" Xiao Mengmeng, what's going on?"
Having been reborn, Wang Hao stared blankly at the long sword piercing his heart, having pierced through his entire chest. He had never expected that his first sight after transmigrating would be such a scene.
"Uncle, you know our current situation is dire, so we can only continue this practice of possessing and resurrecting dying beings. Please forgive us, Uncle!"
The Xiao Mengmeng cutie in the System Space mischievously stuck out her tongue. She felt quite embarrassed about the situation, but she could only let Wang Hao figure out how to get through it on his own.
" Uncle Snake!"
Just as Wang Hao was about to say something, his pupils suddenly contracted, because a figure slowly emerged from the ground in front of him—a figure that left a deep impression on him.
Those snake-shaped earrings, purple eyeshadow, long, straight, flowing black hair, snake-like pupils, and that green vest—this is clearly Orochimaru, the early-stage boss in Hokage, known as Uncle Snake Orochimaru mastered core technology.
Clearly, he had transmigrated into the Naruto World, but he hadn't expected to run into Orochimaru right from the start.
The long sword stuck in his chest was clearly Uncle Snake's sword— the Kusanagi Sword!
This is a rare and powerful weapon, and it is the only sword in Hokage to take the form of a sword.
" Uncle Snake? Dan-kun is really joking!"
Wang Hao's address of "Uncle Snake" startled Orochimaru, who genuinely hadn't expected such a title.
"Ahem... Brother Snake, we're all on the same side, there's no need for this!"
After clearing his throat, Wang Hao realized that Orochimaru was still quite young, only in his early twenties. He couldn't really be called "Uncle Snake"; "Brother Snake" would be more appropriate. At the same time, he had a big question.
" Xiao Mengmeng, isn't Hokage a Japanese culture? How come Uncle Snake in front of me... Brother Snake speaks Chinese, and so fluently at that!"
Wang Hao was even more dumbfounded, because Orochimaru was speaking Chinese, and in standard Mandarin at that, which was quite shocking.
"Uncle, I've told you before, it's the trajectory of fate from all the heavens and myriad worlds that Projection into the minds of some people on Earth, and that's how the corresponding literary and film works came to be. It's not that the world was born because of these works. Don't turn the Cause and Effect and effect upside down!"
As for the question about the Chinese language, don't ask. They don't know either. Just think of it as part of a Hokage Dōjin.
Xiao Mengmeng gave a speechless explanation, but she didn't know the answer to this question about Chinese either.
After all, she could only activate the system's Transmigration Function; which world she would travel to was beyond her control.
The system's function can be divided into two main parts: first, time travel, which only requires time-space energy; and second, the selection of the world to travel to.
This requires relying on the power of devouring the origin of Heavenly Mandate to search through the myriad worlds, which involves inexplicable existences such as Cause and Effect and Fortune. Therefore, it is really hard to predict what kind of world one will travel to and what the other world is like.
"You just talked about Cause and Effect and effect, and now you want me to treat this world as a Dōjin fiction."
After muttering a comment about Xiao Mengmeng's contradictory words, Wang Hao stopped paying attention to that matter. The most important thing now was to escape from Orochimaru.
After all, it seems like Uncle Snake is here to kill him.
"Does Dan-kun really think he's disguised himself perfectly?"
Orochimaru stared coldly at Wang Hao with his snake-like eyes and said in a cold voice, "Speaking of which, Orochimaru- Dan-kun is really ruthless! He even managed to scheme and kill Tsunade's Tsunade brother and remove Nawaki's internal organs. But your actions put me, Nawaki's teacher, in a very difficult position!"
As he finished speaking, Orochimaru's voice grew even colder and more sinister. He then crouched down and took a sealing scroll from Wang Hao's ninja tool pouch, opening it to reveal a heart sealed inside a glass jar.
Judging from the size of that heart, it shouldn't belong to an adult.
Upon seeing the hearts sealed in the jars, Wang Hao's pupils suddenly contracted. Combined with Orochimaru's earlier words, he gained some understanding of his current predicament.
Judging from his words, these internal organs were probably taken from Nawaki by the previous body he possessed. In Hokage, the only person named Nawaki who is also Tsunade is Tsunade's younger brother, Senju Nawaki.
Moreover, it seems that Orochimaru was Senju Nawaki's teacher, and now that his teacher has come knocking on his door, he's in big trouble.
"For Tsunade's sake, Dan-kun should die!"
After confirming that it was indeed the heart of the Nawaki, Orochimaru resealed the jar into the storage scroll, then stared coldly at Wang Hao, reaching for the hilt of the Kusanagi Sword, intending to finish Wang Hao off completely.
" Orochimaru, you made a mistake today. You shouldn't have tried to kill me with your sword!"
With his eyes lowered, Wang Hao's lips curled into a mysterious smile.
Besides gathering information, the most important reason I talked to Orochimaru about all that was to refine the Kusanagi Sword that was stuck in my chest.
As a perk of his rebirth, he has one chance for systematic treatment; as long as he isn't completely shattered, he can recover.
Therefore, as long as the Kusanagi Sword is pulled out, the wound on his heart will heal immediately.
However, he took a liking to the Kusanagi Sword Kusanagi Sword, which itself possessed a spirit and seemed to have signed a contract with Orochimaru. To use it freely, he had to refine it.
He had just secretly used his own True Spirit Sword Intent to refine the Kusanagi Sword, which was the only power he could use at the moment.
Orochimaru instinctively sensed something was wrong and quickened his pace to grab the hilt of the Kusanagi Sword, but he was still a step too late.
