Kumo
It had been a few hours since general RAAM started his campaign against the Kumo Nin and so far everything was progressing smoothly for him and his troop and with the aid of the krill, the shinobi and kunoichi hiding in the shadows were pick off easily.
He and his troop were able to capture many of the enemy shinobi and kunoichi with their sudden attack on the village. But soon they got their heads straight and started doing hit and runs in the village and blowing up the larger streets forcing his troops to take the small choke points of the alleys and small streets.
But a real headache was the other Jinchuriki that was impeding his forces from moving any further into the village. The one that they were dealing with was the Matatabi the two tailed demon cat.
RAAM then sent word to bring the brumoks forward to deal with the threat. Hopefully, they will be able to deal with the Nibi and they can continue on with the rest of the village.
The giant creature then appeared out of a huge emergence hole in the ground and walked out. When the beast saw the two-tailed cat it started to unleash a hellfire of bullet from the guns mounted on its hands.
The bullets seem to have a mild effect on the two-tailed flaming cat. But it did seem to shift its attention from the ground troops to the brumoks that were shooting at it. The two pilots on the brumoks saw that the bullets were having little to no effect decided to try the missiles cannon on the brumoks upper body.
The pilots got the order to use rockets they switched to the weapon and fire seven rockets right at the two-tailed cat. When the Rockets collided with the giant cat it sent it back onto some of the empty building that was behind it.
When RAAM saw the damage the rockets did to the tailed beast he orders the rest of the brumoks to open fire on the down cat with their rockets and they did. The barrage f heavy explosives created a large dust cloud that covers the entire cat. About after two minutes of none stop firing RAAM order the brumoks to stop firing and let the dust cloud settle.
When the dust settled the Locust saw a Blond woman on the ground unconscious in place of the giant cat was. RAAM then ordered some drones to take the woman to the other prisoners and then restarted his armies march to the inner part of the village.
As he and his army moved deeper into the village they saw that the Shinobi have entrenched themselves into certain areas of the village like the hospital, what looks like an academy and the armory also the main tower in the center of the village. The hospital and the Academy were the least protected of the three. So he orders his troop to attack those positions while he focuses on the tower.
Raikage Tower
"Form up on the base of the tower and make sure the barracks are strong and stable!" yelled the Raikage. The Raikage was a large man with bulging muscles, much like his brother and father. "Has Yugito Reported back yet?" The Raikage yelled to a nearby subordinate.
The lesser ninja sweated and replied "No the scouts that fell back stated that she was defeated by a giant monster and then captured by the enemy." said the now scared ninja.
The fourth Raikage looked like he was about to kill the ninja that just told him that Yugito his surrogate niece was defeated and captured by these monster and they had no way of retrieving her. He then punched the wall of the tower and formed it a massive spider crack from the amount of power he put into that punch.
"Get to the barracked and wait for the enemy to arrive then activate the traps we set up for them." said A to the ninja.
After the Ninja basically sprints away, A began to think of a way to retrieve Yugito after they push the enemy back out of the village. But A did not realize that this is not an enemy that can be beaten by shinobi tactics and that he would be lucky to make it out with at least half his forces.
RAAM POV
RAAM and his forces marched to the tower in the center of the village ready to bring it down. As he and his troops went deeper into the village they ran into a multitude of traps from trip wire to shrapnel. He was starting to get annoyed with how many were set up. They must have planted them before the flaming cat was defeated. As they continued their march he received word that the Hospital and the School fell to their forces.
With this news, he now has more troops at his disposal to take down the town and claim the village. So he sent out an order for all troops to converge on the tower in the center of the village.
When they approached the center of the village they came up with some weird looking rods in front of the barrack. As they got closer the rods started to light up, one of the drones went up to one of the rods as he got closer he was suddenly struck by lightning. The mass of electricity hit the drone and cooked him alive in a matter of seconds. This emulsion armor did nothing to protect him because it was extremely conductive.
More of the rods suddenly started to light up and shoot of lightning into his rank. Anyone in close groups usually chained the strike to his fellow drones. RAAM had enough of the rods and called for the boomers to take them out. The Boomers came forward. The boomer was a group of Locust that was larger and stronger than the average drone troop.
Usually, the Boomer is sent into a deal with an enemy that have entrenched themselves into an are so well that the drone cannot break through. Reason being is that the Boomers and grinders are the damage takers of the army. With their size bigger than a normal Locust they can take more punishment than everyone else. But there is a trade-off with the boomers and grinders and that tradeoff is that they are not too bright.
They are simpletons, they can only do simple tasks that are given to them. Such as pulling a cart or move something heavy. For soldier jobs, they are just instructed to point and shoot the weapon they are given. The boomers were given boom shots and the grinders were given the hand-cranked Gatling gun. When they were called up the commander or RAAM himself point to the enemies and then let them loose.
The boomer approached the rods with intent to destroy them so the advance can continue. When they approached the rods they kicked of lightning towards the boomers and hit them with the same force that hit the drones. The boomers stopped for a second then continued towards the rods. When they were a good distance near them they opened fire with their boom shots.
When the projectile explosive came in to contact with the rods they shook and rattled in place. The boomer continued their barrage of explosive shot until the lightning rods well and stopped operating. When all the lightning rods were dealt with RAAM gave the order for all units to converge on the tower.
The Raikage tower
Back at the barracked the Raikage and his shinobi are waiting for some of the scouts to report back on how the lightning rod defense was holding up. As they waited for the scouts the Raikage began to wonder where in the world did this enemy come from and how did no one in the elemental nations know about an enemy this advanced. Their armor and weapons are beyond anything they could ever hope to make.
Despite the advancements in technology around the elemental nations they always depended on chakra. Reason being is because anyone can use chakra and it was so versatile so there was not a reason to develop more into other areas. But he could see that decision is now coming back to bite them in the ass. But no use in thinking what could have been done and what should have been done.
Just as he was about to shout orders one of the scouts from the defense came running up looking very ragged. "Raikage-sama! The Lightning rod defense, the Hospital, and the Ninja Academy have all fallen and the enemy force is on its way!" said the scout.
The Raikage was stunned by this news. The Lightning rods were a form of village defense that was used when the village walls were breached. The prepose of them was to stop an enemy advance before they got too far into the village. The rods themselves were reinforced to the point only the Raikage himself or Tsunade Senju could destroy them.
Also to hear that the Academy and the Hospital have fallen as well did not help their chances to push this new enemy out of the village. He stopped himself before he went further down that path of thought. He knew he had to hold out here or the village will be lost and he and his ninja will have to look for help from the other Great Hidden Villages.
That was not an experience that he wanted to have during his time as the Raikage. But right now he had to focus on how to hold this position and push back the enemy. "Enemy sighted!" shouted a shinobi from the barracked.
"Alright everyone we need to hold here if we want any hope of pushing these freaks of nature out of our home!" shouted the Raikage. The shinobi and kunoichi started to move to their assigned positions and wait for the enemy. Some move towards the wall to pop over and launch a jutsu at the unknown enemy. While other moved back a bit to throw kunai with explosive tags attached to them over the wall.
The Raikage watch his soldiers move to their positions and wait for the enemy to arrive. He could not help but feel pride that his shinobi and kunoichi are going to great lengths to fight for there village and keep it from falling. But he knew that if they failed he would have to abandon the village and either seek help from the others or call a kage meeting in Iron Country, neither will happen and he will keep Kumo from falling.
