---------------------

Hanabi and Yakumo close their eyes in despair as Shinnō punches towards them.

"NO! Shinnō Sensei, you can't!"

Amaru yells at him.

Swoosh… swoosh…

Multiple dark purple chains rise from her body and bind Shinnō. The chains kill his momentum and hold him at a place.

"Huh?!"

Yakumo and Hanabi open their eyes and notice Shinnō struggling in front of them. They turn towards Amaru with a shocked expression.

"Amaru! You?!"

"No, sensei! I won't allow you to harm anyone. You are such a kind and gentle soul. How can you even think about killing other people? This is not the real you. I will fix you soon!"

Shoom… Shoom…

More chains rise from her body and wrap around Shinnō.

Hmph…

Shinnō riles up his chakra and pulls his arms and snaps the chains wrapped around it.

Swoosh…

More chains appear and retie his hands.

"So, you have awakened your troublesome suppressed bloodline!"

Shinnō scoffs at her.

"These chains are said to be strong enough to hold down even a tailed beast but…"

Snap…

Shinnō draws more dark chakra from his throne. His muscles swell up as his physical strength is pushed to the limit.

"It won't be able to hold me back since I have already surpassed that limit."

Snap… Snap…

The chains around him shatter and Shinnō frees himself.

"S… sensei!"

Amaru loses consciousness due to the over-exertion of her chakra.

Shoom…

Shinnō gathers a large amount of chakra in his right hand as he performs his version of Rasengan.

"I should have killed you back then to lessen my troubles. But now it doesn't matter anymore!"

Shoom…

He releases the mass of dark chakra towards Amaru.

"Amaru-chan!!"

Swoosh… Boom…

Another ball of crackling blue energy appears out of nowhere and collides with the dark ball of chakra.

BOOM…

Both energy balls explode and disperse in a brilliant display of sparkles.

AWOOH…

A wolf's howls rings in their ears as Roen walks out of the other end of the hallway.

"Master was right to send him here. If I was late even by a moment, then this red-hair girl would have died."

Roen slowly walks in front of the girls. He turns towards Ayaka, who had lost consciousness.

Swoosh…

Roen presses his paw on her forehead and releases some Healing chakra.

"Medical Ninjutsu!!"

The girls recognize the healing chakra.

"Roen you can use medical ninjutsu, so amazing?!"

The girls have stars in their eyes as the fear in their recedes completely.

The presence of Roen assures them that their Sensei is nearby, so they don't have to worry anymore.

"Of course! I have picked up a few tricks under Master's guidance." Roen turns towards a stunned Shinnō.

"You girls would be fine even if this mongrel attacked you, but this red-haired girl would have died!" He points out.

"Really?!"

Yakumo and Hanabi doubtfully stare at Roen.

Roen points towards the bracelet around the girl's wrist.

"The bracelet master gave you isn't just a storage tool; it also has a very powerful barrier formation inscribed on it. It will activate whenever your life is in danger." He assures them.

"I am not buying that!" Yakumo shakes her head.

"If it activates when our life was in danger, then why didn't it activate now when we are about to die under his attack." She argues with him.

"Yes, I agree with Yakumo." Hanabi also nods her head.

"It didn't activate because I deactivated it."

Roen points towards the collar around his neck.

"This works in a similar fashion to your bracelet. All of them are connected with each other with a seal. So, if you know the sealing formula, you can deactivate it. With me here, there was no need for the barrier!"

Shinnō gnashes his teeth. He stares at Roen with anger and resentment.

"A puny summon thinks that he can deal with me when my powers are even greater than the tail-beasts. Haha…"

Shinnō mockingly laughs at the small size of Roen.

Shoom…

He riles up his chakra and extends both of his palms in front of his chest.

Fwoosh…

A large amount of dark chakra gathers in between his hands. He compresses the dark chakra into an orb and aims it for the girls.

"That previous time must have been a fluke. I won't miss this time!"

Roen turn to the girls and gestures towards them.

"You kids, hide behind that pillar. You are a part of my lupical, I can't allow the young cubs like you to get hurt when I am about to go all out."

