Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

"What's the point of saying these things at a time like this? Only one of us can leave here today; the other's soul will be devoured."

Orochimaru's eyes flashed with a chilling light. Having gone this far, how could he possibly stop?

......

Outside the soul space, in the laboratory, after the petri dish exploded, the container lay on the ground, with nutrient solution spilled all over the floor.

At that moment, the container lying on the ground suddenly opened its eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he suddenly opened his mouth wide and spat out a scroll from his abdomen, from which he took out glass syringes filled with a light red liquid.

Orochimaru picked up the syringe and prepared to inject himself into his vein.

Suddenly, his left hand trembled, and he grabbed his right wrist, stopping the injection.

At that moment, a furious voice echoed from within Orochimaru's body: "Stop! Are you insane? This blood contains a foreign consciousness! Are you trying to kill us all?!"

"That's better than being devoured by you." Orochimaru's words carried a hint of madness.

In the tug-of-war within the soul space, despite gaining the upper hand, he ultimately fell into a disadvantageous position. More than half of the soul space had been taken over by Yi Shi, and the difference in soul strength between the two sides was still too obvious.

Orochimaru had also considered this worst-case scenario, so he had prepared diluted white feather blood in advance.

Orochimaru has been studying Bai Yu's blood for many years, but he has never been able to understand the Bai Yu consciousness contained within it. That's why he is unwilling to merge with Bai Yu's blood. Even though he has a relatively harmonious relationship with Bai Yu, he would rather die than hand over his soul to someone else to control.

As for the diluted Bai Yu blood, although it still contains fragments of Bai Yu's consciousness, its control over it is not as strong.

The diluted white feather blood could enhance his soul power and physical strength. After realizing that he might be backfired by Isshiki, Orochimaru would rather perish together with Isshiki than let Isshiki get his way.

"Don't even think about it!" With a twist, he controlled Orochimaru's left hand and snapped Orochimaru's right hand, which was holding the glass syringe, causing his wrist to rotate 360 ​​degrees.

Ding!

The glass syringe fell to the ground with a thud, but it did not break.

Just as Orochimaru's right hand returned to normal, Isshiki once again controlled his left hand to tightly grasp his right hand.

"Lord Orochimaru, what's wrong?"

At that moment, a bald boy covered in scars walked into the laboratory.

The loud noise had echoed throughout the underground laboratory, so Xin followed the sound to check the situation.

"Believe me! Inject me now!" Orochimaru shouted sternly.

"Stop!" A voice came from Orochimaru's body, startling Shin.

"quick!"

Orochimaru shouted, his left and right hands struggling, his arms twisted together like a pretzel.

"Yes! Lord Orochimaru!" Shin quickly stepped forward and picked up the glass syringe that had fallen to the ground.

"Stop! I can give you anything Orochimaru can give you! I can make you live forever with me!"

Yi Shi finally panicked. He could feel the special energy contained in the red liquid in the glass syringe, which was basically the same as the special bloodline he had absorbed last time.

Last time, even in his perfect condition, he was affected by the soul aura within this bloodline. Now, in this state, he would probably find it difficult to resist, so he immediately began to win over Xin.

"I am loyal only to Lord Orochimaru!" Without the slightest hesitation, Shin shook his head and directly inserted a needle into Orochimaru's neck, injecting the red liquid in the syringe into Orochimaru's body.

Shin could tell that Lord Orochimaru was in a bad situation, and as a loyal subordinate, he had no disloyal intentions whatsoever.

"Damn it!" Soon, a roar came from Orochimaru's body.

Immediately afterward, Orochimaru stopped moving, and after a moment, suddenly added, "One more needle!"

"Yes!" Shin stared intently at Orochimaru and gave him another injection.

This time, Orochimaru's face showed a look of madness as he slowly closed his eyes.

Xin quickly picked up the third syringe, ready to receive Orochimaru's orders at any moment.

After an unknown amount of time, Shin felt his arms getting sore from holding the same position, when Orochimaru's body suddenly twitched.

"No—! How could I lose to... again?"

The desperate voice abruptly stopped.

Orochimaru suddenly opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood. At the same time, a large amount of blood flowed from his seven orifices, and his aura quickly weakened.

However, Orochimaru's face showed ecstatic joy.

"Lord Orochimaru, how are you?"

Xin asked cautiously.

Orochimaru turned around, smiling, and gently touched Shin's cheek: "Shin, you did a great job! Thanks to you this time, and..."

Before he could finish speaking, Orochimaru collapsed and fell into a coma.

With the help of diluted white feather blood, the first needle greatly increased Orochimaru's mental strength, and the second needle consumed the power of Isshiki's soul. In the end, Orochimaru successfully counterattacked and killed Isshiki, completely devouring Isshiki's soul.

After gaining all of Isshiki's power, Orochimaru risked further injury, using up his last bit of chakra to obliterate the remaining trace of Shiraha's soul aura within him.

......

at the same time.

Off the sea.

Within the Grell mine.

Bai Yu, who was in deep meditation, suddenly opened his eyes and frowned slightly.

"My soul aura appeared in a new familiar's body, but was then destroyed?!"

11349578

[Chapter 247. The Epic-Level Enhancement of the Konoha Collapse Plan (Part 240)]

Bai Yu ended his meditative state, stopped absorbing the life particles from the Grell ore vein, and stood up.

