Using the kunai he had placed in advance, Minato Namikaze instantly appeared behind Kaguya with the Flying Thunder God space-time jutsu. At the same time, Tobirama Senju, who had already marked Minato's body, also used the Flying Thunder God technique to appear beside him the moment Minato reached Kaguya's back.
"Water Style: Severing Wave."
"Sage Art: Rasengan."
Tobirama Senju unleashed a rapid, high-pressure stream of water from his mouth, attacking Kaguya. This water stream had such high pressure and power that it was like a blade, even sharper than one, capable of slicing through both rock and steel.
However, the Severing Wave seemed ineffective against Kaguya; the water stream vanished before reaching her, as if absorbed. The thought that she might have the ability to absorb jutsu flashed through Tobirama's mind.
Originally, it was thought that the Rasengan would be as ineffective as the Severing Wave, but unexpectedly, it struck Kaguya's back, causing her to stumble. Although it didn't have a significant effect on her, they learned an important secret from this.
"Normal ninjutsu is ineffective against her; only taijutsu and senjutsu can cause her harm," Tobirama said gravely, using the Flying Thunder God technique to leave. His extensive battle experience allowed him to quickly and accurately analyze the opponent's abilities.
"Be careful."
As soon as his words fell, he heard a loud shout from Hashirama Senju. Tobirama's heart skipped a beat as he turned to see that Kaguya had somehow appeared beside him. When he tried to use the Flying Thunder God to escape, it was already too late.
With a "pfft" sound, a bone spike pierced through his back and out through his chest.
"All-Killing Ash Bones."
"So fast."
Tobirama's eyes widened as his body began to crumble and decay, disintegrating into dust. A gentle breeze blew, scattering his remains without a trace.
In the blink of an eye, Kaguya had dealt with two Hokage.
Not only Tobirama and Minato but all the ninjas on the battlefield were shocked. The legendary four powerful Hokage were no match for this silver-haired girl, and two of them had already been defeated.
"Be careful; she has the ability to prevent the reanimation jutsu from reviving them," Hashirama Senju said gravely, having noticed that the recently shattered Hiruzen Sarutobi and Tobirama had not been resurrected.
"Understood." Minato Namikaze's expression was equally solemn.
"Let's go."
Hashirama shouted, launching himself like an arrow towards Kaguya, quickly forming hand seals.
"Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands."
Amidst the violent trembling of the earth, a gigantic Buddha statue with countless arms rose from the ground, sending rocks flying and dust billowing. The statue was immense, hundreds of meters tall, resembling a small mountain from afar. Hashirama, standing atop the Buddha, looked like a tiny black dot.
"Ha!"
With Hashirama's shout, the colossal Buddha charged at Kaguya, causing the ground to shake and mountains to crumble as debris flew and dust enveloped the air.
Despite its massive size, the Buddha was not cumbersome but remarkably swift. In the blink of an eye, it was upon Kaguya.
Hashirama's fingers flew as he formed hand seals rapidly.
"Top Transformed Buddha."
As the words were spoken, countless giant arms extended from the colossal Buddha statue, blocking out the sky and even the moonlight, as they struck down towards Kaguya.
Kaguya's face remained expressionless, her clear eyes icy as she saw the attack approaching. She did not retreat; instead, she advanced boldly. The fierce wind caused her garments to billow and her silver hair to flutter.
Kaguya's flawless, snow-white arm lifted, and suddenly numerous chakra-infused fists shot forth like a storm, emitting a brilliant light as they collided with the Buddha's massive fists.
"Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack."
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Thunderous explosions resounded continuously like the crackling of frying beans. The ground shook violently as wood fragments scattered and stones flew in all directions. A thick dust cloud was propelled skyward, while the shockwave's gale-force winds swept across the entire battlefield, causing the ninjas to lose their footing, with some being blown away.
When the dust settled, the figures of two individuals emerged. Kaguya, with her long silver hair, remained unharmed, hovering calmly in the air. In contrast, Hashirama Senju was half-kneeling on the ground, with the left side of his body missing, appearing quite disheveled. The enormous Buddha had already been shattered in the battle, leaving only piles of wood debris scattered across the ground.
Hashirama was filled with shock. This was the first time his "Top Transformed Buddha" technique had been directly defeated, and disastrously so. Although his Edo Tensei body was partly to blame, he had to admit the overwhelming power of the girl before him.
At this moment, a golden flash appeared in front of Kaguya. It was Minato Namikaze, holding a Rasengan, aiming it at Kaguya's chest.
"Sage Art: Rasengan."
Kaguya remained unmoved, ignoring the Minato in front of her, and instead turned to lift her arm. Indeed, the Minato before her disappeared instantly—it was merely an illusion, while his true form appeared behind her.
Seeing Kaguya's palm facing him, Minato's eyes narrowed as he prepared to use the Flying Thunder God technique to escape once more, but it was too late.
The Truth-Seeking Ball in Kaguya's palm suddenly burst forth like black lightning, instantly pulverizing the Minato in front of her into dust.
In a short time, three of the four Hokage had been taken out, with one severely injured.
As everyone was stunned by Kaguya's overwhelming power, a feminine silhouette dashed towards her. With long, straight black hair, clear white eyes, and a graceful figure, it was none other than Hinata Hyuga.
"Sister," Hinata called out as she ran towards Kaguya, tears welling up in her eyes. "Don't do this."
"Don't go!"
Neji, Hiashi Hyuga, and Tsunade were all shocked and broke into a cold sweat, knowing that Kaguya was ruthless and merciless at the moment. They quickly rushed forward, trying to pull Hinata back, but it was too late.
As Hinata ran closer, Kaguya frowned slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in her icy eyes. She slowly raised her arm, with the Truth-Seeking Balls floating around her palm, aimed at the approaching Hinata.
