But this is not the end.

[Earth Escape: Earth Splitting Palm]

The ground cracked, and Master Kakashi and his disciples fell into the crack.

Soon after, a huge shock wave swept across the earth, bringing deadly high temperatures and radiation.

Everyone who has participated in the Third Ninja World War and knows the horror of nuclear bombs, even if they have left that war, will have the habit of carrying various medicines with them.

Iodine tablets that can prevent radiation to a certain extent, drugs that can promote platelet production and prevent severe internal bleeding under radiation, and drugs that maintain cells and DNA were quickly distributed by Kakashi Hatake to Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura.

He looked at Li Zhong, and saw tiny flashes of electricity on Li Zhong's body, as if nothing had happened.

A little radiation is meaningless to people with strong magnetic fields.

Li Zhong waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to worry about him.

He looked into the distance with interest and saw something that interested him very much.

After taking shelter under stress response, Kakashi realized what was happening.

He was extremely anxious at the moment.

When the power of the nuclear bomb dissipated, Hatake Kakashi couldn't wait to get up.

"Please!" Hatake Kakashi said to Li Zhong.

But he did not ask Li Zhong for help.

Although this strange strong man is powerful, they are not related to each other, so Kakashi cannot ask him to take risks with him.

What Kakashi wanted to ask Li Zhong was to ask Li Zhong to keep an eye on the three children and prevent them from running around. Hatake Kakashi was going to Konoha, which had just been bombed by a nuclear bomb, alone.

Ever since people learned about the existence of nuclear weapons during the Third Shinobi World War, the capitals and villages of various ninja countries have developed various countermeasures under pressure.

Konoha is naturally among them.

Although Konoha has suffered a nuclear bomb attack and it is estimated that there have been heavy casualties, with the insurance measures, there should be many people still alive who need help. An elite jonin plays a vital role in both the possible war and the rescue, and he cannot ignore it.

He knew the danger and that he might die, but he did not choose to sit back and watch. Instead, he chose 'death' with a firm look in his eyes!

Because someone once told him, 'Those who don't follow the rules are trash, and those who abandon their companions are even worse than trash!'

As for these three children, although they are also ninjas, theoretically, they also have the obligation to go together.

But Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and Sasuke has the Sharingan. If these two people become mentally unstable because of the tragic situation after the nuclear bomb attack, it will bring even more serious damage to Konoha, which already has a lot of troubles!

Therefore, the best option is to let the two children stay here and he goes alone.

Li Zhong had no objection to Hatake Kakashi's request.

It's just a simple task to keep a few kids from running around.

"Orochimaru!!"

The visitor did not hide his identity.

When the light of the hydrogen bomb faded, everyone present immediately recognized the identity of the person who attacked Konoha!

The great barrier covering Konoha was shattered by the bombardment of the nuclear bomb.

The barrier was able to withstand most of the power of the hydrogen bomb.

But the remaining ones still caused serious damage to Konoha Village.

In just a moment, the casualties it caused were enough to rival the Night of the Nine-Tailed Fox!

But this is not the end. The nuclear bomb will leave residual radiation, which will take ten years or even longer to dissipate. Now that the nuclear bomb has just been detonated, the radiation here is so high that a large number of villagers will quickly die!

Wait, radiation?

The Third Hokage suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

...The radiation level is wrong!

Orochimaru not only detonated a nuclear bomb, he also detonated a... dirty bomb!!

"Teacher, do you like it? This is my gift to you." Orochimaru said with an elegant smile.

Chapter 241: Eternal Snake, Demonic Reincarnation

The dirty bomb is a radioactive explosive weapon that appeared in the Third Ninja World War.

Once it explodes, the pollutants inside will be quickly spread by the shock wave of the explosion.

Can cause terrible damage to creatures within the explosion range.

However, this weapon was stopped from being used by the Hidden Cloud Village not long after it was released. This was because the Hidden Cloud Village was under siege from three other villages, and many wars took place in the Land of Lightning. Using this weapon would cause too much damage to the local environment.

Using nuclear bombs is a last resort, but dirty bombs, which are deliberately poisoned, are far more lethal to civilians than ninjas...

The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning was very dissatisfied with this.

In the past, after Orochimaru "defected", Jiraiya chased him all the way, trying to save something, but Orochimaru refused to communicate.

At that time, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that there was a rift between him and his disciples, the village and Orochimaru. Orochimaru did not understand his decision.

But he didn't expect that the gap would be so deep.

"Orochimaru! Why are you so ruthless! This is..." Standing next to the Third Hokage, the Hokage advisor Utane Koharu looked at the devastated Konoha and the sea of ​​fire, and said in disbelief.

But before she could finish, Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his hand to stop her.

Things have come to this point, and there is no point in saying anything.

The only correct choice now is to get rid of Orochimaru as soon as possible. Only in this way can Konoha be saved as much as possible.

[The art of spiritual communication! ]

As the summoning beast passed down from generation to generation in the Sarutobi clan, the giant monkey was summoned by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"……sorry."

Before attacking, Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

As a teacher, he has an unshirkable responsibility for the situation that has come to this.

This apology was said to Orochimaru, but also to the entire Konoha.

As soon as he finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen acted without hesitation. He transformed Enma into the Vajra Ruyi Stick and smashed it at Orochimaru!

The stick was so powerful and heavy that even steel was fragile in front of it, but Orochimaru did not use any ninjutsu, but just raised a finger.

boom!

Dust rose from the ground and the earth cracked under this force, but Orochimaru was unharmed!

He used only one finger to block Sarutobi Hiruzen's attack.

