"Get ready, the devils are soon going to make their move!" Yelled Kuroinu at the top of his lungs as various dogs of all kinds of breeds started coming out of their houses and faced the gate of hell that had an eerie red aura accumulating on it suggesting the incoming wave of devils.

And just as the dark night completely covered the sky leaving only the moon to shine its light upon the world, devils slowly started leaving the portal one after the other starting with the weakest kind, devil beasts!

The power of these beasts ranged between elite Chunin level and Jonin level and they kept coming out one after the other which brought a frown to Kuroinu's face as he quickly ordered "Get ready, today's wave is bigger than usual"

"So these are devil beasts huh?" muttered Bakorio as he thought 'This is a good chance for me to accumulate some souls and evolves Yomi no Kuni... But let test them first!'

Then, Bakorio rushed in front of the dogs surprising them as he attacked a devil beast that was at the Jonin level.

"Rasengan" Muttered Bakorio and the famous Rasengan soon formed on his hand and he easily dodged the sharp and fast claw of a lizard-like devil beast with dark scales oozing a dark poisonous smoke, and it was at least 5 meters high...

Bakorio plunged the Rasengan right on his head 'That was easy' he thought as the beast screamed in agony "Wuuuu", but Bakorio soon noticed that his Rasengan actually didn't finish it off and he couldn't help but frown slightly while dodging its next attack before he began accumulating lighting inside his hand that soon caused a terrifying sound like a thousand birds chirping a the same time, it was the Chidori! And he immediately plunged it at the beast's slightly dented scales from the Rasengan but he was in for another surprise as even this was barely enough to penetrate the beast's defense and plunge into its brain…

'What the hell? This defense is beyond normal' thought Bakorio before he noticed a red stream was leaving the hell's gate and gushing into the lizard's injury and started healing it at a terrifying speed…

'Mmmm, they can actually sustain this much damage without dying? I guess these beasts aren't using their brains in the first place…. And what's this red energy?' observed Bakorio before he heard Shiroinu's gentle voice in his ear "Bakorio-kun, those beasts can only be killed by completely destroying both their heads and hearts, otherwise they will keep regenerating"

"I see, this makes them truly annoying to face especially with the addition of their huge durability…" Responded Bakorio before he used his appraisal ability on a monkey-looking beast while using another Chidori to finish off the current one he was fighting by stating it in the heart before its brain could recover…

Bakorio's jaw almost fell to the floor after seeing the attributes and skills of this beast that was supposed to be only at Jonin level…

As if feeling Bakorio staring at him, the devil monkey rushed at him and used the hell's punch trying to smash him apart but Bakorio easily dodged it and kicked it away with all his strength. Although it was as if he was tickling it because thanks to its huge physical attribute and demon's physique, it didn't feel anything at all and instead attacked Bakorio with even more power than before…

'Tch, I need at least an A ranks Jutsu to damage it' thought Bakorio as he observed the situation around him and noticed that the dogs were fighting in groups against these monsters while Kakashi was fighting a Jonin level one on his own…

'Why are these monsters still exiting the gate? Shiroinu said that the biggest number they ever fought was only 50 devils, yet we are already at 55 and they are still leaving the gate… If this goes on, the situation might turn dangerous for these dogs' thought Bakorio and decided to quickly get rid of as many devils as he could, and the two elder sage dogs seem to have thought of the same thing and they were about to act.

However, before they could, Devil demi-beast started leaving the portal mixed with the devil beasts, and Bakorio immediately noticed that these abominations were at the strength of Jonin and elite Jonin, but considering how strong the Jonin version was, he couldn't even begin to imagine how strong these one were going to be…

"Impossible, how could so many beasts leave the gate at the same time… this is bad" thought Kuroinu, but his shock was only starting as he noticed a few humanoid looking devils, and his heart immediately sunk… these things were at least of elite Jonin level and most of them were at the low Kage level… This fight was no longer possible to win without casualties…

However, his face soon turned into despair when he noticed that not one but three completely humanoid devils left the portal, and the scar on Kuroinu's face couldn't help but ache when he stared at one with short gray her and a sword on his hips…

"Quick! Activate the Formation of purification!" commanded Kuroinu and instantly, Shiroinu moved into action along with others and a formation soon was triggered shining with a white light and started purifying hell's energy which in turn greatly hindered the devil's regeneration. The dog fought these devils for ages, they of course have some countermeasure for their abilities!

Meanwhile, inside the chaos, Bakorio noticed that one of the devils with snake-like eyes was staring at him out of everybody before he whispered something to the man to his right that was wearing a scholar's hat and clothing and had a short black beard… then, he turned his attention to somewhere inside the Osore mountain range and his horn started shining with a terrifying black lighting that he quickly lunched at the distance with a sick smile on his face… Surprisingly, he was aiming at the location where the young cubs were living and he attack was at the level of a tailed beast bomb!

However, just as the lightning left from its horn, it was blocked by a terrifying tornado that was created by a huge beast-like roar that made the mountains tremble before a three-headed dog appeared in front of Uwabami with all of its 6 pairs of eyes glaring at bim…

"We meet again, Hound sage" said Uwabami with a devilish smile, and the hound sage calmly responded to him "You vermin shouldn't have appeared in front of me" and instantly a terrifying battle started between the two of them!

Meanwhile, Bakorio suddenly dodged to his left as the path he was standing on turned into terrifying black ice, and an unlucky low devil beast that was caught in it soon transformed into nothingness…

'This is at least at the A+ rank and it's just a casual attack from this guy' Thought Bakorio as he shot the scholar looking man that was holding a staff in his hand a cold look and his eyes narrowed slightly when he couldn't read his attributes through his appraisal ability… 'This guy is at least high Kage level… Interesting' thought Bakorio as a terrifying smile appeared on his face as his killing intent gushed from his body and said "Don't die too fast"

The scholarly man completely ignored Bakorio as he was unaffected by his aura and simply said "What a waste of my time… Burn, hell flame!"

A raging blue flame rushed at Bakorio like a deadly tsunami threatening to erase him from existence… This was the power that tempted many people to go to hell!
