Shinra and Shoka's Duel

While the giant was trying to speak, Shinra took it upon himself to interrupt him. That was... rude. The giant just seemed to grimace, contemplating to himself already understanding.

'''Why do they always have to fight? I mean, I suppose I would too.'''

The giant thought to himself and already understood what he needed to do. Even standing away from them, he could still just attack him. Why is that? Well, Shinra and Shoka would find out soon enough.

While Shinra was speaking to Shoka trying to set up a plan the giant literally brought back his right hand holding the axe even though there was nothing to strike at and put all of his weight straight into his swing before taking a swing at the air itself. At the same time, chakra instantly formed around his axed and shot out like a cascading beam of energy straight towards Shinra. The Flying Swallow, a powerful inline jutsu that could turn a kunai into a sword to cut through almost all things before it.

It was a pure blade of chakra originating from the axe, its edge condensed and concise that only the strongest of techniques could repel its sharp assault. Given it was a sweeping attack from the right side (or Shinra's left) he couldn't simply leap towards another direction because the chakra blade would either already be there or simply reach him there. If he tried to duck and move out of the way, it'd lob off his head instead. Shoka however...

Instead of moving out of the way and taking any sort of advantage after opening the breathing methods, chose to run straight in front of Shinra. Given his enhanced strength and speed he could do this relatively easy, what he had was comparative to the 1st gate of the notorious Eight Gates. Of course with all that momentum moving in that one direction as the Flying Swallow was literally moving to clash against him while he just simply prepared to fire them at the giant. At this point, Shoka practically sealed his own fate. The moment he had going for him and his focus being entirely on his bow as he put chakra into it, there was no way for him to practically just evade this attack. The only thing that could save him now was Shinra, but if the strategist thought too much on the young Uchiha then he would only be caught in the crossfire.

If nothing was done to save Shoka, from his torso he would literally be cut in two as the Flying Swallow passed through, sending his upper half flying up before coming down while his legs would just crumple over and lose their vitality. A similar fate would await Shinra if he simply stood behind his friend in the presence of the sweeping blade coming towards him.

During this time, another interesting thing to keep in mind while Shinra and Shoka were blind-sided by this slightly-displeased giant that his other hand holding the hammer was swinging it overhead on the rope like a weight. The hammer and the rope seemed much darker as did the giant's hand, covered in a jet-black color.
