Naruto: Changing Fate

Is the life of my companion far more valuable than my own... Humph, this is such a childish and stupid idea.

The unexpected answer Naruto gave made Orochimaru stunned for a moment.Then, behind Naruto, in front of the looming white-haired figure that he had not seen for a long time, he murmured to himself in a low voice and looked at Naruto thoughtfully again.

But I don't really dislike this...

If Orochimaru remembers correctly...the closest he has ever witnessed this kind of naivety, foolishness and firm belief was during the Second Ninja War - a place where after every battle, it was always because of his companions. The stupid idiot who takes the damage and lets himself get hurt the most time and time again.Even the overwhelming murderous intention that made Orochimaru's original decision waver a little.

After all, based on Orochimaru's understanding of Danzo and the Root Organization...if Naruto is really a war weapon under Danzo's command, then an unscrupulous cold-blooded villain like Danzo will never give in. The Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, one of the strongest combat powers, possesses such ridiculous and cumbersome superfluous emotions that can affect the success rate of the mission!

Because of this, when making speculations based on this well-known fact, Orochimaru couldn't help but start to doubt...

From the beginning to the end, he never killed anyone.And every time you take action, try to avoid affecting your companions.In order to protect innocent villagers from the poisonous mist, Naruto even paused to deal with the poisonous mist first.Is there something wrong with Nian being defined as a powerful trump card assigned by Danzo specifically to assassinate Jiraiya?

Hehe, maybe... However, death is inevitable in this world!

Naruto, who was always staring at Orochimaru as he spoke carelessly, was naturally keenly aware of the subtle changes in Orochimaru's mood.Then he raised his eyebrows slightly in confusion, and before Orochimaru's sarcastic words, he raised his hand and patted his chest without hesitation, and continued speaking solemnly.

But compared to holding on to regrets all my life and feeling regretful and regretful until my death... I hope that I can live with a clear conscience throughout my life!

A clear conscience...Humph, what a clear conscience...

After seeing the mature and solemn look on Naruto's face that was completely inconsistent with the appearance of a child, the strange feeling in Orochimaru's heart became more and more intense, and the burning anger in his heart finally gradually extinguished and dissipated.Then, while appearing calm on the surface, he quietly changed the original decision to directly kill Naruto into a new plan to test Naruto's true intentions.While spitting out the sharp-edged Kusanagi sword from his mouth, he held it in his hand again.While bending his body and bending his legs, he looked like he was concentrating on launching an attack.

It's easy to talk with your mouth... It's a pity that after forcing you into a desperate situation.Your instinctive reaction is enough to reveal whether these eloquent words are your deliberate disguise or your true inner thoughts...

After all, I still couldn’t escape... I thought we could sit down, drink a cup of tea, and chat for a while~

Seeing Orochimaru turn around faster than flipping through a book, oppression and coercion instantly broke out.And in his words and deeds, it is obvious that he intends to continue fighting with himself.Although for a while, Naruto still couldn't figure out what Orochimaru was thinking.But Naruto treated him like an old friend, responding casually and joking.The preparations at hand never stopped for a moment.So that before Orochimaru could take the initiative, he smiled and performed a familiar hand seal that Orochimaru remembered vividly - the index and middle fingers of both hands were raised, and they were quickly crossed to form a cross in front of him.Obviously it is the necessary seal posture to activate the shadow clone technique!

Well, since Lord Orochimaru, who was once one of the three ninjas of Konoha, is going to teach me, then I won't be polite... The art of multiple shadow clones!

As he spoke, he knew that he had many trump cards that he could not use to his fullest for the time being.So much so that Naruto, who was once suppressed by the offensive of the Shougai clone who only inherited part of Orochimaru's strength, was already quite struggling and was even forced to enter the state of tailed beast transformation.When facing the real Orochimaru, he naturally did not dare to slack off in the slightest.Before he finished speaking, Orochimaru didn't wait for Orochimaru to react, and preemptively completed the simple hand seals required to perform the shadow clone technique.

Bang-!

Because of this, after a soft sound, in just a blink of an eye, the white mist suddenly rose out of the air, completely enveloping Naruto's petite and tender figure.Furthermore, when the Shadow Clone Technique was in effect, dozens of extra strands of aura that were exactly the same as Naruto's appeared in an instant and spread out in the white mist, trying to disrupt Orochimaru's pursuit of Naruto's body. .

oh?In an instant, so many shadow clones were created... It seems that the Jinchuuriki who can become the Nine-Tails is not just a simple child... No, it should be said that your little brat is still young. The appearance is just a disguise, right?

Orochimaru raised his eyebrows slightly and looked like he was just watching your performance quietly. Not only did Orochimaru not rush to attack Naruto.On the contrary, he raised his eyebrows slightly and joked casually to Naruto who was in the white mist, as if he said it casually.

However, your actual combat experience is still too immature after all... You can only play some clever tricks, but there is absolutely no way you can survive from the palm of my hand.

As he spoke, what Orochimaru didn't know was... that in order to elicit Naruto's words, he pretended not to care and said it casually.Orochimaru himself was exposed, despite having seen Naruto's form with his own eyes.But regarding Naruto's true age and appearance, out of rigorous and serious consideration, there is still extremely deep uncertainty!

And this, for someone who is always concerned about the crisis of identity exposure, so much so that he would even fabricate the existence of Namikaze Menma to attract firepower for himself.For Naruto, who has been reluctant to resolve the misunderstanding and regain his rightful identity as the son of a hero, this is undoubtedly the favorable development trend that he cares about the most!

camouflage……?Well, you can say yes, you can also say no...

oh?What kind of statement is this vague?

