Chapter 135 Orochimaru: The Power of Dragon Bones Is Comparable to that of Might Guy!
"The Third Mizukage's guess about Uchiha Obito's situation was completely wrong, but what he said does make sense."
"I'll just continue to build the ninja tools normally."
"Uchiha Obito will not lower his guard against me just because I stop."
"Neither does Konoha."
"On the contrary, the more Zanpakutō I build and the more members of the Shinigami Squad I have, the stronger my "power" becomes."
"Furthermore, after acquiring Tao Xianren's Garden Box, my ability to protect myself has actually been greatly improved."
Osamu Uehara returned to his room.
Made some plans.
"First, complete the development of the technique of polishing the immortal magic."
"After that, by recruiting blacksmiths and members of the escort team, we can gain a wave of reputation to the point where we can draw a lottery."
"When I have excellent forging skills, with the addition of Forging Island and God's Hand, I will probably be able to break through to proficiency."
"In that case, the effect of gaining reputation in front of the blacksmith will be better."
"This is the only way to gain reputation this time."
"After all, it is almost impossible for Peach Fairy's Court Box to increase my reputation."
"At least that will be the case for a short time."
Osamu Uehara didn't want others to know about the power of Momo Sennin's Garden Box.
"Unless there are intruders who can sneak into Forge Island."
After Uehara Osamu completed the production of Momo Sento's Garden Box, he put all his energy into the study of the art of immortal magic polishing, and his life became a two-point and one-line affair.
"Natural energy gathers here."
"It looks like random movement."
"But actually, it's like a blob of liquid."
"It's going to be affected by gravity to a certain extent."
"Air movement, that will also have an impact on that."
"It's like a ball of water."
“I can’t control these natural energies, but can I channel them?”
Water cannot be manipulated by anyone other than water ninjas.
But water can also be controlled.
For example, put water in a container.
For example, given a water pipe, let water flow along the pipe.
"Peach Immortal's magic cannot absorb the natural energy of this world, but there is no problem in guiding it."
After Osamu Uehara found the idea, he immediately tried it.
“Directing natural energy into a state of water flow.”
"And I am polishing the ninja sword in the water-like natural energy."
Osamu Uehara took out a ninja sword and placed it on the polishing workbench.
"start!"
There was a sound of sharpening a knife.
Osamu Uehara picked up the ninja sword and looked at it, his eyes lit up.
"Sure enough, it's just as I expected."
"This kind of polishing effect is much better than ordinary polishing."
"During the polishing process, natural energy not only makes the ninja sword smoother and sharper, but also penetrates part of it."
"This proves that my thinking is correct."
"If we continue like this, we will definitely be able to successfully study the art of polishing immortal magic!"
…
…
Just when Osamu Uehara was busy studying the art of forging.
The country of soup.
Orochimaru finally arrived at the location where Taketori Neko might be.
A small town.
The Country of Yu does not have its own ninja village.
It was there a long time ago, but not anymore.
The main problem is that the Daimyo of Yuno Country has figured it out.
Based on our own situation, basically no big country will be interested in us.
Apart from the hot springs, there are almost no other resources worthy of others' attention.
Most of the wars were caused by ninja villages.
Then just ban the ninja village.
The result was exactly what the name of Yuno Country had expected.
After the ninja village disappeared, the country of Tang fell into peace.
Like the Iron Kingdom, it became a neutral country.
But the difference is that the Iron Kingdom relies on its own strength and ninja industry.
As for the Kingdom of Tang, it relies on showing off.
"I don't have ninjas, so you can't beat my ninjas."
Tang Zhiguo relied on this move to achieve peace.
However, this does not mean that there are no problems within Tang Country.
The nobles were tyrannical, officials were corrupt, and cults were proliferating.
The reason why Taketori Neko chose the Country of Yu.
One is that it is relatively close to the Kingdom of Water. If anything happens to Kirigakure Village, he can provide timely support.
Another thing is that after the Bamboo Cat has awakened the blood successor limit of the corpse bone vein, the Bamboo Cat will feel pain when using this blood successor limit.
Soaking in the hot springs of Yuno Kuni can relieve some of the pain.
The heat is steaming.
The entire body of the Bamboo Tori Cat was soaked in the hot spring water, with only one head exposed.
Taketori Neko analyzed the recently obtained information.
"The disappearance of the third Mizukage is suspected to be caused by Orochimaru of Konoha."
"Yakura succeeds the fourth Mizukage."
This news made Taketori Neko feel a little bad.
