At first.
The Otsutsuki [Initial Stronghold Base] had been jointly guarded by the [Shadow Elder] and Otsutsuki Kureya, the [Legion Commander].
Later, that [Legion Commander] had been transferred to the [Left Flank Coordinated War Zone].
Now that the [Evil God]'s true body had revealed itself, the [Shadow Elder] had left as well.

The rear section was the [Giant Warehouse] used to store supplies.
What Natsume needed to destroy was, naturally, the [Ultra-Long-Range Worm Bridge] in
