The powerful water pressure, from the outside in, quickly enveloped the manta ray's entire body. Immediately, the oppressive force from all directions coalesced into a central mass.

Boom!

It was as if a giant torpedo had been detonated in the water, a column of water mixed with the flesh and blood of manta rays shooting into the sky. Countless splashes of water fell down, but the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon on the opposite side had vanished without a trace.

"I see, so you're using this tactic?"

A smile played on Wuyue's lips, seemingly unaware that a transparent water sphere had suddenly condensed on the surface of the water behind him. The water sphere then rapidly solidified into the likeness of Suigetsu Hozuki, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace, his gigantic Samehada slashing horizontally towards Wuyue from left to right.

puff.

The greatsword sliced ​​Mugetsu in two without the slightest resistance, sending a shiver down Sushiro Fuguki's spine, a feeling of disbelief washing over him. He killed him? He actually killed him?

But in the next second, his excitement shattered like a bubble.

But after Wuyue's body was split in two, it turned into two streams of water in mid-air, and before it hit the ground, it reassembled into a complete body.

Suigetsu Hozuki was stunned again, muttering to himself, "Water Transformation Technique, this is a Water Transformation Technique?! You bastard, what are you...?"

This was, of course, the effect of the devouring skill. Mugetsu hadn't expected that after devouring Hozuki Mangetsu, she would learn all of his abilities without any instruction.

However, Wuyue had neither the obligation nor the inclination to explain to the other party. "Well, I've had enough. Let's end it here." She stretched out her hands and quickly formed hand seals.

"Damn it! He actually knows this seal!" The expression of the Watermelon Pufferfish suddenly turned extremely panicked. He stepped abruptly onto the water and fled into the distance.

At this moment, Wuyue completed her last hand seal, raising her left index and middle fingers and gradually puffing out her cheeks.

Water Escape · Water Breaks Waves!

puff.

A dark blue jet of water shot out from his mouth. The condensed water pressure condensed the massive flow into a thin line, extending rapidly like a high-pressure water gun. No, it was more like a laser beam than a high-pressure water gun!

Its terrifying power seemed to pierce through everything! In an instant, the body of the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon was severed in two, its blood staining the sky.

pat.

Samehada, having lost its master, fell to the ground, but Mugetsu didn't even glance at it before turning and leaving.

……

……

Just as the battle here ended, the main battlefield between Kirigakure and Konoha also gradually came to a close.

"The enemies on the left have all been eliminated," Rina reported softly as she walked slowly to the center.

"The right side has been basically cleared out as well." Saori and Yekura also arrived from not far away.

"Hmm, this battle should be almost over." Yui, who had been in the central area, closed her Sharingan and exhaled a breath of stale air. "Now, we just need to wait for Mugetsu-kun to return."

The women all looked rather disheveled. Their faces were covered in dust, their hair was disheveled, and their clothes were torn in several places. Fortunately, none of them had suffered any serious injuries. Even the few drops of blood on their clothes were mostly left by the enemy.

"Well. I thought it was going to be a tough battle." Yekura clearly wanted to integrate into the group and intentionally started the conversation. "I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

"Yeah, we won pretty easily, didn't we?" Rina nodded in agreement. "I think the most crucial thing was Muzuki-kun's opening move—it was so cool!"

"Tch tch tch, no matter how handsome he is, he's just a fatso..."

Saori's sharp tongue instinctively made her want to retort, but halfway through her sentence, she suddenly cried out in alarm. "Hey, watch out!" In her grayish-white pupils, a large purple snake was charging wildly toward them.

233 Boss, one serving of grilled snake meat, please.

The Legendary Sannin of Konoha each summoned beasts from one of the three great sacred lands. Furthermore, each of their summoned beasts possessed a distinct personality. For example, the slug was gentle, the giant toad was benevolent, and Manda was ferocious.

Right now, this giant purple python is in a frenzy of fighting with the Hidden Mist. Or rather, having finally tasted the deliciousness of human flesh, it is unwilling to end it here.

