It hadn't been too long after his meeting with the King of Saiyans along with meeting with Akassa again, he had run into another of the Hattori in the palace. Ninjin, the Saiyan Prince and the one that had given him one of his most brutal fights in the Galactic Tournament which the Half-Saiyan had barely won. It had peaked his curiosity to see how he would fair against Ninjin now that he had not only grown in power, but expanded his own arsenal as well. Plus what better way to make sure they both benefited from the experience than to train in his own gravity chamber? From what he could tell of the power that the prince was giving off they were about even and Conri was wearing his heavy training weights, which he imagined his friend was as well. It seemed so strange to use that term in regards to the prince especially when they had not started off on the best footing with each other. Both had been so arrogant back then that they had clashed their personalities before even starting the fight, and it was during that battle that Conri had sobered up to quite a few things. Getting punched in the face really hard tends to help with that, and now he would be facing off against him after having won the championship title. They both had grown, so would the outcome be different than it was before?
"Have you ever trained with gravity before?" he asked, figuring it would be better to start small if he hadn't, no need to go and overdo it just in a training like this. Gravity was a pain in the ass as it was, add the weights to it and going over what your used to can have dangerous repercussions. He needed to clear his mind again, so fighting against someone like Ninjin in even a training situation would allow him to focus his mind on just a single thing which would be their battle. Distractions would just get him hurt, if that happened he would just use the pain as a reminder to shut out everything else that wasn't related.
Turning the crank up to five times the normal gravity, he would let that sit for now, if Ninjin had trained in gravity before than he could speak up about turning it higher. Conri himself could feel the familiar pull of gravity as the machine kicked to life, it was something of a relief to not have it set to the next highest setting. This allowed his body to feel lighter than it normally did while training, something that he wasn't quite used to just yet. He looked over to see how the Prince was handling the gravity, and would let him adjust to the feeling of the added pressure before starting their little rematch. It wouldn't be any fun to take advantage of someone while they weren't used to the increased weight and he wanted to make the most of this training.
A small smirk crossed his lips at the prospect of having another battle with Ninjin, it seemed that the Saiyan Prince had a knack for stirring that slumbering urge for battle. The thrill of entering combat with an opponent and being unsure of what the outcome was going to be, but finding that part of it the most fun at the same time. The stronger the opponent the more exciting the idea of fighting them, win or lose it would be fun.

Ninjin was, oddly enough, studying when he ran into his friend Conri Lane. His head was buried in a book and he nearly didn’t see his friend. After his many events on Omega the prince had delved into his study of the Universal Church of One, reading any book or tome that he could get his hands on. To defeat thine enemy you must know thine enemy and it was safe to say that at this point Ninjin knew them very well. The man that the prince affectionately referred to as Mouse had then invited Ninjin to train with him in his gravity chamber. The thought had often intrigued the prince, he had just never had access to any facility and so he enthusiastically accepted. That and it would be a good chance to test himself once more against the champion of the universe.
Ninjin had grown much since the last time he had seen the blue-haired Saiyan. He wasn’t arrogant any more, he was confident. Gone was the harshness in his voice, gone was the rudeness towards others. When you nearly die enough times, your life gets put into perspective, and the prince had nearly died many times on Omega. Enough for a life-time of change. Conri too seemed to be different. Maturation could come quickly in Saiyans it appeared. When they stepped inside the chamber Ninjin placed his book to the side and secured the straps of his armor. His heavy weights were hidden within the plates and it seemed like his friend too was wearing a set.
“I never have” The prince replied honestly to his friend’s question. “I’ve always been curious though. It seems like it would change things a lot.” There was no trepidation in his voice, but his curiosity came through loud and clear. A tad bit of eagerness was mixed in as well. It would make him stronger no doubt.
As Conri cranked up the gravity Ninjin fell to a knee, struggling against the weight. It was more intense than the prince would have thought. His body was just barely getting used to the heavy weights after wearing them all the time, now add in gravity that was five times what he was used to and it was nearly more than the prince could take. With knees shaking like machine-gun fire the prince stood.
“Heavier than I thought it would feel like.” The prince said honestly, his voice trembling slightly due to the added weight. It would be a challenge to fight under the circumstances, but he was no quitter. That and he and his blue-haired friend seemed to be at roughly even power, which was slightly calming. Though they had been at even power when they had fought in the tournament as well.
The prince caught his friends smirk and returned one of his own. Who better to test yourself against then the universal champion?
“Think you can win against me when ring-outs don’t count?” The crown-prince teased his friend, though there was no malice within his words, just a friendly banter to get things started. Shakily the prince fell into his fighting stance, each arm protecting a side of his head similar to a boxers style.

