As soon as Tobirama Senju finished speaking, he rushed towards the Wood Golem.
After a few flashes, it leaped and reached the Wood Dragon's knees.
"Fire Style: Dragon Flame Technique!"
"Water Release: Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's two clones, one on the left and one on the right, used Ninjutsu.
A fire dragon and a water dragon flew directly toward the Wood Dragon, but collided and neutralized each other as they approached the Wood Golem.
It then turned into a vast expanse of white mist.
First, block the view of the two people above the Wood Golem's head.
Hiruzen Sarutobi understood perfectly how to provide cover.
Give the Wood Golem a sauna.
After the moisture dissipated, Tobirama Senju had reached the Wood Golem's shoulder.
After being exposed, Tobirama Senju did not continue forward. He quickly Hand Seals and finally clasped his hands together.
"Water Release: Water Style: Water Severing Wave!"
The high-speed water jet shot out like a cutting machine, heading straight for the top of the Wood Golem's head.
Hashirama, controlled by Orochimaru, Hand Seals the Hashirama seals and directly clasped his hands together. A tree canopy grew from the top of the Wood Golem's head, like newly grown hair.
Tobirama Senju turned his head, trying to continue the pursuit, but he couldn't turn his head as fast as the wood grew.
After using the Water Style: Water Severing Wave technique, it had no effect; it only gave the Wood Golem a haircut.
The Wood Dragon wrapped around the Wood Golem's body was now under control as it attacked Tobirama.
At the same time, the Wood Golem's slightest leg lift caused the ground to shake.
As he raised his leg, the Wood Golem's palm pressed down towards the spot where Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others were standing.
As the giant hand descended, new branches rapidly grew from its wrist.
The Wood Golem figure appears to move slowly, but this is actually due to its enormous size, which creates the illusion of clumsiness.
Only Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other two below him realized just how fast that palm strike was.
With its ever-growing branches, it had already completely sealed off the surrounding area.
In addition to the spot where Itachi was standing, branches kept falling from other places, trying to force Hiruzen Sarutobi and Hidan to move and completely separate the three of them.
It has to be said that Orochimaru's skill level improved significantly after he focused on playing one account.
Hiruzen Sarutobi spun his staff around, leaving afterimages, and placed it above his head, cutting off all the attacking branches. He then rushed towards Itachi's location.
Hidan, while dodging, also swung his scythe in a blur, moving away from Itachi's position as he dodged.
Countless branches hurtled towards Hidan. Due to the vast difference in strength, Hidan's scythe was knocked out of his hand and then pierced through his body by countless wooden branches.
This was just the beginning. The wooden strip that pierced Hidan didn't stay put; it grew back from Hidan's body.
"Wood Release: Wood Release: Cutting Sprigs Jutsu!"
Hidan was no longer recognizable as human; only countless blood-stained wooden planks could be seen blooming in place, with faint human shapes still discernible.
Such a cruel Wood Release something Hashirama Senju would never use. Hashirama Senju, who always relied on brute force to achieve miracles, was best at flattening his enemies with a single palm strike.
Unfortunately, Orochimaru was controlling Hashirama Senju at that time.
Orochimaru always seems to be smiling at everyone. Putting aside whether his smile is creepy or not, at least he seems more approachable than someone with a blank expression.
The real Orochimaru is quite vengeful. Although he didn't say anything about Hidan's Orochimaru, he actually held a grudge.
Once the opportunity presented itself, he took his revenge on the spot.
Hiruzen Sarutobi hid near Itachi not only for his own safety, but also because he didn't want to abandon Itachi.
"Smack!"
A tap on the shoulder sounded.
Tobirama appeared between the two, placing one hand on Hiruzen Sarutobi, while pausing slightly with the other before patting Itachi's shoulder with even greater speed.
The three reappeared, now more than 200 meters directly in front of the Wood Golem.
This distance is easily covered by a single step for the Wood Golem.
"Kill him first!"
After Tobirama Senju finished speaking, he stretched his arms out in front of him, leaving Itachi looking puzzled. Was he estimating the distance?
Then he put his hands together in prayer position.
"Water Release · Water Style: Water Shockwave!"
A colossal wave crashed towards the Wood Golem.
Itachi couldn't help but recall his days in the Joint Pursuit Force, where there was a shark-faced man named Kisame Hoshigaki, whose Water Release, the Water Style: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave, had once amazed Itachi.
Compared to the Water Style: Water Shockwave we see before us, both the speed of release and the scale are somewhat inferior.
Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't idle either; he shouted something.
"Enma!"
Enma, whose mind was connected with Hiruzen Sarutobi, also grew thicker and longer, and then charged towards the Wood Golem while supporting itself on the ground.
Having recovered some Chakra, Itachi, who was about to unleash a powerful Fire Style with six hand seals in one second, silently withdrew his hand Hand Seals as he watched the two's movements.
He watched the two perform with a blank expression, as if his hand had never been extended.
