Naruto: Eating Kaido's Azure Dragon Devil Fruit-Chapter 329 Master Servant Contract

Boom.

An energy light beam with a diameter exceeding fifty meters, like a sword of divine punishment, blasted towards the White Snake Sage.

The space along its path twisted slightly.

The White Snake Sage sensed a fatal crisis and screamed, unleashing the senjutsu chakra accumulated over a thousand years without reserve.

"Senjutsu, Coiling Serpent Protection."

Her enormous serpent body coiled up, forming a mountain of snakes. Thick senjutsu chakra mixed with her primordial snake venom constructed layer after layer of extremely sturdy defensive barriers before her.

However.

Bang. Bang. Bang. Bang.

The torrent of energy crushed and destroyed the layers of defenses she had set up as if they were dry twigs, finally striking her coiled serpent body fiercely.

"Hiss, roar."

The White Snake Sage wailed in agony. Her massive serpent body was blasted, scales flying everywhere, flesh torn and mangled, even revealing stark white bones.

Her defenses seemed so utterly fragile before this absolute power.

Just two moves.

One move caused minor injuries, the second inflicted severe wounds.

This was the strength of the complete Azure Dragon form.

Below, the snake horde of Ryuchi Cave saw their invincible White Snake Sage suffer such heavy damage in a single encounter. They immediately fell into extreme panic and began to scatter and flee.

The snake maidens, Kojinja and Ichikishimahime, also lost all color from their faces, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Too strong.

They were not even in the same dimension.

The White Snake Sage struggled to lift her huge serpent head. Her snake pupils were filled with fear and resentment, but more than that, a despair born from the instinct for survival.

She understood. She was simply not this Azure Dragon’s opponent.

Continuing to fight meant only death.

A thousand years of cultivation, finally touching the threshold of transforming into a dragon. She did not want to die here.

"Stop, stop."

The White Snake Sage hissed weakly. "I, I surrender."

The Azure Dragon transformed by Sora hovered in the air, looking down at her without any reaction.

Surrender.

This kind of ancient monster that had lived for over a thousand years had deep, cunning thoughts and many tricks. She could surrender today and find an opportunity to retaliate tomorrow.

Sora never believed he could outmaneuver such an ancient being in terms of scheming.

The best method was to take advantage of her weakness and demand her life.

Eliminate the threat forever.

Feeling the increasingly sharp killing intent emanating from Sora, the White Snake Sage became completely frantic.

Enduring the intense pain, she opened her huge serpent mouth and spat out a scroll emitting a strange blood light and phantom images of small snakes.

"Blood, bloodline contract."

The White Snake Sage said urgently.

"I am willing to sign the highest level master servant contract. From now on, I will serve you as master. All the resources and power of Ryuchi Cave are yours to use."

"I only beg, I only beg you to spare my life, and, and grant me a trace of the opportunity to transform into a dragon."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Sora pause for a moment, but the remaining snakes of Ryuchi Cave below, including Kojinja and Ichikishimahime, were all stunned.

The White Snake Sage, the founder of Ryuchi Cave, a being that had existed for a thousand years, actually.

Actually wanted to actively acknowledge someone as master.

And it was the highest level master servant contract, meaning life and death were completely controlled by the master, even thoughts could not be concealed.

This was simply something unheard of since ancient times.

But.

They looked at the sky-covering Azure Dragon in the sky, then looked at the severely wounded, near death, and utterly disheveled White Snake Sage. In their hearts, they actually felt a sense that "this is how it should be".

Before a true divine dragon, the White Snake Sage lowering her head and submitting seemed.

It did not seem shameful.

Light flickered in Sora’s dragon pupils as he quickly weighed the options in his heart.

Killing the White Snake Sage would certainly eliminate the future threat forever, but the senjutsu knowledge and resources accumulated by Ryuchi Cave over a thousand years would also be cut off.

After all, a large reason why the three great sage lands were transcendent was the strength and mystery of their leaders.

Moreover, if the White Snake Sage died, Ryuchi Cave would certainly fall into chaos, possibly attracting other troubles.

