Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

Perhaps it's because of Tsunade's talent as a healer.

Compared to the powerful attack of Chidori, Tsunade is more adept at controlling the subtle details.

At this moment, Jinpachi Munashi was in a situation where he was unable to move due to the control provided by this new type of ninjutsu.

Seeing the enemy's eyes reveal a hint of fear, Tsunade clenched her left fist and waved it in front of him.

She gave Muli Jinpachi a sweet smile and spoke in the gentlest tone, words that terrified him.

"If you don't surrender, I'm going to smash your head off!"

Wu Li Shenba's lips twitched slightly, but in less than a second, he made the right choice.

"I...I give up..."

Upon hearing this, the two examiners below the stage nodded slightly and instantly came up to the stage and stood beside the two men.

Tsunade had no intention of kicking someone when they were down. She took the initiative to withdraw her right hand from the other person's body and took two steps back to show her attitude.

The long-haired examiner carefully examined Mushishi Jinpachi's injuries, nodded to the other examiner, and indicated that he was alright.

Seeing this, the bald examiner secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, this is the future of their village, and it's impossible to say that they have no selfish motives at all.

Although I will not interfere with the competition, I will do my best to ensure the safety of these people.

Watching the silent Mushishi Jinpachi leave the arena, he let out a soft breath and announced:

"Tsunade wins the second match!"

Seeing the girl in the audience defeat the ace of Kirigakure once again, the crowd on the stage couldn't help but gasp.

However, Tsunade, the victor, did not seem particularly excited.

She was slightly out of breath, hunched over, and standing on the stage with her hands supporting her knees, looking exhausted.

She was already seriously injured in yesterday's battle, and her body is not in the best condition today.

Having just finished two battles, she felt that her physical strength was nearing its limit.

Seeing her like this, the long-haired examiner walked over to her and asked with concern:

"Do you want to fight another battle?"

Or should we replace them with someone else?

Upon hearing this, Tsunade pursed her lips, and just as she was about to continue, a voice suddenly came from the stage.

"Examiner, I'll be the next one to go on stage for our group."

Tsunade stepped back.

Tsunade looked up and saw that the speaker was Orochimaru from Team 7.

She was about to retort, but Orochimaru shook his head slightly and said:

"Tsunade, that's enough. You've proven yourself."

It would be foolish to persist.

Tsunade didn't refute, but frowned in resentment before obediently stepping off the stage.

Seeing this, the bald examiner nodded, then added:

"Players who voluntarily request to leave the field after a victory are considered to have eliminated themselves and will not be able to play again."

He paused, glanced at the people on the platform, and continued:

"The next match will be between Orochimaru and Kushimaru."

But please wait a moment before proceeding.

After saying that, he suddenly formed a hand seal and slapped the ground.

The arena, which had been riddled with craters from the previous two duels, was instantly restored to its original state after a surge of energy from the ground.

Seeing this, Kagura couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"It has to be said that, apart from the Wood Release which only Hashirama Senju and Yamato can use, the Earth Release is the most useful."

If this kind of talent were on Earth, I wonder how high a salary they could earn in a real estate company...

Unaware of Kagura's wild thoughts as she stood on the platform, the bald examiner, after tidying up the area, said:

"Please invite the next two contestants to the stage."

As soon as the words were spoken, two figures easily landed from the stands to the brand-new arena.

Seeing the two candidates in position, the bald examiner waved his right hand, signaling the duel to officially begin.

Kushimaru Kurihara had already drawn his long sword, Sewing Needle.

He bent down, lightly touched the ground with his left hand, and held the long sword behind him with his right hand.

With its long, slender limbs, it looks like a praying mantis waiting to attack from a distance.

On the other hand, Orochimaru stood there casually with his hands hanging at his sides.

Tsunade had just given him a general overview of the characteristics of the long sword, Sewing Needle, but Orochimaru didn't seem to care much about it.

Seeing his opponent's relaxed demeanor, Kushimaru Kurihara revealed a hint of anger beneath his mask.