The pull of the gravity was felt the fullest on his own weighted gear, the jacket and armoring that he wore on his arms and legs clinging to his body as if trying to drag it down. Taking a few minutes he made sure that his body had adjusted to the change in gravity around him, shifting himself from time to time to remember the feeling. He'd been preparing for a rematch against Ninjin just for the sake of fighting against him again, the Saiyan Prince brought out the side of him that allowed him to improve his abilities during the course of battle. That was both what he wanted and what he needed, to be pushed to the point where he would improve himself constantly through the course of battle. With their power levels being so close, he knew that it would be a good fight as well, they could both let loose without worrying and fight to their heart's content.
His eyes glanced towards the book as it was put to the side and raised an eyebrow slightly, he wondered what the full-blooded Saiyan had been reading all this time. It seemed that whatever it was it had his attention enough that he had brought with them to the gravity chamber, he would have to ask about it later. That or maybe he would just ask about it while they fought, but only if he was given the opportunity to do so without punching each other in the face. Yeah, he would save it for after, there was likely to be a lot of face punching, it just seemed like one of those things.
"Yeah, it catches you off-guard at first, I hadn't been expecting the large difference either when I first used it," it seemed like ages ago that he had first trained with the gravity chamber as well. He wondered what had happened to that Icejin, he had not seen it since their training session and was curious to see if it still held the same arrogance. Turning his eyes forward once more he watched the Prince struggle with the effects of gravity, he hadn't been much different at that time, he could barely move. His smirk widened as Ninjin asked if Conri could defeat him without a ring out and the Half-Saiyan chuckled lightly.
"I suppose we'll be finding that out now, I have a whole new bag of tricks," he set into his own stance now, one that was more relaxed than his opponent's. At least, that was how it appeared, for anyone that would attack they would find it wasn't such a lackadaisical position. It seemed that the Prince was ready, so he would be the one to start things off, as he crouched down and pushed off towards his opponent. Starting things off he unleashed a quick flurry of punches and kicks towards Ninjin, aiming generally for the liver and solar plexus with a few of the punches. It wasn't anything fancy, he just wanted to start off with some basic things to get the fight going and see who would come out on top.

"You're not the only one with new tricks Mouse."
The prince noticed his friend’s eyes darting towards his book and chuckled. He didn’t know that Conri was such an avid fan of books, or learning for all that matter. Not to say that his friend wasn’t smart, he was, he just didn’t seem like the type to sit down and read a book when he could instead train. Though then again, neither was the prince. Before he could begin to explain however, his friend rushed forwards and launched a flurry of blows at him.
Punches and kicks found their way home to the liver and solar plexus of the prince. He was too unused to the gravity and too slowed by the weights to put up a very effective block, though after being hammered what felt like a few dozen times he finally got a solid block in. His right arm came down to block a kick and his left leg swept under the blue-haired Saiyans right. He would push and attempt to take his friend down to stop the onslaught.
If Conri fell the prince would jump backwards and catch his breath. He was not used to being so outclassed so early on in a fight. It was not that the blue haired one was stronger than him, if he was it was negligible; it was the damn gravity and weights. Conri had no doubt trained in this type of environment before his body clearly showing no signs of hindrance. It was not so easy for the prince however.
After a moment, when he had caught his breath Ninjin would point to the book.
“Just doing some light reading. I don’t suppose you’ve ever heard of the Universal Church of One? It’s this big organization that seems hell-bent on killing me whatever it takes. They’ve killed a few people close to me and all-in-all try to ruin my life on a daily basis. In fact I wouldn’t be surprised if they managed to somehow get into this chamber and try to fight us. They are experts at infiltration and showing up whenever I least want them to.” He would say most of it as a laugh, but if the blue-haired Saiyan paid close enough attention he could tell from the prince’s eyes that he was being serious, and that there-within blazed a hatred for the church. They had taken much from the prince.
If Conri managed to avoid being thrown over, the prince would find another way to disengage and talk about the book all the same.

