Naruto: I, Shikotsumyaku, Byakugan Princess

Chapter 164 Reversal
The water shark and Samehada simultaneously opened their ferocious jaws, and two laser-like attacks suddenly struck.

The two collided in mid-air, one above the other!
Bah! Bah!
There was no explosive impact.

Faced with the combined attack of Hui Li and Orochimaru, Shui Sha had almost no ability to resist, and his head was pierced by the laser in an instant.

Hui Li and Orochimaru continuously channeled their chakra, the water and sword blades carrying a bone-piercing killing intent, aiming at Kisame Hoshigaki's chakra core between his eyebrows and his heart, respectively.

Attack where the enemy is bound to defend; no matter which side he defends, he will perish on the spot.

"Hey!"

Kisame Hoshigaki was completely fearless, revealing his shark-like fangs, and held Samehada horizontally in front of him with one hand.

"Woo..."

The shark's body suddenly swelled, its sharp spines opening, transforming from its original length of over two meters into a monstrous shark over ten meters long.

Its powerful body twisted and blocked Kisame's path, its mouth wide open, biting at the stream of water shooting from Kisame's brow.

Ping!
The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing echoed through the sky.

boom!
The giant shark shattered, bursting into countless sprays of water. The terrifying shockwave caused fine raindrops in the air to fly outwards like stones.

Hui Li's eyes flickered.

The invisible wind surrounding the body spun the curtain of water into mist, which then exploded and spread outwards, revealing a huge, towering black shadow behind it.

Orochimaru's vertical pupils contracted as he spat out the long sword.

He bit down on the Kusanagi sword and thrust it forward with all his might, but no matter how hard he tried, the incomparably sharp greatsword was stuck firmly in the black figure's body, unable to move forward even an inch.

The mist completely dissipated.

"Woo!"

Dense, black spikes crisscrossed, wedging the Kusanagi Sword. The shark's flesh opened its blood-red maw, like a black hole, swallowing the endless torrents of wind and water.

The feng shui combination escape technique, which could tear everything apart, was like a mud ox entering the sea in front of it. Before it could exert its power, it was inexplicably sucked apart and shattered. Its exquisite and delicate nature and form changes collapsed instantly and turned into pure chakra, which was absorbed by Samehada.

Orochimaru and Kairi's simultaneous attack strategy was completely ineffective!
"Physical attacks and ninjutsu attacks are both useless."

Kisame Hoshigaki, unharmed, grinned maliciously as he slowly channeled his chakra into Samehada. The few spikes that had been severed by the Kusanagi Sword instantly healed and regrowed from Samehada's surface.

The Kusanagi sword was completely locked by the sharp spikes.

Samehada twisted its body excitedly.

Hui Li crushed the shriveled water ball in her hand. Her chakra was almost depleted, and if Samehada continued to devour it, she would be unable to maintain the normal operation of her shadow clones.

Swallowing the last mouthful of turbulent water, Samehada writhes unwillingly, its large mouth opening and closing, its sharp teeth rubbing together as if savoring the taste.

boom!
The locked Kusanagi sword vanished in a puff of smoke, only to be summoned again in Orochimaru's hands.

"That knife is alive."

His hoarse voice betrayed his suppressed emotions, and Orochimaru's brows furrowed.

Its tough body can't even be cut by the Kusanagi sword, and it can absorb chakra, become immune to ninjutsu, self-repair, and automatically extend its body to protect its owner.

Both are members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, but how can Zabuza's Executioner's Blade, which shatters at the slightest touch, be compared to them?
"They can also transfer chakra to each other, and genjutsu is ineffective against them."

Byakugan watched as Orochimaru underwent a Yin Release nature transformation, and Kairi interrupted him, saving him some chakra.

"know the business!"

Kisame Hoshigaki carried Samehada on his shoulder, his pride evident.

Since obtaining Samehada from Mr. Madara, it's as if he's found his other half. The two are perfectly matched, like natural partners.

His vast chakra can sustain the gluttonous Samehada, and the other party can compensate for his various deficiencies. Attacks of the three types—ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu—are all ineffective against him.

They forcibly elevated him, an elite Jonin who only possessed Water Release techniques and an excessive amount of chakra, to a top-tier powerhouse comparable to the five village kage.

Samehada helped him in ways that are hard to imagine.

"It seems we have no choice but to try sealing techniques."

Orochimaru sighed helplessly.

The Impure World Reincarnation technique lacks materials and containers, and the current technique has significant flaws, making it unable to unleash the full power of the deceased.

The Eight-Headed Serpent Technique will also consume chakra, so it won't be very effective against Kisame.

There was no hope of finding someone like Ye Du behind them.

The infrared perception generated by the physical modification clearly indicated that the opponent's energy was almost depleted, likely due to a significant amount being absorbed by the strange fish-like sword, rendering them essentially incapable of combat.

As expected, the guy who can become Itachi Uchiha's teammate is no ordinary person.

Although his abilities are not as unpredictable as the Mangekyou Sharingan, his ability to absorb chakra perfectly counters all of his secret techniques. There must be a reason why the Akatsuki sent this person to capture him along with Itachi Uchiha.

