Chapter 57 The Nine-Tailed Fox's Resonance
A white ball of light condensed in Seto Chihiro's hand. In front of the intense white light, not only did the surrounding environment pale in comparison, it also attracted the attention of Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
The spiritual beast tied up by the white hair seemed to sense a great crisis and began to struggle violently.
A cylindrical beam of light flew straight out from his palm. Orochimaru subconsciously jumped to the open space on the side. When he turned around, he found that the beam of light instantly passed through the bodies of two giant snakes, and the giant snakes immediately turned into a wisp of white smoke.
The white beam of light continued to move forward, shooting straight towards the distant cliff, causing an explosion of considerable power.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked his lips: "If I see correctly, this should be the blood elimination unique to the Hidden Rock Village... Dust Release...?"
"This is not Dust Release. This is an interesting little skill that I accidentally discovered when I was studying fire-type ninjutsu."
Seto Chihiro raised her palm, and a white ball of light condensed from her hand again: "Although it is said that the more you know, the faster you die, but in the real world, the more you know, the more likely you are to survive. Why doesn't Orochimaru worry about the situation of the three Jinchūriki? Let's make a bold assumption..."
Jiraiya's face darkened when he heard this. He stood in front of Seto Chihiro, preventing the formation of the light ball: "We are not the time to discuss this issue now. Take Hinata to shelter quickly, and leave Orochimaru to me."
He is in a very complicated mood now. Chasing Orochimaru is his own business, but who could have thought that this kid could master such a dangerous ninjutsu.
Whether it was the death of Tsunade's disciple or Orochimaru being accidentally killed by Seto Chihiro, he couldn't accept it, and this kid's speculation was a bit dangerous...
"Fire escape. Fire bullet!"
Orochimaru used Shadow Snake to shoot down the flying fireball with a frown on his face, but it soon relaxed again. He couldn't help but let out a click of the tongue, thinking that Jiraiya was still the same as before, not seeing things as clearly as a child. He attracted his attention with just two words, and he had already obtained the Sharingan in advance... He didn't see Sasuke this time, but it was time to retreat.
No one knows Danzo better than Orochimaru, and Danzo is also his old customer. Although it is indeed a bit unfriendly to just walk away like this, old customers are meant to be exploited. Anyway, everyone is in a relationship of mutual benefit, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Besides... after becoming Hokage, Danzo will probably kill himself first.
Orochimaru glanced into the distance and saw that the battle between the ninja and the Impure World Reincarnation was still going on. Although the Impure World Reincarnation could successfully pull the dead souls out of the spirit world this time, the technique had not been perfected yet and it was estimated that it would be sealed by the Root in no time.
"Jiraiya, you're still so arrogant. In fact, why don't you just let the brat finish his words?"
"..."
Jiraiya looked at Seto Chihiro behind him. This kid's brain was so flexible, so flexible that it was unexpected.
However, precisely because this kid's brain is too flexible, there are some things that he absolutely cannot be allowed to know now, such as the dark politics of Konoha.
He really didn't react at first, but after this kid talked with Orochimaru, the truth behind it was self-evident.
Although this brat has now officially joined Konoha and is protected by Tsunade, the vague sense of distance that I have felt when interacting with him over the past few days shows that he has not yet truly integrated into Konoha. Despite his maturity far beyond his age, his young heart has never been revealed to anyone else.
Seto Chihiro looked at Jiraiya's complicated expression and knew that some things could not be rushed.
There are no such things as fools in the ninja world. He interrupted himself twice when making bold assumptions, which meant that he already knew what I wanted to say, so he stopped me.
If the other party already knows it, then there is no need for him to say it out loud.
"Master Jiraiya, I'll leave this place to you. I'm going to meet up with Karin, Mihui and the others."
Jiraiya was slightly stunned, then turned around and said, "Don't worry, I will hold Orochimaru back, you can go without worry."
"Ahem, ahem, Hinata-san, I'm sorry." Seto Chihiro clasped her hands together, and a vine emerged from the wall and wrapped around Hinata.
Orochimaru did not stop her. Instead, he watched with interest as Seto Chihiro carried the little girl. He thought that Uchiha Sasuke was the only one in Konoha who could become his disciple, but now it seems that there is a better candidate.
Wood Release...or the purest Wood Release of the Senju clan...This bloodline limit has disappeared from the ninja world since the death of Hashirama Senju. It is even rarer than the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.
Unfortunately, when Orochimaru thought about the three-year cooling-off period for the Reincarnation Technique, the enthusiasm in his heart disappeared by more than half.
Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru's greedy eyes and knew what he was thinking. Seto Chihiro had already taken Hinata away, and it was now up to the two of them to deal with the next matter.
The first and most important thing is to get Orochimaru to cancel the Impure World Reincarnation, but...
Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru, his eyes revealed some complicated emotions, and his voice was a little muffled: "Orochimaru, you have changed a lot. Should I call you Orochimaru or Orochimaru now?"
When Orochimaru heard this, his expression froze for a moment, then he laughed again, his voice somewhat cold: "The body is just a container, and the so-called gender is just an added value of the container. Only eternity is the ultimate meaning of life. I am the immortal Orochimaru, and I will always be."
"Orochimaru, what exactly is your purpose?" Jiraiya looked at his old friend with a hint of pain on his face. Compared to the various thoughts in his heart, he still hoped that Orochimaru could tell him the truth of the matter himself.
"Jiraiya, you are still so indecisive."
Orochimaru saw Jiraiya's current state at a glance. He put his hands behind his back and looked at the Jinchuriki waving a red tail in the distance. He formed a seal with his hands: "If you want to know, then defeat me. The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Fukai will buy me enough time."
At the same time, Konoha's commercial street had lost its former prosperity. The ruins of the walls could be seen everywhere, and the red tail slapped away all the flying ninjutsu.
Although the Anbu led by Kakashi, as well as the cooperation of Konoha's jonin and chunin, and the explanation of the previous Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Fukai, successfully found a way to deal with the two brothers, the personnel transfer took time, and in the end the two brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku reunited.
With a gentle wave of the palm-leaf fan, lightning was released from it. After Kinkaku repelled a team of jonin, he looked at Ginkaku who had transformed into a tailed beast, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Ginkaku, you were forced into this state by the ninjas of Konoha. It's really embarrassing!"
"Humph! If it weren't for the fact that the Golden Rope, the Seven Star Sword, and the Red Gourd couldn't be used individually like the Basho Fan, how could I have been forced into this situation by a group of Konoha ninjas! But... Kinkaku, you can sense it, that guy is also in Konoha."
"It's really interesting. I'm afraid the guy who summoned us didn't expect that the chakra in our bodies would resonate with that guy?"
"Although we have been hit by the ninjutsu of the defeated Nidaime Hokage, but since this village happens to be Konoha, let's have some fun!"
As Kinkaku finished speaking, the same chakra as Ginkaku gradually emerged on his body. The red tailed beast coat floated on his body, and nine red tails appeared behind him.
"Ahhhh!!!"
Hoarse roars came out from the mouths of the two people. According to the perception of the Konoha ninjas, the chakra in the two people's bodies was constantly rising, white bones appeared on the surface of their bodies, and violent red chakra began to dissipate everywhere, and even the air was dyed red.
Yinjiao pinched the white bones floating on his body and applied a little force. The seemingly hard bones unexpectedly turned into a pile of white paper, but they recovered again in less than a second.
He sneered disdainfully: "The forbidden technique of the second generation Hokage is as rubbish as others. It can only withstand the chakra of the Nine-Tails. It's really weak... But, Kinkaku, that guy asked the two of us to let it go. What do you think about this?"
"I don't think it matters. That guy wants revenge just like us. Konoha was once our enemy anyway, so there's nothing wrong in helping it." Kinkaku looked coldly at the Konoha ninjas around him.
The guy they were talking about was naturally the Nine-Tails. As the main fighting force that captured the Nine-Tails, after being swallowed by the Nine-Tails, they relied on eating the meat in the Nine-Tails' stomach for a living, and eventually obtained the Nine-Tails' chakra through this method.
However, even they did not expect that things would turn out like this.
On a tall building in the distance, Kakashi looked at Kinkaku and Ginkaku who were transforming into tailed beasts at the same time, frowning, "Fukai, why did the two of them suddenly burst out with such a powerful Nine-Tails Chakra? This is no longer the level of possessing the tailed beast coat alone, this is already completely close to the tailed beast transformation."
The man named Fukai was a little confused. He pondered for a while and said with certainty: "As the partner of the Third Raikage when I was alive, I am sure that Kinkaku and Ginkaku definitely did not reveal such a powerful Nine-Tails Chakra before they died. They did not enter this posture just now. Could it be because there is a Nine-Tails in your village?"
Because the Nine-Tails hopes to use the two people in front of it to break the seal? Kakashi thought of this possibility in an instant. He glanced at the Hokage Rock, hoping that Tenzo could suppress the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body.
