The mongoose froze as Nita's ice hit it. More ice attacks came in from the side as Rapunzel and Masumi pushed forwards, blasting branches out of the way. Vines tried to form a wall between the three and the trunk of the tree.

Trunks and Kairi were also making good progress, pushing through the hole they had made and getting closer to the centre of the tree. Roots try and tangle them again as mongeese get thrown aside by their attacks. One mongoose has climbed onto a branch but goes tumbling when Trunks shatters the branch.

Demyx was also cutting through, forging a path for Kaiba, Devero and Koumyou to follow. Whilst Devero called for Kaiba a mongoose lept at him from behind, hopefully Koumyou would spot it, though there is distraction in the form of a large branch heading his way, aiming to sweep him off his feet.

Otoha would find more mongeese converging on him as he pushed forward, getting closer to the trunk. Senku at least has a breather, a moment to regroup though there are some roots nearby slowly moving towards him.

Cassie, Yugi and Jack might want to implement their plan quickly as two solid branches come swooping towards the group, aiming to knock them back away from the tree.
