Hayato was a lot more durable than Michirama gave him credit for. He barely seemed to react to Michi's Violent Whirlwind but never the less, Michirama had tried to push the attack. His stab with the scabbard had been partially successful but they were now in a standoff. The Scabbard was successfully through the loop of the bell but Hayato was holding on to the scabbard firmly to prevent Michirama from pulling the scabbard back and retrieving the bell. He'd forgotten to take into account Hayato's speed when under pressure, it was awesome really, he just had to hope he could reach that point some day.

There was no way he could yank the scabbard free from Hayato, their strength just had too much of a vast difference. But, Michirama had a trick up his sleeve. In an instant, Michirama's scabbard became coated in razor sharp wind natured chakra as he activated the flying swallow essentially turning his scabbard into a blade. It was a good example of Michirama's resourcefulness, he no longer had access to his usual katana so he instead made do with its scabbard. Due to the wind natured chakra funnelled through the Flying swallow technique, two things would happen. Hayato's left hand where it was holding the scabbard would be torn up, most likely causing Hayato to pull back as a natural receptor to sudden pain. Secondly, the ribbon that looped around the scabbard and was fastened to Hayato would be cut, freeing the bell.

Michirama wouldn't have a lot of time to act, the moment the flying swallow was activated, Hayato's hand was cut and the bell was freed, Michirama would flick the sbabbard upwards, dragging the chakra portion of it through the dirt before it rose upwards meaning Hayato would be forced to react to that or risk being cut into. Meanwhile, Michi's left foot would step forward onto the bell and slide it back where Michirama quickly scooped up the bell and jingled it "Like that?"
