Chapter 317 The White Snake is Immortal

 Although Orochimaru is pretentious, he does possess the most powerful strength in the ninja world.

But in front of Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan, he has suffered several losses, leaving a psychological shadow that is difficult to erase.

This time is no exception.

 Facing Sasuke, Orochimaru was fierce and fierce. On the surface, he continued to launch strong attacks on the former, but in fact it was just to cover up his inner timidity.

 Finally, Orochimaru was exposed, and during the fight, he fell under the illusion of a kaleidoscope.

 In a daze.

The famous sword "Aman Cong Yun Sword" he spit out from his mouth was actually taken away by Sasuke, and then he thrust it into Orochimaru's chest with his backhand.

"Brother is right, our Uchiha's Sharingan is your biggest nemesis. Also, this sword is good, I will accept it."

Sasuke looked at Orochimaru with a cold expression, then with a sharp look, he suddenly withdrew his ninja sword from the latter's body.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

Orochimaru's eyes widened with a look of reluctance, and then he fell straight back.

　　唰.

Sasuke inserted the Amazong Cloud Sword on the ground, raised his hands to form a seal, and prepared to use the fire escape ninjutsu to completely burn Orochimaru's body to ashes.

 In this case, there should be no way for this guy to be resurrected, even if he is reincarnated from the dirty earth.

 But at this moment.

 “Hehehe…”

Orochimaru, who was lying on the ground, suddenly laughed, his golden snake eyes full of evil and madness.

Um?

Sasuke was startled and realized the danger. He immediately jumped back and quickly distanced himself from Orochimaru.

 The next second.

　　Boom.

 A huge and evil chakra suddenly erupted from Orochimaru's body and swept through the entire forest.

 “Get back quickly!”

　　 Tsunade, Naruto, Konan and others also retreated, watching in horror as the forest was destroyed.

 In the horrified eyes of everyone.

I saw a huge white snake with eight heads and eight tails appearing on the ground. Even compared to the tailed beast, its momentum was not inferior.

　　Yamata no Orochi.

 This is the true face of Orochimaru.

　　For a long time, he has been making various modifications to his body in order to practice the S-level forbidden art - the Eight-Qi no Jutsu.

This Yamata no Orochi is the embodiment of Orochimaru's strong obsession.

"interesting."

Sasuke quickly calmed down after experiencing the initial surprise, and then showed his trump card without hesitation.

　　 Susanoo.

Chichichichi.

As a substantial stream of chakra rose into the sky, a purple half-length Susan wearing Karatengu armor appeared outside Sasuke's body.

Who will be the final winner, Yamata no Orochi or Susanoo?

　　唰!

Without a word of nonsense, Sasuke immediately took a pre-emptive strike and controlled Susan to shoot a flaming black arrow, which penetrated one of the Yamata no Orochi's heads at lightning speed.

 Yan Dun·Added earth life.

This is one of the abilities of Sasuke's Mangekyou. It can give Amaterasu shape changes, transforming the deadly black flame into various weapons such as bows and arrows, blades, and magatama for attack and defense.

Hence, his Mangekyou Eye Technique and Susanoo's ability can be said to complement each other.

 This also makes Sasuke's Susanoo extra powerful.

"Roar!"

 The Yamata no Orochi roared in pain, but losing a head was not a serious injury to it.

 So, it quickly slowed down, and its huge body squirmed and rushed toward Susan.

 It was another thrilling battle.

ten minutes later.

boom.

As the last head of the Yamata no Orochi fell to the ground, it finally stopped struggling and collapsed with a loud noise after losing all its heads.

Boom.

 The ground in the entire forest shook violently, as if there was an earthquake.

 “Win, cousin Sasuke wins!”

Not far away, Marissa waved her fist and cheered.

Sasuke glanced at his cousin, smiled at her, and then looked away, his sharp eyes scanning the body of Yamata no Orochi.

Facing a slippery enemy like Orochimaru, one must not take it lightly. If one is not careful, he may run away again.

 Sure enough.

 “Hiss.”

 A small white snake emerged from under the body of Yamata-no-Orochi and quickly slipped into the pile of rocks, trying to escape from the scene.

　　咻!

With a sharp sound breaking through the air, Sasuke threw the Amancong Cloud Sword, falling from the sky quickly and accurately, and pierced the little snake's head on the spot.

 The little snake's head was penetrated and it rolled over desperately, but it was just a death struggle.

