"What's the situation with the enemy forces?"
Tamamo-no-Mae asked the two people beside her.
"Judging by the distribution of Cursed Energy, the enemy in the north has the weakest Cursed Energy."
An old man with a Jitte at his waist knelt on one knee and respectfully reported his reconnaissance findings to Tamamo-no-Mae.
Tamamo-no-Mae nodded after listening, then turned her gaze to Uro Sakurako, who was hanging in the sky.
Noticing Tamamo-no-Mae's gaze, Uro Sakurako immediately lowered her altitude.
"The people in the north are indeed the weakest, but their numbers are significantly greater than the other three gates."
Uro Sakurako's conclusion was the same as the old man who had reported back from reconnaissance.
They both thought the northern gate was the easiest to break through.
"The place with the strongest Cursed Energy aura is the eastern gate."
Tamamo-no-Mae nodded with satisfaction.
This made her objective very clear.
She would have her Cursed Spirit army break through the northern gate, which appeared to be the weakest.
She would also observe the enemy's response. If the enemy retreated immediately after the northern gate was breached, then so be it.
If they didn't retreat, she could disrupt their deployment and force them to reinforce the northern gate.
Either scenario would be advantageous for Tamamo-no-Mae.
"Dhuruv, I'll give you half of my forces. Lead the charge at the northern gate yourself."
"Understood."
Dhuruv nodded.
"Now, everyone! Let these foolish beings who dare to block our path witness the grandest Hyakki Yako in history!"
Tamamo-no-Mae spread her arms wide, officially declaring the start of the war.
Just then, a sense of crisis suddenly arose in Tamamo-no-Mae's heart.
Her nine tails, condensed from Cursed Energy, bristled.
At the same time, Tamamo-no-Mae noticed that the Barrier above her suddenly opened.
However, Tamamo-no-Mae couldn't spare a thought for the situation above; she quickly turned her gaze to the eastern gate.
Countless rays of light were converging at the eastern gate.
"This is bad! Scatter! Everyone who can attack the eastern gate, launch your attacks towards the eastern gate immediately!"
Tamamo-no-Mae had seen that golden radiance before.
Her Incarnation, Sanzu River, had been severely wounded by that golden radiance.
However, the radiance flashing at the eastern gate now was far, far more powerful than what Sanzu River had encountered.
A golden light cannon descended towards the Cursed Spirit army in front of Tamamo-no-Mae.
Thousands of attacks met the light cannon of Excalibur.
Yet, under the radiance of the Sacred Sword, these attacks filled with negative energy melted away like spring snow under the sun.
Uro Sakurako, who had intended to twist Ishiryu's Cursed Energy cannon like she had done before, immediately abandoned the idea the moment she saw the light cannon.
Instead, she ascended at the fastest speed of her life.
She couldn't twist it; it was utterly impossible to twist.
Ishiryu, that martial fanatic's Cursed Energy cannon was already terrifying in power.
But Altoria felt a hundred, even a thousand times more terrifying than Ishiryu.
Excalibur's attack landed in the most densely populated area of Cursed Spirits. A golden pillar of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the dim heavens.
A crater hundreds of meters in diameter appeared in the center of the Sendai Barrier.
Over a hundred thousand Cursed Spirits were completely exorcised by the power of the Sacred Sword.
"What a terrifying attack. Even over the past thousand years, no one could have matched this strike in sheer destructive power."
Master Tengen, observing the Sendai battlefield through the Barrier from Kurokoshi-gu, sighed with emotion.
After his sigh.
Master Tengen rapidly formed hand seals.
The opened section of the Sendai Barrier's sky began to close.
Many Cursed Spirits could fly.
If the top wasn't sealed quickly, many Cursed Spirits would escape through the opening.
"Damn it!"
Tamamo-no-Mae, who had narrowly dodged the fatal attack, cursed furiously.
"Attacks of that level can't be unleashed continuously. Take her down now!"
At that moment, Tamamo-no-Mae understood why the East Gate had the strongest defenses.
It was to protect this girl capable of unleashing terrifying bombardments.
The original strategy, to harass and defend the East Gate, which had the strongest defenses, was overturned.
The North Gate remained the most crucial direction for breakthrough, but the offensive power of the East Gate was also elevated to the highest priority.
Under no circumstances could such an attack be allowed to happen a second time.
For a time, the vast army of Cursed Spirits surged towards the North and East Gates like a tide.
Only tens of thousands of Cursed Spirits were dispatched to the West and South Gates for harassment and containment.
"They're here, Medea!"
Eiji shouted behind him.
"Don't worry, Master, I'm ready."
With that, Medea picked up the Holy Grail with her left hand and raised her staff high with her right.
Countless teeth emerged from the Holy Grail.
These teeth, like seeds, entered the soil, and then skeletal soldiers began to sprout from them.
These were Medea's Dragon Tooth Warriors.
And their numbers exceeded ten thousand.
"You've got to be kidding me, are those Summoned Spirits?"
"How is that possible? Who can control so many Summoned Spirits?"
"Isn't there someone with Cursed Spirit Manipulation who can control tens of thousands of Cursed Spirits?"
"Are Cursed Spirits and Summoned Spirits the same thing?"
Discussions began to erupt from the Jujutsu Sorcerer units behind Naobito Zenin.
No longer tense from facing the tide of Cursed Spirits, they were now not only relaxed but incredibly excited.
Altoria's Noble Phantasm release had given them an unparalleled shock.
It also brought them confidence in victory.
Now, Medea conjuring an "army" of Summoned Spirits out of thin air had completely banished their fear.
At this moment, they believed victory was assured.
After summoning the Dragon Tooth Warriors, Medea bestowed numerous buffs upon Eiji.
Then, Medea returned to the center of the formation.
Medea had three missions for this battle.
1. Summon a large number of Dragon Tooth Warriors to reduce the defensive pressure on the East Gate.
2. Countless Cursed Spirits would inevitably be exorcised on the battlefield. Medea was to collect and convert the residual Cursed Energy scattered from these exorcised Cursed Spirits using the Holy Grail, transforming it into power to sustain Eiji, Altoria, Heroic Spirit Emiya, and Medea herself in battle.
Before the battle began, Eiji had already instructed Medea to connect the mana supply of the three Heroic Spirits to the Holy Grail.
The three Heroic Spirits could directly absorb mana from the Holy Grail, rather than receiving it through Eiji.
This would not only lighten Eiji's burden but also enhance their combat effectiveness.
After all, Eiji's instantaneous Cursed Energy output was not infinite.
Furthermore, supplying the three Heroic Spirits at full capacity would not only make it difficult to maintain their supply speed but also prevent Eiji from squeezing out any Cursed Energy to fight.
Therefore, Eiji made this decision and entrusted the Holy Grail to Medea's care.
Medea's final mission was to provide support to the front lines from the rear.
How to support and when to support was entirely up to Medea's discretion.
"Rabbit Escape!"
Looking at the approaching army of Cursed Spirits and feeling his own power surge, Eiji felt a surge of heroism.
Countless Rabbit Escapes poured out of his shadow like waves, their numbers quickly exceeding ten thousand.
While these Rabbit Escapes might not be able to defeat powerful Cursed Spirits, they were perfectly capable of exorcising Grade 4 Cursed Spirits with their kung fu.
Their leg techniques were so impressive that even Toji Fushiguro couldn't help but want to try them out.
