"Earth Escape! Underground Beheading Technique!"
A pair of hands suddenly stretched out from the mud, as the ninja ambushed underground extended their gorilla-like arms, reaching straight for the legs of the fleeing soldier.
However, Li Pan had anticipated this, tossing Seiryuuden Motonobu onto a tree with a flick of his wrist, then lunging forward in a frog-like leap, his palms striking together, fingers interlocking, just in time to grab the ninja's wrists and pull. Using this force, he executed an aerial flip, yanking the ninja hidden underground out.
"Sand and Earth Whirlwind!"
Although his ambush was discovered, the ninja remained unflustered. He used his gorilla arms to grab Li Pan's arms, twisting his waist and spinning, legs swinging. His feet moved with monkey-like agility, flinging sand into Li Pan's face while metallic blades shot from his prosthetically enhanced legs, sweeping towards Li Pan's neck!
