Shien seemed to be ready judging by his snarky comment. As Michi was drawing his Katana, Shien took off, charging him head on at full speed. Michirama didn't budge he didn't seem to make any sign of moving out of the way. His eyes were locked on Shien, following his every movement, waiting, calculating. At five meters Michi had made his decision, his katana had passed the halfway points. At two meters his hair stood up on end as chakra, no not any chakra, but wind natured chakra was channelled through his hair, by this point it was too late really. As Shien was coming in for a close quarters attack he left himself with almost no room to manoeuvre. His fan was currently on route to Michi's stomach meaning it was in no position to counter Michi's use of the Hair Needle Senbon technique.

With Shien right up close and personal, Michi would fire off a blanket of Chakra hardened strands of hair coated in razor sharp wind natured chakra making them capable of tearing through flesh like a fish through water. The number of 'senbon' hurtling towards Shien at high velocity was uncountable but Michi had to guess the number was closer to the thousands. At this range, the effects would be like that of a shotgun fired point blank. His face would be torn up, vital points pierced, even the armour he was wearing would be worse for wear as even they could only take so much strain. It was safe to say that a majority of the blanket would hit the upper portion of Shien's body, possibly even tearing up his fan in the process.

This jutsu would hopefully cause Shien to stop dead in his tracks due to excruciating pain. Using this moment, Michi would jump back a good ten feet, his katana now fully drawn and his blonde hair falling back to its original place. Michi's ripple like eyes would be very serious, he wasn't here to play around. He wanted to believe that Shien wouldn't be over and done with so quickly but he was surprised as to why he had chosen to close the distance instead of attack from range. He'd ask him afterwards perhaps. For now, Michirama adopted a defensive stance, standing side on to Shien with his scabbard held in front in a horizontal fashion while his katana was held above his head in such away that its true length was masked.
