The Darkness of It!

At that moment, once the battle began.

Natsu Yuu teleported out of the barrier and used a Truth-Seeking Orb to construct a floating platform with the perfect view.

Then he brought the other "spectators" over to Ninja World 4.

Hashirama 1 and Madara 1, Tobirama 2, Snake Aunt 3, and Six Paths Nagato 5 were all there.