Within a few seconds, the little white snake stopped moving. Blood and serous fluid flowed out from under its broken head. It was so dead that it could no longer die.

 “I told you, Orochimaru, today is the end of you.”

Sasuke picked up the Tiancong Yun Sword, looked at the miserable little white snake on the ground, and said with a sneer.

Everyone also gathered around and looked at the huge body of Yamata no Orochi, marveling at it.

"Orochimaru, you didn't expect...that you would end up like this, alas."

Tsunade looked at the little white snake on the ground with a complicated expression.

Hearing this, Marissa came over curiously, pointed at the body of the white snake and asked:

“Godmother, was this guy your good friend before? I heard you were called the Sannin of Konoha at that time?”

　　“That’s right.”

Tsunade did not deny it, but sighed, "Unfortunately, people change, and Orochimaru is no longer the same person he was before."

 The Orochimaru in her memory was the strongest among the three of them, and the most popular disciple of the Third Hokage. He once had an extremely bright future.

Who would have thought that he would go astray and violate taboos in order to study the art of immortality. He secretly conducted various human experiments in Konoha until the incident came to light and he became a rebel ninja overnight.

Over the years, Orochimaru has continued to break through the bottom line, step by step towards depravity and madness, and in the end he destroyed himself because of that madness.

At this moment, Tsunade could only sigh in her heart towards this former best friend.

Seeing that Tsunade was a little depressed, Marisa rolled her eyes, patted her chest and said loudly:

“Godmother, I will never change, I will always love you.”

 After saying that, he opened his strong arms and gave Tsunade a big hug.

 “Girl, big or small, let me go quickly.”

 Tsunade scolded Marisa helplessly, but her heart felt warm.

　　Although she is over fifty years old and is still unmarried and has no tribe or family, fortunately she has several lovely disciples and a lovely goddaughter named Marissa.

 For Tsunade, this is enough.

 Beside.

"This way Xianglin is saved. However, we seemed to be watching the show from the beginning to the end, so we couldn't help much."

Naruto rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and smiled awkwardly.

Hearing this, Konan said calmly: "No matter what, our mission is completed. Xiang Rin will return to Konoha with these people. It's time for us to leave, Naruto."

 “…Okay, Teacher Xiaonan.”

 Naruto nodded hesitantly.

 Subsequently, he took off the Konoha ninja forehead protector from his forehead, walked up to Sasuke, and said to him:

“Please hand over these two ninja forehead protectors to the Sixth Hokage. Konan-sensei and I are very grateful to him.”

Sasuke glanced at the forehead protector, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, he said coldly:

"Do I look like the kind of person who runs errands for you? Uzumaki Naruto, don't think that if you beat me once, you can boss me around!"

"Well."

Naruto was stunned for a moment, then quickly apologized and said, "That's not what I meant, you misunderstood..."

 Just when he looked embarrassed.

 “Give it to me, Naruto.”

 Fortunately, the considerate Shizune appeared in time, took the ninja forehead protector, and helped Naruto out of the siege.

 “Thank you, big sister.”

Naruto finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and then turned to leave.

"etc!"

Sasuke gave a sharp shout, and with a flash of his body, he blocked Naruto's path with the cold-gleaming Amancongyun Sword.

Naruto looked at the cold black-haired boy in front of him in astonishment:

 “Sasuke, what do you mean?”

"You don't think that I would just forget about the last battle, do you?" Sasuke's eyes were burning, and his face was full of uncontrollable fighting spirit.

 He has not yet avenged his shame on Naruto, so how could he let him leave so easily?

Facing Sasuke who was determined to take revenge, Naruto laughed at himself, spread his hands and said:

"I have lost my Rinnegan and Nine-Tails. Without these external objects, I am no longer your opponent. Sasuke, you are the real genius, I am not."

 What he said was sincere.

But to Sasuke's ears, it sounded like something strange.

 So it was no surprise that the anger in Sasuke's heart was completely ignited, and he immediately shouted coldly:

 “Stop talking nonsense, just have a fight and you’ll find out.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sword flashed and slashed towards Naruto's neck.

However, Naruto remained motionless, standing there with a calm face, as if he was letting Sasuke slaughter him.

　　唰.

 The sharp tip of the knife was less than half a centimeter away from Naruto's fragile throat, and it stopped abruptly.

 “Why don’t you fight back and look down on me like this?”

Sasuke asked sternly. Although he stopped temporarily, his fierce murderous intention did not subside at all.

