Chapter 572 The Stubborn Old Man

Who is the man in front of me if he's not Orochimaru?

However, no matter what, Sarutobi Hiruzen never expected that the person appearing in front of him would be his former disciple.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and soon returned to normal, becoming a little more serious.

"What exactly do you want to do? Orochimaru!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced outside the Four Purple Flame Formation, and there were people fighting everywhere.

"If you start such a dispute, do you know what the consequences will be?"

Orochimaru smiled faintly, looked across at the old man who was already showing his age, and spoke softly with emotion.

"Just to send away the person I once admired in my heart."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned when he heard this, and then fell silent.

He understood the meaning of what the other party said, and his eyes became serious.

"It's not the student's turn to decide the future of a teacher, Orochimaru."

Orochimaru heard this, but just chuckled.

The two stopped talking, obviously not knowing what to say.

The duel between master and apprentice is an extremely embarrassing thing, let alone this situation.

"No matter what, I will never allow you to disrupt the entire Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted in a deep voice.

His hands suddenly moved and he quickly took the lead.

"Earth Escape·Earth Escape River!"

With a loud shout, the ground in front of him changed rapidly, and the torrent of mud rumbled towards Orochimaru.

Facing the suddenly changing terrain, the latter easily dodged it with a slight jump.

Then he formed a seal with his hands.

"Ninja Technique, Formation of Ten Thousand Snakes!"

He suddenly bent down and saw thick snakes being spit out from his mouth. They were densely packed and made a sharp hissing sound, spreading rapidly towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.

When the latter saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

In fact, the Formation of Ten Thousand Snakes is an extremely shocking ninjutsu. A large number of venomous snakes were spit out from its mouth, covering everything visible to the naked eye, making people's scalp numb when they saw it.

Hiruzen Sarutobi formed a seal with his hands, inhaled sharply, and then exhaled: "Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

In an instant, a huge fire dragon erupted from its mouth, roaring and charging towards the large influx of snakes.

"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"

Orochimaru formed the seal again.

"Earth Escape·Earth Formation Wall!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen also used ninjutsu again.

The duel between the two was very exciting, it could be called a battle between ninjutsu, both mastering many ninjutsu.

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet!"

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

After a wave of Ninjutsu exchanges, the two moved quickly and released Ninjutsu again.

Within the Four Purple Flame Formation, ninjutsu collided violently, causing ripples to erupt. Even the formation walls of the barrier are covered with circles of lines.

"Orochimaru, this is really beyond my imagination!"

"Perhaps the last enemy in this life will be the monster I taught myself."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked solemn.

A simple competition and competition made him realize that this disciple's strength was no longer the same as before.

The aura on his body actually had an unfathomable feeling like Xia Le.

"Master leads me in. Cultivation depends on the individual."

"I have already surpassed you, teacher!"

Orochimaru smiled lightly.

Then, his body shook, a circle of air radiated out, and his aura suddenly became different.

"Let me use the highest achievement in my life to send you off!"

"It is better to die in battle than to die of old age in obscurity."

"This is also the highest respect that I, as a disciple, can give to my teacher!"

The suddenly rising voice shocked Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart, and he quickly retreated.

Just as he left, a huge snake's mouth rushed out from the ground and bit violently. It is conceivable that as long as he slows down a little, he will be swallowed into the belly of the snake.

"I'm afraid no teacher would be willing to accept your kind of respect."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

His eyes were fixed on Orochimaru at this moment.

It can be clearly seen that mysterious lines appear on the other party's cheeks, and there is a slight fairy-like aura in the swaying clothes.

"Sage mode?"

"When did such power become so easy to master?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured.

At this time, Orochimaru formed seals again. The seals were simple, no more than three, but the power they unleashed was frightening.

"Immortal Technique: Snake Grass Swallows Cobalt!"

As a cold sound came out, the ground quickly cracked, and sharp sword blades emerged from the heads. A two-meter-long snake body quickly rushed out, opened its mouth, and rushed towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.

This scene is shocking and makes people’s hair stand on end.

"call!"

