Fierce Battle with Orochimaru! / What Kind of Sword Is That?!

Asuramaru's reminder echoed in my mind.

"There are enemies approaching from the right; three of them are coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto immediately realized what he meant.

"Sasuke, Sakura, watch out! An enemy is approaching from your right!"

"Did you sense it in advance?"

Sasuke slightly surprised to hear this, but then he remembered the Land of Waves' previous performance and understood.

Sakura then inquired further.

"What should we do? Should we ambush them?"

"I'll lie in ambush; you can continue as usual!"

With that, Naruto immediately formed hand seals and unleashed Shadow Clone, while his main body leaped up to a nearby tree and hid.

Meanwhile, Sasuke and the other two below were resting in place.

A moment later.

Asuramaru's reminder echoed in her mind again, "There are two on that tree behind you, and one more in the bushes below."

"I see!"

Having pinpointed the opponent's location, Naruto didn't waste any words and immediately swung his Tri-Pronged Kunai behind him.

The two, who had been focused on Sasuke companion below, snapped back to their senses and immediately dodged to the side when they saw the kunai.

The Tri-Pronged Kunai pierced into the tree trunk behind him.

When was it discovered?

"Since they've already been discovered, let's just grab them!" The two were only slightly taken aback before they immediately reached a consensus.

But just as the two were about to make their move...

Naruto had already appeared behind the two of them, and swung his hand sharply towards their necks, instantly knocking them unconscious.

Just as he was about to fall from the tree, Naruto grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, turning his gaze downwards.

Sasuke and his group also subdued the ninja hiding in the bushes.

When Naruto returned with the two unconscious men, after searching them, he finally found the scroll on one of them.

Upon seeing the scroll, Sakura frowned and couldn't help but complain, "It's Heaven Scroll just like ours. Looks like we've wasted our time."

But Naruto retorted.

"To be precise, no. We can find teams in similar situations and make exchanges with them."

Sasuke agreed, then pointed to the three men on the ground and asked, "What about these three?"

"Just leave it in the bushes."

Naruto replied without hesitation.

As for the Asuramaru inside him, it had absolutely no interest in the exams, since Naruto's strength was so great that he could easily dominate the Chunin Exams.

What truly caught Asuramaru's attention was Orochimaru, since he had already noticed him in the crowd earlier.

After all, with that aura standing among the genin, it's hard not to notice the other party.

I just don't know when it will arrive.

But the next moment.

Sensing the approaching presence, Asuramaru immediately sensed it!

"Speak of the devil, and he appears!"

Chapter 251 Fierce Battle with Orochimaru!

He immediately warned, "Naruto, there are enemies approaching directly in front of you, and one of them is very strong for you right now!"

Upon hearing this, Naruto's expression turned serious, and he quickly asked, "Then is there any chance we can win?"

"Absolutely not."

Asuramaru answered with absolute certainty, adding, "It's too late to run now, but if you abandon these two burdens, escaping shouldn't be a problem."

Abandoning his comrades was never on Naruto's mind, and until he could come up with an effective solution, he could only offer this reminder.

"Sasuke, you guys get out of here first. There's a really strong guy approaching right in front of us. Even I wouldn't be a match for him!"

With that, he handed Sasuke a Tri-Pronged Kunai and then said, "Take this kunai and get out of here. I'll hold that guy off!"

"Then be careful!"

Knowing that staying here would only be a hindrance, and feeling powerless, Sasuke gritted his teeth, gripped his Tri-Pronged Kunai, and spoke directly to Sakura.

"There's no time to waste, let's get going! The farther we run, the safer Naruto will be!"

Before leaving, Sakura turned back and said worriedly, "You must come back, Naruto! We're both waiting for you to pass the test together!"

Naruto watched the two figures leave, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around, holding his Trident Kunai and facing forward.

"They've arrived."

As Asuramaru's voice faded.

Three figures wearing bamboo hats suddenly appeared directly in front of them, and the one standing in the first position spoke first.

"You guys go play somewhere else first."

The words were finished.

The two people beside her disappeared immediately, leaving only the leader, who appeared to be a woman. The most striking feature of her attire was the purple rope knot on her back.

He opened his mouth and stuck out his wet, slippery tongue to lick the corner of his lips.

The newcomer was none other than Orochimaru!

Just by simply releasing killing intent, Naruto felt as if he had been pierced by swords and killed, but at this level...

He could still endure it.

This also surprised Orochimaru.

"You actually managed to withstand my killing intent?"

Seeing the other person's surprised expression, Naruto felt a cold sweat pour down his back, but he still resolutely asked the question.

"You're not here to participate in the Chunin Exams, are you? What exactly is your purpose?"

Having been seen through at a glance, Orochimaru was genuinely interested this time. Although his target was Sasuke Uchiha, he had plenty of time at the moment.

