Akira could just see the explosion go off as he ran towards his comrade but was too late as Ryouta was blown back and knocked out against a tree. However, in the last possible moment, Ryouta’s golden shroud had protected him from a part of the explosion; preventing some of the damage from being done.

“The mission comes first.”

Repeating the rule in his head, Akira ran on towards the sounds of combat, leaving his fallen ally lying unconscious against a tree; surrounded by bodyparts.

The white haired Suiton user brushed some blood from his face as he jumped up in the trees and began hopping from branch to branch before coming to a halt above 7 yards off the ground; hiding behind the trunk of a large tree, while standing on one of its crooked limbs.

Looking past the rough bark Akira could clearly see Dante fighting the opponent; aiming to throw the villain up in the air by an expansion of chakra. Taking this opportunity, Akira jumped out of the tree, several yards above the opponent, and finished weaving his hand-seals in amazing time for a Genin so that his Jutsu was ready when he aligned above the adversary. The boy leaned his head back an inhaled through his nostrils, which flared up, before letting loose a gushing torrent of spiraling water that rushed down to aim and slam into the opponent; driving him down into the explosions with heavy concussive force that could possibly damage the man internally. The force of the torrent was enough to keep Akira suspended in mid-air until the explosions occurred, pushing back against the water, causing Akira to be blown back a few yards before he landed on the side of a tree; chakra coating his feet.

Tilting his head up he looked over at Dante who was nearby, on the ground, and then asked him. “Which direction was he escaping too? We should head over there.”

If Dante would lead the way, Akira would follow.
