Traveling through Naruto with Heroes of Might and Magic.

Although he managed to withstand most of the damage thanks to his Wood Release and Sage Mode defenses, his chest was still churning with blood and qi, and the numbing sensation from Lightning Release was spreading along his arm.

Almost at the same time that Qingwu retreated, Orochimaru's attack arrived.

Forbidden Technique: The Writhing Serpent!

The ground suddenly split open, and countless enormous pythons made of a mixture of soil, ice, snow, and chakra burst forth from the earth.

They have no fixed form, twisting and intertwining, biting at Qingwu from all sorts of bizarre angles, spewing neurotoxins from their mouths.

boom--!!

The unicorn that remained by his side stomped its hooves, but its attack had little effect on the python.

These pythons are not physical entities, making them difficult to completely destroy with physical attacks. Moreover, they contain Orochimaru's unique, cold chakra, which can erode both the mind and the body.

The unicorn seemed to be plunged into darkness, spinning in place.

"Now!"

Seeing an opportunity, Raikage naturally wouldn't miss it. He forcefully shook off the two entangled unicorns and tried to attack Qingwu. However, he was unexpectedly blinded again, which made him yell in anger.

Qingwu, who had recovered under the slug's treatment, was in mid-air, about to be engulfed by the evil snake.

"Sage Art: Wood Release: Descent of the Tree World!"

Combining the roots of the seventy-odd withered tree guardians, countless enormous trees, entwined with emerald green natural energy, broke through the ice layer and grew wildly, centered on him.

In an instant, a denser, more vibrant forest was formed.

And it spread rapidly toward the Raikage and Orochimaru!

The giant tree's branches were like living pythons, and its roots were like tentacles reaching out from hell, carrying immense natural energy and launching indiscriminate attacks!

Orochimaru's Evil Snake Ninjutsu was overwhelmed.

As the battle raged, Qingwu realized that both the Fiery Demon Wall and the Meteor Shower were effective against slow-moving targets.

The Raikage's speed and Orochimaru's soft body make it difficult to hit them head-on.

Instead of wasting your ultimate skill, it's better to use a control skill. If you can bind these two, the enhanced unicorn might actually be able to kill them.

"Wood Release?! And it's Sage Art: Wood Release!"

Orochimaru's pupils shrank sharply, and he almost broke the hand seals he was forming.

The legendary ninjutsu appeared; he hadn't expected that Qingwu's "Wood Release" had reached such a level.

Although its range and power were far less than the original, the vibrant and oppressive natural energy still made him feel threatened.

"Troublesome!" Raikage also found it troublesome; these Sage Art Wood Release techniques were much more difficult to deal with than the wooden roots of the previous withered wood guards.

He had to swing his fists and keep smashing the tangled branches and roots.

They were temporarily forced to retreat.

However, Orochimaru demonstrated the combat experience befitting one of the "Three Legendary Sannin" at this moment.

His body twisted as if boneless, narrowly avoiding the entanglement of several giant trees, and the lengthy hand seals were finally completed.

"Secret Technique: Four Black Serpents Formation!"

Three clones appeared around, and then the main body and the three clones opened up a purple transparent cuboid barrier in the four directions of east, south, west and north respectively.

The barrier enveloped Qingwu, the Immortal Forest, and most of the troops! Unquenchable purple flames burned on the barrier wall, emitting scorching heat and sealing fluctuations.

Barrier-type ninjutsu is extremely powerful, but it usually requires several powerful ninjas to work together to activate it.

I never expected Orochimaru to have mastered such a secret technique.

The Raikage abandoned his underestimation; even he wouldn't be able to break through the barrier so easily.

Faced with the barrier, a fierce glint flashed in Qingwu's eyes, knowing that he could no longer hold back.

His mind raced, and Shisui, who had been hiding nearby and waiting for an opportunity, received the order.

"Now, Mongoose!"

"Understood!" Shisui's voice came from the edge of the battlefield.

After Tianzang and Hongdou were taken away by Yin Feima, he was left behind to look for an opportunity to fight.

At this moment, Qingwu had attracted the attention of both the Raikage and Orochimaru, and he finally made his move!

Shisui knew the significance of being left behind. Tenzo and Anko couldn't participate in battles of this level, but he could.

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

With his chakra fully unleashed, Shisui spewed out five thick dragon-head flames from his mouth.

The flames had a tracking ability, targeting Orochimaru and his three clones.

