"Why does it seem everything ends up getting destroyed wherever we go?"


[Intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSyDSy6WNyU] [Remove]
You shout back to Shizune as you lay the last of the Gato Guards out with a sweeping haymaker. There's an upturned table partially blocking the hallway up front. You continue your long strides forward, dropping your shoulder into a tight acute angle.

As you feel it just make contact, you push ever harder.
Every step is an explosion from the ground.
The table audibly cracks.
You burst up from your hips, snapping the furniture like a match.

You continue your sprint indifferently down the hallway.

Shizune stands back all the hallway entrence, still staring in disbelief at the wreckage tossed aside like a broken linkin' log.

"Yeah...yeah, I wonder why."

>You are now playing as Tai
>You rejected your past life of sin and conflict, taking a new name as a monk in your quest for self-purification
>Lifestyles can change so much, so quickly. People can become different in mere days, let alone years if you aren't watching.
>You take the vows of a monk for the people closest to you. Your life is a redemption by fire for your own self-perceived mistakes.
>...but it seems that old habits will always die hard. This current labor may be the hardest yet.

You casually flick the door aside with your forearm. It flies open and crack against the wall- they really don't build these things strong these days. You feel something dribbling down your arm and face. Probably blood or something, you don't give that much notice to it these days.

What matters is you finally found that happy-go-lucky Yoru. You exasperatedly call the businessman as he jumps up startled, holding a bright coral-colored cup.

"Come on! I thought you may be here, we don't have much time be-"

...why do you smell smoke? A voice screams out far back from the poker tables.

"FIRE, OH GOD FIRE! EVACUATE THE BUILDING NOW!"

Fires now too? You look back to an alarmed Shizune slightly down the hall.
"There is debris, paper, and broken wood everywhere! This place will go down in flames if someone started a fire! We need to find the others!"

This is getting more dangerous by the second. You need to get in contact with the others, but you also...

>Need to Evacute Yoru first. He's here and looks badly beaten, not the kind of person you should leave to fend on their own.

You looks battered, but he can certainly handle it fine- at least well enough with Shizune by his side. The smoke and ash smells stronger by the second, even to you. No time to waste!

'Shizune, get Yoru. I'm finding Rin."

"I'll follow you out as far as I can, Tai. I need to get Yoru out of here after that!"

You turn heel immediately on the scene and barrel down the hallway back to the gambling floor...
...you stumble into the room, a fairly sized fire spreading throughout it despairingly quick. Shizune is right on your heels, physically supporting Yoru as she shunshins to keep up. Tables are overturned, glass is broken, there are broken planks of wood and chairs everywhere. Chips lay scattered upon the floor, a wide smattering of people still fighting over spare Ryo still dusted thickly about the room.

That distraction of Yoru's was too good, it's become the main problem!


You hear the calamatous, wringing screech of ripping and crushing metal towards the slots room. From the exit towards the Casino rotunda, you hear the sharp rings of clashing steel. The fires burn ever stronger in this room, though you hear a coughing noise from near the burning piles of wood! There are pained groans from the cashier's booth too!

>Check the Cashier's Booth!

"Amon, you better not be dead on me!"

"Tai! I'm a bit too held up at the moment to be, sorry to disappoint. I've got my hands full with a situation in the lobby, but we need to save Asa!"

"Where?"

"The vaults downstairs! She normally could make it but I think something is coming for her!"

"I'll be there to handle the situation soon, I need to get Rin first!"

The floor slightly quakes as you steam across towards the burning rubble. You dive into it fist-first with a leaping blow into the first piece of debris you find. On the ground, wheezing weakly, is a smoke-addled Rin.

Her leg is trapped under a heavy, burning table. You bury your hands into the edges of the wood and throw it across the pile. You lift up the nearly unconscious Rin onto your back- her arms draped over your shoulders- and hurtle out of the roaring inferno just to watch Shizune and Yoru as they head out towards the Rotunda with what looks to be the limp body of an employee from behind the Cashier's Stand. You'd worked with him for the past week, you know his face well. He has two kids who live with him in the city, he had hopes of sending to Konoha to study at the Ninja Academy with the money from this job.

