Actually the Sage bear is the impressive one. The ninja bear is just like Kakashi's Ninja dogs.

Also you made an assumption in that last post, but I don't blame you since you didn't know what scrolls Matsuki is carrying.

By the way, THAT'S the bear. He's ten feet tall at the shoulder when he walks on all fours. You can imagine that when he stands to his full height some people might shite kine, and most people will definitely think twice.
