"Eh?"
"Then what about me?"
Naruto looked at the person who had suddenly appeared before them. After he had singled out Sakura, Sasuke, and Karin one after another, Naruto pointed at himself and asked curiously.
"Heh, an interesting little brat."
Orochimaru extended his slick tongue and licked his lips as he looked at the four children before him.
He could more or less guess Naruto's identity.
He was on the same team as the Old Man's Final Disciple, his other teammate was the last Uchiha, and their teacher was that brat Hatake Kakashi.
Blond hair, blue eyes.
Naruto's identity was self-evident to Orochimaru.
Orochimaru had done his homework before setting out.
"So..."
"What business do you have with us 'Genin'?"
"Senior Brother."
Sakura shielded Karin behind her, her emerald eyes fixed tightly on the... man before them?
"Little girl, you're quite perceptive."
Orochimaru gave Sakura an approving glance, then pulled out a Scroll of Earth and, beneath the disgusted gazes of the four children, swallowed it whole.
"Come, let's have a battle over the scroll."
Orochimaru extended a hand toward the four children, his eyes filled with provocation.
Sakura silently watched the scene.
If she could help it, she did not want that scroll the Senior Brother before her had swallowed.
It was covered in saliva. So gross...
"Naruto, you..."
"Quit putting on an act!"
Sakura had been about to tell Naruto and Sasuke to take Karin and leave, but before she could finish, a yellow figure charged wildly toward Orochimaru!
Naruto was about to form Hand Seals when Orochimaru moved first. He grabbed Naruto's wrist, directly interrupting his seals, then sent Blondie flying with a kick!
Naruto flew back just as fast as he had charged forward!
What a shameless bastard. A Kage-level fighter bullying a Genin, and even