"chirp"

With a soft whooshing sound, his body transformed into a blur, rushing towards Orochimaru.

Despite the opponent's sudden attack, Orochimaru seemed completely unprepared and remained standing still.

Seeing Orochimaru's reaction, Kushimaru Kurihara had a moment of doubt, but then he made a decision.

With a slight flicker, he suddenly changed direction from charging straight toward Orochimaru.

Countless afterimages flashed around Orochimaru; these were the afterimages of Kushimaru Kurihara moving around him at high speed.

Suddenly, as his figure appeared behind Orochimaru, the countless phantoms vanished.

All that could be seen was Kurihara Kushimaru raising his long sword high with his right hand, while his left hand gripped a thin thread at the hilt of the sword.

He gripped the silk thread tightly with his left hand and pulled hard. The countless silk threads that had been surrounding Orochimaru suddenly contracted, binding him tightly.

Despite being bound by countless threads, Orochimaru showed no fear on his face.

He craned his neck to examine the silk threads binding him, and said thoughtfully:

"Is this what makes your ninja sword special?"

Hmm, combined with your agile martial arts skills and the unique design of that knife.

I think I understand your attack method now.

Seeing his opponent, whom he had under his control but who remained completely unconcerned, Kushimaru Kurihara couldn't help but feel a little angry.

"Hmph, what a pretentious fellow!"

As he spoke, he exerted force and began to tighten the threads.

Although the threads attached to the long sword and sewing needle may seem small, he had actually experimented with them and found that they could easily cut even hard stones.

As the threads tightened, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face beneath the mask.

Watching the enemy being sliced ​​into pieces by those silk threads, with blood splattering everywhere, was one of his favorite scenes.

But as he slowly increased the pressure in his hand, he suddenly felt his grip loosen.

Suddenly, Orochimaru in front of him split into countless small snakes, which surged and easily broke free from their bindings.

Seeing this, everyone on the platform unconsciously frowned.

The girls, in particular, looked away in horror.

There's no way around it; even Kagura isn't quite used to this technique yet, let alone anyone else.

Seeing this, Kushimaru Kurihara on the field immediately sensed something was wrong.

Before his body could react, a long, thin figure suddenly appeared from the shadow behind him.

Orochimaru's body was wrapped around him in an extremely contorted posture.

His neck stretched to half a meter long, allowing his head to wrap around behind the enemy and face him directly at Kushimaru's masked face.

A sinister smile crept across Orochimaru's face. Looking at the slightly terrified look in his opponent's eyes beneath the mask, he spoke in a slightly hoarse voice:

"So, you like bondage?"

Chapter 60 How about the three of you come at me together?

The outcome was decided the moment Orochimaru entangled his opponent.

Under the constricting grip of what felt like a giant python, Orochimaru exerted only a slight effort, and Kushimaru was already rendered unable to fight.

With the referee announcing Orochimaru's victory, Team 7 secured their place in the next round of the first group.

Unlike the earlier cheers and whispers when Tsunade won, the stands were deathly silent.

Everyone wore expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

There was no way around it; the little snake still crawling around on the stage and Orochimaru's twisted figure really gave everyone the feeling of watching a horror movie.

Especially after his defeat, Kushimaru Kurihara's hunched back was so convincing that even through the mask, everyone could almost see the despair on his face.

After all, whoever was physically entangled by the enemy like that, and then looked at the enemy craning their necks to ask face-to-face:

Do you like bondage?

They probably won't be in a good mood. Compared to the physical injury, the psychological trauma will likely take much longer to heal.

As Orochimaru slowly walked back to the stands, the people along the way instinctively made way for him.

It is estimated that after this battle, Orochimaru's name will spread throughout the villages of the other two countries.

Well, it's just that this reputation might not be very good...

In the stands, only Kagura, Jiraiya, and the others continued to greet them without a care in the world.

Jiraiya, with his hands behind his head, pouted and said in dissatisfaction:
