Chapter 40 - The beast unleashed!

Where is Anko-san?!

Where is she?!

I didn't know where to start, also didn't know that she could truly be a help. But, I didn't want to let that sliver of hope gone.

I recalled that she's one of the examiners, maybe she's in the arena?

Without thinking much further I sped up my step and flashed into the arena. I saw a purple-colored barrier covering a large part of the arena, and as I rushed towards it, the barrier shattered by the Jounins.

With my mind in less than a calm state, I brashly rushed straight in, that could also be attributed to the fact that I did not feel any threat from the second layer of the barrier. In fact, I felt that I can rush into it without any problem. And I did.

"How?!"

"That's the violet flame!"

"Impossible!"

I heard some shout, which I choose to ignore, but I can't help but think that they're delusional. That's a flame? I can't feel any heat at all from it, maybe it's just a strong illusion.

Inside the barrier, I saw the third Hokage,-Sarutobi Hiruzen- and an unknown man. He was pale and looked like a corpse with an androgynous appearance, he wore the Kazekage attire coupled with its hat.

The unknown man set his gaze toward me and a creepy grin showed from his mouth, disgusting!

Hokage-sama frowned seeing me and flickered toward me, he stood in front of me with his back facing me. "What are you doing here, kid?"

Maybe, I should tell him? He's called the professor for a reason after all. Thus I briefly told him about Ino's incident earlier, and a frown got deeper on his face.

"Enma."

"Okay okay, you owe me one, kid!"

I was surprised seeing the staff on the Hokage's hand changed its shape and talked, it... no, HE turned into a monkey with a tall and menacing physique. Enma was his name, his body, and his tail were covered by white fur which protruded from his sleeves and pants. Enma has long unkempt white hair that reached his back and long sideburns and a goatee. He wore a black suit with mesh armor underneath, over which he wears a sleeveless kimono-shirt with white fur trimmings, and markings reminiscent of tiger stripes on it, which is held closed by a red sash.

"Thank you!"

I felt a bit relieved when Enma, the monkey king, himself rushed into the place where Ino was reverse summoned. Which he assumed was the Ryuchi cave, and she promised to bring her into safety.

I just hope that he can make it...

With Ino's safety at least a bit assured, I was able to think calmly again, albeit with a massive worry weighed my c.h.e.s.t.

With a poof of smoke, Enma disappeared. And the place where he stood now was another monkey with a similar appearance as his, though the newcomer looked younger, leaner, and more playful compared to the menacing Enma.

"Yo, Wuhai here~"

Without further ado, Hiruzen formed a hand seal and Wuhai turned into a golden colored staff. "I'll replace my pa for a while, rest assured I'm more useful than he is~"

"Kukuku, nice... Just nice..." My attention was taken by the unknown man chuckle, I assumed that he's an enemy from the way Hokage-sama show some hostility and vigilance against him.

"You're more interesting than I thought..." That man scrutinized me from head to toe, I felt that I was n.a.k.e.d from the way he stared at me, which was why I instinctively moved behind Hokage-sama. My body shivered from his stare alone, he's dangerous! In more than one way!

"Orochimaru, stop with your creepy stare." Hokage-sama reprimanded him with a stern gaze. Yeah! Go for it, Hokage-sama! Show this Or-

"..."

"..."

Wait!

He's Orochimaru?

THAT Orochimaru?!

Wait wait wait, his Kazekage attire...

The snake earlier...

I quickly connect the dots and came to a conclusion. This bast*rd was attacking Konoha, he worked together with the Suna, and he's the SNAKE Sennin.

Unconsciously, I coldly stared at him and let out a massive bloodl.u.s.t. Which surprised the Hokage slightly, but he just showed a small smile on his wrinkled face toward me.

"Kukuku, don't... don't stare me like that, I might not be able to hold myself..." The smile on Orochimaru's face bloomed and turned into a weird grin, his body shivered, and his hand flashed as he formed several hand-seals.

"Aaaah... [Kuchiyose: Edo Tensei]!"

Three coffins summoned by Orochiwarui. [1]

Just then, as the three coffins were surfaced from the ground, A white blur flashed and struck at Orochimaru's back. Unfortunately, that snake b*stard got a good reflex and able to avoid the attack. But the white blur did not stop and continued to strike at the coffins, destroying them in the process.

