A gigantic spiderweb covered the sky over the entire battlefield.
Crossing strands divided the space into small sections, making it difficult for anything flying through them to move freely.
There were so many webs that they even blocked the view. Everywhere you looked, all you could see were layers of tangled white threads.
Tamamo-no-Mae hooked Ibaraki-doji with one of her fox tails to keep him from falling into the web, while using Fox Fire to burn the threads around them and open up more room to move.
But after the Fox Fire burned through the threads, they quickly grew back.
Ugou Mirai was also using the Treasure Mallet and Uchiwa Fan to deal with the threads around her, as if she were chopping down rapidly growing branches.
In this web, wings were not an advantage. They could even become a liability.
Unfortunately, her attacks barely affected the threads. They were incredibly tough, shrugging off blades and axes alike. Only fire could hurt them.
Ootengu and Ibaraki-doji were both terrible with fire, which left them in an awkward spot.
In the middle of the web, Alcmene reappeared, but her form had changed.
Her upper body was still that of a woman. A faint layer of fine black scales covered her skin like a tight-fitting suit, showing off her perfect figure.
Just looking at her upper half would have made countless men's hearts race. But add her lower half, and they'd be left completely stunned.
Alcmene's lower body had transformed entirely into a spider's, with a thorax bearing eight legs joined to a round abdomen.
At the end of her abdomen were three pairs of spinnerets, continuously spraying out liquid Bone Protein.
The Bone Protein instantly solidified on contact with the air, forming fine, sticky, tough, elastic threads.
Alcmene didn't like this
