialty: Taijutsu (Kickboxing)
Duration: 3 turns (-5 per turn for extension)
Cooldown: 4 posts + every turn extended
Description: Concentrating chakra into his muscles, Kon increases his strength five fold. Whilst this is active, he has +25% strength, and his passive attacks are able to fracture bones, even breaking if they are already damaged. Through this, he can block D rank taijutsu and bukijutsu if he’s fast enough to react to them.
