Search for tags pt. 36-40

The next hall was different. The entire interior had changed. Here there were a bunch of genin lined up for the chunnin exams. However there was no one of real note he could see. Were they testing to see where he stood power wise? It was an odd thing. Still they all thought themselves capable of becoming chunnin. Yet most of them wouldn't make it that far. Today none of them would. He had precious little time left to take down this castle. With a hand sign he would boost himself to A rank speed. Appearing in front of the group before they could begin to coordinate or make hand seals. His hand would lift and his palm would glow orange as they turned to try and escape. But it was too late. The explosion that resulted from his hand would decimate them. Turning them to body parts or burnt corpses. From their corpses Tadara would see another tag raise into the air.  His honey colored eyes would scan for survivors a moment before collecting it and heading on his way.

The next level was chunnin. Or at least the pattern would suggest. A forest setting where a three man squad would be waiting for him. His anbu mask adorned his face as he flipped the kunai from the first room in his hand. Chunnin were a threat. He would cast a test genjutsu called false surroundings only to see one of them make a call out and all four kai out of it. Well that was unfortunate. So that one was the sensor. He would take a breath before expending ten chakra. Using a hundred bees to swarm and attack them. Filling them with venom and dropping their ability to fight back to abysmal levels. Once they were significantly debuffed he would engage in close combat while using bee's to attack their eyes. Vital strikes to the jugular or under the armpit. Tendons and arteries in the thighs. Immobilizing and bleeding them out. Truthfully chunnin were not a match for him. Still he would collect a tag from inside one of their vests and continue on.

Next up he would be dealing with some more dangerous individuals. So he looted the chunnin for weapons. Slipping on the flak jacket and moving to the next stage. An explosive tag had been on a body so he would attach it to his kunai. Choosing to stealth himself as he entered the next room. It was a candle lit seemingly empty hallway. His honeyed eyes would scan the room before noting a spot that looked different. A hiding in plain sight technique of all things. He would calmly activate the explosive tag and throw the kunai. Watching it blow up and take down the first target who managed to escape the explosion with minor injuries. His leg was burned though. However the second one came out of a better set stealth from above. Dropping down on Tadara. He would back step and enter into hand to hand combat. Taking a couple of blows nullified mostly by the flak jacket. Using the opportune opening to strike the eyes and then the throat. Blinding and suffocating. Boxing the ears next before the other had managed to join. Slowed by his injury Tadara kept the blind opponent between them. Activating chakra scalpels and whip technique. Using his extra reach to get around the blind man between them and cause massive internal bleeding in his enemy before doing the same to the one between them. Dropping them both and collecting a tag and a straight sword off them.

He knew this next one would be its own challenge. He would take a breath and make a dozen wax clones. A jounin was his opponent and waited with katana drawn in the center of a circle with torches around it. Their katana lit up in lightning. He knew he wouldn't be as fast as them. So he formed the hand seals for his honey bees While a dozen of his clones attacked and got wiped out. A hundred bees releasing from him as he spent more chakra. The bees would rush forward at A rank speed only to be cut down all at once. However this too had been a trap. The honey hardening as the opponent struggled to break free. Even just enough to form a hand seal. However having destroyed a hundred of them at once he was covered from head to foot. A quick step from Tadara and he would cut the mans hand off before he could form another seal. Then he would let the enemy suffocate under the honey. Watching him and waiting until the life left his eyes. Only then releasing the technique and cutting off his head. With that the last tag on the floor appeared and he would collect it before moving onto the next floor.
