He'd already be far under ground level.
Why? :lol. Comparing what happened with a giant boss summon doesn't work since the boss summon is far heavier than the Raikage. Not to mention he used Yomi Numa (but not as wide) against Human Path and he wasn't even close to being completely submerged. Black Panther takes a handsign and then the lighting starts to form around his body in pretty much an instant. Unless Yomi Numa can sink him before he can make a hand sign then there's pretty much no way that Yomi Numa takes him down.
v1 Bee said his fastest attack was only ever dodged by his brother prior to Sasuke dodging it. We don't know if v1 Ay did that or v2 Ay. I already know v2 Ay runs circles around v1 Bee. And I am not saying he's using a small scale Yomi Numa, I'm saying he's using a large scale on like the one used on Manda. That means the 20 meters between him and Raikage is pretty much a swamp the entire distance. Not only does he have to get out by literally climbing out after he negates all the Swamp above him with BL (not sure how this works) but he'd also have to negate the swamp in front of him until the 20 meter distance to Jiraiya. Then there's the fact that he'd have to cover that distance while being lit on fire with Oil+Katon.
Then you have a point with the B thing. As for the rest:
-Lightning spreads throughout Doton and breaks it apart kind of, so it'd do something similar to the swamp, allowing him to get out.
-Not sure why he'd have to negate the entire swamp when he could just jump from where he is currently located and then get away from the swamp altogether.
-I'll address the on fire thing below.
Well we can't really say how IC Jiraiya fights in this situation. Against Orochimaru he started with summon+Yomi Numa, against Itachi/Kisame he also manipulated the location with toad stomach. So we can't really say he's unlikely to start off a fight by changing the location of the area, and Yomi Numa is one way of doing so.
Fair point.
No, that's not how Katon works in the manga. Flame is not something which keeps burning unless that's how the technique works due to outside reasons. Itachi's Katon vs Sasuke gave burns but it didn't keep burning, Sasuke's Katon vs Orochimaru only gave burns, Sasuke's Katon Dragon on Itachi's arm only gave burns. It's rather obvious that having something to keep burning doesn't mean it will keep burning. Flames are not kept alive by Manda, the oil is what kept them alive for quite some time. The flame is alive because the oil is on the Raikage and the flame is burning on it, and Bunta can just keep throwing out more and more oil if he wills. Then there's the fact that Bunta also has Water, and guess what happens when you pour Water into grease fire? A massive inferno. And it's not supposed to burn him until he can no longer fight, it's supposed to burn him to the point where he can't make it in time to stop Jiraiya's SM. He isn't pain resistant like his dad, or at least we don't know if he is, so he's not going to be fighting while set ablaze.
Uh, wrong. Katon has shown to light things on fire multiple times in this Manga. Most prominently when Itachi lights his Shuriken on fire with Katon. Kakuzu also lit some

on fire with his Katon. Didn't Madara partially light Hashirama's forest on fire too? Yes, he did. It works just like normal flame does.
Oil is only used as the fuel for the fire. Fire burns the oil and gets stronger just how it'd burn any other type of fuel it would use to burn brighter, bigger and hotter. Sure, Bunta can throw oil if he wants, but by the time Bunta has already finished using Toad Oil Flame Bullet, Raikage will be out of the swamp, back on solid ground, and capable of easily dodging anything else Bunta decides to throw at him. And I'm not sure why Bunta would attempt to throw water in that fire when all he'd do is make it explode, catching him in the process. Only thing is, he dies while the Raikage lives.
And that flame isn't going to burn forever even if you were right about it only burning Manda because of the oil.

We get a zoomed out view of the battlefield and there is no sign of the flame despite it only happening several dozen meters away from Bunta's location. Raikage easily resists and then shanks Jiraiya. Not sure why you are talking about pain tolerance here when he shouldn't feel pain if the attack is too weak to hurt him. Pain is felt when you take damage to some part of the body. If the flame can't damage him, then he takes no pain. Not to mention he has chakra armor on.
Not to mention IMO it's ridiculous to assume that the more durable father can't resist something that his less durable son should be able to resist. But it matters not.
