"I WANT EVERY CIVILIAN UNDERGROUND, ANY NINJA HIGH JŌNIN OR GREATER IS WITH ME" The voice bellowed with a mix of fear and order. A chorus of acknowledgement followed as shinobi scattered to carry out the orders of their former Hokage.

"SARUTOBI-SAMA, THE FOX IS MOVING TOO FEROCIOUSLY; MY BARRIER WONT HOLD" A man yelled to his superior, voice filled with fear and desperation.

"THE HOKAGE IS ON HIS WAY WE NEED ONLY TO STALL IT UNTIL HE ARRIVES" The elder man responded and turned his attention back to the rampaging fox. Flowing through hand seals, Hiruzen bit his thumb and slammed his palm onto the damp ground. "SUMMONING JUTSU: MONKEY KING ENMA" the former Hokage bellowed as a large plum of smoke covered a section of the battle field. Once the smoke cleared it revealed a towering, well built, monkey dressed in tiger print, a leaf headband tied around its forehead.

"Hiruzen" It spoke before turning to the rampaging fox. "I thought Kushina-San had this beast under control." It turned to the Third Hokage who flashed a grimace.

"She did up until moments prior."

"The seal has weakened?" It spoke wishing more to confirm than question.

"She gave birth to twins. The boy came into the world without issue but the girl..." Hiruzen trailed off

"The girl decided to try and drag that beast out with her" The monkey spoke, narrowing its eyes at the fox.

"In a sense yes"

"Then let us fight" It's tone decisive. Hiruzen nodded and with a puff of smoke, Enma turned into a large black staff.

"EXTEND, ENMA!" Hiruzen shouted as the staff obeyed his command, thinning out and extending in length. Hiruzen flung himself towards the fox who seemingly noticed the man and swung a claw towards him. Hiruzen, stopped his advance and swung his staff upwards, catching it between two of the beats claws.

"EXTEND, ENMA!" Hiruzen commanded once more and the staff shot through the beasts claw, nailing it in the snout. The fox reeled back as it stopped to assess the Third Hokage. Hiruzen took advantage of the brief lapse in attack to make his own move. Retracting Enma, the elder man threw a pebble behind the beats head before making 5 hand seals.

"SUBSTITUTION JUTSU" the man had disappeared and in his place was the pebble he threw earlier. The foxes eyes widened before it whipped its head behind itself, spotting the former Hokage.

"FIRE STYLE: BURNING ASH JUTSU!" The former Hokage called out before blowing out a cloud of gunpowder. The man stalled to light it as he let himself fall and slip behind the temporarily blind demon fox.

"FIRE STYLE: BURNING ASH JUTSU!" He yelled again as he repeatedly ran laps around the blind fox, repeating the jutsu in intervals. The fox attempted to raise a claw to swipe at the smoke but found it couldn't. The beasts eyes widened as it seemingly knew what came next.

"Wisened up have we?" The former Hokage said tauntingly as Enma was back at his side, not as a staff but as his summon, holding a wire covered in a slick substance.

"FIRE STYLE: FIRE BALL JUTSU!" The ball of flame stuck to the incendiary oil and traveled up the length of the wire, wrapping around the fox while also exploding the several gunpowder clouds around its head.

"THAT'S THE POWER OF THE HOKAGE!" a shinobi yelled out and a chorus of similar sentiments followed. The fox stayed stagnant for a while before letting out a deafening roar and tearing apart the wire and settling its glare on Hiruzen. The fox snarled before opening its jaw and pointing it straight towards the former Hokage as a sickly blackish purple chakra condensed in its mouth.
