Season 1! Episode 1! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs Metal Gear Solid! Two ninjas who've taken down some tough customers with their katanas are clashing blades in this Death Battle! Who will win: the radical reptile, or the cybernetic soldier?
Intro[]
Wiz: Picture this: you just so happened to be living your life the way God intended.
Boomstick: And suddenly: BAM! Over the course of ooze spilling in your sewer or getting kidnapped and turned into cyborg, you're a sword-wieldin', monster slicin', ninja!
Wiz: W-Who would possibly have to go through that?!
Boomstick: Maybe... Leonardo, the leader of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Wiz: I meant- *sighs* and Raiden, the experimented soldier recruited under FOXHOUND.
Boomstick: He's Wiz, and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: and it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a DEATH BATTLE!
Leonardo[]
Boomstick: Oh, oh! Where does this origin story start? Maybe in the depths of Japan, or like, a deserted Fiji rainforest.
Wiz:...N-no. This origin story takes place in a New York pet store.
Boomstick:...WHAT?!
Wiz: Boomstick, he's a turtle. Anyways, Leonardo was just an ordinary turtle in a pet store with his 3 younger brothers, Raphael, Michangelo, and Donatello.
Boomstick: And then they were adopted by a man named... Ham Mat Yoshi? What the hell kinda name is that?
Wiz: It's Hamato Yoshi, A.K.A. Master Splinter.
Boomstick: Yeah, but Rat-sensei and his pets weren't always the way they are now. TL;DR, Yoshi ran into this this weird Terminator-style robot, stalked it, got caught, fought the robots, and him and his turtles got covered in ooze. Ewww.
Wiz: Yeah. When he fought the Kraangdroids-
Boomstick: Kraang-what?
Wiz: The "Terminator robots".
Boomstick: Ohhhh, OK.
Wiz: they dropped a canister of Mutagen, and - like the name suggests - mutated Hamato and the turtles, and after years of martial arts training and studying, they became the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Boomstick: COWABUNGA!!
Wiz: Leonardo now sports a blue mask, dual-blade katanas-
Boomstick: and a love for one of Italy's greasy, edible delicacies: pizza.
Wiz: Leonardo is a calm and capable fighter. Over the many reincarnations, he's always been the leader of the group, and the slayer of Splinter's arch-nemesis: the Shredder.
Boomstick: Yeah, Leo's strong enough to slice through solid steel and push against the biting force of a Tyrannosaurous rex, he's fast enough to dodge lightning from the mystic ninjas, and he's smart to become a blacksmith and a...what the hell is a Jonin?
Wiz: A Jonin is a master of the ninja arts.
Boomstick: Holy shit! You mean he mastered the art of being a ninja?! He should write a book about it. Fuck you, Sun Tzu! "The Art of Ninja" totally sounds cooler than "The Art of War".
Wiz: He's mastered Ninjistu and its many forms, including Taijustu, the body technique, Kenjustsu, the art of Japanese swordsmanship, Shinobi-iri, techniques of stealth and infiltration, and Boryaku, the art of strategy.
Boomstick: Leonardo has shown time and time again why he's the leader of his brothers and a Jonin. Step to him and you'll be Shell Shocked.
Leonardo: "That's right! We're the Turtles of Justice!"
Raiden[]
Wiz: Born on a rainy day in-
Boomstick: AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!
Wiz: Liberia, actually. Jack was adopted by Solidus Snake after he murdered his parents.
Boomstick: Then, ol' godpappy Solidus Snake raised Jack as a child soldier, and fought in Liberia's civil war in '89. *sighs* I miss the 80's.
Wiz: Jack experienced extreme hardships through this war. Along with other children, he was shown Hollywood action films for "image training" and given a concoction that consisted of food and gunpower containing toluene to be more controllable.
Boomstick: Damn. And I thought what my ex-wife did to me was horrible.
Wiz: Lemme guess. She left you?
