The golden light was like the break of dawn, directly slicing through Orochimaru's [Four Black Snakes Formation]. As the barrier of the [Four Black Snakes Formation] shattered, the purple poisonous gas inside began to spread uncontrollably. Even Orochimaru, the creator of this purple poisonous gas, was helpless and could only watch as the gas spread around...

In fact, the purple poisonous gas spewed from Orochimaru's snake clone mouth didn't have much toxicity. It had only one effect: 'paralysis,' a special poisonous gas that caused people to lose control of their bodies!

Without Orochimaru's special antidote, even a Jonin with good physical qualities would need three or four days to regain control of their body. If it were a Chunin or Genin, the time could double...

"Crap!"

Orochimaru thought that with the sturdy barrier of the [Four Black Snakes Formation], he could use the special poisonous gas without restraint. However, he didn't expect that Yuzuru, that monster, would forcefully break it open, causing the purple poisonous gas to leak.

Because this was a special poisonous gas, Orochimaru didn't have many antidotes on hand. If everyone outside were 'taken down' by his poison, it would be both hilarious and troublesome...

Whether it was Orochimaru's teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi, or his companions, Tsunade and Jiraiya, they all knew the characteristics of Orochimaru's special poisonous gas. So, they didn't worry about everyone's safety at first. Instead, they were considering how to handle the aftermath. After all, it was just a birthday party for Tsunade. If they went back like 'vegetables,' it would be difficult to explain to their families!

Therefore, Hiruzen Sarutobi, transformed into a young man, immediately used the [Shadow Clone Technique]. Three shadow clones appeared beside him. Then, under everyone's surprised gaze, they each teleported to four different locations outside the field, and then simultaneously formed the same hand seals.

"Four Violet Flames Formation!"

A purple barrier quickly formed, intercepting the scattered poisonous gas like a cage.

"Orochimaru, quickly retrieve this poisonous gas!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, having completed the Four Violet Flames Formation, immediately shouted at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru glanced at the 'young man' and saw the shadow of his teacher on him. With his meticulous mind, he immediately understood that this was Hiruzen Sarutobi's transformation. So, he nodded and had his snake clones retrieve the poisonous gas.

"Is that 'young man' from the Sarutobi clan? I've never seen him before?"

"He can master such a difficult barrier ninjutsu like the [Four Violet Flames Formation] at this age. It's terrifying!"

"He actually dared to use a commanding tone towards Lord Orochimaru. The most important thing is that Lord Orochimaru seems to be listening to him..."

"This 'young man' must be very close to the Hokage, otherwise he wouldn't dare to speak to Lord Orochimaru like that!"

"That makes sense!"

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's sudden entry immediately caused the onlookers to whisper among themselves, their words filled with curiosity about the 'young man.' After all, apart from the Third Hokage, the Sarutobi clan didn't seem to have any particularly outstanding descendants in recent years...

"Is that Teacher's [Four Violet Flames Formation]?"

Jiraiya recognized the 'young man' as his teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi, at a glance. However, he didn't expect that his teacher would use the [Four Violet Flames Formation] to clean up Orochimaru's mess. This made him feel a little uncomfortable.

That biased old man!

In fact, some sharp-eyed high-level members of the ninja clans could guess the identity of the 'young man,' such as Kagami Uchiha, Uchiha Shinji who had awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and Nara Kentaro, who was naturally intelligent.

After all, few elite Jonin had mastered the [Four Violet Flames Formation], let alone a 'young man'...

As the purple poisonous gas was retrieved by Orochimaru, Yuzuru's figure gradually became clear. He was surrounded by a white-green chakra and suspended in mid-air. His deep, sapphire-blue eyes looked indifferently into the distance, and he held a golden 'lightsaber' in his right hand.

"Another formation?"

Yuzuru slowly raised his head, looked at the barrier of the [Four Violet Flames Formation], and then waved his right hand again. The [Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion] slashed out sharply once more!

Immediately, with a 'boom,' the sealing barrier of the [Four Violet Flames Formation] was instantly sliced open by the 'lightsaber' in Yuzuru's hand, the action as easy as cutting tofu!

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, transformed into a young man, fell silent. This was the [Four Violet Flames Formation] that he had personally cast, and its barrier strength was far stronger than the [Four Black Snakes Formation] cast by Orochimaru. However, it was still easily sliced open by Yuzuru's sword. The barrier of the [Four Violet Flames Formation] looked as fragile as a piece of paper...

