The Battle Raged on

Shinra would be able to save Hotaru from the spear to her shoulder, the enemy being sliced up by the pinwheel like effect Shinra created, this resulting in him being chopped and killed in seconds. After Shinra would then communicate to his battalion and mentioned to watch out for what jutsu’s their attacks were reinforced with. Two members of his battalion noticed Shoka being choked and attempted to actually give him back up, using the same jutsu and shooting a bolt of lightning towards the individual. Though, it would be intercepted by two Rise members which appeared before the bolt and used lightning release chakra to actually intercept and reduce the attack and cancel it out. This saving the rise member who was choking Shoka, this young boy was in trouble and attempted himself to use a Kunai with Chakra to cut the man’s arm, but instead it resulted in failure, the blade would literally glide to the side of his neck, as it was completely ineffective, this was the effect of earth spear, it allowed the user to harden their skin to the point of diamonds making them almost indestructible. Of course with the exception of lightning release infused attacks. The members who attempted to protect the users who attempted to take down to Earth spear user would find themselves being fended off by other rise members as they were literally relentless on their attacks, any opening or any formation they noticed they would instantly jump on that opportunity and attempt to break that. The fire users would be intercepted by the rise members as well countering them so they couldn’t assist the lightning users who had their attack intercepted. The earth users would also be intercepted and stopped from assisting the fire users. These savages knew one thing and one thing only, attacking relentlessly without letting up. It was going to take something of equal standards to stop them, after all this battalion was trying to hard to be tactical against people who were savages and attacked head strong.

Meanwhile Hotaru’s clone who was performing the 64 palms, would be eliminated quickly being cut in half cleanly. The next clone somehow  tripped over a pebble leading to her falling and avoiding the Kunai which was coming straight for the nape of it's neck. Such a lucky clone the rise member thought as it bothered him, the moment she fell. He wasted absolutely no time and dashed forward at an incredible speed zooming through everyone and gave this clone absolutely no time to perform her next motion of wrapping the kunai in a explosive tag. This particular rise member hated making mistakes and he was going to undo the one he just made. A slight miscalculation, since this clone had fallen over and was preparing an attack, she would have literally almost no time to react to such an attack. If this happened successfully and her clone was destroyed her attempt to save Shoka would be instantly stopped since the clone would be no more. The clone dealing with the wind infused punch attempted to bop and weave, but that resulted in winds expanding and slicing this clone to shreds in seconds easily dispersing it. The earth spear never came from in front and ended up piercing the last clone's chest easily getting rid of it.

As for Shoka, he would literally be saved by pure convenience a battalion member of his own squadron followed and used his own Katana infused with lightning to chop the enemies arm off clean even with earth spear. The rise member yelled in pain and agony as he was then finished off by decapitation, though due to Shoka being under the impression of being choked he would be forced into unconsciousness. This leading to him being knocked out for a short period of time, the same member who saved his life would grab him and dash towards the iron sand dome and dropped him off the moment Shinra was fully recovered, 2 other members from the same battalion would follow up by providing a manji formation to keep Shoka safe at least for this short period of time. Had they not taken advantage of this chance, the members would be eliminated with swiftness as they would proceeded to kill Shoka shortly after.

Then Shinra followed by creating a large earth encampment this leading to the Rise still attempting to fight through it, all the lightning release user using their Katana’s or weaponry trying to cut straight through the walls of earth like butter. They refused to be held back and we're going to hit hard no matter what the situation was. Though Shinra would have a small time span to follow up with any plan as a large portion of the rise was busy. Though not all were captured as the ones who weren’t would be battling off against the rest of their battalion, though the numbers from the enemy army had dwindled and now only 150 rise members remained. Could the 2nd Battalion forge forward and kill the rest soon? Will they catch up and be able to provide cover for the 1st battalion? Had the 2nd battalion remained stuck in this predicament for much longer, they would be far away from the first battalion making it much harder to actually play catch up.
