3. Each Participant will have 48 hours to reply to keep in line with the standard Combat rules on site.

The time had finally come. Sitting in the stands he had watched the fights among his peers go on. His blood boiling, itching for the thirst of battle to the point that he was absolutely steaming. Flickers of blue flame licked off of his body as he watched these fights until at long last - his name had been called. A smirk appeared on his face as he stood up, gripping the seat in front of him hard enough to shatter within his grasp as he stepped out and began to walk," I was starting to get to the point where I was about to jump into the fight myself and kill them both. Mmmm," the thought of it just sent his blood boiling to a point his Yuumei began to rattle excitedly. As the tall red haired male made his way toward his side of the arena, he cracked his knuckles and made sure to limber up even if it was going to be a fast fight, it would be fun for him at least. He could tell based on the previous fight itself, these shinobi were of a new age. Wet behind the ears and wishing for a win... This was not his mindset. In fact he was not going to wish for anything. He was going to take it.. As the light touched his body, he would move until he was 20m from the wall behind him and 40m from the other side in front of him where his opponent would be entering. Now it was a game of waiting till they showed up and the fight commenced, he had no need for weapons. He had no need for a snappy one liner. Once his opponent stepped foot into this arena the time would come and the fight would soon be on.

Tatsuo entered the arena, seeing his opponent standing ready. He noticed the way the male presented himself, his thirst for battle almost tangible. It was enough to make the small boy's hair stand on end, but he couldn't give in to intimidation. His face was set in a determined expression, the red Sharingan within his eyes spiraling into activation as he took his place 20 meters from the Shinkou. He wasn't sure of the outcome, but he'd be damned if he didn't give it all he had. He held two fingers up in the sign of confrontation. He was ready to begin.

At the moment the signal was given, Tatsuo would reach in his pouch and throw a smoke bomb on the ground, creating a cloud of smoke 6 meters in diameter surrounding his body. Within the smoke, he wove 4 quick signs, two shadow clones appearing to his left and right diagonals at a 2 meter distance from the original, within the smokescreen. He then dropped his Spooky Doll on the ground and wove another 5 seals, making the doll take on an illusory image of himself. Both clones would then run on left and right diagonal paths at 100 speed for 8 meters, spacing themselves 10 meters between the original and Nurai while leaving Tatsuo and the substitution behind in the smoke cloud, creating a diamond formation between the four points. While the clones were running, they would each be weaving signs, Clone A spawning forth a hell hound construct of lightning chakra 3 meters away from him, 7 meters from Nurai, and directing it to charge the older boy at a speed of 90, aiming to bite the boy's thigh at 90 power. Clone A would retain control of the hound during its charge, and would command it to change direction as necessary should Nurai attempt to evade it.

At the same moment, Clone B would become enveloped in a cloak of lightning nature chakra at 90 speed, expanding half a meter away from its body. Three dragon head constructs then extend from the cloak at jutsu speed, each 30 centimeters thick. Two of these dragon heads launch out at once to try and bite Nurai's thigh and shoulder on the opposite side of Clone A's attack with 90 power, the third head holding back. Clone B would likewise manipulate the dragon heads to chase down and strike Nurai should he attempt to evade them, and should the attacks of the first two heads get interfered with, the third head would launch as an immediate follow-up.

At the same moment the clones attack, the original Tatsuo would be standing beside his substitution inside the smoke screen, grabbing a Batarang out of his pouch and launching it straight at Nurai at 110 speed, set to deal 50 damage should it hit. If the smoke was cleared and Tatsuo became visible, the Substitution would be there to create further confusion and act as another decoy. The fight had begun.

A ranks chosen for fight:

As he watched his opponent walk into the arena a disappointed look came about his face. A child. They would have him test his abilities against someone not even his age allegedly. While there had been a sigh of disappointment from the male, he would take this as if he had been fighting his brother or even his own father. From what he understood he would be fighting against an Uchiha which if they had been older could have been an interesting match for him. Cracking his knuckles he would wait until the male had gotten to his position of 20 meters. As the young boy displayed the seal of confrontation, Nurai would scoff for a moment and shrug, this wasn't a fight between village shinobi. No the boy was prey and Nura was the hunter. As the boys eyes took on the crimson hues of the Sharingan, Nurai would activate his matured Meigan as the outer edges of his iris and the inner edge of his iris became a combination of green and blue. As the boy reached back to reach into his pouch, Nurai's hands came together to weave four seals. At the completion of his seals the smoke bomb would hit the ground obscuring vision or so his opponent thought. While his plan would have worked on someone with regular vision, the powers of his Meigan would reveal the boys chakra network to him and thus allow him to still see him through the smoke. At the end of his fourth seal, he would release the fourth of the Eight Gates formation as his physical abilities became enhanced. Sliding his foot back a single inch he would imbue the leg with Meiton, before bringing his leg upward to perform an axe-kick. From his leg two different attacks would perform at once. The first attack, would travel forward at a speed of 120, moving forward as the young boy would just finish creating the clones causing a ripple through the air as it traveled. The attack formed by his Iron Leg Dragon would span 10 meters in radius moving forward with precision to catch the clones off guard and cutting off their advance.