There is nothing we can do about being vague or something~ After all, Orochimaru-sama and I are currently in a hostile state... In this case, anyone who chooses to reveal his trump card obediently does not have extreme confidence in his own strength. That's an idiot looking for death, isn't it?

Because of this, Naruto, who was shrouded in white mist and was about to think about his next course of action, was just stunned for a moment when he heard Orochimaru's words and questions.Then, like a flash of inspiration, he vaguely captured some key clues that might be beneficial to him.Using both distraction and distraction, he drove the shadow clone to replace the main body, and responded carelessly.In order to bet that Orochimaru cannot easily identify and find the location of the main body from the cover of many shadow clones, it also further misleads Orochimaru's judgment ability.While looking around, he moved one or two of the many shadow clones to a small dark corner that was difficult to detect with the help of the sight-obscuring effect of the white mist.After looking at each other, they sat down cross-legged at the same time.Then, just like an old monk entering samadhi, there was no more movement.

Humph, you are quite eloquent... However, this statement is indeed correct... Speaking of which, you should be ready, right?Then...it's my turn to take action!

Hearing Naruto's evasive response, Orochimaru's last bit of patience was finally exhausted.Before he finished speaking, he was talking as usual with a nonchalant look on his face.Taking advantage of the white mist that originally enveloped Naruto's figure, most of it dissipated under the breeze, so that he could vaguely see Naruto's figure hiding in it.He kicked his legs, which had been tense and accumulating strength, to the ground in an instant.Immediately, under this huge reaction force, the entire body was like a cannonball being discharged from the barrel, and with an indomitable and ferocious momentum, it slammed into Naruto's direction!

Obviously, Orochimaru, who knew that he had an absolute advantage in strength compared to Naruto, planned to use force to defeat Naruto once and for all before Naruto entered the amplified state of tailed beast transformation!

In addition, what Naruto didn't know was... Orochimaru suddenly chose to launch an attack. In addition to the fact that the timing of the attack was gradually becoming mature, the more reason was that time waits for no one!

As mentioned before, Orochimaru was able to accurately locate and lock Naruto's body movements based on the special mark placed on Naruto by the Shogun clone before his death.But it is precisely because of this special mark that it came from the hands of the Xiangzhuan clone who was on the verge of death and exhausted.As a result, the duration of this special mark has inevitably been greatly reduced!

And based on the increasingly weak sensing ability between himself and the special mark... it was enough for Orochimaru to judge that the duration of this special mark was almost reaching its limit.If Orochimaru continues to be so hesitant and does not take action, the special mark will completely lose its effectiveness.I'm afraid that Orochimaru, who can't accurately lock and identify Naruto's body and the location of Naruto's body in the first time, will have to take it silently like he did when he forcibly withstood a rasengan before. What a loss!

In other words, instead of seizing the right moment to take action... Orochimaru seemed to be facing the dilemma of time waiting for no one.

This direction is intended to... Tsk, sure enough, even the Shadow Clone Technique failed to affect Orochimaru's lock... Well, forget it, we can figure out a way to solve this kind of thing later.The most important thing now is to survive Orochimaru's attack!

At the same time, during the charge from Orochimaru, he moved straight towards his own body without any hesitation.This allowed Naruto to be [-]% sure that there must be some small movement in his body that was enough for Orochimaru to lock his body's position.Then he raised his eyebrows slightly and complained softly to himself.Naruto, who had already expected this, immediately saw the shadow clones rushing forward to intercept Orochimaru regardless of their own safety, in order to give the main body a chance to escape.While calmly tapping the ground, he allowed his body to quickly move backwards.While putting his hand into the ninja bag.After a little fumbling, he grabbed a seemingly ordinary shuriken and threw it without hesitation towards the optimal route that Orochimaru must take when he attacks Naruto!

oh?A shuriken...?Is this the best attack method you can come up with after preparing for so long?

Using the sharp edge of the Kusanagi sword in his hand to clear the way, he easily eliminated Naruto's shadow clones blocking the way.Orochimaru's field of vision suddenly widened a lot, and he naturally saw the shuriken that was nothing fancy.Then he raised his eyebrows slightly, looking quite disappointed and dissatisfied, and continued to speak word by word with a hint of anger.

I really don’t know whether I should say you are too naive or you underestimate me... You can never defeat me with just this shuriken!

In his words, he seemed to use actions to interpret the truth of his words.Even though Orochimaru had predicted the flight path of the shuriken, he showed no signs of evading it.Instead, he raised the Kusanagi sword in his hand neither quickly nor slowly, so that if the shuriken continued to attack according to the current flight path and speed.He will definitely be cut in half by Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword, which is powerful enough to cut through metal and iron!

Of course, for every action, I like to prepare several moves in advance.And based on the spoiler cheating of his past life memories, Naruto, who is familiar with every move and style used by Orochimaru... with just an inconspicuous shuriken, there is absolutely no threat to Orochimaru. How could it be possible that the ending, which is almost common sense, could not have been guessed in advance?

Ah...?well--? !That's right...that's right!Ah!How could I have forgotten this!

After hearing Orochimaru's words, Naruto pretended to pout and frown in distress.Then, while staring closely, he saw that the shuriken was about to collide with the Kusanagi sword, causing the attack to be in vain.As if suddenly enlightened, he put on a confident smile.On the other hand, he quickly formed seals with his hands again, and continued speaking sonorously and forcefully.

Well, but this is easy to handle... Since one shuriken is not enough, let's get ten.If ten pieces are not enough, then a hundred pieces...

If a hundred shurikens are not enough, then a thousand!
