The demon, having fully assumed its true form, towered over the hidden village like a veritable purple mountain, rivaling the size of the bijuu and the summoned beasts, against which ordinary people truly looked like bugs, and even my golden samurai, whose head was at the level of the roofs of two-story houses, was in a lower weight class, being less than half its size.
And the numerous tentacles and heads on long necks greatly increased its reach, which was already not small.
Morieu was quick to prove this — despite the distance of several dozen meters between us, a pair of tentacles like spears struck in my direction, lengthening as they flew. Not as fast as one might expect, given the creature's partial materialization, but an ordinary jonin might not have had time to react.
Covering myself with the shield in my left hand, I took the crushing blows on it, leaning back only slightly, thanks to the strong attachment of the chakra to the stone around it, and with force I slashed in front of me with the newly formed sword in the other hand.
Two writhing one-and-a-half-meter-long appendages flew to the ground, began to emit black smoke and melt before our eyes, and the demon shuddered and pulled back its damaged limbs, which were slow to regenerate, clearly feeling pain.
"GRAAA, I'LL KILL YOU!
Without waiting for Morieu to recover, I turned the weapon in my hand into a javelin and hurled it at the huge carcass, fortunately, it was difficult to miss here, glancing briefly at that the exchange of blows had eaten away a dozen centimeters of Goriate no Kouchikubutsu's size, and considering that I had used half of my ninjutsu reserves, I would not be able to defeat him on my own, even if I wanted to, unless I used the trump card on my forehead.
The demon did not want to take the malicious chakra projectile, sacrificing his already damaged tentacles, which were blown to pieces by the explosion, and began to concentrate energy in the half-open mouths of the four dragon heads that were looking directly at me.
A moment later, four beams struck and began to burn through the shield I had barely managed to put up in front of me, kneeling to hide behind it completely, while my chakra reserves began to gradually melt away.
For a few moments, we froze in confrontation — the demon tried to break through my defense, and I focused on maintaining the integrity of the shield, compacting the chakra in it to the limit, gradually decreasing in size.
It was clear that unless I started feeding Kongo Fusa: Goriate no Kochikubutsu (Adamant Sealing Chains: Goliath Construct), I would soon find myself in a very sad situation, especially considering that the beams showed no signs of stopping, gradually increasing their pressure.
But by engaging in a direct confrontation doomed to defeat with a creature whose reserves exceeded mine five or six times over, I did not hope for victory, but only did everything I could to keep Morieu's attention focused solely on me, waiting for the right moment.
And after spending almost half of my chakra on ninjutsu, I finally waited for him — clouds of smoke swelled on both sides of the demon, from which hundreds of shining points burst out, rushing towards the huge carcass, some rasengan even ended up in close proximity to the demon's heads, and before he could react, interrupting his attack, they contracted at close range and exploded, lashing everything around with strands of chakra, almost hiding him from view.
Vroom!
— AAAAAAA!