Rin coughs, delirious. "A...mon. I'm....I'm sorry, I didn't mean it to be...this bad."

You stay silent as the girl breaths hoarsely, her lungs must be burned from the hot ashy embers on top of the damage on her burned arms and legs. .

"I saw...Yoru get hurt...I thought...I thought I'd stop everyone."

"That's enough, Rin. You did just fine."

She continues to wheeze raggedly on your back. This doesn't look good.

Can we send Yoru and Shizune around there and have Tai go to the vault? If it's relatively safe, they shouldn't need Tai's help. Unless Yoru can't carry Rin.

Doesn't matter if you're a navy seal with 20 years of experience, you're fucked if you're in the middle of a giant mob of people. Take Medieval battles for instance, in 90% of the cases an actual battle was fought the vast majority of casualties resulted from people being trampled in the rout. After that was people cut down in the rout by the enemy.

Maybe hold a revote too. I don't mind my vote losing if it means more people get to participate. I also admittedly had second thoughts about my choice, whether it would be easier to get through a large room literally filled with angry fighting people vs avoiding Han and whoever he's fighting while carrying Rin around. I just didn't want to change and end up with a tie.

With a burnt Rin wrapped over your shoulders, you hardly have any leeway here. She needs to get out of here now. Despite Shizune's unintelligible warning, the Rotunda is the way to go. The shortcut isn't worth the risk of running into whatever sounds to be ripping apart the slot machines like paper.

As you dash ever closer to the twin doors leadings to the casino rotunda, the sound of clashing steel grows louder and louder. As you burst through the doors, you're met with an unexpected sight...

Flower petals float serenely in the air throughout the marbled room. Bodies of various looters lay scattered about the the edges of the room. In their midst, a long-haired swordman is poised like a snake about to strike, a smirk on his beautiful face.

Sanjuro Hoki.

His opponent is another man you've seen in the casino earlier today, the Kumogakure man wearing sunglasses. He waits like a statue, an unbelievable number of blades wedged in nearly every crevice of his body.

He doesn't look fazed in the slightest by the conflict. By his side is a weary, panting Amon, still standing strong but completely unarmed.

>Throw Amon the retractable staff you still have for him!
>Join them in the fight, Rin has to wait until you make sure your brother is safe first!

He does have that Dharma (is that how you spell it?) release. He was punching holes in stone walls earlier in the quest.

>>
"Amon, think fast!"

A bewildered Amon glances over to see who called him for only a brief second. Noticing the retractable staff flinging towards him in the air, he reaches out to catch it.

That's all the window hoki needs.

From his lithe poise, his body seemingly disappears into thin air. The Kumogakure Ninja leaps forward immediately, spinning like a bladed hurricane! You spot a flash of a purple robe low to the ground where the Kumo ninja had leapt, but with another static blur you lose track of the ronin once more!

Seven blades dance about in the seemingly empty space, your eyes only catching small, millisecond glimpses of purple and glinting steel twisting through the storm of blades. Next thing you comprehend is Sanjuro Hoki crouched like a predator in front of Amon, katana firmly coiled and prepared to strike in a sweeping slice!

Before he can, a single electricity-covered blade launches into his path like lightning! The sharp missile cuts the swordsman off entirely, he quickly readjusts by diving out of the way with the same momentum once meant for the swift deathblow. The two allies quickly regroup, as Sunglasses spits out a rhyming taunt.

With just that sword, you ain't got no power.
Give up and retreat before you burn like those flowers!
Say adios to the Sealer and the Bee,
'Cause you're about to lose to me!

Hoki circles once more, blade coiled tightly and eager to strike as the man elegently glides across the floor like one of the many petals in the air. Taking his chance, Amon tosses you back a shiny, quarter-sized object through the air. You catch it easily as you pass by...

...it's a ring?

"Tai, I'll handle things here with Bee! Get Rin and Asa to safety with that rin! I got it from the Fire Temple monks as a gift, but haven't had the chance to test it- be careful!"