The vacuum shell would collide with both clones as they reached the 6 meter mark and once the shell collided with them they would find out something interesting. As the shell caught them before the completion of their hand seals, they would be subject to the attacks overwhelming power as they would find themselves unable to perform handseals. That was if they could withstand the 120 power show of force.As his foot came down, only seconds after the first attack the second would roar to life as a black dragon of fire would roar to life. The flamed dragon had a body of five meters and a head of 50cm as it rushed past the clones who would have been done in by the first attack. Still able to see where the younger male had been, the dragon would crash through the smoke hitting the young Uchiha full force. On one hand the first attack would take away his ability to perform Ninjutsu, while the second would seal his fate. The Dragon itself would continue and for some reason the boy could evade the dragons path, it would slam into the ground three meters in front of the male and explode causing a 20 meter radius explosion to trigger, dealing damage not only to the ground underneath the Uchiha but to him as well. Bringing his hands together he would weave another set of seals as he watched what the boy would do next, if he could.

Tatsuo watched as Nurai's foot came down, a shockwave emitting from the impact and traveling towards him at high speeds, the black dragon in its wake. He would have to abandon his clones, but he wasn't going to stick around to find out how it would feel to take an attack like that. At the moment Nurai's attacks were unleashed, Tatsuo's hands would come together in the seal of the Ram, before he whisked himself 21 meters to his right at 240 speed, evading both the iron leg and the black dragon explosion that followed. This would place him 29 meters from his opponent. It seemed that Nurai didn't care for being caught in his own explosion radius, as Tatsuo watched it engulf the older male. 'He must be insane,' was all the boy could manage to think, before diving right into his next move.

In an instant, Tatsuo's skin took on a fiery orange hue as chakra surged through his body, enhancing his abilities. Weaving four hand seals, Tatsuo spewed forth a volley of 9 fireballs all 1 meter in diameter, timed to reach Nurai by the time his black dragon explosion dissipated (Speed/Power 115). The balls were spaced in such a way to surround Nurai in an inverted V-formation at 4 meters apart from one another, to make sure that all empty space was covered by their explosion radius (each arm of the V total 20 meters in length, 15 meters between the widest point of the arms). Upon each pair of fireballs reaching the appropriate distance, Tatsuo would direct their angles up to 90 degrees toward his opponent's location at 115 speed, attempting to close him in. Tatsuo would redirect the balls if needed should Nurai attempt to evade them, ready to make them explode for 115 damage should any one of them get within 2 meters of Nurai. While the fireballs were hurtling toward his opponent, Tatsuo chased after them for 10 meters at 115 speed to get him within 19 meters of Nurai, weaving two more seals in preparation for his next move.

Watching silently he kept his eyes on the mass of smoke and chakra within it, waiting for something to change just as he assumed it would. As the dragon moved forward, Nura would be able to see the three masses of chakra within it and with the "real" Tatsuo he would be able to see the accumulation of chakra swelling, which meant something was about to happen. With his hands still together and foot back on the ground he would perform a single ram handseal and with a surge of chakra disappear from his current position moving backwards 3 meters at the speed of 205 as the dragon detonated. The explosion of black energy would permeate the area causing some damage to the flooring of the arena itself, but he could tell that his attack had missed its mark. Had he been a moment too late he would have likely been hit with his own Meiton technique, but even still it would not have done that much to him. That only meant this would go for a little longer. Turning his body to face the direction of where Tatsuo would now be as he began weaving his handseals. He would quickly notice the continual accumulation of chakra within the boys body and smile as he prepared to counter attack. He would quickly move forward 3 meters, as the fireballs formed and moved from their original position and take into account the formation and speed in which they were moving. Stopping exactly at the 3 meter mark he would cause the raging fire within himself to expand outward 360 degrees at a speed of 110, timing the release of this fire when the fireballs were 14.5 meters from him. The fire would expand into a dome that would travel 15 meters in all directions from Nura's position, causing the speed and power of the medley of fireballs to wane.( Phoenix Sage lose -15 power/ -15 Speed). Nura would aim for his technique to cover any change in the direction of the fireballs even if the younger boy had chosen to try to have them avoid the mass of flames, and upon clashing the young Uchiha would see his issue. The overwhelming power of flames would cause the fireballs to return to sender, flying back towards the young Uchiha who had been behind them until they had reached their maximum travel distance of 30 meters. Nura's technique would not affect their formation, causing Tatuso to now become stuck in a trap of his own making.

As the fireballs continued back toward him, Nura would move forward until he had been 7 meters from the Uchiha. 3 meters in front of the boy a small, blue spark 5cm in size would roar to life before becoming a 15 tall explosion that would travel forward 10 meters at 90 speed. At the same time, Tatsuo would feel a crippling aura of killer intent taking over his form, causing his chakra and speed to decrease further. With the wild chain of techniques, Nura would continue onward keeping a meter distance from his own attack to ensure that Tatsuo had no room to escape. Nura would adjust his attacks accordingly should the Uchiha attempted to evade his attacks.