A big shadow suddenly loomed over us, and a giant-sized toad landed on the arena.

The white blur flashed onto the top of the giant toad and stood on top of it, he took a weird pose and shouted. "The great Jiraiya is here, worry not Sensei, the snake will be chopped clean."

Orochimaru looked pissed, he jumped then bite his thumb and slammed his hand to the ground.

"[Kuchiyose no Jutsu: Manda]!"

*BAM*

Another giant-sized snake slithered and immediately struck the toad as they apparently recognized each other.

Seeing a snake, my eyes twitched. Something inside me triggered. My worry resurfaced once more, what if Enma did not make it? What if...

I stopped thinking and looked at the true perpetrator of this sh*tty things, Orochimaru and his snakes!

So what if you're huge?

Did you proud of that?

Know the true meaning of COLOSSAL!!!

"[Chō Baika no Jutsu]" My body enlarged, literally turned into a mountain-sized giant, with around 150 feet height.

Though I can't maintain this state for long, half a minute at best, I will use that half f*cking minute to make a snake skewer. And to do that, I need fire, and that's what I have.

The snake -Manda-, and the toad -Gamabunta-, along with everyone in Konoha was surprised with the sudden appearance of the colossal Chouji on the arena. For comparison, the toad was stood at the height of my c.h.e.s.t. Though the snake was still larger overall.

On the side, although surprised, Orochimaru and Jiraiya had their fight uninterrupted while the Hokage once in a while help Jiraiya to attack Orochimaru. He seems vigilant and did not want Orochimaru to slip away and pull more tricks on them.

Meanwhile, Gamabunta was constricted by Manda. I hurriedly rushed and hugged Manda's head, twist it, and did a german suplex to it. Yes, the toad was still constricted. Yes, I didn't care.

On Manda's neck, a burnt ring could be seen after I hugged him. Not letting it rest, I jumped into the air while still holding its neck. Maybe from the pain or by the sudden pull into the air, the toad was released from the snake's constrict.

Along the way, I keep concentrating on the flames on my arms. And at my highest jumping point, I twisted my waist, threw the snake into the ground, and released the same attack that I did to Gaara at the tournament.

"[Katon: Hi Ken]!"

This time, though, I poured all of my chakras and only leaving the little bit for me to stay awake and still dandy to be not a fish on a chop block. The whole arena was engulfed in a flame pillar, the evening sky turned bright with the golden-crimson light.

I did not think about the consequences, all I wanted now was to vent all of my anger, frustration, helplessness, worries, and grief in this one attack. And heck, it was very satisfying. I know I will get more than earful words warning after this.

But for now...

Just let the world burn...

The Hokage-sama? I was sure that he'll manage, he's the Hokage, no?

Jiraiya-sama? Nah, except for Kakashi-san and Shikamaru, no one will care.

I know perhaps I will regret this later, but I'll just let the future me handle it.

So...

Burn... Burn! BURN BABY BURN!

HUAHAHAHAAHA!

-Shikamaru POV-

I currently was above the bunker after getting Sakura and Lee inside, I was slashing the Shinobis from Suna and Sound left and right. I worried about both of my best friends, and I hate the fact that I was helpless and can't help them.

"JUST DIE YOU MAGGOT!"

I pierced them, slit their throat, and cut them all with both of the shadows and my swords, the battle raged on. That's when I saw something, a huge toad appeared above the arena and could be seen even from where I was. Followed after that was a snake way bigger than the toad, seeing a snake made me grit my teeth. I hope they're all safe.

I need more strength...

But, how?

Recalling Kakashi-san, it's clear that took a foreign body-part and transplant it inside me was not the best choice. I need to know more methods! [2]

The sky was started to darken, the sun was about to set. But suddenly I saw my buddy, Chouji, turned into a giant. I clenched my fist, I can't let him walk alone in front of us!

In the sky, Chouji took the giant snake with him and slammed it to the ground. Then...

The evening sky was lit, it was like the sun was back to show its radiance. But, everyone with any eyes could tell that it was not the sun. It was the flame pillar that reached the sky as if it was connected to Heaven itself.

F*ck, he finally lost it...
