Naruto: The Strongest Six in Ninja World

Chapter 17 Orochimaru's Speculation

Danzo glared at Sarutobi Hiruzen unhappily. Although he didn't say anything, he had already cursed the ancestors of the Sarutobi family eight hundred times in his heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a blank expression on his face. After taking a look at the ragged Danzo, his attention shifted to Orochimaru.

"Humph, you actually have the nerve to return to Konoha, you really don't know how to live or die!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's murderous eyes did not cause much deterrence to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru even smiled meaningfully.

"Teacher, I won't die so easily."

"You couldn't kill me back then, and it's the same today."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

Did you have to say it so deliberately in front of Danzo?

The look in his eyes as he stared at Orochimaru gradually became colder.

The right hand hidden under the shadow robe had already quietly clenched the shuriken.

"I never thought that my momentary weakness in letting you go would lead to the situation we are in today."

"I will never let you go this time!"

"Hahaha, really."

Sarutobi Hiruzen had just finished speaking, and before Orochimaru could interrupt, Danzo on the side suddenly laughed.

"Hiruzen, he is your most outstanding disciple. Can you really bear it?"

Orochimaru smiled and said nothing.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at Danzo coldly.

"Danzo!"

"As the leader of Konoha, would I be unable to distinguish right from wrong?!"

"You need to remind me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly threw a shuriken at Orochimaru, and then quickly formed a seal.

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu."

Seeing that the number of shurikens flying towards him suddenly increased dozens of times, Orochimaru retracted his long tongue and smiled slightly.

“This is what a teacher is like.”

As he said this, he calmly formed a seal.

"The Lurking Snake Hand."

He opened his right hand, and dozens of snakes emerged from the wide cuffs and rushed straight towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The dozens of flying shurikens were all shot down by the Shadow Snake Hand when they were one meter away from Orochimaru.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at the giant snake that suddenly flew towards him, without a trace of relief in his eyes.

Of course he knew that this was not Orochimaru's true level.

The attack just now was to test Orochimaru's current strength.

It is obvious that compared to when he left Konoha, Orochimaru is now more mature and experienced after years of baptism.

He also has more combat experience.

Therefore, when facing the shuriken shadow clone this time, he did not use the enhancement technique to dodge directly, but used attack to resolve the attack.

So, Orochimaru, what is your purpose of coming back this time?

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't have time to think about it, and quickly jumped backwards.

Just as he jumped into the air, a huge snake suddenly rushed out from the ground where he had just stood.

The sharp Kusanagi sword in Orochi's mouth was pointed directly at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Seeing the sword approaching, Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly formed hand seals.

"Earth escape, earth flow wall."

In an instant, a tall earth wall rose from the ground.

The sword that was thrust forward was forcibly lifted up from the bottom by the earth wall, deviating from its original trajectory.

Sarutobi Hiruzen seized the opportunity and quickly grabbed the earth wall to stabilize his body and distance himself.

At this moment, Danzo suddenly ran over from the side.

As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen saw him, he saw Danzo taking a deep breath and accumulating a big move.

"Wind escape, vacuum jade."

"Danzo what are you doing?"

The sudden attack left Sarutobi Hiruzen a little confused.

But the next moment, he suddenly understood.

Because at this moment, he suddenly felt a strong air wave coming from the right.

It's Orochimaru.

Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly made a horizontal move to the left, and the moment he distanced himself, he quickly formed a seal.

"Water escape, water dragon bullet."

"Earth escape, earth dragon bullet."

"Earth escape, muddy swamp."

As Sarutobi Hiruzen's complicated hand seals stopped changing, a huge water faucet and earth faucet instantly appeared in front of him, then gathered power and attacked the place where the energy was fluctuating on the earth wall.

At the moment when the thick earth flow wall was penetrated by Orochimaru's unknown attack, the attacks of Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen arrived at the same time.

In an instant, the vortex caused by the wind-attribute chakra drove the power of water and earth to form a muddy spherical vortex at the intersection.

The thing stayed in the air for a second, and then formed a huge swamp the moment it landed.

Seeing Orochimaru, who had just come out, trapped in it, Danzo's mouth curled up slightly.

