Free for All! The Struggle for Raikage (MATURE content on page 2.)

"Welcome to the Raikage Extravaganza!" The announcer would say as he twirled his blonde mustache. He wore a black pair of sunglasses and a flashy tuxedo. He had a large smile on his face and a microphone in his hand as he stood next to the Raikage who too had a smile. The man decided it was finally time to retire and so he was allowing someone else to take his place. He stood and made his way to the railing of the cliff hanging over the arena itself. "LET THIS MATCH BEGIN!" His voice would echo throughout the stadium as the crowd went wild.

The three (Itome, Dray, Yuri)  present in the arena got to choose their position on the ring. It was a large square, 100m by 100m. A single tree of 25m tall was the only thing present within the square. The last one standing was to be crowned the Raikage. Killing is indeed allowed, however should a target submit, they will be immediately escorted from the competition. The crowd was suspended above the arena, protected by a field created by the local Anbu to prevent civilian casualty as well as arena destruction.

Manda stood in his disguise as he watched the tournament within the crowd, his hands in his pocket and him posing as  Kenechi Yagaiki and wearing his uniform and knowing his voice, and having his chakra suppressed, Manda acting casual, shouldn't alarm anyone, not even the anbu around the area. Manda looked at the fight that was about to begin and who would win the title of Raikage, and maybe when the winner is announced, he would then make his move, but for now he enjoyed the fight that would take place and had his hair covering his sky blue lit sharingan eyes. Manda yawned and enjoyed the fight as long as he could, while secretly shifting his eyes about and counting the anbu members that were around the area.

Today was the day that he would be making history, leaving his mark on the world. Deep in his soul, he knew he would win this tournament. He was the perfect candidate for Raikage. He awoke from his bed, already dressed. Yesterday, he didn't bother taking off his clothes because he didn't want to be late to the tournament, just in case his alarm didn't work. He was dressed in normal attire. His headband, and Jounin vest, which was over a black undershirt. Along with this, he wore some black pants and black sandals. He was ready for battle, and no one would stop him. Even his parents were here to cheer him on, but he didn't want them to reveal he was an Uchiha. He even signed up with one of his codenames during his spying missions, Itome Hikaraku.

Itome headed into the bathroom to brush his teeth, and once he was done with that, he exited the compound. It was three in the afternoon, and the weather in Kumogakure was as nice as it ever got.

From what he heard, only two others joined, and neither was Roku, which disappointed him. But he still would try and have as much fun as possible. After all, what shinobi didn't enjoy the thrill of battle?

He entered the arena, a large crowd already waiting for him. Only one entrance was present, and he activated his Sharingan, his contacts preventing people from knowing his lineage.

No unusually high chakra signatures here... guess I must be the first one here.

Itome walked twenty five meters in front of him, climbing the thick and powerful tree, which had extremely bushy leaves for him to hide in.

He was a bit surprised that none of his opponents were here, but he was usually the first person to always arrive at events, coming five minutes earlier then everyone else. He studied the entrance to the tournament, ready to do what ninjas did best.

Chakra: 380/400

So, it was the day. The day a new raikage would be elected. The old one or probably still current one was retiring and he needed a worthy successor to take over.. Dray had out of curiousity to his own abilities applied for the post. Was he any where near worthy? He was unknown to anyone since the anbus are mostly stealth in everything they do. All along, dray had watched as pretty elaborate talks were made as dray waited for the match to start wanting to see his opponent.. But much to his suprise, he was not fighting just one opponent. They were two to be precise... As dray heard the voice that declared the match to begin, he was pretty sure that this match definitely had the rule of.."Do whatever you can to win"... Having known this, before arriving the location, dray had put on his thick black vest his anbu armour consisting of metal plates covering his upper torso, his arms and knee downwards. His bandages both wrapped around his arms and his nose and mouth well covered as usual. He had his fuuma shuriken well folded behind his back, his anbu sword by his left hip.. He had come along with pretty expendable items such as shurikens laced invisibly on his waist, shurikens, smoke bombs and exploding tags and a medium scroll too... Merely sizing the arena to be about 99m by 99m, he could see just a single tree in the arena... Looks like things weren't gonna go easy... Still in the shades of where he was, he put on his anbu mask that had the pattern of a wolf as he stepped into the arena not minding the reaction of the crowd... Be it boos or hurrays... Not sighting any visible opponent... The real fight was yet to began as dray made sure that he was about fourty metres away from the entrance and thirty metres to the right giving an adjacent distance of 3Om between he and the tree in the arena..

