Although the steps were complicated, Shuimu made careful arrangements for each step of the Grim Reaper, which was the reason why everything went smoothly.

But from the perspective of Orochimaru who was standing aside, it seemed that Mizuki was stuck on the edge of resistance from the God of Death at every step, as if he had already known the limit of this "God" who had no independent will.

In the seemingly orderly actions, every step is full of life-threatening dangers. One mistake could lead to a complete failure.

"Although I knew that since you had taken action, you must be very confident, but I didn't expect it to be such a risky act. You know, the more complicated the plan and steps are, the greater the chance of problems..."

When the complexity is as dazzling as Shuimu's action this time, the possibility of error is so great that it is unbearable. However, Shuimu put it into practice without hesitation and succeeded. There must be a key point that Shuimu expected but I did not see clearly.

"What are you thinking? If you make a mistake, it won't end well!"

Mizuki shrugged nonchalantly.

"You think too much. You are the one who will end up in a bad situation. At most, I can use the Flying Thunder God Technique to take my clone away from here and try again in another place. As for you, you will have to bear the wrath of the God of Death and the Ninja World!"

If you succeed, everything will be easy. If you fail, there has to be a scapegoat, right?

Otherwise, Orochimaru would just perform some magic for a while, and then get a good soul shell. By the way, he could also watch Mizuki perform secret techniques that are impossible to see outside, which would be a great inspiration to Orochimaru.

How could Mizuki let Orochimaru stand by and watch here without taking any risks?

"Next, you also have your plan. Use your Eight-Headed Technique to block that powerful-looking Death Blade!"

Mizuki's shameless remarks about selling out his teammates, as well as his blatant plan to use Orochimaru as a shield, immediately made Orochimaru somewhat dissatisfied:

"I finally survived, is it just to prepare for the next death?"

"Don't be afraid. The Grim Reaper is already trapped in a jar. Even if you are caught again, the worst that can happen is that a part of you will be chopped off and go through the Grim Reaper's stomach. I will release you after I have made all the arrangements."

As long as he doesn't die on the spot, the danger to Orochimaru is not very great.

"You just want to have a safety shield, planning to abandon me if things go wrong?"

"Isn't this a matter of course?"

Mizuki nodded and said.

"And I'm also very reluctant. A useful helper is still very valuable. However, if it really doesn't work, your death won't have much impact. Since you created Mitsuki and then died and reborn, your influence on the ninja world has been very low. In three years, you have delayed a lot of time."

“Really?”

Orochimaru also understood his current situation very well. Although he felt a little humiliated, this was the reality and he could not resist.

"I agree to your request, but my strength is far from recovered, and the Eight-Headed Art is still far from its peak. I can only hold you back for a while..."

"No need to hold back..."

Mizuki waved his hand.

"I have anticipated your situation. You only need to take two blows. You are so big that the Grim Reaper can chop you several times. You won't die. This period of time is enough for me to subdue the Grim Reaper."

With all his escape routes blocked by Mizuki, Orochimaru had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​fishing in troubled waters. If he did not do as Mizuki said, his life might not be in danger, but at the critical moment, Mizuki might not play with him.

This was unacceptable to Orochimaru, who had a strong thirst for knowledge.

"As you wish. I just hope you can act faster and not make a mistake that would kill me."

Having said that, Orochimaru had no choice but to start making hand seals, preparing to perform the Eight-Headed Dragon Technique.

Having just summoned the god of death and used the Reincarnation Technique to change his body, Orochimaru had consumed a lot of energy in a short period of time. If it were other forbidden techniques, Orochimaru might still have a hard time, but the Eight-Headed Technique puts a little less pressure on the consumption of chakra, and is more of a test of Orochimaru's mental strength.

For Orochimaru, who has been through many battles, this happens to be his strong point.

Although the Eight-Headed Ninjutsu is not completely original, it is an exclusive secret technique developed by Orochimaru after all. It is naturally a ninjutsu that can perfectly exert one's power. The evaluation that its combat power can defeat the tailed beast head-on is not groundless. Orochimaru's title as one of the "Three Ninjas" is not undeserved.