"Looks like you still have to rely on me, Hiruzen."

Sarutobi Hiruzen snorted coldly.

"You just attacked me without any explanation, and I haven't settled the score with you yet."

"Attack you? Haha, that's not true. I want to attack Orochimaru. Besides, why don't you just stand here?"

"Humph, if I hadn't reacted quickly, your Vacuum Jade move would have really hit me. What's more, you didn't warn me when you attacked just now. I seriously suspect that you were coming for me."

"Danzo, you are very good..."

"boom!"

As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, Orochimaru's figure suddenly turned into ashes in the swamp.

"Shadow clone!"

The two immediately realized that something was wrong.

Only then did I realize that I was careless.

Yes, how could something of this level trap Orochimaru?

However, if it was a shadow clone, why didn't his real body attack when we let our guard down?

Isn't this shadow clone here to lure the enemy?

By the way, his chakra fluctuations have also disappeared.

The two of them continued to make various analyses based on the situation on the scene.

However, the final result was that Orochimaru's shadow clone was actually to attract their attention so as to help the original body leave here.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo, who were tricked, hurriedly ran out of the house.

In no time, both of them jumped onto the roof and looked around, but saw no one.

So the two of them gradually moved closer.

At the same time, two teams of Anbu came running over from the rooftops in the distance.

"Hokage-sama, are you alright?"

"Danzo-sama, I'm sorry we're late!"

Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at each other, took a deep breath, and their excitement finally subsided.

And the trash talk that was about to come out also dissipated.

After all, you can't lose face in front of your subordinates.

"It's okay, the battle is over."

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen say this, the man with the painted mask beside him lowered his head and said, "I am late, please punish me, Hokage."

He bowed, and the three ANBU behind him also bowed.

The three of them said in unison, "Please punish us, Hokage-sama."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled faintly.

"It's okay. The opponent is Orochimaru. In fact, even if you come, you may not be able to catch him."

"He is much more powerful now than when he left Konoha. He can even deceive Danzo and I. Forget it, let's go back."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said nothing more and turned and left with his personal guards.

Danzo stood there motionless, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's departing back, as if thinking about something.

Behind him, the four Root ninjas also remained motionless, just staring at Danzo quietly.

On the other side, Orochimaru quietly revealed half of his body from behind the chimney of a tall building a hundred meters away from Danzo and the others.

Watching Sarutobi Hiruzen walk away, he smiled faintly and licked his lips slowly with his long tongue.

His original mission in coming to Konoha was to annihilate Konoha during the Chunin Exams, and take away the only surviving kid from the Uchiha family.

But he didn't expect that a mysterious moonlight gust would appear later and give him such a surprise.

The information about Danzo that Kabuto gave him also caught his attention, so he wanted to come and see today what kind of research Danzo was doing.

In particular, what did Danzo do with the Sharingan that was taken from the corpses of the Uchiha clan members?

This made Orochimaru very curious.

But I didn’t expect that as soon as he arrived here, Danzo launched a crazy attack.

It was as if he knew someone was coming.

Orochimaru kept recalling everything he had just experienced, but doubts gradually arose in his mind.

How did he know someone was coming?

And the tunnel we saw when we first entered, is that a secret room?

A secret room in the library? What is it used for?

By the way, when you came here, the guard at the door was standing backwards?

Someone got here earlier than me!

So the person he attacked at first was not me, but that person.

Orochimaru suddenly realized, and he immediately understood that the man must have discovered the secret room and taken something away, which was why Danzo was so angry.

By the way, there is also the shadow clone of Sarutobi Sensei. His appearance is very unreasonable, and he doesn’t seem to be the teacher’s shadow clone.

If that's the case, then someone must have used the transformation technique to become Sarutobi Sensei's appearance.

But who could he be?

Orochimaru pondered for a long time but came to no avail.

But just when he was about to give up guessing, something caught his attention.

Kunai.

A kunai with an explosive tag.

He had encountered this kind of fighting method before from someone else.

Moonlight Gale!

Is it really him?

We need to check it carefully.

......

After returning home, Moonlight Gale was sitting on a mat on the floor of his bedroom practicing.
