Naruto: I'm Not a Pokémon

However, a strange strip-shaped object flew in front of him from a distance, swung around in the air, blocked all attacks, and then fell to the ground.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a poisonous snake as thick as a forearm nailed to the ground.

Everyone looked towards the shore in the direction from which the venomous snake flew. Two figures were running quickly from the sea. Looking at the feminine man in front, wearing a Konoha jonin vest and with long black hair, Jianchuan Ju could already feel the breath of death approaching without the reminder of "danger foreknowledge".

The person who came was Orochimaru, the front-line commander of Konoha and one of the three ninjas.

Orochimaru ignored the three frightened little ones and instantly landed next to Nara Suzaku with Yakushi Nono.

He patted the other person's shoulder and spoke gently in his unique hoarse voice.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

It is hard to imagine that the legendary Orochimaru, a man who is close to the top of Konoha, would have such a gentle side.

After hearing Orochimaru's words, Nara Suzaku relaxed and fell down exhausted.

Pharmacist Nono, who had returned with Orochimaru, immediately stepped forward to support the other person, and began to treat the injuries of the last two surviving Konoha ninjas as if no one was around.

Jianchuan Ju grabbed the corner of Zabuza's clothes tightly, fearing that this guy would want to use his short knife to trim Orochimaru's nails.

It was not until then that Orochimaru slowly turned around, looked at the people from the Hidden Mist Village, and spoke casually.

"As expected of the Blood Mist Village, these little guys are quite spirited."

As he said this, Orochimaru stuck out his strange long tongue and licked his lips.

The three little ones did not dare to look back at Kurisai Kushimaru's condition at this time. They could only pray silently in their hearts that this Jonin of the Hidden Mist Village, who was one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, would be able to take up the responsibility and confront Orochimaru as soon as possible.

However, Jianchuan Ju felt somewhat suspicious in his heart, not because of anything else, but because the intensity of the reminder of 'danger foreknowledge' in his mind suddenly weakened a lot at this moment.

How should I put it? It was even more intense than the sense of crisis that Jianchuan Ju felt when she was walking on the side of the road in the commercial street a while ago and a flower pot was about to fall from the building above.

Jianchuan Ju felt that even if he did nothing and just stood there quietly, he would probably only suffer minor injuries.

"Is it that Orochimaru has no intention of dealing with us Genin? Or is there something wrong with his ability to predict danger?"

Just when Jianchuan Ju was confused but still had a glimmer of hope.

"Boom~" x3

His two teammates and Lan Zai fell to the ground without any warning.

Jianchuan Ju found that he seemed to be a step behind and cold sweat broke out on his back.

"Isn't it a bit late for me to fall down now?"

Looking at the curious and amusement-filled expression of Orochimaru opposite him, Jianchuan Ju wanted to slap himself twice.

I had thought too much before, fearing that there might be a member of the Yamanaka clan among the living Konoha Jonin, so I had not lifted the blessing of the 'mysterious protection'.

Now that he had completely ignored Orochimaru's illusion attack, it seemed a little too conspicuous.

"Interesting kid, do you have some special physique?"

As he spoke, Orochimaru walked slowly towards Jianchuan Tachibana.

Just when Jianchuan Ju was thinking whether he had a chance to cast the "Steam Explosion" in front of Aunt Snake, and even if he succeeded, whether he had a chance to escape.

Orochimaru, who seemed to be walking casually, suddenly raised his hand towards himself.

Countless snakes of various shapes and colors emerged from the opponent's sleeves and quickly shot towards Jianchuan Ju.

Chapter 74 Interested

He saw a large number of poisonous snakes rushing towards him.

At this time, Jianchuan Ju had no time to form hand seals. He clenched the short sword behind his back with his right hand. Time seemed to slow down. He stared intently at the trajectory of Orochimaru's attack, preparing to use the "Iai Slash" to cut off the snakes.

However, these poisonous snakes were winding forward in the air, constantly changing their trajectories, making Jianchuan Ju somewhat unsure about his ability to block them all.

But at this moment, a light shout came from behind Jianchuan Ju.

"Water Style*Water Mirror Technique"

The next moment, an oval mirror made of clear water suddenly appeared in front of Jianchuan Ju.

