The Casino of Death O.O

Location:

Spoiler:

So there he was, throwing all his money away, right into the slots. Sure it was only the 1 dollar slots, but when you have the luck that Tetsu Kokku has, those dollars go AWFULLY quick. He inserts his last dollar, pulls the lever, and the everything starts spinning. The machine clicks, he landed 7. Nothing special, it's just one. Another click signaling that the next spinner is stopped, it's another 7. By this time Tetsu Kokku's expression is filled with excitement, his heart's racing, the machine itself is going in such slow machine he can practically see every image clear as day as it spins, the final click. His eyes widen, the machine has busted, the third 7 has landed halfway in and halfway off the machine. The screen turns blue displaying the message "Out of Order" and Tetsu's face instantly turns red. He begins screaming uncontrollably for that was his last dollar, and begins beating the shit out of the slot machine whilst screaming at the top of his lungs. By this time the machine has been turned over and he is on top of it jumping up and down on it smashing as much as he can. "You stupid piece of shit machine! I'll fuckin' kill you! He screams at the top of his lungs.

Before finally calming down, the machine in shambles, Tetsu Kokku stands up and looks around to see if anyone is coming to remove him from the vicinity, slightly hoping someone would come over because he still has a bit of anger left inside of him and feels as if he could kill someone if the time had come. Before giving the now completely busted machine one final kick, Tetsu sits down next with his legs crossed and his elbows rested on his legs leaning forward so that his chin rests between his two hands. "Stupid machine... I didn't need you anyway..." He said as he remains seated, right beside the machine he violently, and illegally, destroyed.

Jiro looked at the man bashing up the slot machine. He saw the machine go out of order right as the man was about to win big. "Hey, could you keep it down over there or something? Playing is really hard when I can't concentrate." he shouted from across the casino, roughly 20 feet away from the man. As he said this, he got 3 7's on his slot machine and money poured out of the machine and made a loud ringing noise as it did so. It was as if the machine itself was taunting him by giving Jiro all this money.

Tetsu Kokku slowly stood up and turned to the man who had told him to hush his mouth, which Tetsu didn't take to kindly, although normally something so small as a stranger saying to "be quiet" wouldn't bother him, but he was pissed already at his machine. So as Tetsu stood, he gave the stranger a very powerful death glare before responding to the man's hush, "Do you know what I've just went through?! Don't tell me to shut it!!" His face turning red after the sudden out burst, "I'll kill your ass!" As his last sentence jumped out of his lips he reached his hand up to the blade that was strapped to his back while at the same slightly bending his knees and lowering his head while still giving the man his death glare. With a slightly more calm voice but still using a tone that showed he was still quite upset, Tetsu said, "My name's Tetsu Kokku, and I'm rather upset today, so be careful what you say." His left eye slightly twitched as he finished his line.

Jiro closed his eyes and unsheathed the sword strapped to his back, swinging it over his head and resting it in front of him, then moved his left leg back a bit, moved his right leg forward, and bent both knees.

"Getting mad over something like that? Truly pathetic." Jiro finally said, loud enough so that the man named Tetsu could hear him. He opened his eyes as he said this, revealing red Sharingan eyes of the 1st Tomoe variety, the small, red, curved dot spinning around and stopping eventually. With a stern look, the eyes would shoot fear into anyone's heart, especially with the somewhat angry face he had on.

And again, something like this would normally go right over Tetsu Kokku's head but today had been a bad day and he was on edge. Now, this machine took his last dollar and busted on him as he was about to win, so of course he's upset, and the words this guy was speaking weren't making matters any better. Tetsu chuckled a little bit, partially out of anger, partially to laugh off the anger, and he responded, "Sharingan? That your little trick up your sleeve? Well I have news for you!" Tetsu widened his eyes as if he were about to activate some sort of technique but then paused before saying, "I don't have sharingan... But a little fight with an uchiha would be enough to brighten my day." Tetsu's voice changed from a serious and upset one, to a care free and excited one. Bipolar? Nah. Tetsu pulled his blade from it's sheath and held it out in front of him, now taking a similar stance as the Uchiha while holding his sword in both hands pointed in front of him towards the Uchiha who was on the other side of a line of slots, "What's your name, Uchiha?" He said with a calm, excited and oddly intrigued voice.

"...Jiro Uchiha." he replied without care to the man who now seemed to also desire fighting at the moment. Jiro's hands started twitching slightly, which eventually turned into shaking. "Just give me a fight to remember." Jiro muttered lowly, so low that only he and Tetsu could hear it.

