A buzzing sound that literally penetrated to the bone filled the entire space, even drowning out the agonizing cry of the four-throated creature, and then the crowd of my doubles rushed towards him and jumped right through the dust raised by the ground stone.
For a moment, everything seemed to freeze, and then, barely visible, the carcass was enveloped in a giant explosion that shook the ground beneath our feet.
— I'LL KILL YOU!!!
Unfortunately, even such a powerful combination, which left no trace of the giant summoned animal, proved unable to defeat such a serious enemy — a burst of purple chakra scattered the smoke, revealing Morieu, seriously wounded but still alive.
After the double attack, he had two relatively intact middle dragon heads, albeit damaged, while only stumps of the side heads remained, almost all the scales on his body were scraped down to the flesh, and then the flesh was blown up and burned, forming one large wound across its entire torso, oozing black smoke, and not even a trace remained of its tentacles.
Only three eyes on two heads burned with a crimson fire, promising me unimaginable torment, but I did not wait for that.
"I WILL GRIND YOU TO DUST," roared the demon, "BEHOLD MY TRUE POWER!!!"
But no one waited for the creature to finish, acting according to a well-thought-out plan — completing a series of attacks, dozens of golden chains emerged from the ground on all sides of Morieu and began to quickly wrap around it, pressing it into the pit that had formed around it.
It was not for nothing that I had been standing still all this time, releasing Kongo Fusa from my legs and bringing them deep beneath the square to use at the most unexpected moment, even if it required considerable concentration and focus on two tasks.
"Now!
I'm starting, don't let him escape!" shouted the high priestess, who had been brought to the required distance by the kunoichi.
"I've got him!"
Miroku took out and activated the scroll, after which the symbols and hieroglyphs of Fuin appeared beneath her:
Hebun Ri-Raito (Seal: Heavenly Light), enclosing the beauty and the beast in an invisible barrier, and then the demon howled doomfully through the chains wrapped around his snout, looking fearfully at the priestess glowing with light.
I breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was all over, but at that moment, a multi-voiced cry of agony suddenly rang out from beyond the village boundaries — audible despite the considerable distance and quickly cut off — and then a veritable avalanche of purple chakra poured out from there, rushing straight towards the immobilized Morieu.
"Shit!
Quickly shooting chains from my hands, I barely managed to put up a barrier around the high priestess and the demon, pouring tons of chakra into it, but unfortunately, I was a fraction of a second too late — the constantly reinforced kekkai cracked from the ram, and then, a few seconds later, burst with a ringing sound from the pressure, almost knocking me off control of the chains wrapped around Morieu. The same fate befell the protective kekkai of the seal used by Miroku.
