A comic book journey to see the Eye of Antiquity

Barely managing to muster some of his newly recovered chakra to unleash a ninjutsu, Orochimaru managed to block the Third Hokage's attack. When he landed and turned around, the sight before him nearly made him vomit blood in anger.

Yang Lei was squatting on top of the Senju brothers' heads, repeatedly hacking open their skulls with his Kusanagi sword, cutting them open every time they started to recover, ensuring they could never fully recover.

0166 Resolving the Thousand-Handed Brothers

Because Orochimaru was distracted, the Senju brothers missed their chance to break free the moment they were controlled by Yang Lei's Tree World Descent, and were then beheaded by him.

Yang Lei wouldn't stand on ceremony with them. The two of them were just puppets now, devoid of any sense of human kindness or even self-awareness.

"By the way, where did Orochimaru's techniques go?"

Squatting in front of the two heads, Yang Lei began searching, repeatedly slicing open the two heads that kept regenerating, trying to find the two kunai that Orochimaru had just put there.

"Yang Lei, be careful."

Just then, a warning came from behind: "Third Generation ~"

Yang Lei turned his head in response and saw Orochimaru rushing towards him. When he got close, Orochimaru formed a hand seal, opened his mouth and spat out a small snake, which then opened its mouth and spat out a long sword.

"Ding."

Yang Lei raised his sword to meet Orochimaru's attack, deflecting it. He then heard a commotion behind him. Without turning around, he quickly rushed forward a few steps to dodge the Senju brothers' attack.

The bodies of the Thousand Hands Brothers have long been restored. In the state of Edo Reincarnation, they are immortal. Even if they are burned to ashes, they can be restored in the blink of an eye. They just can't get up because their heads are constantly being cut open.

"Kill him for me."

Orochimaru ignored the flying sword and ordered the Senju brothers to kill Yang Lei first.

"Wood Release: All Things in the Universe".

It was Hashirama Senju who launched the first attack. He used Yang Lei's ninjutsu, Advent of a World of Trees, to unleash the Myriad Manifestations of the Forest, causing the roots of the Advent of a World of Trees to burst out of the ground in an attempt to trap Yang Lei.

"Water Release: Hard Vortex Water Blade".

This time, in order to prevent being interrupted again, Tobirama Senju subconsciously used a water-style ninjutsu. He first condensed a ball of water that was spinning rapidly in his hand, and then quickly moved forward.

This is truly a situation where there are pursuers below and blockades ahead.

However, Yang Lei was not worried at all in the face of this predicament. With a thought, he softly shouted: "Reincarnation Eye, open. Reincarnation Immortal Body, open. Divine Luo Heavenly Sign."

"Boom!"

A tremendous repulsive force surged from Yang Lei's body, easily deflecting both Hashirama Senju's Myriad Manifestations and Tobirama Senju's attacks thrown when things went wrong.

"Om."

After Shinra Tensei dissipated, the figure reappeared, enveloped in green chakra, which eventually coalesced into a long robe. Nine black Truth-Seeking Balls danced around him. He held the Kusanagi Sword in his right hand and a slender black katana that he had acquired from somewhere in his left.

"What is this?"

Orochimaru frowned. He knew nothing about the Tenseigan, so naturally he didn't know what the Reincarnation Sage Body was, nor did he know about the existence of Truth-Seeking Balls or that Truth-Seeking Balls could be condensed into physical weapons. In short, everything that Yang Lei showed him seemed very novel to him.

"First Generation, Second Generation, I'm sorry."

For some reason, Yang Lei suddenly apologized to the two Qian Shou brothers.

"Ok?"

Orochimaru instinctively sensed something was wrong, but he didn't know where that feeling came from.

After all, the last true Sage Mode that appeared had to be traced back to the Sage of Six Paths. Back then, there was no Edo Tensei yet, so no one knew that if you were attacked by a weapon or Truth-Seeking Ball formed from Truth-Seeking Balls, even if you were in Edo Tensei, you would not be able to recover.

