Chapter 48: One-Sword Style—
“Ninja Art—Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!” Orochimaru let out a low shout.
His body sprawled on the ground like a snake, his mouth opened wide.
“Hiss—hiss—hiss—” “Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!” Immediately after, Orochimaru’s mouth seemed to become a nest of snakes.
Countless ferocious venomous snakes rapidly surged out from within.
The venomous snakes poured out like a tide.
Endless!
“Hiss—hiss—hiss—” The venomous snakes let out chilling hisses.
Very soon, their numbers reached a terrifying level.
This swarm of snakes actually piled together, forming a wave made entirely of snakes!
The wave was nearly a hundred meters tall!
These snakes could no longer be counted in the tens of thousands.
There were hundreds of thousands of them!
Hundreds of thousands of venomous snakes formed a colossal wave of serpents.
Hundreds of thousands of blood-filled snake mouths snapped toward Youyu.
This was Orochimaru’s Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!
The hundreds of thousands of venomous snakes he summoned could devour everything blocking their path!
“W-What is that?!” Everyone trembled as they watched this hellish scene.
Some people even fainted from fright.
Even Kisame’s shark-like eyes showed fear at this moment.
A snake sea nearly a hundred meters tall, formed from hundreds of thousands of venomous snakes!
The visual impact was impossible to describe.
If he were facing a snake sea like this, he would definitely be swallowed by those hundreds of thousands of venomous snakes without even scraps left behind.
“C-Can he still block an attack like this?” Kisame looked at Youyu, who was getting closer and closer to the snake sea, his shark-like eyes full of blood vessels.
Against such a terrifying sea of snakes, even that guy should lose, right?
… “How disgusting!
Can’t you do anything remotely human?!” Youyu looked at Orochimaru, his eyes full of disgust.
This scene made Youyu feel extremely uncomfortable.
He already hated snakes to begin with, and after being tangled up with this snake-playing bastard for so long, he had long since been made thoroughly uncomfortable.
And now, this snake-playing bastard had gone even further and created an entire sea of snakes!
He truly did not do a single human thing!
Youyu decided to use the strongest slash he had just obtained to bury these disgusting things!
“Hiss—hiss—hiss—” Listening to the sound of the snakes’ breathing getting closer and closer, Youyu’s eyes suddenly turned as black as ink.
“Clang!” A crisp blade cry rang out.
Youyu held Shusui horizontally, a cold light blazing in his eyes.
“Armament!” “Buzz—” A dark energy wrapped around Youyu’s entire right arm.
In an instant, his right hand became like steel.
Immediately afterward, the dark energy did not stop there.
It turned into streams of dark-black airflow, completely wrapping around Shusui!
Armament Haki!
Coating!
“Buzz—buzz—buzz—” Shusui cried out continuously.
Then, an overwhelming sword intent spread out from Youyu’s body!
“What?” Orochimaru, who was still continuously summoning the sea of snakes, had his snake pupils stand upright as his expression changed.
In his senses, Youyu, who was being rapidly approached by the sea of snakes, was releasing an extremely dangerous aura!
Immediately after, Orochimaru heard those words.
“Snake-playing bastard, with this slash, I’ll bury you and your snakes together!” Youyu’s entire body radiated dark-black airflow, the black light in his eyes surging wildly.
“Buzz—” “Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—” As Youyu’s words fell, the dark-black airflow around him seemed to receive an order.
Like wild horses freed from their reins, it erupted completely!
In just an instant, the dark-black airflow actually spread across the entire forest.
But it still did not stop.
It continued spreading into the distance!
“W-What is this?!” Orochimaru’s snake pupils suddenly felt dizzy.
Then, he could no longer see anything!
“Hiss—hiss—hiss—” The nearly hundred-meter-tall snake sea formed from hundreds of thousands of venomous snakes suddenly stopped.
Then, it immediately fell into a frenzied state!
Because they could not see anything.
They could not sense anything either!
“W-What happened?!” “Why did the sky turn black?!” “I-I can’t see!” … Everyone present immediately panicked, crying out in fear.
At this moment, their world had sunk into boundless darkness.
There was not a single trace of light.
Even their companions right beside them could not be seen at all.
The hissing of snakes, loud enough to almost pierce their ears, made them even more terrified.
… Konoha, Hokage’s Office.
“W-What’s going on?” Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the crystal ball, which had suddenly turned pitch-black, and his expression changed violently.
At this moment, the crystal ball was as black as ink.
No!
It was even darker than ink!
“Hokage-sama, look in that direction!” At that moment, Shinku Yuhi suddenly raised a trembling hand and pointed outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the gathered Jonin turned to look.
Their pupils shrank instantly.
“W-What is that?” Jiraiya came to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked toward the Forest of Death.
That place had actually fallen into boundless darkness, as if it had been separated from the surrounding world!
Just looking at that darkness made one feel despair.
It was as if all light had been devoured by it!
“T-This is swordsmanship?” Jiraiya was not stupid.
Orochimaru absolutely did not have a technique like this.
Then it could only have been used by one person.
“One-Sword Style—” At that moment, Youyu’s voice suddenly came from the crystal ball.
Everyone quickly returned to the crystal ball.
Jiraiya and Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at it fixedly, trying to see clearly what exactly was happening.
“Buzz—buzz—buzz—” At this moment, Youyu’s eyes were actually as black as ink.
Like a vortex, they swallowed all light!
“Snake-playing bastard, be buried beneath this slash!” “Buzz—” …
