While Nokino continued to advance toward Yukio after making her two jutsu, she realized that her student was backpedaling at a speed of 45, effectively dodging the smoke cloud she was spewing that spanned at a speed of 40, as he moved faster than the cloud traveled, trailing mostly behind Nokino and generating around her.
As her other one handed Jutsu was almost finished, she decided to slow down in reaction of Yukio's backpedaling, moving only toward him at the same speed as her smoke jutsu did (40), maintaining the 3m radius around her, but also keeping the distance up close with Yukio, maintaining a distance of 5m between them, the speed difference being too small to create a large distance gap, only continuing to spew smoke in front of her to create a 3m radius field, essentially covering what she was doing, as Yukio could only see a large cloud of smoke 6m wide (3m radius) covering all of Nokino's new position.
While in this smoke, her second Jutsu would happen, summoning a shadow clone of herself into the smoke cloud right in front of her(15cm) to be closer to Yukio as planned, keeping its presence hidden to Yukio. The Shadow clone would then proceed as mentionned, doing the ramsign, summoning 4 smoke clones inside the cloud too, all hidden by the 6m wide smoke cloud(3m radius) essentially creating a large smokescreen hidding the real Nokino, a shadow clone and 4 others clones.
While this happened, Yukio's handseals were done too, and his temporary paralysis would reach the cloud, invisible to the eyes of Nokino. By sheer luck, the paralysis would first reach the shadow clone of Nokino, making it totally paralyzed and unnable to move for 1 post.
Seeing this inside the smoke cloud, Nokino is suprised at how close the jutsu was of catching her, and she smiled, feeling proud of her student. But now it was time to show him that opponents can sometimes play mind games. As the paralysis jutsu caught the clone, Nokino would make it struggle and talk with her voice saying the following:
''AGH! Good one there Yukio, you caught me, didn't see it comming! You're quite impressive indeed!''
Meanwhile, in her left hand would start to generate a ball of pure chakra energy, forming itself at a speed of 70. The 4 smoke clones beside her would have the same effect generate in their hand simulating as if 5 Nokinos were generating Rasengan in their respective left hands.
In a synchronized motion the cloud of smoke would end, dissipating, and at the same moment, all 4 of the clone as well as the real Nokino would emerge from it, suprising Yukio who didnt see the interior of the cloud before now with 5 Nokino runing toward him at a speed of 100 with each a rasengan into their left hand. In the place of the cloud, the smoke would dissipate to reveal the shadow clone of Nokino completely paralysed, acting as the real one in a seemless way, maintaining the illusion that she was caught and that her shadow clone were doing the business along the smoke clones.
If the wooden smothering technique was going toward the shadow clone, it would be immediately hit by it, being paralyzed. If instead it would aim for a smoke clone, it would hit it, making one of the clone disapear in a smoke cloud, not changing the outcome of the later move. If the move was aimed at the real Nokino, she would dodge at a speed of 130, effectively evading it to the right side in a diagonnal movement, sidesteping it, but then getting back on target with the rest of the smoke clones. As the distance between them was still only 5m, the distance was quickly covered at the speed of 100 of the 5 Nokinos bolting toward Yukio. If they made contact, the 4 smoke clones combined their rasengan with the one of Nokino, collaborating to make the rasengan impact stronger. As the rasengan ball hit Yukio's Body, it damaged him for a total of 120(70 power+50 for collaboration), and launched from Nokino's left hand, carrying Yukio on it (as he has lower strength than the power of the technique) 10m farther down the field, sending him crashing and to colide with the ground, dealing him an additionnal 50 damage from the moderate surface that is dirt, exploding in a 2m radius of chakra energy, sending dirt everywhere.
as the young senju boy would get up 10m away from his Sensei, the Iburi girl would simply talk, in echo with all the clones, still maintaining the seemless illusion so that Yukio wouldnt figure who was the real one.
''Great move there with the twice binding combo jutsu! This is actually quite impressive kiddo! First lesson tho, opponents can say sh*t and play mind games. Try and figure it out to have the edge, or even better, play mind games of your own!'' Would say all the Nokino's in unisson.
Standing at 10m from him, along with the either 4 or 3 remaining smoke clone( depending on the scenario before), and her shadow clone standing 15m from yukio and 5m from Nokino and her smoke clone, Nokino and all of her versions stood ready to respond to any new move from Yukio giving him back the chance to counter attack and get back into control, giving him the first move again, as if it was now a second round.