The Kumogakure ninja twitches at the mention of Asa's name, but otherwise remains focused on his opponent. As you leave you see Amon painting something onto the dark-skinned warrior with his brush, brandishing his staff as he does so.

You call out to the Hear-No-Evil Seal, demanding everyone's positions and conditions asap.

Shizune: Yoru and I have made it outside, I'm healing his injuries now! There are still people streaming out from the building from the fire! I'm setting up a first-aid station out front to take care of them!
Yoru: I'm managing, thanks to her. I'm off to find Tsunade, if those characters inside are any indication we'll need all the help we can get!
Rin: -unresponsive-
Amon: I'll fend off Hoki with Bee for as long as we need to, make sure everyone else gets out okay!
Asa: Hoki? Fire? Just what are you all up to up there? Is that one of you I sense coming down now...?

There is nobody you know of currently coming to get Asa. Someone else is making their way towards the vault...

You burst through the front doors and into the front lobby, panicked and cursing patrons escaping through the main doors and outside into the cool evening breezes. You follow them in kind, steamrolling through and shattering the doors without a second thought. You see Shizune and some other volunteers at a makeshift field treatment stand, spare rags and basic medical equipment loosely spread about the area.

You drop off Rin on a small bed of piled clothing and curtains as Shizune rushes over.

>Stay to help Shizune treat the wounded and wait for Tsunade!

A hurdle through the front doors of the casino and you're in a full, unhindered gallop back to the rotunda. The familiar, raw adrenaline caresses your veins as your eyes sharpen to a piercing, unyielding focus. Your perception, your extensive experience in situations of these by the dozens, come roaring back to the forefront of your mind.

Even the soreness of your lungs from inhaling the smoke greets like an old friend. You tear through the doors of the rotunda, immediately collapsing back with your shins to the floor- the razor-edged stream of petals zip so close overhead you feel them cutting what little of your short buzz was left.

With a leap, you're back up and running through the razored petal-storm within the room. There are explosions and streams of fire from within the ring dancing combatants, but you're better than being distracted by pretty lights! Another leap, a flip, and a slide across the floor later you're barreling through door and down the marble stairs to the floors below.

Asa! We were not the ones coming down! Are you okay?

...h-help...

Asa!
The path ahead looks clear for now. You take the one last chance to look back...

>>848182
Just as sharp steel carves through Amon's chest like butter. The blade carves across his chest diagonally to his right side under the armpit and flashes up towards the sky in a bolt of white and red.

You hear your brother cry out in pain, the bone of his upper rib flashes white through the gouge. A small flap of the skin on his shoulder is nearly cut off entirely.

You sprint down stairwell after stairwell.

You remember the clear twang of sliced sinew cut in your brother's shoulder.

You've found yourself deep below the earth, a maze of wide marble hallways greeting you.

You remember Amon's scream.
You remember the girl's empty, brown eyes as the needled blade buried into her chest within the meditative gardens of the Water Temple.

"DAMN IT!"
The wall develops little cracks where you launch your fist at it out of frustration. Why? Why is it never enough? Why can you still not protect them; why are you still so weak?

There is no mincing words here...you've failed your own family. You could have- should have- prevented this. They need you to be great, you need to be even better for them!
...for her, as well.

Whatever the cost, whatever is needed...it could never be too high of a price when compared to letting them down.

You nod, determined. This is your time.
This is Tai time.

Down the hallways you go, hallways filled with artificial light. Several times you happen upon trails of blood along the white stone, all lead to mutilated bodies, open holes ripped into their heartless chests.

Asa...while you may not have been her fan, but she's admittedly grown on you as much as she has the others- even Rin. She doesn't deserve this end.

With one last turn, the hallway widens ever so gradually...and so you come across the room.
-Inside, your worst hopes and greatest nightmare.

"Not only an open vault, but a decent bounty waiting as well. I should come to casinos more often...don't you think, girl?"

Asa is wrung by her neck in midair by the monstrous man's disattached hand. His wild-haired head slowly turns to glare at you with pupiless, green eyes. You've seen eyes like those many times before. He can no longer see the true value in anything anymore.

"I don't have the patience for a worm. You're worth nothing, not even my time- leave."


