Yoroi Kaguya

So far, Yoroi's time spent in the village of Yugakure had been rather hectic, having had little to no time at all for sitting down and taking a moment to catch his breath. Even at night he was troubled by haunting visions of war and relatives being lost to darkness, which pushed him to the edge of sanity once he woke up, mighty panic attacks taking his toll on him. It was often hard for him to find a moment for sleeping, both because he was always busy with one thing or the other and because once he started sleeping, he would just run into more nightmares and wake up more miserable then he was when he went to bed in the first place. As such, sleeping and such was not really the kind of thing that stood high on his schedule at all.

Soon, Yoroi would leave the country and head back home, though that would not keep him from finding and taking care of the rogue that had been a plague on Yugakure for several weeks now. It was none of his business, that much was true, but what kind of person would he be if he just ignored the problems these people faced and just left. That in itself would undo all the work he had done for the people of Yugakure, which would in turn make him feel like a jerk and a bad person for leaving them to their fate. Him helping Yugakure had brought him this far, so there had to be some people that could help him find the guy that was responsible for scaring these people so much. The logical first step would be to ask the civilians, even though they had not been helpful at all up to this point.

Going by one person after the other, it seemed that people were a lot more helpful when they were in direct danger and felt like they would receive help. It seemed that now, pretty much every single person he asked had a story to tell about the guy, helping Yoroi a great deal. Having heard that this man was wandering the streets and interrogating people as to where he could find the medical facility. Supposedly being a man with black hair and a dark green trench coat, he would not be all that hard to find, seeing as he would stick out of the crowd quite a bit. It was not entirely easy though, seeing as they guy had quite some experience as a Shinobi in Yoroi's opinion, even if it was just because of how well he could hide.

Then, something entirely unexpected happened as a green trench coat got into sight. Walking straight toward Yoroi, he did not flinch either as he did the exact same thing, stopping when they were but a mere two meters away from one another. It did not take a rocket scientist to figure out that the men were inspecting one another, trying to figure out what they might expect from their soon to be opponent. Even to Yoroi, this was a very new experience that could very easily take a turn for the worse, or turn out to be an easy victory. Only time would tell.

Yoroi Kaguya

Meeting with the guy that Yoroi had been looking for after a good period of searching, the guy was exactly what Yoroi had imagined him to be like. A scruffy beard, messy black hair, penetrating brown eyes and a long green trench coat, covering up a flak jacket that was from a village he could not quite figure out. The lack of a headband made it all the harder for him to figure out where the guy had come from. Next to the things that any person could see, he also had several pouches on his belt, probably used to store small weapons like Kunai and Shuriken. Other then that, he could tell that the guy was not carrying any larger weapons such as swords, scythes or fans. Because he was a rogue, it was wise to assume that this guy had betrayed his village by going missing. What he did for a living now was just more despicable then turning his back on the village, no matter what the reason for his defection was.

"So you are the guy that has been trying to get inside of the medical facility. I don't know who you are or what you hope to achieve, though I won't allow you to steal what they worked so hard on" Yoroi said, his eyes locked on the man as he told him that there would be no way in which Yoroi would just step aside and let the guy do as he pleased. He still wanted to know what his reasons for doing all of this were, hoping that there was a way for him to stop it while they were both still alive. Yoroi was not entirely beyond believing that there was still some good left in people who had gone bad. It was because of Kimiko that such things existed in him, though even the things he had been taught could only take so much of a beating before shattering. The last time when Yoroi actually believed in the good of humanity, both himself and Shakreido nearly got killed and turned into undead minions, exactly why he was a lot less lenient now.

"You probably won't like my answer friend, though the reason for it is self preservation. With the great nations at each others throat, there is no way that someone like myself will just sit around and wait for one of you to attack. No, once I get this information, I am selling it to the highest bidder. After that, I am going to hide out until the war is over and use my wealth to live like a Daimyou. But don't worry, i'll blow the facility away when i'm done, so if you'd care to join me, I have an opening for a henchman" he said with a nonchalant smile on his face. From the sound of it, all this guy could manage to care about was himself. There were moments during their conversation that Yoroi felt like this was the kind of guy he might have turned into if he had never met Kimiko and Viera, if he had never gotten a family to look after. Whether this man never had one to begin with, had lost them or had just abandoned them, it did not really matter to Yoroi, all that mattered right now was that he had to stop this guy from getting what he wanted.

"If that is the only real reason as to why you are doing this, then I shall show no restraint. There is no way in hell that I am going to be letting you get out of here alive. If you want to prepare, do it now, for once we begin, every open you show me will be what gets you killed" he said, granting the man a very simple and fair warning. Yoroi was a living weapon, something he would do well to keep in mind, for he did not warn every person he ever met. Warning someone was the same as giving away the surprising factor, which was exactly why Yoroi never explained anything to the opponent that could give them an edge in battle. Yoroi was always looking, trying to find anything that could give away something about his opponent's skill sets and abilities they might try to rely on in battle. In knowing the opponent, one could establish a tactic and win before any fighting really went down.