"That's good, I hope to see what you can do soon."
When he started his assault, he had assumed that Ninjin had enough time to adjust to the gravity conditions. However, his assumption had proved wrong when the majority of his strikes had hit home without much interference from the Saiyan Prince. It was only towards the end of it that Ninjin had managed to block one of his kicks and attempted to throw him off balance with a sweep of his feet. It had initially worked as well, Conri had been pushed backwards by it, but had used his hands to catch himself while pushing to land on his feet once more. A bit more tricky of a feat thanks to the increased gravity, but it still managed to work. That was when Conri decided to sit down and relax instead, giving Ninjin more time to get used to the gravity than he was now.
"Let me know when you are adjusted to the gravity," wanting to make sure they would have a more evened fight than with him being able to push Ninjin like that. There was no sense of accomplishment if Ninjin was disadvantaged by his lack of experience with gravity chambers that it hindered his fighting ability. When the Saiyan Prince begins to speak about doing a little light reading, Conri nods in understanding up until the point where he mentions the Universal Church. His fists clenched reflexively upon hearing that name, he knew it all too well considering that they took everything away from him.
"Yeah, I've heard of them before and trust me, they go after everyone. Once I find them though, I'm going to take them apart from the ground up so that the can never reform," his tone was laced with hatred. There was no way that he could conceal the raw anger and hatred that he felt for those people, if it was the last thing that he did he would see them crumbling into dust. His fists clenched tighter and tighter until he could feel the warmth of his blood running down his fingers to drip to the floor. What they took from him was something that he could not get back, and so he would take everything from them in return.
That was another reason that he trained so much, he wanted to make sure he had the power to wipe them from the face of the universe and leave no trace behind. History would forget the Universal Church of One when he was finished with it.

“Thank you I will. I was not expecting such a difference. It makes you feel like your swimming through… what is that dessert that Earthlings like? Jell-oh? That.” The prince would hop to the floor and begin doing push-ups to try and get his muscles to acclimate to the increased gravity. After that he would hop up and begin doing squats into leaps.
What the prince hadn’t been expecting, perhaps even more than the change that gravity would have upon him, was Conri’s reaction to his mention of the Universal Church of One. His blue-haired friends hands clenched in anger and his pupils dilated. It was clear that he was very upset. Throughout his life Ninjin had been targeted by the Universal Church of One. They sent bishop after bishop and android after android to try and kill him. They seemed to want to target him more so than the royal family, but he supposed he had been being naïve if he was their only target.
Their edict was to eradicate all saiyans, all half-races, any person or being with even the slightest hint of the DnA of another species. Conri was a Half-Saiyan. Perhaps there was something in his past… Conri stated that his goal was the eradication of the church. It seemed the two had more in common than one would think. As they talked Ninjin would begin to do lunges around the room. It would appear odd perhaps to someone on the outside looking in, but it was doing leaps and bounds to get him acclimated to the gravity.
“A few years ago they took from me one of the only friends I ever had as a child. Since I was born they’ve taken every chance they could get to try and get a shot in at me. I never assumed I was the only one, but to hear they’ve gone after you as well… I’m sorry Conri. They are a ruthless people. After the tournament I fought many of their people on Omega, I believed I had eradicated their presence there, but as I said they are masters of infiltration. It’s hard to be on the lookout when the members of their religion can be from any alien race…” Ninjin finished his thought by trailing off. He could tell that Conri was beyond angry by the trickle of blood running down his palm.
“I didn’t know my words would upset you that much, I’m sorry Conri.”

"Don't worry, I struggled with the gravity upon first learning of it as well. It takes you by surprise with just how drastic the change is," he chuckled. Understanding just what the younger Saiyan was going through in the chamber, and letting his body adapt so that it could remember the feeling of the increased gravity for later uses. Although, his first use of it was fighting against someone that seemed to have a bit more of a general want to hurt him as opposed to training, but they had both been in the same position. However, for Conri his pride as a Saiyan wouldn't let him fight such a strong opponent at such a severe handicap as having an easier time of moving.
With his mind focused on taking apart the church that he had forgotten that he was talking with Ninjin about them, instead having focused on something that wasn't relevant for the moment. Closing his eyes he tried to take a few deep breaths, pushing away his anger and hatred so that he can focus on his training with Ninjin better. It wasn't like he was pissed at Ninjin either, so going to attack while angry wasn't on his agenda, his friend had done nothing to deserve that.
When Ninjin began to speak once more and the paused to apologize, Conri shook his head some before taking a few seconds to fully collect himself. Then he tried to decide what to do to try and explain things, it wasn't that he didn't trust Ninjin, but this tended to be something he didn't tell pretty much anyone. So it was a choice of telling him the exact reason or just avoiding the issue entirely, but either way he didn't really like the options. There was just less in general for him to lose for telling, but the fact that he would have to say it out loud bothered him quite a bit.
"No, it's fine. It's not you that's gotten me angered, it's the Church itself, they took everything from me and so I plan to do the same to them. That's all, sorry about that," he rubbed the back of his head and laughed a bit to try to lighten the mood since he brought it down.
"Have you found out anything about them that could be useful or interesting?" he figured if he could get some information himself, it could work to his advantage.

