The Kazekage wasted no time at all, immediately using his 'Magnetic Style: Iron Sand Drizzle' to create a barrage of sharp iron needles, which rushed at Katsuro. The Senju was able to dodge the onslaught however, especially with his movement speed and perception enhanced by Thunderclap Impulse, and he returned an attack of his own, using Shunpo to get close to the Kazekage, and brought down his lightning enhanced blade on him, trying to sever an arm.

The Kazekage reacted just in time, and created a shield of iron sand, and managed to block the attack, and launched a counter with 'Magnetic Style: Iron Sand Gathering', to conjure a large spike that emerged from right underneath Katsuro, who managed to dodge using Shunpo again.

This isn't good, thought the Kazekage. He's faster and got better reaction time - in a close combat fight, he's got the advantage. But in that case…

Just before Katsuro was about to launch himself at the Kazekage, the latter shouted:

"Magnetic Style: Black Iron Wings!" 

The Kazekage's iron sand morphed into wings, and attached to his back. Katsuro and the surrounding Shinobi, Konoha and Suna alike, looked on in shock as the Kazekage rose above the battlefield, flapping his gigantic wings.

"How do you like my latest Jutsu, Stormbreaker? Come, come and fight me now!" 

It was true that he hadn't expected that Jutsu, but Katsuro was nothing if not adaptable. This might be a perfect opportunity to make use of his underestimation of me, Katsuro thought.

As if in panic, Katsuro fired off a Jutsu quickly:

"Fire Style: Great Dragonfire Jutsu!"

The flame dragon head flew from the Patriarch's mouth rapidly towards the Kazekage, targeting his wings. However, they had very little effect, with the Kazekage creating a ball of iron sand around him to shield himself from the attack - however, because of the sand containing iron, it was superheated by the Fire Jutsu, just as the Kazekage had hoped, and he sent the ball back down to Katsuro, using 'Magnetic Style: Iron Sand Weaponry' creating a range of weapons that targeted Katsuro. 

If even one of those hits, it's going to be intensely painful, even for someone like him - that'll slow him down. And even if it doesn't, he'll have to use that Lightning chakra even more, and his chakra reserve will be depleted even further.

As the Kazekage expected, Katsuro used the Thunderclap Impulse to evade the weapons and had to put even more chakra into the Jutsu - to the Kazekage, it seemed like the Senju was beginning to slow down.

Since the start of this fight, he's been using the Lightning Jutsu - that's an S Class Jutsu that requires a lot of chakra. Then, he used the Fire Jutsu - at the very least elevated to a high A rank, and now the Lightning Jutsu's being used even more. I know from our first altercation his limit is 3 high class Jutsu before he starts to slow down - with the chakra he had been using against the other Sand Shinobi all I need is for him to use one more S Class Jutsu, probably the Water Style one that he used last time because it can dry out some of my sand, and he'll be nearly out. As long as he can't get close or touch my wings, I've won!

As the Kazekage's confidence grew, he unleashed another attack. This time, he formed a whirlwind of iron sand, and propelled it towards Katsuro, who just about managed to dodge, again seemingly having to use Thunderclap Impulse. However, it seemed that the younger Shinobi still had a considerable amount of fight left in him. Not surprising, the Kazekage mused. The man who was able to defeat the 4 tails and force Onoki to retreat must be strong. It just so happens that I am stronger.

Like clockwork, Katsuro, with what seemed like great effort, unleashed 'Water Style: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave' - just as the Kazekage had predicted. The tsunami-like wave flew at the flying Suna Shinobi, and for a moment, it seemed like it would work. The sheer power and volume of the water dried out and washed away the entire shield that the Kazekage made, and despite the Kazekage flying away, it struck the giant, black wings. For a second, the Kazekage wavered in mid-air, just about to fall. However, at the last second, he managed to add from his reserve of iron sand in a container to his wings, while removing the wet iron sand from the wings at the same time with perfect control. It was an incredible feat, even by a Kage's standards - that level of chakra control, intelligence and decision making was truly rare, and the fact that the Kazekage had been forced into that position was a testament not only to his own strength, but also to the strength of his opponent.

Speaking of his opponent, it seemed the Kazekage's strategy was perfect. Katsuro was still on the battlefield, but on one knee, and panting, exhausted. The Kazekage smiled ruthlessly.

"You fought well, Senju Katsuro. In just over a year, you've managed to capture 1 -no, 2 Jinchurikis and Tailed Beasts, fight the Tsuschikage to a standstill, and lead an entire clan by yourself, earning yourself the title of Stormbreaker. Some even compared you to the Hokages before you, including the God of Shinobi himself. But despite your impressive feats, it appears that even someone like you can fall."

As Leaf Shinobi looked on in helpless despair, and Sand Shinobi cheered, Katsuro struggled to his feet once more, much to the annoyance of the Kazekage. Does this child not understand his situation?

"You still wish to fight?" he said, snarling, as he prepared his greatest Jutsu to date, the one that no one had ever managed to escape: 'Magnetic Style: Iron Sand Iron Maiden!'

"Know your limits, boy!"

The iron sand closed around the Senju Patriarch, forming a coffin shape around him. The Kazekage squeezed his fist, and the iron sand compressed into a ball, crushing everything inside it, and the leader of Suna breathed out a sigh of relief. 

It's over.

But, just as he was about to relax, he heard the sound of something being cut, and before he could react, it too was late: those great iron wings, the secret to his victory, had been cut clean off, and they weren't reattaching. As the Kazekage plummeted to the ground, he realised something.

That chakra - I know that chakra! But - but how? 

Sure enough, as the Kazekage turned around to face his attacker, he was met by the sight of the Senju Patriarch, and the man they called the Stormbreaker - Senju Katsuro. The Kazekage fell for my plan exactly as I predicted - downplaying my strength was worth it. 

"How? I calculated the plan! You're completely past your chakra limits!"

Katsuro merely smirked, as the lightning around his body and katana only grew stronger, completely unfazed by the battle up until now.

"That's just the thing, Kazekage. I have no limits."
