When Minato reached the shoulder top, the Cyclops opened its mouth wider, letting out a deafening roar.
Minato's right hand began to glow red again. Blood dripped from his palm, gathering into a small, bubbly sphere. Without hesitation, he threw it straight into the Cyclops' mouth.
The moment it hit inside, the light expanded inside.
A loud crack followed. Then the cyclops head exploded into pieces... flesh, blood, and bone bursting outward in every direction. The pieces hit the walls, the ground, even the portal's frame. The creature's massive body fell backward with a loud crash that shook the entire street, alerting everybody in the university.
Minato landed a few meters away, rolling once before getting back on his feet. He didn't look at the corpse. He turned his head toward the portal instead.
He wiped the blood from his face with the back of his hand, his expression blank but his eyes dead cold. He took a short breath and squared a defensive stance.
