Sasuke looked into Naruto's eyes.
Under the gaze of the Eternal Eye, no trace of insincerity was found.
The son of the Fourth Hokage, his parents sacrificed themselves to save the village and became an orphan but did not receive the legacy from his parents. Instead, for various reasons, everyone regarded him as the incarnation of the nine-tailed demon fox.
Being in a different place, Sasuke felt that even he would never let go just like this. Instead, he would be recognized by everyone and be engraved in his bones as a dream.
It would be painful to gain and then lose. This pain even made him directly open the Mangekyō Sharingan.
And never got, always lost, always isolated, always alone...
In such an environment, Sasuke cannot understand that the character born out of repression can become what it is today.
"Let's do it, Sasuke!"
Naruto clenched his fists, with a determined smile showing no fear that he might die.
Sasuke stretched out his hand to touch it, and the next moment their chakras connected.
"Although I can't understand it, I still admire your mentality. Chakra connection, I will pay attention to your status at all times."
"Don't worry... letting a crane tail help is the maximum I can accept. I won't let you die."
…
outside world.
"Roar!!"
Naruto lay on all fours on top of Susanoo's head, red chakra surged out of his body, forming tails waving behind him.
Soon, Naruto's body could no longer be seen clearly, and even his entire face was only an outline.
"Roar!!"
A roar sounded, and six tails condensed from the Nine-Tails Chakra were waving, and streams of substantial Chakra filled the entire battlefield.
Above the wooden figure, Orochimaru was not afraid, but his face was full of excitement.
On the side, the unconscious second-generation Hokage Senju Tobirama was sealed without sacrificing a large number of ANBU, Kai opened the Seven Gates, and cooperated with Kakashi.
The mobility of the Flying Thunder God did not show its true speed under Orochimaru's single-minded use.
But no one was relaxed at this moment. The god-like wooden man was oppressing everyone's nerves.
"Huhuhu..."
After closing the alarm door, Metkai fell directly on top of Kakashi.
However, Kakashi, who was also about to die of exhaustion, could no longer bear the force. The two fell to the ground with a bang, but still raised their heads and looked at the situation in the distance.
"They were all ready to blossom into their final youth, but in the end they were saved."
Kai said and looked at Kakashi: "This brat seemed to have been your student before, right?"
Kakashi lay on the ground and raised his head: "Use the Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails, and then use Naruto as the carrier to release the Nine-Tails Chakra. But in this case...Naruto will be in danger."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone who was still alive looked around.
No one spoke because it was the best thing to do.
Sacrifice a ninja who has reached the pinnacle of Eight Gate Dungeon training, and a Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, it seems that there is no need to choose at all.
As a war weapon, the jinchuriki is needed by the top leaders of the ninja village, but what ordinary people are more afraid of is that the weapon suddenly loses control.
During the Nine-Tails Rebellion, not a single Jonin present had experienced that bloody battle.
But at this moment, seeing the nine-tailed chakra overflowing, the fear hidden in the heart from the life level emerged again.
"Ahem!"
The Fourth Raikage collapsed on the ground beside him. His abdomen was bleeding profusely. Four slugs were sucking on the wound before he could stop the bleeding.
In the battle with the Second Hokage of the Dirty Earth just now, if it hadn't been for his explosion, the losses might have been even greater.
"Sealing the tailed beast into the body creates a Jinchuuriki. This kind of power is the strongest force to intimidate other villages."
"As a weapon, in the eyes of the higher-ups, there is no need to have feelings. Creating public opinion, isolation, and a dark childhood... all of this, in their view, is to make the Jinchuuriki's mind stronger and strong enough to control this..." strength."
"But in fact... the perfect Jinchuuriki requires the Jinchuuriki himself to face his own darkness and bear the negative emotions of the tailed beast with his own light."
"Finally... after being recognized, the jinchuriki and the tailed beast's chakra are connected, and when their hearts are connected, they become the perfect jinchuriki."
The Fourth Raikage coughed up a mouthful of blood again and looked into the distance.
The entanglement between Indra and Asura?
If Sasuke's guess is correct, then it is understandable that Uzumaki Naruto, who inherited Asura's chakra, can maintain his character to this day.
But the same... it would be impossible to win him over to Kumogakure.
