In retaliation, the beast threw out its own much longer arms and proceeded to wrap them around Ieyasu's back. Such long and sharp claws, they dug into his back and streaked blood across his back as it tried to pull Ieyasu in for the kill. It was a power struggle between the two as Ieyasu tried to figure out a way to escape this situation unscathed. He was actually thinking though... great progress had already been made of course it'd be hard to replicate it in future battles or encounters with enemies.

An idea struck Ieyasu's head and knew it would end the battle, but it would put great strain on his reserves and afterward he would be dead-tired. Suddenly he began to direct some chakra to his head, it began to grow in size until it was almost cartoonish. His gaping jaw unhinged before he closed his mouth down upon the skull of the monster and instantly crushed it. Ieyasu whipped back his head and tore it off before spitting it out, pushing away the fresh carcass he had been holding before beginning to shrink back down.

He was already back down to his normal size when the beast's corpse crashed back down to the ground with an earth-shattering *thud*. Ieyasu laughed a little as his legs grew wobbly and weak, falling down against the tree. Something felt great about winning that fight, even greater so due to the personal satisfaction knowing that he could actually do this. Just that alone was enough to fill him up with such ecstasy that he would surely be happy enough for the rest of the day.