Boomstick: She left me.
Wiz: *places a hand on Boomstick's back* I'm sorry, man.
Boomstick: It's cool.
Wiz: Anyways, during his time, Jack became a killing machine. Armed with a gun at just 6, and a knife at 10, he was given the alias "Ripper", and Solidus later placed him in a relief center after the war.
Boomstick: Only to be taken out later, and sent to AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!
Wiz: Jack later fell into the hands of the Patriots who experimented with his body, and they turned him into a deadly ninja cyborg.
Boomstick: HOLY SHIT! HE LOOKS SO COOL!!!
Wiz: Not only did his appearance change, his strength, speed, and stamina did as well.
Boomstick: Yeah, Jack now wields the Murasama. This sword is so strong, it can penetrate nanomachines. Specifically, Senator Armstrong's.
Wiz: Senator Armstrong's nanomachines are so strong that they harden in response to physical trauma.
Boomstick: Yeah, the best cheat move of all time. Say it with me kids: "Nanomachines, son."
Wiz: Raiden is strong enough to match a Metal Gear Ray, fast enough to break Mach 2 while running, and took a blow from Senator Armstrong's hardened nanomachines.
Boomstick: But this isn't even his final form. Get him pissed off enough and he'll obtain a menancing red aura and enter his Jack the Ripper mode.
Wiz: Jack's Ripper form increases all physical stats, but more specifically he's stronger and has an unsatiable bloodlust.
Boomstick: Yeah, remember earlier how we said he got the nickname "Ripper" as a kid? We weren't joking. And now ya know why.
Wiz: Raiden really is the deadliest cyborg ninja soldier.
Boomstick: Three things you'd never think you'd hear in one setence.
Raiden: "I'll pick my own name...and my own life...I'll find something worth passing on."
Intermisson[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all.
Boomstick: IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
Fight[]
Location - New York City, New York
An oversized mutant turtle is seen taking on an army of Kraangdroids in an alleyway. He is wielding dual blade katanas and a blue headband around his eyes. This turtle was Leonardo. Leonardo is seen fighting and destroying Kraangbots. After he and his brothers planned to split up to take the barrage of Kraangbots down, he decided to take the Northern area of New York City. He is swinginf his sword, absolutely decimating Kraangbots. If he didn't decapitate them, he chopped their arms off, and sliced them in half.
SHINK!
Leonardo: Phew! I think that's the last of the-
SHINK!
Leonardo: What was that?!
Leonardo turns around to see a mysterious figure, splitting a Kraangdroid in half. This figure was Raiden. But, to Leo, this figure had appeared to be-
Leonardo: ANOTHER KRAANGDROID!
Raiden: What th-
Leonardo runs towards Raiden and slashes at him. Raiden dodges back and takes out his sword.
Raiden: The hell's your problem? And what the hell are you?
Leonardo: I'll tell you what my problem is. I'm not letting you Kraangdroids take over the world! As for the latter, I'm Leonardo SplinterSon, leader of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and I'm gonna kick your butt!
Raiden: Whatever you say, kid. Looks like I'm gonna have get out this the hard way.
FIGHT!
Part 1: Machine Slayin' Mutants
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW7QU72Eo2s
Leonardo and Raiden both exert a battle cry, as they are seen dashing at each other. Their blades connect on the spot, an high-pitched CLANK! could be heard from each swing. The aggression from each swing told them both one thing that kept ringing through both of their brains: "Only one of us is leaving here alive."
Leonardo: You don't look much like a Kraangdroid now that I think about it-
Leonardo then swipe kicks Raiden, catching him off guard. He trips and Leonardo jumps and hits Raiden with an aerial dropkick to the chest.
Leonardo: -but you sure do fight like one.
Raiden is seen flying into a pile of garbage bins. He gets up, dusts himself off, and sniffs.
