A muffled groan escaped Itachi's lips; only then did Hiruzen Sarutobi realize that Itachi was not in good condition.
One hand was tightly covering the right eye, making it impossible to see, but the blood flowing from between the fingers clearly indicated a serious problem.
Hiruzen Sarutobi Ren forced him to abdicate, when Ren changed the celestial phenomena, and blood kept flowing from his eyes. He then had a sudden realization.
I just don't understand why Uchiha Yushu seemed completely unaffected at that time!
Maybe he's faking it.
Not only his eyes, but Itachi's Chakra reaction was also quite low at this moment, as Hiruzen Sarutobi, who knew Itachi's usual strength, understood.
Itachi has reached his limit and has lost his fighting ability.
The Impure World Reincarnation demonstrated its shamelessness, and Ai was almost completely restored to her original state.
The reason it's "almost" is because it's not just Impure World Reincarnation that's equally shameless; Amaterasu, which is known for its strongest attack, is no less shameless.
At this moment, the Amaterasu flames were still burning in Ai's chest, but without the support of his eye power, they seemed to be about to be extinguished at any moment.
This seemingly extinguishable Amaterasu flame stubbornly burned and spread at a slow pace.
A's Lightning Release Chakra Mode is ultimately not Tailed Beast Cloak, and he cannot remove the Amaterasu Flame like Naruto did in the original story.
A, who was using all his Chakra Amaterasu spreading, did not attack immediately. It wasn't just A himself that turned to ashes, but also the talismans set up by Orochimaru.
After glancing at the situation on the ground, Ai didn't hesitate and quickly left the battlefield.
Even though Ai is dead, he still cares about Kumogakure and wants to see how the village is doing now.
Most importantly, the intelligence must be relayed back.
Orochimaru was not surprised by A's departure. While dodging Hidan's attacks, he formed hand seals.
As Ai was fleeing, a psychic talisman lit up on her back, and in the next instant, she stood Fudō.
The new talisman once again helped Orochimaru control A!
Sending the information back to Kumogakure was destined to be nothing more than wishful thinking on Ai's part.
This time, Orochimaru did not preserve A's perception of the outside world, and A was completely plunged into endless emptiness.
Orochimaru had regained control of the chess pieces, was not particularly happy; instead, he frowned slightly.
The moment it stopped, the Amaterasu flames on Ai's chest spread rapidly, already burning up to her neck and limbs.
Even though he activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode again, it could only slow down the stubborn spread of Amaterasu's flames.
What an amazing flame!
Amaterasu's peculiar properties piqued Orochimaru's interest, but he wasn't particularly impressed.
Having experienced the Hellfire up close, Orochimaru was still most interested in the Hellfire emanating from Ren.
This account is temporarily unusable.
Orochimaru immediately dispelled A's Impure World Reincarnation, but when he tried to do the same, he found it was too late.
When Orochimaru regained control of A and then took it back.
Tobirama Senju, who turned to ashes just a little later than Ai, also revived.
The moment he regained consciousness, Tobirama Senju realized he could control himself.
Although the Amaterasu flames on his left shoulder continued to spread, Tobirama Senju paid no attention to them.
Using his still-functioning right hand, he formed a hand seal and directly removed the psychic talisman from his back.
He then formed a hand seal with one hand, and pressed it onto his left shoulder after completing the seal.
"Fire Sealing Method!"
The Amaterasu flames that had spread to half of his body shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tobirama Senju did not stop; he continued operating.
"Impure World Reincarnation, release!"
Tobirama Senju had already completed his operation, while Orochimaru's release was only just completed, so it was naturally useless.
The first bug in the Shinobi World was born. Theoretically, as long as Tobirama Senju didn't want to go to the Pure Land, he could completely say goodbye to the Pure Land because of his Flying Thunder God technique.
Tobirama, who was locked in the dark Tobirama, didn't know what had happened, but since he was able to break free of control, it could only be someone present. He glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi Uchiha.
Judging from Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan in his left eye and his current state, Tobirama Senju understood whose contribution it was.
"Uchiha Clan brats, and Hiruzen Sarutobi too, well done!"
The praise from Tobirama Senju, coupled with his previous battles alongside Itachi, gave Hiruzen Sarutobi a sense of temporal dislocation, as if he had returned to that era of war and chaos.
Following behind their teacher, they were invincible.
All the good things are left in yesterday—familiar scenes, familiar battles, only the people are no longer the same as they were back then.
"Teacher, what Orochimaru said about the missing-nin..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to explain his identity, but was interrupted by Tobirama Senju.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi, this is not the time to talk about these things. The most important thing is to seal away our elder brother!"