"Heh, apparently I'm not the only one getting excited..." Tetsu Kokku said with a smirk. He then reached slowly with his right hand, still holding the sword in his left, into his pocket pulling out two shuriken, Tetsu then speeds up a bit and throws one of the shuriken directly at Jiro's face and the other just slightly to his left, after throwing the two shuriken, Tetsu's sword still in his left hand, he clapped both of his hands together around the handle while yelling "Fuuton! Reppuushou! Causing a massive amount of air to forcefully blast outward from Tetsu's body, increasing the speed of his two shuriken to a much faster rate, normally unable to be seen by the naked eye, the difference this time though, Jiro is an Uchiha who has used his sharingan. Though only at the first tomoe, it's still the sharingan, and Tetsu understood this. The blast of air from his jutsu reached a good 25 feet away from him, and if Jiro were to remain where he was, the force from the jutsu could easily blow him backwards, along with the shuriken flying at an alarming rate towards the Uchiha, bits and pieces of the previously busted slot machine was sent hurling at the enemy as well. After this, Tetsu pointed his sword down holding it with the palms of his hands as he made a hand sign, directly after the sign was made, he vanished, reappearing to Jiro's left and then throwing a third shuriken towards the sharingan wielding uchiha, Tetsu's right hand now free from throwing the shuriken, he wields his sword still in his left with the blade reaching out in front of him, sharp side towards Jiro.

This would normally be impossible to avoid for most people, however it was lucky that Jiro possessed the Sharingan. With unbelievable speed, he leaped up to the ceiling, avoiding all of the attacks that were just thrown at him. If he didn't have the Sharingan, he surely would have been severely injured in that situation, but luckily, he was able to evade due to its ability. He now stared at the man from up on the ceiling, his Sharingan seemingly glaring into their very soul with its burning rage hidden behind such calm, tranquil eyes. The eyes of a serial killer, perhaps? It would be too soon to tell.

When the attack had successfully passed and he had avoided death by mere seconds, Jiro threw his sword, which landed behind his opponent and stabbed in the ground, then formed a hand sign with both of his hands. He poofed into smoke, seemingly as if he had teleported. In reality, however, he was moving at an insanely high speed. Without a sound, he appeared directly behind his opponent and picked up the blade, ready to perform a silent kill from behind as he lunged the blade, which was aimed for his opponent's back and would drive him through the heart if it hit.

Having his opponent throw his blade in that direction, Tetsu thought his opponent was intending to him with the thrown sword so he kicked off the ground at sharp enough angle so that he jumped to the right, as the sword hit the ground, it was then that he realized that this wasn't the intended attack, he quickly spun around about 90 degrees to the left so that Jiro's direction and his own were perpendicular with one another. Upon this turn, Tetsu swung his left arm upward, which was wielding his katana, and parried his opponents stab attempt. As the metal of the blades made a loud clang, Tetsu brought his right arm around, after grabbing one of his kunai, and thust his hand forward so that the kunai would shove deep into Jiro's stomach, with which Tetsu would then rip out through the Uchiha's side slicing open kidneys and any other major organs which might stand in the way of his sharp kunai blade. By this point, all the civilians who were in the casino have began hasting for the exit, Though there weren't many, only about 15 people, well 14 now once Tetsu noticed one of his shuriken from before that missed Jiro had continued traveling over the next row of slots straight through some man's jugular leaving his body laying on the ground soaking in blood.

Jiro quickly did a dodge roll backwards to avoid the kunai lunge. He got to his feet and back into his stance. "Time to kick it up a notch..." Jiro thought to himself. His eyes went from red to green, revealing a new Sharingan, unique in that not only could he predict the opponent's move as before, but could now read higher speeds. It wasn't a big improvement from his normal one, but it did something, which was all that mattered.

"If physical won't work at the moment... let's see if we can wear him down with Genjutsu." Jiro thought to himself and formed hand signs. "Mist Servant Technique..." Jiro thought in his mind. Shortly after, he formed another hand sign and exploded into smoke again. As he did this, dark bodies wearing gas masks rose from the ground and surrounded his opponent, all wielding kunai; Jiro was nowhere to be found.

"What the hell?" Tetsu Kokku thought to himself as several ninja arose from different areas of the floors. "You can't be serious. We're in a casino, everyone's done left, it's just me and you not counting that dead guy back there in the floor. So your telling me all these random ass ninja are just gonna pop outta nowhere just to help you out?" Tetsu Kokku bluffed, trying to convince his opponent to release his ridiculous genjutsu. Knowing that wasn't going to work, he put his kunai back into his pocket and began hacking away at the illusions and laughed as they began multiplying. After a few he put his hands together and formed a seal in sense to gather up his chakra, only instead of gathering, he was releasing. He stopped all flow of chakra in his body but only for a split second, just enough to release the genjutsu that was placed on him.

He looked around as all the illusions were gone, he got himself into a defensive stance of holding his blade with both hands and the blade itself was directly in the front of his body. "Is that all ya got there big guy? That was a pretty weak genjutsu, I'm not gonna lie." Tetsu said, enjoying his brief feeling of triumph. He maintained a defensive stance as he waited for Jiro to show himself and make his next move.

