Frost's perception of time slowed down to a crawl as he saw the four massive Skarpions attack from all four directions.
Their use of aura, their timing and the still ongoing attacks of their lesser kin made their sudden ambush truly threatening.
The chakra armour he just finished forming would barely last a single second against such a well-coordinated attack.
His mind analysed the situation as fast as possible, churning through possibilities and eventually coming to a disappointing conclusion.
'We can't withstand it.' No matter what action he took, whether he charged to one side and attacked or dramatically increased his defences one of them would suffer a severe, debilitating injury at the very least.
And to be wounded to such a degree here, was a literal death sentence.
