Task 2: In the Observatory

~He looked around the lush world and glanced at the monumental landscapes. So this is what was inside the castle... not only that, but it was only a portion of something much bigger.~
"T-Train? In here?"
~He said looking around in amazement. So if a day here was an hour in the real world, he knew that Mahk-x would have him staying here for about a month at the least. But strangely, he would be okay with that. He was a bomber. The less people that knew he existed, the better he would be at his job due to element of surprise.~

"Are you overwhelmed? This is where I always train my wards... you made it to my house, a feat within it self for you see not everyone has the ability even view my floating fortress let alone make it to the top."

-*But Kham stopped, and turned towards Hide when they reached a clearing he clenched his fist, causing the diamond to increase in weight to a good couple tons or whatever weight would be necessary for hide to be unable to use his arm causing it to lay on the ground to a point he would be nearly immobilized by its weight*-

"Now it is time you know suffering, you will not rest... ever, you will fight me until you die. And if you die then you weren't worthy of my training in the first place."

~As the weight suddenly intensified, Hide fell to a knee, catching on to it a little too late. His arms weren't as strong as his legs, so he wouldn't be able to use them the way he was earlier when getting to the top of this mountain. He staggered to his feet, and jumped a little to get a sense of how heavy the gravity was. When he landed after jumping maybe 2 feet off the ground, a crater several feet deep broke open beneath him. He could tell this was about to become hectic. No time to rest.~
"Ugh, fight you until I die..."
~From the expression on his face, he seemed to be a bit distressed, but only a moment later, a grin appeared on his face as his body trembled due to the immense gravity.~
"Then I guess we'll be fighting forever, heh."
~He started backing away from Mahk-x, trying to move his arms, but it was no good. It would take a good long while for him to get used to this.~

"Very honorable of you, however after this swift beating you will receive you will begin to question your optimism "

-*Said Kham, at the end of his sentence he appeared in front of Hide using his Meteor Fist taijutsu style to go at the speed of a level 12 earthquake which is a couple hundred thousand kilometers per second, naturally I shouldn't even have to state how overwhelmed Hide would be. Kham would throw a good global fist to Hide's exposed midsection possibly knocking him out until next week whatever possible defense he could/would probably muster there was no stopping this... it was the global fist- "The Fist of Titans", not self titled. The actual purpose of this was to make his right arm stronger and more productive than his left, the cells of his right arm will be constricted and lay dormant for a good amount of time so his left arm can make bombs a lot faster than his right, but the bombs that manifest out of the right will always be extremely more powerful. This was only a hypothesis though.*-

~Hide didn't even notice Mahk-x enter his personal space, that is until he saw the punch aiming for his gut. He couldn't use his arms, nor could he try to dash to the side due to the intense gravity and the speed of the attack. All he could muster up in such a short amount of time was a quick little hop off of the ground, so once the punch hit him, he would indeed feel the pain, coughing up blood on contact, but his body would travel with the fist, so he would be taking less damage than he would if he was planted on the ground, and judging by the gravity increase, he would've probably died. So, being sent flying toward the mountain now, he tried his best to maintain consciousness, just long enough to form some unknown single handsigns with his left hand. He was having a harder time moving his right in this gravity than he was with his left, which is why the handsigns came out so quickly.~
"Gugh..G-God damn..."
~He muttered, only it came out much less clear due to large imprint of a fist on his stomach.~

((ty for letting me hit you, most people wont lol you will reap the rewards shortly, I know what im doing lol))

--2 Week Time Skip--

-*During this two week time skip Hide's left arm would have all it's cells be at rest and his right arm would be using those blood cells to fuel its quickness there would have to be some serious training going on here, but Kham was enjoying himself since he too is a scientist at heart. Hide was out longer than he thought but Kham was sitting in meditation waiting for him to wake up beside his bloodied chest cavity blown out body. Kham healed him JUST ENOUGH to breathe, naturally the chakra suppressors were upped preventing Hide from doing anything else but respond to Kham... how sadistic he was*-

"You're one week late... did you enjoy your nap?"