Battle Stuff:

Tatsuo watched as his fireballs made contact with a large sphere of flames, clicking his tongue. The fireballs wouldn't be able to reach their target, it seemed. What surprised him was that the fireballs, upon reaching the edge of the sphere, rebounded back at him. He took a side step 1 meter to his left to avoid the foremost ball, slipping through the space between harmlessly while the balls continued traveling 6 more meters behind him before releasing their 1 meter explosions.

But Nurai was now approaching, and Tatsuo had to act. Using the seals that he had prepared previously, he spews forth a massive dragon head 10 meters in diameter as soon as Nurai reaches 7 meters distance, blasting right through the inferno cremation at 115 power and speed (placing it on cooldown) and heading straight toward the Shinkou to engulf him in flames, prepared to adjust the dragon's trajectory if needed. He wasn't about to let this man underestimate him. While his dragon head is surging forth, Tatsuo weaves two more seals in preparation for his next move, watching his opponent closely with the red eye of his sharingan.

Tatsuo must have caught the older boy off guard, because he made no move to escape the advance of his dragon head, suffering 115 damage in severe burns. Seeing an opportunity to take the upper hand, Tatsuo backstepped 3 meters at 70 speed and activated the jutsu he had prepared previously as an immediate follow up, interlocking his fingers in front of his chest and unleashing a blazing stream of fire that extended into a 30 meter long, 20 meter wide cone at 85 speed and power. (The width of the cone will be at 7 meters where Nurai is currently standing, and extends 20 meters behind him to its full width). If Nurai attempted to escape to the left or right, Tatsuo would simply turn his head to follow his movement. He noticed that the power up he had activated before had now waned, and his fire wasn’t as intense as it was in the previous attack - no matter, he would just keep hitting this man with all he had.

While the fire blast raged on, Tatsuo wove four more seals and spawned two clones, each two meters from his left and right. The clones would begin weaving seals of their own, Clone A activating Lightning Beast Tracking Fang and spawning a chained hound construct 3 meters in front of it (Speed/Power 90), while Clone B activated the Coiling Dragon technique, an aura of electricity surrounding it at twelve inches’ thickness while three dragon heads grew from it each with a width of 30 centimeters (Speed/Power 90). Both clones held their techniques ready for the moment Nurai stepped out of the flames, and would act as a line of defense, attacking Nurai should Tatsuo fail to keep him within the fire.

The fire would begin to lick the body of the Shinkou male but not without merit as he smiled and continued to move forward, the heat of the flames not doing what the child had thought it would do. Instead of stopping he continued forward, which probably was not what the child had thought but that was no longer his concern. He would continue forward watching the child as they brought their hands together and inhaled, probably about to perform a fire based ninjutsu if the current trend would follow. Smirking he would push his right hand forward, collecting a mass of raw power through his muscles before creating a sonic disruption that would cause an extreme drop of pressure of the area that would expand in a 20 meter radius in all directions at the speed of 95. This sonic vibration would effortlessly move through the attack that had been coming at Nurai, and would assault the young male before he could try to retreat. The sudden drop in pressure would cause the boy to begin to lose the sensation of control within his own hands before he could finish the hand seals he would be performing.. The wave itself would continue to pass through the area around Tatsuo until it had reached its full 20 meter range. Stopping in his tracks he would bring both arms up to form an X-shaped defensive stance as he hardened his body to take the full brunt of the fire. Remaining calm he would tank the full brunt of the fire and once it finished he would remain standing and hold his right hand up. The fight lost its luster or maybe some outer force caused him to see the fight as beneath him. Either way he would announce to the proctor of his refusal to continue and hereby forfeit without saying much else. Choosing to leave the way he came, he would begin walking out but kept his wits about him in the event his opponent chose a less...than kosher tactic.

[Nura is forfeiting said match will make wc claims later]

Tatsuo stared as the older male didn't flinch at his flames, instead walking straight through them. As he approached, Tatsuo felt a destabilizing shift in the air. He couldn't be sure what it was exactly, but whatever it was was definitely coming from Nurai. He kept up the blaze for as long as he could, and when it finished, there was Nurai standing as though he had simply braced himself against it. It was going to take a lot more for Tatsuo to knock him down - but as he tried to think of his next move, he saw the red haired man's hand raise into the air. He had stopped his advance, only to declare that he was forfeiting the match. Tatsuo's brow furrowed in confusion. He was obviously a strong fighter, why would he just give up? The Uchiha watched as Nurai turned and exited the arena, the onlooking crowd likely just as confused as he was. But as much as it was confusing, it was also frustrating. This was not how Tatsuo wanted to win. It didn't prove anything. The man had just been playing with him. Sighing heatedly, Tatsuo clicked his tongue and shoved his hands into his pockets, exiting the arena on the opposite side to Nurai. There was nothing to celebrate here. Just another match to prepare for.
