Dust clears, smoke fades.
Pain's Six Paths, wearing black and red cloud robes, line up in the open space of the ruins, their presence overwhelming.
Their presence is very strong. Orochimaru spots them immediately and raises his giant tail, whipping it over with a whoosh.
Boom...
The ground explodes, and shattered stones scatter like hail, but Pain's Six Paths have already moved to other locations.
One of them, the one with the ponytail, jumps to the ground, makes hand signs quickly and slams his hands on the ground.
"Summoning Technique!"
Bang...
A cloud of thick white smoke rises, and the next moment, a giant hyena with black rods pierced through its nose leaps out.
"Summoning Technique... it's the Animal Path."
From the genie, Orochimaru understands most of Pain's Six Paths' abilities, and recognizes the person's identity at a glance.
"Trying to test or deplete my strength? This is a troublesome ability, I can't let him continue."
Orochimaru's snake tail sways, and his body shoots out like lightning, arriving in front of the Animal Path in the blink of an eye, raising his fist and slamming it down.
"Roar..."
At this moment, the giant hyena lets out a roar and pounces on Orochimaru.
The sound of the wind whistles past his ears. Orochimaru whips his giant tail, striking it like a steel whip on its forehead, sending it back where it came from.
His upper body twists in a circle, unloading the force of the recoil, regaining his posture, and his fist continues to slam towards the Animal Path.
However, that brief pause allowed the Animal Path to complete a hand sign and cast Summoning Technique again.
In the smoke, a pink tongue lashes out, wraps around the Animal Path's waist, and suddenly retracts backward, narrowly avoiding the fist.
Boom...
The fist creates a large pit in the ground. Orochimaru glances to the side and sees an emerald green chameleon appearing on top of a broken tree trunk.
Before he can continue to pursue, the hyena that was knocked away earlier tangles up again, with an extra head on its neck.
The ability of the multi-headed dog: when attacked, it will increase the number of heads. In this way, it can split into a corresponding number, turning into multiple hyenas to attack. So this time, Orochimaru does not attack directly.
His body twists, avoiding the hyena's pounce. His snake tail wraps around its waist and uses his body weight to pin it to the ground.
During this time, the Animal Path continues to cast Summoning Technique.
Bang, bang, bang... In the smoke, the silhouettes of giant summoned beasts loom, some are birds, some are cows.
After doing all this, his body is swallowed into the chameleon's stomach. The Animal Path disappears invisibly, even Orochimaru's Sage Art detection cannot find him, fundamentally denying the plan to behead the Animal Path.
"Using numbers to bully the few?"
Orochimaru spits out a bright red snake tongue, the hissing sound is like weird laughter, "However, it's just Summoning Technique after all..."
His hands begin to make hand signs. Because his body is huge, the movements seem somewhat slow, but in reality, the hand signs are completed instantly.
Tagorihime, who had previously been unsummoned due to the collapse of the giant tree, is summoned again.
"...Have you regained your sanity?"
Tagorihime stands on Orochimaru's shoulder, reaches out and touches the giant neck in front of her, and says with a delicate laugh, "However, the body hasn't fully recovered yet."
"Save the small talk."
Orochimaru shakes his neck and says slowly, "Help me stop these guys."
Tagorihime looks around at the surrounding behemoths, and licks her lips,
"Tsk, this is a troublesome matter. If I have to do it myself... Summoning Technique!"
Bang...
After a puff of white smoke, Ichikishimahime and Tagitsuhime appear beside her.
Seeing this situation, the two snake princesses immediately understand the current situation. Without saying a word, they each cast Summoning Technique.
Instead of thinking about solving problems yourself, you entrust them to your subordinates. They truly are the second-in-commands of Ryuuchi Cave.
The next moment, Manda and Garaga join the battlefield.
"Orochimaru... what happened to you?"
Manda is also surprised to see him in this state.
Now Orochimaru is nearly 50 meters tall. Although he is smaller than Manda, he can almost be called a giant summoned beast.
However, Orochimaru does not answer. His hands tightly restrain the struggling hyena, and his snake tail reaches towards Manda,
"Give me some Chakra."
When he took over this body from the little white snake, both natural energy and his own Chakra were actually nearly empty. In addition, modifying the body and casting Summoning Technique, he had almost none left.
So in the previous battle, Orochimaru, who had received the true teachings of the Third Hokage's Ninjutsu, did not use even a single ordinary Ninjutsu. Instead, he used this unfamiliar body to fight.
"I understand."
Manda also extends his snake tail and intertwines it with the white one, sending his own Sage Chakra over.
Fortunately, the white snake system's Sage Art comes from the same source, Ryuuchi Cave's White Snake Sage, so there is naturally no repulsion. Orochimaru easily accepts this Chakra.
Just as Orochimaru and Manda are 'mating', a giant rhinoceros with horns on its head charges forward, slamming towards them.
Red Fang's remaining single eye glances at Orochimaru, and he also pounces on the enemy.
Due to being betrayed by contractors in the past, Red Fang doesn't want to become a summoned beast fighting for others, but with the White Snake Sage suppressing him, he can't resist Orochimaru at all.
If that's the case, then he can only use more intense combat to vent this frustration and anger.
His snake tail slams downwards, and a thick earth wall rises from the ground, directly blocking the bull's path.
Boom!
The earth wall is broken by the rhinoceros's charge, but its head inevitably becomes dizzy. Fortunately, the large horn exists, so the problem isn't too big.
The giant rhinoceros shakes its head, regains its strength, and is about to charge towards Orochimaru again.
However, a stream of lead-gray foulness is spat onto its head, almost instantly turning into a large stone ball.
"Stupid thing, I can eat ten of you in one bite."
Garaga slaps the rhinoceros, which is plunged into darkness and loses its direction, to the ground with its tail. Then it coils around it, locking its waist and abdomen. The enormous force almost strangles the rhinoceros to death.
In just one exchange, a giant summoned beast loses its power to fight. This is a crushing victory in terms of quality.
Boom boom boom...
At this moment, stone balls the size of millstones fall from the sky, exploding on Garaga's body, shaking the snake's body violently.
"Damn it, what is that?"
Garaga looks up, a bronze-green monster bird resembling an eagle or falcon is circling in the sky. The so-called bomb stone balls are from its lower body, whether it's bird eggs or bird...
"Snake Princess!"
Garaga's heart is filled with humiliation, becoming enraged, but it can't reach it, it doesn't know how to use levitation techniques.
"Ara ara, Garaga is angry."
The three snake princesses look at each other, Ichikishimahime flies into the sky, and tangles with the Eight Span Bird.
Although her speed is not fast enough and she is at a disadvantage in terms of terrain, with her blocking the attacks, the Eight Span Bird can forget about interfering with the battle on the ground.
