I Want Both You and the Kusanagi Sword
Just after Orochimaru uttered that question to himself, a faint voice suddenly reached his ears.
"Maybe next time I'll be reincarnated, I'll get a body just like mine."
Orochimaru turned around in fear: Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
Upon discovering that the other party was Shinki, he calmed down, probably because he knew he couldn't escape.
Orochimaru asked, word by word.
"How did you find me? I shouldn't have the Flying Thunder God Mark you left on me..."
Shinki shrugged and explained, "When I gave you the electric shock just now, you became tainted with my Chakra Breath."
"And you should know that I'm a sensory Ninja; tracking my own Chakra is very easy for me..."
After hearing what Shinki said, Orochimaru's lips twitched.
It wasn't because of the kid's vast Chakra perception range, but because of his statement, "I'm a sensory Ninja"...
So, what kind of sensory Ninja could master all elemental ninjutsu?!
What's even stranger is that this kid's Taijutsu and Genjutsu are ridiculously strong!
"Perception type" nonsense, you're clearly an all-rounder!!
After explaining, Shinki reached out and grabbed Orochimaru: "Alright, it's about time you surrendered and came back to Konoha with me to collect your bounty."
Although he knew he couldn't defeat Shinki, Orochimaru still wanted to put up a fight!
With a "whoosh," Orochimaru appeared inside!
The next moment!
"Whoosh!!"
A gleaming, sharp sword emerged from the snake's mouth!
Shinki looked surprised.
All these years, Orochimaru has clearly only been researching ways to develop the body!
Immediately afterwards, Shinki drew Kimimaro's Bone Blade from behind his back!
Orochimaru:∑(✘Д✘๑)
This kid not only killed Kimimaro, but also seized Kimimaro's Bone Blade?!
It's normal for Ninjas to use spoils of war.
But that bone-handled knife is Kimimaro's arm bone!!
Kimimaro is now dead.
Using human bones as weapons—don't you find that horrifying and disgusting?!
"Clang!!"
In the brief moment Orochimaru was distracted, the Kusanagi Sword he spat out collided with the Bone Blade in Shinki's hand!
Shinki retreated after his attack and shot out a Flying Thunder God Kunai from the spot!
After retreating, Shinki discovered that there was a shallow dent on the Bone Blade!
It should be noted that Kimimaro's bones were harder than steel.
The sword that Orochimaru spat out was able to leave marks on the Bone Blade.
This is no ordinary object!
Moreover, the sword was designed like an ancient sword from the Celestial Empire, which made Shinki feel a sense of familiarity.
It's decided!
Snatch that sword and use it as your own weapon! (⌯︎¤̴̶̷̀ω¤̴̶̷́)✧︎
Orochimaru then took the Kusanagi Sword from the snake's mouth.
Then, he noticed the way Shinki was looking at his Kusanagi Sword!
⊙▽⊙
Oh no, this kid has his eye on the sword!
The Kusanagi Sword has been with me for so many years; it's an invaluable Ninja Tools!
It would be so upsetting to have that kid steal it from me!
However, if I could exchange my freedom for the Kusanagi Sword, it wouldn't be so bad...
Orochimaru spoke up, "Can we discuss this...?"
However, Orochimaru hadn't finished speaking.
The next moment, Shinki used the Flying Thunder God Kunai had just thrown to Body Flicker Technique!
"Whoosh!!"
A single sweeping strike!
Orochimaru was caught off guard by this slash and had no time to dodge!
"Sizzle--"
Orochimaru's body was instantly split in two!!
Immediately afterwards, countless tiny snakes appeared at the cuts on his upper and lower body!
The two small snakes wriggled and joined together, bringing Orochimaru's two sides together once more!
Shinki: (°A°`)
You can grow back after being cut in half, truly amazing!
Shinki didn't intend to kill Orochimaru either, so he clapped his hands together.
"Wood Release Binding Technique!"
Instantly, countless Wood Release Vines emerged from the ground, completely enveloping Orochimaru's body like a dumpling!
Orochimaru tried to break free, but the Wood Release Vines of the Shinki tree seemed to restrict Chakra, preventing him from exerting any strength!
After struggling for a while to no avail, Orochimaru looked at Shinki, his anger turning to admiration. "I knew I hadn't misjudged you."
Shinki silently walked to Orochimaru's side, took the Kusanagi Sword from his hand, and intended to study his new Ninja Tools carefully...
With a "whoosh!", the perfectly good Kusanagi Sword suddenly transformed into a slippery, thin snake!
This sudden turn of events startled Shinki so much that he almost dropped it.
However, as a seasoned Ninja, he quickly suppressed his shock and held down the snake's head.
After sensing the snake's Chakra, Shinki turned to look at Orochimaru.
"There's an inexplicable connection between you and the sword."
Orochimaru remained silent.
Then, Shinki silently placed several Sealing Jutsu on the snake.
Soon, following the will of the Shinki, the slender snake transformed back into the shape of a sword.
Shinki calmly sheathed the bone sword and inserted the Kusanagi Sword into the scabbard at his waist...
With the new sword in hand, the bone sword can retire for now.
After doing all this, Shinki hoisted Orochimaru's body and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport away.
As for Sasuke, Shinki didn't bother with him.
That guy clearly doesn't want to go back to Konoha yet, so let him wander around outside...
Konoha.
At the Village Entrance gate.
Because every second counts in the Tenchi Bridge mission, Kakashi, Naruto, Sai Naruto here at dawn that day to prepare for departure...
When Naruto arrived but Shinki was not there, Kakashi looked puzzled and asked, "Where's Shinki? Did something happen to him?"
"That guy is always punctual, he's never late..."
Naruto looked troubled: ε=(´o`)
Hiss~
How am I supposed to explain this to Kakashi-sensei...?
It's said that Shinki single-handedly stormed Orochimaru's lair?
Naruto wasn't stupid; he could see how much the village valued the Shinki.
Therefore, he feared that if he told the truth, the village would judge Shinki for acting without authorization and impose a severe punishment...
Shinki is usually quick to act, so why hasn't he returned for so long? Has something happened...?
After much thought, Naruto honestly confessed what had happened the previous night...
Kakashi: "What?!!ヽ( ຶ▮ ຶ)ﾉ!!"
"He's already stormed Orochimaru all by himself?!"
"If something goes wrong, who will take responsibility?! (`Δ´)!"
The Hokage's Office.
Tsunade was unusually focused on her work.
"Lady Tsunade, Lord Jiraiya has left Konoha again," Shizune asked from the nearby desk.
"Yeah, that guy can't stay in the village any longer, and with the Akatsuki being so active lately, he wanted to go check it out while he was there..."
Tsunade said, frowning.
Although Jiraiya said before he left that he wanted to go out to find inspiration and, incidentally, gather some information...
But Tsunade had a nagging feeling that something was wrong.
"Hopefully it won't come true. Jiraiya's already in his forties or fifties; he should be more mature by Jiraiya."
"When he comes back this time, I promise to go to the Park with him and not talk about politics, just sit for a while... (*￣￣*)"
Tsunade murmured, a slight smile playing on her lips.
At this moment.
"Whoosh--"
A figure flashed in the Hokage's Office!
Shinki arrives with Orochimaru wrapped up like a dumpling!!
Tsunade, Shizune:
!!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ,┌(.Д.)┐!!