But as he stares at you, his eyes narrow and he takes out a small book from his pocket. Reading it intently, a ruthless smirk snarls across his stitched face. "Ah, wait...I thought so. 500,000 Ryo...a pleasure to see you still alive after this long decade.

Asa gargles venomously at the threaded man, he only grins wider as her neck begins to pop audibly from the force of his tentacle-like hand.

You...

Hold out the ring and say it's a unique treasure from the Fire Temple easily worth more than 500,000 ryo. We'll trade it for Asa. His unending greed will blind him and make the DC super low because we need it. When he gets close put it on and then

"Wait," you think out loud on your feet. How to distract...wait!

You reach into your gi, pulling out the treasured ring Amon had thrown you as the stitched man watches peeved. You hold it up hesitantly.

"This is the greates treasure of the Fire Temple. It is worth far, far more than 500,000 Ryo. Take it and let us leave."

He look back at you hungrily, the same cold smile on his face as he motions for you to bring it forward. You take the chance to glance at writhing, pale Asa held in midair as he is totally absorped by the object.

"I'll need to inspect just what I'm trading for, first."

Eyes darkening and anger building, you approach him fearlessly.

"Those eyes...are eyes I've seen many times. But, yours aren't the type that could be forgotten. Those eyes...that stitched body..."

He ignores you, still transfixed on the ring.

"...THE S-RANKED CRIMINAL! YOU WHO HUNTED DOWN MANY OF MY MEN AND NOW MY CLOSEST FRIENDS!"

When you finally catch his attention by slipping the ring around your finger at the last moment, it is too late...his own greed has trapped him! You bellow as your body floods with energy!

"KAAAAAAAZOOOOOOOOOOO! I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU- FIRST GATE OPEN !!!"

His eyes widen in surprise as you shoot through the air with a burst of force, ripping through his cabled arm as you bring your hand down in a chop! Asa falls to the ground, sputtering for air but quickly retreating.

Kakuzu looks annoyed as black, tenacle-like threads slither from his body and tie together with those in his severed arm. In seconds, he's back together. Within a minute, his body begins to sickeningly stretch, tear, and snap as a large, masked mass of black threads claws out of his back!

"Looks like they're going to have to take you dead instead of alive."

Asa is up, confident and angry despite having looked so shaky moments before.

You need a battle plan!

[Tai has incredible endurance and strength, but is a mainly close combat fighter! You have a few longer range moves, as seen before...but you aren't good at distances! You can open up to the fourth gate, giving you a +5 bonus for every gate opened at the cost of heavy physical penalties after several turns!]

>Write in, you already know what Tai and Asa are capable of!
>>
>>849068
I say Tai stays in close combat with Kazoo to distract him, while Asa catches her breath and use s the Freezing Arrow (can't remember it's name) when she's able. Since he can just stitch himself back together.

Can Tai layer Dharma on top of the Gates? If so do that as well.

"HERMIT ART: DHARMA PLATINUM!"

The room shines like stardust as pure, crackling white chakra emits from your fists
But Kakuzo scoffs as he launches his cabled hand towards your neck like a rocket!

"DHARMA PLATINUM: STAR BARRRRRAGE! ORAA!"

You bat the grasping appendage out of midair and back at the zombified man with your own explosive fist! It snaps back onto his arm, as he jumps backwards by a quick step, allowing the red-masked nightmare leap over as it spews gouts of hellfire from it's maw!

"ORA! ORAORAORAORAORA!"

You clash fistfirst with the first firestorm! But, rather than burn you...the flames are seemingly engulfed in a swirling vortex- it's the ring! The ring absorbs projectile ninjutsu in a wide swathe in front of you!

"ORAORAORAORA!"

Fist after fist both destroys and shields you from the raining inferno, as well as parting it well enough to provide Asa some amound of cover below. One of the petals of the Lotus Ring begins to glow a bright red as you absorb a path through the inferno, delivering a crunching blow to the creature. It is propelled backward and knocked aside by Kakuzu, who quickly moves aside as a frigid arrow flies past- the air frosted and cold in the space it passes through.