Spoiler:

Manda stood in the crowd and walk through the crowd as he notice one anbu member standing near the entrance and was standing alone with no other anbu next to him. Manda went up to him and using his impersonation voice, asking the anbu where the bathrooms were. The anbu step to the side and pointed down the hallway. Manda walked into the hallway and into the many stalls of the men's bathroom, four regular, and one handicap stall. This part of the arena had no entrances or exits just a hallway with a male and female bathroom and thats it. Manda walked into the handicap stall and closed the door behind him and locked the door as he stood against the stall's wall and quickly used his transformation technique. He left his body as his own body went from standing to leaning against the wall. He took his ghostly flight to the anbu that he had previously had talked to and took over his body quickly. Manda now controlling this anbu, took his walk back into the bathroom and stopped right in front of the handicap stall. Manda then went into prone position and stuck the man's upper part of the body and head through the stall since the door was locked. The anbu was already halfway in the stall as Manda quickly left the body and entered his own body as he went from leaning to actually standing on his own two feet. The anbu was surprised on why he was staring at a bathroom sink and wall. Manda quickly went to the anbu and smashed the back of his head so hard with his foot that the anbu member got knocked out and Manda quickly stabbed him in the neck and ended his life. Manda lifted up his body and placed it on the toilet seat and placed his feet where it would appear he is using the bathroom for number two. Manda quickly exchange cloth with the man before doing that and used his other technique to take the man's face and impersonate his voice. Manda then crawled underneath the stall and rose to his feet quickly and suppressed his chakra as he walked out of the bathroom with no one else noticing or realizing what had just happened since no one was around the area. Manda went back outside of the hallway and stood his guard and watched the fight, not alerting anyone of any threat and watched the fight about to happen.

(placeholder, but yall can skip me, Manda don't post tho)

(OOC: Hey guys this event was started while I was on leave to a two day competition. I had notified everyone of this competition, so it's not like I disappeared or something. I was given permission by Ryan to see if you guys would let me join late as an unannounced participant or something since no fighting has started. What do you guys think?)

(Fine by me, but I'm about to post a massive wall.,...so....)

One of his opponents walked into the arena, he could tell by the man's massive chakra and the fact that he walked into the arena. It seemed his opponent was apart of the secret faction known as the ANBU, wearing the signature armor and mask Kumogakure ANBU were known for. This meant his opponent was most likely more skilled than him, but that didn't matter. Like his friend Yukki, he was the type of person that was always able to overcome the odds. He was going to lead the village into a Golden Age, one where Kumogakure was the ruler of the shinobi world.

Itome was silent from this tree, and stalked his prey with his eyes, analyzing his every move with the Sharingan. For now, he wouldn't attack, just because he liked the thrill of the hunt. Was it a downfall for him? Yes, but, it rarely ever effected him in a negative manner. He was amazed at how the ANBU entered the arena like this. No stealth or secrecy whatsoever, walking through the main entrance like a buffoon.  Itome would make sure that when he was the leader, he would be firing this man from this position as a member of the ANBU. He didn't even have sensory skills, because if he did Itome would have been found and this fight would have became a lot more interesting. He was a stain on the reputation of all ANBU members.

Crouching in the bushy leaves of the tree, he began to wonder if any of his former teammates were watching. Was Shigure cheering him on? Or, after all these years, was she still mad that Itome broke the promise? And he couldn't even bring back Yuuki either..

Rage was beginning to surface, although Itome was trying his best not to control it and take it out on the ANBU, even though he had a pretty clear shot. Shigure or his sensei would say that it didn't make sense for Itome to start killing perfectly usable ninja, even if he did tarnish the reputation of one of the most respected organizations in the world.

Control your emotions, damn it. You're better then those other Uchiha.. you're perfection!

With his emotions now under control, he let out a sigh, one his opponent was incapable of hearing due to the loud crowd and his distance from the tree, which was thirty meters. But where was the final member of this tournament? Did he think that it was stylish to arrive late? How could the village trust this mysterious late person as Raikage if he couldn't even be bothered to show up on time? If the mysterious challenger did come, Itome would make sure he would unleash his wrath tenfold on that person.

It was definitely time to make his move though. He wondered what this ANBU member specialized in, because he obviously didn't have any type of sensing skills. So, even though he wasn't the best at Genjutsu, he decided that he would be having a little fun.

