Me and Dark were discussing the fight as it was happening over Skype and I still have the transcripts, so yay. I'll just dump what I have here and then we can talk about it.
[7/27/14, 9:14:31 PM] Ashley: Hono is seriously after a judgment from you.
[7/27/14, 9:14:32 PM] Ashley: >>
[7/27/14, 9:14:55 PM] Aaron Beck: Oh.
[7/27/14, 9:14:56 PM] Aaron Beck: I'm gonna go ahead and post in Dark's dwelling for him to do the things he needs to do there before he leaves-
[7/27/14, 9:14:57 PM] Aaron Beck: Yeah.
[7/27/14, 9:14:58 PM] Ashley: You know what could also be fun?
[7/27/14, 9:15:08 PM] Aaron Beck: Sabu hasn't given his acquiescence yet, though.
This was a message from Hono sent to Dark
It's not fair to "imply" when the implication literally saves him. He never even mentioned the wind or even controlling the mass at Sage Mode speed. Plain and simple, word for word. I win.
No he voids and I am dead? This is stupid, now I look like an asshole cause I was wrong because you gave a veteran the benefit of the doubt about implications when he would have killed me with one.
Konoha killed Bocchiere on technicality just like I am trying to do. Please dude, I didn't ask him to attack me.. 
Another from Hono
I already had the area statically charged from posts before. >.> Forgot to add that I apologies. The fireflies were doing it and moved over him. If he is mist forming at all; wouldn't he be hit by the already statically charged air?
Aaron explaining the situation to me as well as a short transcript of what was being contested
[7/30/14, 2:57:19 AM] Aaron Beck: Okay, Sabumaru is known as a Hozuki. They're special people, made entirely of water. He's currently in Sage Mode. He also has a Byakugan active.
Skyler has a swarm of Fireflies some twenty feet above him; at a command, he sends the Raiton-empowered Fireflies down in consecutive spheres in an attempt to shock and stun Sabu. Sabu evades by way of turning into water vapour and moving rapidly through the air, an ability he can do seeing as he's actually made of water and in Sage Mode.
Sabu's argument is that he's in Sage Mode, which is one of the fastest states in the world; with the Byakugan, he can see the fireflies the instant they move, and evade. Skyler's argument is that Sabu's word choice didn't indicate movement -- only teleportation, which would be illegal -- and that since Lightning shocks Water he should be hit.
(4d) <暁> Tobu 仙人 Sabu evaporated! Only Kamui, with his crazy eyes, and Honō with his Sage Mode would be able to sense Sabu's movement. In Sage Mode, he could travel as air moisture alone, so he would seemingly simply vanish from the arms of the ugly white things, and +
(4d) <暁> Tobu 仙人 Sabu + they'd probably end up taking the full assault of those other attacks meant for our beautiful hero.
(...) and when Sabumaru, not only was he 20 meters away from the village, he was 80 meters in the air, floating, or more specifically, flying.
[7/30/14, 2:57:38 AM] Aaron Beck: Although now reading up apparently they're trying to void the fight at all without telling me? *Shrugs.*
More explaining.
[7/30/14, 2:58:56 AM] Aaron Beck: Precisely. Skyler's argument is based entirely on his reading it as teleportation, which it isn't.
[7/30/14, 2:59:28 AM] Aaron Beck: My judgment is that Sabu has both the ability and agility to evade, though if he were to be hit by the lightning attacks in the future they *would* be quite detrimental to him.
And, finally this is a screenshot sent to me from Hono

I'm still digging through things so I may have more.
