The Adventurous Gamer Ninja - Daichi Hekima [Vol. 02]

Chapter 383 - Battle: Daichi vs Orochimaru

After releasing the Tier 01 seal, the Gamer ninja felt immense chakra flood his body. The system showed him the boost in power he had obtained.

'So much power. It's as if I have a boundless amount of energy coursing through me.' Daichi looked at his body and felt the raw energy surge through every muscle and tendon in his arm.

The world seemed to slow around him, and the air thrummed with power. He remembered what Tsunade had said shortly before he completed his training under her.

'It's going to be difficult to control the excess chakra the first time. So you need to be careful. But once you get the feel of it, using that power after releasing the seal will become second nature to you.'

The Genin clenched his fist a couple times and moved his arms slightly. His brain quickly noted the power increase in the muscles and thanks to the high dexterity, Daichi was able to instantaneously adapt to the boost in strength.

'This is a bit beyond what I imagined.' He was a touch surprised by the magnitude of his own strength.

For a moment, the battlefield was eerily still. Jiraiya and Kakashi looked on from their vantage, both fully aware that something monumental was about to happen. Their hearts pounded in sync, even as they tried to maintain composure.

Orochimaru stood a short distance away and his expression showed an uncertainty. His yellow, reptilian eyes flickered with something akin to anxiety. An exceedingly rare look for the Snake Sannin. He saw the boy turn his head and look at him but before he could make any plans, Daichi disappeared.

Without warning, the Leaf Genin vanished from his spot, the space he once occupied warped with the aftershock of his movement. In that very instant, he reappeared directly in front of Orochimaru.

A gust of wind blasted outward from the force of Daichi's chakra, kicking up dust and debris that swirled around them in a violent cloud. Orochimaru's eyes widened in alarm and his muscles tensed on instinct, but he was too slow.

Daichi drove his fist clean into Orochimaru's face, and the impact resounded like a thunderclap splitting the sky.

A shockwave erupted from the impact.

The potent shockwave threw chunks of rock and spears of dirt into the air. The sheer force of the punch made the ground caved in beneath Orochimaru and Daichi's bodies, forming a large crater around them.

Daichi angled the force of his punch downwards and slammed the Snake Sannin into the ground face first.

BOOM!

As Daichi kept forcing more power into his punch, the Sannin was driven deeper into the ground. The massive force unleashed by the Genin broke the stones beneath the both of them further and expanded the crater with an explosion of rock and dust.

The ground all around them trembled as if an earthquake was happening.

"This is insane," Jiraiya exclaimed, his voice barely audible above the roar of destruction. He raised his arm to shield his face from the shards of flying rocks. Next to him, Kakashi had to steady himself as tremors rumbled through the earth.

Daichi stood over Orochimaru, fist still pressing down on the snake-like man's skull. There was a brutal finality to his posture, as if Daichi was certain Orochimaru could not counterattack.

'Daichi barely even flinched when he delivered that punch.' Kakashi noted, struggling to tamp down his own shock. 'He used brute strength, but there's also an extreme level of finesse controlling it all...'
