Chapter 80 [Orochimaru]
The Death Forest made a loud rumbling noise.
"What a big noise." Orochimaru licked his lips with a smile.
As the former creator of Yamato and a person who aspires to learn all the ninjutsu in the world, he naturally knew what ninjutsu this was.
The legendary Wood Release.
Or a natural Wood Release ninja, completely different from the Yamato he created.
Orochimaru smiled. If he sent Sarutobi Laoden on his way before, it could be said that it was to keep the glory of the Ninjutsu Doctor in the final battle.
Now he is more or less impatient.
Kill Sarutobi Laoden quickly and expose all the Sharingan and Wood Release!
"Lord Orochimaru." Yakushi Kabuto stood behind him respectfully.
"The previous guess about Rock may not be accurate. It seems that there is no gag order in the village..."
Orochimaru's wanton smile gradually cooled down. He knew what it meant.
Is it another popular Minato Namikaze?
In the competition for the fourth generation Hokage, Orochimaru was abandoned by his teacher. Although Orochimaru himself did not particularly want to be Hokage, but... not wanting to be Hokage is one thing, being abandoned by the teacher is another.
Orochimaru does not care about many things in his life, but he remembers a few failures in his heart.
One failure made him the title of Sannin, one failure made him lose the position of Hokage, and another failure made him obsessed with Sharingan.
Especially the latter two times, losing to the two juniors Minato and Uchiha Itachi made Orochimaru somewhat unacceptable.
Minato, the fourth generation Hokage, was fine. Orochimaru could not say anything because his personality charm was not as good as the other party. The only thing he cared about was that the other party was Jiraiya's disciple...
But Uchiha Itachi, who he almost watched grow up, actually lost to the other party...
From then on, Orochimaru saw through the most fundamental law of strength improvement in the ninja world.
It is not possible without bloodline cheating.
And now, Sharingan and Wood Release gathered in Konoha, which is simply a godsend opportunity. Regardless of whether Rock is the successor that Sarutobi prepared for the Hokage, Orochimaru will not let go easily!
…
The vines beside the tree roots rolled up, and several scrolls on the ground were brought to Rock by the vines.
There were quite a few Genin teams that were eyeing him, but they were basically scared away by his Wood Release just now. Some smart ones knew to throw the scrolls as bait and then run away.
However, Rock, who had collected all the scrolls, was not in a hurry to leave here, but sat on the tree trunk to sense the surrounding environment.
After a while.
A grass ninja wearing a bamboo hat walked out from behind the tree.
Orochimaru was a little surprised and doubtful. He didn't expect Rock to stay there.
Did he think that no one would dare to come and check?
And the moment Orochimaru appeared, Rock also opened his eyes.
Is it just a clone?
Rock looked at Orochimaru calmly.
Is the real body still pretending to be the Wind Shadow?
But since it is a clone, there is no need to waste time with the other party.
Rock put his hands together and slowly formed the seal of Si.
Oh?
Orochimaru became interested, and he also wanted to see Rock's ability.
He looked around, and there were traces of the Sea of Trees everywhere. He had come into contact with Hashirama's cells many times, and he had also read the scrolls of the first generation, so he could still judge this kind of ninjutsu by its range and power.
But... this level of ninjutsu alone can't defeat me.
Orochimaru decided to play the pig and eat the tiger to teach Rock a good lesson, let him know that there are people beyond people, and there are heavens beyond heavens, and leave his own curse mark on Rock.
He stuck out his tongue, licked the corner of his mouth, and looked at Rock with interest: "Little devil--"
"Wood Release: Tree World Birth!"
Orochimaru's pupils suddenly shrank.
A huge number of trees crawled out from deep underground, which was completely different from the Wood Release just now! Countless thick vines and tree roots extended from the tree species to Orochimaru, and the death forest in this area seemed to have instantly turned into a real forbidden place.
Isn't it the birth of the sea of trees, but the birth of the tree world?
Countless vines quickly climbed up and wrapped around Orochimaru's body. He wanted to break free but found that his body was difficult to move.
Can't use any strength?
Orochimaru was a little shocked. Wood escape can really combine the power of sealing techniques as the scroll said!
As a representative of the survival flow, Orochimaru did not dare to be careless when facing the sealing technique. He immediately performed the snake-style substitution technique and got out of his mouth to get rid of the wood escape.
Chakra disappeared so quickly!
Orochimaru's eyebrows jumped. Rock's wood escape was stronger than he thought. It seemed that it was a wrong judgment to use Yamato as a comparison before.
"Summoning Technique: Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!"
Countless giant snakes emerged, each of them was of an exaggerated size. These huge pythons rushed forward, as if to compete with the sea of trees in front of them.
It would be troublesome for an ordinary jonin to deal with just one of the giant snakes.
It should be able to delay for a while...
Orochimaru jumped back quickly. He planned to retreat temporarily. Before he could plant the curse seal on Sasuke, this body must not fall here.
But as soon as he moved, he found a ray of light in Rock's palm.
"What is that?"
Dust Release? Or Storm Release?
Orochimaru found that there was a technique he couldn't recognize.
"Wood Release! Sunlight Flame!"
The third nature change developed by Rock in combination with the ability of Venusaur!
Using the power of trees to absorb sunlight, an energy beam based on natural energy is cast!
The huge white beam was so fast that it was difficult to dodge. It swallowed up all the giant snakes in front of it in a flash, including Orochimaru's body, and destroyed all the trees along the way in a straight line, leaving a bare land!
It stretched all the way to the distance.
The density of the forest was suddenly reduced by the light. Many Genin who were attracted by the movement caused by the previous Wood Release showed their heads from the forest on the side, and were particularly conspicuous on this bare ground.
Several Genin looked at each other, stared at Rock at the end, and then turned around immediately!
In just a blink of an eye, they began to run away in panic.
…
Hokage Building.
The screen was showing the performance of some candidates in the Death Forest.
Suddenly, a large area of the surveillance screen suddenly became blurred!
The Third Hokage frowned suddenly, and then immediately smiled awkwardly to the Wind Shadow beside him: "Sorry, there may be some accidents, which made you laugh."
"Nothing." The Wind Shadow smiled slightly, indicating that he didn't care at all.
The Third Hokage nodded, and then he immediately instructed the Anbu to investigate what happened in the Death Forest.
Seeing that his teacher did not suspect anything, Orochimaru also breathed a sigh of relief.
When the screen became blurred just now, his body also trembled for a moment, but fortunately everyone's attention was attracted by the screen in front of them.
'What kind of power is that? '
He lost to his junior again!
Even until now, Orochimaru still felt the burning sensation from his clone.
Too strong, this pure escape technique power!
Rock can actually develop this ability!
Sitting next to Sarutobi Hiruzen, Orochimaru tried to suppress his emotions.
When I was typing at work during the day, I was discovered by my boss, so I was late today, painful.