His body begins to crunch and rip again, yet another monstrous blue-masked horror climbing out of him!

You...

Did Tai hit the mask of the red one? If not, since that didn't seem to do much, attack like before trying to bait out Kazoo's minions to try and gang up on Tai, and when they get close, hit them in the mask with DHARMA PLATINUM: EIGHT SPOKES! The capitals are necessary. Kazoo'll think we're overconfident and won't be as on-guard, so it'll be relatively easy.

I dunno what Asa can really do to lower the DC, try to shoot the arrow through Tai's stardust so Kazoo can't see it coming? That should help a little bit since he isn't moving much.

"DO YOU THINK HAVING ANY MORE OF THOSE MONSTERS WILL HELP YOU, KAZOO?"
"THERE ARE THE LABORS OF A THOUSAND HOURS. FEEL THE RIGHTEOUS BLOWS OF SACRIFICE!"
"ORAORAORAORAORAAAAAAA!"

The monstrous cadre splits in three directions, allowing you to chase down Kakuzo as they edge around your charging, shining form in a pincer.

It's over.

"Fire Release: Intelligent Hard Work! Water Release: Drowning Exhaustion! "

Just as the fire begins to leave the red-masked beast's mouth, it's suddenly pierced through it's face by a bitterly cold arrow! The hole in the monster immediately begins to ice over, before long the creature is nearly frozen in place! It drops to the ground and skids, several parts of it breaking off and shattering.

However, the blue-masked monstrosity continues unimpeded. A high-pressured jet stream of water thicker than a large tree explodes from the demonic creature, blasting you out of the way just as you were loosing a crackling punch into Kazoo's stomach.

The nearby domed wall of the vault exterior cracks as you are blasted by the drowning, jet-streamed tide of water. Out of the corner of your eye, you spot a yellow-masked abomination claw it's way out of the man's torn back. You're pinned!

He's Kakuzu man, one of the most badass people in Naruto canon. He fought Hashirama Senju and came closer to killing him than anyone other than Madara. Senju's basically the closest anyone ever came to being Jesus without massive amounts of plot help like Narutard and Sausage.

tl;dr we're fighting one of the most dangerous people to have ever existed.

>>850483
So why are we fighting this nigga in a completely random circumstance with a character with some abilities nobody but the QM actually knows?
>>
>>850514
People last thread wanted to play as Tai. I can't blame them, we've never played as him before.

As for why Kazoo's here, I dunno. Maybe Red rolled who'd be here. We're fighting him because Asa rolled a 20 on her original roll against Kazoo. I assumed after being strangled with enough strength to make her neck pop she wouldn't be able to run, if we even had a chance to when she's at 100%. Kazoo has a bunch of tricks up his... hairs?

THIRD GATE: THE GATE....OF...LIFE! ORAAAAAAAA!

Water turns to steam, and steam shimmers into the blazing stardust of your shining, white aura!

Your eyes are radiant, pupiless lanterns of vigorous energy. Your body becomes a bright red.
You look like a righteous demon, a veritable Oni for good. Your pour chakra into the ring on your finger, feeling the inferno of power envelop you!

DHARMA PLATINUM: ONE SPOKE!

The air crack as your flaming fist approaches near-mach speeds, rocketing the air in front of you forward in a cannon of blazing high-pressured air!

The torrent of water is blasted apart into a crashing downpour of steam and rain. However, it isn't enough! Yet another attack, this one coordinated by the yellow and blue beasts is already zapping towards you- it's too quick!

At the last moment, a freezing arrow pierces through the electrically-charged pressure cannon of an attack. The thick column of thunder and water freezes instead! Catching the looming cyclinder of ice with your firey fist, you shatter it into less than hailstones!

There are three of them now, not including Kakuzu: blue, yellow, and a grotesque grey beaked one slithering out from his back.

The red-masked monstrosity seems to be reforming itself slowly, not dealt a true deathblow.

"Hey, VILLAIN! You think any number of opponents can hold off these fists of justice?"

"I can't stop here, not now! Not with my whole world dependent on me! I hear them, calling out for my victory- your attacks are nothing but dust compared to that strength!"