The church seemed to illicit that reaction out of anyone who wasn’t a member. Ninjin went so far as to assume that if one wasn’t involved in the church, ti was safe to assume they were enemies of the church. The book he was reading mentioned that the church hated mixed races and Saiyans especially, but also listed a vast number of species that had gone to war with the church for having beliefs that conflicted. It was the most militaristic religion that existed. It had even wiped species off the face of the universe.
The pull of the gravity seemed to be lessened by the work-out routine the prince had just done. His body was strong and fit and highly adaptable. Perhaps now he could block more than one of the universal champion’s attacks.
“Interesting definitely, these guys are fanatical freaks. Useful, not likely. It says they use androids a lot, but having been attacked by a bunch of those I had inferred that already. Their energies aren’t ki based, which makes it more difficult to predict what kind of attacks or defenses they’re going to have. Other than that not much useful information, but it makes for an interesting read nonetheless. I’ll let you borrow if you want, maybe you’ll be able to pick something out of it that I wasn’t.” With that the prince stood and fell more easily into his combat stance. The pull of the gravity was still there, but it felt more like a tug than an all-out drag.
“Whenever you’re ready. I think perhaps I can block more than a few blows this time.” The prince said cheerfully, letting his friend once again make the first move.

While he was seated and waiting for Ninjin to get used to the pull of the gravity, he took a few deep breaths to settle his mind once more. Being enraged would probably not help him in a spar against Ninjin, he had to be able to think each of his moves through if he wanted to match up to the Saiyan Prince. Plus it might make him exert more energy than what was necessary for him, which would just deplete his stamina much faster. If Ninjin was like him, they would both want a pretty long spar so that they could both benefit from it greatly, and enjoy themselves throughout. If it ended too early, well there would be no fun in that, so he had to calm himself and keep his wits about him. It seemed that of the Hattoris that he met, they were also the ones that could give him the greatest thrill and greatest workout in the same sparring session.
When Ninjin began speaking about the book, Conri nodded as he listened, so there were androids that were essentially their foot soldiers while their own members made up the higher echelons of the organization. The fact that they used an energy source that wasn't Ki was a bit interesting as well, if it wasn't Ki than what else could it be that they used? Maybe he would need to read the book, but also see if he might be able to find information through other possible sources, but for now he would just use what he could get his hands on right now.
"Yeah, if you're done with it, I wouldn't mind reading through it myself. If even just to learn a bit more about them as a whole, might make crushing them all the more fun," he said with a smirk. Controlling his breathing really helped with reducing that anger from a few moments ago, he'd have to be more careful about letting it get the better of him. Once the Church was gone, he figured the anger would be as well, so it was doubly important in his mind that they be destroyed as quickly as possible.
"Alright, if you're sure you're ready this time," he grinned at his friend, who seemed to be a bit more well-adjusted to the gravity this time around. That was good, he didn't want there to be an true disadvantage between them when they sparred. Crouching lower to the ground this time, he rushes forward and this time swinging his entire body around aims a kick for Ninjin's ribs, this was more or less just going to be a bit of a test to see if the Saiyan Prince was adjusted to the gravity.

