The Crash Site. (IOOC Event Topic A)

Having already dispatched most of his Village to The Land of Tea, Raikage Raiki, decided he wanted the first look, as he neared the borders of the country. Smelling the smoke and fire even from where he was, put him on edge, he knew that it wouldn't be an easy scenario to navigate through, as he wasn't quite sure what to expect. Flexing his arms a bit, and clinching his hands a few times, in an effort to get more blood pumping through his body, he sighed. "Well guess, it's time to check it out." Despite the fact he had left first, he left orders for the rest of his Shinobi that they could come at any time after his arrival at the Crash Site, so he doubted they were far behind him.

Working his way through the many trees the smell of fire burning became even clearer, as well as a new smell, death. Whether from the Meteors crashing down, or the supposed heavy Missing Nin presence he wasn't sure, but he wasn't about to wait to find out. Pushing a bit of chakra into his feet his pressed on, quicker then before, nearly breaking the next limb he leaped from. It wouldn't  be long before the Crash Site as well as the destroyed village would come into view of the powerful man. As such, it wouldn't be long before the powerful man came into view of the rest of the Shinobi there.

Knowing he was nearing the village, he pushed even harder on his last jump crushing the tree limb completely as he went sailing into the air. As he came down he spotted a particularly taller building, not quite at the Epicenter of the crater but just outside of it's damage circle. Landing upon the building in a knelled manner he created a fairly deep indentation on it's surface before standing back up to both legs. After having done so, he casually walked towards the edge of the building where he looked down upon the fighting of Missing Nin, as well as the arrivals of others.

A large smile began to spread onto the face of the tall man, his white coat had begun to blow with the slight occasional gusts of wind caused by the heated ground sky. As such, the heated ground and sky caused by the Meteors left the sky somewhat darkened as a roar of thunder began to echo all throughout the area they were in as if it were a Valley. Never one to leave the chance for theatrically, the Raikage began to openly charge his Raiton Natured Chakra and allow it to swirl around him. From atop the building he'd landed on it gave him an almost Godly appearance, Lightning Swirling around the man as the clouds stayed darkened overhead. Though for the moment his face would for the most part remain hard to see as his lowered Hat, would cover all but his mouth, and his right eye, which remained opened in an excited look.

"The Raikage has arrived!!" His loud embellishment though likely drawing a lot of attention to himself, combined with his stage like performance, could either leave in awe, in fear, or simple awareness.

Raiki allowed his body to continue funneling the chakra that as swirling around him, as he turned to see a new arrival atop his self proclaimed building of Raikage. The first thing, that Raiki had noticed was the Iwa headband strapped onto the older man's head. He was actually rather surprised by the man's forwardness of confronting the Raikage, few dared to do so, especially when considered hostile. "It appears you share those qualities as well." Allowing a smirk to form on his face, the Raikage crossed his arms, "You come and confront a man who you know to be Raikage, with no worry, and..." Raiki looked behind the other Shinobi for dramatic affect, "No back up, as well."

"Now who's being brash and bold. You must have quite the confidence in your abilities to so wantonly challenge me." The Raikage shrugged his shoulders, "It is of no matter." Uncrossing his arms, as the man jumped away forming a snake hand sign, 'What could you be planning?' After unfolding his arms, his smile only widened, at the thought of finally getting some action, after having been stuck in the village for so long.

Unfolding his arms, he quickly began to follow suit, and formed Monkey Rabbit then Ox, causing his Chakra to spike once again. The Raiton chakra that was swirling around his whole body then began to move and condense itself now swirling around only his right arm. The chakra itself was heavy, and dense, causing occasional sparks that would tear pieces of the roof off. This still only brought a smile to The Raikage's face however, as he remained just as excited, if not more so.

Bansho looked at the man with a smile finding itself on his face, The Raikage was a very snarky man. Keeping the Snake seal pressed against his chest, he listened as the Raikage said his bit and then activated a powerful Raiton Ninjutsu, looking at the large "bolt" of energy the man felt a sweat bead drip down his face, this bolt was extremely strong and it was infused with a large amount of Raiton chakra, there was no doubt in his mind that this bolt could kill him. Such was the world of the shinobi, even the strongest of ninja if not careful could be taken out by techniques that in the hands of some would be nothing, but in the hands of this man... But he still had a trump card, the Raikage hadn't been able to identify him, Bansho was going to use this to his advantage. But he did have to even the playing field slightly, the Raikage was over confident and from hearing about the stories of Raikage's past when they were over confident was when they were most dangerous.