Forming a single handseal, the tiger handseal, he would focus his chakra control into forming a massive illusion of many feathers that would drop around this pathetic, weak, ANBU member. The feathers covered an immense area of fifty meters and appeared fifteen meters above the ANBU, making escape, if possible, extremely difficult, because one he saw even a single feather, he would be knocked out cold, allowing Itome's clone to do the rest of the job. It was also possible for this jutsu to knock out everyone watching in the audience, even the Raikage. But, the effects of this jutsu were temporary. As the laws of Rikudo stated stated, the caster of a Genjutsu could not attack another person while under a Genjutsu, or risk being "voided", which meant that the Rikudo would come and erase that particular moment, and the attacker would be forced to start over again. Of course, since they were ninja, people obviously found loopholes around this rule, like using Shadow Clones. Fortunately, the Rikudo allowed this.

If, for some reason, the Genjutsu somehow effected him, the user,  the feathers would not knock him out, as his Sharingan was here to break him out of the Genjutsu.

Anyways, assuming his opponent did succumb from the effects of the Temple of Nirvana technique, Itome was unsure of what to do. Yes, Shigure and his sensei would tell him leave the ANBU member alive, but they would also say he's a disgrace...and they didn't need any disgraces in the village. He pondered this for a moment, not being stressed in the least bit because of the fact his opponent was sleeping like a baby(again, assuming the genjutsu worked). As Itome was just about to simply drag his opponent out of the stadium using his clone so he wouldn't get hurt in the battle against the late challenger, Itome saw the color of his skin from his foot, his nose twisting in disgust.

White trash...this man, was unskilled white trash that dared to try and take the mantle of Raikage? This man had such audacity, that he needed to be punished for it. His emotions were already fluctuating, switching from sadness to anger at a moment's notice. It was a bit amazing that all of this occured while Itome is sitting in a tree, and now it was time for the next phase of the plan. Forming the necessary handseals required, Itome would immediately make a clone of himself. Unlike the basic E-rank version, this version was solid, meaning it was far more durable. It could even perform jutsu. The clone, standing on a sturdy branch that was two meters away from Itome, automatically knew what to do as both the user and clone shared the same mind.

Kids would be watching this. After all, who didn't want to see a battle that would determine the fight for Raikage? But, Itome gave no fucks about those sniveling little brats. This would be the day that people would realize he was a threat, and not some simple minded buffoon. He was happy breaking his disguise, the one that he worked for so long, for the opportunity to become Raikage.

His shadow clone climbed down the tree, simply by using the tree walking exercise, a simple jutsu that had no chakra cost because of Itome's skill in Ninjutsu. He was a master, even though he didn't usually brag about it. It seemed that these days, everyone was good at Ninjutsu.

Anyways, the clone ran fifteen meters towards the sleeping body of the ANBU. Itome was still holding on to the Genjutsu, so he wouldn't be waking up anytime soon unless he had enough skill to break out of the jutsu.

Now, the clone would be fifteen meters away from the ANBU. From his holster on the left side of his waist, the clone would take out a kunai. From a holster on the left side of his knee, he would take out an explosive tag, quickly attaching it to the small, knife like tool. He was also a master of the weapons.

With the explosive note now attached to the kunai, the clone would throw it at the sleeping ANBU. Depending on how he fell, a variety of scenarios would take place, although Itome was trying to make his death as embarrassing as it possibly could.

Itome's clone's kunai was aimed at either his penis, or his asshole, depending on the way the ANBU fell. Even if he couldn't get those two spots, however, he would throw it at the ANBU's leg. With a single handseal from the clone, the exploding note would be activated, blowing his foe into smithereens. The explosion covered five meters, and Itome and his clone watched in delight as the sickly, pale piece of shit ANBU was reduced to a red paste, with a few traces of his organs on the ground.

Only the strongest survive in this world..and he simply wasn't good enough. The Raikage must have been drunk when he put such a weak man as his guards. But as the new leader of this village, I will make sure not to make such foolish mistakes.  

Itome scanned the arena, looking for any signs of the latecomer with his Sharingan. He was a bit annoyed that this man hadn't joined yet. The clone, knowing this information as soon as Itome knew it, took it upon himself to form three handseals(dog, boar, and ram). These handseals formed a basic, yet vital academy technique. That technique allows the user to turn into anything they want, a perfect copy if the user is skilled enough. And of course, being a master of Ninjutsu, he is able to use the transformation technique with no problems whatsoever, and did not require any chakra costs.

