People in Demon Slayer: The Journey That Began with Demon Slayer

However, although Yosuke has chakra, the amount is not large, because Yosuke rarely uses ninjutsu in battle, preferring to use Blood Demon Art and Breathing Technique Sword Form.

Yosuke only needs to borrow chakra when using Blood Breathing: Sixth Form and Seventh Form.

Yang Jie doesn't actively refine a lot of chakra; the chakra automatically refined by his body's chakra meridians is enough, so the total amount of chakra in his body is not much.

Therefore, the chains of the Immortal Absorption and the suppression effect of the Myojin Gate on Yosuke were not as good as Orochimaru had imagined, and Yosuke's limbs were still able to move.

Yosuke only needs to cut off his own chakra so that the chains and the Myojinmon can no longer absorb his chakra, and then Yosuke can escape.

Yosuke took out the suppression talisman he had recently obtained from the system and attached it to his body to use it.

Yosuke's chakra was severed in an instant.

In that instant, without the support of chakra, the chains and the Myojinmon lost their ability to suppress Yosuke.

Yosuke seized this opportunity.

"Blood Breathing? Fifth Form? Blood Flash!"

Yosuke breaks the seal and regains his freedom.

Orochimaru and Kami, who were chatting, turned pale. One was using a sealing technique to deal with the tailed beasts, and the other was using a wood-style ninjutsu with added sage chakra, yet they only managed to seal Yosuke for such a short time.

The god, not wanting to see Yosuke's face which made him feel unlucky, re-entered Orochimaru's body.

Yosuke was also somewhat surprised to see Orochimaru's Sage Chakra mask. People with Sage Chakra either don't appear at all, or they appear one after another.

Jugo, Jiraiya, Yosuke, and now Orochimaru—that makes four people.

Seeing this, Yosuke also entered his own unique demon-transformed sage mode.

Bone wings grew from Yosuke's back, a pair of demon horns sprouted from his forehead, dark green tear stains appeared on his face, and purple eyeshadow appeared at the corners of his eyes.

The god inside Orochimaru's body, seeing Yosuke's form, was already cursing under his breath.

"Why does Yosuke Ubuyashiki get new power again? Why is it so unfair? Why do I have to live like a rat, dependent on others!"

Jealousy has distorted God beyond recognition.

However, his reason told him that he couldn't act rashly. Orochimaru hadn't fully mastered Hashirama's cells yet, and there were many other amazing powers in the world. There must be a way to kill Yosuke. There was no need to fight him to the death here.

"Orochimaru, let's retreat!"

Orochimaru's cold, serpentine gaze was fixed on Yosuke in the sky.

"Judging from Yosuke Ubuyashiki's expression, he won't let me retreat so easily. My purpose this time was to test Yosuke Ubuyashiki's strength, but I also have a backup plan, and I don't think I have no chance of winning!"

A black energy ball, constantly flashing with black lightning, appeared in the middle of Yosuke's demon horn on his forehead. After taking shape, it shot towards Orochimaru.

Orochimaru's expression turned solemn; the energy ball posed a powerful threat to him.

"Wood Release: Ranking Technique!"

Orochimaru clapped his hands together, creating a wooden shield shaped like a fanged demon face, which he placed in front of him.

The black energy ball collided with the shield, and a storm swept across the entire island.

The island's ground cracked open, and seawater poured into the cracks, creating a scene resembling the end of the world.

However, when faced with Yosuke's powerful black energy ball attack, Orochimaru's shield only showed a circular groove, and remained firmly in front of him.

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"

"Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!"

Orochimaru transferred his chakra to the tree, causing it to grow rapidly and form a giant wooden figure with a wooden dragon wrapped around its neck.

Yosuke generated another black energy ball and shot it rapidly toward the wooden figure.

The wooden figure actually caught the black energy ball launched by Yosuke with one hand, and then threw it back in Yosuke's direction as a counterattack.

Yosuke dodged to the side, and the black energy ball fell into the sea, accompanied by a loud explosion.

A jet of water shot into the sky, and large droplets of water fell from the sky like rain.

Even though they were so far apart, Yosuke and Jugo, having arrived in the Land of Waves, could still feel the aftershocks of the terrifying battle between Yosuke and Orochimaru.

Besides the Land of Waves, the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Cloud Village, which are closest to this battlefield, also felt the intense aftershocks of the battle.

Mei Mizukage immediately set off with Chojuro to investigate.

Meanwhile, Raikage A also sent Killer Bee and Darui to investigate who was fighting.

Orochimaru stood on the wooden doll's head, manipulating it to punch Yosuke, while the wooden dragon also left the doll's neck, coordinating with the doll's punch to crash into Yosuke.

Faced with such a colossal creature, Yosuke raised his katana high.

"Immortal Technique? Blood Breathing? Fourth Form? Asura Blood Domain Heaven!"

The body of the crimson female colossus, originally composed of blood, was covered with a layer of black due to the presence of Sage Chakra.

A devastating slash severed the wooden dragon in two and then struck the wooden figure.

The wooden figure clasped its hands together, attempting to catch the slash.

However, the slash, infused with Sage Chakra, pierced directly through the wooden doll's palm, splitting it in two.

The aftershock of the slash severed Orochimaru's right hand.

Orochimaru fell from the wooden doll's head to the ground.

The powerful healing ability of Hashirama cells instantly healed Orochimaru's injuries.

Orochimaru stared grimly at Yosuke in the sky. He had thought that with his newfound Sage Body and Wood Release, even if he couldn't surpass Yosuke, he should at least be able to fight him to a standstill. But he hadn't expected that Yosuke was still a bit weaker.

