He wasn't doing this because he wanted to. He was duty-bound, so his hands were tied. He knew this would most likely end with his defeat if not death. Draiden tries to adjust as need be, only managing to move enough to dodge two of the four Balas. The two Bala hit against his armor, causing one of his pauldrons and his chausses to leave his body to self-repair. He would find his blade didn't make the intended slash into the male's hip and instead the man had used his race's variant of the Shunpo. He quickly rolls to the side out of the way, just as the kick had passed where his knee was. He knew the man would go right for a counter, and was experienced to know that he had to move. "Sword of Truth!" He says as he stands out of his roll. Wait for his opening and-
Apparently the man followed his roll. A firm punch sends Draiden forward, causing him to tumble further down the street. He felt two of his ribs crack from the force of the punch, putting him at a disadvantage in this battle. He stabs his blade into the ground to slow himself down, and uses it to pull himself up. He is careful with his breathing so as to not damage his own lungs with his now broken ribs. He raises his left hand, sending energy to it and causing it to glow brightly. He throws the energy forward in the air. "Blinding Grace!"
The energy activates, and with it a blinding light bursts forth to act as a flash bang grenade. He Flash Steps in not even a moment later and swings at the male's back, hoping to at least score one slash against the opponent before him.

Ability Name: Divine Armor
Ability Description: As if an act of God, Draiden’s armor was bound to his new spiritual body upon death, getting a unique black tint associated with his Shinigami powers. He can call this armor to materialize around his body at will at the start of a fight, and can get sent away to an armor stand of his choosing just as quickly. However, once sent away he needs to wait 2 posts before he can call the armor back again. The armor doesn’t have Zanpakutou durability, and once a piece of armor is broken that piece will return to the armor stand it was last at and begin self-repair, taking 3 posts each part(Consisting of the helmet, 2 gauntlets, breastplate, 2 boots, 2 pauldrons and chausses). Once repaired it can be returned immediately to Draiden’s body. Each part is capable of taking up to a Bala(Base/Shikai), Hadou 35(Bankai), Hadou 54(Toukai) in attack power before breaking. The chainmail underneath acts as normal chainmail and won’t offer much protection from supernatural attacks.
Ability Name: Sword of Truth
Ability Description: Upon using this ability Draiden’s sword will glow with a dull silver light. This ability is a temporary boost, enhancing the power of his strikes with power similar to that of a level 35 Hadou. It can be used unspoken (1/2 power). This ability lasts for 1 post. However, it can be repeatedly used.
Ability Name: Blinding Grace
Ability Description: This ability acts as a Flash Grenade. Draiden focuses a small bit of his Spirit Energy in the palm of his right hand and throws it at the ground, creating a bright flash of light that temporarily blinds opponents partially within 100 feet if they don’t properly cover their eyes or turn away in time, or happen to have eyes that can adjust to such a bright flash. Partial blindness lasts 1 post.
