"It's just bigger, that's all. I can easily suppress you."
Senju Hashirama looked at the massive Ten-Tails with calm confidence.
He closed his eyes—
and when he opened them again—
he had already entered Sage Mode.
Without hesitation, he formed hand seals.
"Sage Art: Gates of the Great God!"
In an instant—
massive red torii-style wooden gates appeared in the sky.
One after another—
they crashed down onto the Ten-Tails.
Each gate pinned down a tail.
"Seal—Ten!"
With Hashirama's command—
all ten tails were sealed.
The Cataclysm stopped instantly.
The Ten-Tails struggled—
trying to tear the gates apart—
but Hashirama simply smiled.
"Breaking my seal isn't that easy."
"Gates of the Great God: Seal Head and Body!"
More gates descended—
four smaller ones pinned its limbs—
and a massive one crushed down onto its neck.
Boom.
The Ten-Tails was slammed flat onto the ground—
completely immobilized.
It struggled—
but couldn't move at all.
Seeing this, Senju Tobirama finally relaxed.
He turned to his brother with admiration.
"As expected of you, Big Brother. Even something like that was suppressed instantly."
"If it kept using that previous attack, we'd be in real trouble."
Hashirama shook his head.
"This is only temporary. If we don't destroy it, it will break free sooner or later."
"Tobirama, use your strongest attack. Let's see if we can eliminate it."
"No problem."
Tobirama stepped forward confidently.
"Just watch."
He began forming hand seals.
"Water Release: Spear of the Sea God!"
A massive amount of seawater gathered behind him—
compressing—
condensing—
until it formed a gigantic spear.
With a sharp motion—
he hurled it forward.
"Die, monster!"
The spear struck the Ten-Tails—
—and shattered instantly.
The water splashed harmlessly across its body—
like a bath.
Silence.
Tobirama froze.
"…No effect at all?"
"This thing's defense… is insane."
Hashirama looked at him—
his expression turning strange.
Was that really my brother?
Tobirama coughed awkwardly.
"Don't worry… I still have one more move."
"Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags!"
He pulled out a stack of explosive tags.
Hashirama went completely silent.
…What kind of serious ninja uses explosive tags like this?
But Tobirama didn't care.
He charged forward.
"Monster! Take this!"
Just then—
Isamu's consciousness returned.
The moment it did—
he instantly seized control of the Ten-Tails.
The beast didn't resist.
It obeyed completely.
However—
while his anger returned—
his rationality had not.
"Charge!!"
Standing atop the Ten-Tails—
Isamu shouted wildly.
"Charge! Charge! Charge!!"
…Nothing happened.
The Ten-Tails didn't move at all.
It was still pinned to the ground.
From the outside—
it looked ridiculous.
Hashirama couldn't help but laugh.
"…What is he doing?"
After shouting for a while—
Isamu finally leaned down—
and looked around.
That's when he saw it—
The Ten-Tails—
completely pinned—
like a helpless animal.
His expression darkened.
"Useless trash!!"
He started kicking the Ten-Tails' head.
"You got pinned down like this?!"
"What use are you to me?!"
The Ten-Tails looked… wronged.
This isn't my fault…
After venting—
Isamu activated his Dōjutsu.
"Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi!"
Black flames erupted—
shaping into blades—
and slashed through the gates.
In seconds—
the Gates of the Great God shattered.
Hashirama's eyes widened.
"…He broke it?"
"What is that black flame?"
"Madara never used anything like this…"
But Tobirama didn't stop.
He had already committed.
"Isamu! Take this!"
He leaped forward—
throwing the explosive tags.
The moment they left his hand—
they multiplied endlessly.
Dozens—
hundreds—
filling the air.
Isamu raised his hands casually—
even in his unstable state—
he sneered:
"Mere dust…"
"…dares to dance?"
"Shinra Tensei!!"
A massive repulsive force exploded outward—
The explosive tags—
were blown back.
Straight toward Tobirama.
"…NANI?!"
His face changed instantly.
"Oh no—!"
He turned and ran.
But—
too late.
Isamu extended his hand.
"Universal Pull."
A powerful force locked onto Tobirama—
and dragged him back.
He froze mid-motion.
"…I can't move?!"
Slowly—
he turned his head.
And saw—
Endless explosive tags—
right beside him.