Yoroi Kaguya

"Alright then kid, show me what you can do. I promise that I won't kill you right away. Hell, I might even keep you alive long enough for you to see the fireworks.". Again the nonchalance was just dripping from his body, not even caring about what Yoroi had just told him. It was a shame when people were stupid enough to just disregard such blatant pointers as if they had never been made. Yoroi seemed to have been wrong about this guy, he was not much of a Shinobi at all. He was all talk and no show, truly a shame. Men like him did not deserve to breathe in the same air that these people did, only corrupting it with his filthy soul. No, this fight had already been decided before it truly started, something this guy would figure out soon enough. Cracking his neck before dropping his coat, the black haired man started his approach, attacking with Taijutsu, just like he had expected from the guy.

The first attack was easy to see through, not requiring something as fancy as the Byakugan or the Sharingan in order to figure out the trajectory of his straight forward punch aimed at Yoroi's face. Catching the first punch with his open palm, he forcefully shoved it to the side while tugging at it at the same time, pulling the man alongside him, sending a powerful punch right into his side with his free arm. Seemingly unphased by the hit he had taken, he turned and launched a kick to Yoroi's side. Hitting it's intended target, Yoroi could feel his muscles ache, though the hit was not strong enough to get past his internal armor of thick bone. Retracting his leg and putting it back on the ground, he used it to send another kick towards Yoroi with his left leg this time. To his shock, the hit never landed, caught between several bones that jutted out of his rib-cage in a matter of milliseconds.

Standing still in front of Yoroi, he was not going to budge no matter how hard the guy pulled at his leg. Looking at Yoroi with a menacing look, Yoroi returned a stoic expression as always, though forcing his bones to grow through the leg, piercing it from several angles at the same time. With the sound of crunching bone and a loud scream, Yoroi retracted his bones and allowed the man to try and stand on his perforated leg. Not allowing him to work out a new attack, Yoroi attacked, dashing in low and having bones jut out of his chest, shoulders and back. Cutting the man open as he started spinning in circles in rapid succession, he utterly lacerated the man and tore the clothing from his body. Yoroi's Kekkei Genkai, the Shikotsumyaku, was the most powerful Taijutsu power there was, though that was all it was truly given credit for. Yoroi could do so much more with his bones then just fight in close combat, in fact, he had not even truly begun figuring out the full extent of this control.

When Yoroi stopped his spin, he also retracted his bones, save for one that had protruded from his palm. Simply watching as the broken and battered man tried to stay on his feet, he still had the same grin on his face as he reached into his pocket. Taking out a Kunai, Yoroi saw the way in which his arm moved, preparing to toss it at him as a last offensive. With a final well placed strike, Yoroi dodged the last resort Kunai attacked by dashing beneath it, launching the bone that protruded from his palm straight into his chest. Purging through flesh and bone like a hot knife through butter, Yoroi could eventually place his palm on the man's chest as the blade stuck out the other side of his body. A few seconds went by until the blood that had entered his lungs started to cause choking. It was not the best thing to see, though despite the hole in the man's heart, it was actually the lack of air, or actually the inability to breathe that killed him.

Retracting the bone from his chest and returning it to it's original state inside of Yoroi's body, the dead man seemed to try to move, though failing at it and falling backward into the sand. There was no life left inside of this man, that much was for certain, though the smile on his face and the eyes that were still wide open made it seem like he still had some life left in him. Grabbing the corpse by the throat and lifting him up, he tossed him into his trench coat while pulling his arms through the sleeves. Grabbing the coat by the collar, he lifted the body up and held his arm over his shoulder, allowing him to drag the body to the center of town. People had to know that his menace was taken care of one way or the other, and this seemed like the fastest way.

Yoroi Kaguya

Dragging the lifeless corpse behind him through the streets of Yugakure, he wanted everyone in town to know that the menace that had been plaguing their town had been taken down. He would no longer trouble their community any longer, nor would the medical facility be in any direct danger because of Yoroi's swift action. It was a rather morbid sight to behold, seeing the young boy carry the man by his collar, holding him behind him and simply dragging him with him, his legs scraping the sand from the road as they passed. It did not take long before the people started gathering behind him, following him as they started realizing who the corpse was that he dragged along. Striding on, the mass was getting bigger and bigger as more of the happy civilians massed up behind him in happiness. Though none of them knew Yoroi's name, he could tell that the people were very happy with the thing he had done for them.

After a few minutes, he arrived at the City hall building, the place where the Daimyou lived with his family and his advisers. Placing the body on the doorstep of the city hall, everyone would be able to see that the one that terrorized the community had been taken down. Standing up straight as he prepared to leave, the crowd started cheering and applauding, causing an uproar in front of the building that made the Daimyou himself peak his head down the balcony and see the corpse laying next to the white haired youth. Knowing little to nothing about what his people had been through at the hands of the man, he went back inside a few minutes later, closing the door behind him to silence the chanting. Still, Yoroi was happy with the knowledge that these people truly appreciated his help, rather then continuing to treat him like an outsider that wanted to steal from them.

Now all that remained was to head back to the hotel he was staying at so that he could meet back up with Ophelia. Taking one last look at the man he had just killed, he closed his eyes and removed the grin from his face, allowing him to rest in peace. What the townsfolk wanted to do with him now was their business, it did not affect the young man any longer then it had done already. Right now, he was finally able to move on and head towards leaving the country. To think that he had come for a package, yet managed to help out a medical facility, kill a missing shinobi with bad intentions, help a foreign village and meet someone as great as Ophelia, he could not really feel any better.