The clone turned into a small pebble, a pebble that would be the size of a grape. It was innocent, reassuring, and unnoticeable. Meanwhile, Itome released the audience from the Genjutsu. But this would only happen if the ANBU was dead, however.

The kids at home would probably think that this is all special effects, but, Itome knew that the parents were smarter then that, at least the Shinobi parents. He knew many people in this village, and they would be shocked to know that he would be able to execute someone so cleanly, especially in public. What was Shigure and his sensei thinking during all of this? What about his family, and the Uchiha that came with them? Would they finally respect him, knowing that he killed someone from outside the clan so cleanly? So much would change since this man would be dead. Could Itome handle it all?

He was excited at the prospect of facing this new challenger, if he would come before the Raikage would declare Itome of this tournament. But then, it hit him. What if this "man" was actually a woman? At the thought of this, he snickered.

A kunoichi actually being viable for this tournament? Tch. I'll believe it when hell freezes over..

Wherever Roku was, he must have felt satisfied that he was right, and Itome was indeed a dangerous person. As the minutes passed, he got bored, deactivating his Sharingan and waiting for his opponent to come. It made no sense to continually keep wasting chakra. His line of sight allowed him to see the entrance of the arena, and so could his clone, although he was mainly relying on his clone for backup, as Itome decided that he would begin reading.  

This book was massive, being about three thousand pages long. He'd just gotten it last night, but didn't get the chance to start the book because he was obviously trying to go to sleep early so he wouldn't oversleep for the tournament. The book was an epic, a very long poem that detailed the adventures of the Uzumaki that changed the world, otherwise known as Naruto Uzumaki. Naruto Uzumaki was a smart young man, Itome would tell. A fool wouldn't catalogue very important history, history that could be used to avoid mistakes previously made in the past. Kogakure needed more shinobi like him, but unfortunately, he was born in the leaf. A close friend of him, known only as Killer B was from Kumogakure, but that was another story meant for another time. Now that Itome thought about it, as he flipped each page, Naruto's situation started to look like his. Bullied by the people he was supposed to trust, claimed to be inferior..except, the magnitude of Naruto's situation was much higher. The whole village was against him. Students, adults, and even teachers. He couldn't escape the malice that was directed at him.

Feeling like he should resume at another time, that was far more appropriate, he closed the book. His shadow clone, disguised as a pebble still hadn't detected any intruders. He placed the book on a sturdybranch, watching the entrance..he was ready..

As dray made beautiful distances of about fourty metres from the only visible entrance and thirty metres adjacent from the tree, he was getting impatient as he could see no visible opponent... Probably, they were lurking in the shadow..
as dray proceeded to make a move, he felt a change in the atmosphere though he could not well detect yet... He looked forward to see white feather falling around.. Sensing a feeling of danger probably not knowing what was happening yet, using his skill in ninjutsu, he was almost at the last stage of the specialty which meant that he had trained to the point of performing handseals in a second or less than...
Performing the ram, the ox and boar skill in the fraction of a second, an elegant ice dragon came down from the clouds as it coiled defensively around dray.. As the dragon finished coiling raidly, dray felt dizzy as he now knew that he had been caught in a genjutsu and that would take quite a skill from him. He felt into the insides of the coiled dragon unconsciously for some seconds as he was unconsciously trying to break the genjutsu...but all efforts proving futile... Waiting for what was to come, it wasn't long before he was struck out of sleep with an explosion that was received by his ice dragon as this unfortunate attack probably from his unknown attacker had brought him back to reality... He still stayed within the dragon analysing his next line of action as he had established the fact that his attacker was a genjutsu user..tho, a disadvantage on his path..
WC:370/400

Admins, I request a ruling for extreme metagame.

He obviously closed his eyes because I used a genjutsu he doesn't know what it causes.

