"Smooth like water and then swift like wind, Narumi! Focus!" Kira voiced strongly to his granddaughter as they sparred with one another. "Make your limbs flow like liquid before snapping into free and sharp movements. You can do it, Narumi. Faster, faster, faster." Kira pushed Narumi as he easily slapped her arms away from his body, just before she landed a strike on his frame.
Narumi dashed towards Kira again with her hands at the ready. Following through with his orders. "Smooth, smooth, fluid…STRIKE pierce cut, fluid, smooth like water. Around, bend. Smooth, jab, jab, jab, strike, grind, slice, cut, smooth, slow, smooth…" Narumi's actions flowed around moving between water and wind.
Just like her elements, but it was hard combining the two styles together, yet Narumi never gave up.
She added in a few surprise back kicks, flips and fast jabs, but Narumi couldn't find a hole in Kira's defence.
Her mind was solely focused on attacking Jiraiya with her new katas that he was teaching her to get accustomed to her body. Narumi had to admit, it was easier with this fighting style. It was fluid yet sharp and still had room for her to add in her unpredictable moves.
Kira's purples eyes widen slightly as Narumi's movements got faster and faster as the look in her eyes was sheer determination to master her new fighting style and land a hit on him.
Kira was in Narumi's position to get used to his new body measurement and inwardly cursed when his arms didn't move fast enough to protect his middle. Waiting for Narumi's palm to hit his free chest…but her hit didn't connect. Kira frowned and looked to the huffing blonde. "Why didn't you hit me, Narumi? You had the opportunity to land a direct blow."
Narumi looked up to Kira. Her eyes were mirroring his confusion too. "I'm sure I could've hit you. I should've hit you perfectly…but…" she retracted her arm and thrusted it forward once more. "I can't reach you. It's like my limbs are shorter."
"Stand up straight." Kira voiced and noted that Narumi barely brushed his shoulders. "You've cropped down by a few inches, Kid. No wonder you couldn't land a hit. We'll have to train harder for you to get your shorter limbs accustomed to your new fighting style too. Rather than before, your moves are graceful, like an enticing dance. Not a whirlpool of a hurricane."
Narumi sighed and looked to her hands. "How long do you reckon this will take, Ero-Kira?" Narumi asked and looked up to him. Although he was Jiraiya in heart, he wasn't able to give up his perverted tenancies. Narumi would've found him hard to be around if he didn't act slightly perverted. Even in disguise.
Kira rubbed his chin in thought. "Well, since you know the secret of Kage Bunshin, it would take about a week or so if we used them…" he looked at her in the eyes and saw the annoyance. "Right, right. No cutting corners and no giveaways. Just practice hard and you'll get there."
"I understand why you told Baa-chan about my situation, but is she really serious about placing me in ANBU if my cover gets blown? I will admit that I'm not ready to reveal myself, but isn't her part of the deal over the top?" Narumi asked as she turned her back to Kira and began going over her katas. No point in wasting time.
Kira sighed heavily. "You know how protective she is of you, Kid. Danzo and the Council are ruthless people Narumi, and even more ruthless against you." He noticed her falter in her katas at his words, but she continued on smoothly.