Taking a deep breath, Sarutobi Hiruzen slammed his right hand on the ground.

"Psychic art!"

"Ape Demon!"

The ape demon appeared quickly. When he saw the scene in front of him, his pupils suddenly shrank and his heart was horrified.

Because what you see is everywhere you look, there are snake bodies with sword blades surging towards here. Just one look at them makes your scalp numb and your hair standing on end.

"This time, is our enemy your apprentice? Hiruzen!"

When he saw the overwhelming snake body, the figure standing at the highest point, the ape demon said solemnly.

"I made you laugh!"

"I never thought that one day I would encounter such a situation."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"He seems to have already betrayed Konoha and joined the Rain Hidden Village."

The ape demon said hesitantly.

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked around at the Sunagakure fighting with Konoha and the Amegakure ninjas who were quickly evacuating, and replied after a slight pause.

"This time, it seems to be the result of him being good at making claims."

"Assassinate Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, and guide Sunagakure to start this war."

"I have no doubt that his purpose is exactly the same!"

When the ape demon heard this, he immediately became furious and said, "You are really a treasonous and unethical boy who deceived your master and destroyed your ancestors."

"But we cannot ignore his current power."

"Orochimaru is no longer the same as before!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said as he stretched out his right hand suddenly.

The ape demon immediately transformed into a Vajra Ruyi Stick, and at the same time shouted: "I will do my best to help eliminate the traitors, Hiruzen!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Okay, let you and I join forces again for the final battle!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed.

He held the Vajra Ruyi Rod with both hands and swept it out violently.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the snake bodies were crushed into pieces, and the torrent in front of them was cut in half.

Sarutobi Hiruzen swept left and right, really opening a passage and breaking the dangerous situation with this move.

But just when he was relieved, a figure fell from the sky.

As soon as it landed in front of him, his mouth opened.

"call out!"

As the bright light flashed, silver sword light flew towards him.

"Grass Pheasant Sword!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils contracted, and due to conditioned reflex, he could only block the monkey demon in front of him.

"when!"

The roar of gold and iron came out, and the huge force knocked him away instantly, and then quickly extended and stretched, and finally hit the boundary of the Four Purple Flame Formation heavily.

But until this moment, Orochimaru's attack was not over yet.

With a twist of his head, the Kusanagi sword in his mouth faced Sarutobi Hiruzen and flew out again.

"boom!"

After another loud noise, dust rose from the ground, and Sarutobi Hiruzen landed heavily, creating a large crater in the ground.

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been severely injured.

He stood up unsteadily and looked at Orochimaru again.

The latter's attack was ruthless and swift. In just a few ups and downs, he was already in front of him.

Then, he reached out and punched.

Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly resisted.

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

The two of them fought continuously, with their fists, arms, knees, and legs all colliding rapidly, and even rising, landing, and moving on the ground quickly.

When their eyes met, both of them were shocked.

In a daze, they seemed to recall the moments when they had fought against each other when they were young.

"You have really grown up, Orochimaru!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a sigh.

His breathing became violent, and with every collision, he could feel the huge force surging from the other party.

This kind of strength has exceeded the physical fitness of ordinary ninjas, obviously because of the natural energy bonus.

And this means that the great disciple in front of him is extremely familiar with the Immortal Mode, and may even have completely integrated this power into himself.

"I have a lot of new stuff to show you."

Orochimaru said softly.

His face was calm, his breathing was steady, and his condition didn't seem to be affected in any way by this battle.

"Yeah?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were dazed for a moment, then he was kicked out with a bang.

After standing firm, he slowly raised his head.

"Immortal Technique Daluo Sword Formation!"

An indifferent voice came, and Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils suddenly shrank.

As far as the eye can see, behind Orochimaru, the silver sword blades are coiled in a sword formation like the shadow of a snake, and the bright sword tip shines with cold light.

"A snake is a sword, and a sword is a snake."

"This is a new ninjutsu I developed after mastering Senjutsu Chakra."

Orochimaru said softly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen blinked, and sure enough he saw that the sword formation in front of him had turned into a snake formation, and the sword blades had also turned into snakes.

