It was common practice for allies to compete and collaborate to improve each other. Kumogakure in the interest of improving it's relations has openly invited Konoha's shinobi to one of their clan's weekly events. The Yanki clan were known for being a loud and rowdy. On Fridays specifically, the clan would host an afternoon sparring event, to have wild brawls with the intention of getting hurt. The mass and battles which would happen was all done with the intention of providing ample training for the clans and those who participates medical knowledge.

On this fine Friday, it'd be a rather exciting guest appearance. Though it was only two genin, the Uchiha clan were highly regarded in their skills. This little shake up could be the perfect way for not only the villages to improve relations, but perhaps even allow a stronger bond between the future of Yanki and Uchiha. A wise clan always kept it's prospective allies in mind.

The Uchiha wouldn't have a hard time finding their mission target. The Colosseum was a spectacle of it's own, a massive stone structure and the sounds which boomed from it were impossible to miss. The crowd and excitement only growing as the time of reckoning grew closer upon them. Most voices couldn't quite reach the same boon as the Yanki, so each member roared with might of multiple people.

One Yanki member waiting at the entrance anxiously pacing, as they're waiting for the 'guest stars'. He wanted to get a good spot and to get his own hype and cheer on. So as the sounds of excitement erupted occasionally, he'd turn to the massive building he in a sense stood guard too.

[attr="class","Di"] [attr="class","Dim"]Don't be afraid of a little scrap! [attr="class","Dimit"] ❝ The **** you want? Now this mission was more up her alley. Combat-orientated missions were something Setsuko was more interested in not because she was particularly skilled or anything, but rather because she loved to tussle and be feral with people. It let her let off steam and take out her anger issues on others without much consequence. So when she was picked for this mission saying she was excited was an understatement. The smile on her face and the energy she had upon their travels to Kumogakure was an odd experience for anyone who knew her. Even more so for her cousin who was accompanying her on this mission. As they were getting closer to the meeting area Setsuko couldn't contain her excitement and began talking, "Don't be surprised if I start just biting people so you might have to keep track of me and defend me if I lose track of myself." It was advice for Kai since she wouldn't be the type to think much about strategy or anything and was one who just did things. Kai would need to be the brains of this operation because frankly, she wasn't going to be the planner of this mission. Her instincts for combat tended to blind her from danger too much.

[Uchiha Kai]

Kai wandered up next to Setsuko. He crossed his arms and glanced over the colosseum. Not the first time he'd been in Kumogakure for a competition. Probably wouldn't be the last.

"You guys can't get enough of me, huh?" He teased over towards the Yanki. In a surprise twist, he patted his chest, showing off that he still had the Yanki clan shell of Kumogakure under his armor- The same one he'd been given for the chuunin exams.

"It's nice to be here again. Always fresher this high up..." He muttered, barely to himself as he looked over at Setsuko. He was glad he dragged this one along. The smile on her face made it all worth it. He knew, personally, the challenges most of his family faced, he was coming to terms with it.

And in a way, if he could do anything to help, he would. As long as it didn't cause him TOO much trouble...

Regardless, she spoke up about biting people, and Kai chuckled, offering her a smoke again. It was just part of what he did at this point, even if people shot it down. The smokes were cinnamon flavored- Delightful if actually taken- And more so then that? They were so well crafted they didn't have the same lung damaging properties as traditional cigarettes. Custom made, straight from Kusagakure.

"Try smoking. Can't open your mouth to bite people with one in your mouth." He pointed out wisely, before shaking his head.

"Don't worry though. This is going to be really fun. I can't wait to see some action..." He pulled the massive glaive off his back, which he didn't have for their boating mission.

This glaive was... Massive. Clearly a weapon of war- But he had given it an adjustment. The edge of the glaive, the blade end, had a rubber covering on it. This would mean he wouldn't cleave someones limbs off. You could fix a broken bone, but fixing a lost limb was a lot harder, and bruises were easier to heal than rippling blood loss.

"Just keep your eyes open. If I have to save your ass, you're never going to hear the end of it." He shot another tease at his cousin with a wink as he relaxed further, readying himself for the coming combat.

Even with the Yanki plate armor among Kai's decor, he'd still stand out in Kumogakure. Along with Setsuko only making the pair more noticeable. The Yanki at the door spotting them a little distance away and eagerly rubbing their hands together. That had to be the Uchiha he was expecting. "Finally." Though he'd not expect or know these specific Uchiha, so Kai showing off the armor was quite the surprise. "Heh, it's just another Friday for us." He'd reply as this little event wasn't for the Uchiha, it was a regular affair with an open sort of invite.

"Yeah-Yeah, it's even fresher at the arena." The man would state quickly gesturing the two of them to follow him. They hadn't introduced themselves so he didn't really need to either? Wasn't him they'd be fighting after all and it seemed the two wanted to converse among themselves. He was glad it wasn't him in the arena either, as he'd glance back at the glaive than forward down the path. Leading them out to the arena, surrounded by a stone stadium of cheering Yanki. 

Across the arena in the shade of a secondary entrance was two individuals who're mostly cloaked in shade. One kneeling unarmed and the other had a bat slung over their shoulder. Likely the true opponents of this international spar.
