The baboon that struck at him was fast and aggressive with a sense of bloodlust to drive that aggression. But when Hayato ducked and weaved around its strike, it made a screech of annoyance and snarled from being hit square in the face. Lips being pulled back tight over its sharp borne fangs. Since Hayato hit it so hard and clubbed the baboon in that general area, he'd likely bruise his hand but that was small peanuts compared to the damage he did to the baboon. It tried to grab at Hayato and tackle him to the ground but that was cut short from his punch and it went barreling back and landed with a sickly thud.

At seeing this, the other baboon howled with shrill anger and rage and charged into Hayato blindly. Oh sure, to see a human dispatch one of its kinda that easily outclassed him in terms of strength, size, power and raw instinct, that was intimidating. But that was all the more reason that this human had to die. However, with him body flickering, the baboon lost sight of him for a moment and howled again with its neck being grabbed. It too would trying to slam into and tackle Hayato into the ground, swinging its long arms to pummel into the backs of his arms and shoulder blades. This too would likely earn him some bruises but suddenly silence fell between them and the baboon's weight went slack in Hayato's grip.

Right at that moment too, Manju made another heart-stopping roar as he choked slammed not one but two baboons into the ground. The force he employed had been enough to shatter the ground beneath their heads. The third baboon already dead at its feet, Manju dropped the others and picked up Hayato to continue their journey to the sage's palace.

With a sense of urgency really spiked, Manju covered alot more ground now, causing the very dirt beneath him to quiver in fear. The fires were becoming less and less sparse now, but instead the sheer amount of trees around were knocked over and the evidence of wind damage was everywhere. After perhaps ten minutes of full out sprinting and galloping, they'd see the palace was on fire beyond a thick rim of burning trees, but now there was only thing that stood between them and their destination.

A fifty foot gap. Their side was clear but on the opposite end was a large waterfall and just meters from that was a row of a dozen killer mandrills. Manju was easily the largest ape around and definitely the most agile but there was no way he'd be able to make this jump on his own and hit the ground swinging. So now as the mandrill baboons howled and screeched their taunts at them, Manju put down Hayato.

"Can you kill our enemy from this distance? I can get us across somewhow but we will surely die if these fiends are not addressed first." Manju looked down at Hayato with a serious expression, who also now had a new scratch across his black forehead that was bleeding.
