From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 220 showed no grief for Might Guy; the next character to appear was...

The commotion at Konoha's main gate immediately caught the attention of the Anbu, but when they arrived, they were shocked by what they saw.

The street, nearly a hundred meters long, looked as if it had been swept by a storm, with collapsed and broken bricks and sand everywhere. In the middle of the street, a ditch several meters wide and nearly half a meter deep had been plowed out, making it look like a canyon.

The eyes of those in the shadows followed the 'canyon'.

However, the huge gate of Konoha was covered with dense cracks, as if it had been subjected to some kind of terrifying attack. And in the very center of the countless spreading cracks was a person embedded in it, with only half of his body remaining. His flesh was a bloody mess, and it was difficult to tell who it was.

"What...what on earth happened?!"

The ANBU were startled, and then they spotted the person lying in the rubble nearby. They rushed over and asked, "Hey, can you still talk? Tell me quickly, what happened here?"

The person lying in the ruins was none other than Maruboshi Kosuke. He coughed up blood, struggled to raise his hand, and pointed at the bloodied figure hanging on the Konoha gate: "Quick... he is... Orochimaru..."

After saying that, his head lolled to the side and he fainted.

what? !

Big...Orochimaru? !
The ANBU's pupils suddenly contracted sharply, and he turned to look at the Konoha gate again, shocked: "Who... could beat Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin, into this state?"

He didn't notice the charred corpse.

The greatest contributor, Matt Day, was now nearing death, emitting white steam as his chest gradually stopped rising and falling.

His empty eyes remained fixed on Orochimaru until his death.

"Cough...cough..."

Orochimaru, who had been kicked into the door, coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, raised his bloodied face, and stared intently at the charred corpse with his ferocious, bloodshot eyes.

His voice was hoarse as he said, "Very good... You taught me a lesson with your life, Matt Day, didn't you? I'll remember your name!"

Too much curiosity can be deadly!
This was a truth that Orochimaru deeply understood, and he remembered it at a heavy price.

How could I forget it? Half of my body was kicked to pieces!
A normal ninja, even with ten lives, would probably be dead by now, but unfortunately, Might Guy encountered an abnormal ninja.

The three ninja each have their own area of ​​expertise.

Tsunade excels at healing and superhuman strength, Jiraiya excels at Sage Mode and Fire Release, and he... Orochimaru, is best at biological modification and survival techniques.

"Fortunately... I had modified my body beforehand."

Orochimaru was incredibly grateful that he had precognitively modified his body; otherwise, that kick would probably have landed him in the Sage of Six Paths.

"He's... still alive?!"

Seeing this, the secret agents were immediately alarmed. Then, their eyes hardened, and they decided to take advantage of the situation and kill the enemy. So they rushed over.

"Hmph... Did you think you could kill me while I was weak?" Orochimaru's pupils contracted slightly, and a terrifying killing intent flowed in his eyes.

"Die, you traitor!"

The ANBU members leaped several times, gathering their strength before soaring high into the air, hurling their kunai at Orochimaru while simultaneously forming hand seals: "Fire Release..."

However, before he could form a hand seal, a venomous snake darted out from in front of him at incredible speed, like a flash of black light, and then he felt a sharp pain in his neck.

"what!"

The member of the Dark Guard let out a scream, his face quickly turning from red to blue as the poison spread through his body. He collapsed and died instantly.

"Out of control."

Orochimaru snorted coldly. Although he was seriously injured, it did not mean that the mere Anbu could take his life.

He struggled to get down from the door, panting slightly, and his lower body transformed into a snake, slithering out the door.

rustling... rustling...

An unusual breeze swept across the street.

Orochimaru's face turned ashen, looking extremely unpleasant. Why was it that every time they were just one step away, someone would come and cause trouble?
shhhhhh...

Several figures appeared, wearing white animal masks; they were undoubtedly reinforcements from the Dark Guard who had arrived.

"So troublesome..."

Orochimaru deeply understood what it felt like to be targeted by the Anbu—it was like being stuck with a piece of chewing gum!
"Do it!"

The leader of the secret agents gave the order, and the rest of the men scattered and rushed forward.

"Tsk... This looks like things have gotten out of hand."

Looking at the Anbu rushing in from all sides, Orochimaru licked his lips, his eyes fierce and ruthless: "It seems that if I want to leave today, I'll have to fight my way out."

Before he finished speaking, several venomous snakes flew out of his mouth.

