I quickly used the handsigns for the summoning jutsu before summoning three of my beasts that could fight at this level, Akasha, Kiba and Ren. Kiba and Ren weren't directly powerful enough to fight against foes this strong unlike Akasha but their abilities made them nightmares to fight even at this level. Kiba's lightning cloak ability gave him speed arative power that even my sensei said could threaten Shizuo a degree. Rens ability oherhand was capable of turning the enviro into a toxie that only those with immunity to it or teiques to suppress it could survive within.-

  Akasha was my most dangerous beast however as she could teleport at very little cost AND she hysically powerful enough that my sensei said that she could likely kill most Jonins in a direct frontation.

  "It's time to hunt." I spoke as my beasts appeared and their rexed and curious emotions instantly transformed into a predatory and violent state.

  "I almost feel bad for these guys, almost." Tsunade said as she saw my sele.

  The enemies didn't just stand there though as o was clear we weren't going without a fight all hell broke loose. Senbons rained down while everyone here burst into a in their own ways.

  Shizune and I flickered to the sides as my sensei charged forwards and my beasts dealt with the senbons in their own ways. Akasha vanished and reappeared in the same instant behind one of the ambushers with her mouth already closing on their head. Ren glowed a sickly green as a toxic mist rose from it's body corroding the falling senbon to nothing before they could even strike. Kiba burst iricity and repelled the ons using the porizing effect of the lightning chakra before blurring towards the ambushers.

  I myself left after images as I circled two of the ambushers using body flicker. One of them started weaving handsigns and a wave of water shot out of their hands c a wide area. It retty smart as close quarters body flickering like what I was doing could be disrupted by area of effect style attacks. Unlike what they were clearly expeg however I didn't dodge but directly switched my taijutsu stao bear form and threw out a punch at the wave.

  "BOOM!"

  The air itself around my fist pressed from the sheer force of the blow befetting unched forward at a very fast speed through the wave and into one of the ambushers. That particur shinobi barely had time to widen their eyes in shock before the air crushed them as it forced it's way forward regardless of an obstacles in it's way. I rexed my body after that while releasing a steamy breath of air. The bear form utilizes my entire body and as a result was the most devastating in terms of power but at the same time also the most tiring.-

  Despite that I chose to use it at this moment for a single reason, intimidation fay sensei had long expio me the importani in battle. If my ehought of me as an uable threat they wouldn't be able to perform their best. It was a subscious factor that could mean the differeween life ah. My attack just now turned someone only slightly differing in strength to the remaining ambusher to paste so you image the sort of image that ts into their head about fag me. The ambusher started rapidly weaving handsigns while creating distance from me before their chest swelled and a giant fireball flew out of their mask.

  'Sage art: S rush.' I thought as I supercharged mudslide jutsu with sage chakra and spat out a torrent of mud to flict with the fireball.

  "FWOOSH! CRACKLE!"

  The water in the mud cshed with the fire release while the earth in it hardened and shattered from the heat but a csh of chakra like this was a very bad idea against me. A fact the ambushers was clearly aware of as they cut off the jutsu before flickering away to avoid the massive amount of mud from hitting them.

  'Sage art: Malefic scorpion mist.' I thought as I switched to using Rens poisonous chakra ability supercharged with sage chakra excreted from my sores.

  Immediately a miasma of bck toxin exploded from my body and rapidly began to kill off the surroundings like it was decay given visible form a loose on the world. I wasn't the biggest fan of this jutsu because it killed off the patch of area I used it on but I could yself with the knowledge that thanks to the natural energy iack it would just regrow strohan ever.-

  The ambusher retreated further and further from me as the cloud of trated death expanded more and more as it was fueled by my massive chakra reserves and endless sage chakra from my body stantly making more. Once I deemed the size big enough I cut off the flow of energy and started drawing the miasma bae causing it to deo a semisolid state around me using nothing but pure chakra trol and my e to the attack. From the outside I looked as though a demon had maed as my form was obscured in a thiky bess that was eight feet tall and only barely humanoid.-

  'Sage art: Malefic destroyer'

  If the ambusher wasn't frightened before I was willing to bet that they were now if the tenseness in their body and dited pupils were anything to go by. That didn't stop me from charging them though as I wao remove them from this battle. Meanwhile iher part of the battleground my beasts were w with Shizune and my seo deal with the other ambushers. Akasha was keeping them tense as she prowled with her teleportation serving as a factor of uability that they o watch.

  Kiba was harassing them with fast but light attacks that made it hard to focus and Ren had already covered the whole area in a thin green mist of poison that the ambushers were suppressing with mixed results. Shizune and my sensei had already created a vae for for Rens standard poison and thus were entirely ued by it. The ambushers were suppressing the poison in their system but there was no stopping it as it seeped in through every breath, every pore and even their eyes. Their deaths were only a matter of time at this point and they k as they fought as viciously as possible.-

  Despite all of this however not once did any of them genuinely have any killing i which showed a serious amount of ditioning and training to have so much loyalty. My sensei got hit with a dirty trick as all of the ambushers ripped open their shirts before slitting their skin to bleed out. Not in a fatal way but to stir up her phobia to take her out of the fight entirely. It worked too as she froze up allowing the ambushers to put her and Shizune on the back foot as she wrestled with her emotions.