If there is really no other way, we can only sacrifice the pawn to save the king.

Thinking of the mysterious round ball inside his belly, he felt resentful but helpless.

I don't think we need to.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru, who had exhausted all his options, quickly turned to look at Haili beside him, wondering if she had any better way to deal with the enemy.
Ignoring Orochimaru's confusion, Hui Li stepped over him and stood beside him, raising one hand into the air.

The illusory heart slowly pumped, and the scarce chakra flowed into the fingertips along the meridians, causing a faint purple halo to appear on the slender fingers.

Kisame Hoshigaki narrowed his eyes and pointed Samehada at Kairi.

He was wary of the shadowy figure behind Orochimaru from beginning to end; the other's unique chakra always made him feel uncomfortable.

The familiar and warm feeling was like that of family, yet it also brought him a deep-seated fear, as if he would be devoured by the other party if he wasn't careful.

Just like...right now!
Kisame Hoshigaki shuddered, his heart pounded, and a large amount of chakra in his body disappeared into thin air, leaving him feeling incredibly exhausted in an instant.

is her?

Kisame Hoshigaki subconsciously looked at the purple-glowing finger in front of him, but based on the flow of chakra within his body, he instantly located the target that was devouring his chakra.

"Samebas!"

The roar was deafening.

"Woo!"

Samehada, which had been obediently perched on Kisame's shoulder, quietly lowered its head, its enormous mouth now aimed directly at Kisame's back.

Seeing that its master had noticed, sharp spikes instantly grew from Samehada's sword hilt.

"Ahhh!"

Kisame roared, enduring the pain of his hand being pierced, and kicked Samehada away, who had betrayed him!
"Woo!"

thump!
Samehada's massive body smashed a large crater in the water, splashing water everywhere. Then, it shook its head, dragging the long hilt of its sword behind it, and swam quickly to Gray's feet like a fish.

It obediently retracted the barbs on its body, tilted its head back, and opened its huge mouth towards Hui Li's fingertips that shimmered with a purple halo, saliva dripping from the corners of its mouth.

"You bastard! You bastard!"

Kisame's eyes were bloodshot, and he was clenching his blood-soaked hands.

Seeing his partner betray him and crawl to the enemy's feet, begging for mercy, he felt both distressed and ashamed.

"good!"

With her eyes curving into crescents, Hui Li gently tapped Samehada's forehead with her purple fingers, feeding Samehada with her own chakra. It wasn't in vain that she expended so much chakra to unleash the high-pressure water blade; Samehada, who loved high-quality chakra, had indeed betrayed her.

Samehada is essentially the Three-Tails' sidekick, and its favorite food is high-quality tailed beast chakra.

Her chakra, a fusion of the Three-Tails and Nine-Tails' power, is indeed far less abundant than Kisame's, but in terms of quality, few in the entire ninja world can compare to her. If Kisame Hoshigaki's chakra is like cheap fried chicken that provides a great feeling of fullness, then her chakra is like an expensive abalone with a soft, juicy center, meticulously prepared by a top chef.

not enough to eat.

However, its flavor is incomparable to that of dried persimmon Kisame.

Purple chakra, like droplets of water, entered the giant maw. Samehada, having just tasted a bit of flavor, shook its head and flicked its tail in frustration. Finally, it turned around and handed a long staff, which was either a sword hilt or a fish tail, to Gray's palm.

She gripped the hilt of the Samehada sword tightly.

Wow!
Like a flowing river, terrifying yet pure chakra surged through her palm, while the chakra core in her heart cheered and transformed it, and the chakra, so rich it turned a deep purplish-red, surged wildly out of her body.

Zizi!

A raging lightning armor shimmered on his body, and a scarlet tailed beast cloak clung to him, radiating an evil aura. Dark clouds swirled wildly in the sky, and a violent storm poured down on Hui Li.

"Tailed Beast Cloak!" *2
Kisame Hoshigaki and Orochimaru's golden pupils widened simultaneously. Orochimaru, who was closer, quickly moved to the side to prevent Kairi from losing her mind and going berserk.

Beep!
Transparent bubbles rise.

Enveloped in lightning and red light, boundless power spread through his body. Having received chakra replenishment from Samehada, Hai Li felt incredibly full.

She absorbed a large amount of external chakra in a short period of time, and the powerful chakra filled her body to the point of swelling. With the chakra still stored in Samehada as a backup, she has surpassed her original body and temporarily entered the ranks of Kage!

Although this chakra will be gone once it's used up, she is still obsessed with her own surging power.

This is what she has always been pursuing.

What gives her a sense of security is strength!
The situation reversed too quickly.

Orochimaru, who had been watching from a great distance, was still somewhat bewildered.

I initially thought the enemy's abilities were too invincible, and I planned to try the sealing technique as a last resort. If that didn't work, I would sacrifice the pawn to save the king. But unexpectedly, the enemy started fighting with my sword for no reason.

Then I saw that strange fish that devoured chakra swim up to Yamato and fawn over him like a dog. My teammate, who had been hiding behind me and silently paddling along, suddenly unleashed an astonishing burst of chakra after only using one ninjutsu.