Orochimaru was also stunned at this moment. This scene was completely beyond his knowledge. What 'material' was the 'lightsaber' in Yuzuru's hand made of, to be able to cut through formation barriers like tofu?

"What exactly is that 'lightsaber'? It even easily broke through the [Four Violet Flames Formation] cast by the Third Hokage!"

Kagami Uchiha looked intently at the 'lightsaber' in Yuzuru's hand, a trace of excitement in his heart. It was no longer possible for him to greatly improve his current strength. He could only slowly hone his swordsmanship, gradually strengthening it. But if he also had a ninja sword as sharp as that 'lightsaber,' then his strength would immediately double, and he could truly achieve 'kill one person in ten steps, leave no trace for a thousand miles'!

"No way? That Hyuga kid is really a monster! The [Four Violet Flames Formation] cast by Teacher was so easily sliced open?"

Jiraiya's eyes also widened, his face full of disbelief. This somewhat refreshed his worldview. When did kids of this age become so terrifying?

"That Hyuga kid, Yuzuru, seems to really have power comparable to grandfather!"

Tsunade, who had been stunned for a moment, suddenly muttered to herself.

"How is this possible?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment. If he didn't feel the chakra flowing normally in his body, he would have subconsciously thought that he was caught in a genjutsu. How could the [Four Violet Flames Formation] cast by his father look like tofu, easily sliced open by Hyuga Yuzuru?

"Hyuga Yuzuru is definitely the Uchiha clan's greatest opponent in the future!"

Uchiha Shinji thought to himself with certainty.

"Lord Orochimaru, I'll try to use a little less strength next time. I hope you can withstand it."

After slicing open the [Four Violet Flames Formation] with a single sword, Yuzuru slowly floated towards Orochimaru, looking down at him as he spoke. In that instant, Orochimaru clearly felt that he was being looked down upon.

"That's certainly something to look forward to!"

Orochimaru's face darkened slightly, and there was some anger in his hoarse voice. As a disciple personally taught by the Hokage, he had never been looked down upon like this, let alone being 'despised' by a six-year-old kid.

"Summoning Technique!"

Having decided to let loose, Orochimaru didn't care what occasion this was and directly used the Summoning Technique, summoning his contracted summoning beast.

A huge cloud of white smoke exploded in front of Orochimaru, and a three-headed giant snake tens of meters high coiled out from it.

At the same time, Orochimaru also used the Space-Time Ninjutsu to summon the Kusanagi Blade that he had obtained not long ago. This Kusanagi Blade was known to cut through anything, and its hardness and sharpness were unmatched in the Shinobi World. With this Kusanagi Blade for defense, Orochimaru felt much more at ease.

"A summoning beast?"

Yuzuru murmured, looking at the three-headed giant snake, tens of meters tall, in front of him. Then, as if he had thought of something, a playful look appeared on his face for the first time.

"Dealing with summoning beasts should be left to summoning beasts!"

Thinking this, Yuzuru put away the 'lightsaber' in his right hand, and under Orochimaru's gaze, he formed the same hand seals.

"Summoning Technique!"

His fingertip was bitten, and with the crimson blood as a guide, under the power of the contract and the summoning technique, a huge tiger with wings sprouting from its ribs and covered in snow-white fur appeared in front of Yuzuru. It fluttered its wings slightly, its sleepy tiger eyes blankly surveying its surroundings, seemingly surprised that it had suddenly appeared here.

"White Tiger, that three-headed snake is yours to handle!"

"Yes, Lord Yuzuru!"

Suddenly, the familiar voice and aura were captured by the White Tiger. It immediately perked up, glanced back at Yuzuru in this form, and then flew aggressively towards the three-headed snake opposite. It was just a 'worm' with three heads, dealing with it was a piece of cake!

"Is that Lord White Tiger?"

"That's right, that's really Lord White Tiger!"

Hyuga Yoshitoki and Hyuga Mato looked at the White Tiger beast that suddenly appeared in front of Yuzuru with shocked expressions. They were instantly filled with fervor, with a sense of 'star-chasing', as if the White Tiger was a 'belief' to them.

Hyuga Hiashi and Hizashi, the brothers, were even more envious when they saw that it was indeed the White Tiger summoned by Yuzuru. Their white eyes almost gave the illusion of turning into 'Sharingan'...

The Tiger Clan had a contract with the Hyuga Clan since the ancient Warring States Period, but only outstanding members of the Hyuga Clan would be approved to sign the contract and leave their handprint on the summoning scroll.

Of course, it wasn't guaranteed that signing the contract and leaving a handprint on the summoning scroll would definitely summon the White Tiger...

