I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapters 117 and 119: Wood Release

Itachi Uchiha blew out fireballs of phlox flowers from his mouth, igniting the pieces of the white-scaled serpent's corpse. Beneath each scale of the corpse lay a long white snake.

Amidst the flickering flames, long white snakes coiled into balls, but even this could not withstand the scorching heat of the flames, emitting a disgusting and foul odor with a sweet, fishy smell.

"ah--"

The white-scaled serpent's head, with its long, flowing black hair, emitted a mournful cry amidst the flames.

The monks of Huguo Temple, who were originally hiding at the gate of Huguo Temple and peeking inside, couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle when they heard such a chilling scream.

He chanted Amitabha Buddha's name while anxiously waiting for the police to arrive.

A long white snake narrowly escaped the flames and carefully slithered across the ground, moving with lightning speed toward Tsukimi Inaba, who was lying motionless on the ground.

"First, I'll seize this little girl's body. As for this extraordinary individual, I'll deal with him later. One day, those eyes called the Sharingan will also become my eyes. As long as I possess this demonic technique that allows me to continuously reincarnate and seize other people's bodies, anything is possible!"

Higuchi Orochi, crawling close to the ground, already revealed Tsukimi Inaba's beautiful face.

Taking over a human body is actually quite simple. All you have to do is crawl into the other person's mouth and then pull their soul into the spiritual world created by Higuchi Orochi, and it will all fall into place!

Tsukimi Inaba only felt a foul wind flying from afar, instantly enveloping her head and face.

Upon closer inspection, a small snake with eerie glints in its eyes was about to slither into her mouth and nose, but Tsukimi Inaba's body was still paralyzed, and she couldn't even shout for help.

Am I really going to die here?

He finally gained a second life by making a contract with his Uchiha classmate, and his body, which had been shattered by the curse of a demon, was restored to normal.

This body no longer belongs to her; she is merely holding it in trust.

She has found a reason to live, how can she let this monster take it away so easily again!

Tsukimi Inaba struggled, the snake-shaped curse mark on her face twisting once more, horns sprouting from her hair, and her whole body radiating a dangerous aura.

"drink!"

Tsukimi Inaba's body was still unable to move. She lay on the ground, puffed out her cheeks, and blew a strong gust of air from her mouth, directly blowing the white snake away.

The small white snake hesitated for a moment in mid-air, then its sinister expression flashed before it leaped up, shaking its head and tail, about to pounce on Inaba's face.

"This girl, from soul to body, even a single hair, belongs to me."

Suddenly, a masked man appeared beside Tsukimi Inaba.

His mask was very special; it was like a vortex, only revealing his right eye. He slammed his hand on the ground, and a crimson light wall rose in front of Tsukimi Inaba.

The white serpent burst into flames upon impacting the red light barrier, hissing loudly.

Before being consumed by the flames, the white snake opened its mouth wide, and a smooth, white-scaled monster broke free from its snout.

Higuchi Orochi looked at the person wearing the vortex mask in front of him with suspicion and uncertainty. Now, another uninvited guest had appeared.

Moreover, through the eye holes on the mask, you can see the three tomoe rotating inside, which is actually the Sharingan!

Higuchi Orochi was almost completely confused about the situation.

Just then, Higuchi Orochi suddenly felt a chill down his back as Uchiha Itachi appeared behind him as if by teleportation.

Naruto Uchiha, wearing the same mask as Obito, helped Inaba Tsukimi up from the ground.

With a flick of his sleeve, he took out an antidote he had redeemed from the system's item shop, stuck it into the girl's arm, and injected the medicine.

Naruto Uchiha tucked the strands of hair that had been falling over Inaba's right eye back behind her ear and carefully examined her pure white eyeball.

Is this the white eye?

With just this one eye, he recouped all his previous investments, with interest.

Soon, the poison in Tsukimi Inaba was cured, and she stood up from Uchiha Naruto's arms with a slightly flushed face.

Inaba's expression quickly returned to its original indifference. Naruto Uchiha walked to her side, holding a chakra metal katana in his hand.

Naruto Uchiha handed the katana to Inaba Tsukimi, who accepted it without hesitation, her eyes fixed intently on the neck joint of Orochi Higuchi, seemingly considering how to dismember it.

"Is it one against three now? That's so despicable. And where did you come from, you masked guy? Who are you people?"

Higuchi Orochi spoke with some difficulty, flicking its tongue.

It was already so difficult to deal with just one superhuman with Sharingan, forcing it to fake its death to escape. Now another one has appeared, and it seems that things are really going to turn out badly.

"Let's finish this quickly. If we drag it out any longer, it will attract unnecessary attention. We've already caused enough trouble tonight."

"Understood, Mr. Itachi," said Naruto Uchiha.

Suddenly, one branch after another sprouted from the ground. These branches grew rapidly from the moment they emerged and began to wrap around the group from all directions.

The group reacted quickly, immediately swerving in different directions to avoid the danger.

Inaba had just recovered from her paralysis and was still a little clumsy. She slipped and almost got tangled in a tree branch. Naruto Uchiha grabbed her waist with one hand and then jumped onto the roof of the temple in one go.

"Teacher, run! I'll stall for time!"

A green face emerged from the trees and roared at the Higuchi Serpent.

"Kihara-kun, your sacrifice will never be in vain! I will never forget your kindness."

Higuchi Orochi's chest suddenly swelled up, its mouth bulging as it lay down on the ground, spitting out hundreds of white snakes, which fled in different directions, their original bodies turning into shriveled, molted skin.

Naruto Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha exchanged a glance, simultaneously formed hand seals, and opened their mouths to exhale:

"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"

Fireballs swept away most of the white snakes, but some inevitably slipped through the net.

However, Naruto Uchiha didn't care much. His Spirit Transformation Technique had already recorded Orochi's soul aura, and if he wanted, he could teleport his spirit to Orochi's side in an instant.

Even if it escapes to the ends of the earth, it won't make a difference.

His attention was now drawn to the wildly growing branches covering the ground.

"Wood Release?"