Without waiting for Jianchuan Ju to make any other moves, another thick black iron hook stretched out from his side and hooked on the top of the water mirror. With a gentle pull of the iron hook, the water mirror tilted back at a 45° angle, and a figure identical to Orochimaru was reflected in the water mirror, also using the Hidden Shadow Multi-Snake Hand to collide with Orochimaru's body.

Then the group of snakes summoned by Orochimaru's real body burst into white smoke, and the clones reflected in the water mirror also exploded into water splashes on the ground.

Orochimaru didn't seem to care much about the failure of his attack. Instead, he looked at the green-haired ninja who slowly walked out from behind Jianchuan Tachibana with interest and said with a smile.

"Kirigakure's Yagura, I didn't expect you to be earlier than the intelligence provided."

Karatachi Yagura didn't pay attention to Orochimaru's somewhat teasing attitude. He flipped the stick and slammed the iron hook in his hand into the ground.

He looked at Orochimaru with a serious face.

"The information may not be accurate, Orochimaru."

As Karuji Yagura finished his words, dozens of figures suddenly landed on the beach with the sound of "whoosh~whoosh~whoosh", with the intention of surrounding Orochimaru.

When Jianchuanju saw that the support from Kirigakure had finally arrived, and that it was led by the unexpected Karatachi Yagura, his heart finally settled down a little.

When Orochimaru appeared before, Jianchuan Tachibana was still thinking.

Even if the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon received the information he sent back and was willing to come to support him, he might just end up delivering food to Orochimaru.

Seeing that he seemed to be surrounded, Orochimaru did not panic at all. He even waved his hand to signal pharmacist Nono to continue treatment and told him not to worry.

Seeing this, Karajimaru Yagura seemed to want to provoke Orochimaru's emotions and spoke.

"Orochimaru, if you die here, how long can Konoha's frontline camp last?"

The other Kirigakure ninjas also coordinated and took attacking stances.

Orochimaru ignored all this and instead set his gaze on Jianchuan Tachibana and asked.

"Kid, your situation just now is very interesting. Maybe we can learn more about it next time we meet."

Jianchuan Ju's hair almost stood on end when he heard this.

"What did this guy say in front of so many Kirigakure ninjas? He is trying to get himself killed!"

Jianchuan Ju spoke quickly.

"There's no need for that next time we meet. If you're interested, Mr. Orochimaru, you can go back to the camp and talk in detail. I promise to tell you everything I know."

When Orochimaru on the opposite side heard this, he became more interested in the little kid in front of him.

However, at this time, Orochimaru had not yet experienced the future where he would be killed instantly by Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan illusion.

So he simply thought that Jianchuan Ju had a physique that was highly resistant to illusions, and he had a little desire to study it, but he didn't force it too much. And Goju Yagura also looked at Jianchuan Ju with approval and spoke.

"Orochimaru, there won't be a next time!"

Afterwards, all the Kirigakure ninjas released the attacks they had prepared long ago, and ninjutsu, kunai, and shurikens flew towards Orochimaru in an overwhelming manner.

However, Orochimaru just stood there motionless with a smile on his face.

The next moment, a huge and ferocious snake head broke out of the ground and swallowed Orochimaru, Nonoha, and the three pharmacists who were undergoing treatment, as well as several Konoha corpses nearby.

The giant snake that emerged from the ground withstood the attacks of everyone in the Hidden Mist Village. Only the ninjutsu of Karutagi Yagura and a few ninjas left serious wounds on the giant snake.

Then the giant snake jumped into the sea without looking back, swam rapidly towards the coastline of the Fire Country, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

"Lord Goju, should we chase after him?" asked a senior ninja.

"Forget it, be careful of another ambush."

In fact, when Karutagi Yagura came to support, he never thought that he would meet Orochimaru, and he did not bring many ninjas with him.

After all, the support troops he led had just arrived at the front line not long ago, and most of the ninjas needed a short rest.

It was only because Goju Yagura had some friendship with Team Ao that he rejected the proposal of Xiguashan Puffer Demon and brought his own people to provide support.

It's a pity, if there were more people, or if we brought some targeted ninjas, we might be able to keep Orochimaru.

At that time, we can even seize the opportunity to raid Konoha's front-line camp.

When Jianchuan Ju heard that they would not continue the pursuit, he stared deeply in the direction where Orochimaru and Yakushi Nono left for two seconds.

Then he withdrew his gaze and began to mobilize his chakra to help Lan Zai and the other three to break the illusion. He then ran to Qing, who was still unconscious in the pit, to treat him.

