Hermes, like most of the Gods, couldn't believe what he was seeing. An attack that was as strong as some Divine Weapons, was unleashed and was met by an equal force. But on top of that, those attacks were released with relative ease from both parties.
"Loki... Just what sort of being is that man?" Hermes asked while watching the standoff between Tiamat and the Hollowfied Kisuke.
Loki just shrugged her shoulders, "Who knows? What I'm sure of is that he's not a God."
Naturally, all the Gods present didn't know of any beings that were stronger than them, so Kisuke, Yoruichi, and Serafall's existences were an enigma to them as they considered their 'Father' and the being of Dungeon of Divine descent.
Zeus peeked at the other Chief Gods that were with him right now and used a bit of his ability to connect their minds, [Our guess of him being Chaos' agent is mostly confirmed at this point. I just didn't expect that it wasn't a Deity.]
[It doesn't change what we have to do. Were you able to contact the others?] Odin continued staring at the screen while stroking his beard.
[No. Whether they have a plan of their own or are just watching the situation unfold for now, I also don't know. It's also hard to guess which side they're going to take if this situation devolves any further.], Zeus then turned his eyes at Ouranos, [What about you? Were you able to separate the 'good' and the 'bad' ones?]
Ouranos stayed silent for a moment before replying, [I was, but I'm not a hundred percent sure. And even if I am, we can't move against them with our Avatars sealed. It seems that Chaos was able to see through our little ploy and made some adjustments to his plan.]
[So what do we do about these agents?] Odin suddenly asked. As they are one of the only remaining few that still remember Tiamat, they were betting that her power would be enough to thwart Chaos' agents. However, even though Tiamat seems to have the advantage, they aren't sure if she'll be able to hold on against these people who seem to know how to deal with her, [Tiamat can't be defeated... Or else, Chaos will be able to descend.]
Unbeknownst to them, Riveria was staring at them and intercepting their communications while also relaying everything to Kisuke.
[I see. So they don't want Chaos to come down here and Tiamat's presence is what's stopping him. For what reason, I wonder?]
[Why can't Chaos descend or why don't they want him down here?]
[Both. Either way, it's clear that the other Chief Gods who seem to remember Tiamat don't have the same opinion as these three. When the time is right, please make contact with Zeus-san.]
[Leave it to me.]

Kisuke and Tiamat stared at each other while the hellscape that was created was being washed away by Serafall's Ice Magic and the dense smoke that came from the burning matter being blown away by Yoruichi's Wind Magic.
Kisuke then pulled the blade out from his cane and it instantly changed into a sword with a flat end. At the same time, five drums made out of his bloody aura materialized behind him with three of them 'opened', "Scream, Benihime!"
A red sword arc glazed with golden energy was sent towards Tiamat and she responded with multiple Magic Circles appearing everywhere on her giant body, creating a strange network of barriers that covered her whole body.
The sword arc enlarged itself as it traveled and became as big as Tiamat when it was about to hit. With a loud explosion that was only slightly weaker than the first clash, the arc slammed against the barrier, cracking it. But that's about it.
Nevertheless, it wasn't for naught since the main purpose of his attack just now was to feel her out, [She's mostly stationary so most of her attacks will be Magic in nature. Her barrier is also very powerful due to it automatically strengthening the part where the most pressure is. Yoruichi, let's attack her from opposite sides. Serafall, continue containing her domain's expansion and if possible, freeze that black mud entirely.]
With a bit of strategy finally on the table, the three of them immediately moved with Kisuke initiating the attack once again by gathering Cero on the tip of his blade and combining it with Benihime's natural ability. With a swing of his sword, another sword arc emerged, but this time, much smaller and sharper.
Tiamat's eyes widened slightly at the sight of this and increased the durability of her barrier while also conjuring hundreds of Magic Circles several kilometers on top of their heads.
Kisuke ignored the threat that was coming from above and kept strengthening his attack. The sword arc slammed against the barrier once again and on this round, there was no explosion with two forces just intensely vibrating and sending out small shockwaves. Kisuke could see that energy behind the barrier was being concentrated on the point of contact.
At the same time, Yoruichi was able to sneak behind Tiamat, "Shunko! Raijin Senkei!"
With her Bankai still activated, Yoruichi used the added strength and speed of her Shunko to swing the thin blade in her hand that was almost a million tonnes heavy, "Grrr!!!" Yoruichi gritted her teeth and felt like her arms were about to be ripped off since the influence of gravity didn't just stay on the dagger.
Thankfully, a second within this state was enough for her to slam the heaviest blade known in the world onto Tiamat's barrier and manage to crack it instantly.
The pure physical attack was able to instantly smash through the weakest part of the barrier and the cascading collapse extended to the other side of the barrier where it was stopping Kisuke's attack.
Kisuke used this chance to pour more power behind his attack while also communicating to the girls, [Don't worry about me. Just get out of range. I'll be fine.]
