"I still need his body for experiments, so don't break it; it will be difficult to collect afterwards."
That's your problem.
With a monstrous roar, the ten thousand snakes opened their blood-red maws and lunged at Shinji.
With a loud bang!
The ground was smashed into a large crater.
Shinji's figure instantly appeared more than ten meters away from the pit, and the mysterious bloodstain pattern reappeared on his face.
Crimson Blood Manipulation Technique - Scale Leap - Loaded!
Blood flow accelerates, and a continuous surge of energy is gushing out of the body.
With a heavy stomp on the ground, Shinji vanished from his spot once more, dodging Manda's sweeping tail. He then pulled out the Executioner's Blade stuck in the ground, and with his other hand, he drew a snakeskin sword and charged straight at Manda's massive body.
"Hmph, courting death!"
The giant snake glanced disdainfully at the small insect on the ground, raised its tail high, and then crashed down.
Despite its enormous size, Manda is incredibly fast at attacking.
However, Shinji was no pushover either. The enhancement he received from [Helin Leap - Carry] was comprehensive, and the speed was astonishing!
With its left and right dodges, the giant snake's attacks repeatedly missed, like a cannon hitting a mosquito.
This made it feel somewhat embarrassed.
So it opened its mouth wide and let out an overclocked roar.
"Eat up fear!"
This type of sonic attack is an indiscriminate, wide-range attack that even Shinji cannot dodge.
He immediately felt uncomfortable, as if a venomous snake was coiled on his back, staring intently at him with its scarlet eyes.
That lingering, persistent feeling, like a bone-deep infection, was awful.
It was as if even their fighting spirit was affected, and the fear in their hearts was constantly increasing.
"It's actually a mental-type sonic attack?!"
Shinji was startled, and then felt a darkness descend upon him.
It turns out that the moment he was hit, his movements had unconsciously slowed down.
Wanshe seized the opportunity and immediately unleashed a giant python tail sweep!
Shinji only had time to raise the guillotine in front of him before he was sent flying.
But the instant he was sent flying backward, he focused his gaze on Orochimaru, who was standing on top of Manda's head and acting all high and mighty, and then instantly activated the Executioner's Blade skill.
Shinji vanished into thin air and then suddenly appeared behind Orochimaru, his Executioner's Blade wielding unparalleled destructive power as he slashed upwards!
Breaking stealth with a single strike!
By the time Orochimaru sensed the danger, it was too late.
He had no choice but to detach his tail to escape, and his neck, as if he had eaten a rubber fruit, continued to extend along with his head.
Shinji's guillotine was a full two and a half meters long, but it couldn't keep up with Orochimaru's even longer neck.
*Pfft!*
Except for his neck, Orochimaru's body was split in two from bottom to top.
However, Orochimaru's escaped head had already reached the ground, its mouth wide open, and a wet figure crawled out from inside.
While the Orochi Style Substitution Technique is powerful, it is not a ninjutsu that can be used indefinitely.
This time, Orochimaru's molting speed was significantly slower than before.
Shinji also knew that Orochimaru was one of the most difficult snakes to kill in the entire Naruto world, even if he really killed Orochimaru's body here today.
Before long, Orochimaru will be able to revive again using other containers.
Each of the cursed seals can be considered a vessel he uses for resurrection; that's how shameless he is.
So Shinji decisively focused his attention on the 'most awesome snake' at his feet.
"Damn it, if I can't kill Orochimaru, can't I at least kill you?"
Swish!
Without saying a word, Shinji slashed Manda. Manda was in so much pain that it immediately began to twist its body violently and thrashed around, trying to shake the person on its head off.
Shinji was indeed a little unsteady on his feet and almost fell.
However, he immediately plunged the Executioner's Blade into Manda's body to secure himself, then lay on top of Manda and began stabbing wildly with the snakeskin sword!
The snake-skin sword is even sharper than the Executioner's Blade, and each attack that causes damage absorbs a portion of Manda's chakra.
After only five or six sword strikes, Manda felt an emptiness as his chakra rapidly drained away.
"Orochimaru, come quick and get this bastard down here!"
Left with no other choice, Manda immediately sought help from Orochimaru.
Orochimaru didn't hesitate and immediately went to help.
However, Shinji was determined to kill Manda and completely ignored Orochimaru. He kept thrusting his snakeskin sword into Manda's body, almost hollowing it out.
