Naruto Bloodline Theory? Nothing But Trash

Very soon.

The Water Style defensive ninjutsu she had cast was blown apart by Dark Taijutsu, splattering across the floor with a hiss.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Mingren's heavy punches kept raining down on Orosuke Hime.

He passed through the corridor and continued deeper into the basement.

Mingren believed that Orosuke Hime had to be hiding something else.

To keep this heretic from wreaking havoc on the Ninja World, he had to uncover everything completely.

The candlelight flickered.

Dark shadows shrouded the room.

As they went farther underground, Orosuke Hime's roars gradually weakened until they... became indistinct...

Only the pounding of Dark Taijutsu continued to ring out ever more clearly...

Orosuke Hime's Complete Defeat!

Next morning...

Naruko came to visit again.

Shikamaru had accompanied Naruko.

Sasuke had gone to Kirigakure early in the morning to confirm the situation.

Naruko had come not only to urge them about the Prosthetic Limb, but also because of Kirigakure.

Kirigakure... would surely be destroyed!

Naruko was therefore extremely anxious.

Kabuto Yakushi emerged from within.

"Good morning, Naruko."

Kabuto Yakushi wore a faint, ambiguous smile and looked very relaxed.

"At a time like this, forget the greetings! I want to see Orochimaru!!" Naruko shouted in her loud voice.

"My, my..."

Kabuto Yakushi shrugged.

"Didn't Lord Orochimaru tell you yesterday? She's busy fine-tuning the Prosthetic Limb's performance. Lord Orochimaru has locked herself in the laboratory