At this time, since Yang Lei had already obtained Wood Release chakra from Hashirama Senju and Magnet Release bloodline limit from Rasa using his Byakugan, he no longer needed to delay with them and had the idea of ​​ending the battle as soon as possible.

Actually, back when he first activated his Reincarnation Immortal Body, Yang Lei had already thought about what kind of weapon he should make with the Seeking Truth Jade. But after thinking it over, he figured that since he could make Seeking Truth Jade weapons indefinitely, why bother with all that?

In fact, the materialized Truth-Seeking Balls had already appeared long ago; they were the black rods that Nagato used to control Pain, and those were made of the same material as Truth-Seeking Balls.

Later, when Naruto activated Six Paths Mode with the help of the Sage of Six Paths, he also created two black rods, the material of which was very similar to that of Pain.

However, the black rods on Pain's body were not Nagato's power; they were brought out by the Outer Path when Nagato summoned it.

Naruto's black rod and Yang Lei's black knife were created by them using their own power.

"It's about to start."

Having made up his mind to act, Yang Lei would not hesitate. With a loud shout, he suddenly flew forward.

飛？

That's right, it flies.

Back in the Land of Waves, Yang Lei had used Truth-Seeking Balls to wrap himself up in order to achieve flight. Later, he realized that he had misremembered the plot; it was only Sasuke who couldn't fly because he received the power of ocular jutsu from the Sage of Six Paths.

Chapter 178

· ·····Requesting flowers·········

Naruto is different; the power of the Sage Mode he obtained actually allows him to fly.

So, Yang Lei put in a lot of effort to figure it out, and finally he found the key to flying. After practicing, he could fly faster than he could run on land.

Currently, he can run at five times the speed of sound on the ground, but due to insufficient physical attributes, he can only maintain around three times the speed of sound at most.

If it were flying, this speed would increase to at least six times the speed of sound.

At that moment, a loud 'bang' was heard. Everyone present felt as if it was just a blur before their eyes, but Yang Lei had already completed his attack and was now standing with his sword sheathed.

"Are we liberated?"

..... ........ .......

A sigh of relief came from behind, and Tobirama Senju said in a cold voice without expression, "Boy, you're not bad, but I'm curious, are you a member of our Senju family?"

The bodies of Tobirama Senju and Hashirama Senju were slowly turning into pieces of white paper and scattering in all directions, no longer showing any signs of regeneration. Just as Tobirama Senju had said, they were freed and no longer controlled by Orochimaru.

"No."

Yang Lei shook his head, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Why do you think I'm from the Thousand Hands family?"

"Because you know Wood Release."

Hashirama Senju stepped forward, blocking Tobirama Senju's view, and smiled at Yang Lei, praising him, "Kid, you're pretty good. You're so young and you already have such strength. I have high hopes for you."

Because he was no longer controlled by Orochimaru, Hashirama Senju was much happier than when he first appeared, both in tone and expression. Especially since the person he fought was so young, yet his strength was already considerable. Although he hadn't used his full strength, he could still get a general idea of ​​Yang Lei's abilities.

"Boy."

Before disappearing, Hashirama Senju patted Yang Lei on the shoulder and said, "Keep working hard. The future belongs to you young people."

"come on."

Unlike the very enthusiastic Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju simply said something indifferently and then disappeared.

(PS: People have been telling me to speed up the Naruto storyline, but I feel that the plot is becoming less than ideal and a bit stiff. What do you guys think? For example, the chapters from the last few days.)

0167 The Collapse of the Konoha Collapse Plan

The only thing that can counter the Edo Tensei state, which can be resurrected indefinitely and possesses unlimited chakra, is the Truth-Seeking Ball.

For example, at this moment, all the Senju brothers who were cut by Yang Lei with the katana made from Truth-Seeking Balls turned to ashes and disappeared, unlike before when they could be resurrected after being cut countless times by Yang Lei with the Kusanagi Sword.

