Eight Branches Technique

This technique allows Orochimaru to create a giant white serpent with eight heads and eight tails. The serpent is large enough to attack most things without fear. When using this form, Orochimaru can emerge from the mouth of one of the heads and use his Kusanagi Sword to attack, even without a host. He was only seen using this while trying to escape from Sasuke's body.

Trivia
The name of this jutsu comes from the legendary snake Yamata no Orochi, a monstrous eight-headed and eight-tailed snake that was destroyed by the god Susanoo-no-Mikoto.
