Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too arrogant

Chapter 215 Tailed Beast Transformation Reappears

"boom--!!!"

The raging torrent of water swept across like a tsunami, instantly engulfing Orochimaru and the giant snake beneath his feet! Hundreds of water dragons collided and tore at each other, generating a tremendous impact that plowed through the surrounding ground, and the surging water vapor shot into the sky, forming a brief downpour over the forest.

To avoid accidental injury, Naruto had already used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer Satsuki and Sakura to the thick branches of a towering tree in the distance that required more than a dozen people to encircle.

"Wow...that's amazing..."

Looking down at the terrain completely transformed by the raging water-style attacks, Sakura murmured in a daze. The scene was far beyond her understanding of the strength of a "genin".

The name of this technique... isn't it a bit too long? She silently added to herself.

When the raging torrents finally subsided and slowly seeped into the earth, the former battlefield was a scene of utter devastation. The enormous, spirit-infused serpent lay limp on the ground, lifeless, its mouth washed clean of blood by the rushing water.

Orochimaru's body lay motionless in the mud, completely devoid of life.

"...Is he/she dead?"

Zuo Yue looked at the motionless corpse below and was about to breathe a sigh of relief when a strong sense of regret welled up in her heart—she hadn't been able to do anything during that crisis!

"Stay alert!" But Naruto's shout immediately interrupted her thoughts. "This guy won't die so easily!"

Sakura was puzzled by this, since the other party had clearly already...?!

The next moment, a scene that sent chills down your spine and made your stomach churn occurred.

Suddenly, the prone "corpse" began to twitch unnaturally, its mouth opening wide at an angle that defied human anatomy!

Then, a giant snake, as thick as an adult's waist and covered in slimy scales, slowly crawled out of its open mouth!

That wasn't all! The newly appeared giant snake opened its blood-red maw again, and with an unsettling sound of sticky mucus being pulled, it "spit out" a soaking wet but unharmed "Orochimaru" from its throat!

He stood on the muddy ground, casually wiping the sticky residue off his face.

"...It seems I was wrong after all," Orochimaru said, his gaze fixed on Naruto in the tree. Although his tone still carried his usual flippancy, it now contained a seriousness and solemnity.

"You're certainly not prey, but a hunter worthy of serious attention. However..."

He stuck out his long tongue and licked his lips. "I'm not an opponent that can be taken down so easily."

"Spiritualism!"

As Orochimaru formed hand seals, a huge cloud of white smoke burst forth. The next moment, a colossal serpent, even larger than before and as thick as a small building, appeared, its cold, serpentine eyes gazing down.

"You are not a lamb to the slaughter... but in the struggle between predators, the one that first reveals its weakness often pays the price with its life."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly lowered his head and opened his mouth—the next second, countless writhing snakes gushed out of his mouth like a burst dam! The dense swarm of snakes intertwined and hissed, forming a terrifying living wave that swept towards the giant tree where Naruto and his companions were!

Is Orochimaru targeting Satsuki and Sakura? Does he want to use them to distract me? Naruto instantly saw through Orochimaru's intentions.

"Waaah..."

Sakura's face turned deathly pale at the sight of this nightmarish scene. Her legs gave way, and she collapsed to her knees on a tree branch, barely managing to keep from vomiting by covering her mouth. Satsuki was equally pale, but she still forced herself to raise her kunai. Her three-tomoe Sharingan spun wildly. She knew all too well the vast gap in strength between herself and her opponent in this level of combat.

"I won't let you succeed."

Naruto took a step forward. "You don't seem to have grasped the situation. I'll say it again—right now, you are the prey trapped in this hunting ground!"

Orochimaru was somewhat surprised. This was the first time in his life that, when facing any prey, the other party not only did not show the slightest fear, but instead retaliated.

Naruto had no intention of continuing the fight. He needed to demonstrate enough power at this moment to make Orochimaru weigh the pros and cons. Even if he couldn't stop him, he needed to make him realize that the so-called "Konoha Crush Plan" was simply impossible to achieve, and it would be best if he could just cancel it now.

Under Satsuki's panicked gaze, a blazing and violent crimson chakra rose from Naruto's body like flames, quickly covering his entire body.

The intelligence was actually true! Seeing this chakra, Orochimaru finally put away all his joking, and for the first time, a look of solemnity and astonishment appeared on his face.

Finally, four tails of a demon fox, composed of tailed beast chakra, appeared and swayed behind Naruto. His form rapidly changed in the red light, eventually transforming into a small, slender Nine-Tails exuding pure destructive aura!

"Aaaaaahh ...

Naruto, transformed into the Nine-Tails, let out a deafening roar, his body firmly protecting Satsuki and Sakura behind him. He opened his massive maw, and the destructive tailed beast Charak frantically compressed and condensed within it, emitting a chilling energy fluctuation.

"boom--!!!"

The next instant, a torrent of crimson tailed beast balls, several meters in diameter, tore through the air and crashed into the center of the surging swarm of snakes! The devastating shockwave instantly leveled trees, rocks, and even the ground within a hundred meters, and the violent air currents swept in all directions like a typhoon passing through!

Through the raging energy storm, Orochimaru's usually composed face finally betrayed a look of terror.