Break the barrier first!

Shisui's combat awareness is extremely clear!

……

Chapter 210 Breaking the Barrier, Injuring the Raikage

"Sage Art: Wood Release: Vajra Summoning Wood!"

The massive amount of woody roots intertwined with each other, forming a giant tree that was dark in color, as thick as a beam, and with an extremely sharp tip.

The giant tree, like an arrow fired from a siege crossbow, crashed into a corner of the barrier with a piercing sonic boom and immense natural energy!

However, Qingwu saw Shisui attacking Orochimaru and took the initiative to break the barrier first.

This move no longer focuses on range, but rather on ultimate penetrating power!

boom--!!

The giant tree collided violently with the purple barrier, unleashing a deafening roar.

The barrier wall trembled violently, the purple flames flickered wildly, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared at the point of impact, but it did not shatter immediately!

Orochimaru's barrier is incredibly strong!

“Heh… It’s no use, Qingwu-kun.” Outside the barrier, one of Orochimaru’s clones chuckled hoarsely, his hands maintaining the hand seals. “This barrier is specifically designed to weaken energy intensity.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the cracks in the barrier were indeed quickly repaired.

Orochimaru didn't even glance at the approaching fire dragon; he knew... someone would shield him.

call out!

Almost at the same time that Qingwu attacked the barrier, Raikage also moved!

He transformed into a bolt of lightning, piercing through the air as he shattered the two great fire dragons, before unleashing a rare ranged ninjutsu with hand seals.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Dragon Technique!"

sizzle-

The ferocious Thunder Dragon collided with the remaining three Powerful Dragons, resulting in a violent explosion that obscured the view of a large area.

Shisui's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately used the position swap technique from the Illusionary Body Flicker Technique.

Sure enough, Raikage appeared where he had just stood, "Hell Thrust - Four-Handed Dagger!"

A large amount of lightning concentrated on his four fingers, instantly killing Shisui's several phantom clones.

"Mongoose, ignore him! Go and use genjutsu to deal with Orochimaru."

As Qingwu shouted, he waved his hand, and the silver pegasus that had been recalled earlier reappeared outside the barrier.

The barrier could block his body, but it could not cut off the "system's" troop summoning.

"what?!"

Orochimaru's tone was filled with astonishment.

"Lord Qingwu!"

The slug also obeyed the order and cooperated with the silver Pegasus to help Shisui temporarily get rid of the Raikage's entanglement.

sizzle-

Raikage continued his attack, instantly killing several silver Pegasus.

Qingwu disregarded his heartache and summoned hundreds of dwarf warriors to surround Lei Ying.

However, even if the troops are enhanced by magic, they are still just basic troops. When the energy intensity exceeds the dwarves' tolerance limit, even if most of the damage is reduced, they will still be killed instantly.

Lei Ying charged out from among the soldiers like a wave cutting through the water.

However, due to this delay, Shisui's main body had already approached one of Orochimaru's clones.

"Wow... The genius boy from the Uchiha clan, his Sharingan's insight is truly enviable."

Orochimaru's clone looked at Shisui rushing towards him with a hint of interest in his golden snake eyes, but mostly with coldness.

He knew Shisui's tactics—simply destroying one of his clones would disrupt the barrier's operation.

but……

The clone released the hand seals and flicked its sleeve, unleashing the "Hidden Shadow Serpent Hands!"

Dozens of venomous snakes shot at Zhishui, blocking his path.

Orochimaru was confident that the barrier was maintained by four points; losing one point would weaken its power, but it wouldn't collapse immediately.

He believed that even with a slight delay, the "henchman" Raikage would not disappoint him.

Shisui's eyes were calm, but his three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly, allowing him to clearly see the snake's trajectory.

He did not force his way through, but instead moved like a ghost through the gaps between the venomous snakes, his speed so great that he left afterimages in his wake.

"Uchiha Style: Sword Leap Flame!"

The instant he approached the swarm of venomous snakes, Shisui suddenly accelerated, transforming into a streak of light burning with chakra flames. His short sword flashed in a deadly arc, instantly clearing away a swathe of snakes in his path.

With undiminished momentum, it slashed at the Orochimaru clone who had loosened his hand seals!

"Such speed!" Orochimaru's clone was slightly surprised, not expecting that this young Uchiha's Body Flicker Technique was so advanced.

He quickly retreated while forming hand seals, chanting, "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"
