The smirk that etched itself on the conniving snake alarmed Heihachi. Knowing ultimately nothing about the snake in front of him, he overestimated his authority on the matter. To be truthful the snake had every advantage over the sage at this precarious moment. Heihachi silently punished himself for letting things get this far. No matter. It had been quite a while since Heihachi had a good fight. His old limbs needed this to get the blood pumping. Luckily for Heihachi, he had activated sage mode before entering the room. His vision had changed, not in the sense of old age, but something was off. He saw seijuro rocket out of position, dashing towards him, yet the sound didn’t match the picture. Tentacles emerged out of Heihachi’s body, floating all around him. Thanks to Shokushu his tentacles were able to sense the genjutsu that he was put under and break it immediately. He had enough time to begin his counter attack. 

Quickly forging hand seals, Heihachi opened his mouth, “Suiton: Bakusui Shōha!” from his mouth water exploded outwards towards the snake. An alarming amount of water spewed out of his mouth with enough force to crush and swallow up most ninja up within immediate vicinity. However, this snake was no ordinary ninja. With the rusted room quickly filling with water, Heihachi rode the water as the level rose. If he wasn’t fast enough already the water quilted his speed even more. Weaving more hand seals Heihachi slapped his hands onto the water below. “Mizukurage” while his tentacles perceived the event around him, microscopic jellyfish began to impregnate the water filling the room.