Conri lowered his center of gravity and lurched forwards, much better and more practiced at this whole gravity thing than Ninjin was. That much was evidenced by his ease when they had first entered the chamber, and highlighted by his quickness and sureness of foot. The champion Ninjin so fondly refered to as Mouse swung his whole body in an arc, and Ninjin could see what was coming next.
With more force than usual the prince brought his arms up to block. He had overcompensated for the gravity and managed to uppercut himself in the mouth with both of his fists as Conri's kick landed hard against his ribs. Ninjin stumbled backwards and spat a little blood from his mouth. It was nothing internal, he had just managed to bite down hard on his lip during the unexpected uppercut.
This gravity thing... he wasn't sure how he liked it. Sure he could see the benefit to it, but it was making the training he'd done his entire life seem easy. There weren't many a time when he could say his body didn't do exactly what he told it to in a combat situation. And now here he was just having punched himself in the face, something he hadn't done in training since he was an over-eager child.
He spat the rest of the blood from his mouth and did not let it slow him. The kick had made its mark hard and the prince's ribs were on fire, but that would not slow him either. Say one thing about Ninjin Hattori, say he's one of the toughest Saiyans that ever lived. Kicks and punches it would take a lot of to slow him down.
His own right hand came up and he aimed a hard blow towards Conri's cheek, the other hand was coming up towards the champion's midsection. If they too were over-calibrated the mores the better, it would be added power. That was... unless the champion blocked.

It seemed that Ninjin still wasn't quite used to the increased gravity of the room as he was suddenly uppercutting himself in the face as Conri's kick connected. That or Ninjin had just gone completely crazy for some reason and decided that punching himself was the right way to handle the situation. He would assume the former though, given that Ninjin didn't really seem the type to suddenly go insane like that. Plus it seemed like he was more annoyed by the fact that he just hit himself as well, but Conri couldn't take it easy too long on the Prince, that would be more of an insult than anything else that he could do. Instead, he would try to give him some advice that would hopefully work and not cause Ninjin to think that the Half-Saiyan was mocking him or something.
"Instead of trying to force it, you should let your body adapt to it naturally, let it flow with the gravity like water. Trust me, forcing it just eats your stamina a lot faster," he chuckled. He'd found that out with his first encounter with a gravity machine, it had been so tiring trying to move his body like he could without it. In fact, he had to return to Earth once this mission was over and he would need to do something that his pride continued to yell against. He would need to start over and relearn the basics of his style, but his style was that of his father's as well. It was something that he had learned when he was young and he needed a refresher on it, as he felt himself drifting from the proper teachings.
It was time for the Prince's counter attack as well and it seemed that he was forcing himself to compensate for the gravity once more, which meant that he might overdo it again. The punch to the midsection was the one he needed to be cautious of, crossing his arms in front of his torso he blocked the hit, but in doing so, he took the hit to his cheek directly causing him to stumble back for a moment. He also needed to shake his head, to try and refocus his mind from that hit, if he was overcompensating then Conri himself would have to step up his game a bit to match that power.
Rushing forward once more, he would do something that would probably not be as expected from the Half-Saiyan, as he flipped forward bringing his left leg down first as an axe kick using the gravity to add even more power behind it. Then he immediately followed with his left leg to increase the difficulty of blocking the attack, but he knew Ninjin was strong and that he could be full of surprises. He had ideas stirring in his mind about how to best deal with the situation.

The advice that Conri gave was solid, and it left the prince mentally kicking himself. It was not often that Ninjin let a situation get the better of him, but he was truly out of his element with this gravity thing. If he needed to get slugged a few more times in order to get the better of the gravity, then so be it. Ninjin could take a hit.
His punch landed solidly on Conri's face, and for a moment the prince worried he may have overdone it. But Conri shook his head and shook off the blow and came back at him with intensity to match. The half-Saiyan flipped in the air at the end of his run, something that the prince had not been expecting. The agility that Conri showed despite the gravity was impressive. Somehow Ninjin would get to that level as well. Conri was roughly his own power, so if his blue-haired friend could do it, well the prince could do it too.
Both of Ninjin's arms came up to block the attack, but what Conri's legs crashed through wouldn't be the prince's guard, it would be the after-image that Ninjin had left. Granted he hadn't managed to do much other than dive to the side due to the reduced gravity, the prince still managed to whip around before crashing to the ground and launch a ki blast at the champion. It was by no means a strong blast, but Ninjin had found himself in an unusual circumstance with the gravity, and he knew he would have to adapt to spar Conri on his level.