However, Orochimaru was not disappointed. His body was still adapting to Hashirama's cells and had not yet reached its peak. At present, he could not use many of the Wood Release Sage Techniques.

Furthermore, with the help of the God, Orochimaru can also be compatible with other bloodline limits, such as the Rinnegan, which he has long coveted.

As long as he continues to grow stronger, Orochimaru is confident that he can surpass Yosuke.

Yosuke's expression was also very unpleasant. In such a short time, Orochimaru had already grown to this level, possessing a Wood Release ninjutsu that combined offense and defense, a self-healing ability comparable to a demon, and Sage Mode.

If Orochimaru is allowed to continue growing, no one can guarantee how far he will go.

Orochimaru has now grown into a huge threat.

Chapter 267 Orochimaru escapes using a summoning technique

The battle between Yosuke and Orochimaru continues.

However, as time went on, Orochimaru's disadvantages became more and more obvious, and he was gradually losing his strength.

Mei Terumi and Chojuro, Killer Bee and Darui, also arrived near the island.

However, none of the four dared to get too close to the island. The aftershocks of the battle were already unimaginable, and if they got too close, they could easily be caught in the crossfire.

The aftershocks of the battle caused the sea to become turbulent, and the ships of both sides inevitably drifted together with the current.

Mei Terumi and Killer Bee exchanged a glance, realizing that they had the same goal: to find out who was fighting on the island.

There was no conflict between Kirigakure and Kumogakure. After exchanging greetings, both sides observed the battle on the island from a distance on their boats.

Both sides were utterly horrified when they saw Orochimaru and saw him using Wood Release ninjutsu.

"Orochimaru, the rogue ninja of Konoha, has actually learned Wood Release ninjutsu?!"

Although neither Mei Terumi nor Killer Bee had ever witnessed Wood Release ninjutsu.

However, the legend of the legendary ninja, Hashirama Senju, is still very familiar to them.

He is a ninja god who is skilled in using "Wood Release Secret Techniques," possesses the ability to control tailed beasts, pacifies the chaotic world, and distributes the tailed beasts to various countries.

Orochimaru was disliked by none of the five great ninja villages. After all, no village would like a ninja who betrayed them, especially a disciple of a Kage. Moreover, Orochimaru was engaged in immoral human experiments.

However, Orochimaru, whom almost everyone looked down upon, had mastered the Wood Release technique, which they found extremely absurd.

Seeing Orochimaru manipulating the trees at will, the four felt a complex mix of emotions.

Killer Bee's Eight-Tails warned, "Bei, do not participate in this battle! Wood Release is very effective against us Tailed Beasts. Although I don't want to admit it, in Hashirama Senju's hands, we Tailed Beasts are like pets, completely powerless to fight back. And now Orochimaru reminds me of Hashirama Senju."

This is the first time Killer Bee has ever backed down before even seeing Gyuki fight.

Compared to Orochimaru, the others were more curious about who was fighting Orochimaru, who was able to hold his own against Orochimaru, who possessed the Wood Release technique.

Upon seeing Yosuke, who resembled a demon, the group was completely bewildered.

"Is our world really this diverse in terms of species? Do demons even exist?"

However, when Killer Bee saw Yosuke's attack method, he felt that it was familiar.

"This unique attack method...it's him?!"

Killer Bee, a master of ninjutsu, recognized Yosuke from his attack patterns as the masked man who had helped him when he was attacked by the Akatsuki.

When Mei Terumi saw Yosuke use the Rank 6: Remnant Sun Blood, she recognized him as the leader of the mysterious organization that had negotiated with Kirigakure, launched a war against Kirigakure after the negotiations broke down, and destroyed Kirigakure's buildings.

Mei Terumi and Killer Bee are completely baffled, unable to understand who Yosuke is, possessing such immense strength yet being utterly unknown in the ninja world.

In the fierce battle between Yosuke and Orochimaru.

The island is already teetering on the brink of collapse.

If Orochimaru hadn't used his Wood Release to forcibly connect the shattered island, it might have already disappeared into the sea.

Orochimaru's ninjutsu consumes a lot of chakra. The Wood Release ninjutsu was so useful at first, but now it's so frustrating.

Orochimaru's body couldn't keep up with the chakra consumed by the ninjutsu he used, so he dared not use Wood Release techniques without restraint. He could only use other ninjutsu in combination with Wood Release to defend against Yosuke's attacks.

Fortunately, Orochimaru possessed the Sage Body, which allowed him to heal his injuries; otherwise, the battle wouldn't have lasted this long.

Yosuke also found it very difficult.

Orochimaru is now choosing not to confront him head-on, but instead using various sealing techniques to deal with him. Although the effect is not as good as the Sage Exorcism and Myōjinmon, sealing techniques are currently the most effective way to counter Yōsuke.

Although Orochimaru was no match for Yosuke, Orochimaru's mysterious and unpredictable Wood Release ninjutsu and powerful survival abilities made it impossible for Yosuke to subdue Orochimaru immediately.

Moreover, even if Orochimaru is injured, his self-healing ability without seals will quickly restore his physical body.

However, Yosuke could sense that Orochimaru was already struggling compared to the initial battle, and if the fight continued, the result would be the same.

However, Yosuke had already witnessed Orochimaru's cunning, and he was certain that Orochimaru was now trying to find a way to retreat.

Yosuke's attacks became increasingly frequent, in order to block Orochimaru's retreat route as much as possible.

Orochimaru, empowered by Sage Chakra, used the Shield of the Ranks Technique to barely withstand Yosuke's attacks.
