C350 Did They All Die Once
Bang!
A huge black shadow descended from the sky, accompanied by the sound of heavy objects crashing to the ground like thunder.
Manda, who looked like a rotten cloth bag, smashed heavily onto the ground.
Red blood splashed everywhere, as if it was free. A large amount of blood dyed the ground in a radius of several hundred meters red.
The body that looked like a small mountain and the scales that represented invulnerability.
In front of the Shinratensei, it gave people a feeling as if it was made of paper. It didn't have any effect at all.
With such a huge body, not to mention the broken scales, all of the muscles and bones in his body were crushed into pieces the moment he crashed into the rock wall.
In the past, he was famous in Ninja. As the symbol of Orochimaru's Three Nines, he was the most powerful Manda in the Dragon Cave.
At this moment, he had turned into a pile of meat paste.
The pair of diamond-shaped eyes that still had an ominous glint twitched and opened. With great difficulty, he opened his mouth and said intermittently, "Damn Orochimaru, how dare you use me as a shield? I will kill you!
The words that were as fierce as the last ray of light dispersed like thunder.
However, as soon as it finished speaking, Manda's life force was also destroyed.
The corner of Uchiha Qinyu's mouth couldn't help but twitch when he saw this scene.
At first, Qinyu thought that his chaotic entry would cause the fate of many people and things in the world of fire shadow to change.
Never would he have thought that Manda wouldn't be able to escape the fate of being tricked to death in the end.
Moreover, he had become the short-lived spirit beast of the Three Nines Spiritual Beasts more than ten years earlier.
"Fortunately, it was Orochimaru who was cursed. It has nothing to do with me." With a sway of his body, he rushed toward Manda's corpse.
Before he could get close, he opened his mouth slightly and let out a tearing sound. Soon, he saw white bone spurs piercing out of it.
The originally slightly opened mouth was forcefully opened.
A figure covered in broken bones and blood staggered out of the mouth of the snake.
Looking at Kimimaro who was not turned into meat paste by the Shinratensei, Qinyu secretly let out a sigh of relief.
However, he was quickly pulled out of the snake's mouth by Kimimaro.
From his tattered clothes, which were stained with blood, one could vaguely tell that he was Orochimaru, who had turned into meat paste.
After all, the three layers of Rashōmon and the death of Manda were all Orochimaru's defensive techniques.
Compared to Kimimaro, there was clearly a layer of steel like bone armor missing.
If it didn't turn into meat paste, it would really be a miracle.
"Boss, I'm sorry. I failed and implicated Orochimaru!" Kimimaro said apologetically.
In his eyes, if it wasn't for Orochimaru pulling him into Manda's mouth at the last moment, he wouldn't have been able to resist this wave of impact with his current kekkei genkai and the bone armor he summoned.
This made Kimimaro, who had been opposing Orochimaru from the start, feel guilty.
"Hehe, could it be that you have forgotten my evaluation of Orochimaru?" Qinyu rubbed Kimimaro's head and said with a smile, "In this world, anyone can die, but no one can kill Orochimaru completely. Look at his body."
Kimimaro was startled when he heard that. He remembered Qinyu's evaluation of Orochimaru back in Wushan township. He could not wait to look back.
The first thing he saw was the wriggling meat paste.
The frequency of the wriggling gradually increased from a small degree at the beginning.
In the end, Orochimaru's body, which had been crushed into meat paste, moved like a boneless snake.
His tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, revealing the whites of his eyes. Along with the sound of retching, his bloody mouth opened up at the same time.
A pair of long and slender hands reached out from Orochimaru's hands.
In an extremely shocking manner, he grabbed the upper and lower jaw. In the next moment, he suddenly exerted his strength and pulled it open on both sides.
A wet body drilled out of the torn mouth. Under that familiar face, Kimimaro's face became unusually livid.
Even Qinyu was not used to Uncle Snake's method of resurrection.
He lasted for half a minute before the disgusting ceremony finally came to an end.
The body covered in saliva stood in front of Qinyu and Kimimaro in a daze.
However, compared to their disgusting faces, Orochimaru still had lingering fear.
If he hadn't exhausted all the potential of this immortal reincarnation body at the last moment, he would have regenerated his cells.
He was afraid that Orochimaru would have turned into meat paste just like Manda.
Orochimaru turned back to look at Manda who had been killed by the trap. After letting out a breath of turbid air, he looked at Qinyu and said, "I should have barely passed the test."
"I really wonder if they all died once when they passed the test."
Thinking back to the brief exchange just now, Orochimaru still remembered it clearly. He couldn't help but let out a sigh.
However, it was precisely because of this life and death experience that Orochimaru felt a trace of relief in his heart.
He was glad that he wasn't reckless enough to confront Qinyu head on.
He was afraid that no matter what method he used, he would still die in the end.
"I said that I can take the next move, no matter what method I use." Qinyu looked at Orochimaru.
Just as Kimimaro said, if Orochimaru did not help him at the last moment, he would not be able to pass.
But because of this reason, Qinyu's view of Orochimaru had changed a little.
Perhaps, the current Orochimaru was not like Orochimaru, who had become numb a long time ago in the original work, more than ten years later.
It was just like the evaluation given by the Third Generation Hokage when it was killed in the original work.
Killing a teacher would still make you feel sad!
This proved that as a Rogue Ninja, Orochimaru still had a trace of rationality left.
However, there were also many speculations in the original work.
Qinyu had once suspected that every time Orochimaru split a Heaven and Earth Curse Seal, he would attempt to extract a trace of his conscience.
In the original work, Orochimaru was killed by Sasuke once and sealed by Uchiha Itachi once.
At that time, Orochimaru was still full of greed towards Sasuke's young body.1
However, after Sasuke cast a curse on Mitarashi Anko and revived Orochimaru,
Orochimaru's personality had changed.
It could be said that his character had been completely washed clean.
It completely went against Shui Yue's conjecture.
He, who had always liked to destroy the Konohagakure, no longer had any interest in medicinal the great ninja wars.
He had clearly taken back his own strength and had even successfully taken back his hands, but he opened his mouth and said that he had lost interest in Sasuke's body.
In the end, he even helped Sasuke summon the fire shadows of the past generations and rushed to the battlefield to save Tsunade.