~Hide faded into consciousness, and as he did Mahk-x words seemed a little, distorted. He was out of it long enough that his hearing had to readjust itself, so he barely got what was said. He looked at his stomach and noticed it was caved in quite badly, but he was still able to breathe. His body was replenished in terms of chakra thanks to the rest, and his mangled body was also relaxed and refurbished. The gravity however, was not yet adapted to.~
"What? One week? How long was I out of it?"
~His head banged into the ground as he lied there lifelessly. He was out for more than a week? From a single punch? He didn't want to admit it, but it looked like he had a ways to go. He didn't even give one of his little playful grins, or his signature "heh", and actually his facial expression was a rather annoyed one.~
"Eh, it doesn't matter. The rest was nice.. It's still hard to move my body, but.."
~He held up his hand, squinting as the sun beamed through his fingers. At first he wasn't able to move his hands in this gravity, but now he could, even though it was still a bit difficult. It was probably his body getting used to the strain he thought.~

"Two Weeks... the average person is usually knocked out for months at a time from a half powered global fist. I would have punched your top half from your bottom half should it have been full power."

-*Kham rose from his meditating position an removed the weight from Hide's arm with a mental thought, he waved his hand over hide regenerating him to a point where he could function but sitll recall the pain of the punch for future reference, Kham looked at Hide's arms the left being stronger than the right packing must potential power, and the left being a lot more active than the other but he wouldnt be able to tell from looking at them*-

"How do your arms feel?"

"Strange..."
~He threw some punches with a his left and right hand in succession, just to see how much quicker he became now that the gravity seemed to be lifted. The change wasn't that drastic from how he was before, but then again he didn't do much while he was here other than lay unconscious. \However, he did feel the speed behind his left arm and how it exceeded the speed of the right.~
"My right arm seems to be slower than my left. It must have been damaged badly in the fall after the punch two weeks ago."
~He said. He didn't realize that the left was faster, he was just more pessimistic now and thought his right arm was damaged. He didn't view the situation as optimistic as he did at first.~

"You're slightly correct, now make a bomb with your left and make one with your right. I wouldn't throw around that left arm too much though it would waste the affect that I'm trying to obtain here. You see your bombs pack a standard speed and power and is relative to how much chakra you put in you understand? Now, earlier you dealt with the suppressors when make you use less chakra to do these things giving you the ability to make larger exploding bombs with less chakra. My hypothesis is, should you make a bomb in your left hand it would GREATLY increase the power of the bombs melded into your right, granted they would mold slower in the left. Whether or not this is a hindrance is up to you. But you will be eventually able to use the same amount of chakra to make either bomb."

-*Kham said as if it was obvious*-

~Hideyoshi stopped and sat up, looking at both of his hands. He wouldn't have guessed that something like that was going on inside of him. He began to stand up, staggering a bit but in the end it was easier to stand up now than it was 2 weeks ago. Then, he indulged both hands into its respective pouch, grabbing a glob of clay and with his kekkei genkai he began to mold them in his hands. Not even a second later, the left hand had already finished molding a clay scorpion while the right continued to mold, honing more chakra into the clay. He tossed the scorpion in an arbitrary direction and watched as it crawled into a forest. He waited a few moments before he detonated it, or at least he was going to wait until his right arm finished molding the clay. About 10 seconds later, when the right arm finished molding, Hide would detonate the scorpion with a tiger a tiger one-handed handsign, causing a grand explosion in the distance. An explosion so grand that it was blowing his hair back and fluttering Mahk-x cloak in the wind all badass like.~
"So this is the left hands power, and speed. It traveled much farther than I expected..."
~He looked at the clay bird in his other hand. If what Mahk-x said was true, then this explosion was going to reduce a lot that was around it into nothingness. He tossed the dragonfly of clay with a powerful chuck into the forest, detonating it shortly after because he was in a rush to see the power it held. The explosion simply started as a powerful white flash that created dead silence, and the flash expanded rapidly, engulfing everything caught in the light in the explosion. It was so strong that Hide was getting slid back against the ground, leaving a long trail from his previous position to about 30 meters away from the explosion. Trees could be seen flying through the sky due to the explosion, and degenerating as they gain more height.~

-*Kham spoke to Hide as these explosins were occuring to make sure he didn't get carried away, just because it 'felt' like he wasn't using much chakra didn't mean that he wasn't. All we did was eliminate the strain it would require an entirely different aspect of training to increase chakra control*-

"Don't get carried away, because we have eliminated the strain it is easy to use a lot more chakra than necessary we still have a long way to go, and if you frivolously use chakra in the way that you are then you will run out faster than anticipated. And dont use your left arm that much or else it will eliminate the affect is has. It is possible to fake out your opponent from figuring out your new style by making several bombs with your right hand and transfering them to both of your hands, power the bombs up with your left as well. But that's for a later time."