Therefore, he didn't rush to make a move. Instead, he wanted to see if Naruto Uzumaki, as the Nine-Tails- Tails Jinchuriki, could bring him any surprises.

"You found out, huh? You're quite an interesting brat. But for now, the only way to avoid trouble is to kill you here."

After hearing these words.

Naruto, wielding Tri-Pronged Kunai, stepped forward and engaged in close combat with the opponent.

After a brief exchange, Orochimaru was increasingly surprised by Naruto's close-combat skills, which were barely at the level of a special Jonin.

Moreover, their physical bodies seem to be even stronger than those of ordinary ninjas!

In the very instant he began to think.

Naruto seized the opportunity and threw his Tri-Pronged Kunai forward.

But Orochimaru dodged the attack by ducking down, and then taunted him, "Trying to ambush me with a kunai? That's a bit too naive..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Orochimaru, who was about to pounce on his opponent, suddenly discovered that Naruto had disappeared.

But by the time they came to their senses...

Naruto had already appeared on the Tri-Pronged Kunai that Naruto had dodged, and while gripping the kunai, his other hand emitted a dazzling light!

"Rasengan!"

In an instant, the Rasengan struck Orochimaru directly from behind, unleashing a massive burst of energy that created a deafening roar, cracking the ground beneath him.

Fortunately, Orochimaru below opened his mouth, and as if shedding his skin, he quickly detached from his original body through his mouth and turned around.

He raised his hands and charged straight at Naruto.

However, Naruto activated the Flying Thunder God again and disappeared from his original spot, arriving directly beside Sasuke and the other two who had already escaped.

When Sasuke saw who it was, a rare, slight smile appeared on his proud and aloof face, but it quickly vanished without a trace.

"Did you fight that guy? How strong was he?"

Naruto, without bothering with any pleasantries, quickly reminded him, "The opponent is very strong, possibly even stronger than Kakashi- sensei!"

Moreover, the other party clearly has ulterior motives, but we are powerless to stop them, so let's escape now!

Upon hearing this, Sasuke and Naruto realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly followed Naruto as they fled the Forest of Death.

Meanwhile, Orochimaru, who was tracking the three from behind, was still in shock. The Flying Thunder God Technique was Minato Namikaze's signature move.

Unexpectedly, this kid has managed to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique; his talent may even have surpassed that of his father, Minato Namikaze!

Given his status as the Nine-Tails- Tails' Jinchūriki, his future achievements are simply limitless!

It could also serve as a container.

But for Orochimaru now, Sasuke Uchiha is not as tempting as he is now, since what he needs is the power of that clan!

This thought came to mind.

He quickened his pace and chased after the group in the direction they had fled.

Not long after.

They had already caught up with the three of them. Seeing this, Naruto could only turn around and remind them, "You guys go first!"

As he spoke, he threw out a Tri-Pronged Kunai.

"The Flying Thunder God consumes a great deal of mental and chakra resources. How long can you sustain it?" Orochimaru stuck out his wet, slippery tongue, as if he had them completely under his control.

And that is indeed the case.

The Nine-Tails can provide chakra, but Naruto in his current state cannot use the Flying Thunder God Technique for long in battle; he will soon collapse from overexertion.

As Orochimaru dodged the Tri-Pronged Kunai Orochimaru, his body became limp and boneless, crawling on the ground like a snake.

It Drifting forward, heading straight for Sasuke.

Seeing this, Naruto could only activate Flying Thunder God again to return to the two in front of him and defend them, wielding Rasengan and swinging it forward.

But this time, Orochimaru's body twisted away from the attack in an extremely strange way, while his wet tongue took the opportunity to wrap around Naruto's body from the side.

He slammed it onto the ground, then tossed it away like trash, and it fell directly to the ground.

He was unable to move an inch for a moment.

Asuramaru could see this but there was nothing he could do, since the prerequisite for using his abilities was that the swordsman's body could withstand it.

Even if he possessed Orochimaru now, it would be impossible for him to kill Orochimaru before Naruto's body collapsed.

Unless he uses a clone to kill Orochimaru himself, but that's unnecessary, considering there's still the Nine-Tails.

Orochimaru didn't pay much attention to Naruto, and instead attacked Sasuke was not far away, even though Orochimaru didn't use his true strength.

But it's not something Sasuke can contend with now. Right now, it's like a cat playing with a mouse, with Sasuke being manipulated at will.

Sakura, meanwhile, was being chased by a 100-meter-long giant snake summoned by Orochimaru.

At the same time.

Naruto had been lying on the ground, finally recovered from his injuries and struggled to his feet, thinking to himself, "Looks like I'll have to borrow your power again, Asuramaru!"

With a thought, the dark Demon Power at his waist condensed into the Ryujin Jakka!

Chapter 252 What kind of knife is that?!
