Helping Out A Bit

Landing right in front of the soldiers, I looked at them calmly while waiting for them to get into formation.

"Foul Intruder! We have been ordered by Lord Orochi to apprehend you at once! Surrender, now!" One of the soldiers exclaimed.

"Where is he? he should be on his way right about now..." I asked out loud.

If Orochi had already informed Kaidou of what had happened, then he should have already been on the way trying to find me. Even if he didn't know who I was exactly.

"I don't know who you're talking about! Surrender, now!!" The soldier barked while pointing his halberd at me.

I spread my Observation Haki around me, trying to detect any new presences that had happened to be closing in on our location. Unfortunately, there wasn't any signs of him closing in.

"Looks like I'll have to go pay him a visit myself," I remarked, slowly unsheathing my axe from my back.

The soldier's tensed as they saw my axe glimmer malevolently. I raised my foot before kicking the ground, simultaneously phasing through the soldiers and lopping their heads off while doing so.

I stopped a bit of a distance behind them, before slowly walking off back towards the capital. I wanted to pay Orochi another visit first before heading over to Kaidou.

The sun was high in the sky as I entered the capital. The residents and passerby's looked at me wearily as I casually made my way back to the castle.

Eventually, soldiers slowly began moving towards me cautiously as they watched me moving back to the castle. 

Breaking in the main doors of the castle. I slowly walked towards where I had been sensing Orochi currently was. The soldiers who had been following me when I had been in town had also followed me into the caste. They all had weary and tense expressions as they followed me through the countless corridors that had happened to be within the castle.

Eventually, I burst into the show room of the castle. 

Sitting in front of me was none other than Orochi. Instead of seeing him butt-ass naked, this time he was fully clothed and had been surrounded by numerous Geishas and beautiful women as they played music and fed the man.

That all came to a stop the moment I broke in.

Orochi's eyes immediately turned from angry to fearful the moment he laid eyes on me. He squealed a bit before raising his finger and pointing it at me. 

"G-Guards!! Get him!!!"

The soldiers hesitated for a while before pointing their weapons at me.

I sighed before drawing my axe. My purpose here was merely to deliver a promise, one that I hoped I didn't need to fulfill myself.

With a lofty swing, all the heads of the guards immediately soared as blood came out of them like a gushing fountain. The Geishas, along with Orochi, screamed in horror as they watched the bodies of the soldier dropped. However, I wasn't done with them just yet, I started walking towards Orochi; who slowly skidded back bit by bit as he tried to stay away from me.

A blue barrier immediately enveloped him as he reached the wall. Looking at the barrier, it was easy to tell who it was.

That same old man who had miraculously stopped Oden from killing Orochi was now standing in my way. That was something that I had no plans of tolerating, I immediately turned my gaze towards the old man and woman, before making my way towards the two of them.

"H-hiekk!!"

Raising my axe, I wasted no time landing my axe on the barrier. The old man immediately raised his barrier as we clashed. An shockwave immediately spread, splitting the entire room in two as I tried to go through the barrier.

"One thing I'll give about that barrier fruit ability....it's incredibly sturdy," I muttered as I saw the barrier remain completely unscathed.

"But, it's not like I don't know its weakness either..."

Raising my axe, I made it look like I was going to attack the barrier again, but instead, I immediately covered my axe with Armament Haki and let out a Haki slash at Orochi.

The old man's eyes widened as he tried to put down the barrier to care for Orochi's, but its too late.

Orochi's head immediately fell out of him, and the old man's barrier was down. I immediately took advantage of the situation and lopped the old man's head off immediately before he had the time to cover himself with the barrier again.

Blood splattered on my face as his necked gushed out a lot of blood. The Old lady's face immediately turned to horror as she immediately backed away from the fresh corpse, but I wasn't done with her either.

She tried turning into a bat so that she could fly away, but I summoned a dragon head before it rushed and swallowed the bat hole.

"Dammit, I need to stop doing that....I feel like a cannibal..." I muttered before turning to Orochi's corpse.

The Geishas had huddled to the corner of the room and were all quietly shuddering in fear. I ignored them before turning to where Orochi lay. I already knew that the man had nine lives, so it would take me killing him nine times to actually kill him, but I wasn't here for all of that.

'If Oden actually fucking dies after everything I've done.....he deserves it'

Turning towards the sudden troop of ninjas that had just appeared, I stood calmly as I waited for them to come up with a reaction. 

"Don't worry, that moron is far from dead, he's probably just faking it."

Fukurokuju looked at me nervously before turning to Orochi. His body was still lying on the floor, bleeding while all of this was happening. 

"Get up, before I make your 'death' permanent," I said coldly.

Orochi's motionless body twitched, before seven big snake heads began emerging from his body. The rest of his body grew scales before getting on all his four limbs and turning to me.

"I'll kill you!!!" Orochi remarked hatefully before raising his heads to attack.

"Watch your mouth," I replied coldly as I let out the full brunt of my Conqueror's Haki.

The Geishas along with the subordinate ninjas immediately passed out. Meanwhile, Fukurokuju and Orochi immediately fell to the ground, almost as if the gravity within the castle had increased two fold as a result.

"You should be thankful that this is all that I'm doing, if it were up to me. I'd have killed the both of you and be done with this, but I don't want to hurt Oden's pride....." I explained, "if Oden doesn't win after this handicap....I'll be really pissed off."

After letting out my Conqueror's Haki sit there for a while, I let off the pressure and looked at the duo as they slowly began to recollect themselves. Both their faces were pale as hell, almost as if they hadn't been breathing for a while.

With that, I grew my wings before taking to the skies. My next destination was Onigashima, I had a few choice words for Kaidou.