"How is that possible?"

Orochimaru exclaimed in surprise. He had no idea about the wonders of the Truth-Seeking Balls. He thought his killing blow would be unstoppable, but the cruel reality slapped him hard in the face. This was too exciting.

The Third Hokage on the other side was also quite surprised. He knew a little about the Edo Tensei technique, but he didn't know about the Truth-Seeking Balls. He thought that he could only use the Shiki-Seimei to undo Orochimaru's technique, but now it seems that he doesn't have to sacrifice himself.

"I need to ask Yang Lei about his technique later, and then write it into the Book of Sealing."

While thinking, the third generation of "705u.com - Reading Club First Release" easily suppressed Rasa by using the power of the Enma. He was also a Kage-level powerhouse, and he was so old, yet he beat the Fourth Kazekage to the point that he had no power to fight back.

If he hadn't been reborn in the defiled realm, Rasa would have died long ago.

One reason is that Rasa at this time lacked self-awareness and relied entirely on his instincts as a strongman to fight. Naturally, he was extremely rigid and inflexible, and was easily manipulated by the Third Hokage.

Furthermore, the Third Hokage was indeed very strong. His combination ninjutsu was incredibly advanced, especially in close combat. With the Golden Cudgel transformed from the Monkey King, his close combat skills were not to be underestimated.

After all, it was a bit too sudden that the Monkey King could occasionally lend a hand to help the Third Hokage fight while maintaining the Golden Cudgel form.

Luo Sha had clearly blocked the Golden Cudgel's attack, but unexpectedly, he was punched in the eye by a fist that suddenly emerged from inside the Golden Cudgel. This was too unexpected.

"It's time to end this farce."

Yang Lei looked up at Orochimaru, and in his eyes, he actually regarded Orochimaru and Sunagakure's plan to destroy Konoha as a farce.

However, upon closer reflection, even without Yang Lei, the Konoha Collapse Plan would not have succeeded. Apart from the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure and the Third Hokage of Konoha, there were no major losses.

It seems that Orochimaru's goal from the very beginning was to become the Kage of the two villages, which is quite a farce.

If Yang Lei were to put himself in Yang Lei's shoes and plan this attack, he would never target the Fourth Kazekage first. Instead, he would have the Fourth Kazekage use a large-scale area-of-effect attack to tie down a significant portion of Konoha's forces, while he himself would hold off the Third Kazekage. This would allow his subordinates to focus their efforts on destroying Konoha. This would be the true plan for Konoha's collapse.

However, Orochimaru actually killed the Fourth Kazekage, who was also his teammate, first. It seems that when he decided to kill the Third Kazekage, he had already considered the retreat for Konoha.

After all, if Rasa hadn't died, it's uncertain whether Sunagakure would have chosen to end the war in the original story.

"cut."

Orochimaru clicked his tongue in displeasure. Although he appeared disdainful, his slightly narrowed eyes still revealed his fear of Yang Lei's strength.

Especially since this guy also knows Wood Release, which makes Orochimaru even more troublesome.

It's worth noting that Hashirama Senju became famous worldwide for his unparalleled Wood Release technique, and was even revered as the God of Shinobi, demonstrating his formidable strength.

Although Yang Lei only exchanged a few blows with the Senju brothers, and then Orochimaru's mistake led to their unexpected elimination, it was enough for Orochimaru to see his abilities.

At least Yang Lei's Advent of a World of Trees technique could replace Hashirama Senju's technique, which is enough to demonstrate his strength.

"We have no choice but to retreat."

Orochimaru thought to himself that using the Impure World Reincarnation Technique to summon three Kage-level powerhouses in succession had greatly depleted his chakra, and he no longer had the strength to fight.

Despite Yang Lei's appearance of only fifteen years old (he is actually only twelve), his strength has already reached the level of a Kage, or even surpassed it. Orochimaru dares not be careless at all.