From the perspective of the God of Death, although there was some unpleasant aura around him and it was constantly penetrating into his body, he instinctively sensed the danger, but he could not accurately determine the source of the danger. As for the "ants" below that looked a bit strong, they were just ants after all.

However, the Grim Reaper, who was puzzled as to why he had not left but stayed here, and was also confused about what to do next, suddenly found a giant snake with eight hideous heads in front of him. Each head was so evil, the two horns on its head were so disgusting, and the winding neck was so tempting that people unconsciously wanted to chop it off.

Not only that, this ugly and hostile monster in front of him had an aura that made him very dissatisfied...

"Oh, this is the person who used the Death Mask to channel me. He disappeared before he could sacrifice his soul. I thought he had run away, but I didn't expect him to be here and even came to my door on his own initiative!"

In an instant, the hostility of other beings was completely overwhelmed by the newly appeared Yamata no Orochi. A villain like Orochimaru is indeed quite good at attracting hatred.

The eight snake heads spewed out corrosive breath with various properties from their mouths and attacked the God of Death. The roars from their mouths were an obvious provocation.

The god of death, immersed in disgust for the Yamata-no-Orochi, swung his death blade and mercilessly chopped off the nearest head.

As for the various attribute attacks of the Yamata no Orochi... the effect can only be said to be better than nothing. If it were not for the Yin attribute power and some vibrations of energy attacks, it might have no effect at all on the God of Death. Now, Orochimaru's attack only makes the God of Death feel a little uncomfortable, and then increases his hatred towards Orochimaru a little.

He picked up the severed head of the Yamata no Orochi along with part of its neck, put it in his mouth, chewed it for a few times, and after tasting it, he swallowed it with satisfaction.

Seeing all this, Shuimu was naturally quite satisfied.

The more attention is focused on the Yamata-no-Orochi released by Orochimaru, the lower the resistance to the Xishuixiang that Mizuki's physical clone is exerting its full strength, and this is the best opportunity to speed up the erosion. The red and black runes have slowly and steadily covered half of the huge body of the god of death.

At this time, Shuimu continued to order:

"Nagato, release Kazuhiko's soul."

"Time is up?"

The question asked by Nagato's Impure World Form was only asked out of habit, but his hands did not stop moving. The soul container summoned by Hell's Soul Devouring was opened, and Kazuhiko's soul that was originally contained was released. It was about to return to the Pure Land instinctively, but Mizuki and another physical clone joined forces, used the connection between Kazuhiko and Xishuixiang, and used the power of the barrier to move it to the vicinity of the Death God's ruptured stomach.

He Yan, who was in a confused state just now, woke up at this moment.

"As expected, I can't go back to the Pure Land now. A ruthless 'criminal' like me will probably be wiped out once I leave this barrier. My goal is not to destroy my soul and spirit. The rest, of course, can only rely on you. I hope that one day I can see the light of day again!"

Realizing that he had no choice, He Yan finally began to mobilize the compulsive power of his own soul, using the Yin-Yang Escape that had been transmitted by Shuimu, especially the power of Yin Escape, and used himself as material to construct a long-designed sealing array on his body, and then changed his form near the belly of the god of death in the nick of time. After filling the hole in the belly of the god of death, he gradually began to merge with the bodies of the gods of death around him.

"What are you doing?"

Orochimaru finally understood what Mizuki was thinking.

"Using your spiritual obsession to erode is one thing, but such an action may cause irreversible damage to the god of death. You just want to subdue the god of death and make him obey temporarily. After that, you can replace a small part of the god of death with another soul under your control, and then slowly erode it. In the end, you can completely use the god of death for your own benefit. It's really a good idea."

Mizuki smiled slightly, and used the dead souls in the Impure World Body of his physical clone, Kazuhiko, to fill the broken stomach of the God of Death, and then used the power of sealing technique to merge them into one, but this was only temporary.