She's even a Jinchūriki!
I don't know which tailed beast it is. Konoha only has the Nine-Tails. Judging by the time, the child who sealed the Nine-Tails should be six years old now.

Looking at Hui Li's short stature, Orochimaru already had some guesses in his mind.

Was the teacher crazy to entrust the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to Danzo for training?
"Hiss! Night Crossing, do you still have any sense?"

The snake's hiss and the hoarse, magnetic voice startled Gray Glass, who was immersed in boundless power.

"rest assured."

Lightning and the tailed beast's cloak intertwined, and the blue and white arcs of electricity seemed to be stained with the tailed beast's power into an eerie scarlet, with vigorous chakra and power surging within his body.

Carrying Samehada, which was even larger than her own body, on her shoulder, she turned to look at Kisame Hoshigaki, whose eyes were filled with terrifying killing intent:

"Ready? Round two is about to begin!"

"hateful!!"

Kisame roared and clasped his hands together. Although nearly a third of his chakra had been absorbed by Samehada, the burst of power was still incredibly rapid.

"go to hell!"

Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique!
A massive shark, nearly a hundred meters tall, instantly materialized beneath his feet, swallowing Kisame whole in one gulp, and then opened its enormous jaws to bite at Kairi.

Watching the shark grow larger and larger, like a missile.

Having read the original story and possessing the Byakugan's X-ray vision, Kisame Hoshigaki's information was clearer to her than a clean glass window.

The Great Shark Bullet Technique is Kisame's strongest killing move. It is a powerful ninjutsu that can devour enemies with chakra attacks and continuously grow stronger.

Putting aside the special effects of ninjutsu, the sheer power and destructive force of ninjutsu are astonishing.

Before this, she had no means to deal with this kind of attack and could only escape at high speed using Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

but now……

call!
Samehada, who was contemplating taking a bite of the tailed beast's cloak, suddenly moved away from Kairi's body and aimed its large mouth at the giant shark cannonball that was about to charge at it.

"Samebas!"

A clear, crisp female voice echoed in the air—it was the voice of the new owner!
An incredibly delicious purple chakra flowed into his body along the sword hilt.

"Woo!"

Samehada's body swelled with excitement, its sharp shadows forming a giant sword over ten meters long.

Zizizi! !

Crimson lightning surged wildly through his body, his muscles tensed like a bow, and Gray Gli gripped the sword hilt with both hands, holding Samehada horizontally in mid-air, his body in a strange pose resembling that of a baseball player.

Countless forces merged into one, causing muscles and bones to resonate in unison!

Tight fascia and rigid, heavy bones work together to support the flow of force.

Hui Li's eyes turned cold.

Sweep!

Woo!
Samehada streaked across the sky at breakneck speed.

The terrifying force instantly shattered the torrential rain, and Samehada, carrying immense power, swept across the water, colliding violently with the water shark ridden by Kisame.

Boom! ! !

A deafening roar filled my ears, and the air trembled.

The moment the two collided, an arc-shaped shockwave spread outwards, and the water mist was blasted apart by the violent force, splashing outwards like a waterfall.

Tatata!
Stepping on the water's surface, creating a row of 'lotus flowers,' Orochimaru's black hair danced wildly on his head. He shielded his face with one hand and retreated frantically, splashing water droplets hitting his palm and sending a stinging pain, like being struck by pebbles.

They only regained their footing after being completely away from the center of the explosion.

Lower your hand and look up.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared amidst the swirling black clouds, and the rain and white mist blended indistinguishably.

In the middle of the lake at the mountaintop.

A petite figure enveloped in crimson lightning held a giant sword in one hand, pressing down on the figure in front of her. The eerie owl mask remained calm and tidy.

Blood trickled from the corner of Kisame's mouth, and he knelt on the ground, his clothes tattered, holding Samehada in his hands, his body covered in blood and trembling incessantly.

"Uh-huh!"

Veins bulged on his head, and his Samehada biceps bulged high, yet he could not withstand the immense force emanating from Samehada.

Samehada opened its huge mouth and bit Kisame's shoulder.

With his last bit of chakra absorbed, the weakened Kisame Hoshigaki could no longer hold on. He was crushed to the ground by the giant sword and fell to the water's surface, unable to move.

The outcome has been decided.

Orochimaru gently exhaled a breath of stale air.

As he watched the figure's chakra grow ever stronger, with three illusory tails faintly appearing behind it, the covetousness in his golden snake eyes vanished, replaced by a deep sense of apprehension.

Having both the power of a tailed beast and the strange, monstrous sword, the opponent was no longer a minor character he could easily provoke.

If he was only concerned about Aburame Ryoma and Danzo's disciples before, he is now even more alarmed by Hai Ri's power.

Moreover, he already has such strength at this age. How strong will he be when he gets older and his chakra core matures?
God of Ninjas?
Orochimaru shook his head, not daring to continue his wild thoughts.

Fortunately, Longma stopped him in time, otherwise he would have had another troublesome nemesis.

Having stopped the monstrous Uchiha Itachi and solved a major problem for him ahead of time, Orochimaru couldn't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude towards his old partner.