"That jutsu, I don't know it. A specialty of yours Raikage-sama?" He first asked, in his experience during high level battles of will and Ninjutsu, keeping a casual conversation going could lighten the mood, Bansho did not want a battle of blood lust, as he had stated before. He wanted a battle of respect. "I also ask that you please do not underestimate me, my name does in fact carry weight in not only my village but yours as well..." He fell silent for a moment and then began to go through a series of seals on his own. Monkey, Dragon, Dog, Boar, and Tiger. Suddenly there was a poof of smoke and a perfect identical of Bansho appeared beside him. "Fire Release: Fire Clone Technique" With the Fire Clone now standing at his side, he looked up at the Raikage and a look of determination crossed his face as he said, "You're facing the Earth Reaper of Iwagakure!"

Smiling at the notice of his powerful Ninjutsu, The Raikage decided he would oblige the man, in some friendly combative conversation after all other than the fact he was on a personal Mission he felt no blood lust towards the man. "Actually yes." Smiling wider, he decided to continue on, "It's a Jutsu I created myself when I was just a Chuunin, it's quite powerful truth be told." Deciding since it was unlikely one of them would survive the encounter he thought why not unnerve the man even more, "And this is just the weak version." Listening to the man's second request, though the Raikage was a proud and powerful man, he always felt combat was something much more personal, and to insult a man by not taking them seriously, was something he would not condone.

Nodding his smile soon faded from his face, "I will fight you then, as if my very life depended on it." Gripping his fists tightly he watched the man perform a few more hand signs before a fire clone burst into life next to him, "That's not a bad technique, Earth Reaper." The name did have some meaning to the Raikage, as he'd been quite a famously power Shinobi in Iwa, he'd wager the man held strength at least somewhat close to his own. Deciding, that in honor of the request he would take the battle seriously he formed a single hand sign, his index and second finger on each hand brought up to form a cross. Channeling his chakra he then formed the Ox sign immediately after causing a Raiton Shadow Clone to form next to him in a poof of smoke. "Now are you ready to do battle with the Lightning Sage of Kumogakure!" After his loud yell, he threw his arm forward unleashing the Raiton Strike as it tore at blinding speeds towards the original Bansho. Now that he gave his promise to fight seriously, his every attack would be an attempt on the man's life, so he had best be ready to fight back.

His clone, while the original fired his attack would be forming hand signs of his own, Monkey, Rabbit, then Ox. This had caused a bolt to form around the left arm of the Clone Raikage, who was watching the situation awaiting the situation to unfold itself, before using his own Jutsu.

"Eh, it's okay... A little technique I picked up from a wandering Jounin..." That was all Bansho had time to say before he knew the battle was now erupting full swing. He was watching the lightning energy closely, based on it's size and the Raikage's chakra levels there was no doubt that the bolt would have a trajectory speed beyond what Bansho was capable of predicting... Tch... This jutsu would make this fight a lot harder than it had to be. The Raikage had then done two things, he had created a Kumo-nin specialty Raiton Shadow Clone, and then he had loudly declared that the fight would now be intensified. After exclaiming loudly, he then thrust his arm out firing the powerful Raiton bolt. Bansho had been right, the trajectory of it was insane. But as the bolt fired towards the Tsuchikage, he didn't move... And as the bolt pierced through his chest suddenly there was a poof and a kawarimi target landed charred and with a large hole in it. After Bansho had finished the Fire Clone, he had made sure to create a cautionary kawarimi, although he only had three targets with him and one was now depleted. He knew now the speed of the Raikage's jutsu.

Bansho's actual body was now standing a few feet away from the edge of the roof, the clone standing over where the target had fallen. "That was an incredible feat to watch Raikage-sama, I wonder though if you and I have similar combat styles... Gutsy offenses with little means of defense..." At the mention of this, Bansho knew he was at a key disadvantage, he had no earth to use in his offensive. Rain had begun to fall around the battlefield so that had provided a source of water, but he didn't have any earth. He leaped from the building, using his chakra to adhere to the building all the way to the ground. Once he was on the ground he quickly dashed over to an area covered with grass and dirt but slightly scorched from the pure destructive power of the meteor.

Now that he had reached a landscape where he could actually fight, he waited for the Raikage to follow. His Fire Clone had followed suit with the Tsuchikage and now stood a few feet from him. He knew that the Raikage's Shadow Clone had another one of those bolts prepped. He had to be ready for anything...
