Chapter 102: Using the White Phosphorus Great Snake, Are You Looking Down on People?
One sentence could scold two people.
Nagato would surely be very gratified that Uehara had truly grown up.
But the scolded Orochimaru didn't mind; instead, he clapped his hands, "Decisive in killing, worthy of being Konan's disciple..."
"I haven't killed him yet."
Uehara Naraka glared irritably at Orochimaru and said coldly, "What, want to use the training scroll for Infinite Multiplication Exploding Tags to ransom your most loyal subordinate?"
"His value isn't that high."
Orochimaru shook his head, rejecting Uehara Naraka's proposal.
Uehara Naraka shook his head and sighed, "Actually, I think this guy's value is even higher than Orochimaru-senpai's..."
In the entire ninja world, ninjas are divided into many types.
Among them, two could be said to have climbed up from the bottom. They neither had powerful inherited Kekkei Genkai nor superb ninja talent, relying only on themselves.
The first was Might Guy, a dedicated tryhard capable of achieving mutual destruction; the other was Kabuto Yakushi, who relied on his own intelligence to climb step by step into the ranks of peak ninjas.
The stories of these two people were very inspirational.
"Sometimes I even envy your ability to work hard and strive..."
Uehara Naraka bent down, grabbed Kabuto Yakushi's hair, and shook his head with considerable emotion, "Unfortunately, my talent is too poor; I can only become a cheater to make a living."
Kabuto Yakushi: "..."
Although he didn't understand Uehara Naraka's meaning, Kabuto Yakushi could clearly feel the regret and pride in Uehara Naraka's words.
The regret was understandable...
But what did the hint of pride mean?
"Forget it. Some things can only be obtained in the future. For now, let's collect a little better-than-nothing interest from you!"
Uehara Naraka shook his head to himself, punched Kabuto Yakushi in the face, watching Kabuto completely lose consciousness.
After all, there was still a series of side quests requiring answers from Kabuto Yakushi, especially the training methods for the Sage Modes of the Three Great Sage Regions.
However, one quest did complete.
Side Quest: See through Kabuto Yakushi's spy identity (1/1). Mission Complete. Reward: 300 Gold Coins.
Side Quest: Defeat Medical Ninja Kabuto Yakushi (1/1). Mission Complete. Reward Skill: Cell Division.
Cell Division: Upon death, the body will directly split into 4 cells. After 8 seconds, these divided cells will begin to re-aggregate, thereby reviving the main body. Each surviving cell will revive 10% of Life Energy and Chakra Energy. Cooldown 150 seconds. No chakra cost.
"This..."
Uehara Naraka was both surprised and overjoyed. He had never thought he could actually obtain a rebirth-type skill, although this Cell Division might allow an enemy to kill four Uehara Narakas with one blow.
The possibility of using this skill should be very small, right?
"Alright, the appetizer is finished."
Uehara Naraka kicked Kabuto Yakushi, this tool person, aside, rolled his shoulders, and turned to look at Orochimaru, "Now for the main course!"
"I've truly underestimated you all along, Uehara-kun..."
Orochimaru's eyes gradually turned serious. His fingers were also slowly closing. The next second, he instantly flung a shuriken towards Uehara Naraka.
Orochimaru's palms quickly came together, completing the seals, and he shouted coldly, "Ninja Art: Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"
The shuriken flying through the air rapidly split into a swarm of shuriken!
Orochimaru didn't pause at all, just continued forming hand seals, fiercely spewing out ball after ball of flame, "Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!"
Each ball of flame quickly attached itself to each shuriken, flying towards Uehara Naraka.
Even if the flames were extinguished, the shuriken could still cause cutting damage.
"Isn't this Uchiha Itachi's Phoenix Sage Flower Nail Crimson?"
Uehara Naraka widened his eyes at the incoming flaming shuriken, quickly began forming seals, and released a ninjutsu, "Wind Release: Wind Wall!"
A wind wall blew up, intercepting the flaming shuriken.
