Chapter 202 Wood Release?
Orochimaru looked at Sasuke's figure with some surprise. Although Sasuke was quite strong, what surprised Orochimaru even more was the Lightning Armor on Sasuke's body.
"Lei Kai?"
Orochimaru paused temporarily and asked with interest.
"Heh, you've got some knowledge."
Sasuke looked at Orochimaru with disdain, but his body was fully armed and ready to strike.
"Karin, assist me."
Sasuke didn't turn around, he just said something in a low voice.
Karin nodded with a hint of lingering fear; the opponent's ninjutsu had been too fast for her to react to.
If he had been hit, judging from the changes in Sasuke's armor just now, it would have hurt a lot.
The opponent's strength should not be underestimated; such skillful ninjutsu indicates they are definitely not an ordinary genin.
The sense of oppression he exerted on Sasuke was far greater than that on Gaara.
Therefore, Sasuke chose to have Karin assist him.
Karin connected her senses with Sasuke's, making up for Sasuke's poor sensory deficiencies.
"Tell me, who exactly are you?"
Sasuke twirled his sword, the blade of which, Yuehua, was pointed directly at Orochimaru's throat as he asked.
"Hehe, who am I? Oh, I am..."
Orochimaru squinted and started teasing Sasuke, but because he was now disguised as a strange-looking girl, it only made things stranger.
"Fine, I'll kill you first and then investigate."
Sasuke charged straight at Orochimaru while he was playing a trick on him.
As thunder roared, flames ignited on the moonlight.
[Dance of Thunder and Fire - Form 1]
Sasuke's figure flashed like a mirage as he approached Orochimaru, and then a crescent-shaped sword struck out in front of Orochimaru.
Orochimaru did not dive down this time; instead, his two strangely white hands began to form hand seals.
[Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall]
A wall of earth suddenly appeared in front of Orochimaru; it was very hard, but Sasuke's Moonbeam was also very sharp.
Slide it.
The earthen wall was sliced open by lightning, but Orochimaru behind it was nowhere to be seen.
later.
Thanks to Karin's shared senses, Sasuke immediately located Orochimaru's position and, using the momentum from cutting the wall, blocked Orochimaru's kunai with a backhand slash.
"Looking at it this way, I seem to be at a disadvantage. As expected of the young master of the Uchiha clan, even his swordsmanship is so good."
Sasuke was not affected by Orochimaru's sarcastic remarks; instead, he grasped the key point.
"You know me?"
Orochimaru chuckled softly, then, in front of Sasuke, he tore off his own mask.
Not a girl?!
Sasuke was startled when he saw Orochimaru silently tearing off his own face.
But he quickly realized that the face was a disguise. No wonder, I wondered how such a powerful genin could exist in such a small village as Kusagakure.
Orochimaru tore off Sasuke's face very quickly, in just a few breaths, revealing a still pale face.
Her cold demeanor immediately reminded Sasuke of a creature—a snake!
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Orochimaru."
His voice returned to a slightly hoarse male tone, which once again stunned Sasuke.
Wow, so you were even faking your gender.
Oh my god.
While everyone present was surprised, one person was puzzled.
"Um, Orochimaru... sir?"
Are you a boy?
Hinata looked at Orochimaru strangely and asked curiously.
Orochimaru froze, realizing he'd forgotten something: it seemed the Hyuga clan could see his own bones.
Why does your bone structure look like a girl's?
Hinata then asked.
"Ahem, that's not the point."
Orochimaru cleared his throat somewhat awkwardly, then glared fiercely at Karin.
"I want this girl. Anyone have any objections?"
Having fought on the battlefield for a long time, the unique killing intent of Leng Jun emanated from Orochimaru, spreading outwards.
At the same time, four enormous snake heads emerged from the surrounding forest.
Four enormous snakes crawled toward Naruto and the others' cabin. Karin's barrier kept alerting her, but it was no use now.
"Hey, Naruto, this is Orochimaru, one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha, known as the Cold Lord. By seniority, he is my uncle."
Minato's slightly worried voice rang out. The moment Orochimaru's face appeared, he recognized this man who was once his uncle.
"But he defected after being discovered by the Third Master for using the villagers to conduct his human research experiments."
"His strength is probably greater than mine now."
When Minato was alive, he was confident he could defeat Orochimaru, but since his death, his strength has stopped increasing, while Orochimaru continues to grow stronger.
He found it difficult to assess Orochimaru's current strength.
However, in any case, it's something that Naruto can't handle right now.
"Na Lu Tuo, just use my strength."
Kurama's voice rang out. He didn't care about the Three Ninjas or anything like that. As long as it wasn't a big wooden door, conjunctivitis, chains, or anything like that, Kurama wasn't afraid of anything!
Naruto nodded, and the chakra stored by Kurama within the Eight Trigrams Seal surged towards Naruto, causing the golden Tailed Beast Cloak to ignite on his body.
"Sasuke, Karin, be careful, he is Orochimaru, one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha."
Orochimaru heard Naruto's voice, then his neck twisted 180 degrees and he turned to look at Naruto.
? ? ?
No, what is this?
Looking at the golden Naruto before him, Orochimaru paused for a moment before asking, "Are you the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Naruto didn't answer Orochimaru; instead, he threw two Rasengans directly at Orochimaru's face.
"That's rude."
Orochimaru dodged the Rasengan's attack by sidestepping, then stroked his chin and said, "You're Minato and Kushina's son, right? After all, besides that idiot Jiraiya and Minato, I can't think of anyone else who knows this ninjutsu."
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Naruto slipped over to Sasuke and Karin, forcefully channeling his chakra into their bodies. Then, he looked up at Orochimaru and nodded.
"That's right, my name is Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm going to become Hokage!"
Seeing Naruto's expression, Orochimaru fell silent for a moment. Why was it this kind of talk again? This kind of stupid talk, this kind of meaningless talk.
You bunch of kids...
"Hehehe, maybe you won't have that chance."
Orochimaru chuckled softly, then began forming hand seals.
Although the opponent is the Nine-Tails, I still have a few ways to deal with it.
[Wood Release: Wood Splintering Technique]
Several sharp spikes shot out from Orochimaru's hand and then flew towards Naruto.
The moment the spike pierced Naruto's Tailed Beast Cloak, the color of the Tailed Beast Cloak noticeably dimmed.
"Wood Release?!"
"Wood Release".
Hashirama: ??? Someone's bullying the weak again?!
