As Ye Chen was gathering a Big Ball Rasengan, his vision suddenly went black.
Then a pair of scarlet eyes appeared in the darkness.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
A giant snake hundreds of meters tall suddenly lunged at Ye Chen.
Its triangular head, as large as a room, opened its bloody maw, baring sharp fangs as it tried to suck Ye Chen in.

Orochimaru cried out in shock.
He had already "overestimated" Ye Chen's strength by several levels.
Yet Ye Chen's various reactions were clearly far beyond even
