"Kurama just said that the Ten-Tails absorbs Natural Energy to evolve. Asana, Minato, do you have any way to stop it?" Kushina asked.
Minato Namikaze shook his head, "I don't have any idea."
"In my perception, the Ten-Tails has been continuously absorbing Natural Energy. It didn't stop even when attacked; it just used the absorbed Natural Energy to recover its injuries.
I think to stop the Ten-Tails from evolving, we need to attack continuously, forcing it to use the absorbed Natural Energy for recovery," Asana suggested.
"That's the only option now. Asana, your Truth-Seeking Orb should deal the most damage to the Ten-Tails. Kushina, assist Asana's attack. I'll be responsible for transferring your attacks onto the Ten-Tails. Shisui, you are responsible for guarding the surroundings and keeping the Masked Man and Uchiha Madara away."
After hearing Minato Namikaze's words, everyone nodded in agreement and began to act.
The result was obvious: Asana and Kushina's continuous combination attacks forced the Ten-Tails to use a large amount of Natural Energy to recover its injuries.
The speed of its evolution was affected, and the previously dormant Ten-Tails went berserk. Accompanied by a roar, the ground began to shake, lightning flashed across the sky, and violent winds swept in. The entire battlefield instantly turned into a scene of apocalypse.
"The Ten-Tails did this? How is this possible?" Minato Namikaze said with a shocked expression, looking at the pitch-black sky.
"This is a Jutsu of the Ten-Tails, Heaven and Earth Transformation. You must know that the Ten-Tails is the progenitor of Chakra in this world, possessing terrifying power capable of swallowing oceans, tearing the earth, and moving mountains. Doing this is too simple for it.
You actually dared to attack it while it was absorbing Natural Energy, how ridiculous!" Uchiha Madara said with a hint of mockery from the air.
"Madara, are you planning to use this monster to achieve the Jutsu you spoke of?" Minato Namikaze asked.
"Don't be impatient. What I intend to do, you will naturally find out in the end." After saying that, Uchiha Madara flew directly to Obito's side.
"You're here," Obito said, glancing at Uchiha Madara.
Only then did Uchiha Madara notice that one of Obito's eyes had somehow turned into a Rinnegan.
"Obito, your eye..."
"This is your eye. I borrowed it from Nagato."
Uchiha Madara was stunned by the reply. Borrowed it from Nagato? What did that mean? Weren't Obito and Nagato enemies?
However, before Uchiha Madara could ask again, Obito performed hand signs, and a tube appeared behind the Ten-Tails, inserting itself into Obito's back, connecting Obito and the Ten-Tails.
Uchiha Madara felt increasingly uneasy, so he quickly performed the same hand signs and connected himself to the Ten-Tails.
While the two were connecting to the Ten-Tails, the scope of the Heaven and Earth Transformation continued to expand, and the berserk Ten-Tails announced its return to the entire world.
Before long, lightning and fierce winds swept across more than half of the Ninja World.
The skies over the entire Ninja World were instantly covered by thick dark clouds, followed by thunder, lightning, wind, and rain.
At Mount Myōboku, the Great Toad Sage opened his eyes once again as the Heaven and Earth Transformation began.
"I feel its power again. It is truly a painful memory." After speaking, the Great Toad Sage fell back into slumber.
In Ryūchi Cave, the White Snake Sage sighed, having also sensed the revival of the Ten-Tails.
Shikkotsu Forest, one of the Three Great Holy Lands, immediately contacted Tsunade after the Slug Sage sensed the Ten-Tails' revival.
Meanwhile, in an unknown space, Uchiha En was fighting Takegami Ōtsutsuki.
Takegami Ōtsutsuki realized at this moment that he must have had a Flying Thunder God Mark left on him by Ujiha, and because of this mark, he couldn't escape Uchiha En's pursuit.
Takegami Ōtsutsuki wanted to use the Rinnegan to clear this mark, but for some reason, he couldn't find the mark's presence.
The mark only had a Chakra reaction the moment it was etched onto his body, and the subsequent Chakra reaction disappeared. Takegami Ōtsutsuki remembered where the mark was placed, but there was no mark there, which gave him a huge headache.
But Uchiha En and Ujiha had indeed tracked him down.
Since he couldn't run, Takegami Ōtsutsuki decided to fight desperately.
He raised his hand, intending to gouge out his own Rinnegan.
However, Uchiha En had experienced the fight with Urashiki and already knew the Ōtsutsuki Clan's fighting style.
Uchiha En naturally wouldn't let that happen. He immediately went all out, freezing the space and time around Takegami Ōtsutsuki.
He then instantly teleported in front of Takegami Ōtsutsuki. The Truth-Seeking Orbs behind him transformed into six black rods, which were stabbed into Takegami Ōtsutsuki's body under Uchiha En's manipulation.
When Takegami Ōtsutsuki broke free from the freeze, he discovered that the flow of Chakra within his body had been restricted by Uchiha En's black rods.
"Bastard! You damn native, how dare you—"
*Slap* Uchiha En slapped Takegami Ōtsutsuki across the face.
"Stop calling me a native, it's annoying. Why don't you think about your current situation? You're currently in the hands of me, this 'native'." After speaking, Uchiha En performed hand signs.
He combined the Six Paths Sealing Jutsu he learned from Uncle Sasuke with the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style.
"Six Paths: Super Eight Trigrams Sealing!"
*Crack, crack, crack* Accompanied by the sound of space shattering, fragments of the surrounding space slowly solidified around Takegami Ōtsutsuki's body.
Takegami Ōtsutsuki was sealed just like that.
"That should do it." Saying this, Uchiha En put the sealed Takegami Ōtsutsuki into a Storage Ring.
Since Takegami Ōtsutsuki was currently in a state where he couldn't breathe or move, essentially no different from being dead, he could be placed inside the Storage Ring.
"En, I sense the power of the Ten-Tails. Has it been revived?" Nijo asked after Uchiha En put away Takegami Ōtsutsuki.
Uchiha En nodded and said, "Yes, the Ten-Tails should have been revived. The Heaven and Earth Transformation outside is also caused by it."
"En, when are we going to the battlefield? I want to see what the true Ten-Tails looks like."
"Takegami's matter is resolved, we'll go now." After speaking, Uchiha En's figure disappeared from the space.
On the other side, the Shinobi Allied Forces led by Fifth Raikage Darui encountered a storm, but the Shinobi Allied Forces had no intention of stopping to take shelter. They ran towards the final battlefield, heads down, enduring the heavy rain without a word.
In contrast, Jiraiya and his group seemed much more comfortable. There was no storm in their direction, only strong winds, which didn't affect the Shinobi Allied Forces' advance much. Their unit was getting closer and closer to the final battlefield.
Under the influence of the Heaven and Earth Transformation, the Natural Energy of the Ninja World began to riot and then surged into the Ten-Tails' body as if receiving a signal. A few minutes later, the Ten-Tails' body gradually began to change.
It gradually transformed from its initial prone state into a skinny, upright form. The Ten-Tails behind it also changed to resemble human palms, an ear appeared on its head, and its eyes moved slightly upward.
(P.S. In the manga, the Ten-Tails used the Heaven and Earth Transformation only in this state. I have modified it here.)
"Kurama, the Ten-Tails has evolved, hasn't it!" Kushina asked the Nine-Tailed.
"Yes, the Ten-Tails now shouldn't just lie there obediently like it did before."
