Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 542 End and Cooperation Methods

Orochimaru watched Akainu, whose body was constantly bubbling with magma.

His face showed curiosity.

The natural energy within the opponent's body is extremely vast.

Are Logia-type Devil Fruits simply condensed natural forces?

But something still felt off.

Without any hesitation, Akainu pushed off with his feet and raised his fist with all his might, transforming it into a giant magma fist that slammed heavily into the body of Yamata no Orochi.

The scorching magma pierced through it instantly, but small white snakes kept emerging from the wound and attacking Akainu.

Countless white snakes engulfed his body.

The next moment, the smell of charred meat wafted out, and all the white snakes' bodies rapidly turned to ashes.

Akainu's body turned into magma, and he punched upwards with all his might.

During the fight, his arm turned into scorching lava.

A massive fireball!

It mimics the way a magma fruit is used, possessing the strange power to tear an island apart.

Countless streams of heated magma formed fists, relentlessly bombarding the Yamata no Orochi.

As the magma fists continued to bombard it, the Yamata no Orochi trembled incessantly.

Orochimaru's body was half destroyed by the magma, but the remaining half of his face remained unchanged, still looking very interested.

"Now it's my turn."

A giant snake head turned and aimed at Akainu.

Sage Art! Water Release! Flood!

A large amount of water gushed from the snake's mouth. Akainu's expression suddenly changed, and his body turned into magma as he quickly ran backward, escaping the spewing flood.

But since it's a flood, where can it possibly go?

The entire island was submerged in an instant.

Akainu landed with his feet submerged in water, and a feeling of weakness suddenly overwhelmed him. However, due to his special training, he did not lose his fighting ability for the time being.

"That's really surprising."

Orochimaru's lost half of his body is rapidly recovering.

The remaining seven heads simultaneously aimed at Akainu.

"Someone as powerful as you is actually afraid of seawater."

Orochimaru's Flood Ninjutsu uses water from the ocean.

The opponent's strength is enough to easily destroy a city or even a small island.

But its strength is greatly reduced when it comes into contact with seawater.

Akainu didn't speak, but silently clenched his fist.

Orochimaru tilted his head.

"Do you still want to fight? How can you possibly withstand my attacks with your current strength?"

The seven snake heads beside him opened their mouths, and intense energy fluctuations were brewing inside. If they were to spew out, they could engulf Akainu.

Akainu fell silent.

He couldn't understand why the other party, being a Devil Fruit user, could use seawater.

But now the entire island is sinking, and seawater has already covered the entire island.

Continuing the fight would be disadvantageous for him.

But he won't give up so easily.

Seeing that Akainu showed no sign of giving up, Orochimaru gently raised his hand, and a snake's mouth pointed into the distance.

Sage Art! Lightning Release! Lightning Calamity!

A violent bolt of lightning shot out into the distance.

"boom!!!"

A loud noise brought with it a wildly swirling wind that made Akainu's clothes rattle incessantly.

Akainu looked at the distant sea, where a section of the ocean had been emptied, and he could already see the land below.

He turned back and gave Orochimaru a deep look.

"You win."

Since the other party can control seawater, it is inherently difficult for a Devil Fruit user to deal with this man.

Moreover, the opponent's attack power is not weak.

In the end, Akainu chose to admit defeat.

This wasn't a life-or-death situation, and the opponent wasn't a pirate he absolutely had to kill.

The figure of the Yamata no Orochi slowly disappeared.

Orochimaru, who had landed on the water's surface, revealed a bright smile.

"Thank you, Akainu-kun."

We have obtained the other party's physical information.

He can now get a glimpse of the power of Logia-type Devil Fruits.

Akainu snorted coldly.

Soon, naval warships slowly approached from a distance.

The battle has begun.

It was that spacious conference room again.

Sengoku frowned as he looked at Uchiha Shisui and Orochimaru.

"I wonder how your country intends to cooperate with our navy?"

Unexpectedly, the other party possessed the strength of an admiral. If the other party were willing to join the Navy, they might even be able to reclaim a considerable amount of territory in the New World.

Unfortunately, neither of them was particularly interested.

If Orochimaru is this strong, then what is the strength of the one next to him?

Sengoku became curious about Uchiha Shisui.

Uchiha Shisui smiled gently at Sengoku.

He was just a figurehead; Orochimaru was the one in charge.

Orochimaru considered for a moment and asked, "I can provide you with ways to increase your strength, and you will give me Devil Fruits in return."

Jin's order was to increase the planet's combat strength and then give those ninja remnants a surprise.

But there's a lot of room for maneuver within that.

Orochimaru naturally considered his own situation as well.

Sengoku frowned, not expecting yet another person interested in Devil Fruits.

"Could you please tell me what you need the Devil Fruit for?"

The Warring States period asked curiously.

If the other party wants to use this to increase combat power, then this matter needs to be carefully considered.

However, this is highly likely, and the other party may not be telling the truth; Sengoku was merely probing.

"Of course it's for research."

Orochimaru grinned.

"I'm really curious about Devil Fruit abilities."

Devil Fruits are a specialty of this world, so he was naturally very curious about their structure and principles.

Such a thing has never been born in the ninja world.

wrong.

There was once a divine tree in the ninja world that gave birth to a strange fruit, but the relevant records are too ancient, and there is no mention of what the fruit's function was.

"For research?"

Zhan Guo's brows slowly relaxed.

If it's for research, then it's negotiable.

"We can provide you with Devil Fruits and research facilities, the only condition is that you cannot take the Devil Fruits away."

That way they wouldn't have to lose their Devil Fruits.

Orochimaru stroked his chin thoughtfully, realizing that the other side's method was entirely aimed at the advantage of the Navy.

However, Orochimaru didn't have any objections.

After all, once he understands it thoroughly, he might be able to manufacture it himself.

However, he cannot throw it directly out of bounds.

He only spoke to the Warring States period.

"We need to discuss this matter."

I came out of the conference hall.

Uchiha Shisui and Orochimaru walked through the naval base.

As Orochimaru quickly formed hand seals, a small barrier enveloped the two of them, but what was seen from the outside was the two people having a pleasant conversation.

This barrier is designed to block both sight and sound.

"Lord Orochimaru, what do you think we should teach them?"

Zhi Shui asked, somewhat troubled.

Jin gave only an order, without specifying any requirements, leaving him completely unsure of what power to grant to the inhabitants of this planet.

"I do have some ideas about that."

Orochimaru looked at Shisui meaningfully and said.

"If it succeeds, Minato and his crew will be very surprised."

Shisui looked at Orochimaru's smiling face.

I could only sense a strong sense of malice.
