OOC: Training for D Rank
"Ughhh... really?"
These were the words that left Koji's mouth as he talked to his adoptive father, Daiki. He had just learned that he was being grounded for a prank he had taken a part of a few weeks back. He and some local kids had went into the Iwagakure Academy after the younger shinoibs's classes were finished and scared them senseless. At first, Koji was only going to be grounded for a few days, but after Daiki heard that he was the ringleader of the prank and used his puppets as a part of it, he was going to give him a few weeks and possibly even months if he had to. With these things in mind, Daiki had taken away all of Koji's puppets and so this would leave Koji to think about his actions as all he did with his day was work with his puppets and get into trouble.
After being sent to his room, Koji decided he would rather train himself instead of be grounded in his room and snuck out the house. He made his way through the crowded village streets of Iwagakure until he came across his old hideout place in one of the older mountains. It had been months since Koji had last trained himself, but he wasn't going to let this disappoint him as he entered into the hideout. The hideout was awsome in Koji's opinion. It had many different things in it that most shinoibs would find interesting. There were weights for taijutsu training, targets for weapon training, and even some leftover puppet parts that Koji had used his puppets to destroy for practice. Koji felt as if he wanted to play cry as he could only think of his puppets being away from him for some time. During this time he guessed he could get fit so that he could hold his own in a one on one fight and not use his puppets. He examined the hideout and looked for something to train on. Then he found it.
Running across the hideout, Koji came acroos a wooden dummy that his friends would use to practice their hand-to-hand combat skills. He hit the dummy with his right hand and then quickly followed it with his left hand and then he got into the hang of it.
"Right punch, left punch, right punch, left punch....", these were the words going through his head as he began a steady beat of hitting the dummy.
After 15 or so minutes, Koji decided to incorporate some kicks and began to kick with his right foot and then followed it with his left foot. Before he knew it, Koji had begun to do the same thing he did with his punches, but instead with his kicks. He was actually starting to like this type of trainung until.
"Owww.... that hurt"
Koji quickly pulled in his right hand as he saw his hand bleeding. He couldn't believe it. He got hurt and wasn't even really fighting. It was probably a good thing that no one was around to see this or his popularity would go down the drain. Koji quickly tried to overlook this as he went back to punching the dummy for another 5 minutes until he wished to do weight training. Walking over to where the wieghts were at, Koji picked up the 20 pound dumbells, but quickly dropped them. They were a bit too heavy for him and so he decided to just go with the 10 pounds and began to do reps with this.
"I guess this is what I expected... I think."

IC:Koji quickly began to get tired of the gruesome training he was performing. Even though he had only been training for a few hours, it was clear that training Taijutsu just wasn't for him. He would let out a heavy sigh as he dropped the dumbells and he began to walk across the hideout to find something else to occupy his time. It was as he began to walk around, he saw the weapon targets. He thought about how he would always use his puppets to hit the targets and wondered how hard could it really be.
Making his way over to the weapons area of the hideout, Koji picked up a handful of kunais. Inspecting one of the kunais he held, he looked up at the target area and threw it with all of his might. As the kunai went flying across the room, it managed to skim the outtermost ring of the target. Koji couldn't believe what had happened. He had just examined his throw and then follwoed through and it was supposed to land somewhere near the bull's eye, but it barely landed on the target. Somewhat displeased with the first result, Koji began to examine and then throw each of the kunais he held.
A few minutes passed before Koji wasn't holding any kunais and he looked up at the target to see how he did. He couldn't believe that he was so bad at kunai throwing when he was in the Academy he was among the best. He was also upset for the simple fact that he was also a great weapon thrower when he used hsi puppets, but then it dawned on him. He made his puppets extremely accurate and therefore it was nearly impossible to miss their target.
Sighing heavily, Koji went to grasp all the kunai from the target wall and would start throwing the kunais back into the target hoping his accuracy woudl increase somewhat.

