Only I can make Konoha Village great again.

Ninjas in the ninja world all know that Orochimaru's ninjutsu is unpredictable and his strength is unfathomable.

But A, as the Fourth Raikage, never fears any opponent.

Especially with Killer Bee, the perfect Jinchūriki, by his side, the two are of one mind and can kill gods and Buddhas alike.

It wasn't until they encountered the Yellow Flash, Minato Namikaze, that they realized there was someone even faster than them, so fast that the two brothers couldn't react and couldn't match his speed at all.

From then on, the Fourth Raikage had another ninja he admired besides his father, the Third Raikage, and was even willing to give up the war with Konoha for him.

But he still believed that any ninja or tailed beast that he could catch up with or defeat was utter trash.

He naturally didn't take Orochimaru seriously, but after actually fighting him today, he discovered that Orochimaru wasn't fast enough, his attacks couldn't break through his defenses, and a single punch from him could make him bleed profusely...

But Orochimaru just won't die no matter how hard he tries!

The Fourth Raikage worked for six hours, and in desperation, he shamelessly killed ordinary Konoha ninjas, hoping to distract Orochimaru and create an opportunity for a fatal blow.

As a result, Orochimaru turned around and poisoned the Cloud Village ninja.

This snake is also morally impeccable!

The Fourth Raikage didn't feel the same sense of helplessness and resignation he had when he encountered Minato Namikaze, but he really didn't know what to do.

At this moment, Killer Bee stopped rapping and said to his older brother, "The legendary Sannin are amazing! Shall I and Hachi play with him for a bit?"

The Fourth Raikage's heart skipped a beat: "The power of the tailed beast, Gyuki?"

"Alright, Killer Bee, you and the Eight-Tails give it a try."

With permission granted, Killer Bee became excited, and the Eight-Tails chakra within him erupted. The eight thick octopus tentacles behind him grew even larger, and in an instant, he completed his half-tailed beast transformation.

Orochimaru slowly lowered his head, a hint of excitement and eeriness flashing in his golden vertical pupils.

"Finally, finally I've been fooled!"

The Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki are both very interesting opponents.

However, Orochimaru had no interest in fighting; all he wanted was scientific knowledge, specifically the flesh and blood of the Eight-Tails.

However, in the previous battles, the Fourth Raikage was undoubtedly the protagonist, not giving Orochimaru a chance to make a move at all.

But now that the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki is going to be the main offensive force, the opportunity has really come!

Orochimaru was overjoyed, but his face remained impassive as he rapidly formed hand seals: "The next opponent is the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, so I'll need to find a big enough helper."

"Summoning Jutsu: Ten Thousand Snakes!"

A massive cloud of smoke exploded instantly, and when it cleared, the enormous Manda appeared at Orochimaru's feet, lifting him to the same height as the fortress.

The monstrous blue-black scales gleamed with a metallic sheen, and its forked tongue flickered incessantly, emanating a terrifying predator-like aura.

But when Manda's crimson eyes saw the Fourth Raikage A and Killer Bee, it trembled and shrank back slightly.

"Orochimaru, you've found a very strong opponent this time!"

"If you want me to help you fight this battle, you'll need at least 200 people as sacrifices, otherwise I won't lift a finger."

Orochimaru said calmly, "Don't worry, once we win this battle, all the Cloud Village ninjas on the battlefield will be your sacrifices."

"But if you don't put in the effort and we lose this battle, you won't get a single penny."

"Hmph, I'll show you just how powerful Ryuchi Cave is!"

Manda roared and lunged at the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee.

Its gaping maw opened wide, its sharp fangs gleaming coldly, and its dark throat writhed, eager to devour the two.

Raikage A's eyes narrowed slightly, and he shouted, "Leave this snake to me, you deal with Orochimaru!"

"Righteous Thunder Sinks, Wrathful Thunder Axe!!"

He leaped high into the air, his entire body surging with lightning chakra, unleashing countless arcs of electricity that transformed into a blinding streak of lightning as he charged toward Manda's head.

Raikage turned in mid-air, his right foot like a giant axe, carrying immense thunder, and slammed down on the head of the monstrous snake.

boom!!

The giant serpent's mouth was forcibly closed by immense force, its sharp teeth colliding with each other, some breaking off on the spot, others sparking blinding flames.

Its massive body was dragged by its head and slammed hard onto the ground, causing the earth to tremble.

The snake was in excruciating pain and its body began to writhe violently.

Killer Bee was not to be outdone. In his half-tailed beast form, he handed his ninja sword to eight tentacles, which he then swung around to form rings of light as he attacked Orochimaru.

The seven ninja swords were imbued with a large amount of lightning chakra, and their blades vibrated at a high frequency, the ear-piercing vibrations echoing throughout the battlefield.

Orochimaru formed hand seals: "Ninja Art: Hidden Shadow Snake Hands!"

Countless tiny venomous snakes surged from his sleeves, rushing towards Killer Bee like a tidal wave.

I don't intend to kill Killer Bee, I just want to distract him.

Killer Bee wielded his ninja sword with impenetrable speed, cutting all the snakes into pieces, only to be surprised to find that Orochimaru in front of him had been replaced by the enormous Manda.

Manda was now completely enraged by the excruciating pain. Regardless of how it had changed opponents, it roared and twisted its massive body, its huge tail lashing out fiercely at Killer Bee.

Killer Bee, in his half-tailed beast form, was unable to withstand the slamming of Flesh Mountain and could only jump to avoid the lashes of its snake tail.

But Orochimaru suddenly darted out from Manda's side, his neck stretching dozens of times longer, and wrapped around Killer Bee's left leg like a real python, forcefully pulling him down.

Just as the giant snake tail was about to crash down, Killer Bee had no choice but to use the Tentacle Substitute Technique, sacrificing one of his tentacles to narrowly escape his restraints.

With a loud bang, the substitute tentacles and the real python were smashed into a bloody pulp.

Also smashed were the rocks on the ground and several Cloud Village ninjas who didn't have time to dodge.

Killer Bee pierced through the smoke and dust, circled behind Manda, and tightly bound Manda's body with its remaining seven tentacles.

At the same time, he gathered the tailed beast's chakra in his mouth, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Manda.

The Raikage, who had just been tricked by Orochimaru, also rushed over. He leaped high into the air, concentrated his Lightning Release chakra in his right palm, and slashed at Manda's vital spot.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Torture Horizontal Dance!"

This move, honed through countless trials, is so powerful that it can sever the left horn of the Eight-Tailed Fox.

If you can hit the giant snake effectively, you will surely kill it on the spot, and may even be able to cut off its head.

Manda, unlike Gamabunta, seeing himself in danger, roared, "Orochimaru, remember my offering!"

Then it voluntarily dispelled the spirit communication spell, turned into white smoke with a "pop," and returned to Dragon Land Cave.

Orochimaru had anticipated this and had no intention of providing assistance. He simply took out a sealing scroll and sealed the Eight-Tails' substitute tentacles.

With this tentacle, this war won't be a complete loss.