That was because the White Tiger had a very strange temper. It was always the 'active' party, never 'passively' summoned. It would only appear if it wanted you to summon it...

However, even if you couldn't summon the White Tiger, you could basically summon tigers with impure fur colors. Although their combat power was far weaker than the White Tiger, they could still increase the powerful combat power for the summoner!

"That Hyuga brat Yuzuru actually summoned the White Tiger!"

Tsunade had just recovered from her daze when she saw this scene. She had originally wanted to say that Orochimaru was so serious that he had even summoned a summoning beast, but before she could finish muttering, she saw Yuzuru summon the White Tiger of the Tiger Clan!

Her gaze fell on the White Tiger, and the memories buried in Tsunade's mind slowly emerged...

According to her grandfather, before the founding of Konoha, the three most powerful ninja clans in the Warring States Period were the Senju Clan of the Forest, the Uchiha Clan, and the Hyuga Clan.

The power of these three clans was a fact recognized by all the large and small ninja clans in the Warring States Period, and the main reason for the strength of these three clans was the existence of summoning beasts.

The Hyuga Clan's summoning beast was the Tiger Clan, and the most powerful White Tiger could even rival a Kage-level powerhouse. Even the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, had acknowledged the White Tiger's power...

The summoning beast that the Uchiha Clan had a contract with was the Phoenix Clan, an immortal bird that was born to control flames...

And the Senju Clan of the Forest had previously signed a contract with a summoning beast named 'Qinglong' that controlled 'Wood Release'. That 'Qinglong' had the ability to split into sub-bodies, similar to the Slug Clan of the Six Great Sage Lands...

"The White Tiger has already appeared in the world, I wonder when the Phoenix and Qinglong will reappear in the Shinobi World?"

Tsunade muttered to herself.

Since the successive deaths of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, as well as the previous Hyuga Clan Leader, the Qinglong, Phoenix, and White Tiger had never been summoned again...

"I didn't expect the White Tiger to choose that Hyuga kid Yuzuru..."

Jiraiya's face showed a serious expression. Since he had accidentally reverse-summoned himself to Mount Myoboku, one of the Six Great Sage Lands, he had become Mount Myoboku's representative in the Shinobi World. He had learned a lot of information about summoning beasts from the Toad Sage. Among them, the most memorable thing for Jiraiya was the Toad Sage's mention of the Four Divine Beasts: Xuanming, Qinglong, Phoenix, and White Tiger. The Toad Sage's words gave Jiraiya a vague concept of their power, a power that he could not contend with at his current level!

Kagami Uchiha looked at the White Tiger summoned by Yuzuru, and then thought about his own summoning beast, and fell silent...

"It seems that Orochimaru doesn't need to continue probing Hyuga Yuzuru!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi thought to himself as he looked at the summoned White Tiger.

Hyuga Yuzuru, who could summon the White Tiger, could already be judged to have Kage-level strength. After all, the strength of the summoning beast was also considered to be part of the summoner's strength...

For example, Hiruzen Sarutobi himself, he usually liked to summon his old partner, 'Monkey King Enma', during battles...

After Yuzuru gave the order to the White Tiger, Orochimaru saw a flash of snow-white color, followed by a wail. The three-headed giant snake directly collapsed to the ground, leaving behind a hideous blood-red wing mark. The scales there were cracked, the flesh was turned up, and blood was flowing non-stop!

In the next second, the cowardly three-headed giant snake directly and actively canceled the summoning and returned to Ryuchi Cave.

This scene completely stunned Orochimaru. It had only been a few minutes since he summoned the three-headed giant snake, and such a powerful summoning beast was instantly killed?

He could only say that it truly lived up to the name of White Tiger!

Orochimaru thought bitterly in his heart.

"Lord Yuzuru, do you want me to help you get rid of him?"

After easily resolving the three-headed giant snake, the White Tiger still asked Yuzuru in a loli-like female voice.

"Go back, I'll handle the rest myself."

Yuzuru shook his head slightly and said to it.

"Yes, Lord Yuzuru!"

After the White Tiger responded, it only glanced at Orochimaru indifferently before automatically canceling the summoning and returning to its Wind Rift Valley.

"Lord Orochimaru, let's continue!"

Only after the White Tiger disappeared did Yuzuru speak to Orochimaru, once again condensing a dazzling golden 'lightsaber' in his palm.

Orochimaru didn't say a word, but held the Kusanagi Blade horizontally in front of his chest, and a layer of dense sweat appeared on his pale face...