Raiden: Ugh! Great! Now I smell like a pile of steaming dogshi-
Raiden had no time to finish as he saw Leonardo charge at him. Raiden held up his sword and slices and dices Leonardo, then fishes the combo with a shot from his-
C-C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!!
Leonardo blocks the bullet with his shell, and he's go inside of it and starts spinning at rapid speeds like a pinball. Raiden's jaw drops before he's hit with an onslaught of attacks from Leonardo's shell. Raiden is flung against a wall as a result from the attacks.
Raiden: Getting my ass kicked by some strange ass mutant turtle thing. Yeah, definitely not how I planned this Thursday.
Raiden once again gets up from the ground, this time preparing for Leonardo's next shell attack. Leonardo is seen propelling himsel, outside of his shell, facing backwards in Raiden's direction. Raiden kicks Leo's shell which sends him flying.
Raiden then gives a small smirk as he proceeds to dash at Mach 2 towards Leonardo. He catches up and enters Zandatsu, otherwise known as Blade Mode.
Raiden slashes Leonardo with a flurry of combo slashes, some of which hit his shell, others pierce through his flesh. Raiden then pulls out a grenade and pulls the pin.
Leonardo: Oh crap!
Raiden throws the grenade and Leo enters his shell as the grenade explodes. It had enough force to send Leonardo backwards, blood dripping. He's in critical condition. He stands up, but holds his arm. He was going to need to stall. He uses his Intonjutsu as Raiden runs to him and he suddenly vanishes.
Raiden: Where the fuck did he go?!
The camera pans to Leonardo's current location. He is seen on a random building's rooftop, using his Healing Hands technique. He then sees Raiden run up the building and he prepares for Raiden's blow. But Raiden jumps from off the side of the building, and generates electricity from his hands, which he then turns to fists. Leonardo swings his katana and chops his left arm off.
Raiden: Damn it! Not again!
Leonardo: Sorry, but I've got brothers to go see.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdZ3ZuP8-eM
With that, Leonardo raises his sword to finish the fight, but hesistates when he sees Raiden glow a menacing red aura. This was Raiden's Ripper mode.
"Jack the Ripper": Hahahahahaha! It's time for Jack the Ripper to LET 'ER RIP!
Part 2: The Immortal Turtle vs Jack the Ripper[]
Leonardo knew this was: Raiden's last ditch effort. And he got the feeling that this ditch effort was going to leave him with more than a couple of scratches. Leonardo whipped out his Mystic Ōdachi.
The 2 ninjas speed at each other at speeds faster than the eye could see. They swung their blades back and forth, each strike having a more aggressive impact. Leonardo created a portal and tackled Raiden through it.
Location - Empire State Building: New York City, New York
The portal teleported them to the one of the rectangular layers of the Empire State Building. They knew that this was going to be it. The battle who determines who leaves...and who doesn't.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3472Q6kvg0
Jack the Ripper: You know, I gotta tell ya that I wasn't planning to do this shit today. But, damn if you ain't givin' me a run for my money.
Leonardo: Same, dude. At the same time, only one of us can leave.
Jack the Ripper: AND IT'S GONNA BE JACK THE RIPPER! HAHAHAHHA!
Jack the Ripper ran towards Leonardo with a violent charge, stabbing Leonardo with every other strike. But, Leonardo wasn't backing down now. He spin-kicked Raiden back to the other side of the building. Leonardo then jumped up and quickly descended down towards Raiden just as the latter was getting back up, and the former unleashed a flurry of kicks onto Raiden, knocking him back down. That pissed him off more.
Jack the Ripper: GRRRRRRAHHHHHH!!! Enough of this bullshit! Why won't you die?!
Leonardo didn't respond. He just opened another portal, which caused Raiden to charge at him.
Jack the Ripper: STOP WITH THE PORTAL CRAP!
Leonardo, still being calm and collected, dodged his attempted charge and kicked Raiden straight into the portal. Leonardo created another portal, which Raiden flew out of, and Leonardo attempted to slice Raiden with his ōdachi.
