Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 895 Show off your power
Just like that, time passed by minute by minute.

As expected, after Orochimaru discovered that Jiraiya was trying to use the 'Sage Mode', he immediately joined forces with Mana to launch the most fierce attack.

In this situation, even with Gamabunta's strength, he was beaten so hard that he couldn't fight back. Apart from passively dodging and defending, he had no chance to take the initiative to attack.

However, even so, it still insisted on protecting Jiraiya and absorbing natural energy.

slap~
At a certain moment, a crisp sound was heard, like a whip hitting flesh.

In the field, Gamabunta was unable to dodge and was hit in the abdomen by the snake's tail, and the whole frog flew backwards.

Seeing this, Orochimaru's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his hand to form a seal, taking the opportunity to perform the ninjutsu - Snake Kiss!
In an instant, an illusory snake head formed in his palm, then flew out like lightning, rapidly growing larger in the air, and vaguely turned into a solid entity, biting Gamabunta.

This is a ninjutsu created by Orochimaru. It not only has extremely strong physical attacks, but can also poison the target, making it lose its combat capability.

However, just as the snake head was about to bite Gamabunta, an indescribable pressure emanated from it.

No, it wasn't emanating from Gamabunta, but from Jiraiya above his head.

After Gamabunta bought enough time, Jiraiya finally used the "Sage Mode".

At this moment, his whole body exuded a thrilling aura, it was a kind of pure power.

Looking at the miserable Gamabunta, and then at the snake head biting towards him, Jiraiya did not hesitate at all. He immediately raised his hands to form seals, and in an instant performed the ninjutsu - Fire Style: Flame Bullet!
The next moment, a fireball emitting scorching heat appeared and shot out like a cannonball, hitting the snake's head and causing it to collapse.

This is not the end.
After the fireball smashed the snake's head, it continued to move forward and hit Orochimaru and the Ten Thousand Snakes under him.

Sensing the danger, Wanshe twisted his body without any hesitation and rushed out a long distance like a flash of purple lightning, narrowly avoiding the attack of the fireball.

However, before it could catch its breath, another fireball hit it, and this time it was even more powerful than the previous one.

The snakes had no time to dodge and were hit accurately by the fireball, causing them to scream in pain.

But when he heard the voice, Jiraiya did not show any sign of relaxation. His eyes darted left and right, his perception fully open, as if he was looking for something.

The next moment, he looked suddenly at the ground beneath his feet, then grabbed Gamabunta next to him, and flashed away from where he was originally.

Almost at the moment they left, a purple snake head with horns jumped out from the ground, its mouth opened and closed, and it took a fierce bite of the air.

This snake head doesn't belong to any other thing, it's the head of ten thousand snakes.

Obviously, being hit by the fireball released by Jiraiya was just an illusion. It just wanted to take this opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Jiraiya.

And what it wanted to bite was not the air, but Jiraiya and Gamabunta beside him.

But unfortunately, Jiraiya, who has activated the "Sage Mode", has a perception far beyond that of ordinary people.

At the first moment, he discovered the small movement of Wanshe using the "Snake Shedding Technique" to avoid the fireball attack, so he was able to detect the opponent's sneak attack in time.

Then, he naturally dodged it.

Underground, Qingming watched this brief confrontation with his pupils shrinking slightly.

There is no need to mention Jiraiya's reaction. Qingming was mentally prepared for him to activate the "Sage Mode".

What surprised him was the Ten Thousand Snakes.

how to say?

As expected of a summoning beast that Orochimaru values, it not only has outstanding abilities, but also has really strong strength and reaction.

The move just now of showing weakness to the enemy and then counterattacking with a sneak attack is something that even an experienced ninja may not be able to use.

But Wanshe did it.

The most important thing is that it was achieved in a very short period of time.

This is only because the enemy is Jiraiya, who is also experienced in combat and has activated the 'Sage Mode'. If it were any other ninja, even if they were not injured now, they would be in a mess, giving Mandrake the opportunity to seize the opportunity.

Seeing Manda and Orochimaru reappear, Jiraiya was in no hurry to continue his attack. He glanced at Gamabunta beside him, looking at the injuries on his body, and said, "Bunta, the next battle is left to me, you go back and rest first!"

"Uh, okay!"

Hearing this, Gamabunta did not try to be stubborn and agreed after a little hesitation.

In the battle just now, in order to protect Jiraiya from being affected, he had to fight one against two, and was indeed seriously injured. He urgently needed to treat his injuries.

Therefore, there was no request to stay.

However, before leaving, it still glared at the thousands of snakes in the distance and said unhappily: "Jiraiya, remember to teach that stinky snake a lesson for me."

"Ten thousand snakes?"

"no problem!"

Jiraiya heard this, nodded, and agreed immediately.

As for why Gamabunta’s request was not to kill?

It's very simple. As a spiritual beast, and a spiritual beast that has an alien space as its home, it is not so easy to kill.

Because when they are defeated, they can actively cancel the "psychic technique" and return to their nest.

Unless it is a sneak attack, or one has a method like the Sharingan that can forcibly control the summoned beast, it is difficult to kill it directly.

This is especially true when the summoned beast is relatively powerful.

It is for this reason that Gamabunta did not ask Jiraiya to kill Manda, but asked him to teach Manda a lesson.

bang~
A cloud of chakra smoke dissipated.

Gamabunta left the world.

Immediately, Jiraiya withdrew his gaze and focused all his attention on the Ten Thousand Snakes and Orochimaru on their backs.

"Orochimaru, it's still not too late for you to come back with me now."

Jiraiya finally persuaded.

"Haha~"

However, the only response he got was Orochimaru's chuckle and the A-level ninjutsu he performed with his hand - Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!
In an instant, dozens or even hundreds of shurikens appeared and shot towards Jiraiya like a storm.

However, facing this overwhelming attack, Jiraiya had no intention of dodging.

He was seen standing in place, quickly completing the seal.

The next moment, the white hair on his head grew rapidly again, turning into long, flexible threads that weaved into a net, protecting his entire body.

This is not any other ninjutsu, it is the ninjutsu created by Jiraiya - Needle Jizo!

However, unlike the previously performed 'Needle Jizo', this time it was driven by Senjutsu Chakra, which made it not only more flexible and faster, but also more defensive.

All the shurikens that hit him were bounced away.

This is not finished!
After all the shurikens disappeared, Jiraiya changed his hand seals and immediately performed the first celestial art after activating the 'Sage Mode' - Sage Art: Thousand Hair Needles!
In an instant, dense hairs like raindrops shot out from his back, far exceeding the number of shurikens just now, and shot towards Orochimaru and the Mandalay under him.

Don’t think that because these thousands of blades are made of hair, they have no strong attack power. In fact, it is not the case.

With the blessing of Senjutsu Chakra, their hardness is even greater than that of ordinary ninja tools. Coupled with such a large number, it can be said that they are a nightmare for any enemy.

Orochimaru and Manda are no exception!