If he signed this master servant contract, he could not only completely control the White Snake Sage and Ryuchi Cave, obtaining a powerful fighter and knowledge base, but also take over all the legacy of Ryuchi Cave without shedding blood.

If he could control Ryuchi Cave, implementing many future plans would be much more convenient.

Thinking of this, Sora made a decision.

He reined in part of his killing intent, his dragon pupils fixed on the White Snake Sage.

"You seek to transform into a dragon."

"Yes. Yes."

The White Snake Sage said urgently.

"This old one has bitterly cultivated for a thousand years. The only obsession is to shed this serpent body and transform into a true dragon."

"Master, your bloodline is pure, you are a true dragon. As long as you are willing to give some guidance, bestow a trace of opportunity, this old one is willing to be your servant for eternity, without any disloyalty."

For the sake of transforming into a dragon, she abandoned the pride and dignity of a thousand years.

Sora was silent for a moment, then his huge dragon head nodded slightly.

"Agreed."

He extended a dragon claw. A drop of pale golden blood flew out and landed on that bloodline contract scroll.

Seeing this, the White Snake Sage also forced out a drop of her essence blood, merging it into the scroll.

Hum.

The scroll erupted with a dazzling blood light. The serpent-shaped runes on it seemed to come alive, coiling around Sora’s drop of dragon blood. Finally, it formed a complex dragon-coiled serpent mark. It split into two, respectively merging deep into Sora’s soul and the White Snake Sage’s soul.

An absolute sense of control emerged in Sora’s heart. At this moment, he only needed a single thought to make the White Snake Sage perish, body and soul dispersed.

The master servant contract was formed.

"White Snake, pays respects to Master."

The White Snake Sage lowered her huge head. Her voice, though weak, also contained a trace of expectation mixed within.

Sora released the Azure Dragon true form, returning to human form, and landed before her.

"Take your snakes and retreat to Ryuchi Cave."

"Do not leave without authorization without my orders. Later, I will come find you."

"Yes, Master."

The White Snake Sage dared not ask more, respectfully complying.

She summoned the remaining snake horde and the three Snake Princesses who were still shaken to the core to leave. Soon, they disappeared over the vast sea.

Ascension Island finally returned to peace.

Sora walked to the severely wounded Tagitsuhime, Tenji, and Shanjun.

Looking at Tenji whose breathing was somewhat heavy, it was clearly a sign of having opened the Eight Gates.

He could not help but recall when he previously went to find Might Duy, asking if he could teach the Eight Gates to Tenji. Might Duy’s astonished expression.

It was as if he were saying, "Can a monkey also cultivate this."

Now it seemed, Tenji indeed could cultivate it, and was already quite proficient, having reached the level of the fifth gate.

Looking at Tenji and Shanjun, Sora did not comfort them. Losing to the White Snake Sage who had cultivated for over a thousand years was not a disgrace. Rather, winning would have been abnormal.

Moreover, with their personalities, they did not need his comfort. They just needed to win next time.

Sora bit the tip of his tongue, forcing out three drops of pale golden essence blood radiating with rich vitality.

This essence blood was different from the drop used for the contract earlier. It contained purer life essence and power.

With a flick of his finger, the three drops of essence blood respectively flew into the mouths of the three.

Almost immediately, intense energy fluctuations erupted from the bodies of Tagitsuhime, Tenji, and Shanjun. Their injuries began to recover at a visible to the naked eye speed. Their auras even became more refined and powerful than before they were injured.

Especially Tagitsuhime. The dragon horns on her head, which were originally just bumps, actually grew another small segment after absorbing this drop of essence blood. The flood-dragon aura on her body also became purer.

"Ah, this is the feeling."

A look of intoxication appeared on her face.

Last time, before Sora left, he gave her three drops of ordinary blood, which allowed her to evolve to this point. This time, it was the even more precious essence blood from the tip of the tongue.

The effect was at least ten times stronger.

"Thank you for Master’s bestowal." Tagitsuhime excitedly knelt and prostrated on the ground.

Tenji and Shanjun, however, reacted indifferently. Looking at the excited Tagitsuhime, they were curious in their hearts. Wasn’t this normal.

Really had never seen the world.
