Jiraiya answered without hesitation.
"That's different. Killing enemies on the battlefield is completely different from conducting evil experiments on innocent people like you do!"
Jiraiya started off with a loud voice, but it gradually weakened as he spoke, clearly indicating a lack of confidence.
"Is there such a thing as justice and evil in murder? Both are taking a life, yet you are justice and I am evil. You've learned quite a bit of Teacher Sarutobi's hypocrisy, haven't you, Jiraiya!"
After mocking Jiraiya, Orochimaru spoke again.
"As for the experiment, I don't believe you don't know what Teacher Sarutobi and Danzo did back then. We were young then, so it's one thing, but why didn't you choose to stop Shimura Danzō afterward, but instead just fled Konoha, and why are you so fixated on me?"
Jiraiya remained silent in the face of Orochimaru's questioning, and Orochimaru, in turn, did not expect Jiraiya to answer.
"That's because you can't defeat them, so you only run away, afraid to face the cruel reality, and pretend to be powerless!"
"And you're so persistent with me because you're convinced you've got me cornered, Jiraiya. Are you really that sure you can defeat me? Where does your confidence come from, with your current imperfect Sage Mode?"
Jiraiya, who had been speechless because of Orochimaru's words, finally found the flaw in Orochimaru's words.
Jiraiya, a typical saintly type, could completely negate Orochimaru's words even if he knew they were absolutely correct, as long as there was even the slightest error.
"No, Orochimaru, my obsession with you isn't because I think I can defeat you!"
It's because you're my friend that I don't want to see you go astray!
Jiraiya silently added to himself, while his previously somewhat subdued fighting spirit instantly soared, and his resolve became unwavering once more.
I will absolutely stop you today and bring you back on the right track, Orochimaru!
Orochimaru sighed inwardly as he watched Jiraiya inexplicably regain his fighting Jiraiya.
Sure enough, stupidity is contagious. Trying to reason with an idiot Jiraiya makes me less smart!
Knowing that it was pointless to reason with someone like Jiraiya, Orochimaru stopped wasting his breath and slammed his hands on the ground, having already completed the hand seals.
Three coffins rose from the ground, then the lids were opened, and three figures emerged.
Arranged in order from tallest to shortest.
Jiraiya's eyes were filled with shock. Orochimaru had actually mastered a technique he had only heard a few words about.
Especially after recognizing the three people, particularly the one in the middle, Jiraiya was unable to remain calm.
With his indifference to the living and his blasphemy against the dead, Orochimaru became even more hopeless in Jiraiya's eyes.
After silently apologizing, Jiraiya chose to take the initiative.
Orochimaru, naturally, wouldn't surrender easily. He also controlled three accounts and launched an attack.
[Sage Art: Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet!]
[Water Release · Water Formation Wall!]×3
Jiraiya's Great Flame Bullet and Great Fireball Technique are not much different, the only difference being the timing. It can be activated almost instantly, and its duration after hitting is much longer than that of the Great Fireball Technique.
An excellent initiating, probing Ninjutsu.
Under normal circumstances, if Jiraiya, after entering Sage Mode, transforms into a turret and continuously attacks with Great Flame Bullet, he would probably overwhelm Orochimaru.
After his full power-up, Jiraiya was able to fire fireballs almost continuously, leaving Orochimaru with no chance to use any of his numerous Ninjutsu and forcing him to constantly dodge.
However, Orochimaru, who possesses a large number of accounts, hardly needs to use his own Ninjutsu at this point; mastering the Summoning Technique is enough.
The instantly released Sage Art: Great Flame Bullet flew rapidly toward Orochimaru, but was blocked by the Water Formation Wall midway.
With the intervention of Natural Energy, sage techniques and normal escape techniques have become qualitatively different. The restraining relationship between Water Release and Fire Style techniques has completely disappeared, and sage techniques have also enhanced these techniques.
With just one contact, the fireball only shrank in size and continued flying backward at the same speed.
However, the next two thicker and larger Water Formation Wall managed to block Jiraiya's attack.
Compared to Jiraiya, Yagura's Water Release was released much faster, and his three Water Formation Wall effortlessly neutralized Jiraiya's attack.
Jiraiya finally understood how troublesome the Impure World Reincarnation was; it could indeed unleash the power of the deceased in their lifetime.
Not only Yagura, but the other two figures also took advantage of the brief moment to approach Jiraiya.
Two fists, one from the left and one from the Jiraiya.
