''Personally, my lord emperor, I disagree.'' stated General Guderian. ''I mean no disrespect to your person but I am on the opinion that sending tens of thousands into battle against... this ten tailed monstrosity is a bad idea.''

''It was a stupid plan to begin with but given the tight schedule, it was all I had.'' Naruto admitted. ''You're the better strategist so what do you propose, Guderian my old friend?''

''Firstly, I say we send in two divisions worth of troops along with an armored battalion supported by a battalion of knights and the air force. Next, we set up defensive barriers to avoid the ten tailed beast from inflicting any unnecessary damage. When the beast is contained, we send in the rest of the army. The allied shinobi forces would already suffer heavy casualties by this point and when fresh troops arrive, they would have lost the morale to fight. This time, 90% of the Elemental Nations is already under Blackfyre rule and they'll be facing well over twenty million soldiers as well as hundreds of thousands of knights.'' General Guderian proposed.

''I second this.'' said General Maximilian Rukossovsky. ''The ten tails is more powerful than we think it to be and it can easily one shot the warships. Even those that are of the dreadnought type. After the barrier is secured, then emperor Konstantine, prince Daemon and their units can contain the beast. After the battle is won, we go in with full force and win this war.''

Naruto noted the looks of hesitation on both Guderian's and Rukossovsky's faces in facing the ten tailed beast head on. They relied heavily on him, Daemon and the strongest knights to first deal with it. The advanced weaponry, destructive vehicles and warships and professional troops and knights could deal with ninjas but not the ten tails. Naruto couldn't blame the generals however. All of their progress could be rendered useless if the ten tails was on a rampage. It would result in the deaths of millions of good men and women of the imperial armed forces. Naruto knew that fact and just took a deep breath. ''Very well. Tell the mages to prepare the chakra shields. Daemon, get your knights ready. We're winning a war.'' Naruto ordered.

''My lord emperor, recon flight has confirmed that there is one reanimation on the battlefield. Madara Uchiha.'' a naval technician told Naruto.

''Unexpected but nothing that requires change. I will face my great grandfather myself in battle.'' Naruto along with Daemon left the war room to prepare for the battle.

Kakashi was breathing heavily. The front was a disaster for the allied shinobi forces. First, Madara Uchiha, the real Madara, had revealed himself and utterly humiliated his fellow kage. Second was the fact that Menma was weak from the fighting. Third, the death of Shikaku Nara, the alliance's best strategist, fourth was the loss of a quarter of their remaining shinobi and fifth was the ten tails. Yamato was captured and his chakra was taken to grow tens of thousands more white Zetsu clones. He and Might Guy stood near each other, the ten tails just a little over a kilometer from their position. Obito was revealed to be 'Tobi', a fact that greatly shocked them both. Right now, they needed a miracle to win this battle and as if the gods heard their prayer, a miracle did came.

Missiles came in with bombers and jet fighters, heading straight for the ten tailed monster. The Blackfyres were there to help them out or so they hoped. The ten tails roared in pain and the explosions forced Madara and Obito to exit the beast. Then, tanks and armored personnal carriers came with hundreds of imperial troopers. Helicopters flew down to deliver vehicles, artillery and troops. Far behind, the mages set up the chakra shields and Naruto and Daemon entered the battlefield. The imperial troopers charged at the white Zetsu horde, guns blazing and shells shot. These were not normal soldiers, they were actually penal battalions. People who committed crimes sent to prison who were recruited into the army to earn their freedom. Basically cannon fodder and the higher ups did not care about them. Their numbers weren't even put into the official invasion force as their only purpose was to be meat shields. Now, they were used to take the fight head on.
