Chapter 183 The Wonderful Use of the Orochi Style Substitution Technique

Now that we've decided to use this blue skill learning card, there's no reason to waste any more time.

Guided by his will, the skill learning card shattered and transformed into a stream of light that entered the scroll, causing the scroll to glow with a blue light.

Uchiha Gen placed his hand on the scroll, and the blue light on it immediately dimmed, as if it had been absorbed by him.

In an instant, a flood of information rushed into his mind, causing Uchiha Gen to stand still and close his eyes for more than ten seconds before recovering.

"This technique also references some principles of medical ninjutsu. By stimulating the cells of the snake-like body, a thick outer membrane resembling snake skin is quickly generated on the body surface in advance to take the hits for the main body. This technique can be used to avoid attacks that cannot be dodged or those that are attached to the body."

Just like in the battle between the Sasuke and Itachi brothers in the original timeline, Sasuke used the Orochi Style Substitution Technique to escape from the Amaterasu flames.

Alternatively, this technique can also be used to break free from almost all binding ninjutsu except sealing techniques. For example, the Nara clan's Shadow Imitation Technique. When prepared, one only needs to activate the Orochi Style Substitution Technique when the body is bound by a shadow, and only a snake skin will be controlled, allowing the real body to escape easily. This undoubtedly increases the margin for error in battle.

With a thought, Uchiha Gen's body was suddenly torn open from the middle, like a layer of skin, and a new Uchiha Gen emerged from the wet, sticky fluid.

His Yang Release technique is powerful, and his medical ninjutsu skills have reached the top level of the world. He can stimulate the snake body to generate snake skin at an extremely fast speed, which is an advantage that Orochimaru does not have. The only advantage that Orochimaru has over Uchiha Gen in this technique is that his snake body modification has been going on for several years, and his snake transformation is more profound.

While the pre-cast animation of the Orochi Style Substitution Technique wasn't so minor as to be negligible for Gen Uchiha, the Sharingan's perception allowed him to anticipate it in advance, enabling him to activate it promptly when needed.

"Even though my snake body modification is not as advanced as Orochimaru's, it is still very advanced, and I have a higher amount of chakra, so I can use this technique regularly."

Furthermore, the flexibility derived from the snake's body can be used to achieve an effect similar to shrinking bones, allowing the body to shrink beneath the skin, evade attacks, and then launch a surprise attack on the enemy, or—”

After a moment's thought, Uchiha Gen recalled Orochimaru's use of this technique and resumed the experiment.

After the snake shed its skin, what emerged from the Orochi Style Substitution Technique this time was not Uchiha Gen's original body, but a thick, large snake that emerged from its mouth and spat out the original body.

The snake spits at me, I spits at the snake, the snake spits at me again, I spits at the snake again, and finally the snake can even spit out a sword.

Orochimaru's nesting doll technique can also be replicated after he learns the Orochimaru-style substitution technique.

This move is actually a combination of the Orochi-ryu Substitution Technique and the Reverse Summoning Technique. The main body uses the Reverse Summoning Technique to reach Ryuchi Cave while inside the snake skin, leaving a snake at the original location as an anchor point, and then having this snake summon the main body back. This achieves the effect of "I spit out the snake, and the snake spits out me," which is almost enough to avoid all attacks.

The only drawback is that during the time he was resurrected to Ryuchi Cave, the summoning snake lacked sufficient combat capabilities. If the enemy targeted the snake during this period, then he would be at a disadvantage once Uchiha Gen came out.

Therefore, while this move is effective and has a higher potential for survival, it is more important to consider the timing of its use.

"I wonder how things are going with Orochimaru-sensei."

Uchiha Gen waved his hand to release the snake from its summoning, lifted the curtain, and looked out at the camp, which was filled with a tense atmosphere from the inside out.

Only now does he dare to say that he has the confidence to not worry about being killed.

With his combat prowess, which barely places him in the top tier of the ninja world, and his exceptional survival skills, as long as he avoids falling victim to the Six Paths Ninja Tools, he won't have to worry about anyone being able to kill him in the next one or two decades, in this era where Kage-level combat power is not yet prominent.

The sense of urgency that has been weighing on my mind can finally be relieved a little.

"However, it's not time to give up and relax yet."

Uchiha Gen stretched, lowered the curtain, cleaned himself up, and then packed up the remaining soldier rations.

He prepared more than thirty soldier pills that incorporated his own blood.

This number is quite large, mainly because he has a lot of blood.

He had just used a few, and he planned to keep a few for himself and give the rest away.

Orochimaru, Mikoto Uchiha, and Sarutobi Enjun and Ruri Uzuki, whom we haven't seen for a while.

These were the few people on the Land of Hot Water who cared about his safety.

With these items, they would have a better chance of survival on this perilous battlefield.

Especially Orochimaru's side.

With this specially made soldier's ration pill, and with his near-perfect snake body modification combined with the Orochi-ryu Substitution Technique, he might be able to reach the fourth Rashomon gate like him, sign a contract with it, and increase his strength.

As for this thing, Uchiha Gen couldn't explain its origin with any other reason. He could only say that he found the materials himself and put a lot of effort into making it.

Given Orochimaru's thirst for knowledge, he would likely try to find out why these soldier pills have such powerful effects, and it's inevitable that he would use them for experiments.

Although Uchiha Gen was somewhat confident in the skills he inherited from Tsunade, he also knew that while Orochimaru was proficient in biotechnology, his expertise in pharmacology was only decent, not first-rate. Unless someone else skilled in this field helped him, it wouldn't be easy to decipher the secrets of this soldier's ration pill.

Uchiha Gen couldn't explain why he suddenly had a physique comparable to Tang Sanzang's flesh, that biting into flesh could have such a miraculous effect, so this was the only method he could come up with.

However, this means that these military ration pills must be described as extremely precious.

"Soldier pills with rapid healing effects? There are only so many in the entire ninja world? This stuff is too valuable, Gen! The mission you're going to undertake is much more dangerous than mine, I can't accept it."

After listening to Uchiha Gen's explanation, Mikoto reached out with both hands and pushed the medicine box back.

"It's alright, I still have some here, and I'll give some more to Orochimaru-sensei later, so I have enough on hand."

However, you should also be aware that these soldier pills can only be used four times in a short period of time. Otherwise, the balance of chakra in your body will be disrupted, causing internal injuries due to the conflict.

"Four times?"

Mikoto Uchiha tilted her head in confusion, wondering if she had misheard.

Ordinary soldier rations cannot be taken continuously in a short period of time, and even the Nara clan's soldier rations cannot be taken three times in a short period of time.
