The pink-coloured Susano'o rapidly increased in size, chakra sinew, muscles and flesh propagating across its skeleton until they culminated in the formation of a large pair of breasts, which were quickly covered by its suit of armour. The chakra titan clapped its hands, slowly pulling apart its palms to reveal a naginata.
Sakura gave the long polearm an experimental twirl.
"SHA!"
Without warning, she brought the naginata down, cleaving through the cloud of flying puppets. Most flew out of the way just in time, but an unlucky few were too slow to escape. The weapon's massive blade crashed through their frames, shattering them into a thousand pieces and sending them spiralling down to the earth below in a rain of their own mechanical guts.
Toneri frowned slightly.
The Uchiha girl was making short work of his puppets, and before long, he would be left without any defences. He still hadn't had enough time to adapt to his new eyes, so for now, he was no match for her… but now that there were fewer puppets, he could control the remaining ones more skilfully. His opponent had to be careful with her strikes or risk hitting the unconscious Hyūga clan members, so while she had to restrain herself, he could press the attack as much as he wanted…
While most of the puppets remained at a distance to pepper the Susano'o with green chakra projectiles, the remainder sallied forth and swarmed around it, slipping into its blind spots and striking at the weak points in its armour with glowing blades of chakra. However, whittling down Sakura's stamina by forcing her to constantly replenish her defences was pointless, given that she had more chakra than she knew what to do with.
Sakura and the Susano'o thrust their arms into the air as one, causing their breasts to jiggle wildly. They then began spinning their naginata over their heads, whipping up a twister that sucked up the puppets nipping at their joints and sent them spiralling into the stratosphere, but by the time they had eliminated the pests, Toneri and the remaining puppets and hostages had already flown away.
"Get back here!" Sakura shouted. "I'm not done with you!"
The wings on her Susano'o's back gave a mighty beat, and she shot towards the fleeing Toneri like an arrow, shedding crimson tears as she pushed her pupils to pump out a torrent of hypnotic chakra into the titan's form.
"AME NO UZUME!"
Over the entire course of their battle, Sakura had never once ceased bombarding the Ōtsutsuki puppets with hypnotic chakra, but this plainly was not working. The first reason was that the Energy Vessel connecting Toneri to his puppets prevented Sakura's yin chakra from reaching its ultimate target, and the second was that her assumption that he wasn't truly blind was wrong.
Toneri couldn't see through his puppets' mechanical eyes; having had his eyes removed at birth, he had never seen anything in his life. It was impossible to attack him using sight as a medium, even though his optic nerves were now working again. Beaming candid pictures of boobies into his mind when he didn't know the first thing about the concept of shapes and colours was completely pointless.
However, what Toneri did have was a working pair of ears…
Sakura extended her index finger, wincing slightly as the phalange burst from its tip and lengthened, holes appearing along its surface at regular intervals. When the finger bone stopped growing, she snapped off the excess and raised her brand-new bone flute to her lips. At the same time, the Susano'o's naginata shortened into an ornately carved flute, and it positioned the mouthpiece within the mouth gap in its tengu mask…
"TWEET!"
Although Sakura was still fully capable of electrifying piezoelectric crystals with the Chidori in order to magnify its chirping sounds to intolerable levels, music was still the best way to achieve mental domination, if the goal wasn't to rupture the eardrums of everyone within a radius of a kilometre. Gone were the days of tinkling bells attached to senbon; now, Sakura could create something far more sophisticated!
Toneri and the puppets under his direct control began swerving in mid-air as Sakura's genjutsu forced them to turn around and look at her, but he otherwise maintained his initial trajectory. Translating a vision-based genjutsu into an auditory one was no mean feat, so she would need to give him another push.
Sakura crossed her fingers…
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
…and twenty Shadow Clones appeared in plumes of white smoke on the Susano'o's head, enough to field a small chamber orchestra. One covered herself in bells created using Crystal Style, while another made herself wooden clappers using Wood Style. Another inflated her chest using the Expansion Jutsu and allowed her neighbour to use her breasts as taiko drums, and the rest simply filled their lungs with air and began singing.
"One, two, three, four! Ame-no-Uzume!"
The air itself thrummed with chakra as Sakura, her Susano'o and her Shadow Clans blasted a shockwave of earworms towards Toneri, overloading his senses. He desperately tried shutting off the jaunty tunes, but Sakura's chakra seemed to have turned into molasses in his pathways, stopping him from cycling his chakra.
"…fire…!" he said through gritted teeth, relinquishing control of his puppets and returning them to autonomous battle mode, before finally losing control of his body. "Fire, now…!"
Toneri and his puppets abruptly stopped and turned towards Sakura as the entire world seemed to vanish from his senses, leaving only the gaggle of girls in the inky void that his sensing jutsu had become. He was powerless; every single Kakashi of chakra in his body was under Sakura's control.
"I have… called an orbital strike… on my position…" Toneri somehow managed to spit out through his locked jaws. "Feel free… to finish me off… if you don't believe me…!"
Without warning, the puppets holding the unconscious Hyūga rapidly ascended into the sky, obeying Toneri's final command before he had severed their connection. At the same time, Sakura felt an enormous surge of chakra from the moon above… the Giant Tenseigan Energy Vessel at the heart of the moon was taking aim!