VERDICT MOTHSFUKAS
Due to drays tech aka ice dragon requires a one post preperation and no such preperation was done, the explosive tag hits dray creating a five meter explosion. Due to your generous hunter itome, dray is not dead but escapes the field -and tournament- with second degree burns all over his body, the firce of the explosion also tore some of his skin apart, though his fellow anbu rush in with hiding like a mole technique and grab his body from the field, taking him to the hospital.
-Dray is out kf the tournament and needs medical help within the next 24 hours or he WILL indeed die. Basically go make a 500 word post in the hospital gettin healed

This would be interesting.  The struggle for the position of Raikage, he who should protect all in the village... and yet, in order to succeed in this struggle, you had to fight, and possibly even kill, your fellow Kumogakure Shinobi.  There were such oddities in the world of Shinobi.  How does one prove they are fit to protect a village in an event where he does nothing but harm those from his village?  It was times like these that Roku doubted the leadership of his village.  Only incompetence and stupidity could be involved in a decision such as this.  And his Raikage was supposed to be renouned as one of the greatest... the best since the Third?  That was a simple mockery to the Third's legacy.  The legacy of one of the most powerful Shinobi in Kumogakure history, and the greatest Kage ever to live, being insulted by an inclusion of fodder such as the current Raikage.

The leadership of a village needed to be built upon a foundation of protection.  To properly protect your people, a leader would require two very important things, that, were they, or even one of them excluded, would completely nullify any and all effort to make your village a safe place.  The Jounin standing in the audience recognized this.  This was precisely why he would be entering this free-for-all battle royale for the Raikage position - as completely irrational as it was - as an unannounced competitor.  It was more on a whim than anything else.  Were the leadership of his village currently better, he'd never dream of competing for a position such as Raikage.  Roku hated being responsible for people, not because of the responsibility in and of itself, but because he had trouble working as a unit or team.  Working alone was much easier.

As Roku watched the action on the battlefield, this forced him to wonder about why he had decided to be a Jounin sensei.  Sure, it was partly on orders, but he could have refused them... or sent the Genin back to the Academy and been home free.  So why didn't he?

He stood, wondering about this, in the highest level of the viewing stands, among the audience.  He could feel the wind whipping about his face, caused by the altitude of where he stood.  He could barely see the minor details of the battlefield below, so when he noticed the small feathers suddenly floating around the ANBU who had entered into the arena, the young Jounin felt an immediate sense of confusion trying to identify what they were.  He could not identify the objects, though because of the immediate slumber that the ANBU combatant fell into, he assumed there was some type of Genjutsu involved.  It was then that the young Jounin noticed the closer members of the audience also fall into a slumber.  He determined from there that, judging from the rows of people and how far they were from these feathers, the technique had a range of 50 meters.  He also determined that there was another combatant somewhere in the arena, though as he searched, he could not identify his location.

This mystery, however, was almost immediately solved.  Roku saw a man emerge from the only tree in the center of the battlefield and attack the ANBU in his slumber.  It was too far to see exactly what had been done, but it was apparent that an explosive tag was the cause of an explosion centered just below the man's midsection.  He was immediately taken away by ANBU on the scene.  

The man responsible for the attack formed a handseal, though Roku was too far away to see which.  It was because of this lack of information that he assumed that, in the puff of smoke, the man was a clone that had used the hand seal to disperse.  In actuality, the clone had transformed into a pebble where he was standing exactly.  It seemed the clone had also released this genjutsu that had caused the audience and the ANBU who had been competing in this battle royale as well, as the men and woman in the closer rows began to stir from sleep and mass confusion began to circulate in the area.

It was Roku's time to move.  The spectators' standsa formed around the arena and Roku ran at his full Master Taijutsu speeds around the edge.  He simultaneously used his Shikotsumyaku to snap his collarbone on the right side.  This was one of the most painful bone breaks one could be forced to endure.  However, he also needed use of that right arm, so he, in addition to breaking his collarbone, grew small bone splinters in the location of the break on the outside of his collarbone, connecting one side of the break to the other, so that it would be held in place, though not tightly, and would grant him use of his arm without damaging his innards.  This, however, did not reduce the pain.  The pain was his way to automatically prevent himself from falling under the Genjutsu that whomever this opponent was was capable of.  These bone spinters, because of his Shikotsumyaku still gave him about double bone durability in the area of the break, so it was by no means fragile, nor a "weak point." And because ripping bones out of your body was not exactly painless, the Jounin could deal with the pain presented by his break with minimal hindrance, as he was almost used to pain.

The cunning Jounin was now on the far side of the entrance of the arena, standing near the rail that separated the arena and the audience.  Roku vaulted the rail, though because of his Wall Walking Practice, remained away from the ground and stood about midway between the ground and where he previously stood near the railing.  He was located about fifteen meters in the air.  Though he was not sure of it, he knew there was to be a third challenger in this event, and because of that, the young Jounin determined that the owner of the Clone Technique would likely be watching the entrance, and not the other side of the arena. Because of his Mastery of Ninjutsu, this simple E-Rank technique took no toll on the Kaguya's chakra levels.  The Kaguya had determined that the real attacker of the ANBU was located in the tree or underground somewhere because of the location of the emergence of the clone.  