~Hide paused for a bit, wondering how Mahk-x knew so much about his abilities. It made him wonder if he had met someone with abilities similar to his own. However, he would take it easy now, not wanting to put the two weeks he was unconscious to waste.~
"Hm, Alright then. Those are good tips and all, but how do you know so much about my abilities? You deduced this from your first encounter with me?"

"What did you think I was doing while you were unconscious? Sleeping? By delving into your unconscious mind I could pick apart most of your abilities, save for those that you've locked away along with your past. All I know is what you showed me."

-*Kham said looking out into the distance*-

"You're a curious person, you know curiosity killed the cat."

"Yeah, but I also know I'm not a cat."
~He said as he tried to look off in the distance and see what the hell his Kage was gazing at.~
"Even though I'm a curious person, I know that some things should be left alone, or at least I should try a different method of knowing it. Because you managed to come across such a large observatory, and not only that, but get it inside of your castle, you seem to also be a curious person, or maybe you were once upon a time."
~Hide pulled out some clay and just mindlessly began molding it into various shapes and structures.~

"Instead of wondering, you could always ask. I've let you into my home, one of the more private sectors of my home for that matter which, in reality is no larger than the size of the apartments down the street."

-*What Kham was looking at finally manifested itself, one of his diamond dragons landed in front of the two (they look like Stardust Dragon), manifested a softball sized sphere of diamond he tossed it to the dragon who ate it and purred like a cat*-

"Do you wish to know more about me? And how I came to the position I am in? Most who I choose to train take the power they receive and leave it at that. You're a special case, and surprisingly it doesn't offend me."

~He watched as the dragon showed, being tamed by a chunk of diamond like a house pet. It was, shiny, very shiny, but with a diet like diamonds its not surprising that it is.~
"All of those things would be good to know, and then some, but,"
~The clay in his hands was molded into a sculpture of the dragon before then, and it began to fly prematurely.~
"it's boring just to receive what one searches for. However, when you work for it, it makes you appreciate the answer that much more, no matter how minuscule it may be."
~Then a bead of sweat dropped down his face at the thought of this place being no bigger than an apartment in the complex. He had to be joking...right?~

"Well how about this..."

-*Kham began speaking in an unknown language that the dragon seemed to respond too, after a while of that, the dragon responded and flew away. Kham turned to Hide taking off his hood*-

"Should you complete your next training regiment to my liking, then your entitled to whatever knowledge you seek, whether it be about the rings or anything else for that matter?"

~Hide had forgotten about the rings for a moment, but the idea was extraordinarily perplexing. It made him wonder what this next training segment was going to be. He was out for two weeks, and even though he gained somethings from it, it was time to make up for lost time.~
"Sounds like a deal, heh!"
~He said with a grin on his face, which turned a bit deadpan. He placed his hand on his stomach, still feeling the impact of the global fist hitting him in the gut. It made him wonder if this next exercise involved fighting Mahk-x, again.~

"We're going to focus on chakra control, which is the most difficult thing to obtain for any ninja. Chakra is the foundation of any ninja, we can control what properties it takes but can we control what form it takes? How concentrated it becomes? It's texture? No... the ninja who has the best chakra control on this earth that I know is Aeon Revorse with chakra control you can do wonders. And with Chakra control, you may end up using a lot less chakra for your explosions and higher level bombs."

-*Kham walked down to the ground and crossed his arms then turned towards Hide*-

"Your goal, is to make a regular bomb whose explosion comes out in the shape of me, exact height shape and everything. You have 24 hours."