"Alright!"

Yakumo and Hanabi nods and pick up an unconscious Ayaka and Amaru.

Shoom…

Dark blue flames light up on Roen's tail as it splits in two.

Whoosh…

One of the flames flies towards the girl and forms a transparent blue barrier around them. After assuring their safety, Roen ferociously turns towards Shinnō.

Grrr…

Roen's eyes turn red as his body slowly expands.

Awooo…

He howls in fury and reveals his fangs and claws.

"You mongrel, you dare harm the dearest lupical of mine."

Roen turns towards Ayaka, who is slowly waking up. Memories of Ayaka's childhood flash through his mind as she used to play with him.

"I lost my only lupical when I was a cub and now when I finally found my lupical you dare harm her. You will pay for this audacity!"

Roen opens his mouth and gathers a large amount of Negative chakra from the surroundings.

He condenses a large amount of negative chakra into a blue ball and fires towards Shinnō's incoming attack in the form of a beam.

BOOM…

Both jutsu collide with each other as a gigantic explosion occurs at the center of the hallway. The explosion blows away multiple layers of the floor to reveal various chakra circuits running across it. They are held in a deadlock, as none of them can overpower each other.

Haha…

Shinnō laughs as he notices the deadlock.

"Even as a summoned beast, you have some skills, but this is not the limit of my power. With Reibi's chakra, I have unlimited power."

Shoom…

He draws more dark chakra through the throne and infuses it into the technique.

Shinnō's technique overpowers Roen's energy beam and slowly pushes it back.

"It's good you can put a fight or else I won't be able to execute you properly."

Roen grins at him.

Shoom… Shoom… Shoom…

Five blue magatama flames light up around his neck.

Swoosh… swoosh… swoosh…

They merge with the energy beam and empower it.

BOOM…

The energy beam instantly obliterates Shinnō's jutsu and smashes in him.

"NO! How… how is this possible?!"

Shinnō has an incredulous expression on his face. He is nailed to the wall as the energy beam destroys the surrounding wall.

Sizzle… sizzle…

White smoke rises from Shinnō's body and heals his body. He slowly stands up and smirks at Roen.

"As long as I have access to Reibi's chakra, I…"

Swish…

Roen infuses the negative blue flames in his claws and swipes them at Shinnō.

Slash…

He slashes a major portion of Shinnō's front body, leaving behind a gigantic gash around his chest and abdomen.

Spurt…

A large amount of blood leaks from the gash. Shinnō grabs his chest and falls into his pool of blood.

Swish…

Roen wipes his claws and stares at Shinnō with a savage expression as his suppressed inner bestial nature erupts.

"Now that's what I like to see when my prey won't die easily. This way I can toy with them however I like."

Black fumes rise from the bloody gash as it negates Shinnō's healing technique.

"My earlier attack was infused with a large amount of corrosive negative chakra. It can negate most regeneration techniques. I am surprised you can still heal after that!"

Roen curiously stares at Shinnō.

"Let me see how long will you last!"

"Damn you beast!" Shinnō growl in anger as he gives up on defense and healing.

"I will take you down first, then I will enough opportunity to heal myself!"

At the side-lines,

Yakumo and Hanabi stare at the battle with amazement.

"Wow! Roen is so amazing. He is so powerful!"

"Of course! He is the summon of the most powerful shinobi."

Yakumo nods her head.

----------------

Back at the battle between Izuna and ten-tails,

Izuna raises his head and stares at the ceiling.

"Looks like Roen handled everything perfectly. But I can't break this final barrier around Zero-tails without him."

Izuna stretches his right hand.

Shoom…

He gathers a large amount of wind, fire, and lightning chakra.

"Sunder Release: Valkyrie Execution"

He compresses the chakra into a spear and aims it towards the ceiling.

"Since a kid learns from his father, then a father can do the same!"

Swoosh…

He releases the spear towards the ceiling of the closed chamber.

BOOM…

The spear slams into the ceiling. It pierces through the various runes carved on the walls and explodes.

Rumble…

The ceiling collapses from the impact of the jutsu.