The tree, and about a 15 meter radius around the tree is where Roku decided to strike.  He formed a slew of hand seals, so fast that it seemed as if the two techniques he was going to perform were actually two parts to the same technique, happening simultaneously.  The first techinque he performed was call Earth Release:  Moving Earth Core.  This jutsu was generally considered B-Rank, though it was possible to modify it in a way that it was more powerful, required more chakra, and thus ultimately raised its ranking.  He used the A-Rank version.  Using the tree in the middle of the battlefield as the centerpoint, the ground within a 30 meter radius dropped immediately 30 meters downward, too fast and large scale for someone with less than Adept in Taijutsu skill to react to.  Almost simultaneously, Roku's second technique, Earth Release:  Tearing Earth Turning Palm was activated.  In a normal scenario, this technique would cause the ground to spiral in on itself to bury or crush the opponent.  However, in this case, the technique would collapse the walls of the lowered portion of earth around the victim, still spiraling in on him.  It was nearly unavoidable, and extremely deadly.

Roku stood in wait, awaiting the results of his attack.  The element of surprise... was extremely powerful.

Manda had been witnessing the whole battle while standing and impersonating an anbu guard and watched the fighting unfold right before his eyes. Manda then noticing that one of the challengers from the tournament is burned with second degree burns and that the anbu who are closest to the arena using their mole technique to evacuate him to the hospital. Manda then tapping his right foot on the ground, as he used his sensing technique to pinpoint a location to where they would bring the man too and within a couple of seconds he found the location and decided to make his move. Manda had to make his move quick, he didn't want to draw attention to himself or look suspicious. The only entrance that lead to the hospital was guarded by two anbu members. Manda took his walk over towards the other side of the tournament arena and walked right in front of the two anbu members. As he was about to walk through these two anbu members, they placed their hand forward and told him to identify himself and told him that a man was just injured and they don't want anything bad to happen to the injured man and as a precaution they ask him to take off his mask and show him his identification card to them. Manda showed him the identification card and also took off his mask. The picture in the photo matched the man in the picture and they were wondering why he had the sharingan eyes when the man in the photo isn't a uchiha. Manda told them that he had received both sharingan eyes from a few missions before that involving a confrontation with an uchiha while doing a mission. They nodded as Manda placed his mask over his face and they stepped away and allowed him to enter and asking him why he wanted to see the challenger. Manda stated he was a personal friend of the man and that they were childhood friends and wanted to check up on him to make sure he was okay. The anbu members understood and requested another anbu to take his stationary place. They told him not to take to long since they need all available units at the tournament. Manda nodded and walked through them and headed towards the hospital with a grin underneath his mask and then walked into the hospital with his hands in his pocket, leaving the scenery.

[EXIT]

