It even formed visible energy currents, blowing away the gravel and dust on the ground!
Orochimaru, who had been wearing a mocking expression, finally showed a hint of genuine surprise when he sensed this familiar yet powerful aura in his golden snake eyes.
He then uttered a complex emotion: "Oh? It's Sage Mode... That's quite unexpected."
"That idiot Jiraiya, he even taught you this trump card without holding back?"
But he quickly regained his composure and sneered, "However, this is within my expectations."
"After all, I can roughly guess what that guy will teach you."
"He spares no effort in his dedication to his students."
As if to confirm Orochimaru's words, almost at the same time that Naruto completed his Sage Mode enhancement.
The mechanical Naruto on the other side has also undergone an amazing change!
A series of rapid mechanical sounds rang out, and the mechanical Naruto's body structure began to change rapidly!
Its back armor opened, revealing a complex energy-projection structure;
Even more horrifying is its position in the rump.
It suddenly unleashed six crimson tails composed entirely of highly condensed, ferocious dragon vein chakra!
Each tail thrashed wildly like a living python, exuding a destructive aura!
At the same time, the metal armor on its face was lifted up, revealing an even more ferocious internal structure underneath.
The simulated mouth opened, emitting a silent roar, and the entire form transformed into an attack posture, like a wild beast crouching on the ground!
Although it lacked the red chakra cloak, that form, that wild and savage posture—
Naruto would never admit his mistake!
"They even have this?!"
Naruto gasped in shock, his face filled with horror.
That was clearly the way he looked when he went berserk after Gaara's death and reached the Six-Tails state!
Orochimaru actually collected and perfectly replicated this kind of data into this war machine?!
"I've said it before, it has all your data."
Orochimaru's voice was tinged with cold smugness: "From your most basic taijutsu to the Rasengan, and all the stages..."
"Aside from Sage Mode, which was slightly unexpected, that's about it."
"In the face of absolute power and perfect design, this little variable cannot change anything."
"Roar--!!!"
As if to release the raging energy within him, the mechanical Naruto let out a deafening roar, a mixture of metallic friction and the roar of energy.
With a powerful leap from his limbs, he transformed into a crimson afterimage, carrying six destructive tails, and madly pounced on Naruto!
"Immortal method: Super large jade spiral pill!"
Naruto didn't back down at all. He used both hands simultaneously to instantly condense two huge Sage Art Rasengans and smashed them hard against his opponent!
Boom! ! ! !
Sage Chakra clashed violently with the raging Dragon Vein Chakra!
The explosion's light instantly illuminated the entire night sky, and the shockwave blew a large section of the palace's remaining dome off!
The battle broke out again, but on a completely different level!
When Naruto enters Sage Mode, his strength, speed, perception, and ninjutsu power all experience a qualitative leap!
His movements became more agile, his predictions more accurate, and each attack contained the terrifying power of natural energy!
After the mechanical Naruto enters the "pseudo-Six-Tails" state, his attacks become even wilder, more ferocious, and reckless!
The six dragon vein chakra tails were like giant whips, lashing, sweeping, and thrusting wildly, each attack causing the earth to shake!
It can even spew out highly compressed dragon vein chakra cannons from its mouth, just like a real tailed beast!
For a time, the man and the machine were locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle!
With the boost from Sage Mode and his extensive combat experience, Naruto constantly dodged the deadly tail attacks, looking for opportunities to counterattack.
Mechanical Naruto relies on absolute power, an incredibly sturdy body, an inexhaustible supply of energy, and a fearless fighting style.
Forcibly breaking through Naruto's defenses, each collision caused Naruto's blood and qi to surge violently.
Blue magical light and crimson dragon vein energy collided, intertwined, and exploded wildly in the ruins!
The scene was incredibly intense, far exceeding the scope of ordinary ninja battles.
However, as time went by, Naruto's heart sank.
While Sage Mode is powerful, it requires continuous absorption of natural energy to maintain. Otherwise, if the natural energy used to maintain it becomes unbalanced, Sage Mode will automatically deactivate.
He could feel the natural energy around his cheeks slowly decreasing, and the replenishment of Sage Chakra was beginning to fall behind the consumption.
That mechanical monster has no concept of fatigue!
