Sasuke looked down at them and called out, "Naruto! You're here too."
It's a shame that Kakashi didn't come, but it doesn't really matter.
They couldn't possibly leave here alive anyway.
Just as Sasuke was scrutinizing the group, Sai pulled out a weapon.
He and Sasuke don't have that much of a bond. Since none of you are going to help, then I'll do it.
"Sai, you really are..." Sakura wanted to stop him, but Sasuke interrupted her.
"Is this guy my substitute? Another naive kid has come in! Talking about protecting the bond between me and Naruto and stuff like that."
It seems the two sides had already clashed before Sakura arrived.
At this point, Sai no longer concealed his intentions and directly stated that his mission was to kill Sasuke, but orders were no longer important.
Let's believe in the bonds Naruto of just once!
[Hozuki Mangetsu: Good grief, judging from what they're saying, this guy named Sasuke seems to be a missing-nin.]
[Mikoto: That's impossible! How could Sasuke become a rogue missing-nin with such a precarious future? Orochimaru must have bewitched him!]
At this point, Mikoto was convinced that Orochimaru was absolutely at fault, and she would never allow her son to have anything to do with Orochimaru again.
But suddenly, before anyone could react Sasuke had already arrived beside Naruto.
Sasuke placed one hand on Naruto's shoulder and the other on the longsword at his waist.
"So this time, on a whim, I decided to take your life!"
Faced with Sasuke's sudden outburst, Yamato didn't even have time to react.
Just then, Sasuke drew his Kusanagi Sword and was about to stab Naruto when Sai appeared and blocked Sasuke's path.
At the same time, he gripped his weapon tightly in his other hand, aiming directly at Sasuke.
"This defensive approach is correct!"
Naruto leaped forward in an attempt to fight back, but Sasuke's Sharingan.
"Chidori Stream!"
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Sai and Naruto were completely unable to resist and were injured by the powerful electric current.
On the other side, Yamato also used his Wood Release to try to bind Sasuke, but the powerful Chidori Stream directly destroyed Yamato's Wood Release.
Seeing Sai and Naruto knocked to the ground by Sasuke, Sakura seemed to have finally made up her mind and rushed straight at Sasuke.
But what met her was Sasuke's cold gaze.
"Damn it!" Yamato realized that Sasuke was truly intent on killing him. Yamato quickly moved between the two and used Kunai to take the hit for Sakura.
However, when faced with a weapon like the Kusanagi Sword, Yamato's Kunai was instantly split in two.
He himself was also struck by a penetrating wound from the Kusanagi Sword, and the electric current carried by the sword had begun to paralyze Yamato's entire arm.
Moreover, the area was expanding because the electric current from the Chidori Stream rendered his entire body immobile.
Sasuke was still showing off at this moment, but he really had the strength. Just now, Yamato, Sai, Naruto, Sakura combined couldn't last a single round against him.
That's enough to prove he has the ability, but what happens next is uncertain.
Sasuke entered Naruto's inner world, the location where Nine-Tails was imprisoned.
[Orochimaru: Something interesting is about to happen. Is Sasuke to break the seal on the Nine-Tails?]
At this moment, Sasuke, having awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan and combined with the power of the Cursed Seal, was incredibly powerful.
After entering Naruto's body, Nine-Tails was too lazy to bother with these Sharingan users. It had seen far too many of them, and a pair of Mitsudomoe simply didn't interest it.
However, Nine-Tails still warned him in the end not to mess with that kid, or he would definitely regret it!
Meanwhile, Yamato, seeing Sasuke momentarily lost in thought, used Wood Release Ninjutsu once more.
"Wood Release · Wood Locking Wall."
Instantly, a shield formed of multiple wooden vines rapidly grew from the ground, protecting Yamato and simultaneously repelling Sasuke.
At this moment, Sasuke stood on the high place, looking down at the group of people with a blank expression.
As Sasuke planted the Kusanagi Sword in the ground, he quickly formed hand seals, and a powerful Chakra began to emanate from his body.
"It's time to find out!"
But a pair of large hands blocked Sasuke.
"Don't use that technique, Sasuke!" Orochimaru reminded him from the side.
"Let go!" But Sasuke didn't give Orochimaru any face at all, and even in front of so many people, he directly rebuked him.
At this point, Orochimaru was seriously hindering his ability to show off, and even Kabuto, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand his tone of voice anymore.
"You're speaking to Lord Orochimaru in such an aggressive tone again."
Who is whose disciple? It seems like Lord Orochimaru is protecting Sasuke like a lapdog.
In other words, we're all on the same side. We don't care if you try to act tough, but if you go out and do that, see if anyone will come after you.
This was perhaps one of the few times in Sasuke's life that he managed to show off without getting beaten up, and it will likely be a turning point in his long history of showing off.
"I have no reason to stop!" Sasuke replied in a very cold tone.
So what if it's Orochimaru? I won't give him any face if he's in a bad mood. He's just a shameless snake.
[Hozuki Mangetsu: Ah, is the eldest son of the Uchiha Clan really that good at putting on an act?]
[Ai: To be honest, if I saw someone like that, I would definitely teach him a lesson.]
Even Sasuke's mother, Mikoto, felt that Sasuke was acting strangely. She had initially thought he would suffer under Orochimaru, but seeing Orochimaru's humble tone, she realized it wasn't what she had expected.
[Ōnoki: Orochimaru, you're a renowned and powerful figure, how can you be so humble!]
[Rasa: You've completely disgraced us Kage Level powerhouses.]
[Orochimaru:??]
Orochimaru was unusually anxious. He hadn't expected this disciple to be such a hot potato. Although he had taught many people before, some were as considerate and kind as Anko, and others were as passionate and idealistic as Nawaki.
This is the first time I've encountered a student who has made me feel so humble.
Is it really true that I, Orochimaru, can't recruit any students? Now I have to beg others for help.
At this point, Kabuto could only try his best to explain.
"Next, you want to deal with that person. These people can help you take care of the Akatsuki."
After all, if other members of Akatsuki interfere in the revenge battle, it will become very troublesome.
After hearing Kabuto's explanation, Sasuke finally lowered his hands.
After taking one last look at Naruto lying on the ground, Sasuke and the others vanished into thin air.