But he missed.
Leonardo: What?!
Jack the Ripper: My turn.
Raiden kicked Leonardo through the portal with a cresent kick. and sliced Leonardo's right arm clean off. He flew back into the portals, each time Raiden taking off another limb. His left leg next, followed by his left arm, and lastly his right leg. And the portal from the left side closed after what was left of Leonardo flew through the right portal one last time. Raiden slashed his sword over 100 times in 5 seconds, dicing Leonardo into minced meat. He then powered down from his Ripper mode.
Raiden: Didn't wanna do that, kid. Should've just let me leave.
K.O.![]
Results[]
Boomstick: Yeah, that kinda makes sense.
Wiz: I could see why you'd say that. But Leonardo wasn't out of this battle as much as you thought.
Boomstick: Yeah, Raiden breakin' Mach 2, creating lightning and dodgin' bullets and rockets is cool and all but Leonardo has dodged lightning.
Wiz: The fastest bullet has travelled about 2,800 miles per hour. Impressive, however, we all know lightning is a hell of a lot faster than bullets.
Boomstick: But the question is: "How MUCH faster?"
Wiz: About 100,000 times faster.
Boomstick: "Oh, but Raiden can create lightning, that means he can dodge it, too."
Wiz: That's a possibility, but we've never seen him done it. However, that doesn't mean that possibility is completely out of the picture. So, we'll just call it even there.
Boomstick: And strength went to Raiden. Raiden has thrown a Metal Gear RAY, which is 20 meters tall, and weighs over 500 pounds. Man, we were not shittin' you when we said his strength changed after the robot transformation.
Wiz: And let's compare their trump cards: Leonardo's Mystic Ōdachi and Raiden's Ripper Form. Leonardo's ōdachi allowed him to create portals, so that's a pretty good hack, right?
Boomstick: Nope. While it is awesome, Raiden's experience, strength, killing ability and healing factor could really keep him in the battle for a while.
Wiz: It just seems like he had a advantage for anything Leonardo could throw at him.
Boomstick: It seems like fighting Raiden was too Leo-hard-o for this turtle.
Wiz: Why am I friends with you?
Boomstick: O-MG, Wiz. My puns aren't an ooze-fest, they're a real ripper.
Wiz: The winner is Raiden.
Raiden - Winner
+ + Experience (Raiden is 32; Leonardo is 16/17)
+ Bloodlust
+ Strength
+ Durability
+ Has a Healing factor
+ VERY Slight edge in arsenal
= Possibly equal in speed
- Intelligence (PTSD + Not much of a strategist)
- - Hax (time travel BS is non-canon)
Leonardo - Loser
+ + Hax (fucker could create portals)
+ Intelligence (probably not by much)
+ He CAN heal
= Possibly equal in speed
- Bloodlust
- Strength
- Durability
- Arsenal (Not by much)
- - BUT his healing takes time
- - Experience (Raiden is double Leonardo's age)

Trivia[]
- This is WDYC325's first battle.
- Unfortunately, he sucks fuck at writng, and is very uneducated in terms of media. (For example, he knows characters like Sonic or Mega Man, however he's only played about 2 or 3 games from each character. So if anyone's willing to help with research, I'd be welcome to accept, and you WILL be credited in the 'Trivia' and 'Category' section.)
- The comparison between Leonardo and Raiden are that they were both regularly designed organisms, but their appearance was altered by organization groups (Kraang and Patriots), they have fought villians who crave greed and can receive musclar strength physically and literally (Shredder and Armstrong). They are now ninjas who wield kitanas and kill technologically advanced enimies for a living.
- Composite Leonardo will recieve all feats from the 1987 show, 1997 show, the 2003 show, the 2012 show, and the 2018 show.
- He will also recieve feats from the 2007 TMNT movie.
- Feel free to wager and critique in the comments.
