Stepping off the boat was four ninja from Kumogakure. Three Anbu Trainees and one active Anbu Ninja masked and in his armor. As they stepped off, the boat sped off headed back to Kumogakure leaving them with the Island Turtle to them selves and those that were naturally stationed upon it to keep watch and protect the beast. Ondori bringing a new look and weapon to his arsenal, he wore a black short kimono, that was tied at the was it by a rope bit of cloth, and also had the left sleeve reaching to the wrist rather than elbow. Black shinobi pants that stopped right below the knee, then Ninja Tai on his feet with bandage wrap to meet his shinobi pants. Underneath it all was mesh armor and his forehead protector on his forehead. On the back of his short kimono was not only ht Nara clan insignia, but also his wakizashi with the hilt extended to his right side for easy accessibility. The group walked to the foot of the dense forest, then the cell leader stepped in front of them and turned to face them as they looked passed him at the mass of vegetation. The shallow breath he took before speaking was enough to draw their eyes back to him in an instant. "As you should know, this is the Island Turtle. An ancient beast whom we as Kumogakure ninja protect and in turn the beast lets us use its mass for training, prison facilities, and many other things. Today and throughout the night into the course of evening tomorrow, we will be utilizing a sector for your training. Your task . . . is to work together and subdue your target before the time limit is up. This time limit like said before being tomorrow afternoon. You are not to severely harm nor kill the target, only capture just like you'll be required to do many times out in the field. Your target . . . will be me." Ondori saw that coming, but wasn't really scared. He had grown quite well into his abilities and felt capturing the Anbu ninja would be possible with the help of his teammates if they cooperated of course. Alone the task would be next to impossible. "And what are the rules in regards to you harming us?" The Anbu ninja directed his focus towards Ondori and released a small chuckle. "I knew I'd end up liking you. Lets say that just earned you a bit of favor in my eyes so I'll try not to kill you." The others seemed offset by this and to be honest Ondori was as well, but sadly their life wasn't much of his concern aside from them carrying their weight to complete the mission. "If there are no more questions, then we'll start . . . now."
A plume of smoke accompanying his parting words the man was gone and left the three in each other's company, the boat having long departed. "We'll need a battle plan first and a formation to follow so we can be most effective when we encounter and hopefully end this in one encounter. He's more skilled than us so splitting up is out of the question and that also means the more times we encounter him the more he'll wear us down and make success impossible." Ondori was just speaking off the mind, but his teammates were tuned in with what he was saying and seemed to have no problem with letting him take the role of leader. "I'm a secondary fighter and play more of a support role or trapper, so we'll take a reverse triangle formation. I'll be back point and you two take front. If you keep him under heavy assault hopefully I can trap him and we can take him out and be home by tonight. Good?" They nodded, then head out into the forest. The whole while they entered Ondori kept his sensory radar roving the area until he caught a trace of the man's signature. "Feeling a signature about 45m North." In formation, Ondori informed them from about three tree branches worth of space away -10m-.
Heading to the location they stopped outside the clearing where the Anbu ninja stood alone. This has to be a setup, he's supposed to be hiding from us if anything not just welcoming combat . . . But we can't pass up the opportunity still . . . "Ready when you guys are." Ondori whispered keeping his thoughts of doubt to himself. Holding up his hand for a countdown, one of the ninjas taking point initiated the assault leaping down with the other. One would land in front and one behind the Anbu ninja with blades drawn and seining downwards to cleave the foe they expected to dodge. Ondori stayed put to watch their backs, but noticing the frame hadn't even budged it was obviously a substitution jutsu. *Poof* it went as a block of wood replaced it and in that moment Ondori was grabbed from behind. Snagged off the branch he was on and being held by the collar of his short kimono as he was forced to descend the branch, the Anbu ninja was slyly watching over his own diversion. Slamming Ondori front first against the ground by the back collar of his garment. Pinning him, the sound of a blade unsheathing made the teen's heart thump and eyes grow wide through the pain. "Guess all you're good for is that mind of yours huh?" Sending his blade downwards, Ondori would utilize the Hiding Like a Mole Technique before and seep into the ground far below the surface so even the blade digging into the earth wouldn't harm him. Where he would go was deep, then back up to a shallow depth before sticking his hands through the surface to grip the ankles of his opposer. "Eh?" The Anbu ninja felt the hands and was quick enough to move one before it got drug into the ground. "Cute" In a matter of mere milliseconds he had blazed through hand seals and touched the earth releasing powerful voltage that destroyed the ground around him freeing his foot and forcing Ondori to flee.
Where he fled to was where his allies were, where he would surface and sense to direct them towards the ninja. "No time to explain quickly, lets catch him." Just like that the chase was on, but with the target in sight. They weren't catching up to him, but he also wasn't gaining any ground being about 30m away traversing on branches. A quick set of hand seals then Ondori utilized the Swamp of the Underworld technique which began to cause the trees his foe as traveling on to quickly sink into a muddy marsh and also caused him to lose balance due to the sudden shift in object placement. Using the wall walking technique the Anbu Ninja would find footing on the side of a sinking tree, before quickly launching off it before being drug under. Ondori's team would then use the tops of the sinking trees to close in the space, before all the vegetation was sunken and lost.
Past the creation of the swamp the team was now on the ninja's tail and soon enough they stopped in a clearing, it was time to fight it out. Immediately Ondori leaped to the air to slice downwards at the Anbu ninja after a frontward flip to increase his momentum. Stepping back his target easily parried, but then Ondori would leap sideways for his parent to expel a fireball jutsu at the man. "Geh, Gian!" The Anbu ninja countered accordingly, but with a more powerful jutsu that would pierce the fireball, disrupt it, and continue towards Ondori's ally. Forming the Serpent Handseal as he jumped in front of his ally, he used the Earth Spear jutsu on himself and allowed his jutsu to absorb the remaining power of the Raiton Jutsu. Ondori's darkened skin fading as he canceled his jutsu, his other partner was steady swinging away at the Anbu ninja. The assault was relentless and this was good, if they could keep the pressure up, they could succeed. "Get in Taijutsu range of him, I have a plan." With that Ondori formed the Rat hand seal and connected his shadow to his teammate who shot eh fireball jutsu. The man nodded then proceeded to do as he was told. Assisting the other in close combat, Ondori was then able to snake his shadow out the rest of the length and tag the Anbu Ninja locking him in place. With this the strike of his teammates landed then with a few hand seals Ondori used the Shadow Sewing Technique puncturing he man through his muscles rendering him unable to move. "Success."
