Also, why did Orochimaru say that Ashura was Sasuke's cat? Wasn't Sasuke's black cat the Black Zetsu?
I have a feeling that he seems to be lacking a lot of information for the time being.
"No need. Judging from your stupidity, you've obviously been abused. What's going on here? Weren't you supposed to be going to dismantle the toad's nest? What are you doing in the snake cave?"
Orochimaru avoided Jiraiya with disdain; he had no desire to approach this toad-like fellow.
Moreover, he is currently only a soul, and it's already a good result that he has been able to maintain this soul form without collapsing due to his cultivation over this period of time. He doesn't have time to argue with that guy for the time being.
"There isn't much information about Toad Maru. They're all from the same demon race that survived from back then. I think this place should have some different information. If that still doesn't work, we'll have to go find Slug again."
Sasuke raised his hand and patted the snake tail that Orochimaru had wrapped around his arm, creating a protective shield of spiritual energy that temporarily protected him.
Although Orochimaru can be used as a fighting force, in a place like this, it's best to bring him back unharmed.
The soul state is ultimately not so safe.
"To find the slug, we might have to find Tsunade first. That Tsunade is not someone to be trifled with."
Orochimaru paused for a moment when he heard that they also needed to find slugs, then shook his head, feeling that this matter would be difficult to handle.
He didn't mind Jiraiya; after all, if the guy wasn't good enough, he could just beat him up.
But Tsunade...
Having lost everything, Tsunade now only has the little girl beside her and her summoning beast, Katsuyu, left.
Chapter 306 The Three Ninjas Gather in Tanabata Street
"Let's see how things go first, no rush."
Sasuke glanced at the two of them, then continued walking forward.
He was just looking for some remaining clues from the past, not killing everyone he saw. Look how scared they were.
"Don't cause trouble, or I'll kill you all to grind your teeth!"
Ashura bared his teeth at the two of them, snorted unhappily, and then continued to follow behind Sasuke.
"..."
Orochimaru and Jiraiya exchanged a glance, one helpless and the other bewildered, before continuing to follow.
This time, Sasuke didn't say anything unnecessary, and no one came out to stop him.
They quickly dealt with the large white snake, then sent Ashura to the snake's lair, where he enjoyed a delicious meal before leaving.
When he left, Orochimaru smiled very happily. He was not disappointed at all that Ryuchi Cave had been cleared out and even Manda had been dealt with; on the contrary, he was very happy.
After all, he didn't want the sudden reversal of his spiritual communication to happen again.
After resolving the situation there, everyone accompanied Orochimaru back to Otogakure, where he found a modified Gigai in the laboratory. After putting it on, he finally came back to life.
"It's that simple?"
Jiraiya was completely bewildered. He deactivated his Sage Mode and, upon discovering that Orochimaru had indeed returned to normal, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Orochimaru always caused him a lot of trouble, he was, after all, a partner who had shared life and death with him and fought countless battles together.
Can a person's body really be changed so easily at any time?
"It's simple for me, but it's only for me, so don't even think about it!"
Orochimaru returned to his body, feeling completely refreshed. He simply took Jiraiya's gaze as one of envy.
"Who wants to be like you!"
Furious, Jiraiya temporarily forgot to ask about anything else.
By the time he remembered to ask Orochimaru about the Sound Village and the previous rumors, they had already arrived at the intersection of Tanabata Street.
"Let's go, I'll take you to her."
Jiraiya sighed. There were some questions he was no longer bothered to ask.
In any case, he has seen too many things beyond his comprehension in the past year or two, so what difference does a little more time make?
We'll ask Tsunade about some of the information together after we find her.
"You've maintained contact with Tsunade all these years?"
Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya's state and shook his head in disdain, having absolutely no confidence that he could find Tsunade.
Everyone knows how much Tsunade disliked this guy before.
"Although I haven't been in contact with her, I know where she is."
Rolling his eyes, Jiraiya headed straight for the largest gambling den.
If you want to find Tsunade, there's no need for any other ideas; just search the gambling dens, and you'll definitely find her.
"Bringing a child into a gambling den doesn't seem appropriate, does it?"
