The Old Man's attempts to palm away Ieyasu's advancing hand was enough, however his own hand was open to be grabbed and have the bomb tag laid upon. Ieyasu doubled back as he had intended to before, his leg catching fire in the midst of this hectic brawl. He patted at it to keep himself from burning further. Given there was no metal for the fire, there wasn't a burn on his pant leg like the one on his face. The explosive tag laid on the Old Man's hand would have exploded at this point, effectively destroying the master of fire's left arm and probably causing some inadvertant injury from the blast injury, including pressure issue in the gastrointestinal regions and obviously some daze and confusion from the shock and power behind the point-blank explosive.

Usually in a 1v1 this could've given some time for Ieyasu to recuperate and sustain himself, but he was fighting against two other people at the same time. He heard the loud yell of the invisible man's jutsu, Ieyasu looked to the source and began to move out of the way. However, the literally lightning-fast speed of this jutsu tore a small hole in the bicep brachii of Ieyasu's left arm that had been hanging up. It began to bleed, but Ieyasu couldn't focus on that bleeding at the moment as his forearm jerked and twitched trying to move up even though it was now handicapped in lifting up given the lightning user's precise strike.

Can't lift it... doesn't matter though. Ieyasu thought to himself just as Yala began to conjure yet another Water Dragon. Ieyasu reasoned that with the damage she sustained and using such and advanced technique twice, she'd probably be drained afterward. Then came a familiar voice in his thoughts, Hoshi; he began to quickly think of a strategy. His sixth sense also began to heighten extremely with it, everyone had some level of detection to chakra. Only those who were sensitive to it could see it as Ieyasu could now percieve it and he took direct note of how Yala had been forming the jutsu with just one hand.

The invisible man... Ieyasu had an idea and a one-way trip out of this situation that could get him back on track with his original strategy. This time however, there wouldn't be nothing to hold him back.

Ieyasu's hands began to grow once again, immense in size like boulders while his right held onto two simple kunai. Before the dragon dove in on him, he threw the kunai straight to Yala's head or so it would seem. The aim was off and the two kunai would simply fly past Yala and the invisible man which could be discerned if their eyes were good enough. Perhaps it was the pain kicking in, maybe Ieyasu was also just bad at shurikenjutsu as well.

His hands made 5 simple hand seals right as the crashing wave was about to fall on him: Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake.

As the dragon crashed down onto the ground and deformed into a pool around the room, it would be seen that where Ieyasu would've been standing was a kunai laying at the bottom of the little pool. Now the real struggle began as Ieyasu now stood behind Yala and the invisible man. The Body Replacement Technique, a most valuable jutsu taught from the Academy that allowed the user to replace their body with any object. In this case: The kunai he had just thrown and used to get behind his foe.

His hands already being huge and having the element of surprise on his hand, Ieyasu immediately threw his hands up around the head of the invisible man he could now sense being imbued with a strange power from his comrade, Hoshi. The shock and surprise of it all should've given him enough time for this little opportunity, allowing him to clap the poor man's head from both sides. The strength and force behind it would be like getting caught between two steel presses that had enough force behind them to crush whatever was between them. If successful, then the invisible man's head would've immediately flattened upon impact and burst out into blood and gore. Because they were on the wall as well and Ieyasu needed to remove himself from the situation as fast as possible, he ran no chakra to his feet so he could naturally fall and avoid any outright retaliation from Yala. It would be a clean kill, and a quick get away for Ieyasu.
