Shinra Kidame had won his first fight. He got a respite to sit back and relax before being thrust into the second one. And against someone he had met during his mission a while back. That puppet user who saved them from the twins back then. Ranta Larizzai, someone from SUnagakure, now living in Konohagakure.

Shinra tried his best to learn anything about his oppoenent before the match. Mostly as to why he got a free pass to the second fight. But there wasn't much on the person who normally had a blank stare on his gob. Shinra cupped his own chin, resting an elbow on his other arm folded across his chest. In contemplative thought he wondered just what he could do against this person and his puppets.

Shinra knew next to nothing about the guy and had already shown some of his tactics in the first fight. He was at a strategic disadvantage in this fight. But he didn't have time to wallow on that. Shinra walked through the locket room, gathering up his pack of string, his scrolls, and his chakra blades. Tucking them away against his hips (four miniature scrolls), on the small of his back (chakra blades and wire), and two medium sized scrolls (hung over his back). Taking another look over his attire and fixing his eyepatch in the mirror, Shinra walked out into the arena where they were finished making repairs from what he did to the ground before.

After having collapsed it, they needed a few earth users to fix things with their jutsu and make it seem like nothing happened, though the walls were still pretty dusty from all the rocks that crumbled and flew. The crowds cheered as Shinra walked out and stood at the ready, waiting for Ranta.
