## PlotOh good ! You ' ve some fight left in you . ct the creature beamed with terrifying excitement . But if there was ever a time to give one ' s life , it was now or never . kSQWell then let ' s play ! ! ct the monster bellowed , raising it ' s guard against An and Kamamaru ' s attacks . Rather than using blood to shield itself like before , it simply held it ' s arms up , letting the pair slice and dice it ' s guard furiously . What was strange , however , was that it was actually doing considerable damage ! It wasn ' t some trick , the thing had literally tried to block An ' s attack with nothing but it ' s arms . Likewise , for Toruma , his ants landed on the shadow ' s body , biting it over and over . The creature writhed in pain and agony , but . it looked as if it were enjoying it , like this were some kind of sick fantasy for it . Ah ! AH ! ! AHAHAAHAHAHAH ! ct the creature could only laugh hysterically as black ooze drip from it ' s wounds . Yes ! YESS ! MORE ! MORE ! ! ct it cried out in ecstasy . What kind of sane creature would willing let somebody cause that much damage to it ? ! Now let me help you experience that same pleasure ! ! ct it shouted , as sharp tendrils of blood rose from the ground , firing off at both An and Toruma in an attempt to literally impale them . As Shizuka fled the room , she ' quickly find her way past Kiaro and Yoshino , who were fighting a monster of their own . Probably best not to disturb them , less she incur the wrath of whatever the hell they were fighting . Making her way through the corridor to the outside of the arena , the very first person she ' d see was . The Second Hokage himself sheathing his katana following what was obviously a massive fight . uBabjo 98 ucptjharkness 97 uMercurialSlam