However, Qing's injuries were so serious that they could not be cured on the spot. Jianchuan Ju could only do his best to stabilize his condition.

At the same time, Jianchuan Ju also saw that his fellow medical ninja who came with Karutagi Yagura was treating the injuries of Kurisan Kushimaru who had fallen into coma at some point.

Although Kurishan Kushimaru's arm was seriously injured, he woke up slowly after receiving the other party's treatment.

"Could this guy have pretended to faint after seeing Orochimaru coming?"

However, Jianchuan Ju thought again and thought that with the murderous character of the group of people in the Hidden Mist Village, they probably wouldn't do such a shameful thing. So he simply ignored it and concentrated on treating Qing.

In the end, Qing was unable to wake up due to his severe injuries. Jianchuan Ju and the other two had to make a simple stretcher and carry Qing back to the camp.

On the way back, Karutagi Yagura also specifically looked for Kanegawa Tachibana to ask what Orochimaru meant by what he said before he left.

Jianchuan Jue only vaguely said that he used some secret technique and by coincidence he was able to withstand Orochimaru's illusion attack.

After all, if the truth is that it is a secret technique, the worst that can happen is that you just hand it over to save your life. But if by accident you are really misunderstood as having a special physique and are captured for research, that would be too miserable.

Fortunately, the ninja world still attaches great importance to the intellectual property rights of secret techniques. Even though Jianchuan Tachibana is just an orphan, Karajima Yagura has not shown any intention of asking him to hand over the secret techniques.

Everyone returned to the front-line camp safely.

Chapter 75 Poaching

the other side.

A huge snake covered in wounds jumped out of the water from the coastline of the Land of Fire, and spit out a large amount of soil and several Konoha ninjas including Orochimaru.

After landing, Orochimaru looked at the dying brown giant snake, pulled out the Kusanagi sword from his mouth, and swung it with his hand, relieving the giant snake's pain.

Then with a "bang", the giant snake's body turned into smoke and disappeared without a trace.

"Lord Orochimaru, the main injuries of Nara Jonin and Akimichi Jonin were due to exhaustion of chakra, and the rest of their injuries are not serious."

Yakushi Nono respectfully knelt on one knee and reported the situation to Orochimaru.

"Ah."

Orochimaru nodded indifferently, his mind still recalling that somewhat interesting little kid.

Although illusion was not his strongest skill, the little kid, who had only the strength of a Chunin at most, seemed to have no reaction at all.

It’s a pity that this good research material is a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village. I don’t know if I will have the chance to see him again in the future.

Orochimaru came back to his senses, looked at Yakushi Nono who was still kneeling on one knee, and spoke softly.

"Tell me why this mission failed."

Yakushi Nono organized his words and told Orochimaru in detail what happened today.

"I was careless at the time. I wasn't sure whether the other party had suspected my identity. I was worried that taking action on the spot would alert the enemy. It was not until the signal flare was launched in the camp that I realized the mission had failed."

"Haha, was it that little brat who discovered it? What an interesting little fellow."

Orochimaru licked his lips with some aftertaste and continued.

"Get up. I won't tell Danzo about this. You should help treat the wounded in the medical camp for the time being."

"Thank you, Orochimaru-sama!"

Yakushi Nono stood up respectfully and consciously carried the two unconscious jonin on his back.

However, Orochimaru waved his hand to stop him, and summoned another giant snake to carry away the two people and other corpses.

After returning to the camp, Qing and Kurishan Kushimaru were immediately sent to the medical tent.

Karuta Yagura was clearly here to replace the front-line commander, but as soon as he arrived at the camp, he went to rescue the pursuit team.

At this time, he was not busy handing over the position with the Xiguashan Puffer Ghost. Instead, he accompanied the Jianchuanju team to the medical tent.

However, the other party was the highest person in charge on the front line after all, and Jianchuan Ju and others could not control what the other party wanted to do, so they could only stay quietly with Qing.

Fortunately, doctors on the front line confirmed that although Qing's injuries were serious, they were still curable and there would be no sequelae.

This is similar to the judgment made by Jianchuan Ju himself.

After all, in such a large front-line medical force, there are many people whose medical skills are better than Jianchuan Ju's. Even Jianchuan Ju himself, given enough time, can completely heal Qing's injuries.

Not to mention the current head of the medical corps, who is even better than pharmacist Nonou in terms of medical skills alone.
