Azuma watched as Tok charged towards him, it seems the man just didn’t learn despite all his talk of understanding. Readying himself as Tok approaches he is surprised when suddenly the imposing figure of the giant vanished. Azuma feels a fist slam into his ribs the blow was strong but not terrible spinning around he remains almost emotionless noticing the sudden serious demeanor Tok carried he spoke.
”I see you’ve finally decided to take this fight seriously, and don’t have to bad of a head on your shoulders that was quite the Shunpo.”
Azuma then flash stepped behind Azuma drawing his blade in an arcing and slashing motion across Tok’s back the blade sliding back into it’s sheath as quickly as he pulled it out. Azuma then slams his palm towards Tok pushing back mille-seconds before impact he calls out ”Shakkaho”. The blast of red energy swirling in front of his hand and firing at Tok less than a foot away, the blast propelling his already backward motion Azuma lands several yards away about a foot from the columns

Tok's stance was the only thing that saved his back from being torn up. Expecting the counter move to his back Tok quickly flipped his blade to block the sword. As he turned to make his strike he heard Azuma yell "Shakkaho" and the blast of energy caught him full in the chest. Tok was blown backwards the left side of his chest burned and smoldering. Tok however did not fall. The cave was brimming with noise and vibrations. Small pebbles fells and added to the noise. Tok ducked behind some columns shunpoing quickly to mask his presence. Moving quickly Tok jumped out from the pillar moving his blade quickly across Azuma's body, then bringing it diagonally downwards from right to left, and finishing the attack with a thrust to Azuma's gut. Determination showed on Tok's face. Sweat brimmed on his forehead, his muscles coiled and sinew showing on them. Tok's body was built for fighting his endurance excellent. Though he showed these signs his breathing was smooth and even. His chest still smoldered with the burn, and the pain cut through Tok's mind like a knife, but he ignored it. He had to do this, the point had to be made, for the sake of the plan.

Azuma was caught off guard when Tok used the distraction of his own attack counter attack. The blade slid across his side cutting a deep gash in his armor breaking through slightly to the skin. Swinging his arm to block the diagonal swipe it clangs against the bracer with a resounding ring, the following thrust falls just short of Azuma’s stomach as Azuma pushes pack and then shunpo’s landing several yards away. Running his hand across the slash in his armor he speaks perhaps a slight hint of excitement in his tone.
”That was well though out and executed, if I might suggest using a secondary distraction before the second attack something like bakudo twenty one: Sekienton”
Azuma then flashed to Tok’s right ducking low and slamming his palm up underneath Tok’s arm followed by a roundhouse kick to the stomach and a flat palm blow to the temple. Each attack flows seamlessly into the next and charged with a bit or reiatsu to increase it’s damage.

Tok just grunts at Azuma's advise, he had never been good at Kidou, and his abilities were severly limited in that area, however it did give him some ideas. Azuma moved gracefully his movements swift and fluid, this was not going to go well if he could continue to move like that. The attacks came quickly, the palm under his arm was numbing his body. The roundhouse kick was a brutal hit, but Tok managed to wrap his arm around Azuma's leg, grasping it tightly as the last blow hit his temple. Rocked but not out Tok held onto Azuma's leg with his sword hand. His sword was dropped laying on the ground. Regaining composure Tok stared into Azuma's eyes, his own going cold as he made a small statement. <<I dont do kidou well, so thats not a good distraction, but I think I can manage this>> Tok's hand had a red glow, pointing his palm into Azuma's gut he said the words <<Hado 31 Shakkaho>> Then a burst of energy erupted from his hand slamming into the armor of Azuma. The blast was not quite as strong as Tok would have liked, his kidou skill not being great, but the effect was nice as Azuma took the hit. Still holding onto his leg, Tok gave Azuma a few good punches to the quadraceps to deaden them then let Azuma go, backing up into a defensive stance.

The attack slammed into Azuma's gut the pain was intense but Azuma used the blow to fling himself back pulling his leg free from Tok, he smiled a bit despite the singed skin on his gut the damage hadn't been too severe. Cracking his neck he muses 'Hmm seems I underestimated him, guess it's time to get serious'. Dashing forward he then shunpoed to the right starting with a feint towards the sweep he adjusted his motion to an open palm uppercut towards the gut. Tensing his legs to drive forward and increase the damage of the hit. This was mostly of course to throw Tok’s footing off so he could slam his foot into Tok’s chest sending the man flying, and dash after the attack drawing his blade to slice at Tok using the momentum of the dash and the draw to put tremendous force behind the slice.
After finishing Azuma jumps back sheathing his blade while he speaks in polite but stern voice, which strangely reminded him of his father during training sessions. ”You’ll have to try much harder than that if you intend to defeat me. Come on, show me what your capable of.

Tok smiled as Azuma moved forward, more deliberately than before his speed increased. It was almost done this would not last much longer. <<You are too fast, ill have to try to even it out>> Moving his hands over his face Tok pulled his hands apart. As he did so his mask appeared. Square jawed and forming down the back of his skull the mask had two spiriling tusks, one under each eye. The mask had a black stripe over the right eye. This was it Tok felt his power surge his body. Taking the first hit was easy, his body surging with power. The kick to the chest was painful, and but his eyes are sharp and he dodges the slice. <<Cero>> the greenish beam fires from his hand and Tok rolls picking up his sword.

Azuma pushes off, the green beam flying beneath him blowing a hole through the pillars and leaving a smoldering crater in the wall. Watching his opponent carefully Azuma seems to disappear leaving an after image behind himself as he pops directly in front of Tok slamming his palms in rapid succession using a slowly increasing driving pace followed by a flurry of increasingly powerful palm strikes and spinning short kicks to drive Tok back towards the wall closing the space between them. As he approaches the wall he slams his knee up into Tok’s gut following through with a double palm strike at his chest squaring off his stance to increase the pressure of the offense strike.
”It seems you’ve learned to embrace the inner hollow, good… Hellias has been dying to come out.”
Placing the flat of his right palm in front of his face he splays his fingers out wide in a quick and sudden motion, his face lighting up as his reiatsu surges and his mask collects around his face. Once formed the mask resemble a shield, it has an elongated pentagon shape and a single crease down the middle to help it curve across the face. Where the eyes should be is a large ornate purple eye with a yellow iris. The eye takes up the full expanse of the top of the mask running just and inch and a half from the thin black border around the mask. Beneath the eye is a large black mouth similar to that of a jack-o-lantern.
”Well lets begin, shall we?”
As he speaks the mouth moves along with the words the thick darkness within the mouth seems to stick and goop as it moves, giving the effect that it is trying to escape. His voice seems to be gargled and almost gives the effect of two people talking Azuma and one with a thick raspy and venomous tone. When he finishes speaking he drops ready into a stance his palms splayed out in the tiger the eye on his mask flaring with energy it almost appears to be burning.
