History: Takezo was born in the Cloud Village, Land of Lightning. His parents were ninjas as was his grandparents so he was enrolled in the academy. He excelled in the combat areas though he has slightly above average in the non-combat academics. He soon rose through ranks until he became of Jounin rank where he eventually became less interested in the village and more on himself. He figured that it would be pointless with working with other ninjas if he was of an ungodly power. So he honed his skills whenever he could and he tried to perfect his seals. Eventually, when he was 32, he decided to test his power by kill Daimyo of the Land of Lightning. The most powerful political leader in the land was guarded heavily but he tore through the castle and killed him but left the Daimyo's heir alive. He then waited within the castle for the forces to arrive. That would become his true test.

When the military forces finally came through it was more than he expected. He immediately fell into action as he went to one hundred percent to fight the army, using his speed to avoid being flanked. All seemed to being going fine until he was confronted by the Raikage and the Anbu. At that it became harder to dodge, taking three of his seals. When he was finally stabbed in the torso by an Anbu he used his last seal to flee to a cave on the far end of the continent that he had found during a mission. He healed there and regained strength. He was eventually found out by the the Akatsuki and he joined it.

Speed Level: Immense. After hearing many tales of the Fourth Hokage's speed, Takezo set out finding a way to match his legendary speed. He found the answer in a complex seal dependent on his Kekkei Genkai. The is placed on his body and allows him to temporarily turn his body into plasma and accelerate into near light speeds. While he's in this plasma state, he can't interact with other objects but is useful for traveling long distances and getting out of extreme danger.