The last time this situation occurred was after the Wood Spirit incarnation, Issei, entered a parallel world, and An Lushan, who obtained his bloodline power, suddenly disappeared.

However, at that time, due to the cross-world connection, Shiraha's perception as the original body was weakened.

Only the Wood Spirit Incarnation, Yicheng, vaguely sensed that the bloodline power within An Lushan's body had disappeared and then entered the body of another creature, but before he could perceive it clearly, the soul aura was annihilated.

This time, Bai Yu's perception was more obvious because the person who eliminated the soul aura from his bloodline power was clearly in the same world as him.

However, before the soul's essence could be fully integrated into the other's soul, it was completely destroyed.

There are probably very few ninjas in the entire ninja world who can do something like this.

One must possess either powerful spiritual energy, a special physique, an extremely large amount of chakra, or both, to erode his soul aura.

There are not many people in the entire ninja world who possess his bloodline power: two "Kodama Incarnations," three direct bloodline descendants, Shion, Mitsuko, and Taichi, as well as two subordinates who are still by his side, Ranke and Timothy.

Mitsuko and Taichi followed Kushina.

The current top combat power of Uzushio Ninja Village is definitely the number one among the six great ninja villages, even if Bai Yu is outside.

Kushina has begun learning the Nine-Tailed Sage Mode.

Four years ago, Shiroha's raw strength was probably not as good as Kushina's.

He estimated that his strength now surpassed Kushina's, but it wasn't an overwhelming gap.

So the problem definitely didn't originate from Taiyi or Guangzi.

As for Shion, Issei, the incarnation of the Kodama, is stationed in the Land of Demons. Unless one possesses Kage-level strength, they cannot defeat him.

"Aside from the one technique that might have extracted An Lushan's bloodline, the only other one that possesses my blood is Orochimaru. Could it be...?"

Bai Yu fell into deep thought, and through the process of elimination, he had a general idea of ​​his target.

Isshiki was severely injured by Naruto and Sasuke. Unless he absorbs the Dragon Vein Chakra or captures more Tailed Beasts, it would be impossible for him to absorb their bloodline at this time. That would be courting death.

Orochimaru, on the other hand, obtained his blood and also acquired the complete "Companion Python Meditation Method".

If Orochimaru were to dilute his blood and discover a way to eliminate the soul consciousness within his bloodline, it wouldn't be impossible.

Even if you have the method, you still need extremely strong mental strength and chakra.

The biggest problem with the 'Reanimation Jutsu' is that it weakens the soul's power, so Orochimaru would probably find it difficult to do so.

Unless he has some amazing encounter, such as obtaining the Yin power of the Sage of Six Paths.

"If it's Orochimaru, then it's not necessarily a bad thing."

Bai Yu smiled.

If Orochimaru absorbed his blood but simultaneously eliminated the soul consciousness within it, then he could cultivate the "Companion Python Meditation Technique" using the power of his bloodline without being directly controlled by Bai Yu's bloodline.

However, this "Companion Python Meditation Method" is a derivative meditation method derived from the "World Tree Companion Python," a fourth-level bloodline source.

Once Orochimaru trains, he and Hakuyu will be bloodline sorcerers of the same origin.

Moreover, Bai Yu is a "Summoning Sorcerer" who is superior to other bloodline sorcerers of the same rank, and he cultivates the "Ancient Yinduo Advanced Sorcerer Meditation Method".

Therefore, even without the suppression of soul consciousness, there is still the restraint of the difference in meditation level.

Even a level two sorcerer with the same level four bloodline source would probably be no match for Bai Yu.

Even if Orochimaru advances to the second level of bloodline sorcerer, it remains to be seen how much of his strength he can unleash against Bai Yu.

Their relationship was relatively harmonious, with no fundamental conflicts. Even if they couldn't become close friends, they could cooperate, and at least they wouldn't become enemies.

"If Orochimaru really did that, I'd have to ask him for some pointers. Being able to make a preliminary breakthrough in understanding the soul consciousness contained within bloodline power is quite impressive!"

Bai Yu decided that he would go back this time to discuss things with Orochimaru.

After just four years of cultivation, Bai Yu's spiritual power materialized and entered the 'liquefaction' bottleneck. The effect of the Grell Stone was much greater than he had imagined.

Without the help of the Grell Stone, even if he had Guoxin Jushi summon the Samadhi True Fire to train his mental power, the time it would take him to recover his mental power would also increase as his mental power increased. It would conservatively take him ten years to reach the bottleneck of mental power liquefaction.

If he had stayed in the mine to continue his secluded cultivation, he might have been able to enter the spiritual crystallization stage in just one or two years.

However, because he felt an uncomfortable swelling in his soul recently, he decided to slow down the rate at which he absorbed the life particles from the Grell vein.

After much deliberation, Bai Yu concluded that the reason for his rapid cultivation and the excessively rapid growth of his spiritual power was that he had to first have Guoxin Jushi summon the Samadhi True Fire to train his spiritual power and eliminate the discomfort of the swelling in his soul before continuing to materialize his spiritual power.

"I didn't expect that cultivating too quickly would also be a problem."

Bai Yu sighed inwardly.
