The battlefield was divided into two sides.
On Uchiha Madara's side, Meishiki kept setting up defensive rings, leaving Madara with the feeling of a rat trying to pull a turtle—nowhere to start.
He had already used Storm Release Light Fang, Thunder Prison, and Yasaka Beads.
All of them had been blocked by Enshiki's black ink.
Enshiki's ability was somewhat similar to Earth Grudge Fear. After being torn apart, he could continually reconstruct and fuse himself back together, constantly serving as Meishiki's meat shield.
Meishiki continuously chanted incantations, and space kept trembling.
The two sides were locked in a tug-of-war.
On the other side, Hoshiki was like a cannon, continuously firing dazzling spheres of light.
The light spheres were immensely powerful and carried scorching heat.
But none of that worked on Madara, because Hoshiki's light spheres could not break through Madara's Truth-Seeking Orbs.
Itachi stood behind Madara as well, considering how to break Meishiki's turtle shell.
Both sides had clear objectives. Meishiki wanted to undo the spatial lockdown, while Madara and the others wanted to take them out as quickly as possible.
At that moment, the space above the Kagura Bell in Hashirama's hand twisted, and Shion's hand extended from the void and grasped the bell.
She and Minato had broken their own spatial seal and entered the barrier.
Minato had also brought Yoya and Haku with him.
"Lord Hashirama, I'll take control of the Time Sealing Formation!"
"Alright!"
Hashirama had heard Minato's communication earlier and was now preparing to join the battle.
But Minato raised a hand to stop him. "Lord Hashirama, you don't need to make a move. Let Haku and Yoya handle it."
Hashirama paused, then stopped anyway. After all, the Uchiha, Kimimaro, and Haku were all from Radiance Hidden Village.
They would definitely coordinate better than he