But in the blink of an eye, it returned to the sword again.

"Teacher, please evaluate my move!"

Orochimaru stretched out his hand and pointed his finger forward.

"咻咻咻咻咻~"

In an instant, sword shadows shot out one after another, heading straight towards the Third Hokage.

"call!"

The latter took a deep breath, then bent over suddenly and slapped his palms on the ground.

"Fivefold Rashomon!"

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Five portals appeared in succession, blocking the space between the two people.

A large number of sword shadows also impacted on Rashomon, weakening its power and ultimately unable to break through.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen's breathing became heavier. He was breathing heavily, and his chest was rising and falling violently. It was obvious that he had reached his limit.

"Is this going to end?"

He muttered, his vision becoming blurry.

But just for a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes became firm again.

"No, I can't just fall here!"

——

outside world.

Kakashi appeared in front of the Four Purple Flame Formation, frowning as he looked at the barrier covering a wide area.

"Is Hokage-sama among them?"

he asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, the Fourth Kazekage was also wrapped in it."

The ANBU next to him immediately replied.

"The Fourth Kazekage."

Kakashi muttered.

Because the Four Purple Flame Array's halo was flowing, isolating everything inside and outside, he couldn't see the scene clearly. Of course, the array barrier that appeared in front of him was obviously improved.

He looked up and looked at the shining barrier, frowning.

It seemed that the only way to crack this array was from the inside, which was very different from the Four Purple Flame Array he knew.

At this moment, Kakashi saw two figures from the corner of his eye.

His eyes changed slightly, and his figure immediately flashed again and came in front of the two people.

"Teacher, this matter."

Kakashi asked hesitantly.

"It has nothing to do with the Hidden Rain Village, but it was led by Orochimaru."

Xia Le smiled lightly, without hiding anything.

"Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas?!"

Kakashi was shocked.

"It's him!"

"Now, the Hidden Rain Village is going to withdraw from here, and I have to go too!"

Xia Le stood up and said.

"In other words, the one who is now sealed in the barrier with the Third Hokage is Orochimaru?"

Kakashi's face changed.

"We outsiders can't interfere with the matters between the master and the apprentice."

Xia Le smiled faintly.

Afterwards, he took a step and left in a blink of an eye.

This matter is indeed as he said, it has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't want to get involved.

Purely, there is just a bad taste of wanting to watch the show.

Inside the Four Purple Flame Formation.

"You?!"

Orochimaru looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was holding his arms tightly, and his heart was suddenly startled.

"I still remember that what you like most is to study, learn, and develop various ninjutsu, right?"

"This is the same as mine."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with emotion.

Behind him, a hideous ghost figure emerged, holding a blood-stained short knife in his hand.

"Before leaving, you have to take something with you, don't you?"

"Just treat it as the last moment and do something for Konoha!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes became vague.

In his life, from childhood to adulthood, to middle age, until today, everything is flashing quickly, emerging, turning into phantoms, and flashing by in a hurry.

"It's time!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes suddenly condensed, and he took a deep breath, feeling that he had never been so clear-headed in his life.

"Shiki Fuujin!"

"Just leave with me, Orochimaru!"

The ferocious evil ghost behind him moved, and was about to cut Orochimaru open.

But the latter, at this moment, his body shook, and a gust of wind radiated out.

"Xianfa·God's protection!"

In an instant, the surging energy rushed into the sky, and a majestic, golden body emerged from behind, covering it.

Seeing this golden god, Hiruzen Sarutobi widened his eyes, and the evil ghost holding a short knife showed surprise in his eyes.

Because of the next bird, the golden body suddenly swung his hand.

"Pah~"

The evil ghost's knife-holding hand was opened, and the short knife in his hand almost flew out.

"This?!"

"How is it possible!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured.

The Shikigami Fengjin was actually broken!

This kind of thing is the first time in history.

Orochimaru let out a long breath, his eyes still in shock.

He raised his head again, and when he saw the third generation Hokage who had lost his light in his eyes and fell to the ground, he couldn't help but be startled, and then sighed softly.

"It's a good ending!"

"Stubborn old man!"
