Chapter 8 Water Breathing, Natural Energy

  On the surface of the lake, the lamp **** sank down to his waist and abdomen, placed the grass pheasant sword on his left waist, held the handle of the knife with his right hand, and assumed the posture of drawing the sword.

  In consciousness, Orochimaru was fully focused, and his attention was completely focused on the changes in his body.

  In the mouth of the lamp god, the variety of weapons in the ninja world is a manifestation of many but not good, but the ninja world is not without ninjas who are good at using swords, and there are many powerful sword moves.

  For example, Hatake Sakumo, who has achieved the reputation of "White Fang" with Konoha-ryu swordsmanship, and Senshou Himama, who is good at one-hit kills and Flying Raijinzhan...

  Oshemaru thinks he knows a little bit, and can't wait to appreciate the swordsmanship in another world.

   "Water Breathing..."

  Deng Shenbai clenched his teeth tightly, and a strong suction burst out from his mouth. In front of him, a swirling air flow was visible to the naked eye, rushing forward and backward into his throat.

  In an instant, Orochimaru felt his chest cavity swell, and his lungs began to desperately swallow oxygen.

   "Boom boom boom..."

  The heart beats like a battle drum, with the lungs as the source, every drop of oxygen-filled blood is like a charging soldier, and starts to rush faster.

   Orochimaru could feel his physical fitness rising rapidly.

  From the outside, Orochimaru's figure seemed to have swelled, and every capillary was clearly visible on the fair skin.

  Oshemaru wanted to exhale, but his body was controlled by the lamp god.

   And the lamp **** is still inhaling, and he is imprinting a habit called breathing method on this body in an extremely rough way.

  Breathing method is the foundation of swordsmanship, and every move does not require the strong physical support provided by breathing method.

  Now, Orochimaru somewhat understands the scaremongering of the lamp god.

  The practice of this breathing method obviously does not happen overnight, the body needs to adapt, and the process may last for several years.

   And it takes him a few minutes or more than ten minutes to walk the road of others for several years. It is conceivable how much pressure the body has to bear.

   The shortcut is really not so easy to take.

   Just when Orochimaru thought he was going to be burst by oxygen, his body moved.

   Followed by a series of sword moves like landslide and tsunami.

   "Water breathing, one stroke, one stroke!"

   "..."

   "Water Breathing, Six Styles, Reversing the Whirlpool!"

   "..."

   "Water breathing, ten styles, life and life flow!"

  …

  Chakra is integrated into the Grass Pheasant Sword, one stroke after another, and the cycle goes back and forth, creating surging waves on the calm lake.

  The two people peeking upright on the shore looked at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes, and it was even deeper than Kakashi's.

  Family education, Kakashi has a deep understanding of Konoha swordsmanship and even Ninja swordsmanship.

  In his opinion, or this is the consensus of all ninjas, fencing is the art of killing people, and it is no different from shuriken throwing, ninjutsu, detonating charms...

For close combat, Kunai and Taijutsu are stronger, then use Taijutsu; for long-range sneak attack, interference, shuriken and detonating charms are effective, then use Detonating Talisman; when facing a large group of enemies, use Ninjutsu to open the scene .

  Ninjas have many methods and are omnipotent, using every attack method in the most suitable position.

  Kakashi has always regarded the third generation as the benchmark for ninjas, because no matter what kind of enemy they face, the third generation can find a suitable means of attack.

   Today, however, he sees a pole on another road.

  The swordsmanship performed by Orochimaru is at odds with the swordsmanship of the ninja world, and even with the usual understanding of ninjas.

   Close combat? Eat my sword!

   Remote interference? Eat my sword!

   Attacking groups of enemies? Eat my sword!

  Swordsmanship is such an inconvenience!

  Kakashi saw a whole set of swordsmanship in Orochimaru's moves.

  Before this, all he saw was just sword moves.

  Even his father is just a ninja with strong melee sword skills, not a swordsman.

   "So strong."

   Kai muttered to himself.

  He doesn't have Kakashi's knowledge reserves, so he doesn't know how this is different from ninja swordsmanship, but he can see one thing.

  The swordsmanship displayed by Orochimaru is very restrained, there is no trace of chakra wasted in every gesture, and all the power is condensed on one sword.

  If this kind of control can be learned, it will be of great benefit to his physical skills.

  Kai scratched his head, wondering if Master Orochimaru still lacked a disciple.

  Uh... It doesn't matter if there is no shortage, he will work hard, and he will definitely be able to impress Master Orochimaru.

  …

"breathe…"

"breathe…"

  The body gradually adapted, and the sword moves became more proficient.

  With a sword in hand, I have the world!

  As a witness, Orochimaru's understanding and feelings are deeper than Kakashi and Kai.

  The swordsmanship that has developed to the peak is really extraordinary, and what the lamp **** said is not only not exaggerated, but also moderately restrained.

   Orochimaru can feel that, through the operation of the breathing method, Kusanagi Sword has a special energy besides chakra.

   And it was this kind of energy that raised the attack power of the sword move to a higher level. Before the end of the sword move, it was able to compete with shadow-level powerhouses.

  You must know that at this time, he has been taught ninjutsu in the field, and the chakra in his body is no more than the level of the middle ninja, and in terms of the original physical fitness, he can only barely reach the level of the ninja.

  This level of hardware is actually able to compete with a shadow-level powerhouse in a short period of time, 'Water Breathing' is simply unbelievable.

  So, when the sword move is completely memorized in the mind, Orochimaru will use it for two purposes, and divide part of his consciousness to detect the energy on the Kusanagi sword and pry into the powerful secret.

  However, as soon as the contact was made, a tranquil and soft artistic conception instantly engulfed the consciousness of Orochimaru, and spread along the road towards the source.

   Orochimaru seemed to have been enchanted by an illusion, and he didn't even care about his swordsmanship, and his sanity began to gradually get lost.

  If it is allowed to continue, Orochimaru's consciousness will be completely annihilated.

"Ah…"

  Deng Shen sneered, and the laughter sounded like thunder in the depths of Orochimaru's consciousness, instantly awakening Orochimaru from the lost state.

   "It's almost, just a little bit closer, I'm going to achieve the host's first kill achievement, it's still the funniest kind."

   Orochimaru ignored the ridicule of the lamp god, and said in surprise, "Could it be natural energy attached to the sword?"

   "Maybe."

  Deng Shen was noncommittal, "But it shouldn't be the same kind as you imagined."

   Orochimaru fell silent and fell into deep thinking.

  As the lamp **** said, the energy on the Grass Pheasant Sword is of the same origin and different from the natural energy of the Longdi Cave. It is very pure without any impurities.

   That's why he didn't recognize it the first time.

   Having impurities is not all a bad thing, although distortion will occur on the body, but at least you can master the magic of immortality.

   And this kind of consciousness is just realized for a moment, and the consciousness seems to be lost in nature, which is simply beyond the grasp of human beings.

  However, the swordsmanship of another world gave him a reference idea.

  They carry natural energy with their swords, so can I apply natural energy with the help of external objects?

   Orochimaru couldn't wait to try it.

   "Don't be so troublesome, there is still the last move that has not been tested." The corner of the lamp god's mouth slightly curled up, "If it is successfully used, you also have the opportunity to use natural energy."
