Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#348 - The Eight-Headed Technique!

Watching Wan Snake, who was already under his claws, lying straight and unresponsive, Liang Yue didn't plan to let it go. He continued to pull it back.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

He swung it twice in a row, smashing it hard in the direction where Orochimaru had fallen before.

It's a pity that compared to the idiot snake in his hands, Orochimaru was much more cunning.

its effect is exceptionally heaven-defying.

So much so that in the later stages, ninjas didn't dare to use this technique much during battles~

Otherwise, imagine the scene: Naruto and Sasuke, after a hard struggle, finally reached the final level, only to face the final boss, Kaguya Otsutsuki.

After exhausting all their efforts, they had just managed to stun her a little, and just as the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, were about to use a move, Six Paths ~ Heaven Severing Hand.

But just as they were about to touch Kaguya's body, she used the most basic Body Replacement Technique to transfer away, wouldn't that be embarrassing...…

Therefore, Liang Yue always kept in mind the saying that the most basic is the most advanced.

Back when he was studying at the ninja school, he had always valued the Body Replacement Technique among the Three Body Techniques.

According to Liang Yue's comprehensive understanding of the Naruto plot, this Body Replacement Technique should at least be a space-time ninjutsu with heaven-defying effects…

Let's get back to the topic…

Even though Orochimaru had already witnessed Liang Yue's unexpected, or rather, shocking strength, he still decided to take another chance for the sake of immortality!

"Eight Branches Technique!"

Accompanied by a gloomy low shout, a burst of intense chakra suddenly surged from behind a large rock on Liang Yue's right side.

In an instant, a white mass spewed out, rising nearly a hundred meters into the sky.

Like a giant tornado, surging and spinning, stirring up a tidal wave of wind.

Then, the grayish-white mass suddenly split like a peacock spreading its tail, forming eight thick and ferocious giant snakes!

Just like the legendary Yamata no Orochi, eight snake heads grew side by side, their surfaces covered with upturned scales, and their bodies were grayish-white except for their black eye sockets.

"Ha~!!!"

The eight giant snake heads raised their heads to the sky, uttering bursts of hissing sounds, their snake necks dancing wildly, connected to one body, but with eight firm snake tails scattered behind them.

Then, the eight snake heads turned together, and sixteen cold eyes suddenly looked towards Liang Yue.

"This is a bit interesting~"

Looking at Orochimaru's Eight Branches Technique on the opposite side, Liang Yue's mouth suddenly curved, and a bit of excitement arose in his eyes.

Without any hesitation, under his mind control, the golden Kirin under him immediately pounced forward.

Facing the eight moving giant snakes, Liang Yue seemed to have no interest in using any fancy methods at this time, just like when he faced Wan Snake before.

He just charged straight up!

"Be careful!"

Tsunade behind him was shocked and reminded him.

However, what happened next made this old aunt shut her mouth in shock again.

Facing the eight-headed Yamata no Orochi moving together and roaring endlessly, the Kirin under Liang Yue remained unmoved from beginning to end, rushing up like a moth to a flame.

In the blink of an eye, the distance of several hundred meters disappeared quickly.

Then, two giant snake heads attacked instantly, one on the left and one on the right, opening their mouths to bite the golden Kirin's shoulders.

Huge teeth were deeply embedded inside the Kirin.

What was surprising, however, was that Liang Yue, who was controlling the Kirin, turned a blind eye to this and continued to rush forward.

With the trampling of its four hooves, the two snake heads on its body did not cause any hindrance to the Kirin's actions. Instead, they were dragged along, continuing towards the Yamata no Orochi's main body.

Orochimaru climbed out of the giant mouth of one of the snake heads in the middle, his body covered in mucus, and the look in his eyes towards the Kirin and Liang Yue below was tinged with suspicion.

"Swish swish swish~"

Immediately afterwards, three more snake heads attacked instantly, with fierce momentum, locking onto the Kirin again like lightning.

"Pfft~!"

At the same time, accompanied by a muffled impact sound, the Kirin's head where Liang Yue was located finally collided with the eight snake heads of the giant serpent.

Two firm antlers instantly plunged into the snake's abdomen.

Then, arching upwards with force~

"Bloom~!"

Liang Yue stretched out his arms at this time, his eyes sparkling with brilliance.

"Crack crack~ Swish!"

In an instant, the originally mighty golden Kirin under him suddenly underwent a shape change.

Like a golden ear mushroom that was rapidly soaking, its body swelled rapidly.

At the same time, sharp wooden spears shot out, from the Kirin's body to all directions, with a bluish-green spiritual power attached to them.

In the blink of an eye, they had already pierced into the Yamata no Orochi's thick scales.

The Kirin's main body simply turned into a plant that was vigorously sprouting.

Thousands of branches swayed, stretching out arbitrarily, and instantly bound the five giant snake heads embedded in its body firmly together.

Then, it contracted, penetrated, and then used the Yamata no Orochi's body as nourishment, constantly sprouting new trunks and branches, while the serpent's main body constantly withered and dried up.

This whole process happened very quickly, in just less than two seconds, the entire body of the Yamata no Orochi was covered by a verdant tree and branches.

In the blink of an eye, it completely turned into a magnificent plant with a very peculiar shape!

"Swish~"

At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed in front of Liang Yue, and Orochimaru appeared there.

At this time, Orochimaru was a little breathless, and his snake eyes were full of shock.

"It's really shocking~ Chunqiu-kun, I didn't expect that you, who are still in your teenage years, could develop such a powerful ninjutsu!"

"This is not ninjutsu, it's just a variant application of a technique I came up with after reading the First Hokage's Wood Release. If you have to consider it a ninjutsu,

you can think of this thing as a variant version of Wood Dragon Technique plus Advent of a World of Flowering Trees."

Looking at Orochimaru in front of him, Liang Yue didn't hesitate to explain some extra things to him.

Moreover, from the perspective of the system task, in fact, compared to Yakushi Kabuto, Orochimaru was even more difficult to judge.

In the original plot, although the other party had always been fascinated by the research on the art of immortality, apart from the half-abandoned Konoha Crush plan, he had not done anything else to help the wicked do evil.

At most, he could be regarded as a pyramid scheme boss and a scientific madman, and it was really a bit far-fetched to call him a war criminal.

Although he improved the Impure World Reincarnation, this forbidden ninjutsu, it was Yakushi Kabuto who really used it in the war…

"Compared to ninjutsu, I actually value the application of chakra more. From your point of view, the so-called Sage Art is just an advanced version of chakra."

"… Is that so? I never thought before that simply relying on chakra could make people immortal. Now it seems that my research direction should indeed change."

As he said that, Orochimaru suddenly looked back and saw Tsunade leading Shizune and Naruto quickly approaching from a distance. Further away, he even discovered Jiraiya's figure.

So Orochimaru knew that his time was running out.

After all, the execution of the Eight Branches Technique was not simple, requiring a huge amount of chakra and mental energy.

With his current situation, it was impossible to win if he faced Tsunade and Jiraiya again. Not being captured alive would be considered burning incense.

"I wonder, Chunqiu-kun, how would you be willing to teach me the method of Sage Art training? I can pay any price."

Looking at Orochimaru opposite him, whose face was faintly showing a hint of pleading and expectation, Liang Yue pondered for a while before replying.

"Come back to Konoha, find a decent way yourself."
