Konoha: On the night of the massacre, I summoned Inuyasha.

He was actually able to fight against a terrifying being like Orochimaru with his own power.

Mr. Sasuke made a seemingly unintentional compliment, which immediately drew a group of little girls to echo it.

Of course!

"Moon Lord is the strongest."

“That’s right, Moon Lord has long surpassed the Five Kage and is the last hope of the ninja world.”

"What Orochimaru? He can only be fierce for a while. In a few years, Yuejun will be able to defeat him completely."

For a moment, the little girls chattered excitedly.

Even Lee and Sasuke couldn't help but chime in.

"Hmph, Naruto will surpass that bastard Yue sooner or later and become Hokage!"

Naruto stepped forward with a resentful look, only to be knocked down by a few delicate little fists.

"Naruto, you idiot, you're daydreaming."

"The moon is invincible."

"Naruto is an idiot, a loser..."

Amidst the chattering, Naruto lay sprawled on the ground, covered in a large patch of footprints.

Mr. Sasuke frowned slightly. Things were not going as he had expected. Under his guidance, the little girls revealed information about Yue.

These little girls blush and adorate when they talk about the moon.

Then came the free praise.

It's completely unlike when they were explaining Orochimaru, they didn't mention any information about Orochimaru's strength.

"........."

Mr. Sasuke opened his mouth, wanting to continue speaking and see if he could attract the kids present to share more information.

His body suddenly stiffened, and he turned his head to look in a certain direction.

Not only him, but more and more ninjas who were discussing something in the arena began to fall silent, their gazes all turning in the same direction.

They're here!

Orochimaru!

Neji, who had always been quite calm, suddenly trembled, the veins around his eyes bulged, and he seemed to tense up.

Orochimaru!

Xiao Li was beaming with excitement, eager to try.

Orochimaru!!!

Shimura Taro's voice was hoarse, and his face was full of resentment.

The others also had different expressions, but all of them looked extremely solemn.

At this moment, in Mr. Sasuke's eyes, a tall and slender figure appeared in mid-air not far away, looking down at everyone with a lazy and nonchalant gaze.

This is a man with long black hair and long, golden pupils.

The purple eyeshadow extended to the sides of her nose, and her pale skin looked as if it hadn't been exposed to sunlight for a long time.

He was dressed in rather tight black clothes, which accentuated his slender and powerful physique.

She wore blue-green magatama-shaped earrings on both ears, which made her look quite elegant and mysterious.

At this moment, he simply floated there quietly, like a raging black hole, swallowing and annihilating all gazes.

And it naturally exudes a noble and invincible aura.

Orochimaru!

Mr. Sasuke murmured to himself.

Although the Orochimaru in front of me was completely different from the one I remembered, even his appearance was quite different.

However, the appearance was exactly the same.

"Is this what Orochimaru of this world is like?"

Feeling the abyss-like presence of the man not far away, Mr. Sasuke felt a slight heaviness in his heart.

Although there has been no battle yet, Mr. Sasuke can already sense how troublesome Orochimaru is.

It wasn't just what I heard from the crowd, nor just the attitude of everyone at this moment, but also the fact that the person in front of me, simply by floating there, exuded the demeanor of a powerful figure.

"Gentlemen, you've arrived just in time."

In mid-air, Orochimaru looked at the crowd with a slightly nonchalant smile on his face.

What came into view was a densely packed group of Konoha ninja, including nearly a hundred Jonin-level ninja.

The number of other ninjas watching the show was well over a thousand.

But in the eyes of this man named Orochimaru, these forces, which were capable of easily destroying any major country in the ninja world, were like ants, densely packed together, yet all insignificant, when viewed from above.

Orochimaru!

"Naruto-sama will definitely defeat you this time!"

Seeing Orochimaru's nonchalant expression, Naruto, who had been getting beaten up by the little girls, was suddenly overcome with grief and shouted loudly.

"Oh, it's Naruto-kun!"

"come on."

Orochimaru glanced at Naruto, a slight smile playing on his lips, becoming increasingly nonchalant.

"Um?

It seems there are some new friends here today.

And they are completely different from you bunch of good-for-nothings.

Just as Naruto was about to rush forward and get beaten up in anger, Orochimaru suddenly looked up and turned to look in the direction where Sasuke was.

Chapter 166 Danzo and Taro's Struggle

Orochimaru, or perhaps a clone of Yue.

At this moment, he was looking at Mr. Sasuke with great interest, his face filled with inquiry and curiosity.

He naturally hadn't recognized Mr. Sasuke's identity yet.

After all, although the appearance of the thirty-something Sasuke is somewhat similar to that of the twelve-year-old Sasuke, it is hard to associate them with the same person.

Moreover, although Yue has some knowledge of Boruto, it's only superficial; she's only watched a few episodes.

Although he knew that Boruto had created this storyline of Boruto and Sasuke going back in time to encounter Naruto in order to capitalize on the popularity of the series, he still found it difficult to connect the familiar-looking man in front of him.

The reason why the man in front of her attracted Yue's attention was mainly because Yue's current perception sensed a slight threat from Mr. Sasuke.

This immediately piqued his interest.

After being invincible for a long time, even though it was just an avatar, it had the power to almost sweep away all beings below the sixth star level.

Now, someone can make him feel threatened, although only through perception, not absolutely.

But that was enough to pique Yue's curiosity.

"The entire ninja world is now nothing more than my playground."

I never expected that besides Yuejun, who could make me take him even slightly seriously and cultivate my interest, there would be someone like you, sir, who can excite me so much today.”

Yue's gaze lingered on Sasuke's face and body, her interest growing ever stronger.

"Is Uncle Eagle really that powerful?!"

At this moment, Naruto was already shouting and yelling. He looked at Mr. Sasuke with disbelief on his face.

"Of course, Mr. Hawk is a ninja who enjoys a great reputation throughout the entire ninja world."

Hearing his father's exclamation, Boruto couldn't help but puff out his chest, as if Sasuke was his real father, someone he admired and longed for.

Immediately, a group of friends surrounded Mr. Sasuke and started chattering away.

Despite their desire to complain, they had never heard of the renowned Mr. Eagle.

However, since it can be acknowledged by an ultimate villain like Orochimaru, it must truly possess strength.

Perhaps I am simply ignorant.

"Kakashi, this Mr. Hawk, you brought him here, didn't you?"

I never expected to get that bastard Orochimaru's approval.

Zabuza looked at Sasuke with a face full of surprise, somewhat unwilling to believe it.

After all, they were considered trash by Orochimaru, while this ordinary-looking man had earned Orochimaru's approval.

You should know that when he first met Mr. Sasuke, he didn't even look at him directly.

As a result, Orochimaru, whom Zabuza considered his eternal rival, has now acknowledged this existence that he had previously ignored.

This made Zabuza, who always had a high opinion of himself, feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"Ah, I never expected Mr. Hawk to be so powerful, even Orochimaru was impressed."

Kakashi chuckled, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Although he guessed that the man in front of him, Mr. Hawk, was the future Sasuke, Kakashi was still shocked that Sasuke could grow to a level that Orochimaru would take seriously.

"Humph!

What a renowned guy.

To the best of my knowledge, I have never heard of such a person in the ninja world.

"What are these cowardly ninjas anyway!"

Suddenly, a cold snort broke the discussion, causing the noise in the room to stop abruptly.

Everyone looked at the source of the sound with complicated expressions.