"They're all cheering for me: Amon, Myatsuu, the souls of my brother monks, and my brothers-in-arms!"
"EVEN...EVEN HER, MARIA!"

"THEY CALL ON ME TO DEFEAT YOU; THEIR CHANTING IN THE CORNERS OF MY SOUL ROAR ME TO LIFE!"

GO!
BEYOND!

"GATE OF PAIN, GATE OF LIMIT: OPEN!! DHARMA PLATINUM: BURNING FERVOR!"

The thundering bellows begin to quake the very ground under you. The concrete dents and cracks under your feet as you obtain capacities of strength unable to be contained within the human body. The very air around you ignites in a fiery-prismatic hue of your pure, crackling chakra.

The ring's red, glowing petal fades away to it's normal metallic hue. Replacing it instead- your gaze alone could burn holes in a man, let alone your steaming, star-hewn aura.

This is meta knowledge, but I'm afraid that actually won't be enough to kill him. IIRC he had 5 hearts he took from shinobi he killed. We need to get him all to actually kill him. He may have more or less. He'd need at least as many as he has minions.

He may just decide to puss out after Tai shows off his RIGHTEOUS MIGHT though.

"SUMMONING TECHNIQUE: SCYLLA, RISE FORTH!"

With a burst of smoke around your burning figure, a massive school of flying canivorous pirahna swirl about- a living, moving shield and weapon! With a few quick arm motions, you've commanded them into mutliple diverting strikes from nearly every angle! You spring back your fist just as Kakuzo and the three demonic creatures all return with their own attacks!

"DHARMA PLATINUM: EIGHT STARLIGHT SPOKES!"

Your fists explode instantaneously in a starry cloud of eight separate blows, each delivered with a crack of sonic speed. Crushing pillars of sheer air-pressure are shot at the foes, who immediately counter with cascading torrents of fire, tidal forces of water, and the thunderous crash of lightning.

Asa manages to escape the worst from the impact zone, as the solid concrete foundation around you quakes and cracks from the heroically magnified strength at play. The Scylla also manages to absorb the majority of the elemental storm, outright evaporating large swathes of the summon from existence.

You stand as a statue on the floor, Bright-Red skin altogether burnt or stripped away from your body. Blood leeches slowly from your open wounds, evaporating into the inferno of you aura and dying the air with a thin red mist.

Every one of your opponents hovers briefly in midair, gaping holes where pillars of force had burrowed through them like styrofoam. Yet, just as quickly as it had happened, the black-threaded monstrosities reform entirely. The red-masked one rejoins the others, finally regenerated fully. Kakuzo himself has a large section of his torso blown apart, but you watch the threads inside his body knot together and reform as well!

"For an idiot, you're quite strong. You would have made a profitable bounty in the future...pity."

Asa fires off several arrows, chakra-infused and normal, keeping the opponent occupied for just a bit longer. Only about 1/2 of the Scylla remains.

You think you hear thoughts of panic and nausea from the Hear-No- Evil Seal. It seems things upstairs aren't well either, let alone with your earthshattering battle in the foundations below.

You must...

>>851081
Yeah, I figured as much. I assumed we'd have them for at least one more round. Which is why I ust want to get Kazoo to decide to fuck off. By punching him up through the foundation.

It's basically the same thing, right?

It'll hold up for another round, hopefully the dice aren't out for Tai again.

Would Tai know the moves of the Eight Gates? I'd considered voting for one of them, but then I remember Guy himself made them, and thought Tai couldn't know them because of that.

"Asa...go."

She continues to fire arrows even faster, not allowing a single one of the opponents more than a couple of seconds to breathe. "I'm going as fast as I can Tai! You've got your chance coming up!"

As she drives them off to one side with the constant barrage, you shake your head and turn back to her. "No, your chance is coming up, Asa. Amon still needs you; everyone still needs you. Get to safety, I'll finish things here!"

As you motions maneuver to the Scylla for a few more seconds of distraction, Asa freezes horrified on realizing just what you'd suggested. "What? T-Tai...no. NO! What are you thinking!? Amon, we all still need you around! We...we still have a shot at this; we can still take h-"

"No, we can't....only I can now."

