Chapter 62: ch62
🎉40 advance ahead chapter..in patreon.🎉
Meanwhile, the quiet and peaceful Konoha Village has slowly become restless.
Uchiha Nanaya saw many ninjas moving through the village.
Among them were several masked Konoha Anbu heading towards Hokage Rock.
Nanaya smiled lightly.
"They've discovered Orochimaru and the others, as expected of Konoha, one of the five great ninja villages!"
This kind of emergency response can be said to be quite fast.
The Konoha Sensing Department noticed it not long after Nanaya moved Orochimaru and the others to the clearing on the Hokage Rock.
Nanaya also conducted some chakra perception, among which there were several chakra signatures that he was familiar with.
People like Kakashi, Asuma, and Genma Shiranui all acted.
Yamanaka Inoichi's order reached every ninja within minutes.
Kakashi, Asuma, and others were moving through Konoha.
The two looked solemn.
"Hey, Kakashi, did you get the news too?"
"Yeah, that Orochimaru guy is already in the village."
Orochimaru, the legendary Sannin.
Even Kakashi couldn't help but shiver when he heard this name.
When he was in Anbu, he tried to stop Orochimaru from escaping the village.
At that time, just a gaze from Orochimaru had already rendered him immobile with terror.
The kind of deterrent he had never experienced before.
At that time, he held the kunai and watched Orochimaru pass by him.
Kakashi also wanted to move his body.
But at that time, his body seemed to be frozen and motionless.
Intuition told him that as long as he made even a slight movement, with Orochimaru's strength, he would be wiped out in an instant.
It's been several years now, and Kakashi can't help but shudder when he thinks back to this scene.
At that time, the strength between them was simply not of the same dimension.
Even now, Kakashi is not sure he can defeat Orochimaru.
Of course, he is confident that he could perish with the other party.
Of course, this is just his own idea.
At this time, Kakashi couldn't help thinking of his teacher, Namikaze Minato.
He muttered under his breath, "Miss Minato, if only you were still here."
If Kakashi believed that his teacher was still alive, Orochimaru would never dare to act so recklessly.
Now, he can only rely on the Third Hokage.
Looking at Kakashi's melancholy face, Asuma couldn't help but ask:
"Kakashi, what did you just say?"
"No, nothing. By the way, where's Guy? Why haven't I seen him?"
Setting aside his melancholy, Kakashi knew that he couldn't rely on the dead, and now he could only rely on himself.
Kakashi was surprised not to see Guy, who is usually the most active at such times.
"It just so happens that Guy and Aoba went out on a mission; I'm afraid it will take two or three days for them to come back."
Kakashi: "Damn it, but at this time..."
...
On the Hokage Rock Statue, the tension was palpable.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was facing Orochimaru, whose neck stretched extremely quickly, going straight for the Third Hokage.
*Click—*
Blood splattered.
Orochimaru frowned slightly as he craned his neck.
"No, it's not like this!"
*Bang!*
The Third Hokage's entire figure turned into a wooden log.
Body Replacement Technique.
In a blink of an eye, the Third Hokage appeared a few meters behind Orochimaru using the Body Flicker Technique.
"Lord Sarutobi, you're using the Body Replacement Technique. Do you underestimate me?"
The Third Hokage was no nonsense, and both hands quickly formed seals.
"Haha, Orochimaru, the power of your ninjutsu is not comparable to our Konoha's Genin. Why, do you want to go back to the ninja academy to learn again?"
Unable to stop laughing a few times, the Third Hokage took a deep breath and gathered chakra in his mouth.
"Fire Style: Dragon Flame Bullets!"
The Third Hokage spewed out a hot flame from his mouth, instantly covering Orochimaru's petite body.
"Aah—"
A shrill scream followed.
The Third Hokage glanced at it, a look of disdain on his face.
"Orochimaru, as my disciple, you can't have only this ability. I can't have taught such students!"
*Hiss—*
A gigantic snake emerged from the earth with a terrifying sound of spitting its tongue.
"Tsk tsk, Lord Sarutobi, don't say that. I'm the cutest student you can be proud of."
At this moment, a group of Konoha Anbu arrived at the clearing above the Hokage Rock Statue.
Finally, they saw the Third Hokage and Orochimaru.
Passerby Anbu: "Yes, that person is Orochimaru."
"Lord Hokage is at war with him."
"Lord Hokage, are you alright?"
The appearance of Anbu caught the attention of the Third Hokage and Orochimaru.
Orochimaru couldn't help licking his lips and said impatiently, "The annoying little mice have finally appeared."
"How is the situation in the village? Are there any other ninjas?"
The Third Hokage asked eagerly, more concerned about the condition of the village than himself.
The most important thing was whether Orochimaru led a large number of ninjas to attack Konoha.
"Lord Hokage can rest assured that everything is normal in the village, and there are no other ninjas. The villagers are hiding in the safe area in an orderly manner. We told them that some unknown villagers were conducting a safety drill."
*Huh, huh—*
The Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed Orochimaru didn't lie; he didn't lead a large group of ninjas to attack Konoha.
"Lord Sarutobi, you are so considerate of the village, but this attitude makes me sick!"
"I told you, I came to the village this time for only you."
"Lord Hokage, wait a moment. We will open the barrier and deal with the enemy with you."
These Anbu couldn't wait; the S-class traitor was right in front of them, and who could keep calm?
One of the Anbu grabbed a kunai and rushed forward.
"This mere barrier, let me break it."
"Wait!"
"Stop!"
The calls of several other Anbu couldn't stop him at all.
A passerby Anbu struck directly at the purple barrier with kunai.
*Hiss—*
Kunai just touched the purple barrier, and a burst of purple flames spewed out instantly.
The kunai was instantly shattered, and the flames completely engulfed him.
With a scream, the Anbu ninja instantly turned to ashes.
This scene happened too suddenly, and the other Anbu halted in their tracks.
This shocking scene made the other Anbu startled. The power of this purple barrier is so strong that it is not so easy to open.
It is safest to think of a way from within the barrier.
The four who maintained the barrier sneered.
"Hmph, Konoha, these idiots actually came up to die."
"You don't have to worry about me; just protect the village and leave this to me."
"But, Lord Hokage..."
Following the Hokage's order, Anbu had to comply.
"You guys go to the village's border defense; the battle here is handed over to us."
This group of Anbu dividing into two groups was the best result.
Now they can only believe that the Third Hokage can defeat Orochimaru.
"Orochimaru, I have a question. I know that I will die without regrets."
"Tsk tsk, Lord Sarutobi, do you want to know how I escaped the village's perception barrier?"
"Yes, that's it."
Orochimaru stroked his long flowing hair and said calmly, "Thanks to that man's help!"
