Tsunade, you're really drunk!

Inside the underground base, Orochimaru's expression suddenly changed.

Itachi noticed this and was about to ask, but was interrupted by Orochimaru.

"The Akatsuki people are here. It looks like it won't be that easy to leave."

After Itachi heard this, the two of them immediately set off, preparing to go to the ground to meet the enemy.

Kimimaro also took a step forward to catch up with Orochimaru.

Orochimaru immediately stopped Kimimaro.

"Kimimaro, the enemy this time is too dangerous, you should evacuate first."

Kimimaro clenched his fists with an unwilling look on his face.

"No, Lord Orochimaru, let me buy you some time. You guys evacuate quickly. I can use the Fern Dance!"

Itachi was silent at this point, not sure what to say.

Orochimaru's expression was deep.

Then he immediately appeared behind Kimimaro and bit his collarbone.

Three magatama immediately spun and condensed.

"I didn't intend to plant the Heaven's Curse Mark on you. If you can withstand this power..."

Kimimaro suddenly felt a piercing pain spreading from the bite mark on his collarbone. The cold and evil chakra instantly devoured him and his consciousness gradually began to blur.

His body began to sway, and within a few seconds, he collapsed to the ground.

Itachi didn't understand the meaning of Orochimaru's action. He thought Orochimaru wanted to sacrifice the child.

"Orochimaru, you're going too far! He's just a child, how could you…"

Orochimaru just shook his head and looked at Kimimaro's figure lying on the ground. His eyes were a little dazed, filled with pity and complicated emotions.

"Although Kimimaro's bloodline is powerful, it is also eroding his body all the time."

"If he can hold on, there is still hope for treatment in the future. If he can't hold on, then this is the only way out."

"Use the Reverse Psychic Technique to send him away."

The next moment, Orochimaru's expression suddenly changed, and aggression and attack reappeared on his face.

It seems like the Leng Jun who ran rampant and toyed with his enemies during the Second and Third Ninja World Wars has reappeared!

"Akatsuki, it's just right. Let's settle old scores and new grudges together, and also try out my new ninjutsu..."

Itachi stopped talking. After learning about Kimimaro's situation, the look in his eyes when he looked at Orochimaru changed.

So you wanted to save this child...

The two of them immediately came to the ground and revealed their figures.

A large number of paper shurikens came directly towards them.

Itachi danced with both hands, quickly formed seals, gathered chakra in his chest, exerted force through his throat, opened his mouth and spit out a huge orange fireball.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

The paper shuriken was burned to ashes, turning into black and white ash that flew in the wind.

"Shhhhhh!"

Countless tiny Senbon flew straight through the fireball and headed towards Itachi.

Itachi did several backflips and jumped back away.

There were actually Senbon mixed in with the paper shuriken? I was careless. I didn't activate my Sharingan just now and didn't notice this.

Orochimaru simply raised his right hand and waved it, and dozens of poisonous snakes immediately gushed out from the sleeve of his right hand.

"Latent Shadow Snake Hands!"

The poisonous snakes danced wildly, blocking all the thousands of poisonous needles.

Itachi also took advantage of this gap to immediately open the three-magatama Sharingan.

The two of them worked together to resist this wave of attacks. With a wide field of vision, they could see the two people opposite at a glance.

Itachi looked at the other person's attire, black background with auspicious clouds, is this the Akatsuki organization that Qianye mentioned?

Qianye said that it is impossible to fight one against many, but now Orochimaru and I are fighting side by side, two against two, the advantage is on my side, so it is not a big problem. What's more, I also have the Mangekyō Sharingan.

A strong wind blew, lifting Orochimaru's flowing and smooth black hair.

Orochimaru looked cold and had a sarcastic smile on his face.

"Konan and Sasori, long time no see. Are you my former companion in the Akatsuki organization?"

"Why is there such a big fuss? They even sent two official members to look for me."

"Is it because you miss me too much that you want to invite me back to Akatsuki?"

Xiaonan's face immediately showed a look of disgust.

This disgusting stinky snake was not found in two bases in a row. I didn't expect that after I finally tracked him down, he was still in the same infuriating attitude as before. It was so disgusting.

Scorpion's opinion of Orochimaru is even more disgusting!

Although both of them are pursuing immortality, Orochimaru is taking a crooked path! He actually wants to achieve physical immortality!

That is a blasphemy against art! Only puppets are eternal and immortal! Orochimaru's idea is completely trampling on his pursuit of art.

When he was in Akatsuki, he hated this guy very much.

Now that he has the chance to kill Orochimaru himself, he will definitely not let it go!

He simply waved his hands in front of him, and ten transparent light blue chakra threads connected to the puppets beside him, directly controlling the puppets to attack Orochimaru.

Xiaonan followed suit, her skin began to turn into pieces of paper, and her whole body turned into a paper angel made of paper.

"Shikizhi Dance!"

The paper turned into a huge wheel that spun at high speed and flew towards Orochimaru and Itachi.

One on the left and one on the right, the puppets and paper wheels surrounded Orochimaru and Itachi on both sides and attacked them directly.

Itachi directly formed seals with his hands, condensed pure and highly concentrated chakra and gathered it at his throat. He formed seals, and a fierce fire dragon immediately gushed out of his mouth.

The fire dragon was flying swiftly, its speed at least five or six times faster than the previous fireball!

"Fire Escape - the art of dragon fire!"

The giant flaming dragon and the high-speed spinning paper wheel were in a stalemate and collided with each other.

The high-speed airflow brought by the rotating paper wanted to extinguish the fire escape, but unfortunately, the chakra concentration of the Great Dragon Fire Technique far exceeded that of the C-level ninjutsu Great Fireball.

What's more, Fire Style is the Uchiha clan's forte, and Itachi is an expert in Fire Style.

The paper wheel was swallowed by the flames bit by bit, and finally disappeared into the air.

The fire dragon spread and danced wildly in the air. After burning the paper wheel, it immediately flew towards Xiaonan in the sky.

Seeing this, Scorpion immediately pulled Fei Liu Hu back and appeared in front of Xiao Nan. He bent his index finger downward and pulled the chakra rope to activate the mechanism on Fei Liu Hu's body.

"Puppetry—Mechanical Light Shield Seal!"

A blue chakra barrier appeared in front of Fei Liuhu.

The fire dragon crashed directly into the blue shield, turning into flames that spread along the shield and ignited the red amber behind the shield.

Itachi blocked the attacks of Konan and Sasori with just one Great Dragon Fire Jutsu.

"It's not that I don't know how to use large-scale ninjutsu, I just don't want to waste chakra."

As he spoke, Itachi glanced at Orochimaru with a look of arrogance on his face.

Orochimaru smiled nonchalantly.

After all, he is still a child of thirteen or fourteen years old, and still so competitive.

……

……

That’s all for now. There will only be two chapters today. It’s the New Year, so I’ll have one less chapter. I just thought about it and I feel so sorry for you guys if I only write one.

I'm wondering, Kimimaro and Orochimaru, or Itachi and Orochimaru, or Itachi, bah bah bah, this won't work.

Have you all received your New Year's money? Hey, give me some~ Remember to urge me to update, give me rewards, and give me five-star praise!