"Teacher, you seem to have some misunderstanding about me." Sarutobi Hiruzen had no interest in communicating too much, but Orochimaru had something to say.

Over the years, he has let go of some things, and picked up some things again.

"I dropped a nuclear bomb on Konoha not to take revenge on anyone."

"But because... of love!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not shaken by Orochimaru's words and his attacks continued, but Orochimaru still managed to take them all with just his little finger.

"But it seems that you are more concerned about my strength than these." Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen constantly testing his flaws, Orochimaru changed the subject.

"Sure, let me report to the teacher my achievements over the years."

"Teacher, you should also know that I have been thinking about the issues related to life since I was young. I want to exhaust all ninjutsu and find a way to achieve immortality."

He changed his fingers into palms and raised his hands without any ninjutsu, and the strong wind broke Sarutobi Hiruzen's shuriken shadow clone technique.

"During the two Ninja World Wars, I watched my comrades around me die one after another, from living people to meaningless bones. This desire became even deeper."

"In order to achieve immortality, I have exhausted all my wisdom and developed a technique, which I named Reincarnation without Corpse."

He lifted his foot and stepped on the ground, and both the Earth Dragon Bomb and the Yellow Spring Swamp turned into nothingness.

"The power of this technique is very simple. It can transfer my soul to a new body. The life span of my body is no longer limited to the life span of my soul."

"Well, this technique still can't make me immortal. Even the sun in the sky has a lifespan, so the soul naturally has a lifespan as well. Although this lifespan is much longer than that of the body, it still can't satisfy me."

[Five escape techniques: Great Link Technique! ]

After many attempts without satisfactory results, Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to get serious. He used the Shadow Clone Technique to summon four clones to cooperate with each other, and used ninjutsu of five different attributes, namely fire, lightning, water, earth and wind, to attack Orochimaru at the same time!

But Orochimaru still did not use ninjutsu. Instead, he retracted his arm, gathered strength, and threw a punch!

This powerful technique, which was the trump card of the Third Hokage, was no different from the previous attacks under the impact of Orochimaru's punch and was shattered in one blow!

"How can one achieve eternal life?"

"With this doubt, I wandered around the ninja world."

“Finally I got the answer from a fisherman.”

Looking at the teacher with horror in his eyes, Orochimaru continued his story in a calm tone.

"He was just an ordinary poor fisherman, fishing in the rivers every day. Because he had no money, his fishing boat broke down and he had no way to buy a new one. He could only cut wood himself and sell a few nails to replace the planks."

"He has been fishing for decades. Not a single plank of the boat is the same as before, but the boat is still the same boat."

"At that moment, I realized that the way to maintain immortality is to carry out 'self-renewal' while ensuring one's own continuity!"

"I keep replacing the rotten with the newer. Even if the final self is completely different from the original, as long as this continuity continues, I am still myself. I shouldn't just focus on the body as the target of 'replacement'. The soul can also be replaced!"

"Just be careful and preserve your will."

Orochimaru walked slowly towards Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had clearly realized the gap in strength between them and was thinking about whether there were other ways to break the deadlock.

"As for the method of changing souls, it is very simple."

Orochimaru took out a coin. All ninjas knew that nowadays, most of the coins in this world had the inheritance of Alaya Magic on them!

"Through my research on the Alaya Demonic Path, I have modified the Undead Reincarnation Technique. This allows me to take away a part of the opponent's soul while taking away the powerful body of the Demonic ninja!"

"For this new technique, I will name it 'Magic Reincarnation'!"

"What do you think, teacher? Do you think that my body, which was born from the lives of ten thousand ninjas, is strong?!" Looking at his teacher, Orochimaru's eyes were as calm and cold as before, without the slightest fluctuation!

Chapter 242 Alaya Clan

Is it strong?

This kind of power that can destroy the Five Styles: Great Range Bullet Technique with a single punch without any ninjutsu is so powerful that even if Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to refute it, he couldn't open his mouth.

"The strength of the body is only one aspect of the magic reincarnation technique. It is also impeccable in terms of the soul."

"Teacher, I advise you not to think of using techniques such as the Shiki Fuujin. It is meaningless to me now. Other than causing you to fall into the belly of the god of death because of the cost of performing the technique, it cannot hurt me at all."

As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his hand, Orochimaru, who had predicted his teacher's thoughts, spoke.

Just like Orochimaru said before, he returned to Konoha Village because of "love". If the teacher died like this, it would deviate from the result he originally wanted.

"I have cracked the Alaya Demonic Path, where one must sacrifice one's life to gain power!"

"However, the magic reincarnation technique is not a perfect technique. This technique can take away the body and soul of the magic practitioner, but it cannot take away the self of the magic practitioner."

"Because I lacked the step of 'self-integration', my wisdom did not grow due to the power of magic, which really makes me feel regretful."

"But there is still a long way to go. I believe that sooner or later this flaw will be overcome."

Orochimaru's words interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand seals.

The head-on attack of the Five Elements: Great Chain Bullet Technique was ineffective, and the Shikigami Fuushin was unable to defeat Orochimaru. With a powerful body that ignored conventional ninjutsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know what to do next for a moment.

So he could only say: "Orochimaru, what on earth are you doing back here?!"

Orochimaru talked so much, and Sarutobi Hiruzen also realized that he probably did not return to Konoha just for revenge and killing.

Otherwise, during the time he just spoke, with Orochimaru's current strength, it would be enough for him to destroy Konoha several times.

Seeing that his teacher was finally willing to communicate with him, Orochimaru's mouth curled up slightly.

"Share." Orochimaru said.

Next, Orochimaru explained in detail his true purpose amid the raging fire and the despair and wailing of the Konoha ninjas and people.
