Gamamaru took a deep breath and then his face turned serious as he ordered, " Ancestors help me vanquish this demoness who is destroying this world."

With Gamamaru's command the sages all sprang into action. Some sages brandished their weapons , some threw out S-class ninjutsu like they were nothing, and some simply used their natural energy to throw out energy beams.

While most of the sages attacked some weak and young sages quite distanced themselves and began to rescue the clansmen who were caught in the fight and also try to erect a sealing barrier that would trap Izanami for good.

Watching this display of perfect coordination, Izanami snorted. 'Heh these toads sure like to act like bigshots ' and so Izanami, without even using any handseals, waved her hands and crushed space.

And this space crack absorbed all the attacks. This also destroyed the barrier the toad sages just deployed.

This made the sages feel the pressure doubled. It's not that they didn't know about Izanami's power. After all, this kid was the first human in history to create her own senjutsu style that defied all common sense.

She is the progenitor of the human sage clan who rose to fame defeating her two older brothers and dominated an entire era by herself. And the Toad Clan, who had firm ties with the Sage of Six Paths, understood how formidable she was. That is why they went all out. But even then, they didn't expect that they still underestimated her.

" Now that you have made your move, it's my turn now " Izanami as a cold smile appeared on her face.

She took one step forward, and the scenery changed drastically. The sky turned purple, and time and space lost all meaning.

" Welcome to the Pure Land; I hope you will enjoy your permanent stay here " Izanami spoke as her hair turned white and her outfit changed to her queen form. Since they are in the pure land, Izanami can torture them as much as she wants.

Returning to her adult form, Izanami cracked her knuckles and took another step forward. Then two katanas appeared in her hands as Izanami spoke in her cold, indifferent voice.

" [Sun Breathing : Solar Halo Dragon Dance ] "

Dark flames bathed Izanami, making her look like a goddess of fire. And with another step, she disappeared from sight and appeared behind a young toad sage. Then the next second the sage was decapitated into two halves and dropped dead and turned into ashes after being devoured by the dark flames.

And Izanami disappeared again, and then soon another toad sage was killed again. And seeing their members were being cut down like trash, the older sages could no longer sit still. They tried to save these young sages, but ultimately under Izanami's blade, they could only feel intense despair.

Gamamaru, seeing their morale was dropping, knew that he had to do something. Otherwise, they might just become fish on the chopping block.

Gamamaru clapped his hands and took a deep breath and then shouted, " Water Style: Sea God's Judgment "

A stream of high-pressure water sprang from Gamamaru's mouth, heading straight towards Izanami.

Izanami sensing the attack stopped her slaughter and calmly turned around and swung her sword at the ninjutsu. The water attack was immediately evaporated by the dark flames.