Asa begins to choke on her own words. "If you open any more gates, we all know what will happen! I've watched you break 5, this isn't going to be any different! Why? Why do only you have to fight? You aren't saving anyone by dying! Why are you doing this?!"

"....Why? Because..."
You look back to Asa, giving her one, last smile stretched from ear-to-ear. You have to fight. You have to keep punching forward...because...

You snap back into a crouch, the power building in your legs shatters the ground underfoot. The shockwave shakes the foundations of the concrete structure as you rocket away in a burst of prismatic fire! Your arms guide the Scylla in motions so quick, it simply looks like they follow your lead naturally and wall in the five monstrous opponents.

Asa lets out a restrained, choking sob as she watches her friend...maybe even one of her family, now...leave. She grabs the small bag of objects and records recovered from the vault, taking the opportunity forced upon her to escape.
"You'd better not die here today Tai...we're all counting on you."

The scylla compress themselves even further as you seemingly blink into the air in front of Kakuzu. The two of you are encircled by a moving, breathing spherical prison!

"A DECENT BOUNTY, HUNH? TELL ME, VILLAIN, IS KILLING MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY STILL THE EASY PAYOUT YOU THOUGHT IT WAS!?"

Threads rip out from the man's body and attempt you skewer you, but you grab them in midair and rip the monsterous man even closer towards you!

"REAL STRENGTH CAN'T BE MEASURED BY MONEY...LET ME SHOW YOU!ORAORAORAAAAA!!!"

ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!!!!!!

The meteoric barrage of fists, each carrying the force to render stone to nothing more than dust, break apart the stitched man bit-by-bit! One heroic fist explodes against his body only to be immediately followed by another- and another! The little air between the two bodies seems to draw the two opponents together almost magnetically, the constant bombardment of blow forcing out almost all oxygen within the space- turning it into a nearly vaccum!

ORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Your fists hit hundred-fold at a time. Kakuzu's eyes have long since bulged in disbelief as his body begins to swell and distend- any internal tissue reducing to nothing more than liquid from the unrelenting impacts!

DHARMA PLATINUM: STAR BARRRRAAAAGE!

One final sonic crack is all that marks your punch as the destroyed villain is blown to literal pieces, the black and red ooze gushing forth from each unstitched piece all that is left of whatever what had once been inside him.

The beasts, moments before realizing they would never break the living barrier in time, release their fully charged attacks towards the speck running in the distance- she's nearly out!

ASA!

She turns in her last seconds. The only thing greeting her vision are the tidal, elemental forces: primeval catastrophes of Lighting, Wind, Fire, and Water all bear down to reduce her own body to dust.

She closes her eyes, losing all hope of survival in that instant.

NEVER!

She looks up in shock, the massive form of the prismatic-hued Tai in front of her, arms outstretched to take the brunt of the blast.

GIVE!

With another bellow, he turns fistfirst into the elemental hurricane.

UP!

It all stops abruptly as the elemental jutsus are absorbed by the Lotus Ring! You see four of its petals flashing deep Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green. But...

Tai's back has been destroyed by taking the brunt of the initial attack for you, even if it was nullified moments later.

Blackened skin and bone stick out from his shoulders. Robe and skin alike are fused together in the explosion. He turns back to you....

His one, last smile still shining on in his face.

"Go on, Asa...I'll finish this up here and catch up later."

She knows this will be the last she sees Tai in this lifetime.
Shine on, Tai...for all of us.
Be the hero we always knew you were.

Asa nods as she wipes away the tears. She hesitates, but in the end can't find the strength to give him a hug. She hates the monk as much as she respects him for this, for saving her...

...for giving up everything.

Tai turns back to face his four opponents, watching the red masked demon drop down to the dismembered body of Kakuzu. It climbs back into the pieces, disassembling itself into threads and stitching the body together once more.

Kakuzu's eyes shoot open, alive once more. He grimaces.
"I'll have to replace that heart with yours, now. I should have been more careful...I won't make the same mistake twice."

