???: Water Style: Drown.
Water comes up from under the wood, breaking the floating logs. The water covers around Renjiro faster than Renjiro can move out of the way.
Nobuyuki: Look at you. Trapped.
Nobuyuki is standing on top of the water. Renjiro's sword is attached to his waist. Nobuyuki holds his hands together in the ox sign.
Nobuyuki: All I have to do is hold my hands like this and you can't escape. I get to watch you die slowly by my hand.
Renjiro floats around in the bubble of water Nobuyuki put him in. Renjiro starts thinking to himself.
Renjiro: The one place I always get stuck in. Fucking water.

Kichi is sitting on the rooftops of a building at the edge of the city. He sees two men walk in through the giant gate. A blond man with spiky hair and an axe on his back walks through He has dark mist village anbu etire. A man follows him in. The man has a tall muscular build. He has long black hair that goes down half of his back. He has a green robe that leaves the top right of his torso open. He has a long sword that is perched on his back. He looks annoyed and disgusted.
Kichi: It can't be...
???: Gorou, why are we here. I hate how happy this place is. It makes me want to burn it down.
Gorou: Lucky for them Katashi, you don't know fire style.
Katashi: I could force one of them to teach me. Rough one up a little bit.
Gorou: If you rough one-up their head will pop off like it's nothing.
Katashi: That's the fun part.
Two pretty women walk past them.
Katashi: Ooh, Hello girls. After I meet Lady Hokage, why don't we go to a motel or something?
They shrug him off.
Gorou: Don't even think about killing them. We can't start shit before we even begin our actual plan.
Katashi grunts and follows Gorou. Kichi sees them walk inside the Hokage's building. The door to Tadako's office bursts open.
Katashi: Hello pretty lady!
Gorou: He's happy to see you.
Tadako: You didn't explain why you were coming through a letter.
Gorou: Lady Hokage, you know I'm a man of words. If I wanted you to know, you'd know.
Katashi jumps into a seat.
Katashi: Haha! I love these chairs. We don't have chairs like this in the mist village.
Gorou sits down in the other chair. He leans back. Tadako is dead silent.
Gorou: Lady Hokage, are you scared? I thought you were supposed to be strong. Was my information incorrect?
Tadako: I'm not scared of a fight with you. I'm scared of your friends.
Gorou's face turns into a hysterical smile.
Gorou: My friends, huh. Not the swordsmen though, am I correct?
Tadako: Correct.
Gorou laughs and then stops quickly.
Gorou: You don't need to worry about them. I'm here about the swordsmen. They will be a part of your tournament.
Tadako: There mist village shinobi.
Gorou: No, I believe they aren't. They are ex-mist village shinobi. Your flyer says, as long as the shinobi is no longer considered a ninja of that village then they may participate in the tournament.
Tadako: Why is it that the men of words always try to defy every document created?
Gorou: Because that's simply what we do.
Tadako: How many.
Gorou: It is called the seven swordsmen of the mist, but one of our members has been killed.
Tadako: So six of you.
Gorou: Four, I'm not entering the tournament.
Tadako: I think you have something wrong. If only two of you aren't going then it's five.
Gorou: I don't mess up. One other member won't be joining us.
Tadako: Why?
Gorou: That's none of your concern.
Tadako: It's my biggest concern.
Gorou: Then live in anticipation.
Tadako: Why did you come here. You know that you don't need to talk to me when there is no reason to.
Katashi: Even I could figure out there is a reason behind it.
Gorou: We'll talk to you soon, Lady Hokage.
They both get up.
Katashi: If any of the anbu following us happens to walk outside of Konoha.
Katashi licks his lips.
Katashi: I'll leave their head at your door.

Renjiro sits inside the water. He stares directly into Nobuyuki's eyes. The whole world starts changing around Nobuyuki. Then everything turns black.
Nobuyuki: I didn't see you pull out your sharingan. There's nothing you could do in here that's going to stop me from killing you.
Renjiro's circle around Nobuyuki.
Renjiro: How much do you believe in that statement?
Nobuyuki: There are many wills you can break, but mine will not be one of them.
Renjiro: All I have to do is make you weak enough to let go.
Nobuyuki: Try.
More Renjiro's start to appear around Nobuyuki.
Renjiro: How long do you think you'll be able to keep this up. Ten, twenty millennia. It'll only be a second in the real world.
Each Renjiro has a sword. They stab their swords into Nobuyuki over and over again. More Nobuyuki shows up everywhere. They are being stabbed too.
Renjiro: Why don't we make it 30 millennia. Just for fun.
In the real world, Renjiro is watching The Monkey sneak up on Nobuyuki. The monkey moves Nobuyuki's hands apart then runs away. The water flows off of Renjiro and Renjiro starts trying to catch his breath. Nobuyuki snaps back into reality. The chakra keeping him on top of the water disappears. He falls into the water. Renjiro jumps in the water and grabs his sword off of Nobuyuki. Nobuyuki wakes up.
Nobuyuki: Now you're in my realm! Water style: water scythe!
The water is about to slash into Renjiro. Renjiro puts his sword into the wave. His sword glows blue. He aims the sword at Nobuyuki and the wave fires out.
Nobuyuki:...
The wave cuts Nobuyuki in half. Renjiro quickly swims to the surface.
Renjiro: I never want to have to deal with water again. It's cold and I'm wet. I've had enough of it.
The Monkey sees Renjiro swimming to shore.
The Monkey: Hell of a team we make! We're unstoppable!
Renjiro shakes his head.
