Chapter 77 Poisoning

"boom!"

The Heavenly Pillar swept out, and a gust of wind blew up the hair of the turtledove.

The dove narrowed her eyes and crouched slightly. In an instant, a pink magic circle bloomed beneath her feet, radiating dazzling light.

The magic surged as if it were a physical force, instantly pressing a huge crater into the surrounding ground.

"Whoosh!"

The dove's figure instantly soared into the air, lightly touching Susanoo's arms with its feet, and leaped onto Susanoo's back.

"Moonless Style: Empty Thrust!"

The long blade was drawn, its cold light flashing. The blade in Ikaruga's hand once again sliced ​​through space, leaving a dark crack, and thrust straight towards Fugaku inside.

At that very moment, a sharp whooshing sound suddenly came from afar.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Several sharp wind blades whistled in, like invisible swords, rushing toward the direction of the spotted dove.

The dove frowned, quickly changed its move, and swiftly wielded its long blade in front of it.

"Clang clang clang!"

The clanging of metal echoed repeatedly. The dove's blade, like a leaping silver snake, precisely deflected each wind blade. Sparks flew, and shockwaves surged.

However, just as she blocked the last wind blade, a chilling whistling sound came from behind her. The dove's pupils constricted, and she whirled around.

Susanoo swung its arm again, and the Heavenly Pillar was already within reach.

"Oh no!"

The dove's pupils contracted sharply, realizing it was too late to dodge. She gritted her teeth, gripped the hilt of her sword tightly with both hands, and held the long sword horizontally in front of her chest.

"boom!"

A deafening roar erupted, and the shockwave spread outwards like ripples. The dove's body was sent flying backwards like a nail struck by a giant hammer.

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood spurted from her mouth, drawing a dazzling red arc in the air.

While suspended in mid-air, the turtledove endured the excruciating pain, adjusted its body, and landed heavily on its feet.

The immense impact propelled her body backward, carving two deep furrows in the hard ground.

"Hiss hiss hiss"

Suddenly, a piercing pain shot through her feet, as if countless tiny needles were tearing at her skin. The dove abruptly lowered her head, her pupils contracting sharply.

Suddenly, a thin layer of purplish-black liquid covered the ground. The eerie venom was emitting plumes of white smoke and a pungent, corrosive odor.

"drink!"

With a low growl, the dove unleashed a burst of magical power. An invisible force emanated from her, pushing the surrounding venom away like a tidal wave.

However, by this time, several gruesome wounds had been corroded on the soles of her feet, with blood constantly seeping out and mixing with the venom.

The once fair and smooth toes have turned an unnatural purplish-black color, which is slowly spreading upwards along the calves.

"Sword Shadow Clone Technique!"

A low shout came from afar. The next instant, countless shuriken came flying through the air, densely packed like a metal storm.

The dove's eyes sharpened, and the long sword danced in its hand, creating a flash of silver light.

The clanging sounds of weapons clashing were incessant; each swing of the sword precisely knocked down several shuriken.

Suddenly, an ordinary-looking shuriken burst open, releasing a puff of white smoke. With a "bang," Orochimaru appeared out of thin air.

Ikaruga's pupils contracted sharply, but it was too late. Orochimaru's long blade stabbed straight at her like a venomous snake, aimed directly at her heart.

The dove gritted its teeth and slightly shifted its body to the side.

"Pfft!"

The blade pierced the dove's left arm, and blood gushed out instantly. A fierce glint flashed in the dove's eyes, and it abruptly contracted the muscles in its left arm, clamping the blade embedded in its body tightly.

Without the slightest hesitation, the long blade in her right hand flashed with a cold light, aiming straight for Orochimaru's throat.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, Orochimaru's body suddenly turned into a cloud of white smoke, and the tip of his sword pierced into the void.

"Damn it"

The dove gritted her teeth, her eyes burning with rage, and the wound on her left arm stung terribly, but she had no time to care.

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a powerful aura rushed towards us.

Fugaku's Susanoo charged in like a moving mountain, raising the Heavenly Pillar high, about to crash down upon him.

"Oh no!" Ikaruga's pupils constricted sharply. Without a second thought, she slammed her feet into the ground, her body shooting sideways like an arrow. She barely avoided the attack of the Heavenly Pillar.

Before she could even get a foothold, several giant dragons formed from purplish-black venom rushed toward her with menacing force.

"Moonless Style - Peerless Elegance!" the spotted dove uttered in a low voice, its long blade drawing an arc in the air.

A fierce whirlwind erupted from her center, cutting through the surrounding air like invisible blades. The leading poisonous dragons were instantly severed, turning into specks of black mist that dissipated into the air.

However, at that moment, a sudden, sharp sense of danger, like needles pricking his back, came from behind the turtledove.

She turned around abruptly and saw Orochimaru rushing towards her without her noticing. The Kusanagi sword in his hand, covered in Armament Haki, instantly lengthened, spanning a hundred meters, and aimed straight for her back.

"It's too late!"

The dove's heart sank. Her unparalleled beauty had not yet been fully unleashed, and she had no time to change her tactics and defend.

