I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapter 114 Chapter 116 Orochimaru Style

"Tsukimi Rinpa, do you know what the most successful species on this planet is? That's right, it's you humans."

Seeing that Tsukimi Inaba was already unable to move due to being entangled by two giant, earthen-yellow pythons, Higuchi Daisori continued speaking on his own.

"Primates, the most intelligent of all beings, the biological name of humankind certainly carries an innate arrogance, but it can also be said to be the real deal. The newly emerging monster species, although possessing all sorts of special abilities, have no choice but to submit to the tyranny of human technology and industry, hiding in the shadows of society to spy on this bizarre and wonderful world."

They had originally planned to remain in hiding for a long time, for more than a decade, until they had accumulated enough power to wage war against human society.

However, the variable of the extraordinary individual caused Higuchi Orochi's years of hard work to go to waste.

If we continue to adhere to Higuchi Orochi's original plan of training yokai students and waiting ten years to launch a full-scale war against human society, it would be tantamount to trying to find a sword by marking the boat where it was moored.

"Now, the plan has changed. My ambition to rule this country within ten years has been shattered, but there's always a way out. Another dream of mine is about to be realized here! Actually, I really like humans. If I could be reincarnated as a human, what kind of scenery would I experience? I'm really looking forward to it."

"Tsukimi no Inaba, you will become the vessel of my dreams. From now on, we will be forever united as one."

Higuchi Orochi can use its unique sorcery to seize the body of Tsukimi no Inaba, and from then on live in human society in Tsukimi no Inaba's body.

This could be called a betrayal by the demon race, but it was a great victory for Higuchi Orochi himself.

This means that the battle between humans and yokai is no longer relevant to it, and no one or yokai will know about Higuchi Orochi's past. It can also stop hiding like before and enjoy technology, literature, and art like a real human.

After putting down the burdens of being the King of Yokai in Tokyo and his teacher, Higuchi Orochi can finally live for himself!

Higuchi Orochi spoke tenderly, like a lover, but the sinister and terrifying tone sent a chill down Tsukimi Inaba's spine.

"You want my body?"

Tsukimi Inaba's expression was cold and lifeless; even in her desperate situation, not a ripple could be seen in her eyes.

"That's right! Tsukimi Rinpa, taking your body is only the first step. Next, I will cultivate more and more suitable vessels," Higuchi Orochi said with a smile.

"By constantly taking over human bodies, I will not only gain immortality, but I will also use this method to understand all the truths of the world, whether scientific or mystical. One day I will definitely unravel all the secrets of monsters and superhumans."

Tsukimi Inaba raised her fair and delicate face and said softly:

"My body no longer belongs to me, and naturally it is not something a monster like you can lay a finger on."

"What do you mean?" Higuchi Orochi was slightly taken aback.

Just then, Tsukimi Inaba had released the second cursed seal, and her tall and alluring figure had returned to its original petite state, with the two extra arms on her back retracting back behind her.

Because of his sudden shrinkage, the python, which had been tightly binding him, now finally revealed gaps.

Taking advantage of this brief respite, Tsukimi Inaba broke free from the two pythons' restraints and, like a gust of wind, suddenly rushed towards Higuchi Orochi.

Inaba's nodachi had long since broken, leaving her unarmed. However, she could sense that after making a contract with Naruto Uchiha, some kind of energy had appeared within her.

The feeling of wind, the sensation of it flowing through your limbs and bones!

With a flick of her wrist, the girl unleashed an invisible vacuum blade.

With a "thud," one of Higuchi Orochi's white-scaled arms was severed and tossed high into the air.

Moreover, before the severed arm even hit the ground, it was cleaved into pieces by a web of interwoven wind blades.

In this way, it is no longer possible to reconnect them through the snake's body as it was when it was cut in half before.

Tsukimi Inaba clasped her hands together, brewing an even more violent storm. At this critical moment, her body suddenly stiffened, the storm between her hands went out of control, and the chaotic airflow blew her away, causing her to fall face down to the ground.

Why—

The dirt on the floor smudged the girl's face, and Tsukimi felt numb all over, not even having the strength to twitch her little finger.

She felt something tiny wriggling at the back of her neck.

"Tsukimi Inaba, you really gave me a pleasant surprise. In addition to mastering the transformation of jutsu, you can also use wind-attribute demonic arts."

Higuchi Orochi stretched out his only remaining right hand toward Tsukimi Inaba. In his palm was a tiny white snake, as thin as a venomous insect. The white snake opened its mouth, revealing even smaller fangs.

"When you were bound by the python, these small snakes hid in the python's scales and quietly crawled into your clothes."

"Don't worry, these white snakes don't have long fangs, and their venom isn't deadly. It will just put you in a deep sleep. Next, I'm going to take you to a secret base where we'll perform a reincarnation ritual."

A hint of despair crept into Inaba's eyes as she watched Tsukimi, her eyelids grew heavy, and the figure of Higuchi Orochi began to blur.

But she bit her lip, drawing bright red blood, maintaining her last shred of consciousness.

"Tsukimi, you're so stubborn. You know, if you just fall asleep, all the pain will be gone. You don't want to perform the reincarnation ritual while you're awake..."

Higuchi Orochi turned his head, looked at the severed arm, and shook his head.

"It's really a bit inconvenient to only have one arm left, but I'm already immortal, ugh—"

Higuchi opened its mouth as if to vomit, and from its mouth emerged a pair of palms that spread open its upper and lower jaws, from which emerged a completely wet and unharmed Higuchi.

Like shedding its skin, it leaves behind a wrinkled, scaly human skin.

"Seriously, that's disgusting. Your move reminds me of an old friend."

Just as Higuchi Orochi was about to pick up Tsukimi Inaba from the ground, he suddenly felt a chill behind him and quickly turned around.

No one knows when it started, but a figure dressed in black with red clouds, like a ghost, has been standing on the remaining half of the roof of the side hall, coldly watching it, as if it were a natural enemy.

Three ominous black magatama swirled within his scarlet pupils.