…
At the same time, Susanoo's armor spread, condensing chakra to form a giant Nine-Tailed Naruto, wrapping it inch by inch.
"Roar!!!"
An angry roar sounded, and the blue long knife struck down at the wooden man.
"boom……"
The ground burst open again, and the wooden man holding the long knife in one hand suddenly erupted with the other hand.
The Eternal Eye slowly rotated, and the seven tails wrapped by Susanoo twitched, knocking the Bokuto back several steps with one blow.
"Buzz..."
Chakra condensed in the Kyuubi's mouth, and the eight tails covered by Susanoo swept across, binding the wooden man's limbs.
The Tailed Beast Jade condensed and formed, causing ripples in the air around it.
"boom!!!"
A fierce light enveloped the entire wooden figure, and Orochimaru, who was on top of it, turned into soil and disappeared without a trace when the wooden figure's technique was bound.
The circular hole originally created by Super Shinra Tenzheng was once again enveloped by the power of the Tailed Beast Jade.
"Uh-huh!"
Several figures passed by, taking away the wounded who could not move, such as Kakashi and Metkai, but the aftermath of the impact was beyond the reach of ordinary ninjas.
The circular light mask was as red as a flame, exploding suddenly after rapid expansion, and the circular hole in Konoha deepened again.
When the dust settled, the original giant had disappeared. The first Hokage who was reincarnated in the dirty land, even if the sacrifice used was White Zetsu, he did not reach the peak state of his life.
In addition, Orochimaru did not dare to restore the ninja god's consciousness because of Obito's warning, which caused the flexibility of the Bokuto no Jutsu to be greatly reduced.
This is why the Second Hokage, who was reincarnated in the dirt, was still killed by the Flying Thunder God who possessed the Ninjutsu of Time and Space.
If it were Senju Tobirama himself, he would be able to come and go freely unless he could seal off the space without any worries.
"Wow..."
The breeze blew... and ashes like confetti began to gather.
"Seal him!"
"quick!"
Figures flashed into the center of the battlefield. Naruto was covered by Susanoo not far away. When Sasuke pressed his forehead with one hand, the red chakra slowly gathered and disappeared.
Finally, above Susanoo's head, Naruto, who had most of his body burned, fell unconscious.
Sasuke, whose pupil power was too much consumed, also had to remove Susanoo, but the Eternal Eye was still maintained, staring at the recovering First Hokage opposite.
The next moment, the ground was surging.
Earth Escape, Huangquan Marsh.
Cold light flashed past, a long sword passed through Orochimaru's mouth, and blood spurted out from the neck of an ANBU.
After only a moment of hesitation, the intruding seal squad was restrained by the swamp.
He formed a seal with his hands, and the first generation of dirty soil that was recovering beside him dissipated.
Orochimaru glanced at the second generation of the dirty soil who was sealed not far away. A big snake suddenly sprang out from the ground, swallowed it in one bite and disappeared.
"Sasuke-kun...you really keep surprising me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black Amaterasu fire suddenly erupted.
The flames that cannot be extinguished can be activated with sight. Under the scorching temperature, Orochimaru does not suffer at all.
"Wow..."
His whole body turned into soil and shattered inch by inch. From the ground beside him, Orochimaru slowly floated up.
"So Sasuke-kun, even at this time, do you still maintain your fighting power?"
Orochimaru still had a smile on his face: "But how long can you fight like this? After the reincarnation of the dirty land, the undead from the pure land not only possess nearly unlimited chakra, but they themselves are also immortal."
"You can defeat him once, but how long can the power and chakra of your Sharingan be maintained?"
Sasuke looked at Orochimaru indifferently: "You can give it a try..."
After the words fell, both of them fell into silence.
Orochimaru looked at Naruto next to Sasuke, feeling a little hard to make a decision for a moment.
After seeing the complete Susanoo, he became even more obsessed with Sasuke's eyes.
But it is undeniable that the reincarnation of dirty land is not an invincible technique. Infinite chakra takes time to recover, and the amount of one-time burst of individual chakra is still countless.
The wooden man's technique is the limit. Without restoring the deceased's consciousness, even the weakened version of the True Thousand Hands cannot be used.