A resolute glint flashed in her eyes. She gritted her teeth, and magic surged toward the blade like a tidal wave.

Then, with a sudden burst of power from his right hand, the long blade sliced ​​through the air with a sharp whistling sound, heading straight for Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword.

"Break it off!" the turtledove growled, its voice filled with resentment and anger.

"clang!"

A piercing metallic clang exploded in the air. Sparks flew as the long blade of the katana clashed with the Kusanagi sword, unleashing astonishing power.

However, to Ikaruga's surprise, the Kusanagi sword did not break as she had expected.

The moment the blades clashed, the dove felt a powerful recoil that made her hands go numb.

Although the Kusanagi sword was slightly deflected by this force, it still thrust forward with unstoppable momentum.

"How is that possible?!" The turtledove's eyes widened.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Before he could finish speaking, with a "thud," the Kusanagi sword had already deeply pierced the right shoulder of the turtledove.

The dove's body trembled violently as intense pain, like an electric shock, coursed through her entire body. She gritted her teeth, trying to steady her trembling arms, but she could no longer maintain her swordplay.

In that split second, the venomous dragon roared in front of her, and with a "whoosh," it grazed past her shoulder.

"Ah!" the turtledove couldn't help but let out a low cry. The excruciating pain of the venom corroding the skin instantly shot through it, as if it were on fire.

The dove gritted its teeth, leaped back a few steps to create distance, and then looked up at the other creature.

At this moment, the enormous Susanoo stood before her like a small mountain, its black chakra surging continuously, radiating a chilling pressure.

Meanwhile, Orochimaru stood atop Manda's head, his golden pupils gleaming with a dangerous light.

At this moment, Banjiu's face was extremely gloomy. She tried her best and used all her skills, but she couldn't even touch the hem of the other party's clothes.

His body was covered in wounds, and the venom was constantly corroding him, making it difficult to even breathe.

"It seems I underestimated you," the turtledove said with difficulty, its voice hoarse, "but don't think you can defeat me like this."

Her right hand gripped the sword hilt tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force. She took a deep breath, a resolute glint in her eyes: "This is my last move."

Ong!

A massive magic circle suddenly appeared beneath the dove's feet. Intricate runes shimmered with dazzling light, the ground trembled slightly, and the air was filled with chilling magical fluctuations.

"Stop her!"

Orochimaru's expression changed drastically, a hint of wariness flashing in his golden pupils. He swung his hand sharply, and the Kusanagi sword shot out like an arrow, aiming straight for the throat of the katana.

"It's too late!" A cold smile curled at the corner of the dove's mouth.

"Secret Technique! Garuda Flame!"

With a low squeak from the turtledove, the magic circle suddenly lit up with a blinding light. The longsword in her hand drew a graceful arc.

boom!

A deafening explosion suddenly erupted. Violent flames erupted from the sword's blade, instantly engulfing the flying Kusanagi sword.

The intense heat distorted the air, and the flames danced wildly like living creatures, transforming in the blink of an eye into a giant firebird that hurtled straight toward Orochimaru.

Orochimaru's pupils contracted sharply, and a hint of seriousness flashed in his golden eyes.

He slammed his right hand on the ground and shouted, "Ninja Art: Triple Rashomon!"

Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly trembled. Three enormous demon-faced portals rose from the ground, layer upon layer, blocking Orochimaru's path.

However, the firebird did not crash directly into Rashomon. Instead, it traced an arc in mid-air, bypassing the triple defenses.

"What?!" Orochimaru's expression changed drastically.

Just as the firebird was about to devour Orochimaru, Manda suddenly raised its massive body. A purplish-black venom flooded its scales.

The firebird and the serpents collided violently, their venom instantly vaporizing.

Manda let out a painful hiss, and its massive body quickly turned into smoke, but it still bought Orochimaru some time.

"Orochimaru! Step back!" Fugaku's voice suddenly rang out, his tone urgent.

The next second, the massive figure of Susanoo instantly blocked Orochimaru's path, and Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan spun wildly.

"boom!"

A deafening explosion resounded throughout the space. The blinding light made it impossible to open one's eyes, and the violent shockwave swept around, kicking up clouds of dust.

The center of the explosion resembled a small volcano, with scorching heat waves constantly spreading outwards, and the surrounding air distorted and deformed due to the high temperature.

The entire tower trembled violently under this terrifying impact, and cracks spread rapidly like a spider web.

The clicking sounds were incessant, as if the entire building was groaning.

The aftershocks subsided after a short while, but the air was still thick with the heat.

At the epicenter of the explosion, Susanoo's surface was covered with fine cracks, like a piece of porcelain about to shatter.

Fugaku took a deep breath and slowly deactivated Susanoo, revealing the two figures. Surprisingly, Fugaku and Orochimaru had almost no injuries.

Orochimaru looked at Fugaku and said, "Thanks to your Susanoo, otherwise the power of this attack would not have been underestimated."

Fugaku nodded without saying anything, and then the two of them looked at each other.

The turtledove lay motionless on the ground. Her body had been completely corroded by the purplish-black venom, and her once fair skin was now covered with terrifying markings.