The foremost member of the ANBU hastily slashed the venomous snake. But out of the corner of his eye, he kept his eyes fixed on Orochimaru, watching his serpentine body writhe and dart about as he hurled shuriken. *Thud thud thud!*

Several blossoms of blood bloomed, but Orochimaru ignored them, charging forward despite the shuriken. Then, his neck suddenly stretched several times longer, and he bit down on the neck of an ANBU member.

The pupils of the dark figure dilated, and it instantly lost its breath.

But the other ANBU seized the opportunity and slashed at Orochimaru's elongated neck. Just as he was about to die, Orochimaru's mouth grew wider and wider, and then a wet figure emerged from it.

"one……"

Orochimaru licked his lips. Although he was seriously injured, he thought that killing these ANBU members would only come at a price.

His sinister eyes swept across the ANBU like knives. He smiled, raised his hand, and beckoned with his index finger: "Come on, I'd like to see if you can kill me, Orochimaru."

Clang!
A sharp glint of light appeared out of nowhere from his left side, seemingly without warning, at an unusually tricky and vicious angle.

That was the perfect timing!
It happened just as Orochimaru was speaking and slightly lowered his guard, and coupled with Orochimaru's stealthy movement technique, he was unable to react immediately.

In a moment of desperation, Orochimaru rolled over on the spot, barely avoiding a fatal blow, but the blade grazed his cheek and sliced ​​off half of his ear.

With half of his ear sliced ​​off, Orochimaru's forehead veins bulged, and his sinister gaze locked onto the attacker. But the next second, his expression turned somewhat strange.

It turns out... the person who launched the sneak attack had short, silver-white hair.

Kakashi felt a chill run down his spine when Orochimaru swept him with a sinister gaze. He quickly took several steps back, held his short sword horizontally in front of him, and watched him warily.

Orochimaru stared at the silver-haired boy, his lips twitching. If it were anyone else, he would have killed them long ago, but this little guy... he couldn't touch him.

The eerie silence lasted only half a second.

The next moment, the secret agents rushed up again, launching a methodical attack, as if they were in no hurry at all, clearly intending to stall for time!
"There's no need to make a scene any longer..."

Orochimaru calculated the time; if they were dragged on any longer, they might not be able to leave later.

Immediately, he stopped holding back his chakra, forced back the Anbu in front of him, lay on the ground, and opened his mouth wide: "Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!"

This time, the number of snakes far exceeded that of before.

The dark, surging tide of snakes resembled a tsunami, piled up and compressed together, reaching the height of several stories. They crowded against each other, emitting eerie friction sounds, and surged towards the dark front like a black torrent bursting its banks.

The Anbu were entangled by countless snakes and were unable to help themselves, so they had no power to delay Orochimaru any longer.

"Heh... Goodbye, Konoha."

Orochimaru sneered, ignoring the Anbu, and turned to step out of the Konoha gates. His mood seemed to have improved considerably, and his eyes regained their light.

"Amaterasu!"

Suddenly, a figure rushed over at lightning speed.

Without pausing for a moment, without even the slightest hesitation, the crimson Sharingan spun, releasing a large ball of black flame.

boom! ! !
The massive tide of ten thousand snakes was completely incinerated by the black flames.

"who is it?!"

Orochimaru's expression changed drastically, but he felt a strong gust of wind rushing towards him.

A black figure, with blood-red pupils filled with terrifying killing intent, spun through the air and charged forward.

So fast...

Orochimaru only had time to curl up before he was kicked in the abdomen, the spiraling force sending him flying.

bang bang bang...

Trees along the way were broken by Orochimaru flying backwards, and he finally came to a stop after crashing into a rock wall.

"Cough cough..."

Orochimaru coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, feeling both angry and furious.

He must have had the worst luck today. One thing after another, when will it ever end?
And this time? Who is it again?
Looking up, a figure gradually came into view.

It was a woman with long black hair tied up, wearing the black outer robe unique to the Uchiha clan, and her two Sharingan eyes with special patterns exuded an extremely strong killing intent and madness.

"You are...Uchiha...Mikoto?!"

Orochimaru recognized the newcomer and was immediately alarmed. When did the Uchiha clan produce another Mangekyou Sharingan user?
However, Mikoto's beautiful face was now twisted and grotesque, as if filled with some unresolved resentment. She resembled a demon from hell, radiating a terrifying killing intent that seemed almost tangible: "You dare...you dare...toy with his soul, Orochimaru...I'll kill you!!!"

Orochimaru:"???"

Chapter Four... I think I've reached about 13,000 or 14,000 words today. I'm shamelessly asking for some support!