Although the Anbu had not passed on any information, ever since Ginkaku used the Nine-Tails' chakra, Yamanaka Inoichi had felt the Nine-Tails' chakra scattered on the Hokage Rock, and had now rushed over with the Sealing Squad.
"Get out of the way! Kakashi!"
Just as Kakashi was still thinking about the next step to stop the two Jinchuriki himself, Shikaku's voice sounded behind him. Out of trust in his companions, he subconsciously dodged to the side.
He turned around and was shocked to find that Fukai was covered with a red tailed beast coat and was punching towards him.
Fukai's face was full of struggle: "I can't control myself anymore. Orochimaru has controlled me again! Only the sealing technique can get rid of me, Kinkaku and Ginkaku!"
It has to be said that Fukai's sudden change surprised many people. Although he was deprived of the Eight-Tails' Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, he could still use the Eight-Tails' Tailed Beast Chakra. Judging from his aura, he was not inferior to Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
For the Konoha jonin who were in the center of the commercial street and were evacuating civilians, the crisis increased again.
Seto Chihiro carried Hinata Hyuga and ran on the roof, heading towards the interior of Hokage Rock. The eye patch on Hinata's eyes was about to disappear, and her eyes were tightly closed.
"Chihiro-kun, can you put me down? We are far enough away from Jiraiya-sama that we can walk there on our own."
"I'm sorry, Hinata-san. If you feel uncomfortable, please hold on for a while. There's a new situation at Iruka-sensei's place, and I may need to get there quickly."
"Qianxun, my chest feels tight and it's hard to breathe."
Seto Chihiro noticed that Hinata was acting strange. Her face looked unhealthily pale, her breathing was rapid, and her slender white fingers were constantly fiddling with the vines.
Damn it, he was only paying attention to organizing the chakra transmitted back by the clone, so Hinata didn't look uncomfortable at all.
Seto Chihiro hurriedly supplied chakra to Fujiman, making the gap between Fujiman and her body slightly larger. Hinata's breathing also became smoother, and her face became a little red.
"Sorry... Chihiro-kun, I took up your time."
"No, I should be the one to say thank you. After my clone was released, I told me what happened. After you told Iruka-sensei the news, you ran back to the rooftop despite his obstruction." Seto Chihiro moved quickly while speaking. Because the vines became a little loose, she exerted a little force on her arms.
"Didn't Chihiro say that we are companions? Father said that companions should not be easily abandoned..."
Hinata was very happy when she said the first sentence, but when she said the latter part, her eyes began to become dim. Such an obvious change naturally could not escape Seto Chihiro's perception.
"You were very brave today Hinata. If it weren't for you, Lord Jiraiya wouldn't have known that Orochimaru would appear on the roof. Uncle Hyuga would be very happy if he knew."
This sentence obviously played a certain role. Hinata immediately became much more energetic: "Really? Will father be very happy if he knows?"
Seto Chihiro nodded affirmatively: "Don't worry, your father will definitely be proud of you. After this matter is over, Master Jiraiya will probably be very grateful to you and will pay a special visit to the Hyuga clan."
Chapter 58 Fantasy Moment
Jiraiya didn't know that he had an additional task to visit the Hyuga family, but even if Seto Chihiro told him now, he would readily agree. At this moment, he was facing Orochimaru's Kusanagi Sword, Sora no Taiba, and felt a little overwhelmed.
Not only did he need to keep an eye on the ninjutsu released by Orochimaru, he also needed to pay attention to the flying Kusanagi sword. However, even so, he still put his hands together and did not give up on forming the Sage Seal.
After Orochimaru released the Wind Style Breakthrough, he revealed an evil smile: "Haha~ Jiraiya, do you think I can let you successfully enter the Sage Mode? Don't worry about the Jinchūriki anymore. Although there is a little problem now, someone will take care of them all by then."
After dodging the fierce wind escape, Jiraiya paused and asked, "Who is the person you are talking about?"
"Haven't you already had the answer in your heart? Or are you still unwilling to admit that I came here to help him become Hokage."
Orochimaru caught the Kusanagi sword that flew back to him, put it back into his mouth, bit his finger, and then skillfully formed seals in the order of Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei with both hands.
Oops!
Jiraiya frowned. He was only two or three minutes away from entering the Sage Mode. If he used summoning techniques now, the natural energy condensed in his body would be wasted.
He has led Orochimaru to the northeast of Konoha. Just a little further to the left is Konoha's Training Ground No. 44 - the Forest of Death.
But even so... we must not let this guy summon all those snakes in Konoha. That huge body could kill a large number of ninjas just by rolling its body.
