Chapter 1449 Divine Art 'Mark'

Chapter 1449 Divine Art 'Mark'

In Orochimaru's underground palace.

"what!"

Orochimaru, who was absorbing the divine art, groaned with pleasure.

The divine art that was awakened by the experimental subjects in the second ritual he prepared was called "Marking", which was another conceptual divine art.

To put it simply, as long as the magic 'mark' launched by the caster hits the target, any subsequent ninjutsu, illusion, or even physical technique released by the caster with a specific direction will hit the target!

When Orochimaru learned about this divine technique, he was also secretly surprised.

Because once he mastered this magic, the battle would become very simple, and the ninjas' 'flash body technique', 'shadow clone technique', 'substitute technique' and other means of dodging attacks would become ineffective. So he did not delay for a moment and immediately attacked the experimental subject.

The test subject, who was being strangled by Orochimaru, begged for mercy: "Please, spare me!"

Orochimaru came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Why would I kill you? Just be patient, it will be over soon!"

The experimental subject had no choice but to continue begging.

Orochimaru remained unmoved and continued to greedily absorb the awakened divine arts of the experimental subject.

After a while, Orochimaru threw the unconscious experimental subject aside and began to stretch his muscles.

Yakushi Kabuto, who was waiting nearby, came forward and said, "Lord Orochimaru, is it over?"

Orochimaru nodded: "Well, let's get rid of him!"

Pharmacist Kabuto stopped talking nonsense and silently took the unconscious experimental subject away.

Orochimaru felt the surging power in his body, with a smile on his face.

His magic skill 'Absorption' can not only absorb other people's magic skills into his own body, but also enhance his basic abilities while absorbing the magic skills.

Initially, he had only awakened the magic art of 'absorption', and his combat power was actually comparable to that of Owl who had also awakened the magic art. In fact, because 'absorption' was not a combat-type magic art, his overall combat power was slightly inferior to that of Owl who had awakened the magic art of 'transformation'.

But after absorbing the divine art 'Claw Mark', his combat power surpassed that of ordinary experimental subjects.

For example, in the battle with Yamada Shigeichi, Yamada Shigeichi, who was in the process of awakening the divine art 'Giant Strength', was led by the nose almost throughout the whole battle. In the end, he didn't even know that his own divine art was absorbed, and he lost miserably.

After absorbing the divine art 'Giant Strength' and mastering three divine arts, Orochimaru has completely surpassed the level of the experimental subject. According to the general experimental subject's roughly 'Six Paths' combat power, Orochimaru who mastered three divine arts can be regarded as surpassing the 'Six Paths' level.

By now, Orochimaru had absorbed the divine art 'Mark', and the number of divine arts he had mastered reached an astonishing four, and his strength had soared again.

Orochimaru thought to himself: "I should be able to fight him now!"

Whenever he thought of this question, he would feel confused, because until this moment he didn't know what Uchiha Shinji's true strength was, so it was difficult to accurately judge who was stronger between him and Shinji.

"We must act!" Orochimaru made up his mind after changing his mind.

Regardless of whether he can defeat Shinji now, the current situation is clear. The research institute has suspended the ceremony and began to thoroughly investigate the anomalies in the ceremony, so his secret is likely to be exposed. Because Yamada Shigeichi is a fool, but Shinji and Amado are not stupid. In his opinion, as long as the research institute conducts an in-depth investigation, the fact that Yamada Shigeichi's magic was secretly absorbed by him will definitely not be concealed.

In addition, Ichiro Fuma also concealed the magic from the research institute. If the research institute finds out, he, as a test subject, will most likely be implicated and attracted attention.

Since being exposed was inevitable, he decided to rush to the research institute directly, absorb Fuma Ichiro's magic first, and then find a chance to absorb the magic of Aida and Damon. As long as he could absorb the magic of these three people, the number of magic he mastered would reach an astonishing seven.

If he was unsure if he could defeat Shinji when he mastered four divine arts, then he was confident that he could easily defeat Shinji after mastering seven divine arts.

Orochimaru was a man of action. Having made up his mind, he did not hesitate and directly activated the "Claw Mark" and quietly returned to the research institute.

When he arrived at the testing area, he saw Fuma Ichiro competing with Sasuke on the testing field.

Perhaps it was because the last competition between Fuma Ichiro and Naruto affected too large a range of areas, damaging a large number of instruments and airships, and the research institute was unable to collect much valid data. So this time, under Amado's repeated warnings, Fuma Ichiro and Sasuke both suppressed their own chakras and simply competed in physical skills on the test field.

Logically speaking, this kind of competition is very beneficial to Sasuke who possesses the 'Six Magatama Samsara Eye', because the insight of the eye-jutsu bloodline ninja is overwhelming that of ordinary ninjas. However, Fuma Ichiro fought back and forth with Sasuke, and even suppressed Sasuke with his advantages in speed and strength.

"Amazing!"

"It seems that Fuma Ichiro is stronger than Yamada Shigeichi!"

"As expected of a ninja from the Ninja clan!"

The testers were whispering on the sidelines.

Listening to the conversation between the testers, Orochimaru chuckled.

Ichiro Fuma is much stronger than Shigeichi Yamada. Under normal circumstances, the experimental subject should not be a true 'Six Paths level' opponent, but the strength displayed by Ichiro Fuma completely suppressed Naruto and Sasuke. In Orochimaru's opinion, he is almost at the level of himself after absorbing the divine art 'Claw Marks', or even higher.

Bang.
With a dull thud, Sasuke was punched on the shoulder, and Sasuke also kicked Fuma Ichiro's arm.

Then both sides retreated.

It looked like both sides hit each other and it was a draw, but Sasuke was hit in the shoulder, while Fuma Ichiro was only kicked in the arm. The extent of the injuries was completely different, so Sasuke spat lightly and looked very annoyed.

After finishing the test, Ichiro Fuma said hello to the testers and returned to the underground rest area alone.

Orochimaru followed with a gloomy face.

Ichiro Fuma's strength was somewhat unexpected, so he had to go all out, because if something went wrong, not to mention absorbing Ichiro Fuma's magic, it would be hard to say whether he could escape. After all, in addition to Ichiro Fuma, there were four other "Six Paths level" fighters in the research institute: Sasuke, Naruto, Aida, and Dimon.

Although he was very confident in himself, he was not sure about his chances when facing the siege of five people.

Following all the way, Orochimaru followed Fuma Ichiro to the underground rest area. At the corner of the passage, when Orochimaru was about to launch a sneak attack, he found that Fuma Ichiro was quietly waiting for him at the other end of the corner with a strange smile on his face.