At the beginning, Taketori Neko only had the village in his heart and was absolutely loyal to the Third Mizukage. No matter what the order was, Taketori Neko would definitely execute it as long as the order was given.
But now, the concept of bamboo cats has changed.
But for the Third Mizukage, Taketori Neko was still grateful.
The suggestion was made by Osamu Uehara.
Some members of the Taketori clan were retained to prevent the Taketori clan from being exterminated.
But, the Third Mizukage must agree.
The Taketori Cat remembers the Third Mizukage's feelings.
In addition, now that Yagura is in power, the Taketori Cat, like Kaguya Mamizu, is worried about Yagura's attitude towards the Kaguya clan.
"Konoha... Orochimaru..."
The Taketori Cat blamed all the bad emotions on Orochimaru.
At this moment.
A figure walked in.
"The Taketori Cat."
After seeing the Taketori Cat and confirming the identity of the Taketori Cat, Orochimaru couldn't help but feel excited.
Even though Orochimaru is already an old ninja with a lot of experience.
However, the fact that he was defeated by Yagura and others made Orochimaru lose face in almost the entire ninja world.
And Orochimaru knew very well that if he didn't achieve anything that could overturn this matter, the probability of succeeding the Hokage would be much lower than that of Namikaze Minato.
This is true for all people in Konoha.
One failure can negate all his previous achievements.
The Taketori Cat, a rebel ninja from the Hidden Mist Village.
Regardless of whether the Taketori Cat really betrayed the Hidden Mist Village.
There are hidden reasons for the extermination of the Taketori clan.
The Taketori Cat may just be the scapegoat on the surface.
However, the dragon bone in the Taketori Cat's hand is genuine.
This is a Zanpakuto.
Orochimaru does not expect the Taketori Cat to cooperate with him. If he does not cooperate, he will kill the Taketori Cat and take the dragon bone.
After getting the Zanpakuto for research, he will not be so passive when facing the Zanpakuto again in the future.
Instead, he can find a way to deal with it.
At the same time, he can also obtain information about the blacksmiths of the Hidden Mist Village from the Taketori Cat.
"Orochimaru?"
The Taketori Cat was stunned when he saw the person walking in.
Then, his eyes narrowed slightly.
There was a moment of hesitation in the Taketori Cat's heart.
The first time, the Taketori Cat wanted to take action.
The matter of the Third Mizukage made the Taketori Cat hate Konoha and Orochimaru to the extreme.
But the Taketori Cat was worried that if he attacked Orochimaru, Orochimaru would doubt the truth of the genocide of the Taketori clan.
But soon, the Taketori Cat realized that he was overthinking.
He was the ruthless criminal who genocide his own ninja clan.
Do I need a reason to attack?
I don't need a reason at all.
I am a madman.
Whatever I do, it is acceptable, right?
With this thought, the Taketori Cat did not hesitate.
"Dragon bone!"
Accompanied by a dull sound, the Taketori Cat jumped out of the hot spring.
In an instant, it was in front of Orochimaru.
The dragon bone in his hand was raised high and chopped at Orochimaru.
Orochimaru's pupils shrank.
"What?"
He had just walked in and hadn't finished speaking, and the other party attacked directly?
The Taketori Cat's behavior was beyond Orochimaru's expectations.
Orochimaru thought that no matter whether it was an enemy or a friend, he would always have to say a few words first.
Is this the "rule of the trade" agreed upon by the ninja world?
However, the Taketori Cat does not play by the rules.
"Snake hand!"
A snake appeared and wrapped around Orochimaru's arm, like an arm guard.
The dragon bone of the Taketori Cat fell.
Orochimaru's snake screamed, but did not die. Instead, it climbed up along the dragon bone and bit the Taketori Cat's arm.
"Puff!"
Just when the snake was about to bite the Taketori Cat.
A white bone pierced out from the Taketori Cat's arm.
In one stroke, it pierced the snake.
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Is this your Zanpakuto ability?"
"No, that's not right. This should be the corpse bone bloodline limit of your Taketori clan."
"I heard that no one has awakened this bloodline limit for a long time."
"You killed so many people from the Taketori clan with this?"
"Where is the Zanpakuto?"
The performance of the dragon bone made Orochimaru not think that this was a Zanpakuto.
Orochimaru didn't think the ordinary chop was anything special.
"So, that guess is true?"
"The extermination of the Taketori clan was done by the Hidden Mist Village?"
"The dragon bone and the like are all a cover."
