After Phoenix Woman finished speaking, her entire body began to burn, and flames instantly filled the area around Phoenix Woman.
Phoenix Woman's eyes were extremely wicked, and she slightly raised her hand.
"Ah!!" A series of painful screams suddenly rang out as countless white-robed Divine Arts Master were absorbed into the Phoenix Woman's body.
Minato Namikaze truly felt sorry for the white-robed Divine Arts Master. After all, as a fighting force, they were also constantly being used as nourishment for their commanders. In that sense, they weren't really human in the true sense of the word.
When the Phoenix Woman devoured the white-robed Divine Arts Master, a powerful barrier immediately rose around them. This barrier completely blocked all of Minato's attacks and prevented anyone from using Space-Time Ninjutsu to enter it.
"There's no other way! It seems we can only let this guy transform into his final form. It's going to be a fierce battle!" Minato Namikaze had already mentally prepared himself for this.
With a large number of white-robed Divine Arts Master being absorbed, the pressure on the Ninja Allied Forces was decreasing. Kakuzu and Darui's First Unit had already annihilated a significant number of enemy troops. After Kushina and Minato led the Fourth Unit to provide support, the Ninja Allied Forces killed even more white-robed Divine Arts Master. With the unbridled absorption by Wind Demon God and Flame Phoenix Woman, the Ninja Allied Forces had completely overwhelmed the enemy in terms of military strength.
"Your men are almost all gone, and you still want to sacrifice them to strengthen your own forces?" Minato questioned.
Phoenix Woman then burst into loud laughter.
"Haha! Man! You're really something. I never thought you'd have a heart that cares about the enemy!"
"Don't worry! I will make their sacrifice even more worthwhile. As long as you are killed, their sacrifice will not have been in vain." Phoenix Woman's body then changed.
A massive surge of white Divine Power emanated from her abdomen, instantly enveloping Phoenix Woman's entire body. Phoenix Woman, who already possessed crimson wings and a body covered in feathers, transformed into a gigantic dragon, much like Wind Demon Body, which also resembled a bird.
"She's actually transformed into such a gigantic monster!?" Minato was also taken aback; Phoenix Woman had turned into a monster comparable in size to Tailed Beast.
"The Shikigami within me, the Immortal Phoenix, has entrusted all its power to me, along with the life force of those Divine Arts Masters! At this moment, the Divine Power within me is unprecedented! Even the Two Powers Shrine might not be my match!" the Phoenix Woman said with great pride.
"Two Powers Shrine?" Minato murmured, memorizing the information.
"Now! Let's see what you're capable of!?" Phoenix Woman then charged towards Minato at incredible speed, her flames creating a fiery path in the air.
"Such speed!" Minato then engaged in a fierce battle with the enormous Phoenix Woman.
Minato's speed was also impressive, but he was increasingly surprised as the Minato progressed. After all, he had activated his Minato Fox form, yet his opponent was able to fight him to a standstill.
"If this guy isn't the strongest among the Twelve Divine Palaces, then how strong would the strongest enemy be?" Minato was also somewhat worried.
"I felt all of their power!" Phoenix Woman screamed as she attacked Minato.
Minato also dodged quickly, his brow slightly furrowed.
"This can't go on. And it's obvious that even if we kill her, she'll quickly revive. Let's do it the way Kakuzu -sensei predicted."
Kakuzu told Minato that to kill Phoenix Woman, the first step was to destroy the core of Divine Power in Phoenix Woman chest. Once the Divine Power dissipated, not only would Phoenix Woman be unable to be resurrected, but her power would also be greatly weakened.
Minato then reduced his offensive, allowing the Phoenix Woman to attack him at close range, only defending and not attacking.
This gave Phoenix Woman the opportunity to attack, and she relentlessly attacked Minato. Phoenix Woman's attacks were extremely fierce, and ordinary people could not defend against them at all. Because Minato was at a disadvantage, he was occasionally killed by Phoenix Woman.
However, since Minato was Impure World Reincarnation being, his body recovered quickly.
"Ha! I didn't expect you to Immortal Body too? Don't worry, I can easily kill you more than ten thousand times! You will disappear sooner or later!" Phoenix Woman gradually lowered her guard, forgetting to defend herself and only attacking.
Gradually, Minato Namikaze found his opportunity.
"Keep dying!" Just as Phoenix Woman was about to kill Minato once again, Minato moved, his entire body vanished instantly, and then reappeared in front of Phoenix Woman.
Phoenix Woman raised her hand to attack, Minato disappeared once again, a golden Rasengan already launched from her hand.
"Bang!" The core of Divine Power in Phoenix Woman's chest was instantly destroyed.
Immediately afterwards, Phoenix Woman spat out a mouthful of blood, looking on in disbelief.
"You still have the strength to fight back? Weren't you supposed to be out of energy?"
"Sorry, these are all tactics. I did all this just to expose your weaknesses and make you neglect your core defenses," Minato, looking at Phoenix Woman.
However, Phoenix Woman chuckled, "That's right, you now possess the power to kill me. But I want to tell you that while the core in my chest is indeed my weakness, once the Divine Power here is destroyed, that guy will definitely appear."
"You thought you had defeated me, but you've unleashed an even more terrifying being!"
"Haha! Even if you were reborn ten million times, you still wouldn't be a match for this guy!"
"Hahahaha!" The Phoenix Woman's body was then completely devoured by the Divine Power in her chest.
At this point, Minato had also realized the seriousness of the problem.
Following this, the Phoenix Woman devoured the white-robed Divine Arts Master for the last time, and the remaining ten thousand Divine Arts Master on the battlefield have now been completely consumed by the Phoenix Woman.
At this point, Phoenix Woman was no longer Phoenix Woman, but a giant bird even larger than a Tailed Beast.
"Is that a phoenix?"
Kushina finished her battle and immediately went to Minato's side to support him.
"It seems that defeating Phoenix Woman has freed her Shikigami, and it's clear that her Shikigami is far more powerful than she is."
"Boom!!!" The phoenix casually exhaled a huge burst of flames, and the Ninja Allied Forces suffered heavy losses in an instant. Kushina and Minato immediately rushed forward.
Ordinary Taijutsu is completely ineffective against the phoenix, and Ninjutsu, before it can even be used, is completely melted by the flames surrounding it.
"This guy is very strong Minato is a bit unsure of what to do."
"Don't worry! You can do it!" Kushina patted Minato.
Minato then nodded.
"Everyone, we need your help!" Minato then switched back to Sage Fox Mode, Kushina beside him also switched to Sage and Tailed Beast Mode. Green Tailed Beast Ball began to condense in their hands.
"Please lend us all your chakra," Minato pleaded.
"No problem!!!"
"Leave it to us!"
"Defeat the enemy! And the battle will be won!"
Countless hands pressed against the backs of Minato and Kushina, while countless other hands pressed against the backs of others; the Ninja Allied Forces had become a sharp, pointed sword.