Orochimaru! Take me back, quick!
Feeling its own weakness, Manda no longer cared about losing face and prepared to escape back to Ryuchi Cave, but Orochimaru, who had summoned it, was preventing it from returning.
Although Orochimaru didn't know what had happened, he could sense Manda's fear, so he immediately prepared to dispel the summoning and release Manda back.
But at that moment, Shinji, realizing that Manda was about to escape, also activated the snake-skin sword, which was now fully charged with energy.
A small golden snake, completely disproportionate to the size of the giant snake, bit down on the giant snake's wound, and a terrible petrification curse flowed directly into the giant snake's body through its fangs.

With a loud bang!
Manda disappeared and was sent back to Ryuchi Cave.
But Shinji knew that this guy was doomed, unless he could survive after his head was chopped off!
The terrible petrification curse will quickly corrode the entire body of the serpent, eventually turning it into a lifelike stone sculpture.
If Yongji-dong becomes a tourist attraction in the future, the Mansakara stone sculpture will surely become a must-visit spot for countless online celebrities.
Just then, the commotion finally attracted Hidan and Tobi.
"Shinji-senpai, we're here~"
"Is this androgynous guy the enemy this time? I wonder if the evil god would like such a sacrifice."
Orochimaru's face was grim. Although he did not know that Manda was not far from death, without Manda as a powerful ally, and with reinforcements arriving, the current situation was very unfavorable for him.
His gaze swept briefly over the wrapped-up Kusanagi sword and the Hozuki clan child who was unable to move by the stream.
He was already preparing for a strategic retreat.
There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
"The Formation of Ten Thousand Serpents!"
"The evil serpent meanders!"
Orochimaru suddenly released countless venomous snakes to block Shinji and the others, and then summoned a giant, winding serpent.
The giant, winding serpent swallowed Orochimaru whole as soon as it appeared, then slid and charged forward at high speed, its target the sealed Kusanagi sword.
Just as the giant serpent was about to swallow the Kusanagi sword, the blood crystal covering the sword suddenly exploded, and a large number of fragments tore the serpent's mouth to shreds.
Then the decapitation blade and the crimson crescent scythe flew in simultaneously, striking the serpent's body and pinning it to the ground, revealing an extremely painful expression in its eyes.
But immediately the eyes of the giant, serpentine snake became numb and empty, clearly indicating that Orochimaru had begun to forcibly control it.
Tear...
Orochimaru ignored everything, directly controlling the giant, winding snake to tear his body apart, and then headed straight for the stream without looking back.
He swallowed the still-numb white-haired imp whole, then plunged headfirst into the stream.
A large amount of blood stained the stream red, and by the time Shinji caught up, Orochimaru's whereabouts were no longer certain.
All I can say is that Orochimaru is truly decisive and ruthless.
Given those injuries, it was almost impossible for the giant snake to survive.
"As expected, rebuilding the evil god cult won't be so easy. We still need to figure out a way to deceive them!"
Shinji sighed.
People like Orochimaru are indeed difficult to recruit because what he pursues is different from what others do.
He initially agreed to join Akatsuki with the intention of acquiring the Rinnegan, but he ended up being blasted out of the group by Itachi's Sharingan, let alone getting the Rinnegan.
Of course, Orochimaru's real confidence comes from his various life-saving trump cards.
Since you can't kill me anyway, why should I listen to you?
Fortunately, Shinji didn't have high hopes from the beginning; if he didn't want to join, so be it.
"Who is this guy? Why are all his ninjutsu so disgusting?"
Hidan asked, clearly annoyed, as he stomped on the poisonous snake beneath his feet.
"The other party is Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha. Oh, no, he was originally one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha. Now this guy is just a rogue ninja."
"Orochimaru? I've heard of that guy; he seems like a pretty powerful character. But how did he get away so fast?"
"Knowing he couldn't win, he just ran away. When it comes to survival skills, you probably can't find anyone in the entire ninja world more cunning than this scoundrel."
As he spoke, Shinji picked up the trophy that Orochimaru had been forced to leave behind—the Kusanagi sword.
As expected, the system gave a prompt that it could be transformed into a spell tool.
This Kusanagi sword is already very practical; if it could be transformed into a cursed tool, it would undoubtedly become even stronger.
Unfortunately, he is currently short of funds and already possesses the decapitation sword and the snakeskin sword, so there is no need for him to convert them for the time being.
