208 Chapter 208: Whitebeard Strikes! Severing Manda's Attack! The Vibrating Light Wave of His

Right Fist!

"You are..." Orochimaru's gaze, filled with suspicion, fell upon Shisui. Despite Shisui's eyes being partially covered by bandages, obscuring almost a quarter of his face, Orochimaru could still recognize certain features that overlapped with someone from his memories.

Orochimaru immediately recalled who this young man before him was.

"Uchiha Shisui?" Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils narrowed slightly. He had indeed encountered Shisui, not just once.

Holding the Kusanagi sword, Orochimaru asked, "Your presence... does it represent Konohagakure or the Whitebeard Pirates?"

During the Third Great Ninja War, Orochimaru had once ordered Shisui to undertake dangerous missions.

He asked this question because from Shisui's previous words, Orochimaru sensed a significant connection between Shisui and Hoshigaki Kisame.

Shisui replied expressionlessly, "I am no longer a ninja of Konohagakure. I am a pirate of the Whitebeard crew."

"Heh... as I suspected," 

Orochimaru's palm gripping the Kusanagi sword grew slightly sweaty.

The last time Orochimaru encountered the Whitebeard crew, it consisted of only Whitebeard, Naruto, Uzumaki Fuushi, Uzumaki Karin, and that persistent Kakashi.

Apart from Whitebeard's overwhelming strength, the rest were merely so-so.

Even...

In Orochimaru's eyes, the remaining few were nothing more than burdens to Whitebeard. Even though Naruto's progress was somewhat beyond Orochimaru's expectations, Naruto was still not his match.

However, Hoshigaki Kisame, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist from Kirigakure Village, and Shisui of the Body Flicker from Konohagakure Village were different.

Orochimaru was well aware that these two guys were very strong.

"The Whitebeard Pirates have 'grown' huh!"

Orochimaru couldn't help but lick his lips: "But what's with your eyes? Haven't seen you for a few years, and you've lost your eyes?"

"I gambled them on the future, but obviously, I lost. Now, I am a blind man who can't see anything."

Shisui, holding his ninja sword, said: "Orochimaru, you came to Konohagakure and hurt Naruto, just to say these old stories?"

Orochimaru chuckled: "It was that brat who started it with me first!"

"You're telling a bunch of pirates who started it first?"

Kisame grinned maliciously: "Are the Sannin of Konohagakure so naive?"

Kisame charged at Orochimaru again.

At the same time... Shisui immediately coordinated with Kisame's actions.

Shisui took out several shurikens from his Ninja Tools bag and decisively threw them in the direction of Orochimaru.

Orochimaru quickly used his Kusanagi sword to knock down those shurikens, and Kisame had already rushed to Orochimaru in the blink of an eye.

The Samehada, was like a blunt weapon.

It smashed hard at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru quickly dodged, and Samehada smashed on top of Manda's head.

With Kisame's monstrous strength, this strike actually smashed a few cracks in one of Manda's scales.

"What amazing strength." Orochimaru's eyelids twitched slightly, and he was somewhat covetous: "Although it's a bit ugly, it's a perfect vessel for reincarnation!"

Suddenly!

"Fire Release. Great Fire Dragon Technique!!!" Three fire dragons spewed out from Shisui's mouth and rushed towards Orochimaru.

"Ninja Art, Multiple Hidden Shadow Snake Hands!!!" One of Orochimaru's arms decisively turned into three black giant snakes.

The scales of the giant snakes shone with a faint metallic luster at first glance.

The three giant snakes coiled together, like a huge shield.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The fire dragons fell on the giant snake shield, and the violent explosion impact made Orochimaru retreat three steps continuously.

"Roar!!!" A roar from Kisame also sounded, and the giant snake shield was actually shattered by the heavy blade, Samehada.

Kisame stepped on Manda's head with both feet, using Manda's head to exert force, and Samehada hit Orochimaru hard.

"Puffff!!!" Orochimaru's eyes bulged.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole person was smashed and flew out.

His abdomen was even more torn open by the barbs of Samehada, leaving a hideous wound.

"Fire Release. Phoenix Fire Claw Red!!!" Shisui, with his Observation Haki, vaguely sensed Orochimaru's trajectory of flying out.

