The Giant White Snake seemed to have fallen silent.
Uehara Naraku frowned, his expression somewhat unpleasant. He kicked the head of the Giant White Snake with his foot. "Could it be dead just like that?"
The next second, Uehara Naraku's expression changed drastically. He swiftly drew out his purple Chakra Broadsword; the Giant White Snake was actually just an empty shell!
What a joke?
Did Orochimaru transform into the Giant White Snake and leave such an empty shell just to escape?
Suddenly, a hand shot out from the ground, gripping Uehara Naraku's ankle tightly. "Caught you, kid! Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Jutsu!"
"Too sneaky!"
Uehara Naraku was caught off guard and pulled underground by a C-Class Ninjutsu, leaving only his head above the surface.
Damn it, there's even something like this.
He actually fell for the Double Suicide Decapitation Jutsu.
Uehara Naraku was on the verge of coughing up blood. He had just encountered a scheming ninja like Uchiha Itachi not long ago, so how could he forget during his battle with Orochimaru?
This guy is even more cunning than Uchiha Itachi.
"I'm not willing to kill you, kid!"
Orochimaru chuckled lightly, licking his lips, and then suddenly transformed into countless little white snakes, swarming towards Uehara Naraku on the ground.
Orochimaru wanted to absorb Uehara Naraku then and there.
The next second, the white snakes swarmed around. Uehara Naraku on the ground was no longer in sight; the swarm of white snakes gathered again to form the figure of Orochimaru.
Orochimaru's palm hit the ground quickly, sensing the Chakra underground. He frowned. "...What's going on? I can't sense that kid's Chakra?"
Suddenly, a purple light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes!
A purple Chakra Broadsword shot out from the ground, slicing towards Orochimaru's neck. Although he narrowly dodged it, it left a long, deep wound on his chest, and blood almost gushed out!
A Paper Bomb was also slapped onto Orochimaru's wound by Uehara Naraku, making it look like a large band-aid.
"Boom!"
Uehara Naraku reappeared in front of Orochimaru, even adding a sound effect for the explosion of the Paper Bomb.
Boom!
The Paper Bomb exploded instantly!
Orochimaru was blown away, his body flying apart with bits of flesh scattering!
However, one Paper Bomb summoned ten more.
Seeing the ten additional Paper Bombs appear, Orochimaru's eyes widened in disbelief, a hint of fear flickering in them: "This is... Tandem Paper Bomb Jutsu?"
"I don't know about any Tandem Paper Bomb Jutsu, but this is a little trick I came up with for Paper Bombs."
Uehara Naraku spread his hands, looking magnanimous. "Just now, Orochimaru-senpai gave me ten thousand Paper Bombs. We in the Akatsuki never leave debts unpaid. Now I'm repaying you ten times, so we're even."
Ten Paper Bombs summoned a hundred more, and in the blink of an eye, this area was covered by a hundred thousand Paper Bombs, tightly surrounding Orochimaru.
Orochimaru sighed helplessly. "I thought I had overestimated you enough, but..."
At this moment, even the Orochi Style Substitute Jutsu could not save him!
Then there was only one last absolute jutsu that prevents death!
"Yamata Jutsu!"
Orochimaru's body rapidly expanded, transforming into a Yamata no Orochi several stories tall, with eight massive heads constantly swaying and hissing on one body!
This was Orochimaru's ultimate Kinjutsu!
The power of the Yamata Jutsu rivaled that of the Tailed Beasts. As long as one head remained, it would not die, giving Orochimaru confidence to counter the Tandem Paper Bomb Jutsu.
At this moment, Orochimaru was the Yamata no Orochi.
After the sound of the Paper Bombs' explosion, each of the Yamata no Orochi's heads fell to the ground, and from one of them, Orochimaru's body emerged.
Only now, Orochimaru seemed a bit weak. This life-saving Ninjutsu had consumed a lot of his Chakra and stamina.
Uehara Naraku spoke with interest, "I thought Orochimaru-senpai would use such a powerful jutsu to attack me!"