"Four people were involved in the school's internal strife!"

Chapter 179

Having decided to retreat, Orochimaru no longer hesitated. His feet tapped the ground repeatedly, his hands forming hand seals, and he used the Body Flicker Technique to instantly appear from the forest at the edge of the Four Purple Flames Formation, where he attacked one of the Sound Four.

"Yes."

All four heard the order to retreat and quickly acted according to the plan, rushing to Orochimaru's side the moment the barrier was lifted, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

"Want to run?"

A cold snort came from behind, and Yang Lei flew up from the spot, hovering above the Tree World that had descended. He aimed his hand at Orochimaru and his group of five, ready to continue his attack. He was determined to seize this opportunity to eliminate Orochimaru completely, a permanent solution, and perhaps even prevent the Fourth Shinobi World War from happening again...

Although Orochimaru's death here would greatly alter the future plot, Yang Lei wouldn't care. His strength had already grown, and as long as it didn't concern Hinata and Sakura's safety, he no longer cared about any so-called plot advantage.

Next, Yang Lei will continue to train hard, and I believe he will soon reach the level of the Sage of Six Paths. If he can combine the chakra characteristics of all nine tailed beasts, his strength will be even greater, and he will eventually reach the level of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Once he reaches Kaguya's level, Yang Lei is confident that he can easily destroy Kaguya, because although Kaguya is known as the progenitor of chakra, she doesn't actually know many ninjutsu. If it really comes down to a fight, he has no fear at all.

Therefore, Yang Lei is not worried at all about changes in the plot. He can adapt to any changes as they may.

Therefore, he now truly harbors murderous intent and wants to kill Orochimaru here. At that time, the world will be much more stable, and at least Kabuto Yakushi will not be able to get up.

"Yang Lei".

Just as he was about to make his move, the Third Hokage suddenly jumped out, stood on top of a tree, looked at Orochimaru fleeing into the distance, then looked at Yang Lei and pleaded, "For my sake, let him go one more time. Sigh!"

In the end, the Third Hokage couldn't help but sigh bitterly. In his heart, he still had feelings for Orochimaru, after all, he was his most beloved disciple.

1.3 In fact, even at the very last moment in the original work, the Third Hokage showed mercy to Orochimaru. If it weren't for his intention, he could have taken Orochimaru's soul with him at the first moment.

He hesitated for a moment, and Orochimaru found an opportunity. The Third Hokage himself was killed prematurely by being pierced through the heart by the Kusanagi sword.

However, judging from the smile on the Third Hokage's face as he fell, it's not hard to see that he was quite satisfied with the outcome. He had protected the village from being destroyed by his beloved disciple, sealed Orochimaru's hands so that they would no longer harm the village, and sealed the souls of the First and Second Hokage into the stomach of the Shinigami. His mission was successfully completed.

But things were different here. Yang Lei displayed overwhelming strength from the very beginning, and seeing that Orochimaru was likely to die there, the Third Hokage had no choice but to speak up and plead for his life.

0168 Another Battlefield

The third generation had done Yang Lei a great favor. At least Asma's favor was greater than anything else. If it weren't for Asma, Yang Lei would have died in that forest when he transmigrated. Even if he didn't starve to death, he would have been eaten by that wild wolf.

So, since the Third Hokage had spoken, Yang Lei shrugged and let go. He watched Orochimaru turn around and glance at him, then give the Third Hokage a deep look with a complex expression before leaving and escaping from Konoha Village in the blink of an eye.

"The third-generation grandfather."

Slowly descending from mid-air, Yang Lei withdrew from all his predicament with a thought, turned to look at the Third Hokage, and asked, "Was what you did worth it?"

"Ugh."

The Third Hokage sighed again, suddenly looking much older. Although he had been old before, his great strength had kept him energetic, allowing him to complete the heavy workload of the Hokage in an orderly manner every day.

But now, he is truly old, like the setting sun with only a last ray of light left.
