Chapter 1606: Yamata no Orochi’s Delusion
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The commanding officer of Sakura Island was very angry. He could not believe that just when everything was about to succeed, an accident happened.
“Who is that Hua guy?! Why is there no information about him in intelligence? Do people in the intelligence department get paid for nothing? How could they not have gotten any information on a guy like this who is able to stop Yamata no Orochi?!”
His face turned even more livid as he watched the giant snake being violently beaten on the screen before him. Orochi was a very powerful mythical being of Sakura Island, and yet he was being suppressed by a Hua guy! The commanding officer could not stand such a thing!
The faces of many of the officers around were dark as well. They did not expect anything like this to happen, and they were anxious because they have no time to waste.
“Send out fighter jets! Put everything aside first… Ask our men to riddle that guy with bullet holes and then help Kame Orochi capture the Jewel!” the commanding officer gave the order with a cold face.
They had to end this before Hua’s reinforcement came. As long as they seized the opportunity and captured this spiritual energy sealing point, Sakura Island could rise to dominance in the future world with its spiritual energy fully recovered.
At the thought of this, the commanding officer’s eyes turned a little red.
…
One after another, the most advanced fighter jets shot up into the sky with fiery tails, filling the air with sonic booms. They streaked across the sky, leaving behind plumes of white smoke. Accompanied by a rumbling sound, five fighter jets flew in an arrowhead formation toward the cruise s.h.i.+p Jewel.
For fighter jets, thousands of kilometers were not far, so it did not take long for them to arrive. Upon reaching their destination, the pilots received orders from their commanders to pull the triggers.
Da! Da! Da!
The fighters’ muzzles spewed golden tongues of flame. Bullets flew out in rapid bursts, turning into long golden dragons as they shot toward the Hua man down below.
…
It was a shocking scene. The huge hand formed by the water was dragging the giant snake out of the sea. What kind of power was this? Why could it condense the seawater into the shape of a palm?
Yamata no Orochi was struggling in the palm, his tails las.h.i.+ng about like sharp swords. But he could not break free.
Standing in front of the deck, Yu Ge gasped as he watched. “Senior is indeed awesome… So what if Yamata no Orochi strikes? In Senior’s hands, he is nothing but a reptile!” He clenched his fists in excitement.
At this moment, the people on the s.h.i.+p had come to their senses. Many people were sucking in their breaths, but many more were excited. How could they not be excited? They thought they were dead, but suddenly, a young man who seemed like Superman appeared and blocked the monster for them!
This was perhaps the blessing of heaven, or it was just plain luck.
In any case, people were cheering. Once again, some people excitedly took out their mobile phones and began filming. It would be a shame not to capture such a tense scene.
Meanwhile, the superhumans on the s.h.i.+p could not quite believe what they saw. They wondered if the Immortal from Hua had made a move? Otherwise, how could he have the strength to hold back the mystical Orochi?
The monk’s face was a little pale. He had just used his supernatural ability to block the sound waves of the great snake, and as a result, he almost got seriously injured. Yamata no Orochi was just too fearsome, and that was exactly why he was so amazed. The snake, so powerful to him, was being played by the youth as if it were a little reptile!
‘Who is this young man?’ The monk glanced at Yu Ge, whose face was red with excitement. He recognized the latter as a Qi cultivator from the Immortal Island of Penglai. ‘Is that young man an Earth Immortal of Penglai?’
There were only a few Qi cultivator powers in Hua, and the only ones that could send Earth Immortals were Mount Longhu and Kunlun. However, neither of these powers took part in the voyage of the Jewel.
‘Who the h.e.l.l is this youth?’
Suddenly, the monk heard a vague rumbling sound. Frowning, he looked up at the distant sky and saw one fighter jet after another approaching at high speed. “Fighter jets?” he froze for a moment.
Not only him, but the Western superhumans also paused. “Why are there fighter jets? Which power sent them?” Doubts filled their hearts.
The fighter jets were closing in fast, filling the air with deafening sonic booms.
Many people on the cruise s.h.i.+p saw the planes. They were all dumbfounded, wondering why there were fighter jets here.
Bu Fang heard the rumbling too. He looked up in confusion and saw planes that appeared like big birds.
Just when everyone was surprised and puzzled by the appearance of these fighter jets, their muzzles suddenly spat out golden flames, accompanied by a shrill noise.
Da da da da da da da…
The flames joined in a long golden line as they closed in on Bu fang. A splas.h.i.+ng sound rang out as bullets. .h.i.t the sea and sent small columns of water up into the air.
At last, modern firearms joined the battle!
All the people onboard were stunned. When the bullets. .h.i.t the s.h.i.+p and made a clanging sound, only then did they come back to their senses and screamed.
Everyone knew that with firearms came death.
People began to run around frantically, no longer taking pictures or videos, rus.h.i.+ng toward the interior of the s.h.i.+p. As long as they were inside, the bullets could not hit them. For a moment, everyone ran wildly to seek shelters like panicked ants.
But they were not the target of the fighter jets. Therefore, these people were unharmed after hiding inside.
With the ordinary people hiding, the only ones left on the deck were the superhumans. As people with supernatural abilities, they might not be able to resist firearms, but they could dodge bullets, not to mention that they were not the target of the fighter jets either.
Xiao Ai’s face was pale, and she was very angry. “Shameless Sakura Island! They definitely planned this! First the Yamata brothers, then Yamata no Orochi, and now the fighter jets! They’re crazy!” She stomped her foot in anger.
Yu Ge, too, had a grave face, and there was fury surging in his eyes. Since ancient times, Qi cultivators had had no affection for Sakura Island. However, he could only hope that Bu Fang could handle that great snake under the attack of those fighter jets now.
