Zanpaktou Training.

The area was incredibly...sandy, typical for this village. Misuto was sat by a dead tree on the outer side of the Hidden Sand, Haineko planted beside him, the blade in the ground and the hilt resting against the tree.
Sighing, peeling an orange, Misuto sniffs at it and turns his head in disgust,
Is all the food in this village dry? he wonders silently, overheard by Haineko,
You could've thoguht of that before coming here..? she suggests cynically.
Throwing away te orange, Misuto stands, picking up Haineko by the hilt and holding it out infront of him, pointing it horizontally.
Ok then..How am I even meant to get you to materialize?
Why would you want me to materialize? I don't blame you, pretty and young as I am she replies,
I'm actually doing it so you'd stop complaining about not materializing. Misuto counters, closing his eyes to concentrate.

"Sorry to interrupt, but there's no way that piece of trash is gonna defeat someone capable of weilding one without a spirit to aid him." A heatwave slowly dissolves the distorted image of Sasuke bringing him into clear view. Sasuke unsheaths a Chokuto blade known to most as the Kusanagi. Then grabs the sheath and stands still calling Misuto out with his eyes.

Hm, the Kusanagi. Misuto comments, I've faced that blade before in the hands of the one known as Riku Uchiha... he sniffs,
Ooh, Riku? The one in possession of Tobiume-Chan? asks Haineko.
What do you mean 'without a spirit to aid me'? Haineko and I share the same Spirit. explains Misuto, sheathing Haineko again.
This should be interesting... he comments, beginning to pull off some handseals,
Fire Style; Rocket Jutsu. he states, spitting out a large fireball, aiming it at the ground behind Sasuke, knowing that, if it hit, the blast would knock him forwards.

(A Homing Jutsu?) Sasuke jogs towards Misuto expecting the attack to follow while taking a small kunai and aiming it at Misuto's forehead. He speeds up using a magnetic jutsu to keep it out in front of his body to try and fluke Misuto's perception of Sasuke keeping up with a Kunai's thrown speed. As Sasuke gets close to Misuto he cancel's the magnetic jutsu, forms a substitution and single clone jutsu while using Sharingan to percept where Misuto would move as he tosses the Kunai at Misuto. ( He'd later try to shove Misuto onto the ground and run fast )

The Animal Path sat in a branch of the dead tree, tilting It's head as it watches Sasuke's Magnetic jutsu, wodnering how he was doing it.
(not a homing jutsu, just explodes on impact like a rocket)
Misuto watches all of this, tilting his head as a large, black scaled snake slithers out of his sleeve, lashing out at Sasuke as Misuto simply sidesteps the kunai, narrowly missing it as it skims across his ANBU mask, knocking it off and revealing his Rinnegan eyes.
This guy is strong. comments Haineko unhelpfully.

Sasuke reverts back as Misuto's mask falls off. The kunai barely leaves 4m of distance past the moment of contact. A large cloud of dust and sand fills the black snake's mouth when the clone's devoured or gets into its eye's if binded. A large white snake lashes out of Sasuke's sleeve aimmed at Misuto's arm with the snake binded to it to try and yank both Misuto and the snake back towards Sasuke's back. A sharp thrust would delivered right in a non lethal appendage of Misuto's backside to pierce him and the snake (Basically you'd be pulled back by the snake into the tip of a Chidori Charged Sword that'll paralyse your body and the snake's). As Misuto's own bioelectrical energy would surge through the blade to start a Chidori Current Circut to temporarily neutralize him and the snake. Sasuke would use this time to finish off the snake by severing its head and attack the hidden paths.

The Anime Path sees Sasuke's ploy in time to save Misuto, who jumps forwards slightly, spinning in midair and delivering a kick to the snake's face before landing facing Sasuke, three kunai in his hand which he launches at his opponent, the snake departing from Misuto's sleeve to launch itself at Sasuke also.
During this time, Misuto jumps back to put some space between himself and his opponent, throwing ten more kunai as he does so.

"Not so fast..." Sasuke's snake hurls the black snake towards the kunai and animal path horizontally as it launches itself at Misuto; Sasuke disconnects from it. Tossing a Chidori Senbon at the path and Misuto's kunai, hand. They lightning would split the kunai in two and paralyse Misuto again. The snake would entrap Misuto in its Jaws as Sasuke would hack the black snake in half and eliminate the white one to strike Misuto. "Enough with the tricks"

Growling, Misuto jumps backwards again, the Animal Path dodging the attack also easily.
They're not tricks. he mutters, unsheathing Haineko, Growl. he shouts as the blade turns to ash which sprreads then flies at Sasuke.

Sasuke launches a large blast of 'Black Flames' at the ash to turn it into glass. Taking the Chokuta he slashes at the glass sword a numerous amount of time... "Cute toy you have there 'Haineko', I also picked up a Zanpakuto of Black Wind. I won't use it on you here or now." Are we done here? *smirks at the broken Shards*

Misuto's eyes widen as Sasuke starts slashing as the glass,
You sadistic bastard... he mutters, almost feeling the strikes due to him sharing a spirit with Haineko.
Wow, he's not even gonna use his Zanpaktou? He must really rely on his own powers too much... comments Haineko.
I don't think you realise that i'm not limited to that ash. grins Misuto, more ash exiting the hilt of his sword, again flying at Sasuke.
Too bad you havn't achieved Bankai yet. smirks Haineko, flicknig some hair out of her face telepathically.
You're not helping replies Misuto annoyedly,
I suppose it can't be helped... he adds, his right hand becoming distorted, turning red and extending, becomnig a blade made completely of blood, spinning fast, sharpening, becoming about as powerful as a Raikiri. Misuto begins to run at Sasuke, ash trailing behind him, the ash launching itself at Sasuke from all directions as Misuto stabs at him with the blood blade.

Well this doesn't look good, then again blood is technically -Sasuke crouches and thrust out his palms exerting a dome of lightning based chakra- Chidori "Stream" Nagashi!...Sasuke uses the lightning's speed and force to repel the dust and conduct the blood by infusing it with lightning to numb Misuto's body as it goes back to its source. Once this happens Sasuke reabsorbs the lightning into his right hand and forms a large ball. Ominous Chidori! -Blackish grey ball of chakra- is carried by Sasuke with intense speed aimmed at Misuto.

Shit. mumbles Misuto as he sees Sasuke running at him, willing his legs to work, groaning a little before grinning, two long blades coming from either side of him, aimed at Sasuke, it was the Animal Path summoning these blades, each of them coming from It's palm.
Jumping back over the Animal Path's head, Misut kneels down, recovering his energy as his Path makes handseals, appearing atop a giant red hound with two heads, each of which was bearing te Rinnegan eyes.
Should be interesting. think Misuto.

A man with long orange hair,in a pony-tail,suddenly appears between the two "gun-ho" ninjas as they battle not trying to interfere. He is wearing some upbeat clothes with headphones on which are connected to a device on his arm and he has a long black katana on his hip. Seemingly un-aware of the heated battle the man continues to walk at a normal pace still in the middle of the two for the moment. "She can walk dat walk....walk dat walk..." he sings with his eyes closed and slightly dancing.

(i'm just gonna post as if the other guy wasn't here lol)

Misuto raises an eyebrow as Dan walks by, wondering why he was singing.
Um..hello? he asks, tilting his head.

Dan can't hear Misuto due to the ear-bud type headphones in his ears. Dan continues to walk with eyes closed and dances more.
