angry

'fuming' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'gran runs with extreme fury' is the wordplay.
'runs' indicates anagramming the letters.
'with extreme fury' becomes 'y' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'gran' anagrammed gives 'angr'.
'angr'+'y'='ANGRY'