Your body begins to feel numb all over as the burst of strength slowly burns off. Sharp pains wrack you from all over...except your back, strangely. The bones in your arms must have fractured multiple times from that last attack...not to mention keeping up this speed is shredding the muscles in your legs as you speak. The only thing more destroyed than you or the room is the Scylla, the mass of fish evaporated completely from existence.

He has...four more lives, then.
NO TIME TO WASTE! THIS IS YOUR BATTLE ALONE NOW, NO HOLDING BACK!

Use the elements best suited for countering each string demon thing, using water against fire and stuff like that.

Also please don't kill Tai. He's my favorite character and I was under the impression that this was just going to be a goofy little heist.

YOU WON'T GIVE THEM ONE.
MORE.
INCH!

"HEY, VILLAIN, REMEMBER THESE WORDS IN HELL!"
GO
BEYOND!

"DHARMA PLATINUM: EIGHT SPOKES..."

Your scream pierces the heavens as the tentacled hellspawn shoot towards you alongside their frankenstein-like master, all releasing cataclysmic attacks of their own to combat your final, overwhelming surge!

ONE SPOKE!

Like a heavenly cannon, you fire your first, blasting fist forward! The Lotus ring shinies a bright red as it combines the chakra with your own. The blazing inferno of your aura ignites the air in front of you in a brilliant display of multicolored flames! The enemies release their attacks, only for the light grey-masked, beaked monstrosity to be thoroughly EVAPORATED from the column of pure, superheated air pressure! The blow jets forward, blasting a tunnel through the concrete dome, through the earth overhead, and into the very skies above as you continue on!

THREE SPOKES!

Your aura now amalgamates with the Lotus Ring's wind-natured chakra, you begin to shine an unearthly green as the winds screech around you! Another three fists at supersonic speeds, three pillars of howling, tornadic, emerald winds crash through enemy, concrete, and earth alike! The Yellow-masked demon is now unrecognizable, only small threads left of the once horrifyingly intimidating figure!

SIX SPOKES!!

Now, the room crackles uncontrollably as if the host to a hungry, divine thunderstorm! Six more fists boom like thunder, bearing witness to the strength of soul behind them!
The two remaining opponents are filled with holes from the apocalyptic move!


In a chorus of prismatic, reflecting lights dancing about your body like stars, you put all of your energy, your chakra, your soul into this final attack! The world seemingly stops as the sheer force of the gathered power in your body is expelled at once!

DHARMA SPECIAL: EIGHT SPOKES...
PLATINUM! !
ULTRAAAAAAAAAA!
OOOOOOOORRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

In a shockwave that cracks the earth, the eight simultaneous blows conjoin into a single, all-destructive wave of almighty scale! It shatters the room as it piles through the concrete foundation like wet paper, shining bright into the night sky above as the facility begins to implode from the supernova eviscerating it within!

You smile as you collapse to your knees, chunks of cement and bedrock plumetting around you. You can no longer feel your body, your nerves shot and bones broken long ago.

You smile one last time as you look up towards the deep, midnight sky peeking through the collapsing ceiling of earth and metal.

It looks just like it did...all those years ago. That one, perfect night with her you could never forget...Maria, thank you for everything. The shadow of falling debris looms over your immobile figure.

You've become great because of her...for her, even. You finally made your dreams come true, for the both of you...

I am....
A HERO

Far above the cacophany of destruction, outside the midst of the imploding casino, Tsunade looks up with despairing, fearful eyes at the multicolored pillars of prismatic light blowing out of the ground itself and into the celestial window in the sky beyond.

She looks back to her patient, chest curdled with blood and cut innumerably.
"No, no no no...please...please not this...not again! I shoudln't have...AMON!"

She continues to heal the young man's grevious wounds, not noticing the single tear fall from the unconscious monk's eye.

Nobody died from the fire and the casino was evacuated!

The riots on the other hand...sometimes Yoru gets a bit too lucky at the expense of others.
>>
>>854557
So I indirectly and vicariously killed dozens of people because of my luck?

Well... it's not like it hasn't happened before...
Fucking Russians just won't give up. Killed ~10 million in my last Germany game.
