The Battle on the East Coast, Part Six

After being freed from its restraints, Manda rampaged through the Hidden Mist fleet, isolating Orochimaru and the woman using Ice Release Ninjutsu, preventing others from providing support to those inside.

The battle between Orochimaru and the Ice Release woman has reached a fever pitch, with Orochimaru unleashing various Wind Style and the woman employing various Water Style and Ice Release.

"Wow!"

Orochimaru opened his mouth, and a gleaming sword shot towards the woman using Ice Release.

The Ice Release artist was pierced by the sword and turned into a puddle of water.

Orochimaru's legs transformed into snake limbs, allowing him to move swiftly across the sea. Seeing that his sword had failed to achieve its purpose, Orochimaru began swimming on the surface, searching for the woman's whereabouts.

A surge of water rose from the sea in Orochimaru's direction of travel, transforming into the form of an Ice Release woman wielding an ice sword and slashing at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru's serpentine limbs were incredibly agile. He made a quick dodge to the right and leaped into the water. The Ice Release woman's attack failed, so she threw her ice sword in the direction Orochimaru had leaped into. The ice sword swam and twisted in the seawater with great agility, while the woman Hand Seals at the same time.

Pfft

A sword suddenly flew out from behind the woman and pierced her chest. Orochimaru emerged from the water, revealing an evil smile. His snake form transformed into legs, and he walked towards the woman.

"My Ice Armor? How is that possible?"

Blood trickled from the corner of the Ice Release woman's mouth, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

"My Kusanagi Sword is forged from the hardest material in the world; it is indestructible and can break through anything. How could your Ice Release armor possibly defend against such a divine weapon?"

Orochimaru licked his lips, his eyes filled with a twisted, almost artistic gaze as he looked at the woman.

After her heart was pierced by a bullet, the Ice Release woman stared wide-eyed, seemingly filled with resentment.

At the same time, as the Ice Release woman's life came to an end, her body gradually lost its ability to maintain Chakra and slowly sank towards the seabed.

"Summoning Technique!"

Orochimaru summoned a white snake that was over thirty meters long and nearly three meters wide.

"Sky Blade!"

Orochimaru beckoned with his finger, and the Kusanagi Sword was slowly drawn from the Ice Release woman's body. Orochimaru's Ninjutsu, the Sky Blade, allows him to manipulate weapons and ninja tools remotely, a specialty of his for Orochimaru attacks and killings. After Orochimaru used the Sky Blade to recall the sword, he...

The white snake slithered into the water, swallowed the woman whole, and then vanished in a puff of smoke.

Even during the great battle, Orochimaru did not let go of any Kekkei Genkai or materials that could be researched.

Meanwhile, after being defeated by Naraku, Karatachi Yagura, dived into the water to look for an opportunity.

Seeing his guards engage Naraku, Yagura felt slightly relieved. He then swam underwater for several kilometers, disappearing from one side of the battlefield to the other.

Karatachi Yagura in the sea, could not hear the sound of the water's surface, but he could see the situation on the field, noticing that many of the Hidden Mist seemed to be on the verge of collapse. Yagura made a decision and slowly Hand Seals in the water.

Hand Seals underwater to assist in performing Ninjutsu is somewhat troublesome, but Karatachi Yagura still managed to complete the Ninjutsu with great effort.

"Water Style: Tidal Overturn Technique!"

After Mizukage Karatachi Yagura finished his Ninjutsu, the sea surface near Yagura began to swirl like Uzumaki. The whirlpool grew faster and faster, expanding to several kilometers in area, and its speed and range continued to increase.

"What happened?"

"Is it a tsunami?!"

"The Hidden Mist is skilled in Water Style; this must be Hidden Mist Ninjutsu!"

"Is this Water Style ninjutsu that a human could possibly perform...?"

The Konoha Ninja, caught in the heat of battle, sensed something was wrong and began asking each other questions, seemingly seeking some comfort.

Some Konoha Ninja, seeing the waves on the water growing wider, realized it was an ultimate Ninjutsu and felt fear.

The Kirigakure Ninja noticed the tremors on the water's surface and realized it was Water Style ninjutsu of ultimate level. They stopped fighting and retreated to prepare to respond to the Water Release Ninjutsu.

The Hidden Mist is skilled in Water Style ninjutsu. Most Kirigakure Ninja can use Water Style to infiltrate or hide within Water Style, then ambush and kill enemies in the water, or drag them into the water to drown them.

Konoha Ninja have learned and are familiar with Ninjutsu of all elements, and there are quite a few ninjas in Konoha who are skilled in Water Style ninjutsu, but the proportion is not as high as in Hidden Mist.