"The Taketori cat didn't even bring out his Zanpakuto?"
Orochimaru couldn't help but guess like this.
The first attack of the dragon bone gave Orochimaru a feeling that it was too ordinary.
Kiri Ichimonji, Blue Rose Sword, Water Dragon Possession, all of which were more than that.
But then, the second attack of the Taketori cat fell.
This time, Orochimaru used the same method to resist.
But the effect was completely different.
"Crack!"
The huge force fell.
Not only did Orochimaru's snake break in two.
It also broke the bones in Orochimaru's arm.
Orochimaru's face changed.
"This power is so strong!"
Orochimaru retreated again and again.
However, close combat is what the Bamboo Cat is good at. It has already approached, how could the Bamboo Cat give Orochimaru a chance to distance himself? Orochimaru retreated, and the Bamboo Cat chased.
After a series of attacks, Orochimaru was immediately covered with wounds.
At this time, Orochimaru finally understood.
What the Bamboo Cat held in his hand was the dragon bone, the Zanpakutō.
"Intermittent burst of power."
"Completely doubled power."
"I can't stop this power."
"Stronger than all the physical ninjas in Konoha."
"Unless it's Might Day who has opened the Eight Gates."
"And he has to open six gates. No, six gates may not be enough."
Orochimaru's expression became extremely serious.
With Orochimaru's judgment, he would not make a wrong judgment.
But this does not mean that Taketori Cat is really stronger than Might Day in the six-gate state in terms of physical skills.
The Taketori Cat is good at physical skills.
But relying on the dragon bone, the power of chopping with the dragon bone is extremely outstanding.
This is what Orochimaru compared.
In other aspects of physical skills, Taketori Cat will be relatively weaker.
But in terms of comprehensive strength, Taketori Cat also has the Corpse Bloodline Limit.
Whether it is defense or attack, it is extremely strong.
And Orochimaru, in the case of not being able to summon the Ten Thousand Snakes, and in the case that many snake-style ninjutsu have not yet been developed, his strength has been greatly reduced, and he is faintly restrained by Taketori Cat.
"Hiding Shadow Multi-Snake Hand!"
Several snakes appeared on Orochimaru's arms.
Some are responsible for defense.
Some are responsible for attack.
However, facing these big snakes, the Bamboo Cat grinned.
"Break them for me!"
One knife fell.
Under the huge force, these big snakes were all broken into two pieces.
However, this also bought Orochimaru some time.
"Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!"
More poisonous snakes than before appeared from Orochimaru's mouth.
There were so many of them, so densely packed that at a glance, there were thousands or tens of thousands of them, all swarming towards the Bamboo Cat, like a surging tide, trying to drown the Bamboo Cat.
This time, the Bamboo Cat was restrained.
There were too many poisonous snakes.
"Corpse Vein, Iron Hedgehog!"
A large number of white bones emerged from the Bamboo Cat's body.
Not long, but there were many of them.
Like the tip of a bamboo shoot, it protected the body of the Bamboo Cat firmly, like a set of protective armor.
The poisonous snakes pounced, but they had no way to bite.
The methods used by the two this time were somewhat similar.
In addition to normal abilities, mental pollution attacks were also used. Patients with trypophobia would probably not be able to bear it no matter whether they were facing Orochimaru or Taketori Cat.
"Taketori Cat, I am not here to be your enemy. Can we talk?"
Taketori Cat did not answer.
Orochimaru took a deep breath.
"If you are really a Kirigakure traitor, I, Konoha, can give you a place to stay."
"If you are not a Kirigakure traitor, and you bear such a big crime, are you sure that Kirigakure will cleanse you in the future?"
"Even the Third Mizukage has disappeared. If you are not a Kirigakure traitor, how many people in Kirigakure will remember your true identity?"
"Have you thought about it?"
"People should think about themselves after all."
Orochimaru has made what he thinks is the most sincere persuasion.
As a dignified Sannin, Orochimaru feels that he has lowered his posture enough to this point.
However, Taketori Cat still did not answer Orochimaru.
Instead, the dragon bone in his hand chopped faster.
There were corpses of poisonous snakes on the ground.
The stench of snakes and the smell of blood mixed together.
What Orochimaru said was indeed somewhat reasonable.
However, without the Third Mizukage, the Hidden Mist Village still had Uehara Osamu. Compared with the Third Mizukage, the Taketori Cat trusted Uehara Osamu more, and no matter who became the Mizukage, Uehara Osamu's position could not be shaken.
This gave the Taketori Cat some confidence.
