Chapter 471: Confusion and Fear
The ringing of the chain was accompanied by Tsume's furious growl. A muffled shuffling in the darkness followed the heavy breathing of the captive woman...
"Kh-h! What... What the fuck is this... Grrr!
Her fangs creaked. Eyes were burning with anger!
She abruptly grabbed her collar and tried to break it, but, as expected, it didn't work. Not only was she lacking strength, but her entire chakra had long been sealed. She couldn't muster even a drop of energy and perform even the most insignificant jutsu. A kunoichi without the ability to use chakra is nothing more than a weak woman. All that is left of Tsume is the innate instincts, reflexes and scent of the Inuzuka. However, it could hardly help her in any way ...

- N-no...
Trying to break the chain, Tsume, as expected, faced another failure.
"Impossible!"
Feeling the suffocating cold, she again realized that she was not wearing a piece of clothing. Her fingers trembled involuntarily...
"Kh-h! - Quickly running over her naked body with a panicked look, she again clung to the chain, and in horror began to crawl to its end, not sparing her knees ...
Tsume was looking for a way out. At that moment, such a distinct fear was imprinted in her eyes for the first time!
But when she reaches her desired end...
- A?! Stopping abruptly at someone's feet, Tsume was struck like lightning! Goosebumps ran down his back. For a moment, his eyes darkened. She finally realized that she hadn't been here alone all this time!
Someone's piercing gaze from above made her whole body shrink in fear! For a second, she thought she had attracted the attention of a real monster! It was like awakening an ancient monster from a dream!
A suffocating feeling made her bow her head in exhaustion. At that moment, Tsume did not dare to pick it up, and even look at him...
"Haa..." the trembling in one breath betrayed all her emotions...
It seemed like he was just watching all this time, but as soon as Tsume got closer, she managed to truly realize the full power of this fearsome beast.
The forehead was wet with sweat. Breathless.
That look was unimaginably frightening! It seemed to pierce it through and through, and made the very soul hide in a corner from fear!
"Wh-what is this..."
Such instinctive, animal horror - she experienced for the first time ... No, to be more precise, it was already the second time! But, it's a pity that she didn't remember that...
No wonder... A monster with such monstrous strength could well be the size of a mountain, what's the point of paying attention to an insignificant ant?
This thought, like a weak spark, slid through the back of her mind...
At that moment, Tsume was guided by instincts, which is why she did not think much, and certainly was not guided by memories or normal human thinking. At times like this, she was more of an Inuzuka than a human. Like a beast cornered and trying to escape from the clutches of death.
Therefore, it was not surprising that Tsume did not back down and jumped at this chance, which would easily have raised doubts in a normal person...
Tsume quickly controlled herself and began to slowly raise her head, as if trying to buy time, and quickly calculate all the escape options. She did not needlessly panic, intending to use the jutsu as quickly as possible, right after she identified the captor's identity and found a way out. She had no doubt that he was somewhere nearby ...
It was only surprising that Tsume seriously intended to use chakra, and this despite the fact that she had recently been unable to do this against chains and a collar.
Naruto couldn't figure out what was going on in her head. But it was, without a doubt, really interesting to watch.
Tsume swallowed.
Her fingers and back continued to shake, and the slight speed with which she raised her trembling head clearly showed how difficult this seemingly insignificant action was for her. Anxiety, fear, indecision...
This bewildered movement, full of doubts and fear, was becoming more and more difficult for her with every second.
His eyes adjusted cautiously to the darkness. Like a cat, Tsume was preparing to attack, and even curved in a similar way...
Naruto watched her with a mischievous smirk.
In fact, if Tsume's last memories hadn't been dulled by shock, she might have acted differently, but, right now, she wasn't thinking about Naruto and the last moments before passing out at all. Not to mention the Akita, Tsume couldn't even remember how she ended up in such a pitiful situation.
But, the experience of a mature kunoichi is not at all something to be looked down upon. Tsume had been in terrible situations more than once, and although this one might be considered the worst of all, given the chain and lack of clothes, she still had no intention of allowing herself to give up.
Determined, proud and brave, she was already planning her escape - it came out almost at the level of the instincts of a battle-hardened warrior.
Even though her mind wasn't clear and her head still hurt, Tsume knew what to do as she suppressed the fragments of her memories...
Now she just wanted to run away, and don't care!
The perpetrator's face doesn't matter anymore, especially when he's just standing there and she has a chance to strike from such a convenient distance!
To think, even after what had happened, she still intended to attack that impassable mountain...
Tsume was still herself, just as violent and reckless, even in this state...