Juri Han The Neon Bitch "These are strange times my friends." A low, female voice begins, addressing a group of about 15 Kumogakure ninja. "Our land is no longer clean, our people are no longer safe, something dark has befallen among us." This is all taking place a Kumogakure police station, each ninja is at least a Special Jounin ranked cop. In full armor, the men listen on one knee to the regular Jounin ranked woman speak. "We know this intruder is here, we know he is trying to hide his face amongst our people, like the slimy coward he is." Juri Han is the leader of this group, she's in her normal attire, she doesn't need all the armor he companions need. "We won't let this filth get away, his crimes against our community will end on this day! WE ARE KUMO!" She screams, rallying the men into cheering and shouting "WE ARE KUMO!" in a chant, all rising and heading out. -Flashback- "Kenechi... no..." Juri says, while observing her dead friends body. A full team of Kumogakure police and detectives search over the dead ninja's body, him being killed in such a way. Each clue is analyzed over and over, but they can't figure out what the motive is. Kenechi was well liked by every ninja he had encountered, no ninja in the entire village hated him. Juri had a theory "Obviously someone wanted to take his appearance, thus why both men are killed. These two men are just random guys, minding their business. Put out a search on Kenechi Yagaiki, if you see him, tell me asap. Also tell EVERYONE he's dead, so if anyone sees him this will cause suspension. I'll bring you Justice my friend." she says balling her fist tight. -Present day- With her police ninja in tow, the woman storms the arena in search of the fake. "Kenechi Yagaiki" was indeed spotted, and his location was traced and pinpointed to the tournament. By the time Juri had arrived, a couple people had noticed "Kenechi", and were laying the trap in place. Two police officers had tracked the impostor into a bathroom, but he never exited, only an ANBU guard. Once the two man stormed in they only found that said ANBU member's dead corpse, the impostor had done it again. "Juri-san, he's in Josiro's the ANBU guard's body now..." they warn her over a walkie talkie. She is not pleased that this man has taken another life, but grins very hard once she spots this man. He apparently began approaching two ANBU guards, the area around them wasn't very crowed, but had people. The good thing about Kumo ANBU guards is that each have a distinctive mask, so Juri knew for a fact this man was her target. Juri was in a hallway when she spotted the man, but began following him towards the exit, but she wasn't the only person walking in the man's direction, because people were all trying to see if the injured Kumo ninja was okay. Juri posed as one of them. Juri was about 10 meters away from the man, the police guards were on their way to her location, but began clearing people in the area out (people not in the room). The actual room the two were in wasn't that big, but it had enough room to move around in. There were only two exits, the one the ANBU were guarding and the exit from where the two ninja just came from. Excluding the faker and Juri, 10 people were in the room, 8 of the worried people trying to see the fallen ninja, and the two ANBU guards. Juri didn't want to risk the people's lives, but this man had to be slain. Before the man can finish his conversation with the two ANBU guards, Juri had cleared the 10 meters in less than a second and aims a very powerful kick towards the fakers head, while his back is still turned. He wouldn't have time to react to this, nor would he notice anything was out of place, these people had been only trying to see if the injured Jounin was all right, and were already behind the man for a few minutes. Once his sensory skills registered Juri Han's instant movement, her kick should already be aimed at his head. Word Count: 0722/0000

382.5 chakra left

While Manda was still talking to the guards, his sharingan was still active and right before the woman could strike him in the head with her kick, he ducked low and avoided the kick with the aide of his sharingan,he wasn't blind and always kept his guard up no matter what area he was in. After all he did commit two crimes today and he knew that someone out there was watching him from afar, no matter how much he kept it low key, someone out there did there detective work and discovered something was out of ordinary. While Manda ducked low from the kick, that split second he leaped forward brushing past the two anbu guards by surprise, took his landing right behind them with his right leg impacting the ground, with his left leg in mid air. Another split second happened after the landing and he twirled his body around and formed the tiger hand sign and also was focusing his chakra and finally he activated the jutsu in less than a seconds time, where he activated his Temple Of Nirvana Technique.

The white feathers all of a sudden dropped from the 50m area to where he was standing and everything else that covered within that distance, meaning that avoiding sight of one single white feather wasn't going to happen in reality and the distance that it covered, you would have to be blind to avoid all that. If she did fall under the spell of the genjutsu and this would happen if she were to spot just one single feather knock, If all else went perfect, then Manda would proceed into making his escape by running the opposite direction, which also had white feathers covering that area as well, just in case there were more anbu that direction who chose to interfere.

((As stated by Admin I'm allowed to post, my kick went through and kicked you in the face, knocking you out))

