In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 169 Orochimaru being blackmailed in his daily life

Above the dome.

At this moment, the Four Purple Flame Formation was already covered by the dense forest created by the First Hokage's Wood Release technique.

It makes it impossible for people to see what is actually happening inside.

In the dense forest.

With a soft "pfft," the third generation suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

As Orochimaru's soul was severed from his hands, the Grim Reaper gradually devoured the souls of both him and Orochimaru's hands. Hiruzen Sarutobi's vision began to blur. He clung to his breath and looked at Chiyo, managing to utter a strained voice, "Why... I clearly sealed your soul, why are you still alive?"

"What? Want to die knowing why?" Qianye smiled and casually tossed out a crow's carcass. "Fine, I'll let you die knowing why."

"You used the Uzumaki clan's super-powerful sealing technique, the Reaper Death Seal, right? It can summon a Shinigami (death god), who will then use its sword to sever the target's soul and devour it, thus sealing the target's soul. The size of the sealed soul depends on the caster, and the target captured by the Reaper Death Seal cannot use the technique."

"The Fourth Hokage used this technique to seal half of the Nine-Tails back then. In fact, I had already anticipated this move from you."

"Don't forget, the title of 'Illusion God' was given to me by you when you were using me. Since you're the Illusion God, using illusion magic to change your vision and make you mistake a crow for me is just a piece of cake. In reality, you only sealed away a crow."

"Otherwise, do you think you can seal me away so easily with your limited power?"

There was one more thing that Chiyo didn't say: even if he were to face a Shinigami, he could still use his Zanpakuto to kill him.

"Damn it!" Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi deflated like a punctured balloon. His eyes gradually dimmed, and he took one last deep look at Chiya before turning his gaze to Orochimaru. With resentment, humiliation, and a trace of master-disciple affection for Orochimaru, he slowly closed his eyes and collapsed.

Meanwhile, Orochimaru, his eyes bloodshot, roared venomously, "Bastard! You old geezer, give me back my hands! You bastard, give them back!"

Just like Danzo, whose arm was severed by Chiyo, Orochimaru's arm was not severed, but his arms were visibly reduced to the charred state that Danzo had left after his arm was reattached.

Seeing that Hiruzen Sarutobi was truly dead, Orochimaru, in a desperate attempt to find a cure, shouted at Chiya, "Chiya-kun, quick! I know you possess ninjutsu capable of severing souls! Quick, help me get my hands back! I'll give you anything you want!"

"Oh ho. I didn't expect you to even know this. Did that old bastard Danzo tell you?" Chiya's face showed a playful smile. "But unfortunately, your hands have already been swallowed by the Grim Reaper."

"Unless someone is willing to sacrifice themselves to summon Death, I cannot take back the souls from your hands."

"And even if someone is willing to sacrifice themselves, no one can guarantee that the Grim Reaper summoned won't be the one that sealed your hands."

"There's nothing I can do."

Hearing this, a flicker of despair flashed in Orochimaru's eyes. At this moment, all he could do was bark helplessly. The burning sensation in his hands, coupled with the cold sweat streaming down his face, made him cry out, "Ah, my arms feel like they're burned! That damned old bastard!"

"Alright, stop cursing. Our agreement has been fulfilled. Hiruzen Sarutobi's death signifies the end of the Konoha Crush plan. Now you should hand over what I need." Chiya beckoned to Orochimaru.

When Orochimaru heard that Chiyo was asking him for the Flying Thunder God Technique, he was so angry that he felt like his lungs were about to explode. His pale face turned blue and purple in turns.

He had seen shamelessness before, but he had never seen anything so shameless.

From the conversation between the Third Hokage and Chiya, he guessed that Chiya seemed to have known about this ninjutsu called "Dead Demon Sealing Technique" for a long time and had prepared defenses and countermeasures in advance.

But I just didn't tell myself.

He watched helplessly as his hands were sealed.

This guy seems to have planned this all along.

And now they shamelessly claim they want to use the Flying Thunder God technique.

This is absolutely inhuman!

"What, trying to back out? That'll make things complicated." Qianye narrowed his eyes, his smile gradually fading. "You've already lost your hands. What if I cut off the soul of your legs too?"

As they spoke, Chiya had already drawn his Zanpakuto, his face shrouded in shadow, and he slowly walked toward Orochimaru like a grim reaper.

As Orochimaru watched Chiya approach, he felt a chill run down his spine. His hands were already useless, and if his legs were to be crippled as well, he was truly doomed.

Left with no other choice, Orochimaru had to swallow his pride and say, "Fine, I'll give it to you."

"You should have done it this way earlier." Qianye smiled, a gentle smile returning to his face, and sheathed his sword.

Meanwhile, outside the dome.

Kakashi knelt on one knee in front of Tsunade, reporting the current situation to her.

"Lady Tsunade... no, Fifth Hokage, this is what happened. The Sand Village has already withdrawn from the village, and all the invading Sound Villagers except for Kabuto Yakushi have been dealt with. Fortunately, the losses suffered this time were not significant, which is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."

At this point, Kakashi glanced out of the corner of his eye at the dense forest within the Four Purple Flame Formation, "Now that the First Hokage and the Second Hokage have been sealed away, only the battle between the Third Hokage and Orochimaru remains undecided."

"What about Chiya? How is Fujiwara Chiya?" Tsunade asked anxiously.

Kakashi was taken aback. He didn't know why the newly appointed Hokage would suddenly be so concerned about Chiyo, this rogue ninja.

However, before Kakashi could reply, Kurenai Yuhi walked over with lifeless eyes and red eyes, saying, "Because Chiya exposed the secrets of the Third Hokage and Danzo, she was ambushed by the Third Hokage at the very beginning of the battle and her soul was sealed by some special sealing technique."

"How could this be?" Tsunade covered her red lips with her hand, her pupils contracted immediately, her eyes were empty, and she recalled the death of her younger brother Nawaki. Her hemophobia, which had been cured after giving birth to Chinatsu, relapsed, and her hands began to tremble slightly.

Once again. Once again, am I going to have to see the person I cherish most die in front of me again?

Just as the two women were heartbroken, the Four Purple Flame Array above the dome suddenly dispelled.

Immediately afterwards, the Sound Four escorted Orochimaru as they emerged from the dense forest.

"Where are you going?" The Third Hokage's direct ANBU who had been repelled by Chiya's chakra saw Orochimaru and the others trying to escape and immediately went to chase after them, but were trapped by Kidomaru, one of the Sound Four, who spat out chakra spider silk.