Orochimaru also just treated this combination ninjutsu as a feint; the real killing move was still below. An icy glint showed in his eyes, "Ninja Art: Hidden Shadow Snake Technique!"
Two pythons abruptly shot out from the ground on either side of Uehara!
Uehara Naraka summoned his purple chakra broadsword, swung it to cut down the two pythons, his face somewhat displeased, "Orochimaru-senpai, better not play with snakes in front of me, okay? It lowers my good impression of you."
"Kid, no need for such nonsense."
Orochimaru snorted coldly. Upon seeing him, he [Naraka] started shouting about fighting and killing, as if Uehara Naraka had a good impression of him.
Orochimaru bent down, prostrating himself on the ground, and spewed forth countless long snakes from his mouth, "Ninja Art: Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!"
A swarm of long snakes rapidly surged towards Uehara Naraka!
Just looking at their numbers made Uehara's scalp tingle!
An ordinary person would subconsciously avoid contact upon seeing one snake; now, thousands upon thousands of snakes were hissing and rushing towards him.
Midway, each snake spat out a sharp sword from its mouth, which paradoxically made them look somewhat more pleasing to the eye...
"Lightning Release: Slicing Maelstrom!"
Uehara Naraka raised his right hand. A thundercloud storm quickly gathered, and bolt after bolt of lightning struck down rapidly. In a few seconds, these long snakes turned into charred remains.
Orochimaru paid no heed to his ninjutsu being broken by Uehara Naraka. He just looked at Uehara Naraka somewhat uncertainly, "That's... seal-less ninjutsu?"
This was truly astonishing!
Seal-less ninjutsu in the ninja world were few and far between. A powerful Lightning Release ninjutsu like the one just now would require at least a dozen hand seals.
"Oh, did I forget to form seals just now?"
Uehara Naraka frowned, brought his palms together, and continued gravely, "Now I'll form a pretty hand seal for you to see..."
"Do you think I'm an idiot?"
After cursing angrily, Orochimaru's neck suddenly elongated. He said softly, "But now, to me, you already have a different kind of value..."
A slender neck carrying Orochimaru's head flew over!
According to the ninja world's chakra theory, the more chakra a ninja could use, the more the auxiliary hand seal gestures for their ninjutsu could be correspondingly reduced.
Except for certain Kekkei Genkai ninjas.
A trace of madness flashed in Orochimaru's flying head. Four of his teeth gradually sharpened, "Before I obtain the body I desire, I'll treat you as a spare part... if you can survive! Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique!"
Uehara Naraka's eyes instantly glazed over with confusion.
However, the next second, Cleanse broke the genjutsu's control! Uehara Naraka leaped and kicked towards Orochimaru!
Bang!
Orochimaru's neck was kicked by Uehara!
The soft neck bent at an unbelievable angle, as if like a slingshot, sending Orochimaru's head and body flying out simultaneously!
Uehara Naraka's expression was somewhat unpleasant. Looking at Orochimaru, who had retracted his neck again, he said coldly, "Don't come near me, you're dirty."
"Heh heh heh heh..."
Orochimaru smiled, twisting his neck. His body rapidly extended, his head gradually becoming somewhat ferocious, and small white snakes began to emerge all over his body. He slowly transformed into a White Phosphorus Great Snake!
Orochimaru's voice was somewhat hoarse. He flicked his long snake tongue, "Kid, don't worry, in a little while we will merge into one..."
"Shut up! Go, Twilight Blade!"
Uehara Naraka flicked his wrist, throwing the purple broadsword in his hand!
The chakra broadsword traced an arc in the air and, while Orochimaru was still speaking, fiercely plunged into his neck, pinning the White Phosphorus Great Snake to the ground.
Uehara Naraka leaped and stomped on Orochimaru's body, saying coldly, "Orochimaru-senpai, if you were still using ninjutsu, I might still find it troublesome... But using the White Phosphorus Great Snake, who are you looking down on?"
This snake couldn't even handle Sasuke!
It was clearly insulting his strength!
