Role play Log: 
☀Keruberosu: |GH| -It was a normal day in Konoha the leaves were stirring and a blanket of semi warm sun set over the village. Garric Hyuga the pride of his clan or so he brashly considered himself, He was sitting on the roof of his current residency in the Hyuga main branch families manor. His deep bronzed skin was only a telling tale of how much he was at this exact spot it was his zen area of sorts. The only place he could go and not be bothered by the outside voices of the world or the ones within his own head. While sitting there a messenger owl would appear open its wingspan the large shadow it casted over his body blocked out the rays of the sun for a few mere seconds before landing next to him. Unhinging its mouth it dropped a tiny scroll with a jonin seal on it. Garric grabbed it and snuffed silently thinking it was once again a useless mission tasked to him by another jonin again. But open opening the fresh parchment he read over it briefly and as fast as he could. His eyes focused solely on who it was signed by he couldn’t believe it. The jonin that was known for his prowess in taijutsu and the creator of the Zen gates, Lagi Makoto sent him a message asking for a fight/ welcoming to Squad 00. The owl would look at the human crooking its head at a complete 90 degree angle as he watched Garric sprint off the building and head outwards into the town. The parchment within his clutches he flashed a large toothy grin that was plastered all over his face as he ran at top speed. For carrying so much weight for his age this kid sure was fleet of foot or at least this is what he thought of himself. Barreling through people in his walk way taking short cuts and back alleys to reach his destination faster his fist waved in the air screaming. “Baka, MOVE!” in this thick Japanese accent. On this day like most others he was sporting his long sleeve top or some would tease him and call it a split kimono. He wore the normal Konoha shinobi headband and his arsenal that he usually kept in his back two butt pouches were as included. 6 kunai, 2 shuriken, 5 smoke bombs, 6 paper bombs. 2 of the 6 kunai where resting of opposite thighs in case of a need of quick movement or weapon clashing. He stood there and his eyes starred longingly at his opponent a famous shinobi a man of stature he only hoped to reach. Garric would quickly bow out of respect and immediately entered his gentle fist stance. Place his right arm outwards with an open palm his left arm closer to the body making a fist and his legs shoulder width apart. “You may be my Sensei now; you may be a famous ninja. But Garric trumps all in his path, let’s see if you can even make a dent.”- |GH| 
Lagi stood with his arms crossed about his chest and with little hesitation he let out a brief gust of air from his lungs. He revealed to be a seemingly older male with light grey hair cut at the bottom, brown skin, pale blue eyes, high cheekbones, lean build, and blackened earrings with small red orbs attached to their ends. He possesses black, Kanji tattoos that run across his back and along his arms. He simply stood in front of his new found student. He began to smirk a bit as he soon watched him take up his own combat stance as Lagi soon followed. He removed his geta with little hesitation kicking them off to the side and with that his weathered feet touched the gravel. He soon began to wiggle his toes as he took up an offset boxing stance. He slowly positioned himself with his right foot facing his student and his left foot offset to the left just behind the right. He soon spoke his voice bellowing forth to his opponents ears “Shall we begin”
Keruberosu: |GH| -Garric wanted to test the waters with Lagi at first knowing his Taijutsu was most likely stronger and more experienced then his own. But both since not knowing each other had their own aces up their sleeves. Garric have his Dojutsu and the fact he knew both famed fighting styles the gentle and strong fist respectively. Garric would make a large smile at Lagi’s words he only taking a split second to respond simply with. “Look fast”, Garric would lift his right foot off the ground slightly and then he tilted his upper body forward at almost a spear like angle and then the large figure that was once Garric who was once in that spot disappeared into thin air. Using the technique known as Body Flicker jutsu he would already be in his gentle fist stance but mid swift movement he dipped himself lower so once he re-appeared he would be bent enough in the stance to be shorter then Lagi. Since Garric had the slightest of height advantages, once reappeared he was charging into Lagi abdomen almost but his left open palm aimed for the upper left chest peck. Also due to the fact his left arm was already most forward the hit would have a higher chance of hitting due to the upwards speed and inertia that the jutsu provided. If the open palm made its mark it would cause a decent amount of pain. If Lagi was caught enough off guard would it could put him on a backward tilt. This could lead to the beginning of his Eight Trigrams 64 palms combo. Something Lagi most likely was completely unaware of at the time seeing as they just met one another. The intensity in which Garric threw his body forward could be seen in the sheer look in his eyes he had complete focus on the target. This left him oblivious to the fact Lagi could easily avoid this if he noticed fast enough or had even an inch of wittiness. Whilst mid punch his right foot began to twist in preparation for the beginning of the combo, Garric was known for brash actions and overall overconfidence so his assured nature made him preemptively begin to make the next move without even knowing if the first one was going to be a success. If it did land like planned his closed inner fist would finally be in enough range to make its debut and he would deliver another strike this time into the lower right side of his body a finger jab to the soft tissue.- |GH| 