Naruto showed a peaceful smile on his face and said sincerely:

"I have decided to give up my identity as a ninja and leave the ninja world with Teacher Konan. I will never fight anyone again. Sasuke, if you are still angry, just stab me. This is the punishment I deserve."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes and stared at Naruto without saying a word for a long time, and finally slowly put down the ninja sword in his hand.

 “Coward!”

 He dropped these two words and completely lost interest. He immediately turned around and walked away, never looking at Naruto again.

at this time.

"somebody is coming."

Xianglin suddenly shouted, attracting everyone's attention.

Sasuke had just been slapped by Naruto, and he had nowhere to vent his depressed mood. After hearing Xianglin's reminder, he immediately shouted towards the woods:

 “Who? Sneaky, get out of here!”

 “Relax, Sasuke.”

　　A familiar voice came from there, and Sasuke was stunned for a moment.

Subsequently, amid a rustling sound, a silver-haired Kakashi appeared with a group of Konoha Anbu.

Tsunade frowned and asked:

“Kakashi, you, the ANBU captain, are not staying well in Konoha, so why are you here?”

“I came to capture Orochimaru under the orders of the Sixth Generation.” Kakashi glanced at the huge corpse of Yamata no Orochi and said to Tsunade truthfully.

“Kakashi-sensei, you’re a step too late, I’ve already killed that guy.”

Sasuke looked stunned. He didn't expect his uncle to want Orochimaru alive. If he had known, he would have spared Orochimaru's life.

Kakashi heard this and shook his head:

"Sasuke, Orochimaru's vitality is stronger than you think. He will not die so easily."

 Amidst everyone's doubtful eyes, Kakashi stepped forward and walked straight to Mitarai Anko.

"excuse me."

He said something and took action like lightning, lifting Hongdou's windbreaker before she could react.

 “What are you going to do?!”

When Tsunade saw this, she immediately gave a sharp shout and rushed over to protect her disciple.

"This is an order from the Sixth Generation. Tsunade-sama, please rest assured that I will not harm your disciple. On the contrary, I will help her solve the hidden dangers in her body."

 Kakashi explained, raised his hands to quickly form a seal, and placed his last palm on the curse seal on Anko's shoulder.

 In an instant, the red light lit up.

With Kakashi's spell, the Orochimaru chakra contained in the curse seal quickly left Anko's body and was released.

"This is…"

As Tsunade's eyes grew more and more surprised, a person appeared alive on Anko's shoulders, and finally separated from her body and fell to the ground with a thud.

 It is Orochimaru.

As he was resurrected, the curse mark on Hong Dou's shoulder also completely disappeared. Then she felt dizzy and passed out on the spot.

 “Don’t worry, your disciple will be fine after some sleep.”

Kakashi didn't wait for Tsunade to ask, and took the initiative to explain, "The curse mark of the sky left by Orochimaru on Anko not only contains his chakra, but also hides part of his soul.

Therefore, Lord Sixth Generation ordered me to resurrect Orochimaru from Anko’s body using the evil-repelling seal after Sasuke defeated him, and bring him back to Konoha for trial. "

Everyone present was shocked after hearing what Kakashi said.

 What shocked them was not only Orochimaru's resurrection, but also the Sixth Hokage Uchiha Dan.

That man, obviously not here, seems to have anticipated everything and controlled everything.

 Hideously terrible.

"Why are you causing so much trouble? Let's just settle it here. There is no need for a trial."

Tsunade frowned, and started to argue in the distance. As soon as she finished speaking, she clenched her fist and wanted to beat Orochimaru to death.

 Orochimaru panicked.

 He didn't panic because this was really his last life and he couldn't afford to die again.

"Tsunade, didn't you hear what Kakashi said? This is Uchiha Dan's order. He doesn't want me to die. Do you want to disobey the Sixth Hokage?"

Orochimaru said as he got up from the ground and hid behind Kakashi.

"snort."

Tsunade snorted disdainfully, clenched her fists, and walked towards Orochimaru, "What's the use of you living? Are you endangering the ninja world? Don't worry, even if you die, Konoha Intelligence Department can still The information they want will be extracted from your body."

 “Tsunade-sama…”

Kakashi felt a headache and was thinking about how to dissuade Tsunade when Orochimaru behind him suddenly said something shocking.

“I can help Uchiha Dan get the Nine Tails and let him gather all the tailed beasts to become the Ten-Tailed Jinchuuriki!”
