Chapter 64: Dancing Petals, Blooming Blood
Buzz!
The huge sphere of flowers burst open.
Yuichi stood there unscathed, looking coldly at Orochimaru, who had fallen to the ground in the distance with resignation in his eyes.
"Is Orochimaru alright?"
"What are you doing? Why attack from close quarters... You know that the closer you get to those terrifying blade fragments, the more dangerous it is, yet you still do such a stupid thing!"
Behind him, Jiraiya couldn't understand what Orochimaru was doing. It was almost madness.
Orochimaru's face grew gloomier at Jiraiya's words. He opened his mouth wide. A pair of hands appeared from Orochimaru's throat, pulling a body out.
Orochimaru-Style Body Replacement Technique.
This allowed Orochimaru to fully heal from the injuries he received earlier—again. It was just like a snake shedding its skin. Although this move was powerful, it made many people in the auditorium, and those watching from the Ninja World, feel a bit disgusted. Drilling out of one's own mouth—this technique was too disgusting.
The wet, slime-covered Orochimaru grabbed the Kusanagi Sword lying on the ground and stared at Yuichi.
Suddenly, Orochimaru raised his hand and threw the Kusanagi Sword at Yuichi.
Clang!
Senbonzakura easily blocked the incoming Kusanagi Sword, flicking it aside.
"Wind Style... Great Breakthrough!"
Boom!
The storm hit Yuichi again. Under the strong wind, Senbonzakura, which was forming ring after ring of barriers around Yuichi, was disrupted. The first barrier was blown away, then the second and third were broken by the Wind Style. Only a few gaps appeared in the final barrier.
The Senbonzakura that was blown away floated back almost instantly, surrounding Yuichi and defending him tightly again. It didn't help at all.
"Does this guy want to blow these blades away with wind?"
"Is he an idiot? Even if you blow them away, they float back in the next second! It's useless!"
The ninjas couldn't understand Orochimaru's inexplicable behavior, thinking that he was wasting Chakra. Even Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't understand what his most proud disciple was doing.
Against an ability that integrated offense and defense, only Chakra unleashed through powerful Ninjutsu could defeat the opponent in one fell swoop. He and Jiraiya could jointly release a Compound Ninjutsu; the power of such a technique would definitely be enough to break Yuichi's defense.
But Orochimaru was wasting his Chakra meaninglessly, which was completely abnormal compared to the Orochimaru of the past.
Hiruzen: "What happened to this Orochimaru?"
Tsunade, who had returned to Konoha, was also puzzled. "That guy would never do such a meaningless attack. Even if it was to delay time, he shouldn't choose this way."
Yuichi looked at Orochimaru. Have I been seen through? Did he see through Senbonzakura's weakness so quickly?
Orochimaru! As expected of Uncle Snake!
Yuichi locked eyes on Orochimaru. If that was the case, Orochimaru needed to be dealt with first!
Boom!
The Senbonzakura torrent strangled toward Orochimaru quickly. Orochimaru, surrounded by Senbonzakura, unleashed a swarm of snakes to resist but was only able to stall for time. He was too close to Yuichi now. In the face of Senbonzakura's strangulation, it was impossible to escape unscathed!
A stream of blood splattered!
In the face of Yuichi's crazy attack, Orochimaru became scarred again after just a few breaths. His feet, hands, and chest were torn open with deep, bone-exposing wounds.
Orochimaru was in a wretched state. The people in the World of Pirates were extremely excited.
"This guy is going to be killed too! Daring to actively approach Yuichi, he is looking for death!"
"Get rid of him! Kill this guy, and there will be only one person left."
"So what about one-on-three? Marine Admiral candidate Yuichi's strength cannot be dealt with by numbers!"
Those shouting these words were mostly pirates. They had forgotten how they taunted the Marines just seconds ago. Yuichi's strength had completely changed their attitude.
Akainu also got excited.
Aokiji, as the person who had fought Orochimaru, commented, "In the hands of Yuichi, I didn't expect this guy to be beaten so badly. It seems that I have been surpassed by Yuichi without knowing it!"
Hearing Aokiji's emotion, Kizaru smiled wretchedly as always. "What a terrifying ability! This ability is even scarier than a Devil Fruit!"
Senbonzakura pursued Orochimaru, turning him into a bloody mess.
But such a picture had a strange beauty. The petals flying all over the sky brought a splash of blood every time they danced. Countless cherry blossoms gathered under the blood, and the man standing in the sea of flowers was waving his hands as if conducting a beautiful symphony.
It was obviously a slaughter, but at this moment, one couldn't feel the malice. The blood flowers blooming under the flying cherry blossoms on the light curtain were extremely elegant.
Nico Robin, currently in Alabasta, watched the scene of flying petals.
"Interesting... man..." Perhaps because her ability was somewhat similar to Yuichi's, Robin was very interested in this Marine.
Boom! Boom!
Although Orochimaru was embarrassed, he had already opened a distance of ten meters. Although Senbonzakura's speed did not change at this distance, his attack speed seemed to be a little slower as the range stretched.
This small difference allowed Orochimaru to seize the opportunity and suddenly release an Earth Style Ninjutsu! He prepared to fend off Yuichi's attack with this, hoping to gain distance and escape.
When the mud wall rose, it was just enough to block a Senbonzakura torrent coming head-on.
There was a cold light in Yuichi's eyes. "The same trick... do you think that will stop me a second time?
Suddenly, hundreds of blade fragments appeared at the front and hit the wall of the earth formation fiercely.
Bang!
The earth wall cracked. Orochimaru, hiding behind it, didn't expect the wall to be broken in an instant.
It was just a small hole.
But the Senbonzakura coming through the broken hole in the next second—although not as numerous as the previous torrent—could directly point to Orochimaru's heart.
It pierced through in an instant!
The blood flower bloomed within Senbonzakura, and Orochimaru's face became extremely pale.