Lagi revealed to have a smile of his own upon his face the moment his opponent found themselves dispersing into near nothingness only to have their image emerge directly in front of his position. This in turn proved to be a fatal mistake as it was if Lagi’s own chakra carved a ring around his own position. His chakra flared up around his body revealing one of his more practiced techniques known as Lightning Chakra Mode. The moment this happened Lagi’s image would prove to be nothing but an after image as he sent himself into the air above his opponent. Had he chosen to look up he’d only find that he’d be met with a rapidly descending fist. Had this proved to be the case Lagi’s lightning enhanced movements would continue to remain a blur even if he missed has his student had chosen to encroach on his position again after his fist would’ve most likely collided with the ground there would only be a massive crater with nothing but uneven ground and rubble to stand. If his student had somehow managed to escape the epicenter of the impact Lagi in turn would reveal to be impressed a simple smile plastered across his face.
|GH| -Garric’s hand was so close to hitting Lagi he could almost taste it but just when contact was about to be made. Swoosh was the only sound that could be heard as he disappeared from thin air in front of him. Garric was guessing he was so quick his feet or body didn’t even make a sound when he moved. He could only smile and laugh at this point this man that was now his Sensei surely was living up to the infamy he gained throughout his years of being a skilled shinobi for the leaf village. At this point Garric was smart enough to know there was an attack coming but from where was the question so within this instance his forehead veins bulged forth and his eyes popped and dilated forward and he yelled out. “BYAKUGAN” Now within a 50 meter radius he could sense and react to all possible incoming danger better then normally without the Dojutsu added. Now Garric had a clear perception on the situation yet he still didn’t know what jutsu was making him move so fast. Since previously his right in closed fist was already building chakra into it he would be able to hopefully fend off the damage as much as he could. Now it was time to act, Garric’s right foot was still mid-spin pivot as he was hoping to land the hit and begin the Eight Trigrams 64 palm combo that was customary of the Hyuga. So at the climax of his spin when his ankle finally finished making the full rotation he looked up at Lagi coming down at him like a damned missile with lightening release chakra mode no less. This finally busting the myth of how he was able to move with almost no sound in his motion. Whilst in his bent stance he reached up right fist upwards and bent his upper body to the side a little bit so hopefully the fist would blaze past him he yelled out. “Smart move, but maybe not enough Sensei. VACCUM PALM” Due to the fact he was moving so fast down into him it’d be most likely he would be able to avoid this and the jutsu was instantaneous once activated. All the chakra Garric had built into his right hand expelled with a high velocity wind that was pin pointed to hit him directly in the chest. So in retrospect the pain would almost feel like falling down onto a spear since cheekily Garric aimed the jutsu rights into the area of his chest were the large scar laid hoping to add another layer he hoped. If it landed as hoped which due to circumstance it should he would experience a lot of pain and most likely miss the punch due to Garric’s body movement due to the help of Byakugan allowing him to react just fast enough to tip things in his favor.- |GH| 
Lagi smirked upon his descent as garrick had indeed thought up a decent counter attack and with that Lagi’s image indeed did change course. If one were to look where his image had previously been falling they would in turn find that there was a near paper thin platform made of nothing but water. This was done with the heat generated from his lightning chakra mode allowing the warm air that existed around his body to cool and perform condensation beneath his feet. This allowed the excess water vapor to turn into water and with that Lagi moved himself out of his students range with ease. His lightning chakra mode soon subsided as he touched upon the earth his he’d simply outstretch his right hand as if he was grasping a baseball and with that he’d simply wait for his students next move.
