The only sound that broke the silence was the bubbling of the sea, signaling something immense rising from the depths. More bubbles surfaced as the water parted, revealing four massive horns. Then came the head, the shoulders, the torso—and finally, eight colossal tails, each larger than the tallest mountains in the world. This massive creature moved steadily toward the continent, only to suddenly shrink and shrink until it was no bigger than an ordinary horse.
"Sigh, what a great nap... HAHA!" it chuckled, stretching. It then began walking in a random direction. "What am I gonna do now? Hmm..." it muttered thoughtfully.
BOOOOOM
"Sigh, these humans just never stop fighting, do they?" it grumbled, clearly annoyed. "Whatever. I'm bored anyway, so I'll check it out."
The strange, tentacled ox vanished from its position.
20 miles away/3 seconds later
The Ox arrived at the sight of a large crater with a plume of smoke still wafting out of it. Out of the crater comes out dozens of strange humanoid abominations.
"What the hell are demons doing out of their hole? What the fuck has that fox been doing? I bet that lazy fox is just sleeping when it's his turn to guard the portal to hell. Lazy bastard." The ox said with anger. "It's supposed to be my vacation, but I still have to clean up these abominations." It says with annoyance.
The strange ox beast raised its hand toward the demons, then clenched it into a fist. Instantly, all the demons were crushed. The beast opened its hand again, firing small, impossibly hot fireballs at the remains of the demons, turning them to ash.
Waaaahh! Waahhh!
Suddenly, the sound of a baby's cry echoed from the crater, drawing the beast's attention. In the blink of an eye, it appeared next to the source of the noise.
"The hell? What's a baby doing here? Where are its parents—oh," the beast murmured, its gaze falling on the scorched bodies surrounding the child and the faint remnants of a fuinjutsu array.
"These people gave their lives to protect the baby... but why? It'll just die without anyone to care for it," the beast said, bewildered. "Well, I was looking for something to do to alleviate my boredom." It stared at the crying baby for a few minutes, then spoke in a considering tone, "Well then, looks like I'm adopting a kid."
