Hammer, twenty feet tall now, growls in pain as Ishtar carves a chunk out of his leg. With his hand, he bats her away as the leg slowly heals.
It is noticeable that his Hakai aura seems barely there to Ochazuke’s eyes.

Jack rushes in with a mighty blow from his own blade to the other leg of the undead namekian.
The stench of rot, and putrefaction thick, Ishtar is at once aggravated and thankful when -- after carving a chunk out of Hammer's leg -- she is batted away. Halting her flight away from the fallen GoD then, the golden-eyed Oni hovers a moment before reengaging.
Undead, and running on dregs, and yet this Namekian GoD was capable of regenerating. Without the use of energy, it would be a difficult task to stop this ... Aberration. Though perhaps ...
.
Etrina would feel Ishtar bridge contact telepathically.
"With the Carin Yard destroyed our restrictions are somewhat lessened ... might it be possible to seal his severed limbs, or perhaps stymie his ability to reconstitute ?"
While waiting for the young Time Mage to respond, Ishtar pressed the attack, her next strike aimed at the still regenerating mass of necrotic flesh. "If this is all that is left of you ... death would be a mercy, would it not ?"
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

"..........Its only a bad plan if I get caught......." Erosa closed her claws and but her lip, but managed to smile. "....Don't worry about me......You go make sure sister is safe. As long as she's safe I'll always come back.""We are staying here," Sarada spoke. Her tone was such that showed she wasn't accepting any arguments to the contrary.
At that moment, Sarada raised her voice with her edict, tone telling she would accept no other response besides obedience. It was the authority of one who had accepted the mantle of queen.
....and it immediately pissed the young Id off.
"........Whats wrong with you monkey queen.....You should be jumping on the chance to get in there and help Ishtar, and me getting chased across a trash planet should just be a bonus. Why are you acting all stubborn NOW?! My sister is over there, and Ashy......" Erosa stared, emitted a low growl as she turned her gaze back towards the direction of the conflict. ".....I can't sit around here while my sister is in danger.....that's not a choice, its my nature. So sit here and be queen if you want, I'm still going....."
"A time lock spell at the root of the damaged area the moment its cut would prevent it from regrowing correctly." Etrina responded back. "But it'll become less effective as he grows. I'm close to one of the still functioning stones...buy me some time to analysis the sealing magic involved with it, I might be able to utilize it on a smaller scale with my sealing charms."
"And do what?" Sarada responded through gritted teeth. "Attract **** knows what else is crawling on this stupid planet? Divide Ishtar's attention between her own well-being and mine also? Risk someone else doing something stupid and digging up yet another undead monstrosity?"
She bared her teeth and stared irately at the Id. "In case you were too busy to pay attention, Ochazuke already told us to stand down. I refused, he gave he reasons. If you want someone to get pissed at, get pissed at him! If it was up to me, I'd be flying there at full speed right now, consequences be damned. But it's those consequences that are keeping me from acting like some childish idiot and getting someone I care about killed!"
Gradually, her caustic gaze lessened and fell to the ground below them. Even as her flash of anger subsided, her hands balled into fists at her side, clenched tightly enough to dig her nails into her palms. "Sometimes, the best course of action to take is inaction, and to trust the people already there to handle it!"
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

Etrina knelt down next to the remaining cairn, occasionally glancing over her shoulder at the ever increasingly sized Namekian God in the background. The cairn field had kept him sealed away for ages, whatever magic had been worked into these stones seemed keyed to his energy in particular. The sealing of everything else that came to Terra had been more or less a side effect, or at least that's how it appeared, of the complex magic keeping the God of Destruction sealed. Perhaps that was why the Threshlings of this universe treated them with caution...they had an idea of what their purpose really was.
...and now she had to, in magical terms, reverse engineer magic from a single example that had been placed long before she was born.
And the while her friends where holding back a very angry....and smelly if the stench at this distance was any indication, God.
"....Alright....." Etrina gave herself a quick slap face. "....No time like the present to show your skill...."
".......But I can't just....I can't.......I....." Erosa sagged for a moment, relenting the fact, but then straightened with a sudden realization. ".......Monkey Lady....Forget lure plan.....If I could get you and me over to battle, just you and me, fast and without being detected. Would that work for you?"
Sarada narrowed her eyes at Erosa's proposal, then glanced at Sasheem. She had a bad feeling about this way the Id was going to get them to the battle quickly and quietly. Then, she needed to be there to make sure Ishtar was okay. If something happened to her, it would kill her!
And not just in the figurative sense, but she would feel the Oni dying, which would feel like it was killing her as well.
"...it depends on what you plan on doing." A beat passed while she hesitated. "Fine. But no funny business!"
"If only one of us could create a portal across great distances," Parsley mused, making her presence felt. She had left to return to the bunker to pick up a weapon when it seemed the others were going to the battlefield. When that was rebuked by Ochazuke, she still held onto it. "If you're going, sister, you'll need this." She handed her the rifle. "Not as impressive a god-killing weapon as I would have thought, but it will do."
She took the gun and placed it inside a capsule. "Thanks... sister."
"Ok......." Erosa nodded. "Here is what we do....I'll activate my Hunter Aura, the one I use to hide my ki when I sneak around, that way I can move as fast as I want without drawing any attention. Then all I need is to carry you with me. Just you though, unless we a have a way to make it easier to carry more then one....I'm not made to be pack animal."
Erosa bobbed her head and smiled. "You'd just need to hold on tight and close your eyes....and Erosa do the rest."