~A human shaped, explosion? The idea was completely new to Hide, and he would probably think that it was impossible if it wasn't for the fact that he had to do it. If he believed it was impossible, it would never get done.~
"An explosion shaped like you, huh? Alike in every way..."
~A clay doll version of Mahk-x was already made in his left hand, and he looked at it, wondering how to shape the chakra used in it. He closed his eyes, and began to sense the chakra flowing from him, into his bomb. On a moment's notice, his eyes snapped open, and he tossed the clay into the air and detonated it. As the explosion ensued, it came out in an oval shape, which at least is a cut above the standard circular explosions.~
"Alright, I think I get the gist of it. I'll have this done, count on it!"

"An oval? You think that's progress? You are aware that the explosion not only has to have the same weight as be, but also must be constant enough for me to measure its depth and density. Now, while you are busy preforming this task I will commence to kicking your ass again."

-*With the immediate end of his sentence Kham was going to take off the child's gloves, resorting to his higher level techniques he twitched his fingers and from out of the ground shot diamonds spires that aimed to skewer hide in ever yway possible, naturally an explosion of some sorts would occur and Hide would realize he's dealing with unbreakable diamonds.*-

"Tch.."
~He knew it. He knew he was going to be fighting Mahk-x, again. However, Hide started to adapt to the constant, standard overwhelming spires. As they jutted at him from the ground he clenched some clay in his hand and closed his eyes, weaving through the spires. Because Mahk-x used numerous spikes and spires so much against Hideyoshi, he knew just how to dodge them. As he dodged, the immense gravity was still in effect. A spires scraped his arm and stabbed his wrist, but instead of blood, bubbles of clay started to come out.~
"I can feel the vibrations of the spires in the ground. And since my body remembers the pain, my reaction to dodging it is greater."
~He focused on morphing the chakra in his clay as the bubbles continued to expand. They expanded and combined around Hideyoshi's body, forming a large, flexi-bubble around him. The spires poked and prodded but the bubble was flexible enough to keep from bursting.~
"C-3, lets go!"
~The bubbled poofed, turning into a larger spherical variant, only it was completely solid. It was no longer flexible, but it was sturdy enough to keep itself from being penetrated by the spires. It would take a more physically inclined attack to shatter this, or break it, and while on the inside, who knew what Hide was doing.~

-*Kham waved his hand towards Hide's makeshift shield, it was obvious that Hide thought high of himself in battle but the gap in power was so great that Kham didn't have to struggle to do anything and plus he was dealing with his element, The spires stabbed the clay shield, once they touched the clay turned from Hide's clay to Kham's silver diamonds. Kham's diamond eye allowed Kham to see what Hide was doing on the inside so whatever he was doing Kham was ready for and took the necessary precautions. Once the dome turned into the silver diamonds Kham clenched his fist and the silver diamond sphere would lift off of the ground and send spikes in towards Hide who was within, attempting to turn the diamonds back into clay would be ideal but it wasn't recommended. All the while, the silver dragons flew over head Kham summoned them with a mental thought*-

~Hide predicted something like this; his sphere turning into diamond, but he didn't really expect the spires to continue through. With a few earth handsigns, his hiding mole jutsu was complete, and he would exit the dome quick, fast and in a hurry, appearing several meters away. With him out of the sphere, it would proceed to exploding, thanks to the chakra that Hideyoshi planted into the sphere prior to it becoming diamond. In addition to this, this explosion would do two thing: First off, Hide needed to properly gauge how heavy Mahk-x was by seeing how much force it took to blow up the sphere of Mahk-x's diamond. The second thing was sort of extra, which was to send the diamond pieces from the sphere at Mahk-x, trying to see if his own diamonds could injure him. So, whether or not the sphere exploded, Hideyoshi was able to grasp how much force he had to use in his explosion to make it weigh as much as Mahk-x. This was all only a theory, of course.~
"Tch, those damn spires.."
~He threw some bits of clay at Mahk-x, hopefully using the first explosion in the sphere as some type of distraction, although it more than likely wouldn't distract him. Hide just needed to work on morphing explosions. The bits of clay exploded before reaching Mahk-x, and the explosions were shaped like stars. Spinning stars that resembled shuriken. A condensed explosion with the drilling force of a spinning shuriken should be powerful, but they still needed work in order to look more human like.~