With swift speeds and force the powerful Kunochi Juri Han successfully knocks her opponent out, her kick aimed right at the left side of the faker's face. He goes flying 5 meters to the right, his eyes would roll to the back of his head, his body begins to twitch, going straight into a seizure. "Oh no, you aren't getting off that easy!" she says, placing her gym card in his mouth so he won't bite off his tongue. Once he stops shaking Juri notices something, something kinda gross... he had soiled himself. A pile of piss surrounds the man, causing the woman to jump back a foot in disgust. "Fucking disgusting." she says, covering her nose. Walking towards the dryer side of his body, she checks his pulse... he's alive. "Uh ma'am, what's going on, why did you attack him?" One of the ANBU guards asks. "He's an impostor, what did he say?" Juri responds. "He was trying to see the injured contestant, he claimed they were friends." Hmmm... trying to kill an injured man, this guy was a beast with no morality. "Uh one more thing ma'am... he has these blue sharnigan." Sharnigan?! Juri was now intrigued, but how would she handle this. The crowd of worried civilians had already fled, with the police guards helping them exit. "Look away." Juri commands the guards. From her pouch she pulls out a plastic bag, one she kept on her encase she had to search for evidence if this impostor had fled the scene again. Juri opens his left eyelid and plucks out his eyeball, placing it into the bag. One of the guards sees what's she's doing and vomits, she rolls her eyes and sighs. "I told you to look away." Now... should the other eye be taken? "Let's not be greedy." Juri tells herself with a smile, licking her lips. She places a gauze and medical tape over the open hole, to stop his bleeding. "I'll let you live..." She says as she comes closer towards the man's face, placing a kiss onto his lips. She then notices he face looks weird, and pokes the skin. With force she rips the skin mask off his face, witnessing Manda's true face. "I'll remember this face for when we meet again. Guards, take him to the hospital, and handcuff him to the bed." She says, holding the blue sharnigan in hand. "Job well done boys, Kenichi is avenged." Two policemen pick up the one eyed Uchiha and begin carrying him away, but the anger of of cop explodes. He begins to punch the man in the face, breaking his nose while the others drop him and kick him in the ribs. Juri laughs manically as this unfolds, trying to stop them all the while. One cop stomps on the Uchiha's right leg with force, breaking it so bad the tendons tear. "Okay guys that's enough." Juri says, still cackling a little. Each cop spits on his face, with Juri delivering the final disrespect, kicking his own piss into his face. A bloodied and beaten Uchiha was dragged off towards the hospital, bet he'd never do this again. Juri leaves with Sharnigan in hand, what shall she do with this?

-exit with all his moneys, equipment and eye-

While the policemen begin beating up the man a soft clicking began to resonate and echo through the room. This clicking would become louder and louder until it was right outside the exit not guarded by the anbu. The clicking sound would be originating from a pair of red high heels making brief contact with the floor that belongs to the anbu Captain of the Cloud, Carmen Terumi. Carmen was dressed in one of her usual exotic outfits, a revealing red blouse that showed much of her chest and a loose sarong that exposed her long, slender legs. The sarong was covered in a green snake like design, and she wore her usual pair of golden snake earrings. Her ninja head band was tied loosely around her neck and her piercing dark eyes seems to scan the room instantly when she walked and stood at the entrance. The anbu and cops would stand at attention when she entered the room, stopping their beating just as piss had been flung in the man's face and just holding unconscious the man by the arms.

"My, my what do we have hear, it seems I was notified too late and missed all the fun. To think some man would try and make a scene at an event under Anbu security. I'll have to punish my messenger later, but first what information do we have on this rather rude and rough looking man here?" The anbu captain would say lazily, she had been notified of one of her men being killed and a team of ninja be sent to investigate, but she had been too busy with mission orders to leave right away, as captain she was notified of all ninja procedures that went on that included her anbu details, and the fact the one man had tried to make a scene at one of the biggest events in the village under her security annoyed her greatly. All the cops and ninja would look at the woman known as Juri to speak as she had lead the operation, but also because they themselves were too flustered and slightly intimidated to talk.  

-exit interrupted-

(OOC:  I hate to do this, but Ito, I will be posting sometime in the next few hours depending on what happens with the school assignment I'm working on at home right now.  If you have NOT posted by then, seeing as your 24-hour limit is already up, I will ask a mod to 24-hour you and you will be skipped. However, if this happens, wounds will not cause death, though you will have to go through what Dray went through to heal, and you will be escorted out.)

Agreed, we can't waste time on this

i am w8ting for clarification, did roku run into a fucking barrier or not? I cant fucking post until i know this but u guys dont seem 2 fking understand that

Topic on hold

OOC: It seems a topic of mine has caused a bit of confusion. So we're rewinding a bit. I take full blame and will accept any complaints. The situation is now immediately after Itome has risen successful. His opponent has just been removed and taken to emergency care. Any events happening in this thread that did not happen within the fight will stay the same

IC:

The blond haired announcer makes his way to the edge of the cliff and suspends himself from it, using chakra in his feet to prevent himself from falling. With the mic in his hand he called out to the crowd. "Itome with an impressive win. However the Raikage isn't sure if he's the right man for the job yet, that fight was a bit too fast to determine it. So now we move on to round two! Medical Ninjas, do your thing!" A team of medical ninjas rushed on the field as the barrier was dropped and tended to Itome, restoring his chakra if he wished to accept it. "Does anyone in the arena wish to challenge this man for the title of Raikage? Yea your life is on the line, but just think!" He pointed his lanky arm to the spot of which the Raikage was sitting. "That could be you in ten minutes!"

(OOC: This will send the event back to a point before i entered, so i won't be posting to deal with all this again)
