Chapter 448: Hunting Legend I (Part 2)
“BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!”
After a roar, only a large cloud of dust remained. Nagato's Rinnegan was watching closely. If there was any change, he would attack immediately! He was very confident in the dynamic vision of these eyes!
Unfortunately, he lacked some information, so he overlooked one thing, Shura Dao's body!
"Bang!"
Hearing the loud noise, Nagato turned his head suddenly, only to see a huge white snake biting through the floor and swallowing the Shurado's corpse that he had used as a trap!
"Yakitsu Fusion Technique!"
The moment he swallowed Shurado's corpse, Orochimaru decisively activated the ninjutsu he used to complete the bloodline network path and digested it instantly!
After Orochimaru's technique was launched, a change occurred.
The white snake's pupils began to ripple. After a moment, the snake's pupils disappeared and were replaced by the Rinnegan!
Unfortunately, there was very little pupil power left in Shura Dao's body to use as a backup, and the White Snake's Samsara Eye dissipated in an instant.
However, although the experience time of this Rinnegan is short and its ability is extremely low, even much worse than Pain's projection, this does not affect Orochimaru's research on some properties of the Rinnegan.
It was this swallowing that made him give up the idea of merging the Rinnegan. Although it had the power of yin and yang, the Rinnegan was still biased towards yin escape, and its yang escape power was still relatively weak.
This is different from the power of the Six Paths Sage recorded in the classics. This kind of Rinnegan is not what he needs, but of course it is not completely useless. The nature of its power can still serve as a reference for him.
A thorough study would be beneficial to the development of his bloodline network. Moreover, he had just discovered something even more interesting within the Rinnegan's pupil power. Unfortunately, the pupil power dissipated too quickly, and he was unable to study it thoroughly. He planned to collect some more.
“Slurp~”
Orochimaru's figure emerged from the white snake. After licking the corner of his mouth, he swam towards Nagato like a snake!
Although the white snake's recent transformation only lasted for a moment, it was still captured by Nagato's Rinnegan, causing his pupils to constrict and an infinite sense of urgency to surge in his heart!
Family members know their own business. His ability to get to this point now is inseparable from his eyes. Therefore, after seeing that Orochimaru can do this, he secretly made up his mind that he must keep Orochimaru here!
Even though he is Jiraiya's teammate!
"Shinra Tensei!"
However, Nagato still did not show much on his face. Facing Orochimaru's attack, he directly repelled it with Shinra Tensei, and then condensed a black stick in his left hand.
"Tianyin of All Things!"
“Puff!”
Faced with the repulsive and attractive forces that could be transformed freely, Orochimaru was manipulated by Nagato like a ball, and then pierced through the abdomen with a stick, but that was not the end yet.
Then, a purple light flashed in Nagato's eyes, and the black stick that had penetrated Orochimaru's body suddenly split apart, exploding like the thorns of a hedgehog, tearing Orochimaru to pieces!
But before Nagato could recover, all the fragments of Orochimaru in the sky turned into white snakes and bit towards him.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Seeing this scene, the scene of the white snake's transformation just now seemed to reappear in Nagato's mind. He quickly activated Shinra Tensei, repelling all the white snakes, and then madly mobilized the power of the Rinnegan, staring at the group of white snakes!
'Isn't this an illusion?'
Just as Nagato was observing the true nature of the white snakes, the white snakes opened their mouths, and sword blades popped out from each of them, and then stabbed towards Nagato at an extremely fast speed!
However, no matter how fast it was, it could not be faster than Nagato's Rinnegan. All of the white snake's attacks were blocked by the black stick condensed from Nagato's sleeves. For a moment, the room was flashing with swords and sabers.
Nagato's body kept flashing in the room. Relying on the two convenient abilities of the Rinnegan, Shinra Tensei and Mansho Tenyin, he kept cutting off white snakes!