With a flash, Wang Hao stood up, and the Kusanagi Sword that had been stuck in his chest was now in his hand.
Without the slightest hesitation, the Kusanagi Sword thrust straight at Orochimaru, unleashing the True Spirit Sword Intent to Sword Force on Orochimaru and prevent him from countering.
The power of the Sword Force is unimaginable to ordinary people, let alone how to deal with it. Even someone as strong as Orochimaru was caught off guard and fell victim to it.
His body stiffened, and then the Kusanagi Sword that Wang Hao thrust at him pierced through his brain.
That wasn't all. Wang Hao's wrist trembled incessantly, Kusanagi Sword flashed with countless sword lights. The next moment, Orochimaru's entire body turned into a pile of fragments.
As a Hokage, he naturally knew how troublesome Orochimaru's survival skills were, and that Ninjutsu was known for its unpredictability.
Even with his Peak Sixth Tier True Spirit Sword Intent, he could still slip up unexpectedly, so it's best to be cautious.
If he hadn't yet found a suitable opportunity to receive the memories of this predecessor, he would have used a Fire Release to burn this pile of ashes.
"Bang!"
A cloud of smoke spread out, followed by a broken glass jar falling to the ground, revealing the heart sealed inside.
It was the sealing scroll containing the heart of the Nawaki that Orochimaru had previously hidden away, which was shattered during the recent meticulous attack and thus fell out.
"Break!"
Just as Wang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, a cry of surprise rang out from behind him. Turning around, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman with long blonde hair tied in a ponytail standing there, looking completely incredulous.
This was Tsunade, who had come to provide support, but she hadn't expected to see such a scene upon arrival.
" The Chakra of the Nawaki, is that the heart of the Nawaki?"
Tsunade stared intently at the heart beside Orochimaru's pile of shattered remains, sensing the incredibly familiar Chakra aura lingering within. She was on the verge of a breakdown.
"I never imagined that Dan-kun possessed such powerful illusion techniques!"
Orochimaru appeared beside Tsunade at some point, his aura extremely weak, his body soaking wet, and a layer of snakeskin at his feet. Clearly, he had used some kind of Ninjutsu to dodge Wang Hao's previous attack, or rather, he had recovered.
After glancing at Orochimaru and Tsunade, Wang Hao didn't dare to delay and quickly slipped away.
From Orochimaru's words, we can infer that Nawaki was the one who killed the previous incarnation, and even cruelly took his heart. This debt should obviously be attributed to him.
Now that Nawaki's sister Tsunade has arrived, if he stays any longer and waits for Tsunade to react, he'll definitely be dead.
The reason why Orochimaru earlier was mainly because he caught Orochimaru off guard and used the Sword Force attached to the True Spirit Sword Intent to strike successfully.
If it were a serious fight, I would have absolutely no chance of defeating Orochimaru in my current state, even if Brother Snake hadn't yet evolved into Uncle Snake ultimate form.
After all, the strongest aspect of True Spirit Sword Intent is its support function, and it is far inferior to the cultivation of the other five basic attributes in direct combat, not to mention that he has not yet had time to receive the memories and strength of his predecessor.
He didn't think he was in a position to deal with Tsunade, let alone with Orochimaru strength was unknown, standing nearby.
Furthermore, this is the Naruto World, known for its eerie and unpredictable nature, where bizarre and unpredictable Ninjutsu abound. Who knows what Ninjutsu Tsunade and Orochimaru possess?
Continuing to fight in this situation is not a good choice, so leaving is the wisest option.
Furthermore, he also needs to find an opportunity to receive the memories of this predecessor from Xiao Mengmeng, and most importantly, figure out the identity of this predecessor before starting the system mission.
"Although I don't want to speak ill of Dan-kun, Dan-kun is indeed very extraordinary and not at all what he has always appeared to be."
Orochimaru took a deep look in the direction Wang Hao had left, gently patted Tsunade's trembling shoulder, and said with reluctance.
"Is Dan also coveting Nawaki's Wood Release?"
After a long while, Tsunade. The anger and killing intent in her heart were almost tangible.
As an elite ninja, she naturally possessed exceptional analytical skills. From the situation just now and some previous clues, she naturally deduced some things and could roughly guess the other party's purpose.
After all, the only valuable thing about Nawaki is its Awakening Wood Release.
She never expected that the one who couldn't resist his greed and took action would be Dan Kato, her boyfriend!
" Wood Release does indeed easily attract greedy power!"
After a moment of silence, Orochimaru nodded, but his vertical pupils gleamed faintly.
According to his secret investigation, Dan Kato did indeed covet the powerful Wood Release, after all, it was the supreme power used by the First Hokage to quell the chaos of the world, and even he coveted it.
However, as far as he knew, it wasn't just Dan Kato who was coveting Nawaki's Wood Release; there was a sinister old man assisting him behind the scenes, and even their teacher, the Third Hokage, seemed to tacitly approve of it.
After all, the Senju Clan left too deep a mark on Hidden Leaf Village. If another God of Shinobi were to emerge from the Senju Lineage, it would not be a good thing for the current rulers.
Orochimaru felt a deep disgust for these dirty power struggles, but after glancing at the grieving Tsunade, he didn't reveal the truth. Otherwise, those old guys would never have let Tsunade live.
This is a form of protection for Tsunade!
"But Dan-kun is truly unexpected!"
Orochimaru looked again in the direction Wang Hao had left, and his interest was piqued.
He thought he knew Dan Kato very well, but he never expected to end up like this. The swordsmanship that the other party possessed was no less than that of White Fang- senpai.
I almost died just now!