If 70% of the Hidden Mist's ninjas are skilled in Water Style and underwater combat, then at most 20% of the Konoha 'Konoha Ninja.

The Uzumaki on the sea surface grew increasingly turbulent, and the surging sea level began to rise, forming Water Dragon. The distant areas were also affected, and the ninjas could no longer easily attach their Chakra to the water's surface, with many falling into the water.

Gradually, more and more Konoha Ninja and Kirigakure Ninja were drawn into the Water Dragon, Uzumaki faster and faster, affecting an area of several kilometers.

It can be said that almost all the Konoha Ninja and Kirigakure Ninja involved in the battle were caught in it. The Uzumaki spun faster and faster, surging out of the water more quickly, and the Water Dragon grew larger and higher!

After many Kirigakure Ninja adapted to the swirling water, they hunted down Konoha Ninja who were not used to it. For a time, the Konoha Ninja were at a disadvantage, and their casualties increased dramatically.

Many Konoha Ninja skilled in Water Style rescued their teammates in the water and fought fiercely against Hidden Mist. This environment greatly excited Manda, who took advantage of the chaos in the sea to devour everything in sight.

Orochimaru is incredibly powerful, and his Ninjutsu is unpredictable. Although Manda is arrogant and unruly, he doesn't dare to be too overbearing. He mostly devours the Kirigakure Ninja, but he doesn't hesitate to eat the Manda Konoha Ninja that fall into his mouth.

Naraku led his men in pursuit of Suikazan Fuguki for a long distance. Naraku manipulated Water Style to create Uzumaki and water Flood Dragon, attacking Suikazan Fuguki underwater.

Like a mudfish, this Suikazan Fuguki is extremely adept at escaping. However, Suikazan Fuguki has already been surrounded by Naraku's team Water Release Ninjutsu and is about to be captured.

Suikazan Fuguki has narrowly escaped death several times due to Naraku's Water Release Ninjutsu, Naraku is determined to capture him to vent his anger.

Suddenly, he noticed that the sea was turbulent and the current was reversed. Naraku realized that it was a ninja with abundant Chakra who had used the seawater to his advantage and unleashed a powerful Water Style ninjutsu.

The Uzumaki was rapidly expanding towards Naraku's location. Naraku gazed at the distant seascape, especially at the enormous Water Dragon, and realized something was amiss.

"Keep catching this loach!"

Naraku gave instructions to his guards, then abandoned Suikazan Fuguki and leaped across the sea, heading back.

Soon, Naraku near the Water Dragon. The sea surface was like someone shaking a glass of water; it was impossible to stand upright in the seawater. Naraku into the air, Hand Seals, and shouted:

"Storm Release Secret Technique: Storm Ghost Dragon!"

Naraku finished speaking, dark clouds appeared within hundreds of meters of him.

At the same time, Naraku his mouth wide, and Chakra of the ninjas on the sea surface and in the water surged into Naraku's mouth, where Naraku swallowed them.

As the Chakra was absorbed, the dark clouds of the Storm Ghost Dragon gradually expanded in size, and at the same time, the sky began to fill with dark clouds, with lightning and thunder.

The Water Style ninjutsu used by Crystal Karatachi Yagura still relied on Chakra. After the Chakra rapidly dissipated, Karatachi Yagura immediately noticed the abnormality.

At the same time, because Naraku absorbed Ninjutsu and Chakra, the rotation of the Uzumaki on the sea surface began to slow down, and the rising sea level began to slowly recede.

Naraku up and used Ninjutsu to stand on the sea surface, and in just a short while, he changed the rampant Water Release Ninjutsu.

However, the dark clouds expanded rapidly, soon covering the entire sea surface, and continued to expand.

Naraku didn't know how much Chakra he had absorbed, only that he had injected a lot of Chakra into the Storm Ghost Dragon's Secret Technique.

The sky had darkened, and lightning flashed and thunder roared. The clouds on the ground were somewhat thin, but Naraku had no idea how many kilometers they stretched across.

Naraku dared not inject any more Chakra into the Storm Ghost Dragon, and he also stopped absorbing Chakra and Ninjutsu.

After the Water Release Ninjutsu was broken, the Konoha Ninja escaped death. At this moment, the ninjas in the field escaped from the Water Dragon, and the spinning inside the Water Dragon made them extremely dizzy.

But now, looking at the lightning and thunder in the dark sky and the dark clouds covering the sea, with their vision so thin, the ninjas looked around and asked questions.

What's going on?

Is this the end of the world?

Is the world about to end?