Traveling around the streets of Iwagakure, Ikego found an old looking hut that seemed abandoned. Curious, he jumped through the window and discovered it was a good place to conduct training. In between the old wooden walls were dummies to practive hand to hand close combat, there were targets for throwing accuracy, other wooden parts that looked as if they broke off of another dummy, and a shinobi all in the middle of it who was working on his accuracy by throwing kunai knives at the target. The sound of Ikego's feet echoed through the hideout as he landed from the window, and it was sure to catch the shinobi's attention. The light from outside the window reflected off Ikego's forehead protector that bore the mark of Iwagakure. _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Otamai, Jun Nikko Coloso Ikego Yokosuka Noko-ido, Minari RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: C-Genin/C-genin/B-genin Village: Kirigakure/Konohagakure/Iwagakure Fame: 200 Reputation: Training Points: 85 Inventory:
IC:"Ughh... this is oh so tiring... I want to quit but I know I can't
Koji thought to himself as he continued to throw the kunai into the target. It was wearing down the feeling of his arms and mind for the simple fact he had been throwing kunai into the same target repeatedly numerous times for the past half hour or so. By now his accuracy had increased, but it had also became a bit sluggish for the simple fact he had overdone it a bit. Sighing and letting the complaining come to an end, he continued on throwing the kunai.
In the midst of his training, Koji turned sharply because of hearing the sound of footsteps that echoed throughout the hideout. Quickly throwing the few kunai in his hand, he threw the kunai towards the sound without a second thought. He had threw the kunai with some power behind it, but seeing he was a bit sluggish he knew that if the target had any sense, they would probably move out the way. As he finally turned around to see what made the noise, he saw the kunai flying towards something with the Iwagakure symbol on the headband. It was clear that this what had intruded into the hideout.
Koji could only think of what would come of this. The person would move out the way or not. If they don't move they would get hit, but if they did move then the kunais would prove no potential threat but would possibly turn into a slight argument between himself and the intruder.
"Oh what excitement this would bring...." he thought to himself as the thoughts of what could happen went through his mind. _________________ Click Here!!!

Name: Senmetsuken Ryuu - Annihilating Fist Style
Requirements: Must be trained as a 12-point kinjutsu; must be a Taijutsu, Ninjutsu or Ijutsu Specialist
Description: This taijutsu style does not have any specific stances or techniques, yet it is probably the strongest style in existence. It is based on focusing large amounts of chakra into your limbs as you attack to obtain immense strength, thus dealing truly devastating blows, able to take down a whole building in one shot. A direct hit like that will be fatal to most targets, even large summoning creatures, unless they are able to provide strong defense against the attack. This can also be used in ways other than directly attacking an enemy, as it grants the user monstrous strength, not deals damage with chakra.
Koji's reaction was quick and pretty on point, Ikego realized that this shinobi was higher than academy level, and thus he decided that he would contribute to his training, if that is what he was doing. Ikego's eyes were locked on the kunai that was speeding towards him from the distance, he turned his body slightly to the right, and a loud 'clink' echoed throughout the hideout. The kunai was deflected by the Iwagakure forehead protector that he kept on his arm, and it slung to the side, sticking itself to the wooden floor with a loud 'thud'.
"Training are we? I am need of training as well, and this is a nice spot to do so," he stated truthfully. Although Ikego's Ijutsu skill was incredible, and his ninjutsu above average, he was entirely weak in the taijutsu department, other than his accuracy of throwing weapons, "Hmmm...my training would need to be a little different than yours though. How about we fight, and I'll limit myself to taijutsu only," he stated, "How about it?" he asked eagerly. _________________ Roleplaying Characters: Otamai, Jun Nikko Coloso Ikego Yokosuka Noko-ido, Minari RPG Stats: Shinobi Rank: C-Genin/C-genin/B-genin Village: Kirigakure/Konohagakure/Iwagakure Fame: 200 Reputation: Training Points: 85 Inventory:
IC:Koji looked up at the boy and saw him perfectly fine dispite the thud he heard from the collision of the kunai. Upon closer inspection, the kunai had been deflected onto the floor of the hideout where it had been knocked down to. Sighing in his head, he managed to avoid an arguement. However upon the thoughts he made as the kuani were still in mind flight none of them were anywhere near what had happened. The boy had offered to help him with his training if he helped him with his training. Seeing as this training could help himself as well as the other, he saw no reason to decline.
"Sure thing... let's start", Koji said aloud, "Oh and please take it easy for I'm a bit weak in fighting in any of the fighting styles be it Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, and even Genjutsu"
After these words left his mouth, Koji began to run at the other. As he ran, he managed to pick up a kunai that was laying on the ground and he threw it at the boy. Following behind the kunai as quick as he could, Koji came up behind it with a clenched fist that was aimed for the boy's stomach.
Ikego smirked eagerly as the shinobi accepted his offer, "No reason to take it easy. I'm training hand to hand combat only, and we're probably pretty close to the same level in taijutsu," he smirked as the shinobi began to run towards him, indicating the start of the match. The shinobi picked up a kunai and threw it as he ran. The kunai was aimed directly at his face, he leaned his head a couple of inches to the right to avoid the kunai, which was a blur as it passed him. He braced himself for the following attack, he stood in a battle ready stance, fists closed and held in front of him.
The shinobi followed the kunai with a clenched fist aimed at his stomache. Ikego raised his knee to block the attack, and followed up with a kick towards his face with the same leg he blocked with, then he would turn and aim his foot at the shinobi's gut. The shinobi spoke out as he attacked, ""...and what's your name?"
"Yokosuka, Ikego," he replied, following up that attack with three powerful blows of his fists aimed towards his head, before hopping backwards.
OOC: since they're pretty much the same in taijutsu, you should be able to block/dodge most of his attacks...give or take a couple...