It is connected to the dragon vein by some unknown means, and its energy is almost limitless!
Its attacks have not weakened at all; on the contrary, they have become more cunning and efficient due to the continuous accumulation of combat data!
With the balance of power shifting, Naruto gradually began to fall into a disadvantageous position.
After a hard-hitting exchange of punches, Naruto's arm went numb from the impact, and he staggered backward.
A crimson chakra whip swept across, and although he narrowly dodged it, the resulting wind pressure still left a bloody mark on his face.
Mechanical Naruto seized an opening and suddenly lunged forward, his iron fist, covered in Dragon Vein Chakra, slamming hard into Naruto's crossed arms in defense!
A faint yet clear sound of bone cracking rang out!
Naruto groaned in pain as he was once again sent flying, crashing heavily into a pile of rubble amidst billowing dust.
The eyeshadow in Sage Mode started to blur, clearly nearing its limit.
Amidst the smoke and dust, the mechanical Naruto's red-glowing eyes were fixed on him.
Six crimson tails, like giant pythons ready to devour their prey, slowly rose.
Orochimaru stood at a distance, a cruel smile of impending victory on his face.
"It seems the game is almost over, Naruto-kun."
Chapter 323 Ban: A scruffy fox! Listen to me!
Amidst the ruins, Naruto struggled to stand up, but the excruciating pain in his right arm and the weakness of running out of Sage Chakra made him hesitate.
On the other side, the red light in the eyes of the mechanical Naruto, who had entered pseudo-Six-Tails form, surged.
Six raging dragon vein chakra tails rose high, gathering destructive energy, poised to deliver a fatal blow!
Orochimaru's lips curled into a triumphant smile.
At this critical moment——
"Chidori Sharp Spear!"
A cold and sharp shout rang out like a thunderclap!
It was accompanied by the cacophony of thousands of birds' sharp, chorus.
A dazzling, highly concentrated blue-white lightning bolt.
Like a lightning spear tearing through the night sky, it struck the mechanical Naruto's body from the side at a speed beyond visual perception!
A deafening clap of thunder and a metallic, crackling explosion rang out simultaneously!
The sturdy metal body, strong enough to withstand a spiral shuriken, was actually blasted into a large dent by this extremely concentrated lightning.
The massive body was lifted off the ground uncontrollably, flying backward and crashing heavily into the broken walls and ruins in the distance, stirring up a cloud of dust!
The impending fatal attack was forcibly interrupted.
This sudden and incredibly powerful attack even surprised Orochimaru, who was determined to win.
A genuine surprise flashed in the golden snake eyes: "Oh? It was actually able to repel my masterpiece in this state? This power..."
His gaze shifted to the direction from which the lightning had come. The smoke and dust slowly dissipated, revealing a tall and slender figure.
Her black, wispy hair swayed slightly in the aftershocks of energy, her pale skin contrasting sharply with her scarlet eyes.
In those eyes, three tomoe were slowly rotating, radiating a chilling aura.
But what's even more striking is that around those Sharingan eyes, there's a ring of orange-red eyeshadow similar to Naruto's.
The pupils also took on a toad-like horizontal stripe shape!
"Sage mode?"
Orochimaru's surprise turned into understanding and amusement: "So it's Sasuke-kun."
"I didn't expect you to have mastered this power as well. It's truly a pleasant surprise. However..."
His gaze fell on Sasuke's face.
The magical eyeshadow was visibly fading and disappearing at a rapid pace.
His pupils also returned to their normal scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan appearance.
"...It seems you're still quite unskilled at it. You couldn't even sustain it after just one strike?"
"Isn't it a little too late?"
Sasuke took a slight breath, feeling the natural energy rapidly fading from his body and the resulting slight weakness.
His brow furrowed: "As expected, it lasted too short."
During his training at Mount Myōboku, his progress in mastering Sage Mode lagged far behind Naruto's.
Forcibly entering Sage Mode is not only difficult, but also extremely difficult to maintain, and consumes a huge amount of energy.
But he immediately steadied his breathing, twirled the Kusanagi sword in his hand, flashing with sharp lightning, and pointed the tip of the sword at Orochimaru without fear.
The voice was icy cold: "As long as we can kill you here, everything can still be salvaged!"