Unlike Orochimaru who was formed by the gathering of white snakes, these white snakes were truly dead once they were cut off and would not decompose again. Unfortunately, this still had no effect on the battle situation.
Every time Nagato cut off a white snake, a new white snake would emerge from the corner to join the battle.
Orochimaru has been preparing for this plan for a long time, and the Rain Tiger Freedom Technique is also under consideration. Nagato's Rain Tiger Freedom Technique is not omnipotent, it can only block people on the ground, and the underground is its loophole!
The penetration ability of rainwater is not very strong. It is impossible for it to penetrate dozens or hundreds of meters underground in a short period of time. By the time the rainwater penetrates there, the chakra will have dissipated.
Orochimaru's white snake sneaked in from here. This was prepared when Hunting Plan I was first formulated. Moreover, as long as his white snake exists, it will infinitely divide and reproduce itself, and can provide all kinds of nutrients.
It can be said that the survival ability has been brought to the extreme. Therefore, under the control of Orochimaru's body (consciousness?), the white snakes continue to sneak in and are still splitting. At this time, except Orochimaru, no one knows how many snakes are underneath!
This is also the reason why Orochimaru can sneak in silently.
The next battle was no different from the previous one, it was still White Snake Swordsmanship VS Nagato Stick Technique!
Orochimaru had no intention of changing his fighting status and planned to continue fighting. He was not stupid. With the information provided by Shiro, he was familiar with the abilities of the Six Paths of Pain.
The initial attack on Shura Road was just to test the accuracy of Shiro's intelligence. At present, the accuracy is very high. Therefore, Orochimaru is ready to proceed according to the original plan and use physical skills to wear down Nagato!
Orochimaru did not intend to use ninjutsu as he did not want to cause any more trouble. He could study the sealing technique after capturing Nagato. Now, let's capture Nagato first.
Nagato naturally discovered this, but he also didn't want to break the deadlock at this time. It was still beneficial for him to continue to entangle like this.
At this time, his real body was fighting with Orochimaru, but he had secretly controlled the Animal Path hiding in the Hidden Mist Village to wander around the village and set up sealing spells, trying to trap Orochimaru here and then kill him with one blow!
In this regard, Nagato has a great advantage. Pain is essentially a puppet technique, but it is more advanced. Its carrier is a corpse, which cannot refine chakra itself.
All his actions and spells were performed with the help of the black stick on his body. As the black stick was Pain's exclusive chakra receiver, its concealment was naturally top-notch. Therefore, Orochimaru did not notice the Animal Path wandering around.
And it is also difficult to tell, because at this time Konan is already working on dispersing the crowd. As long as most of the people go out and the barrier is set up, Nagato will officially take action to break the deadlock and make Orochimaru die here!
"Ping! Pong! Whoosh! Puff!"
After a while, Nagato's eyes became serious. Xiaonan had almost dispersed the crowd, and the preparations for the Animal Path had been made. It was time to take action.
"Shinra Tensei!!!"
"hoop!"
"boom!!!!"
Unlike the previous Shinra Tensei, this time the power was much higher than before. In addition to repelling a large number of white snakes, it also collapsed the entire building.
At the same time, the Beast Path outside the building took action simultaneously when Nagato launched the attack, slapped the ground with one palm, and activated the sealing barrier that had been prepared earlier.
"Five Seal Barriers!"
"Hmm?" x 2
"The space-time has changed. Is it a sealing barrier?"
"How much of this... this guy has prepared!!!"
At the moment the barrier rose, the changes in time and space were captured by both of them, but their focus was different. Orochimaru was focused on the sealing technique.
This level of sealing technique is not something that a survivor can master. This undoubtedly verifies what Shiro said to him. He is now looking forward to what he will gain from Shiro.
What surprised Nagato was the huge number of snakes underground!
At this moment, Nagato was somewhat glad that he did not choose to rely on his huge chakra to delay the battle, otherwise the consequences would be really...