Orochimaru knew this technique, a technique that could destroy a city with even one strike. It was so devastating that everything within the attack range was destroyed.
And the characteristic of immortality...
The dead reincarnated from the dirty soil need a certain amount of time to recover after being destroyed. In this world, only a sealing technique can solve the problem.
in addition……
The Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki is not dead, but with such injuries, the opponent may be completely devoured by the Nine-Tails in the next moment.
Once the Kyuubi is completely released, and the opponent uses the power of the Eternal Eye to control the Kyuubi, then he will have no chance of winning.
Sasuke, on the opposite side, was not in a hurry to rescue him.
Instead, the Eternal Kaleidoscope is still open, and he is on guard against Orochimaru sacrificing Bai Zetsu again and using the dirty soil to reincarnate.
A figure flashed in the distance, Orochimaru smiled, always avoiding looking at Sasuke.
"So this time, Konoha was saved by Uchiha, who was once destroyed by their own hands. This ending seems very interesting to me."
"I wonder what the old man in the Pure Land would think when he saw this scene. If I had known that the wind would cause such a situation this time, I should have let him come out and take a look."
Sasuke was silent, still staring at Orochimaru.
If given the chance, perhaps all problems could be solved using illusion.
"Next time...next time, I will let the old man see the stupid things he did. If you were still in Konoha, the situation would be completely different."
After the words fell, Orochimaru collapsed to the ground and disappeared.
Sasuke, who was opposite him, frowned but did not relax. From the beginning, he suspected that based on the experience of the Sannin opposite him, after being restrained once, there was no need to face the Sharingan with his true form. Eye.
Especially with the existence of the masked man, Orochimaru must have known that he had obtained Uchiha Itachi's eyes, which were no longer ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan.
Five minutes, ten minutes...
The power of the kaleidoscope's eyes had faded away, and Sasuke was still standing.
Until sixteen minutes later, he glanced at Naruto who was wrapped in slugs and fell to the ground.
…
In a dark cave.
Orochimaru said: "Kabuto...you never let me down."
Behind him, the following Yakushi Kabuto said: "The Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki was acquired by that person, but the overflowing Nine-Tails Chakra has been collected, and there is also the Fourth Hokage..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a ripple in the air.
Masked Obito looked at the two of them: "Orochimaru... why don't you continue?"
Orochimaru turned back: "Although I don't know what your purpose is, if you continue, I think you will get something extraordinary."
"Let me think about it...Ten Tails? It is Pain's will to intimidate the ninja world with the power of the nine tailed beasts combined into one, but it should not be yours."
"As the operator behind the Akatsuki organization, I think you should have your own purpose. Even Payne, who has the Samsara Eye, is probably just your pawn... right? A Fei..."
The masked Obito was silent for a moment, and finally looked at Orochimaru, and the kaleidoscope flashed away.
Whether Orochimaru in front of him is his true form, even with a kaleidoscope, it is still impossible to tell.
"what do you want?"
Orochimaru licked his lips: "I need a lot of White Zetsu, and your ultimate goal..."
Masked Obito smiled disdainfully: "You can't bear that level. To tear apart your soul and use natural energy to develop a technique that can reincarnate, your soul has already been damaged."
"You are not only restrained by illusion, but you have also cut off the path to a higher level."
The road ahead is cut off...
Orochimaru knew the flaws of the Fuzo Reincarnation technique from the beginning.
But as a genius, he didn't think he could make up for such shortcomings. Even if there is no way for now, he can still find a way in the future.
After a long silence, Orochimaru said: "There seems to be someone's tricks in your body... I want to know your secret, in exchange, how about it?"
Means...
Obito's mind immediately flashed to the figure of Madara Uchiha with his head full of white hair.
Besides Hei Jue, is there any backup plan?
"The Fourth Hokage is reincarnated from the dirty soil. When I take out the nine-tailed chakra from his body, I will tell you my purpose..."
Kabuto Yakushi raised his head slightly, no matter how you looked at this condition, it looked like a scam.
But he didn't speak, he trusted Orochimaru's decisions.
"pocket……"
Orochimaru stretched out his hand, and Kabuto placed a seal scroll in Orochimaru's hand.
"This is the Nine-Tails Chakra I just collected. After establishing basic trust, I will create the Fourth Hokage."
