Meanwhile, Orochimaru, Suigetsu, and Karin arrive at the battlefield where Madara fought the five Kage, where Tsunade is using Katsuyu to heal the other Kage but is too weak from her own injuries to make much progress. Combining two of their strongest techniques into one attack, the two manage to deal a powerful blow to the Ten-Tails. While Sakura uses Katsuyu to heal the injured members of the alliance, Naruto and Gamakichi jump over the Ten Tails' army of monsters while Sasuke and Aoda push through it.

Sai discloses his worries about having to cover too much ground between the alliance and the main body of the Ten Tails, and in response, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura summon Gamakichi, Aoda, and Katsuyu, respectively, to help on the battlefield.
