Toneri, who was closest to Orochimaru, was the first to sense that something was wrong with Orochimaru. While increasing the power of the Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion in his hand, he shouted to Sasuke and Naruto not far away: "Be careful, he is somewhat..."
Before Toneri could finish his words, Orochimaru kicked toward Toneri.
Toneri's expression changed.
The other party had his arms severed and his internal organs sliced open by his Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion; let alone an ordinary person, even for those at the Six Paths level, this strike would be fatal if not a heavy injury. Logically, he should have lost the ability to resist long ago.
As a result, Orochimaru acted as if nothing had happened, and this kick came without any omen, fast and urgent!
Bang
Toneri had no time to dodge and took the kick head-on. However, his face instantly changed after being hit; before he could react, he flew out backward.
Toneri, flying backward, had a blank mind.
The sharp pain coming from his abdomen almost made him lose his ability to think. He never expected the force of Orochimaru's kick to be so terrifying, leaving him, who had already activated the Tenseigan Chakra Mode and had various physical attributes greatly enhanced, with no power to defend himself.
Swoosh
Seeing Toneri being sent flying by Orochimaru, Sasuke was the first to react. He appeared behind Orochimaru with a Body Flicker, and the Chidori in his hand pierced out accordingly.
Orochimaru clearly had no field of vision, yet he seemed to see Sasuke's movements with perfect clarity, turning sideways to let Sasuke's Chidori pass.
"!?"
Sasuke froze slightly, but the attack did not stop; his body instinctively launched the next wave of offensive.
At the same time, Naruto activated the Six Paths Mode and joined the battle circle with a Body Flicker, joining forces with Sasuke to attack Orochimaru.
Bang bang bang
The three turned into three after-images, moving back and forth. In an instant, they exchanged dozens of blows.
"How is it possible?"
"So strong!"
Sasuke and Naruto each felt alarmed.
One must know that Orochimaru at this moment was in a state where his arms were completely severed and he was heavily injured!
The other party could actually entangle with them while they were joined together in such a state; the implications hidden within this made them not dare to think deeply.
What alarmed Sasuke even more was that he felt the shadow of Ichirō Fūma on Orochimaru's body.
Back when he fought him, the other party also relied on a strange premonition ability to fight equally with him, even though he was a dojutsu Bloodline Limit shinobi.
Bang
After kicking Naruto away, Orochimaru dodged Sasuke's offensive and twisted his body to leap to the place where his severed arms had fallen.
Huff huff
Sasuke panted lightly while staring fixedly at Orochimaru.
Naruto climbed up from the ground and warned Sasuke: "Sasuke, his strength is very great!"
"I know!"
Sasuke was somewhat annoyed.
The other party had clearly been severely wounded, yet they were unable to take him down for a long time; this made him feel as though he was losing face.
At this time, Orochimaru shook his shoulders toward the severed arms lying on the ground.
Swoosh
Two Claw Mark flew out and landed on the severed arms.
Naruto said: "That move again!"
Sasuke said: "It is just a somewhat strange space-time ninjutsu, do not worry!"
With Sasuke's eyesight, he naturally saw through the fact that Orochimaru's Claw Mark was actually a space-time ninjutsu; he even guessed eight or nine out of ten concerning some functions of the Claw Mark!
"Space-time ninjutsu? Heh, this is not ninjutsu, but Shinjutsu!"
After Orochimaru finished his laugh, he shook his body.
...
In an instant, the severed stumps of his arms connected to the severed arms on the ground through the Claw Mark. Subsequently, the severed arms that had been hacked off by Toneri's Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion were stitched back onto his arms through the Claw Mark.
Naruto shouted that things were bad: "Not good!"
Sasuke's expression also became ugly.
They did not expect that these Claw Mark could not only travel through space but even possessed the ability to stitch, sewing back the severed arms Orochimaru had lost.
Previously, they were unable to take down Orochimaru even when his arms were severed; now that Orochimaru had recovered his arms, the situation instantly reversed.
Orochimaru moved his arms that had been stitched by the Claw Mark and laughed: "I am going to get serious!"
"Tsk!"
Sasuke spat.
Naruto clasped his fists: "Sasuke, we also have to get serious!"
Sasuke nodded, and then the Six Magatama Rinnegan in his eye sockets radiated an eerie light. Instantly, a purple projection cast out from within his body, transforming in the blink of an eye into a hundred-meter-tall Perfect Susanoo.
Seeing this, Naruto at his side also let the Nine-Tails within his body manifest, transforming into a golden giant fox with a size comparable to the Perfect Susanoo!
Orochimaru shook his head while laughing: "You still do not understand what Shinjutsu is!"
Sasuke said coldly: "What of Shinjutsu? Watch how I deal with you!"
After saying that, Sasuke urged the Susanoo to swing its blade, which, wrapped in the whistling sound of breaking wind, hacked fiercely toward Orochimaru on the ground.
Rumble
Accompanied by a massive roar, Orochimaru's figure was swallowed by the enormous blade body.
Naruto asked: "Sasuke, you did not kill him, did you?"
Sasuke frowned slightly.
Although this strike had stirred up a sky full of dust as it fell, he was very confident in his own insight; he was certain Orochimaru had failed to dodge just now. But for some reason, he always felt that the tactile sensation coming from the blade was somewhat wrong!
As expected, after the dust dissipated, he saw a scene that horrified him.
Orochimaru was seen holding up his right arm, using only one hand to catch the strike that his Perfect Susanoo had swung with full power.
Sasuke had a look of disbelief: "How is it possible!?"
Orochimaru said: "In the face of Shinjutsu, all of your dojutsu are just flashy tricks!"
"Damn it!"
Sasuke was furious and prepared to urge the Susanoo to swing the blade again.
Swoosh
However, just as the Susanoo raised the long blade in its hand prepared to hack down, Orochimaru flew into the air and punched toward Sasuke's Susanoo!
Bang!
With just one punch, Sasuke was sent flying out from within his Susanoo. As for the head of his Perfect Susanoo, it was directly blown apart by Orochimaru's punch!
"Sasuke!"
Naruto let out a great shout and prepared to use the tail of the Nine-Tails to catch the Sasuke who had been sent flying.
Orochimaru, however, did not give Naruto such an opportunity. He flashed again, appearing in front of the giant Nine-Tails, and with a punch like smashing a balloon, he shattered the giant Nine-Tails Naruto had manifested!
...
In the distance.
Watching Orochimaru use a mere two punches to crush Sasuke's Susanoo and Naruto's Nine-Tails, Zabuza, who had just escaped the battlefield, had a face full of horror.
He guessed Orochimaru might have hidden some kind of Shinjutsu, but he did not expect Orochimaru to hide it so deeply. In fact, for this luring of the enemy, he had also been kept in the dark by the Research Institute, but seeing the three Six Paths level combatants, Sasuke, Naruto, and Toneri, taking action, he thought Orochimaru had no way to escape. He never expected such an accident to occur.
On the battlefield.
Orochimaru at this time walked toward Sasuke; his target remained unchanged from beginning to end, and that was Shinjutsu!
