Scrap-Iron Barrier!
A filthy, rust-covered iron barrier rose from the ground, standing like a wall-shaped shield before Marshmallon. The Demon Giant Hand that had been reaching to seize Marshmallon was abruptly blocked by the old barrier and could only retreat uselessly back into the Void Vortex.

"Then I'll deal with that lousy submarine first!"
Marshmallon was