He took out four kunai, jumped up immediately, and threw the kunai while quickly forming hand seals.

The flaming chain entwined with a fierce flame, flew straight towards the giant serpent, Orochimaru, at a speed even faster than Orochimaru's retreat.

Thud, thud, thud, thud...

All of Orochimaru's limbs were hit by the kunai.

A violent explosion occurred.

All limbs were blown to pieces.

"No! It's a clone!" Shisui immediately sensed something was off.

Suddenly!

Orochimaru, who had somehow appeared behind Shisui and Kisame, spat out a giant shuriken from his mouth. The shuriken was already as big as half of Orochimaru's body.

"Ninjutsu, Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!!!" Orochimaru threw the giant shuriken forward. The shuriken quickly multiplied from one to two, two to four, four to eight, eight to sixteen...

By the time it approached Kisame and Shisui, the number of giant shurikens had reached hundreds, if not thousands!

Kisame decisively stood in front of Shisui, his hands forming seals honestly: "Water Release. Exploding Water Wave!!!"

As Kisame opened his mouth and spat forward

An astonishing stream of water surged forward with a force that could destroy anything, rushing towards the large number of shurikens in front.

One by one, the giant shurikens were washed away by the water flow.

But there were still many giant shurikens tearing through the water flow and approaching within inches.

"Uzumaki Secret Technique, Adamantine Sealing Chains!!"

Below, a soft shout came from Uzumaki Fuushi. Half of the chakra in her body was instantly drained, and her hands burst out with dense golden chains, heading straight for Manda's head.

Each golden chain was connected to a giant shuriken.

Driven by the momentum of the forward-flying shuriken, Uzumaki Fuushi was pulled forward and staggered several steps.

But she exerted force with both hands and violently pulled the chain back.

The giant shurikens that were about to hit Kisame, tearing through the water flow, were all pulled away by Uzumaki Fuushi.

"Huff... huff..."

With her strength participating in this level of battle, just using one Ninjutsu was enough to make her pant.

The large number of golden chains that flew out of her hands began to dissipate, but only one remained.

This golden chain was not connected to any giant shuriken.

It was connected to Orochimaru's ankle!

"Uzumaki clan?" Orochimaru found that this foot of his was no longer under his control and completely uncontrollable.

The golden chain emitted a strange power, and the skin connected by the chain began to appear one sealing curse after another.

"What a powerful sealing technique..." Orochimaru immediately swung the Kusanagi sword, and with one sword, he cut the golden chain.

However, at this moment.

"Orochimaru-senpai, I'm sorry." A faint voice from Shisui rang out from behind Orochimaru: "You thought it was two against one, but it's actually three against one."

Orochimaru: "!"

Puff...

A not-so-long ninja sword pierced through Orochimaru's back heart.

The sword emerged from in front of Orochimaru, its blade stained with crimson blood, which continuously trickled down.

Just as Shisui was about to pull out the sword, Orochimaru immediately grabbed the blade with one hand.

"Kid, some people's hearts are on the right side!" Orochimaru's mouth was filled with blood, his neck suddenly elongated quickly, circled around, and bit towards Shisui behind him.

Shisui's Observation Haki was just awakening, and he wasn't particularly skilled at using it, and was unexpectedly bitten on the arm by Orochimaru.

Shisui didn't panic, his other hand quickly formed a seal: "Fire Release, Great Fireball Jutsu!!!"

The Great Fireball Jutsu released point-blank directly hit Orochimaru.

Also at the same time.

A large amount of strange curse words suddenly spread from Shisui's bitten arm: "Ninja Art, Snake Scale Binding Curse!!!"

Boom!!!

Orochimaru's entire head was blown away by the Fire Release Ninjutsu.

His neck extended tens of meters long, and his face was burned by the Fire Release Ninjutsu, covered with black and burn marks.

And on Shisui's arm, wounds began to emerge one after another, very sturdy scales.

In just the blink of an eye, the entire arm was covered with scales.

"What is this?" Shisui found that the arm wrapped in scales was very difficult to move.

The sword he was holding in his hand couldn't help but loosen.

At the same time.

Orochimaru's two arms also twisted back like rubber, quickly grabbing Shisui's body.