|GH| -Normally now when he moved in lightning release chakra
mode he wouldn’t have been able to see Lagi. But his Byakugan gave him just
enough of a view to get a clipped image of his body moving. This only opening
Garric needed to have quickly he grabbed a smoke bomb and threw it down on his
position and whilst the smoke spread and Garric’s body shortly disappeared
within the thick smoke after a few seconds. Garric had a plan that would
hopefully catch him slipping he wasn’t a sensory type nor did he have the
intuition to know that such an academy jutsu was able to put in usage like
Garric was about to. Garric would proceed to make a clone using the normal
clone jutsu and then Garric came to the edge of the smoke he could clearly see
through thanks to his Byakugan he threw two Shuriken with speed moving towards
Lagi. But what couldn’t be seen on paper is that only one of the Shuriken was
an actual Shuriken Garric had used transformation jutsu and made himself into
the other Shuriken just so he could get in extremely close range without being
considered enough of a threat to attack it head on. After the shuriken came
from the smoke so did Garric’s clone. Also the smoke warping around the shape
of his body as it left the smoke. Giving it the illusion that this was the real
person and he was the one who threw the shuriken. Then said clone began to run
at top speed making a large inward run towards the right side of Lagi, his body
dipped low into the gentle fist stance like it has been this entire time. But
once he got in close enough position it cocked its left arm back and slung it
forward with a large open palm and attempted to smash it into Lagi’s face. But
like he was soon to find out regular clones that aren’t shadow clones are
transparent and whatever he did or what the clone did would go directly through
him. This whole time the Shuriken traveling and getting ready to strike Lagi.
Depending on how he reacted to the two side attack or at least this is how
Garric solely saw it at the moment. Garric knew he had him on the ropes and it’d
be a cake walk from this point on, there’s no way he could possible know the
difference.- |GH|
BaransuKenzai: The
 moment his student found himself throwing down a smoke bomb Lagi indeed
 changed his choice of jutsu, with that in mind he clapped his hands 
together using the bit of sweat that had formed and melded it with his 
own chakra. In passing this may have seemed like a very basic tactic but
 instead his student would find the shurikens he’d thrown being met with
 a sticky and viscous substance as Lagi flung forth his hand. This in 
turn met both shurikens with a substance so thick it’d stop their 
rotation mid air causing them to fall to the earth with little 
hesitation. Had his student in turn proved to be one of those shurikens 
he’d find himself glued to earth in his transformed or human state. If 
his student had chosen to transform into his human state mid-flight Lagi
 would simply raise his leg in order to deliver an axe kick accelerated 
by a bit of his own lightning chakra. Had this proved to be successful 
his student would find the ground he impacted with to become nothing but
 rubble beneath his physique.
Keruberosu: |GH| -Garric 
couldn’t believe Lagi simply ignored the clone this was truly a 
testament to his combat experience being smart enough to know it was 
just a decoy impressed him and once the substance shot from his hand and
 at the Shurikens Garric popped from the transformation only to be 
caught within it. He generated heated chakra through the substance in an
 attempt to break it but this was short lived since his focus was on 
breaking free he had completely ignored the fact that Lagi was already 
mid motion. Garric would only smile and watches the kick come towards 
him it was almost a moment that played in slow motion for him, he was 
never used to the sweet taste of defeat but he was humble nevertheless. 
Garric spoke while watching him “You got this r---“ And before he could 
even finish his sentence the kick mercilessly landed directly on his 
head making his body twist and curtail straight into the ground. His 
foot against his face blazing the skin slightly with the speed and force
 of impact delivered. His eyes that were once dilated and popped 
retracted along with his Dojutsu the Byakugan and his body crashed into 
the ground making a large dent and smoke protruding forward the loud 
crash ringing through the open air and the crash and force of the kick 
made a small bomb like wave of wind crash throughout the ground causing 
some blades of grass cut. Once the smoke cleared Garric laid in the 
crater his face in the dirt and blood leading from the top of his head 
and his left eye since it made direct contact with that side of his 
face. He was out cold there was no doubt to this fact, within his own 
unconscious mind he was floating around and smiled a blood ridden toothy
 grin. “I lost, damn that man is strong.” - |GH|
BaransuKenzai: The
 moment Garrick found his body colliding with the ground moments after 
being kicked Lagi kneeled down next to his seemingly limp body and with 
that he’d pick him up and throw him over his shoulder. Lagi’s image soon
 vanished with his students physique amongst his own only to deliver him
 to the village clinic to have him patched up. In passing Lagi made his 
way to the clinic window and with that he vanished slipping into the 
city streets only to blend in with the crowds of people that had been 
passing by.
[Lagi is the victor.]
