Traveling through Naruto with Heroes of Might and Magic.

Danzo also did not take the opportunity to take 'A' from the ward.

He watched as Hiruzen Sarutobi and the Anbu left.

"Although the time spent luring the tiger away from the mountain hasn't been long enough, but... he's just a kid, Orochimaru should have already dealt with him..."

Danzo's lips twitched slightly, and he also headed towards the Forest of Death.

……

The Forest of Death, near the tower.

The eerie background music seemed to never stop.

The ground exploded! Countless venomous snakes surged out of the ground like a black tide, instantly engulfing an area of ​​tens of meters around them!

Each snake bared its fangs and spewed foul-smelling venomous mist!

"Ninja Art: Ten Thousand Snake Formation!"

They have clearly engaged in combat here.

The killing power of a single venomous snake was not enough to threaten Qingwu.

But there are just too many of them.

Qingwu tried to use the fastest centaurs to block Orochimaru's first wave of attacks. After losing several centaurs, the short-legged dwarf and the centaurs reunited.

"Boom boom boom!!"

The dwarves simultaneously swung their warhammers and slammed them into the ground.

It's not ninjutsu, it's pure power resonance!

The simultaneous slamming of sixty warhammers into the ground triggered a small seismic wave that forcefully overturned the "snake tide."

"Now!"

Qingwu's expression tightened, and he issued an order.

At the treetop, forty-five wood spirits simultaneously released their strings.

“Swish swish swish——!!!”

Forty-five emerald green arrows fell like a torrential rain!

It wasn't random shooting; it was a comprehensive barrage that sealed off Orochimaru's entire escape route!

"Ha..." Orochimaru remained calm. He had originally intended to test the boy's strength, and this attack...

"Triple Rashomon!"

Orochimaru slammed his hand on the ground.

Three enormous demon-faced gates burst forth from the ground, blocking all the angles from which the arrows would come. This was an absolute defense sufficient to withstand the Tailed Beast Ball!

However, the Wood Spirit's attack still caused Orochimaru to exclaim in surprise.

"Huh!?"

The penetrating power of the arrows from Tier 3 units exceeded his expectations.

The first Rashomon effect didn't last long before it shattered.

However, since the arrow had disappeared, Orochimaru was temporarily relieved and stretched out his pale right hand.

The eerie right hand, seemingly boneless, stretched infinitely and reached for Qingwu's neck.

"Software modification!"

Qingwu leaped backward and hid among the treetops.

Orochimaru is a very difficult enemy to deal with; he needs to be extremely careful not to get touched.

"Click!"

The second Rashomon gate also cracked open at this time.

Orochimaru's attention was drawn to this.

He hadn't paid attention to the "afterimage" behind the arrow just now, but now he had some guesses.

"Interesting~!" Orochimaru stuck out his long tongue and licked the corner of his mouth.

He felt even more eager towards the boy in front of him.

There is so much to study.

"Those eyesores should be here soon." Orochimaru glanced at the sky.

He knew the capabilities of Konoha's Anbu; if the Security Department was also alerted, things would get complicated.

"Then I should get serious!"

Orochimaru bit his finger and slammed his left hand on the ground.

A massive summoning array appeared on the ground: "Ninja Art: Summoning Technique!"

"boom!"

The spirit communication array was fully activated, and from within the smoke, a giant serpent, tens of meters long, with purplish-black scales and horns on its head, coiled up!

Man-Snake is a top-tier spiritual creature found in Ryuchi Cave, one of the three sacred sites.

"Orochimaru, this time I want two hundred sacrifices!"

The ten thousand snakes hissed and flicked their tongues...

Chapter 46 Fierce Battle with Orochimaru

Qingwu was forced back by Orochimaru's soft body at close range.

Meanwhile, the centaurs and dwarves on the ground, who could only receive simple commands, continued their attack.

The two types of troops cooperated to break through the Ten Thousand Snakes Formation.

The barrage of spears and warhammers rained down, creating cracks in the third Rashomon gate.

"Kill them all, and you can choose any sacrifice you like!" Orochimaru pointed.

"Hiss—!!" The Thousand Serpent opened its mouth, and purple poisonous mist spewed out like a waterfall, causing vegetation to wither and rocks to corrode wherever it passed!

"Recall!" Qingwu circled around and appeared near Rashomon. He first recalled all the centaurs.

I learned from the Deadwood Guardian that the centaurs' flesh and blood bodies would be killed by the poisonous insects of the Aburame's family.

The remaining dwarves ignored the warnings and continued to swing their warhammers at Rashomon.

Qingwu quickly changed his instructions, ordering the sixty dwarves to disperse.

Basic units can only receive very simple commands: attack, defend, and move.

Constantly attacking Rashomon is a bit inflexible.

His goal was not to defeat Orochimaru behind Rashomon, but to stall for time through defense.

Poisonous fog enveloped the dwarves.

A flash of light appeared on all the dwarves, and their "Noble Magic Resistance" kicked in, preventing any of them from falling.

This enraged the ten thousand serpents.

With a flick of its tail, it sent more than a dozen dwarves flying.

"You think you have a size advantage? I have that too!"

Spiritual communication!

"boom!!"

A massive, withered tree guardian appeared in the arena.

Although its height appears to be only one-third that of Manda.

With the lord's attribute bonus, the withered tree guard's height increased from 12 meters to 15 meters, while the Thousand Serpents appeared to be nearly 50 meters long.

Countless roots extended from the withered tree guardian, temporarily binding the myriad snakes.

"Oh?"

Orochimaru looked at the newly appeared "tree spirit" with great interest.

"This must be the large psychic creature that caused the root to break."

While the Serpent was being controlled by the Wood Guardian, the Wood Elves launched their second wave of attacks.

This time, the Wood Elves didn't fight Rashomon head-on, but instead targeted the giant Manda.

Puff puff……

"hiss--"

Dozens of bloody holes appeared on the body of the ten thousand snakes.

Its defenses weren't that great, or rather... the Wood Elf's arrows were too powerful.

"Damn it, a bunch of scum!!"

The serpent roared in human language and broke free from the control of the withered tree guard, charging into the forest.

The wood elf's attack successfully angered it, and its target changed.

at the same time--

"boom!"

The final Rashomon shattered thanks to the dwarves' relentless efforts.

Orochimaru's figure was revealed.

"Move and fire!" Qingwu gave the order.

The wood spirits leaped and moved through the forest, unleashing a barrage of arrows at Manda and the unprotected Orochimaru.

"Ho..."

Orochimaru ignored Manda's life or death and quickly formed hand seals: "Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