It still wants to eat! Moreover, this snake is very picky about its food; it won't eat dead things!

But what if there are hardly any Kirigakure ninja left on the battlefield? No problem, just shift the target to the Konoha camp. It doesn't care whether the other side is from the same village as its contractor, nor does it care about their identities. All it thinks about is satisfying its appetite.

Hmm, at least these human girls look tender and delicious! So, it made its move!

Yui and the other girls were naturally unaware that in the giant snake's eyes, they had become its prey. However, judging from its menacing approach, it was clearly not there for a friendly chat. Instantly, they all assumed a defensive posture.

"You don't need to do anything." Suddenly, a voice rang in their ears, saying, "Leave this little reptile to me."

Wuyue's figure appeared in mid-air, her right arm slightly raised, and she punched the tongue.

Bang.

A loud, muffled thud.

The massive body of the Thousand Serpents slid off to the right. With a deafening roar, everything in its path, from towering trees to solid rock mountains, was instantly crushed to dust. Dust and debris billowed into the air.

The noise attracted the attention of the surrounding ninjas. When their eyes fell upon it, they were utterly shocked by what they saw.

"What, what's going on?"

"That must be Lord Orochimaru's summoning beast, so why is it fighting with Lord Mugetsu?"

"Judging from the situation, this doesn't seem like a joke..."

The Konoha ninjas hesitated, unsure what to do. Only a few who knew Manda's nature shook their heads inwardly. Truly, having such a summoning beast was a real headache.

"Are they trying to get some information out of me?"

Unlike his other colleagues in Konoha, Mugetsu, who knew the mad scientist's temperament well, noticed Orochimaru's tall figure with great interest as he glanced out of the corner of his eye, making no attempt to stop him. "This guy, his personality is really awful."

Little did they know, he was also seen by many as one of the most ill-tempered members of the group. Some Konoha members had even privately nicknamed Mugetsu "Perverted Demon Dragon."

"Damn brat, you hurt me!" This Manda lived up to its reputation as a very powerful summoning beast, its scales providing extremely strong defense. Even after receiving a heavy blow from Mugetsu, it recovered from its stun in just a moment, its neck once again held high.

Since you want to play, let's go big.

With a defiant smirk at Orochimaru, Mugetsu turned his gaze to Manda before him. Just as he was about to say something, a notification sound suddenly rang out again.

Make your choice, dear host.

First, make it call you "Dad," otherwise steam it.

Second, make it call you grandpa, otherwise you'll have it braised.

Third, make it call you "Grandma" and don't let it be used to make snake soup.

Wow! Your option is a bit bizarre!

Who the hell wants to be the elder of this ugly reptile?! Uh, wait, it seems like I'll still be considered a reptile after transforming into a dragon? Thinking about it that way, it's a little more acceptable? No, no! This is too weird!

Just as Wuyue's thoughts were drifting, Wanshe's bright yellow vertical pupils stared intently at him, and it spoke again. "You wretched brat! Didn't you hear me talking to you?" As its chilling voice rang out, the snake's head lunged at Wuyue like a cannonball. Although this creature was a reptile, it wasn't unintelligent; at least it knew how to ambush and strike first.

Even so, it still underestimated the strength of this "kid" before it. Before its chilling fangs could even get close, Wuyue had already vanished from the spot.

"Hey, you just called yourself 'Grandpa'?" Standing on its head, Wuyue said calmly. "In that case, call me Grandpa. I might consider forgiving what you just did."

"You bastard!" Wanshe roared in fury, shaking his head violently, trying to throw Wuyue off. "You arrogant human brat, how dare you look down on me?!"

Even his contractor, Orochimaru, treated him with great respect. Who did this brat think he was, daring to make him call him grandpa?

"It seems our negotiations have failed." Wuyue sighed with a hint of regret, "Then there's nothing we can do." She raised her right index and middle fingers and grasped her right wrist with her left hand.

