Mito's POV /

* Knock knock *

"Grandma we are here !" I hear my granddaughter who was waiting from behind my room's door with someone i have long wanted to meet again and ask some questions.

"You can come in" i replied calmly.

After i gave my permission, Tsunade and a tall muscular boy entered my room. I spread my arms and Tsunade quickly ran towards me then gave me a hug which made me smile gently at her.

"Welcome back my little granddaughter, it seems you have brought a guest back with you !" I said gently to Tsunade who nodded and then looked at the boy who was becoming restless.

"Now my little granddaughter, go out until i call you in again, ok ?" I told Tsunade gently.

"But grandm..." She wanted to retort but a slight glare from me made her quite and she nodded silently then slowly got out while looking worriedly at 'it'.

* Criek clog *

The moment Tsunade left and closed the door a shocking scene happened in front of me with the boy suddenly growing in height.

* Krrkrkk *

He began to transform, with his hands turning into claws, his teeth turning into fangs, growing armor-like skin and hair, glowing veins running along his body and hair that was covered in armor too. And his shoulders growing some spiky armour.

I looked in surprise at the unknown being in front of me with unknown emotions welling up inside.

'Kill him woman just Kill him !!' I heard a deep hoarse voice screaming in my head.

'Shut up fox ! At last something interesting happened' I replied in my head to the stupid fox.

'YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WOMAN !' He yelled again in my head with his annoying voice.

'You shouldn't judge just because you sense that sinister and evil aura surrounding him, maybe he is hiding something we don't know, you know!' I replied again while looking at the terrifying creature that sent chills around me for some reason.

'I told you that you don't understand woman ! There are many things in this world that you are not aware of !' The fox said in disdain and i narrow my eyes at that.

'What do you mean ?' I ask with interest while looking at the 'thing' in slow motion which was coming towards me with a very peculiar footwork that i have never seen from anyone.

'Hmph as if i will tell you' He said and i just tighten the adamntine chains around the fox to cause him pain for pissing me off every single time he speaks.

'ROAAR !' He cried out in pain then i cut off the connection and focus more on the 'thing' .

I then raise my hand and put some seals on the room that won't let anyone outside to know what's happening here by putting some reinforcing and silencing seals around

'It' approached me fast and the moment 'it' was in front of me 'it' delivered a punch aiming at my face with a beastly cry " Rghaaaa"

* Bam! *

"How interesting " i muttered while blocking 'it's' punch with only a finger, not even fazed by it in the slightest.

"Raghhhhh !!" 'It' let out another cry and started to relentlessly punch me from every angle with every punch very precise and refined that amazed me.

* Paw Paw Paw Bam Bam Bam Paw !! *

I just raise my palm and block every punch he delivered with ease while i was mesmerised by 'it is' beautiful movements of 'it is' body that resembled water.

"How beautiful, it looks so gentle like water but deadly like a wave, how interesting" My eyes sparkle at 'it is' beautiful taijutsu as i just tuck my chin a little and avoid a kick that was a breathes away from hitting my jaw.

He didn't wait and delivered a circular 360° kick at my abdomen which i again blocked it easily with my palm and put a little force then throw 'it' away.

He quickly rotated himself in the air and landed on feet safely.

"If that's all you have got then you won't ever be able to make me even budge" I taunt 'it' but i got no reaction from 'it' much to my disappointment.

'I need to make 'it' come back to it's senses it seems' I thought as i just clench my fist and wait for 'it' to come near.

* Swoosh ! *

"Raghhh !" 'It' cried again and started to do a series of complex punches but i didn't let them hit me and just throw a chakra enhanced jab at the things jaw then he flew away like a bullet and hit the wall and made cracks on it.

* Boom ! * * Crack *

"Huuh ?" I hear the thing mutter as he hit the wall much to my expectation.

Garou's POV /

"Ahhh! my head, what's happening?!" I said and shake my head to remove the numbness i am feeling all over my skull then look around the room for a second before i remember what happened.

I look at Mito who was looking at me as if she found out a new toy to play with.

*shudder*

"So you can speak !" She said with a smile.

I remember the moment i entered and saw this woman, my body went into an autopilot mode because of the sheer aura she was emitting that awakened my primal monster instincts and... i could feel it, i could feel the monstrosity that was hidden inside her staring at me with malice, sending waves of killing intent at me.

"You really have something interesting inside of you woman!" I told Mito with a wide grin who just twitched her eyebrows in annoyance at what she heard.

"Tell me what are you ?" She asked while frowning thinking i will answer.

"Ohh, so you invited to me to ask this ? Don't you already know ?" I ask back with a smirk that was hidden behind my armor like skin.

"So you won't tell me huh ?"she said with a hand on her chin while giving me a gentle smile that i knew it means promising pain but who am i ? i am the masochi- the fucking garou who doesn't care about pain.

"Haha, i was sleeping before your punch hit my jaw and woke me up, i will have to thank you for that" i said as i stretched with my hands and back to get ready for what about to come.

"Sleeping ?" She said and i just smile underneath my mask.

"My sleepy self is quite an unsightly thing to see, so don't worry i won't disappoint this time" i said and i got into my stance with my hands loose, a little away to touch the ground and my back hunched a little.

'WATCHDOG MAN STYLE'

*Swoosh!*

I blur out and appear before Mito and...

'COMBINATION ARTS : ADAMANTINE VOID BOXING : GOD'S FIST'

*PAW !*

My fist instantly appears before Mito's face with a blurr but only for it to be blocked by her with only her palm that was unscathed.

*PAW PAW PAW BAM PAW PAW !!*

I threw a serious of boxing jabs and punches at her but for it to be blocked easily by her, not making her even moving an inch backwards that made me feel annoyed.

