Still it was not fatal though it does sting like hell and he would endure. Still he was curious about the barrier and that thick mist would certainly be a problem. Blood was visibly spilt upon the bridge behind and around the ninja and he had stayed low to minimize the amount of needles that could conceivably hurt him. He did however try and fling a simple kunai at Ten however the mark was off as the mist managed to obscure him. He knew this technique the Mist<br/><br/>Takeshi was satisfied with what had transpired with his teammates and he was glad that they were so very competent. A majority of the opposition had been decimated though he had to wonder why Uzumaki had not killed two of them. They were still breathing. Granted it could have been just because of a practical sense but she didn't strike him as the type. However the fact that she had gone quite serious had made him take notice.<br/><br/>In response to her question of a plan Takeshi had an idea however they were going to have to trust some of his judgements. Mentally he deliberated within himself trying to figure out certain advantages.<em>"Poison on my bandages… my blood running along the bridge. An impregnable mist keeping us blind… a barrier that as of yet I have no true idea on what it does. However it is familiar in some aspects. Either way I cannot ascertain it without experimentation."</em>Takeshi would soon speak up however with a quiet tone since he didn't wish for Ten to hear them.<strong>"Hidden Mist Justu with a combination of an unknown barrier, possibly an Ice Release and those blasted Water Needles. Wait a minute..."</strong>Takeshi had a small realization on how to escape the barrier and dupe Ten into dropping his guard.<br/><br/>Forming several hand sigils he readies the Water Clone Jutsu.<strong>"Listen to me carefully. Stay hidden and when he attacks get underneath the bridge. That should get you out of the barrier. I'll replicate you three with a cloning technique at that moment, so he believes you are still trapped. Ambush him."</strong>The plan was simplistic in nature. They cut a hole in the bridge, or use a technique to get under the bridge, he uses the Water Clone Technique to replicate the three of them and then they ambush him. He doubts that barrier is on both sides of the bridge. Then they can ambush him. He knew what this also meant for him as it meant he would be taking significant risks to make sure they stay alive long enough to best Ten. He doesn't bring this up as he knew at the very least Nanase would raise an objection to such an idea of him being a pawn.
