The third meteorite broke through the clouds and continued its impact on the dark green figure.
Using " Tengai Shinsei " to delay, Orochimaru once again turned the tide. With a third meteorite and a ground spike, Orochimaru caught in a pincer attack, revealing his disadvantage.
"Good!" Uchiha Itachi exclaimed in praise.
" Orochimaru, let's see how you handle this!" Namikaze Minato grinned.
"Wow, that's strong! I thought Uncle Nawaki was going to lose."
"What amazing Ninjutsu! You can sense the sheer size of the meteorite from this far away."
"Such precise timing, changing the situation in an instant, truly worthy of Lord Nawaki," Kakashi remarked, noting other aspects as well.
The golden spear burst forth with light, quickly piercing the purple-green figure. There was no tremendous force as expected, nor did it feel like it had struck a solid object.
Li Yu's armored Wood Man, wielding a golden spear, charged through the purple-green figures and pierced directly into the giant meteorite.
"Boom!"
The meteorite broke directly into small stones, which fell like raindrops.
"What's going on? It clearly pierced me, but there's no physical form."
Looking back, the dark green figure seemed like an illusion, showing no fluctuation of Chakra.
"Not good"
In his haste, Li Yu seemed to sense something, turned around and blocked, his entire body slamming diagonally to the ground.
"This is the ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan: Position Swap."
Orochimaru once used this technique to escape during the Chunin Ninja Exams. He was controlled by Li Yu 'Chibaku Tensei and used it to switch positions, leaving a phantom image behind as he left the battlefield.
As mentioned at the time, this is a skill similar to Zed's W in League of Legends.
"The phantom can still attack!"
"Boom!"
Li Yu slammed the Wood Man he was controlling into the ground, creating a deep crater, before he could even catch his breath and get up.
Not only did Wood Man encased in heavy purple-green armor appear in the sky, but eight purple Tomoe also appeared above their heads.
He swung his twin swords, pointing them at Li Yu, who was encased in yellow armor, in the crater in the ground.
" Yasaka Magatama "
"Boom!"
A mushroom cloud erupted from the spot, its light dazzling, and several nearby mountain peaks collapsed under the impact.
Before the Kakkō had even died down, a figure gleaming with golden light, with enormous wings and nine trailing flames behind it, thrust its spear straight at the purplish-green figure.
"It was hit by my Yasaka Magatama, yet it had absolutely no effect on me."
What's behind that?
" Lord Orochimaru has nine tails."
Just as the Yasaka Magatama was about to strike, Namikaze Minato placed his hand on Li Yu's shoulder and lent Li Yu the Nine-Tails 'Chakra.
With the support of the Nine-Tails' immense Chakra, the damaged yellow armor on his body quickly healed and recovered, nine Chakra tails sprouted from his back, and the yellow light on his entire body turned into a dazzling gold.
" Orochimaru, take this! A flash of cold light will arrive first, then..."
The Wood Dragon coiled around Wood Man wooden figure, from its shoulders to its arms, spiraling and swirling around the golden spear as it charged in, its entire body enveloped in a dazzling golden glow.
"The spear moves like a dragon"
Orochimaru changed drastically upon seeing the overwhelming force of the attack. A sinister glint flashed in his eyes as he grabbed Deidara by the neck.
Orochimaru, you...
Before Deidara could finish speaking, Orochimaru swung his arm, flinging Deidara toward the golden Wood Dragon.
" Deidara, now display your final explosive art!"
Orochimaru forcibly Hand Seals and controlled the Rinnegan, Rinnegan to spin rapidly.
Under dual control, Deidara, in mid-air, glared resentfully at Orochimaru, yet did exactly what Orochimaru wanted to see.
Deidara stuffed the remaining clay into his chest and mouth, and his entire body immediately turned black and withered, with all his Chakra concentrated in his chest.
" Deidara, it's time to show your worth, your ultimate art," Orochimaru said with a smug smile.
Deidara, on the other hand, was an art form forcibly manipulated by others, and he was extremely resentful of this.
"Boom!"
A massive white light exploded in the air, engulfing the golden Wood Dragon. The explosion, shaped like Patrick Star, shattered the clouds in the sky.
Orochimaru controlled the green and purple Wood Man figure, his hands blocking in front of his chest, while his purple wings flapped rapidly as he rose into the sky.
Li Yu's deadly spear strike was interrupted, and the golden Wood Dragon, unable to control its attack, had to change its move in mid-air, blocking the spear in front of its chest.
The immense impact blasted the golden Nine-Tails Wood Man from the sky, its feet barely touching the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.
Patrick Star's explosion continued to flash in white light, obstructing the view of both sides.
The Konoha team and the Team Hebi were watching from a distance, along with two Akatsuki members, Black Zetsu had just eaten dirt, and villagers from nearby villages.
Everyone was shocked; the intense aerial battle was suddenly interrupted by a white explosion, jolting them awake.
Many villagers knelt down to worship the true god, creating a tremendous celestial phenomenon, like the power to clear away the clouds and reveal the sun.
"Wow, that's really strong!"
"That's Akatsuki Chakra!"
"Such an intense white light!"
"What astonishing power!"
"Nine tails, that's... that's the Nine-Tails Chakra, and Dad's here too?"
"So, Minato-sensei, you..." Kakashi immediately pulled off his blindfold and looked at Namikaze Minato beside him.
"Hehe, I'm just Shadow Clone," Namikaze Minato said with a smile, awkwardly scratching the back of his head.
"Hey Dad, how could you do this?" Naruto tossed his head and pouted, looking like he didn't want to talk to you.
The Masked Man was immediately switched to Obito's control. His eyes and movements were no longer strange or out of control, but instead showed a calm and composed demeanor.
Are Orochimaru and Senju Nawaki both this strong?
Obito used to think he understood the current strength of the Shinobi World and that he was strong enough to challenge the Five Great Nations. But after witnessing the battle between the two sides, he realized that his strength was nothing special.
With his Obito is no match for either of them, which makes him grateful that on the night of the massacre of his clan, when he saw Li Yu arrive, he decisively turned and left.
Obito's figure vanished from the spot as the entire space distorted.
Patrick Star exploded in the air and disappeared in a white light. Wood Man Orochimaru, landed on the ground.
At this moment, the Wood Man in its heavy purple-green armor underwent another change, with huge white snake heads appearing on its head, shoulders, and waist.
" The Eight Branches Technique "
Orochimaru grew scales on his feet and fixed himself on top of the Wood Man's head, channeling his power into Susanoo and the Wood Man, resulting in a new transformation.
" White Phosphorus Great Snake - Appears"
Orochimaru's side: Wood Release: Wood Human Technique + Dark Green Susanoo Technique + Purple Complete Body Susanoo Technique + Eight Branches Technique
Orochimaru pulled a purple longbow from behind his back, drew the bowstring taut, held a purple-green arrow, and aimed at the enemy.
The Wood Dragon on the Wood Man seemed ready to spring into action, swiftly slithering and coiling around the bow and arrow, striking a pose of poised readiness.
"Oh no! Orochimaru is about to use his ultimate move! Nawaki, be careful!"
" Orochimaru learned so quickly, he even used the Wood Dragon."
"Leave the Wood Dragon to me!" Namikaze Minato unleashed his Chakra.
"I'll take that arrow," Uchiha Itachi finally spoke after a long silence.
Itachi had already seen the White Phosphorus Great Snake unleash its ultimate technique, and he couldn't contain his excitement.
