Waving his hands to Tetsuo's offer, he was still turning to look between the puppets.
"I can't hold anything like that right now, unfortunately. Need my hands free." He wouldn't know what to do with them anyways to be honest, likely he'd have to throw them at best, as the last thing he wanted was to get much closer to those monsters. Under the circumstances he needed to keep his distance, at least for now, for as long as he could. His attention was on Ouritsu as he saw him fighting, giving a bit of a contorted face as he was still in the midst of his own fight and he had just given him an order that wouldn't be so easy to pull off given the circumstance. This was his first attempt and leading a group this size, and he was still uncertain about a lot of these shinobi, but it was tough. He was so used to micromanaging puppets, moving his arm and the order was followed, that barking orders was natural, for better or worse.
Tugging at the chakra strings attached to the largest puppet off to his side that Ouritsu was attempting to help with, he had it rear up similar to a horse, it's heavy body balancing on its back legs, trying to make it easier for him to reach the annoyance going for the large puppet.
He couldn't see on the opposite side of him what Morihito was doing fully, but he heard him clear enough, making a gesture of confirmation he wasn't even sure could be seen. Hearing the fighting before seeing it, he turned again to his opposite side, seeing the metal-handed shinobi going to help out his second large puppet, and sighed with relief, allowed him to focus more on the rest of the fighting going on around him.
"Just trying to keep everyone in one piece first. I'm still in control of the situation, for now." Backing up a bit more and pulling the three puppets in front of him back some as well, he wanted to try and keep out of direct combat, and keep them out as well, but soon he'd have to go for his gambit and see how well it would work given the situation. In front of where Taki once was, stood the four statues and the barrier constructed, inside it looked as if he had caught a few of the scavengers, somewhere between five to seven by his count, but it was hard to tell as they moved around clearly somewhere between angry and confused. They were trapped for as long as that barrier could hold.
"I've got a loose plan, still mulling it over. Regrouping would be best. For now if you and Ouritsu can help my big puppets, I have an idea for them as well." Yelling out for Tetsuo, he motioned them closer.
"Where are those tunnels, about how far from here, and how far from the main tunnel? I can't see anything from here with all these bastards in the way, and that barrier I have up isn't helping anything." Spreading his arms apart he immediately started moving his hands around separately, both large spiders free of the smaller annoyance, and immediately both were going back on the offensive. Trying to bring down their thick metal legs onto whatever was left of the smaller snakes around them, intending on crushing them and battering them with their legs. It wasn't as impressive as he would have preferred however, as his attention was pulled back to the spider he had tried to kamikaze forward, grumbling and growling to himself at the damage being done to one of his puppets.
"Damnit! Fine then..." The strings that were attached to the now downed puppet were unattached, leaving it to whatever fate was left to it, as it couldn't be used as much more than something to throw at someone at best now. The strings immediately attached to the backpack wrapped around him, as a large compartment on the back opened, a mechanism inside slinging a fairly big scroll into the air, dropping down right in front of him. Closing the compartment back, the strings detached as he took a deep breath, and at that same moment the strings that were previously attached to Tetsuo detached as well.
Slowly, he began removing the leather belt wrapped around the scroll and unraveled the scroll on the ground in front of him as he took a deep breath. Just as slowly he rolled the scroll back up, re-buckling the strap and attaching chakra strings to the pack on his back. In a quick tug it jumped off of his body and moved around him, opening back up and allowing him to slide the scroll back inside.
"I'm about to summon something fairly large. Do not address her, do not look her directly in the eyes. She will not hesitate to attack if you offend her. You've been warned."
As he moved his chakra strings and brought the pack puppet back onto his body, he locked it in place, second guessing himself if this was such a good idea even in this situation. For all they could certainly use the help, he was in part worried bringing out Sasayaki with so many others around. Reaching back, he sliced his palm open on one of the charge feet of the puppet pack and pulled away the string attached to it, before mentally preparing himself and slamming his palm onto the ground. There was less of a puff of smoke and more of a minor explosion, as a creature that dwarfed either of his puppets was now standing over Tsusho, completely shading him from the sky above.
Immediately getting down on one knee he bowed his head, averting his gaze. This was partially a show of reverence given the creature he was summoning, and partially the act of summoning her and the expenditure needed to do so, giving him a moment to catch his breath.
"Lady Sasayaki , myself and my fellow shinobi request your assistance. These metal beasts and wreaking havoc, and we could use your strength to stop them."
A sound was let out from the beast of a spider that would unnerve friend of foe, angry for being summoned in such a wide open place, no clear darkness in sight, no spots to simply burrow and hide, slink and attack from. It was quite bluntly not a good start as she was bordering on angry second within being summoned.
Her large legs hit the ground with angry stomps as she backed up enough to look down at Tsusho standing under her, making the angry sound once more but clearly directed at him, before looking up and bristling with visible annoyance.
"I will assist you. We will have words later. Do not get in my way, humans."
Leaping forward, her speed was near terrifying as she lunged at the large metal beast that had just spewed acid at Morihito, no care for helping them but more so a simple matter of it being the closest and largest target to her at the moment. Attempting what the puppet now laying lifeless on the ground had failed at, her massive arms would wrap around and constrict around the puppet, launching herself and it into the air. Given her size, such a leap would have been impressive to say the least, and so would the fall and the force of the landing, as she held on tight, driving them head first right into the ground as she let go, landing down on her legs, just barely avoiding landing on top of Morihito.
Sasayaki has the ability:
Speed -
Sasayaki’s dainty movements aren’t just for show, she is devilishly fast, able to move like a blink. It is part of a testament to her prowess that she can move out of the eyeline of a person in a blink, disappearing before eyes can spot the alarming sight of the large huntress.
Sasayaki uses:
NAME: Kasoku Suru [Accelerate]
RANK: C
CHAKRA USAGE: Very Low
CLASSIFICATION: Taijutsu
ELEMENT: -
HANDSEALS: 0
DESCRIPTION:
A very simple technique, by using chakra the user is able to instantly accelerate their selves to their max speed. This can be done in just about any condition, but any techniques that slow the user's movement (such as armor from jutsu or most jutsu that might slow an individual) will still affect them.
&
NAME: Raigyaku Suihei - [Lightning Oppression Horizontal]
RANK: B
CHAKRA USAGE: Medium
CLASSIFICATION: Taijutsu
ELEMENT: N/a
DESCRIPTION:
The user grabs their opponent and lifts them high up into the air. Then, using their brute strength, they smash them head first into the ground in what resembles a power bomb maneuver. The amount of force required to perform this technique, released on the opponents head and upper back all at once, is enough to create a big crater in the ground several meters around. As one could render a giant boulder into light debris with this technique, use upon a person will mean instant death, or at least every bone in their body broken at once.
