"It's started!"
As the explosion began, dust rolled on the borders of Konoha...
Orochimaru's Sound Ninja forces had been lying in wait here for a full three days. During these three days, they had been eagerly anticipating, unable to eat or sleep well... But now, it was finally here!
"March towards Konoha!" All of Konoha's Chūnin and Jōnin had been dispatched to the Hidden Waterfall Village for reinforcement. Only some Genin remained in Konoha, and the defensive barrier had also been destroyed by the explosion.
Orochimaru grinned sinisterly: This was the closest he had ever been to occupying Konoha!
"Orochimaru is invading!"
Shizune's news made Tsunade, who had been calmly observing, jump up involuntarily. Even with Konoha at war with the Hidden Waterfall Village, she wouldn't have been so flustered. But Orochimaru, her former teammate...
"Damn Orochimaru! After killing the Third Hokage, you've done this again! I will never forgive you!" Tsunade took off her Hokage hat, clenched her fists, and rushed out of the door...
Orochimaru accidentally took the blame!
Meanwhile, among the Twelve Rookie Ninjas, thanks to Konoha's powerful intelligence system, Naruto quickly learned the news.
"Orochimaru!"
Naruto also gritted his teeth: "You not only tricked Sasuke away, but you've also done this! I will definitely not let you go!"
Orochimaru took the blame again...
Of course, more importantly, Orochimaru might have Sasuke with him. Then he could bring Sasuke back to Konoha along the way, killing two birds with one stone! With that, nothing could stop him. Naruto and Sakura decisively rushed out of the ruins and headed for the battlefield...
As for the truth behind Gennō? Who cared what happened? The explosion had already happened, what else could be done? The most important thing now was Sasuke. Whether it was hatred or the mastermind behind it, none of it was as important as a single finger of Sasuke!
Shikamaru frowned. Although he wanted to persuade them, he couldn't say anything. Once Naruto made up his mind, no one in this world could stop him!
Aoi Ren, who had witnessed all this, grinned: "As expected, as long as the plot progresses according to its inertia, the outcome will not deviate significantly!"
As long as Naruto heard the names Orochimaru or Sasuke, he would definitely not remain indifferent. By utilizing Naruto's protagonist nature, his goal could be achieved! Aoi Ren understood the rules of the training world a little more...
After Naruto left, Aoi Ren headed straight for the Hokage's round office. After Tsunade left, only Shizune and a few ANBU protecting the Scroll of Seals remained.
Although the elite ninjas were troublesome, they were not an obstacle for Aoi Ren!
"Sage Mode, Eight Gates—Gate of View Open!"
The emptiness within Konoha allowed Aoi Ren to act with impunity. Surging chakra formed a terrifying pillar of smoke, rising straight into the sky.
"Whose chakra is that?"
Neji's eyes widened in surprise and panic: "This amount of chakra far exceeds that of an elite ninja!"
"In which direction is that?" Shikamaru had a bad premonition.
"Hokage's office!"
Under his Byakugan, Aoi Ren punched through half of the Hokage's office, revealing the secret room hidden behind it. The Scroll of Seals was safely enshrined within.
"Who are you?"
The ANBU firmly blocked Aoi Ren's path...
"You don't need to know." Aoi Ren fiercely swung his fist: "Eight Gates—Morning Peacock!"
The surging fiery fists forced the ANBU back. Aoi Ren grabbed the thick Scroll of Seals, feeling a surge of emotion.
This Scroll of Seals contained all the powerful ninjutsu Konoha had developed over the years: Naruto only learned the first one, and it lasted him from the first episode to the last!
All this time, Aoi Ren's greatest gain was still this Scroll of Seals!
However...
It seemed a little too easy?
"Shadow Snake Hand!"
A gray spotted snake suddenly emerged from the ground and bit the beginning of the Scroll of Seals!
"As expected, it's not that simple!" Aoi Ren fiercely gripped the Scroll of Seals. Did this little snake think it could contend with him? How overconfident!
However, Aoi Ren unknowingly overlooked one thing. The Scroll of Seals, in essence, was just a scroll...
"Hiss..."
The fabric tore, and the entire Scroll of Seals was ripped in half under the struggle.
Orochimaru, holding half of the Scroll of Seals, sneered: "I knew you wouldn't be so kind!"
"If I say I was going to give it to you, would you believe me?" Aoi Ren shook his head with a smile: "It seems you don't believe me, and I don't believe it myself!"
Tsunade had already followed behind Orochimaru. It seemed there was no chance of getting the complete Scroll of Seals now...
"Since that's the case, Manda, make your move!"
Aoi Ren's mind stirred. Manda, who was stationed on the Hokage Rock, decisively triggered the explosive tags. The entire Hokage Rock mountain range collapsed with a roar, and terrifying rocks swept towards Konoha like a heavenly collapse...
"You truly are a madman!" Orochimaru's scalp tingled. He only wanted to destroy Konoha, never to erase it from the map.
"To be called a madman by you, that's really unpleasant!" Aoi Ren sneered dismissively: "As for the remaining half of the Scroll of Seals, I will get it back!"
"As for now..." Aoi Ren turned to look at Naruto, who was charging towards him in Nine-Tails form: "Let's say goodbye for now!"
"Mission complete, returning!"
