unleashes
Lets loose suddenly
Unleashes means to release from restraint, like a dog from its leash.
The word typically describes sudden, powerful release: The storm unleashed torrential rains, She unleashed her fury on the unsuspecting clerk.
What gets unleashed is usually forceful or difficult to control once freed—emotions, attacks, criticism, potential.
