Michirama's first attack would've caught the burly marauder off guard, he had no way to prepare himself and flew off the spike he was on falling back with such force that he landed on the spike behind him, screaming out in pain as the spike went straight into his back shattering the small of his back. His legs went limp almost immediately, but the rest of his body was struggling reacting to the unbelievable pain.

Because of the time taken for Michi to cover the whole area, the one remaining bandit saw the coming winds and dropped down from the spike he was on. Quickly, he hugged it while desparately stabbing his dagger into the side of the wooden spike. It was enough to keep him there, but he was still slowly sliding down the side of the spike.

Down below, the riders and their monsters were recieving some type of welcoming from Masami. Unfortunately, neither of them were climbing up the poles so when Masami cast her Water Bullet technique, it wouldn't have done much at all to help her. The water itself only lost momentum and pressure the further down it traveled and while the rider hung tight the centipede would just move away. This wasn't just it however as Masami continued pulling out two simple senbon and throwing them straight down at the same rider.

Before Masami could continue any further, during this time the other rider simply brought his centipede up to the spike Masami was standing on before pulling tightly on its feelers before the centipede suddenly bit at the spike. This was done with such voracity and strength that the spike Masami was on snapped in half near its foundations and quickly began to fall down. Since Masami was so focused on attacking the other rider, she would be falling with it. This was because her feet were quite literally plastered to the spike by chakra, so by the time she could react she would be at a disadvantage and jumping alone wouldn't work for her.

If she went down at this rate, because of the nature of the fall she would most likely break a leg or have another intense type of injury. Across from the pit, Tuck could be seen starting to run in but he wouldn't be making it in time to save Masami from her fall.

The other centipede rider was taking this time to travel up a spike just ahead of Michi, soon enough he would have company of his own that he couldn't blow away so easily as he did these other bandits.

Outside of all this madness? The lone bandit with the dagger was starting to get back up onto his spike and if he wasn't caught in this mess he would simply turn around and start running. As much as this was spiraling out of control, maybe he could make a clean get-away leaving the rest of his comrades to die. How was the gang going to handle this? Could Masami be saved? Could they defeat the riders without letting the last marauder getting away?