"Hmph..."
Orochimaru just gritted his teeth without answering. He clasped his hands together, beginning to form the Summoning Seal. "Ninpo: Summoning Jutsu!"
Currently, he wasn't adept at using the Yamata Jutsu, which could easily lead to his body losing control and collapsing from within. Rather than forcibly using the Yamata Jutsu, it was better to summon another big guy!
"Come forth! Manda!"
Orochimaru coldly stared at Uehara Naraku, slapping his hand on the ground, where a massive summoning seal appeared.
A colossal figure sprang forth from the summoning seal!
The enormous Manda swept its serpent tongue across the battlefield, its gaze exuding ferocity and ruthlessness. "Orochimaru, what do you want by summoning me? If you can't satisfy me, I'll kill you right now!"
Among the Konoha Sannin and their summoned beasts, only Orochimaru had a poor relationship with his summoning beast, Manda.
This was related to the nature of snakes.
They inherently had no sense of loyalty.
"Hahahahaha..."
Before Orochimaru could say anything, Uehara Naraku laughed loudly. "Orochimaru-senpai, it seems your summoned beast doesn't listen to you very well!"
"Hmm?"
Manda lowered its head slightly, seeing the small Uehara Naraku, it flicked its tongue. "Kid, what are you that dares to speak like this in front of me..."
Uehara Naraku slowly hovered in the air, looking at Manda with disdain. His hands began to form seals. "And what are you!"
"Is this kid going to summon Pain again?"
Orochimaru didn't look pleased as he hastily sat atop Manda's head, starting to recover his Chakra, preparing for battle in his best condition.
Uehara Naraku glanced up at Orochimaru, recovering Chakra on Manda's head, a slight smile pulling at his lips. "Don't worry, Orochimaru-senpai, since you want to have a battle of summoned beasts, as an intern junior, I'll naturally fulfill your wish."
Orochimaru frowned and mumbled quietly, "Is it that shark capable of defeating spirits again? Manda should be able to handle that shark..."
"Ninpo: Summoning Jutsu!"
Uehara Naraku completed his summoning seal.
A brilliant light emerged from his hand, shooting splendidly into the sky.
Uehara Naraku, half crying, half laughing, said, "Why does this guy come with visual effects for his entrance?"
Just as Orochimaru looked baffled, he was startled to see an unimaginable spell appear on the ground!
The range of that spell spanned several kilometers. What kind of monster was this kid, Uehara Naraku, trying to summon?
Was there really such a massive summoning beast in the world?
"Hero... appears!"
A voice, deep and explosive like thunder, resounded in everyone's ears!
A towering figure flew over like a falling meteor, not particularly tall but exuding a full sense of strength!
As it thudded heavily in the center of the spell, the land shattered over several kilometers in an instant!
No, it wasn't the spell that shattered; it was the earth itself!
Over several kilometers of terrain, whether it was forests, rocks, or beasts, everything was flung into the air by the impact of this tall humanoid creature!
The cracked earth turned into countless soil chunks and was blasted upward!
Manda, too, wasn't spared, being flung away, unable to react, its body losing control.
A trace of fear flickered in Manda's eyes as it shouted in panic, "Orochimaru, what on earth is this creature? What monster have you provoked?"
"I... don't know either..."
Orochimaru shook his head gravely but reached out an arm to save Yakushi Kabuto as Kabuto's body was also flung by the shock.
Fortunately, Yakushi Kabuto had been jolted awake by the upheaval. However, his face hinted at fear and terror. "Cough, cough...Lord Orochimaru, what's happening?"
Orochimaru didn't respond, his gaze fixed on Uehara Naraku, who flew over to the towering figure on the ground, speaking in a low voice, "What exactly is that kid's summoned beast?"
The dust from the ground's tremors gradually dissipated.
Uehara Naraku's summoning beast revealed its true face.
Uehara Naraku stood atop his summoned beast, his smile radiant, calling out towards Orochimaru and others, and at Manda, "Allow me to introduce, its name is Gallio."