Qi cultivators cultivated ‘Qi’, so their bodies were weak. As a result, they were not good at resisting firearms. If Bu Fang had to defend against those bullets while fighting the snake, he could easily fall into a pa.s.sive position.
Da da da da da!
The five fighter jets circled Bu Fang and kept strafing him. The barrage of bullets nearly drowned him.
Frowning, his body moved in small ranges, dodging all the bullets. He was a little angry. There was no doubt that the fighter jets were sent by the power behind Yamata no Orochi.
‘Are they trying to distract me from capturing my food ingredient?’
A chilly smile spread across Bu Fang’s lips. He just stood there and let the bullets. .h.i.t him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Everyone’s expression changed. Even an Earth Immortal would be in pain if he used his physical body to resist the bullets, right?
Xiao Ai’s pupils constricted, and her face turned pale. She had already informed Chief Luo of what had happened here. However, the signal was not very good at sea, so the transmission of information took a longer time.
‘What should we do? If Bu Fang is killed, Yamata no Orochi and the Sakura’s fighter jets will s.h.i.+ft their focus and target us!’
Suddenly, the people on the s.h.i.+p were stunned. They saw Bu Fang, who had been hit by bullets, move again! He was. .h.i.t by so many bullets, and yet he remained unharmed?
The hand condensed of the seawater had dispersed, and Yamata no Orochi had fallen back into the sea. Seemingly knowing that his support had arrived, the giant snake turned around and swooped toward Bu Fang with his mouths wide open.
‘This fellow still wants to fight back?’ Bu Fang was puzzled. ‘Who gave this snake his confidence? I can’t believe he dared to counter-attack! One of the three major delusions in a man’s life is to think he can fight back!’ The corners of his mouth twitched a little. ‘Does he think that he can beat me with just these fighter jets?’
Bu Fang’s eyes narrowed slightly. He had not taken it too seriously before, but now he did not want to hold back anymore. He stomped his foot on the sea surface. As if impacted by a tremendous force, the seawater caved in deeply. The next moment, Bu Fang shot up into the sky like a cannonball, targeting one of the fighter jets!
“What the f*ck!” The pilot’s pupils constricted as he hurriedly pulled the control stick up. The fighter jet began to climb higher, but Bu Fang was still walking beside it!
The pilot in the c.o.c.kpit widened his eyes and looked out the window at Bu Fang, the corner of his mouth twitching. Hurriedly, he pressed a b.u.t.ton, and the plane instantly accelerated at its top speed
Looking at the accelerating fighter jet, Bu Fang raised a hand and threw out a punch. The blow shattered the air, and the shattered air turned into an invisible projectile that raced toward the plane.
In the blink of an eye, the invisible cannonball hit the fighter jet. Its steel body dented, its wings twisted and broke, and then the whole plane exploded into pieces at high alt.i.tude.
The four remaining fighter jets turned around and quickly distanced themselves from Bu Fang. The next moment, Yamata no Orochi rushed out of the water, roaring. Bu Fang glanced at the great snake and stomped his foot on one of the heads.
Stunned, the giant snake was smashed back into the sea by the kick. ‘Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?’ For a moment, he was a little confused.
Bu Fang continued to swing his fist, compressing the air with each punch and firing air cannonb.a.l.l.s. The fighter jets performed a series of advanced maneuvers, but they were still hit by his punches. One plane after another fell from the sky, and their bullets had no effect on Bu Fang. This drove the pilots almost crazy.
“Is he still human?!”
Soon, all five fighter jets were brought down by Bu Fang and exploded into pieces. He descended from the sky. The great snake had just popped one of his heads up when Bu Fang kicked him back into the water with one leg.
Depressed, Yamata no Orochi pushed all his heads up. Bu Fang did not stand on ceremony with him. One slap at a time, he snapped off six of the seven remaining heads.
In the end, Yamata no Orochi was left with only one head.
Bu Fang raised his hand and scanned Yamata no Orochi’s body. Suddenly, his gaze locked on to a position—the flesh in this position was the best.
The giant snake shuddered. He felt a sense of panic and despair. What kind of monster had he encountered?!
With a ripping sound, a square piece of snake meat was pulled out by Bu Fang, floating in the air.
Yamata no Orochi howled miserably. His eight tails shot up and lashed at Bu Fang. This was a fatal blow from him!
Bu Fang’s eyes narrowed, flas.h.i.+ng with a cold gleam. The next moment, his divine sense exploded out, and the snake’s eight tails all burst apart!
The last head of the giant snake was filled with a look of fear. Bu Fang’s divine sense made him feel a terrifying pressure that seemed to come from the depths of the universe. The man before him was an absolute monster!
Yamata no Orochi knew that he could not escape today, but he still had a sure-fire way to kill! Though his eight tails were blown off, one of them was not blown to pieces. Suddenly, the bloodied and battered tail darted out, las.h.i.+ng at Bu Fang again!
This was his ultimate move! Among his eight tails, one of them hid one of the three great divine weapons, the Heavenly Clouds Sword! This was a sword that could kill G.o.ds!
“Die, d.a.m.ned human!” Yamata no Orochi’s face twisted madly. The Heavenly Clouds Sword was one of the three divine weapons of Sakura Island, and it also had a popular name: Kusanagi no Tsurugi.
The air was filled with sword energy. Bu Fang, examining the snake meat in his hand, narrowed his eyes. He looked up slightly and saw a glint of the sword out of the corner of his eye. He was surprised by the great snake’s madness.
Suddenly, Yamata no Orochi’s crazy actions came to an abrupt end, and his eyes grew wider and wider. He saw… The divine weapon, Kusanagi no Tsurugi, was caught between Bu Fang’s fingers.
