I entered a dust brawl with this wolf that bares a striking resemblance to a toriko character I know. He's using jutsu to enhance different parts of his body from what I can tell.
His claws on his feet have grown bigger and much sharper, we've been fighting for about 10 minutes now while trading back and forth with out attacks. His claws match my cutlery in sharpness and lethality. When he bites on me I can see small water droplets on his teeth so he's sharpening them with water style.
He backed off and snarled at me before beginning to curl into a ball like a hedgehog. He begins spinning on the spot rapidly. It looks like the akimichi clans jutsu but he's sharpening his fur so he will be like a buzz saw when he hits.
As he launches himself I side step him and deliver a kick while saying "piss of hedgehog". He snarled again and roared " I'm not a hedgehog monkey, you'll regret this". He then scuttled off rather quickly.
Some after image technique like killua's echo steps. I turn to my camp and go back to sleep after placing down more trip wires. I hope the wolf comes back.
The next morning I did a mild workout with some nearby stones and logs to keep me in shape then pack up to move further in. That wolf from last night shows that there should be other intelligent summons here hopefully I can meet one.
Later I ventured into some form of massive ant nest so I cast a fire and wind jutsu in conjunction before leaving quickly. After that a gigantic bird attacked me so i cut it to pieces. Later I went to a ravine to gather water and a black snapping turtle of gigantic proportions attacked me. I must smell delicious to them.
After breaking the turtles neck and making another meal for myself out of my collected ingredients I felt my body become denser and sturdier. I also felt that I could lift more and could run faster. The meal made from the bird, turtle and ants has proved beneficial. After some chakra control training I heard some type of weird chirping.
I tracked the source of the noise and couldn't believe what I found. A mamyu from toriko. This green bug looking creature detected me instantly even though I was hiding my presence. This just shows I have more to work on. It jumped at me with its jaws wide open so I sent a tempest kick into its mouth bisecting it in the process.
That was not wise as immediately more of them started appearing quickly with no signs of stopping. I had a cold sweat on my forehead while maintaining my smile. They started repeating their attack similar to the first one so I sent flying knives and forks. They made great training for the jutsu as my aim was improving rapidly however my chakra was draining fast.
I retreated back and sprinted to change the scenery. They follow me relentlessly so I decide to cut them down in batches. I jump back and retrieve my senbon packet from my pouch. I raise it to my mouth and begin to cast my jutsu.
Fire style dragon whisker jutsu. I fired the needles into the mamyu leading to them combusting after impact which lit those trampling behind them on fire. I'm astounded the trees didn't burn but these trees are chakra enhanced through long period of exposure to the nature energy here.
I kept repeating this process for 2 hours but the mamyu kept coming. I've nearly ran out of senbon and chakra so I decided to fully retreat. I took some jerky from my pouch and scarfed it down to try to regain some chakra. I executed a few flash steps but it didn't so much in terms of gaining safe distance.
After running I stumbled upon what looks to be a small shitsu with a pompadour. It looked old, the old timer turned to wards me with bushy eye brows and a drunken expression and just said "hello".
I panicked, my actions might lead to this guys death. "Run away gramps these things are hell bent." I attempted to change direction to lure them away from the old shitsu but some of them sprinted towards him thinking he was easy prey.
The old dog looked at them and raised his tail. It's suddenly became spikey and he swung it quickly towards the mamyu. All of them stopped and keeled over. I was shocked.
I checked them and found hair/ fur needles buried into them paralysing them. This is knocking, I turned towards the old man with awe in my eyes. He hiccuped and looked towards the fresh batch of mamyu then began to swell up. His eyes didn't look drunken anymore and he developed a beastial grin on his face.
"Look closely young human" he said before making his fur stand up and down like he was flexing it. As the mamyu dove towards them he moved rapidly swinging his tail back and forth and moving his body dynamically. He jumped from place to place and knocked every one of them down.
I need to have a wolf summon. He turned towards me "why have you come here human" he asks like a kind old man despite matching me in height. " I wanted to make a contract with the wolves and become stronger". He looked at me closely and sniffed once or twice. "You have potential, my names jiro kid. Follow me".
I stumbled trying to follow him. "Thank you Jiro san my names Toriko Yūhi". As I was about to follow him I heard a massive chirp. Comparing it to earlier this chirp was like comparing a robin to an eagle. A massive purple coloured mamyu appeared rampaging towards us. Old jiro looked towards it and let his chakra flare up causing the ground to crack. The monster halted its steps and began shivering "piss off brat" was all jiro said before it took off in the direction it came even faster than it did towards us.
Old jiro then resumed his previous appearance. "Your in luck toriko-kun I feel like you'll make a fine summoner for the pack." Before moving quietly towards the mountains. I basked in my happiness and took off after him. I can't wait to meet the pack maybe I'll meet that hedgehog one again.