At present, Nagato thought about it and decided that there was only one move that could be used to eliminate the snake group in one blow without overdrawing his own strength. The rest of the ninjutsu were not enough to cause this level of destructive power.
But before that, some preparations must be made.
Thinking of this, Nagato raised his hands to his chest and took the opportunity to form seals before the white snake emerged from the ruins.
"Super Earth Escape Earthquake Core!"
“Bang!”
“.”
As Nagato poured a huge amount of chakra into the ground, after a moment of silence, a roar that resounded through the sky appeared!
Under the massive chakra poured into the Earthquake Core by Nagato, the ruins created by Shinra Tensei were almost completely turned upside down, exposing almost all of the White Snake underground!
Seeing this scene, the name and ability of a technique flashed through Orochimaru's mind. He quickly formed a seal, but unfortunately he stopped halfway through.
"Earth-shattering Star~"
As Nagato silently chanted in his heart, a black ball rose from his hand. Then, when it reached the top, a powerful suction force burst out from it! Almost all the white snakes on the earth were sucked up!
Solid!
seal!
After a moment, the suction of the black ball disappeared, and in Nagato's perception, all the white snakes in the barrier gathered towards the round ball in the sky.
“Puff!”
Just when Nagato breathed a sigh of relief, Orochimaru suddenly jumped out from under his feet! The Kusanagi sword in his right hand pierced through Nagato's shoulder cleanly. At the same time, a white snake shot out from Orochimaru's right sleeve and bit Nagato's neck fiercely!
Orochimaru's preparation was just for this attack. When Nagato used the Earthquake Core, he knew that Nagato could use the barrier to perceive. Whether it was the power of the Rinnegan or the barrier, he could do it anyway.
Although the time was relatively short, Orochimaru still found a way to avoid this perception. Unfortunately, there was not enough time and the preparation was not sufficient, so he could only launch a sneak attack in a hurry. If it was any later, he would be exposed.
And it turned out that his decision was right!
Not only did he succeed in one strike, but he also planted a curse on Nagato. What a huge profit!
Unfortunately, Orochimaru did not hurt Nagato's foundation. After recovering from the aftereffects of the Chibaku Tensei, Nagato suddenly grabbed Orochimaru's abdomen with his right hand! He pulled out Orochimaru's soul and devoured it directly!
"The human way!"
"Hungry Ghost Realm! Ah~ah!"
After sensing the curse seal starting to spread on his neck, Nagato decisively used the Hungry Ghost Path to absorb and devour the curse seal. Unfortunately, Nagato stopped wailing after only half of it was devoured.
Because in addition to chakra, the curse seal also contains natural energy, the fairy chakra of the curse seal is not as perfectly combined as the sage mode.
Therefore, he did not absorb all of Jiraiya's magic like in the original work, but only absorbed the chakra. The remaining natural energy was enough for the weak Nagato to bear.
However, he was not without a solution. After relieving the pain in his right shoulder, Nagato withdrew the power of the Animal Realm and summoned Pain from the Hungry Ghost Realm.
"Sealing technique absorbs it completely."
After Hungry Ghost Path Pain absorbed all the chakra of the cursed seal, Nagato, who was no longer tortured by natural energy, slowly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the stone ball in the sky with lingering fear.
Only then did he realize how lucky he was to have defeated Hanzo.
Thunder Country Battlefield
"Wow!"
As Nagato activated the Human Way to devour Orochimaru's soul, the "real body" of Orochimaru from the Land of Lightning suddenly vomited blood in the tent.
Obviously, the soul devoured by Nagato had a great impact on Orochimaru. Although Orochimaru's breath was much weaker, there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Although I didn't get the Samsara Eye this time, the information I got was also very important, and the most important thing is
"Haha, the Uzumaki clan, who excel at Yang-style ninjutsu, have a powerful Yin-style ninjutsu Kekkei Genkai. They all have their own plans. How interesting."
