Claus was standing in front of the five clan heads from the neutral side. Each clan head eyeing Claus carefully trying to figure him out. "You've have sent your men to each of us clan head. Now that we are here we can talk." one of the clan heads spoked up first but when he was about to continue "Bah talking with no actions is for pacifists, so let us compare blade skills." the clan head with the scar on his left eye commented. The rest of the clan heads looked at each other and nodded.
"Let us compare." Claus nonchalantly said. Making hand motion for the viewers to spread out and give them space. Claus then took his sword drawing stance one hand on the sword handle and the other on the sheath.
The Clan head with the scar smiled gleefully he can sense the dangerous aura of his opponent. Putting his hands on his two blades he also took his stance. "Date Masamune, the one-eyed dragon." He introduced himself.
Claus narrowed his eyes but the smile on his face for battle didn't disappear. "Claus." He replied.
Claus closed his eyes then seconds later...he appeared in front of Date! the sword is drawn coming down towards Date who drew his swords and cross them like an x to counter the strike. And it did block it but Claus increased his power causing the floor underneath Date was standing the be cracked and destroyed. 'Interesting!' The clan heads watched Claus and Date went at each other both flickering and only leaving behind a destroyed ground and deep sword cut marks.
"Are you done testing me?" Claus reappeared where he stood before and so did Date who had a huge grin and his face. "Of Course! I underestimated you lad...Now It's real!" With that sentence, he disappeared and appeared in front of Claus with his swords leaving after images and gave off the illusion of him having multiple swords.
Claus blocked each strike that was aimed for his vitals causing sparks to appear each time their swords touched.
"What I expected of Date-dono! The lad's getting pushed back!" one of the Clan head said. "Yes but look closely, " another said pointing towards Claus who barely looked serious. "Ho ho interesting one we have here." another joined in and stroked his beard.