"Hehe, Shisui... without a pair of Sharingan, your strength is not a little bit worse!" Orochimaru's head, which was blown away by the Great Fireball Jutsu, returned again.

A big hand grabbed Orochimaru's neck, it was Kisame who had rushed over!

Kisame forcefully threw Orochimaru, with the help of his monstrous strength, Orochimaru was directly thrown out.

Then, Kisame held the Samehada, and slashed at Shisui's arm.

Swish!

Samehada cut off the chakra that didn't belong to Shisui from his arm, that was the chakra Orochimaru used for Ninjutsu.

The snake scales on the arm began to fall off little by little.

Shisui regained control of his arm.

On the other side.

Orochimaru had already been thrown out of Manda's body by Kisame, his soft and extendable weird body heavily fell on a building ruin, and dust was flying all over the sky.

"Cough cough..." Orochimaru stood up from the ruins, the dust choked him and he coughed twice.

When Orochimaru looked up.

He could see that Manda was gradually being suppressed by Gamabunta and Katsuyu.

It was a bit too reluctant for Manda to fight against the two.

At this moment, Manda had become very embarrassed.

"Water Release. Rain of Four Sharks!!!"

Kisame, standing on top of Manda's head, also jumped down.

The Samehada, fell with him, Kisame's hands had already completed the seal, and he pressed down towards the air with one palm.

A torrent of water gushed from the palm of his hand, transforming into four giant sharks. The sharks began to split rapidly until they formed hundreds of small sharks, falling like raindrops.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!!!

The small sharks that fell to the ground smashed the ground into pits that were several inches deep.

Orochimaru had no choice but to wield the Kusanagi sword, dancing it in a way that was impenetrable, slashing one shark after another.

".....It's still too forced." Blood gushed from Orochimaru's mouth, this was because he had been stabbed by Shisui earlier.

Orochimaru had already intended to retreat, even if he was unwilling, but he knew that he could no longer stay in Konohagakure for long: "Manda! Give Konohagakure a final surprise!"

"Hmph!"

With a cold snort, Manda swung his tail forcefully at Gamabunta, forcing Gamabunta to retreat.

His giant eyes fell on Naruto on top of Gamabunta's head.

"Before the surprise.....let me kill this brat first!"

Feeling the pain of a large wound on his head.

Manda gritted his teeth.

If the wound on his head was inflicted by that stinky toad or the slug sage, it would still be within Manda's acceptance.

But it was inflicted by a brat, which made Manda feel that it was extremely humiliating.

This was something that his extremely proud character would not allow to happen.

Manda ignored the corrosive mucus of the slug sage.

He forcefully endured the pain of the mucus, quickly approached Gamabunta, and then opened his mouth towards Bunta.

A large amount of black smoke spewed out of his mouth, blocking Bunta's sight.

"Cough cough cough.....damn worm! How many years have you not brushed your teeth?" This breath made Gamabunta almost vomit.

Also taking advantage of this opportunity, Manda's long body bound Gamabunta tightly in an instant.

A pair of snake eyes seemed to pierce through the black fog.

Falling on Jiraiya and Naruto.

Jiraiya was suddenly startled, he stood in front of Naruto: "Naruto, hide behind me!"

"Fire Release, Dragon Flame Oil Bomb!!!"

From Jiraiya's mouth spewed a Fire Release Ninjutsu combined with oil and fire.

Three balls of intense flames turned into the shape of a dragon head and rushed towards Manda, intending to block Manda's attack in this way.

The fierce fire burned Manda's snake letter and mouth, causing numerous blisters, and the pain made Manda's eyes full of bloodshot.

But Manda actually forcibly endured this pain, opened his huge mouth, tore the three fire dragons, and wanted to bite down.

Jiraiya was suddenly shocked: "Has Manda gone mad?"

Gamabunta was strangled by Manda and had some difficulty breathing: "This guy, he's the most arrogant snake in the Dragon Cave, he definitely can't stand being hurt by a kid.

"Damn it! Big Fox, lend me a little more..." Naruto immediately said.

"No need." Kurama yawned and casually said in the sealing space: "Your Pops is about to make a move.

"...Pops?" Naruto was stunned.

Below.

Whitebeard stood in front of a huge ninja blade, which was the ninja blade that Gamabunta had thrown away before. The ninja blade was very large, it looked like it weighed tens of thousands of pounds.