In Mizuki's original world, there is a particularly magical creature called fish lice, which is an aquatic insect that parasitizes on certain fish.

There was nothing strange about this kind of insect, and it was not much different from other parasites, but what interested Shuimu was one of its habits, which greatly inspired Shuimu.

This type of fish louse can enter the fish's mouth through the water flow, through the fish's mouth or gills, and then parasitize under the fish's tongue, feeding on the fish's blood.

But that's not all. This type of fish lice will grow slowly over time, and then gnaw on the tongue of the parasitic fish bit by bit. However, the fish lice do not just destroy. After gnawing the tongue clean, they form a whole with the tissues in the fish's mouth, completely replacing the original position of the tongue and exercising the tongue's ability to help the fish eat and survive.

This miraculous way of survival, which involves parasitism and completely erasing part of an organ or tissue and replacing it, is the perfect means for Shuimu.

If the God of Death wants to release the souls of four previous Hokage to perform the Impure World Reincarnation, he will inevitably be injured. Mizuki needs appropriate controlled souls to fill this gap. After being captured, the God of Death has been alienated from the original ninja world, and it is still unknown whether he can heal himself naturally, but Mizuki does not want to get a half-finished product.

For the God of Death, the greatest value is its Death Blade that harvests, stores and cuts souls. As for whether its body has flaws, such a small matter is not difficult for Mizuki. Creating a God of Death is too troublesome, and Mizuki cannot quickly research a way to modify the underlying life rules of the ninja world. However, repairing a slightly damaged God of Death is not a problem for Mizuki. Mizuki has had the Death Mask for so long, and it is not without results.

Kazuhiko was like a prepared parasite, completely attached to the Grim Reaper and replacing a part of him.

Of course, Shuimu's ambition is not just as meaningless as replacing the tongue of a fish with fish lice, but he is taking this opportunity to completely devour the god of death and use it for his own benefit.

I have put in so much effort and worked so hard for so long, not just for a half-finished product, nor do I want to make wedding dresses for others.

Just when Orochimaru was distracted by Mizuki's actions, two more snake heads were chopped off by the Death Blade and became food for the Death to taste.

It seems that he is addicted to chopping giant snakes. The Grim Reaper is becoming more and more skilled in destroying these defenseless spiritual entities.

"Why are you able to perform ninjutsu without being attacked by the Shinigami, and even your clone is so safe?"

"Because I don't look threatening!"

Mizuki smiled and replied.

In fact, with the erosion strength of Xishuixiang, the actions of the God of Death can be restricted now, but if we do so, the resistance may become more intense. We don't know if the God of Death has any backup plans that we don't know about. It's better not to take risks. Orochimaru used forbidden techniques to transform into the Yamata no Orochi, which has several snake heads and can hold on for a long time.

Mizuki needs to wait until Xishuixiang's erosion of the Shinigami reaches a very high level, and then without destroying the Shinigami's basic abilities, cooperate with Kazuhiko who sneaks behind enemy lines to capture the Shinigami in one fell swoop.

"Just hold on for a few more minutes and I'll succeed."

"How many minutes?"

A scream of intense pain came from the remaining head of the Yamata no Orochi. For Orochimaru, the attack on the Yamata no Orochi was as painful as having his actual soul torn apart. This injury happened just after he performed the Reincarnation Technique. It seemed that he would be weak for a while.

"Are you trying to weaken my fighting ability on purpose?"

"How come?"

Mizuki denied.

"I won't do anything that's not good for me. You're still very useful, don't worry!"

Mizuki no longer cares whether Orochimaru's fighting ability is strong or weak. What makes Orochimaru threatening is not his ninjutsu skills, but his frightening mind.

In Shuimu's perception, when Xi Shuixiang began to come into contact with the basic framework of the Death God's Sealing Technique, he finally encountered a strong obstacle.

"It's almost reached its limit. That's it. The next step is to slowly transform it, and then use the power of faith to speed up this process..."