Crystal Escape: Crystal Wall Prison.

Rumble.

With a thunderous roar like splitting mountains and shattering rocks, four dark red crystal walls suddenly rose from the ground where the Thousand Serpent stood, enveloping its body tightly like a pet cage.

No matter how much it struggled, the myriad serpent could not break free from the crystal cage, which filled it with a strong sense of unease. "Damn it! What are you doing?"

Swish.

Wuyue didn't answer it at all. Her body landed at the only exit above her head, and her hands moved in quick succession, forming hand seals once more. Lava Release: Heavenly Fire Purgatory!

234 Snake's Amazement

Boom!

Wuyue opened her mouth, and a ball of magma energy, condensed to its maximum, appeared out of thin air. Immediately, the magma ball rapidly expanded, forming a gigantic magma sphere over ten meters in diameter. The crimson magma sphere floated in mid-air, like a miniature red sun.

"What, what is this?"

"It's so hot. Even from that distance, I can still feel the scorching heat."

"Lord Mugetsu... are you going to burn Lord Orochimaru's summoned beast to a crisp?"

The Konoha ninjas stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief. They clearly hadn't expected Mugetsu to be so ruthless, unleashing such a deadly move.

This is going to kill Manda... No, it shouldn't be phrased as "kill him"! It should be "certain death"! No one believes that Manda will survive this attack.

Even Wanshe herself thought so; it writhed wildly, letting out a mournful roar. "You wretched brat!" A ferocious and resentful light flashed in its venomous eyes.

"Is this your final regret?" Wuyue looked at it with disdain and pointed downwards with her right hand.

Rumble.

Under his control, a massive flow of lava crashed down.

"Orochimaru, you bastard!" With a desperate scream, Manda was unable to even use his Earth Release escape technique, which he was skilled in, inside the cage constructed entirely of Crystal Release, and his entire body was swallowed by magma.

hum.

The terrifying explosive force created a dark red, semi-circular light shield on the ground.

Despite witnessing the death of his long-time summoning beast, Orochimaru showed no sadness or grief on his face.

His gaze was thoughtfully fixed on the exploding lava flow, which continued to explode with loud bangs within the Crystal Release barrier. The firelight illuminated his devilishly handsome face, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Is this a Bloodline Limit Jutsu? Truly, terrifying power." "Yuri Mugetsu, you've indeed fully matured."

In fact, if he had shown himself earlier and used reverse summoning, Manda might have escaped with his life. But for some reason, he didn't.

Perhaps it was to give Wuyue an explanation? Or perhaps it was simply to find a point of reference to witness the potential of Wuyue's move?

Thinking deeper, he probably harbored resentment towards his own spirit beast for a long time and was planning to use someone else to get rid of it? Ultimately, no one can know what the real factors were.

There's a saying, "Don't try to guess what Snake is thinking." This mad scientist, who doesn't even care about his own gender, what isn't he capable of?

Gudu, Gudu.

After an unknown amount of time, the magma flow within the Crystal Release finally cooled down, transforming into a strange, blackish-red object. The massive corpse of Manda was embedded within it, like a fossil.

"Congratulations, host, for completing the selection. You will be rewarded with fifty days of cultivation and five years of dragon growth cycle."

Hearing the notification in her mind, Wuyue flashed and landed on the ground. Her gaze was fixed on the rolling lava flow before her, but her mind was elsewhere. "Wow! It's turned into this state, I guess it's inedible now. I was actually quite looking forward to roasting snake meat."

"If you like snake meat, I can summon a few more for you." Orochimaru's hoarse voice suddenly rang out beside him.

"No need, I was just saying it casually." Wu Yue seemed to have expected this, turned her head to look at him, and said, "Although I have many questions to ask, I'm afraid you won't tell me the truth."

"That depends on what Mugetsu-kun wants to ask." Orochimaru's face revealed a sinister smile.
