Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 40 Hongdou, you don’t want others to know about this, right?

The air was filled with smoke, tree trunks were cracked, and the dust floating in the air did not obstruct Naruto's vision.

He stared at Orochimaru, trying to find any clues of a time traveler in his eyes.

However, Orochimaru just sneered and retreated in an orderly manner, with a calm and relaxed attitude as if his goal had been achieved.

"Naruto, see you next time." Orochimaru chuckled hoarsely and disappeared from the sight of the two in an instant.

Sakura hurried to the curled up Sasuke. She subconsciously wanted to check whether Sasuke's body was defiled, but immediately realized that something was wrong, so she waved to call Naruto over.

"Naruto, check him out."

Seeing that the pursuit was hopeless, Naruto returned to Sasuke and looked at him with a complicated look.

Hey little bro, you didn't really get stabbed in the ass, did you?
He carefully opened Sasuke's collar and looked inside. It seemed that apart from the obvious bite marks on the neck and the Heaven's Curse Seal that had formed, the rest were just some ordinary external injuries.

Well, there was no trace of saliva.

"Waaaaaaahh ...

It's like a sexual moan... Naruto complained in his heart and signaled Sakura to help him carry Sasuke away.

After a while, in a nearby tree hole.

"You guard him here first, I'll sweep around here." Naruto thought for a moment and said thoughtfully to Sakura.

Sakura frowned slightly. "Didn't we agree to discuss the 'fishing' plan?"

The two had discussed before that if necessary, they could use "Sasuke" to lure the time traveler out.

"But we can't be sure if the traveler is Orochimaru," Naruto said as he took out a towel from his ninja tool bag and wiped Sasuke's sweat. "I'm going to use my multiple shadow clones to sweep around tonight. I still have plenty of chakra. If I can't find him, we can discuss this plan later."

"So if you meet Orochimaru, will you fight him directly?"

"Absolutely not. He is the one who has the ability to ban me." Naruto said as a matter of course.

"Sasuke, I'll leave you here. Don't worry, I'll be back before morning."

After saying that, he left under Sakura's somewhat worried gaze, and dispersed his multiple shadow clones everywhere to search for Orochimaru's trace.

What Naruto didn't say was that according to the original work, Orochimaru should meet Red Bean soon and have a battle with her.

This means that as long as he searches towards the direction where the noise is coming from, his success rate will be greatly increased.

The other side of the Death Forest.

After discovering the body of the real Kusanagi, Hongdou went deep into the Death Forest alone. She was extremely shocked, and with her high-speed movement, the grooves on her chest kept rising and falling with the wind, drawing an astonishing arc.

"The sun is about to set. If we wait until night, it will be even harder to find him."

"Even if he is now an S-rank rebel, I will definitely defeat him, even if it means losing my life..."

Hongdou murmured softly, and suddenly, her heart trembled. She stopped at a thick tree trunk, and her eyes suddenly became determined.

"As your former subordinate, it's my job to punish you before the Anbu arrive, right, Orochimaru?"

Behind her, Orochimaru seemed to be embedded in the tree trunk, spitting out a long snake tongue and laughing softly: "You can't stop me..."

Before Orochimaru could finish his words, Hongdou flipped her wrist, and several sharp flying needles instantly appeared in her hand. She turned around suddenly and threw them with all her might!
Orochimaru remained motionless, simply using his tongue to easily deflect it. At the same time, Anko finished charging her energy and shouted, "Shadow Snake Hand!"

Thick pythons suddenly burst out from her sleeves, cross-binding Orochimaru's tongues. At the same time, she tensed all her muscles and used all her strength to drag Orochimaru out. Orochimaru took advantage of the situation and rushed forward, knocking Red Bean against the tree trunk.

Hongdou coughed, pulled out a kunai from her sleeve, and nailed her hand and Orochimaru's hand to the tree trunk!
"Hehe, I caught you," Hongdou smiled tiredly, interlocking her right hand with Orochimaru's and began to form hand seals. Orochimaru raised his eyebrows and said, "This hand seal is..."

"That's right, you will die with me tonight," Hongdou said with a triumphant smile: "Ninja Technique: Twin Snakes Killing Each Other..."

"Hehe, don't you want to live?"

Hongdou turned her head suddenly, only to see that 'Orochimaru' beside her had transformed into clay, with his original form standing aside, his eyes full of amusement.

The next second, his pupils suddenly shrank and he turned his head to the side!
"Om-"

A vortex of chakra with violent fluctuations slid past Orochimaru's head. He glanced at it and saw the expressionless yellow-haired boy looking at him for a moment.

Got you.

Naruto did say he wouldn't fight Orochimaru, but he didn't say his Shadow Clones wouldn't fight him.

However, Orochimaru was faster than Naruto. He suddenly attacked and grabbed Naruto's right hand that was extending the Rasengan. But the shadow clone Naruto's expression remained unchanged and he slightly pulled open his sleeves.

There was a "sizzling" sound coming from inside, and when I looked closely, I saw that the inner garment was covered with detonating talismans!
"boom!!!"

"boom!!!"

The huge explosion destroyed everything around it. At the same time, Naruto's real body received the information from the shadow clone in an instant.

Maybe Naruto's continuous shooting is scary, but if I put explosive tags on each of my shadow clones, how would you react?
At this time, Naruto, who was far away from Orochimaru, released his shadow clones one after another, while the clones that were closer all ran towards the two of them.

At the explosion site, Orochimaru jumped out of the black smoke, with faint burn marks on his sleeves. He was no longer interested in Red Bean's appearance. Just a look made her fall to the ground in pain.

The Heaven's Curse Seal on Hongdou's snow-white neck is still able to work, so she poses no threat to Orochimaru at all.

"You, what do you want to do this time? Assassinate Hokage?" Red Bean didn't bother to think about the reason for the explosion and asked Orochimaru directly.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru shook his head gently: "I am not interested in you now, but that Uzumaki Naruto has repeatedly surprised me."

After saying this, he seemed to fall into deep thought.

The purpose of Orochimaru's trip was, firstly, to assassinate Hiruzen, and secondly, to find an ideal body for himself.

He set his sights on Sasuke early on, but Naruto's performance surprised him time and time again.

"What a pity..." Orochimaru smacked his lips, "This child has the Nine-Tails in his body, and he doesn't have the beautiful Sharingan... He's still no match for the Uchiha family's children."

Orochimaru seemed to approve of Naruto's performance and courage.

"Come to think of it, that kid is a lot like you, but better than you, so I gave him the same curse seal as you." Orochimaru smiled, savoring Red Bean's expression.

Anko gritted her teeth, "That kid will die... He only has a one in ten chance of surviving."

"Who knows... Haha, let's not talk about it anymore. It looks like someone is looking for you." Orochimaru disappeared in a cloud of white smoke, and a stern-faced yellow-haired boy came next.

He calmly walked over to Anko, who was gradually breaking free from Orochimaru's influence and began to look him up and down.

An idea suddenly popped up in her mind: Could it be that he was the one who just caused the explosion?
You are so young, but when you meet someone with evil aura, instead of running away, you choose to confront him head-on?

But then, the boy's words made her face turn cold.

"I heard everything. You are Orochimaru's apprentice..."

Naruto's expression was blank, making it impossible to read his thoughts: "You don't want others to know about this, do you?"