It seemed that Ninjin was taking his words to heart, that was good, if he was going to be training in gravity he would have to learn that aspect of it. He wanted to be able to have a rematch with the Saiyan Prince when they were both adjusted to the gravity and could both handle the same level. That would definitely be a spar that he could get into, for now he figured it was better to get his friend adjusted to the change in training that gravity could provide.
When his legs came down on top of Ninjin, he learned that it was in fact nothing more than an afterimage created by the Prince, a smirk coming to Conri's features. Despite the disadvantage his opponent wasn't going to go down easily, that was good, granted he expected as much from Ninjin as well. When the Ki Blast came at him, he was prepared for it when it was clear there was an afterimage, utilizing the floor of the chamber with his telekinesis he used it as a shield to block the attack.
"Not bad, Ninjin. I'm looking forward to what else you can do," he smirked, this is the kind of fight that he was looking forward to, the Hattori always seemed able to push his abilities. He would have to see about finding Frigid once more and having a spar with him as well, since the final round of the tournament ended he wanted a rematch with his Icejin friend. One where they didn't blast each other unconscious and didn't have a definitive winner. That would need to wait though, the current opponent before him was one that seemed to get his blood burning, that old Saiyan desire to fight a strong opponent.
He would save the one new technique for later, but there was one that could work well right now, drawing energy to his fingers he made a slashing motion with them and launched his Radiant Edge technique. It would have been better if he had been able to use Fragarach with it, but that would have made it deadlier as well, this was just a training so there was no need for that.

Conri was as quick as the prince remembered. Using the telekinesis that Ninjin had seen from him in the tournament he brought up a tile from the floor to use as a shield. The prince grinned. It was a smart tactic, and just as quick thinking as his use of zanzoken had been. Before, when they had been fighting, they were not friends, and they were certainly not friendly. Egos had clashed before, and it had gotten in the way of technique. Temperaments tend to do that. This was not the case anymore, as they were friends now. Still, Ninjin realized with a start that he didn’t know his friend very well.
Sure he knew he was the champion, and sure he knew his personality, but he was missing all those details that friends know about each other. He wasn’t expecting to get Conri’s life story out of him, but the spar may be a good time to get to know each other all the better.
A thin line of ki lashed out from Conri’s hands and Ninjin’s eyes grew wide. Ninjin braced himself and crossed his arms out in front of him, but the crescent of ki still bit into his forearms before the energy faded. Two small but deep cuts began to slowly drip blood down the prince’s arms.
“I wish to learn more about you Conri.” He said as he lowered his forearms and the blood dripped down slowly. It was probably an odd thing to say after getting hit with such an attack and not immediately attacking after. Still, if the two were really going to call themselves friends they should get to know one another.
After enough blood had dripped down into his hands Ninjin would throw tiny needle like spears of blood at his opponent. It would no doubt surprise Conri, Ninjin now being able to use his blood as weapons. The cloud of blood needles being thrown at conri was by no means lethal, and if it hit the worst that would happen would be being pricked with hundreds of needles. Annoying yes, but not fight-ending.

They were both doing much better this time around in their face off than they had in the tournament, that had been a bit of a mess between the two. Still, they both were much more aware of things in this spar then they were in that fight, and were countering each others attacks with much more technique and skill. He had to admit this was a much more fulfilling battle now that they were both aware of their surroundings and not letting the hectic nature of a tournament.
The energy blade dug into Ninjin'a arms he mentioned wanting to know more about Conri, an odd thing to say after being attacked no doubt, but it made sense as well. They had come to respect each other after their bout, and become friends, but they didn't really know a whole lot about each other. Well, except for the fact that they had both been wronged by the Universal Church of One, but they were technically the enemy of all Saiyans anyways.
"The feeling is mutual, what would you like to learn about me?" he figured it was as good as any place to start with wondering what Ninjin wanted to know. If they were going to learn about each other they would need to start somewhere, and this was as good a place as any. Although his attention soon turned to the cloud of blood that was suddenly launching a storm of needles at him, this was a really interesting new trick that the Prince had gotten his hands on. Turning his body sideways, he narrowed the area that the needles could hit and placed his arms in a defensive manner to prevent any possible severe damage.
Although the seemed to not pack much power, but they seemed to be more as a distraction. Which had worked as the needles prevented him from following up on his attack against Ninjin, but he had a way of doing things in a sneaky manner as well. Forming three strands of his spider silk, he used his telekinesis to cause them to slither across the ground, in a means to keep themselves from being easily discovered. When they reached Ninjin, they would lash out to wrap around his leg, and Conri would pull on them to trip the Saiyan Prince. This battle was starting to get interesting with each of them starting to show case their new techniques, he wondered how many more surprises Ninjin had up his sleeve.