I knew this is just a losing battle but there is no time better than this to refine and evolve myself to be better and stronger, and i knew too that she won't let me out until she get answers to her questions, so just let's go on a rampage until i can.

Ding... Assimilation { %22 > %23 }

I smirk as new memories of fights and experiences of garou get poured down on me

I flip backwards and...

'COMBINATION ARTS : WATCHDOG MAN FLAME KATA : RAGING FIRE'

My speed exploded and appear before Mito again then throw a punch aiming at her beautiful face. She lifted her eyebrow in a little surprise at my sudden speed up, then raised her palm as expected and tried to block it but...

* Pufff *

'PHANTOM PACE'

I puff out to leave my after image and appear beside Mito who wasn't paying attention to me and throw a God's fist that cut through the air aiming to her side abdomen but...

* Clank !*

Before my fist met her i was thrown away by a long golden chain that hit my face and hit the wall of the room opposite to Mito.

* Crack * "spurt !"

I leave a crater on the wall and hit the ground kneeling, my lower face armour breaks and i spit out some blood.

"It's really surprising that someone with no tenketsus and chakra could actually achieve this level of speed and strength, it's all the more reason for me to get interested to know just what kind of creature are you? but again, you don't look like you need chakra at all" I hear Mito talk as i look at her surrounded by golden chains that was moving around wildly.

'I need to break my limits quickly' i thought tiredly as i could feel that my limit in this form is approaching.

*Clank Swoosh !*

I hear the sound of chains that was cutting through the air approaching me fast with their pointed sharp head.

I calm myself down and move my hands around me, a blue aura could be seen around my extremities that resembles the flow of water and then stop in a position that resembled a praying mantis.

Without looking around i count 'One, two, three... twenty four' the number of chains that was surrounding me real quick and move my hands.

'WATER STREAM ENCAMPMENT'

I move my fists around me real quick creating an area like a shield where my fists deflect and destroy anything that enters...

* Clank Clank swoosh swoosh clank * 

I deflect the trajectory of the chain heads while ignoring the blood that was pouring down my hands caused by the sharm tips of the chain heads.

*Stab!* " aghhh ! "

Ding... Assimilation { %23 > %24 }

I immediately grab the last chain that i missed, which was stabing my right arm and forcefully take it out.

*splurt!*

Some blood came out of the wound but i manage to stop it by contracting the muscles around the wound to stop the blood from coming out until it started to regenerate slowly.

"Ohh, Regeneration too ?" She said with her eyes widened.

"Huff huff huff" I pant tiredly and look back at the memories i got of OG garou fighting Bang and bomb, only to get beaten up badly and kidnapped to the monster association base to meet the monster king orochi.

'This is useless to me right now' i thought as i didn't get anything useful except the phantom pain i got from OG garou.

I can't keep up with her in my current strength, the flow around Mito in my eyes gets interrupted in the middle as indicating that it's of no use how much i try to get the upper hand in this battle.

'I need something new, my martial arts can't do anything to her with my current strength and speed. I need to get stronger and better' i thought tiredly while looking at the chains surround Mito again who was just standing in her place not moving an inch up until now.

"You surprise me with something new every second till now. you could perform superhuman feets with only some unique Taijutsu and regenerate too. is it your special body that gives you the ability to do this or what? What are you hiding from me?" She asked while looking up and down my body which creeped me out for a second.

I change my stance quickly and move both my arms which was emitting a pinkish red aura from downwards to upwards with great strength and create a razor-sharp Whirlwind pressure.

'WHIRLWIND IRON CUTTING FIST'

*sssshhhhh*

With my hands shaped like a claw, i send a huge wind blade towards Mito that cut through the floor of the room. She widened her eyes for a second but to my disappointment, she just did a hand seal in front of herself.

"Wind release: wind dispersion" she said an the wind slash i sent was dispersed just like that.

"And now you manipulate the wind with only your body, tell me, can a human do this?" Mito said and asked calmly with an intrigued expression.

'THIS IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING' I thought angrily as i grit my teeth.

'WATER STREAM: INSTANT MOVEMENT'

I jump at her using a special footwork, swiftly and fluidly moving as if i were flowing. By moving in a way unexpected by her, i appear in front of her while dodging the chains and precisely aim for her vital points.

'COMBINATIONS ARTS: WATER STREAM DERIVATED SHIGAN: PIERCING FANG'

With my trained fingertips, i hit the smallest weak point near her heart with a single hit of incredible accuracy. This move is smooth like water but powerful enough to destroy rocks with unparalleled destructive power.

*Stab!*

I stab her chest but a second later i frown because i felt as if i was stabbing an incredibly soft pillow.

"You are a pervert too" i hear Mito say which made me sweat like a river then i felt an incredible force hit my stomach...

*BAM!* * spurt*  "AGHHH!!"

I spit out blood and saliva, then get on my knees while clutching my stomach in pain, having a hard time breathing.

Ding...Assimilation { %24> %25 }

I widened my smirk because of the new memories and experience that poured down my being again then quickly flip back again.

I stand in my place with my arms loosely infront of me while panting hard before i straightened myself and take a deep breathe.

Left hand...

'WATER STREAM ROCK SMASHING FIST'

Right hand...

'WHIRLWIND IRON CUTTING FIST'

This is the limit of what i can reach right now, the perfect offense and the perfect defense together, the first step to reach the ultimate art.

"Ohh, you combined your most powerful taijutsus right on the bat, i must say that i have never seen a Genius of taijutsu like you. You just used me as a stepping stone to refine yourself more, right?" Mito said as she put her hand on her mouth as if to hide her smirking mouth.

I didn't listen and just continue to bask in my own enlightenment...

'WHIRLWIND WATER STREAM: ROARING AURA SKY RIPPING FIST'

The End
