Kaguya and Tushan Honghong worked to stop two enormous meteorites from striking Tushan’s inner city, but the rocks proved unusually resilient. As Honghong’s attacks barely cracked one meteorite, Kaguya prepared to use Amenominaka.

Xiao Tian, Tushan Yaya, and Wangquan Baye battled Dark Golden Dawn after it possessed Red Dragon, but its defenses and multiple chances to revive made it difficult to defeat.