"Pretty good, I must say. I wasn't expecting this from someone who would get mad at a slot machine like that." Jiro said as he appeared on the ceiling in the same spot as before. "This place is too much of a wreck to fight further." the young Uchiha continued, breaking open a hole in the ceiling which he jumped through. He landed outside on the rooftop, which was all black and had a few vents. Jiro quickly took cover and hid behind a large vent to prepare.

Tetsu Kokku looked up at the hole in the ceiling, light was shining through rather brightly. He was about to jump through the hole before looking over at the previously broken slot machine and grabbed a few dollars that had been spilled out. "Cheat me outta my money will ya?" He said with a slight feeling of triumph. He then jumped up through the hole and appeared on the roof of the casino. It indeed was black, everything was painted pitch black, the vents almost seemed invisible due to the color. The roof was a lot larger than Tetsu had expected, it was several hundred feet from end to end atleast. He looked over the edge and he could see tons of buildings and all around as well as cars and people driving and walking down below. He looked around for Jiro, but the Uchiha was no where to be seen. Tetsu thought to himself, "Is he scared? Or is he just trying to find some time for some sort of trick?" In an act of defending his backside, he stood closer to the edge of the building, facing toward the center, about 10 feet away form the edge and held his sword out in front of him, ready to parry anything that was thrown at him.

Jiro put both of his hands together and formed a seal. "First gate... open!" he thought to himself. With his new-found strength, he ripped the vent off of the ground, picked it up, and threw it at his opponent. While it was heading for them, Jiro formed another few hand signs. "Fire style: Fireball Jutsu!" Jiro shouted, fire protruding from his mouth and blowing up the vent, blowing it up and sending flaming shards of metal combined with the remaining air from the vent to create extremely fast, flaming shards of metal and shrapnel shooting towards his desired target.

(OOC: I don't really see how that could blow up the vent in such a way, I would imagine that the vent just gets really hot rather than explodes into a ton of little pieces... But oh well I won't nit pick.)

Tetsu Kokku felt a sudden surge of fear as his foe released the first gate, he could see the sudden increase in strength as well as chakra, even if it was only the first gate. He had never witnessed this technique before. Thinking quickly, Tetsu clapped his hands together and yelled "Violent wind palm!" The sudden burst of air that protruded from Tetsu's body was more powerful than the last, he actually put some "oomf" into this one for he feared fast, sharp, flaming shards of metal flying straight at him. The jutsu blew out the flames and slowed the shards a good deal, although they weren't completely stopped having been throw by the first gate and then exploded, however they were slowed enough for Tetsu to have time to perform the one hand seal for his body flicker. Upon doing this he performed a few more hand seals from the backside as a powerful, sharp blast of wind changed direction to that of Jiro's.

"It's about time that I stopped playing around with him... I have to admit, he's far better than I expected." Jiro thought to himself. Tendrils shot out of his body from all angles. The tendrils around his legs made holes in the ground, and mounted Jiro in place. The rest of the tendrils around his body blocked him from the deadly winds coming at him, completely sheltering his body in a shield of dark, noodly, seemingly living tentacles.

When the wind subsided, Jiro quickly put his hands together again. "The second gate, open!" Jiro shouted out loud, the ground vibrating around him a bit now. He felt re-energized somehow, as if he was recovered back to the state he was in at the start of this casino brawl, a clean slate, if you will. With this new momentum, Jiro propelled himself forward at amazing speed, almost breaking the ground as he ran. He dashed into a zigzag until he was right up to his opponent's face in an instant, a murderous look in his eye, a glare that would haunt any soul with those menacing eyes of his. Jiro quickly raised his fist to bring it to the man's stomach. Jiro wondered what the man would do now, barely having time to react to something like this.

Tetsu Kokku couldn't understand how someone on this level could have such speed and power. Their was really nothing he could do right at the moment, nothing but take the hit. So he did, and what a hit he took. Jiro's fist going straight into Tetsu's stomach at the second level of the gates. He felt almost as if he could feel Jiro's hand come out of his back. He coughed up blood from the direct hit which fell to Jiro's feet as Tetsu knelt down in pain, with his eyes widened at the sudden turn of events, Tetsu finally regained his senses to that of him being in the middle of battle, with his left hand he grabbed Jiro's wrist of the fist that went into his stomach causing him much pain from before.