Whitebeard grabbed the back of the ninja blade with one hand, without any effort, he pulled up this huge ninja blade.

He looked up at the purple snake that was binding a big frog.

"Gurararara! Suddenly I feel like eating snake soup would be nice."

Whitebeard lifted the ninja blade and casually threw it upwards.

Like throwing a stone.

Whoosh...

And it was this throw by Whitebeard, the amazing speed of the huge ninja blade breaking through the air, was so fast that it rubbed against the air and caused a surge of flames.

The entire ninja blade was covered by a ball of flames.

Manda, who was about to bite down with his big mouth, suddenly saw a flash of fire in the corner of his eye.

Before Manda could react.

Puchi...

The ninja blade directly hit Manda's lower jaw, easily tearing Manda's scale defense, both Manda's lower and upper jaws were pierced by the ninja blade.

The powerful force carried by the ninja blade made Manda's head involuntarily lift up.

At the same time.

Whitebeard was already holding Murakumogiri with both hands, a hearty laugh crossed his face, and without hesitation, he slashed at Manda's body.

Whitebeard's sword was swung through the air.

Whoosh!!!

Whitebeard's swordsmanship could definitely be considered that of a great swordsman, the slash he made through the air instantly tore the ground in front of him.

At the same time as the slash tore a long trench in the ground.

It hit Manda's body.

Hiss.....

"Hisssssss!!!" Manda let out an unprecedented scream, but because its upper and lower jaws were both pierced by a ninja sword, that sword was still stuck in its mouth.

As a result, when Manda opened its mouth to scream, it also aggravated the injury to its mouth, causing Manda to almost cry out in pain.

The powerful slash shattered Manda's scales, let alone the more fragile bones and flesh.

You could see that one end of Manda's tail was directly cut open by the slash!

A large amount of blood gushed out from the gaping wound.

Whitebeard's sudden move attracted everyone's attention.

Here is the English translation of your text, rendered in a light novel-style:

"That man, he's made his move!" Tsunade forced herself not to look at Manda, she knew she couldn't stand the sight of blood gushing: "Katsuyu, no need to attack anymore, it's over."

"Oh?" Katsuyu laughed: "Alright."

Kakashi looked at Whitebeard's back with a complex expression, he saw that clean white cloak, fluttering in the wild wind.

"He's still as terrifying as ever!" Kakashi exclaimed in shock: 

"Jiraiya-sama, Tsunade-sama, Gamabunta, Katsuyu... all together, we temporarily couldn't severely injure Manda, but Whitebeard cut off its tail with one strike."

Kakashi saw a snake tail about ten meters long falling on the ground and rolling continuously, it seemed that the nerves in the snake tail hadn't died yet.

"Is this the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates?" Konan in the distance had been observing this battle.

"Orochimaru's summoned beast should have the power of a 'kage'." Konan murmured apprehensively: "Can he severely injure a 'kage' with one strike?"

Jiraiya hurriedly lowered his head, looking at Whitebeard below: "This... is this the 'Pops' Naruto recognizes?"

Although Jiraiya knew from some intelligence that Whitebeard was a giant, much taller than ordinary people.

But when he saw Whitebeard's burly and muscular figure with his own eyes.

Jiraiya was still shocked beyond words.

Gamabunta squinted a pair of frog eyes: "This strange human, when he pulled out his sword, it was like pulling out a feather... what kind of amazing strength is this?"

Shisui put away the hand sign, because he knew that as long as Pops made a move, he didn't need to do anything.

Kisame had the same reaction as Shisui.

Orochimaru's forehead couldn't help but sweat a few drops: "That man has made a move... oh no, Manda wouldn't have angered him, would he?"

Recalling the previous experience of fighting with Whitebeard.

Orochimaru felt a bit creepy.

"No good! I'm not his match even with Manda!" Orochimaru was already thinking about running away.

But just then, Orochimaru saw Whitebeard suddenly pose, the other's right fist was surrounded by a ball of white light.

Orochimaru's pupils suddenly shrank.

"Manda!!!"

"Run!!!"

It's hard to imagine that one of the three great ninjas would use such a terrified tone to yell at his summoned beast.