Just when Jiraiya was about to give up entering the Sage Mode and decided to send the Ten Thousand Snakes back to the Earth Dragon Cave with one move, several figures jumped up from the surrounding houses. The two figures in front quickly formed seals with their hands, and sounds rang out one after another.
"The Technique of Scattering Thousand Crows!"
"Ninjutsu. Thousand Rains!"
The crows soaring in the sky had flown to low altitude at some point, their black beaks glowing faintly in the sunlight. They attacked Orochimaru with a fierce momentum, but a large number of Senbon had completely blocked his retreat.
In desperation, Orochimaru quickly switched to the ninjutsu Doriuki, and three high walls rose from the roof. Several long snakes stretched out from the top of the walls and bit all the passing crows to death.
Senbon's attack looks fierce, but if the user is not proficient in wind-attribute chakra, he may not even be able to break through the Earth Flow Wall.
"Have the reinforcements arrived yet...? I thought we'd have to wait at least a while."
Orochimaru pushed open the stone wall, looked at the several Konoha ninjas standing in front of Jiraiya, and licked his lips with his tongue.
In terms of numbers, he is not at an advantage, but there are no White-Eye members in this team, and the Death Forest is not far away, so it will be convenient for him to leave when the time comes.
"Leitong, Qingye, Xuanjian, please help me delay the time. Just delay the time."
"I understand, Master Jiraiya!"
After getting the accurate reply, Jiraiya sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and concentrated on collecting the natural energy in the air.
Now with the help of Konoha's senior ninja, we must keep Orochimaru in Konoha no matter what, and we must find out what happened this time.
Only two senior ninjas were left by Jiraiya's side, and the rest of the ninjas all rushed towards Orochimaru. All of a sudden, various ninjutsu emerged one after another, successfully stopping Orochimaru's steps.
"Ninjutsu. Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!"
Orochimaru was lying on the ground, and densely packed long snakes came out of his mouth. These long snakes seemed to be endless, spreading from all corners of the house and quickly moving towards Jiraiya.
The opponent's goal is just to hold him back, so his goal is only to interrupt Jiraiya's entry into Sage Mode.
And just as he expected, Konoha's jonin disappeared from their foothold and began to clear the countless poisonous snakes on the ground.
Orochimaru took the opportunity to form the Unseal with his hands, and two figures exactly like him appeared on the field. The three of them used wind jutsu towards Jiraiya at the same time. In a place where no one could see, a small white snake mixed into the group of snakes and moved silently towards the direction of the Forest of Death.
In the dark room, the root base, located hundreds of meters underground, successfully isolates the roars, fighting sounds, and various explosions from the ground.
The root was quiet at this time, with only two people left on the wooden stairs, moving step by step towards the exit of the root. One was a hooded man wearing sunglasses, and the other was an old man with his right eye covered and a cross scar on his chin.
Danzo Shimura touched his right eye. Now everything was going according to plan. All he had to do next was wait for Hiruzen to come back, control Hiruzen and make himself the Hokage. By then he would make Hiruzen the leader of the Root and let him become the Root of Konoha and feel what it felt like to silently protect Konoha.
And I...must stand in the sun and give a speech to fully explain what kind of person Hiruzen is.
When Danzo thought of this, he quickened his pace. The hooded man behind him sensed his boss's emotions and automatically quickened his pace. On the empty floating staircase, only the sound of footsteps echoed in the space.
As the initiator of this incident, Danzo did not lead a group of Root members to the battlefield and seal all these resurrected ninjas as soon as Kinkaku, Ginkaku and Fukai appeared.
The villagers and ninjas of Konoha are like orphans that can be found everywhere in the ninja world. Only if you give them a little warmth in the most critical moments, they will not only rush to you like moths seeing the flames, but also develop a lot of good feelings towards you.
Only by appearing at the most critical moment can he win the favor of ninjas and villagers, and only in this way can he become the Fifth Hokage.
Tsunade only won the foreign war, and no one saw the village in its critical moment, so becoming Hokage [is not possible].
Lord Danzo Shimura turned the tide, saved the collapsing building, sent the Root to loosen up the people, sealed the Impure World Reincarnation in the critical moment, and became the Hokage.
He had already thought of the first thing he would do after becoming Hokage. He would control the Nine-Tails and go to war with the Sand Village first, teach that traitor a lesson and make him his own younger brother. Then he would go to war with the Mist Village and make the other party his own younger brother.
Then they snatched the Seven-Tails from Takigakure Village. How powerful is this village to have a tailed beast like the Five Great Hidden Villages?