This was no longer something fun Tetsu wanted to do like fighting an Uchiha for the first time, he knew that this could be his life. So, with his left hand, he clutched Jiro's wrist, and looked up into his eyes, his Uchiha eyes with the single tomoe around his pupil, and with a small stream of blood coming from the left edge of his mouth he spoke, "It's not over yet, I don't intend on losing this fight!" With this, Tetsu squeezed Jiro's wrist harder as his right hand, still holding his katana, clutched the hilt with a much more firm hold. He slung up his blade in a sense of cutting the Uchiha's arm and then dropped it in a means of slicing his chest down to his stomach. He then jumped back about 15 feet before falling to his knees, he held his free hand to his stomach while sheathing his katana.

Tetsu Kokku then reached into his pockets pulling out 2 shuriken and threw them directly at Jiro aiming for his chest, the second shuriken directly behind the first, he then formed a single hand seal before seemingly disappearing and reappearing directly above Jiro's head about 5 feet with a kunai in hand, he threw the kunai straight down for the top of Jiro's head and clapped his together directly after while yelling "Violent wind palm!" Causing a large blast of air to press down from a very short distance straight down towards Jiro's head.

Jiro felt a sharp pain, not having much he could do, and forced to take the pain of being slashed. But Jiro's pain was overpowered by his desire to win this fight. Tendrils quickly shot from his body again, grabbing the two shuriken about to hit him, the remainder of the tentacles blocking him from the kunai and wind coming for him. Once another onslaught had passed, Jiro backflipped 20 feet away, and the tendrils stitched up the spots where he was slashed at, leaving stitch marks along the injuries. With his injuries patched up, Jiro clapped his hands again. "3rd Gate, open!!" Jiro shouted, sounding as if this was starting to put a bit of strain on him.

There was now a blue and green wave of chakra surrounding him, and his skin was now turning red. "I... am going to completely obliterate you!!!!" Jiro shouted in anger and rage, disappearing in an instant and leaving a huge crater where he used to be. He now appeared directly in front of his opponent and began aiming at his mid-section with lightning fast punches. This being even faster than before, he stood even less of a chance of dodging than he did last time.

Upon his landing directly where Jiro had been standing before flipping away, Tetsu Kokku drew his sword once more and held the blade pointed directly in front of him straight towards Jiro. Although tired and worn from another sudden burst of his chakra usage, he clutch his blade with the continued will to fight, he held his blade in a way of using his opponent against himself. He had hoped that his opponent's sharingan weren't on a level high enough so that even with the sharingan, the movements the third gate had opened couldn't be tracked, therefor Jiro wouldn't be able to see and stop himself in time before stabbing himself with Tetsu's sword. He then held his ground, and braced for the impact, he was nearly out of options, all he could do was stiffen up and flex every muscle in his body in a final act of defense.

Due to Jiro's rapid punching at the same time as his opponent raising his sword, Jiro's fists were cut from the blade, but due to stopping from the hit, that was the most damage that Jiro had been dealt. He quickly jumped back, appearing a second later 5 feet away from his opponent in midair, and performed hand signs. "Fire style: Fireball Jutsu!" he shouted, the huge fireball heading straight for him. However, Jiro wasn't done yet. He disappeared again, appearing again above Tetsu, 10 feet in the air this time, and shot out another fireball from above. He still wasn't done yet, though. Jiro then appeared 10 feet behind Tetsu, and tendrils now shot out of Jiro's palms, heading for Tetsu from behind as well, and would follow him if he were to escape somehow.

Tetsu Kokku's blade fell to the ground, rather, he dropped it the ground. It was almost as if everything were going in slow motion. Was it the adrenaline that was doing this? The adrenaline that was pumping through his body to the fact that he was about to die? He watched as Jiro fired his first fireball, then his second from above before appearing from behind. Both his hands now free, he clapped them together, once again yelling "Violent wind palm!" Blowing away all the fire surrounding him, and he then jumped to his right avoiding the tentacles. Upon landing from his jump, he continued to run. He noticed these tentacle things were chasing after him still, and gaining at an alarming rate, so he ran back to the hole they had jumped through and dropped back into the casino, he ran over to one of the rows of slots that were still intact and leaned over onto one of them, trying to catch a little breath before his foe could drop back down into the room. Every second was vital, at any second, he could breath his last breath.

Jiro's tentacles retracted back into his body, his blazing body still holding in. "The 4th Gate... OPEN!!!!" Jiro shouted, a shout that completely echoed the area and caused a huge wave of blue chakra combined with a green light to surround him, crushing the ground around him. Jiro stomped the ground with one foot, breaking the ground open. As the rocks fell to the ground, Jiro dashed through them at light speed, and eventually created a storm of small, sharp and jagged-edged rocks. Jiro quickly formed hand signs and raised it to his face.

"Fire style: Fireball Jutsu!" he shouted. The fire shot the storm of pebbles forward at his opponent. He then disappeared again, instantly appearing behind his opponent, in midair, and span in a spiral, spinning towards him, aiming to spin kick them in the back of the head. This started to create a mini-tornado around him, and started kicking up the ground around him.
