"Not bad human, being capable of detecting our presence is very commendable" Spoke a giant man with long spiky hair resembling that of Madara and he had a star-shaped tattoo on his cheek as well as brown eyes. Just by standing still, he was exuding a very tyrannical aura in his surroundings as if he would bite anyone that gets close to him, and beside him stood a man with long flowing black hair and black eyes that almost seems like an abyss and anyone that stared into them felt as if they were about to lose themselves... His body was on the thinner side compared to the other one but his aura was very dark and eerie scaring many people…
There were the Dragon God Seiryu and the Demon king Shuten-Doji! The rulers of the beast world and the demon world respectively...
"A beast can tell when another beast is nearby" Muttered Mukai with a smirk but the tyrannical looking man simply shook his head and said "You can only qualify as a cub young man" before he took a step in Mukai's direction only to be stopped by another rift opening and Izumo came out of it, this time with his real body and said "Oy Seiryu, this guy is for me to deal with, go play with the rest instead"
Seiryu stared at Izumo calmly before he turned to the man beside him and said "Let's make this quick Doji"
Doji nodded calmly at him before he turned to Amatsu and Izumo and said "The master is truly mad this time, don't waste too much time"
Izumo's green eyes shined slightly with an eerie light when he glanced at Doji's abyss-like eyes, while the seal created by the sky stone shivered slightly to the astonishment of the monkeys and it seemed kike Doji's words reached Amatsu easily…
By this point, Bakorio opened his eyes and glanced at the newcomers that arrived to get him and his eyes were instantly attracted to Seiryu as his Jikininki helped him feel much clearer than anyone just what kind of beast they were about to face so he said without hesitation
"Kurama, merge with the other half inside Minato and use your full power to defeat that black-eyed man"
Kurama nodded reluctantly and went to Minato as Bakorio kept giving orders quickly "Jiraiya, Fugaku, Tsunade, and Itachi. Assist Mukai against Izumo! Hiruzen, keep the death reaper from interfering in the fight. Shisui, and the black tortoise sage, assist Minato against that Doji person. Endai, I will entrust you guys with keeping that woman sealed. The rest of the ninja, split into 3 groups and assist whoever needs help the most…"
"Yes!" Replied everyone and they were delighted to see Bakorio back to normal since he was probably their biggest chance of surviving this mess
"Don't worry about the dead, we can revive them later" Yelled Bakorio to rise the morale even further and it indeed worked as the people felt a weight being removed from their hearts...
Seiryu smiled slightly seeing the ninjas following Bakorio's orders before he said "You think you can take me on your own?"
Bakorio stared at him coldly and replied "I will do whatever it takes to stop you"
Seiryu had a toothy grin showing a full set of sharp teeth as he said "I wonder when was the last time I was underestimated like this" then he disappeared and reappeared in front of Bakorio sending a terrifying kick at him… No one was able to react to this speed other than Minato who just merged with the other half of Kurama and became a full Jinchuriki… But he could only follow the movement with his eyes and couldn't save Bakorio in time.

However, Bakorio didn't need anyone to save him, or at least so he thought as he activated his Giant Susanoo to create an armor over his body at the last second to protect himself. However, to his surprise, the armor was easily broken through by Seiryu's kick and connected with Bakorio's stomach sending him flying through the air while coughing a fountain of blood!
"AGHH" Bakorio grimaced as he crashed into countless trees before his body came to a stop and he could feel that he would have died if not for the devil's armor set he was wearing that greatly enhanced his defense…
Minato and the others wanted to offer their help to him but they had their own fights to deal with as Doji made his move and took out a simple-looking sword before he used something only Bakorio could have recognized… it was sharp release! And it was way higher in level than his own as he sent multiple fast slashes at Minato and his helpers!
Meanwhile, Izumo unleashed his true strength as well in the form of countless deadly projectiles that were launched at Mukai and the rest covering any path of escape they might have had, some of them were blocked by Mukai while others required both Fugaku and Itachi to use their Susanoo's, although the latter's was still in a skeletal form and Fugaku's Susanoo was easily penetrated by the projectiles. Although it helped in slowing and redirecting them away which saved them from directly dying.
Bakorio stood up from the rubble while coughing up blood and he couldn't help but wonder in astonishment 'How can they be this strong… They are pretty much at Kaguya's level… what of their master's level of power then?' A sense of fear gripped Bakorio's heart for the first time as he realized just how naïve he was for thinking that he could easily deal with this darkness…
Then Seiryu appeared in front of him and said "Watch young man, the strength of those that follow the darkness"
'Indeed, none of them had yet to use their darkness… This fight is doomed' thought Bakorio as he summoned his full perfect Susanoo and made it wear his legendary sword, but Seiryu simply jumped all the way to the forehead of the Susanoo before he could do anything and punched him through it and into the ground before he sealed his body using a weird energy and said
"Just watch the show silently"
Bakorio gritted his teeth at the powerlessness he was feeling as nothing he used worked, Yomi no Kuni was easily deflected, his Susanoo was easily broken through, and he was given no chance to open his gates as Seiryu seemed like he could read his intentions easily…
Then, Bakorio watched how all of his preparations slowly crumbled, Amatsu broke out from her seal and started fighting the four monkey sages and soon after easily started killing them one by one…
Minato, Shisui, and The black tortoise sage tried their best to defeat Doji, but the latter simply seemed unbeatable as Shisui's Kotoamatsukami didn't work on him at all rendering him useless and was soon dismembered by Doji's sword that moved at scary speeds that even surpassed Minato's speed in his full Jinchuriki mode while using sage chakra as well…
As a last attempt, the black tortoise sage used a weird treasure that slowed down time and allowed Minato to land a direct hit on Doji's body consisting of none other than an empowered Rasenshuriken!… But it only caused some surface injuries on his body as he protected himself with a weird chakra that Bakorio didn't recognize and he quickly recovered and followed up by killing the tortoise sage while Minato used a last chance attempt and teleported him into an active volcano…
A location he prepared beforehand filled with explosive seals that he instantly activated before teleporting away once more back to the battlefield and went to fight the now free Amatsu that was killing the monkey sages…
Meanwhile, Izumo soon made it clear that no one could approach him without facing death, and Mukai who couldn't open all 8th gates yet struggled continuously to defeat him but in the end, just 7 gates weren't enough for such a monster and he was soon defeated along with the rest of his helpers…
Bakorio watched all of this with a heavy feeling in his heart as he engraved every instant of this battlefield deep in it… Then he stood up slowly despite Seiryu's seals and said "I will make sure this will be a fruitful experience"
'Hmmm, how could he stand despite all of my seals?' Wondered Seiryu who knew just how terrifying those seals were… The seals created by him, the dragon god!