After Jiraiya spent half a day finding her, Tsunade looked at Sasuke, who was standing next to the two men, and her eyes clearly held a scrutinizing look.
Although she didn't know why they came looking for her, Tsunade was very unhappy that they were associating with the Uchiha clan.
"Let's go, there are some important things to discuss outside."
Jiraiya chuckled dryly twice, then turned to walk out of Tanabata Street.
"What major event is it, something bigger than the Third Hokage wiping out our Senju clan?"
Tsunade gave a mocking smile, but her steps did not falter; in fact, she walked even faster than Jiraiya.
Although she didn't return to the village, all the news that had happened there, as well as the information Asuma had given before his death about the three founders who destroyed Konoha, had reached her.
"There's still no evidence to prove they were responsible for that incident. I've come to see you today for something else, something that concerns the survival of the world..."
Jiraiya caught up with Tsunade and, after leaving the village, explained to her what had happened.
"So, now that Mount Myoboku is gone, and Ryuchi Cave is gone, you want Shikkotsu Forest to disappear too?"
After Jiraiya explained, Tsunade finally understood why these people had come.
Now that they've dealt with two of them, they want to come and destroy the remaining one of the three holy lands as well. They really dare to dream!
"Let the slug come out. I don't want to lay a hand on you for Orochimaru's sake."
Seeing that Jiraiya's persuasion had failed, Sasuke directly ordered Ashura to take action and subdue Tsunade.
He had absolutely no interest in whether or not to destroy Shikkut Forest.
He only needed some information; as for whether the Wet Bone Forest was littered with corpses, he couldn't care less.
The reason he talked so much at Mount Myoboku was simply because he needed a reason.
"Let go! Let go of me!"
Tsunade's hands were bound, preventing her from breaking free and from using ninjutsu.
Just as she was trying to struggle, Ashura had already placed one hand on her back, and after completing a spatial positioning, he nodded to Sasuke.
"Slug, go back!"
Tsunade looked at the slug that appeared out of nowhere and shouted, but it had no effect.
Because the slug that appeared had already been caught by Sasuke.
"Just tell me what you want, but don't hurt Lady Tsunade!"
The little slug shook its head at Sasuke, clearly very worried about Tsunade being trapped.
"Your memories can be given to you by yourself, or I can take them from you."
Sasuke looked at the large insect in his hand, but instead of attacking it directly, he let it choose for itself.
Slugs can be divided into many, but it's unknown whether the new one carries past memories.
"Memory? You can take it, just take it from me. It's no problem for me. I'm not the original body, so it doesn't matter if I die while extracting it."
Slugs are really generous.
The generous insect left Jiraiya and Orochimaru stunned. They then looked up at the sky in unison to cover up the embarrassment of having said so much to Tsunade without any effect.
"It's just reading, no need to take it away."
Sasuke had Genne retrieve his memories, and then returned the still-dazed slug to Tsunade.
"It's nothing, Lady Tsunade, don't worry, I'm fine..."
The slug clung to Tsunade, trying to soothe her still-angry state, and even jumped around a few times as if to prove it was alright...
Look at their summoned beast, and then think about the toad and snake from before. No wonder those two are completely silent right now.
The difference is enormous!
"Orochimaru, I have some things to take care of right now. If you encounter any problems, go find my brother. Don't let anyone know about me for now. I should be back in about six months..."
Sasuke, holding the black cat and with a Black Zetsu tucked into his sleeve, prepared to go to the moon and release Kaguya Otsutsuki.
However, he couldn't tell anyone else about this, and he also needed to go to Kaguya Otsutsuki to ask about what happened before the Divine Tree descended.
He should tell these people after he has figured everything out.
Konoha, the Will of Fire...
With only six months left, it's time to bring things to a close!
Chapter 307 Graduation Exam: Danzo's Crimes
Leaf.
It's graduation season again, and the ninja academy's graduation exams are underway.
"Next up, Uchiha Sasuke!"
Iruka Umino held the list and called out to each student to perform his clone technique.
"Sasuke Uchiha, you've passed! Next up, Naruto Uzumaki!"
A simple clone technique naturally poses no problem.
This time, Naruto didn't do anything strange; he simply created another version of himself, and that was it—the test was complete.
