Chapter 357: The Bond Between Orochimaru and Jiraiya
Allied Shinobi Forces Command Headquarters.
Hinata frowned because she felt that the Juubi’s huge and violent chakra was gradually disappearing, which made Hinata feel a little surprised.
The current Clan Head of the Hyuga clan, Hinata, was stronger than her in the past. Perhaps it was because she had the burden of her clan, so she had been very calm in this war, abiding by her duty.
The veins on both sides of Hinata’s eyes were exposed, and she sensed the situation of Juubi’s resurrection on the other side, “Tsunade-sama, Juubi’s Chakra is gradually fading away… No, no, someone is secretly absorbing the Juubi’s Chakra!”
“It must be that guy Orochimaru…”
Tsunade slowly closed her palm, and bringing up this old friend made her feel a little uncomfortable. She continued to ask in a low voice, “Hinata, where are Uehara and the allied army now? How long before they arrive!”
“There is still some distance…”
Hinata’s face was slightly pale. She continued in a low voice, “Regimental Commander Uehara has just repelled Madara. He is quickly leading the Allied Shinobi Forces to the Juubi resurrection location. But according to this speed…”
He might not be able to catch up.
No, or it must be said that they will not be able to catch up.
Hinata’s expression changed, and she continued to report the situation in front of her in a deep voice, “Fourth Hokage has appeared! Fourth Hokage-sama and Second Hokage-sama are attacking Regimental Commander Uehara, preventing them from going to the Juubi area!”
After Hinata reported Uehara’s situation, her voice became a little more urgent, “And on the other side, the Juubi’s chakra absorption speed suddenly accelerated!”
“I got it.”
After Tsunade nodded, she looked at Ai and Onoki, “Is there still no way to stop Orochimaru? Raikage-dono, Tsuchikage-dono, they have been fighting for a long time. Let’s hurry over. The final battle is about to begin! “
“It looks like we don’t need to go everywhere to support them…”
Onoki nodded slowly and said in a deep voice, “Moreover, that little fellow Uehara helped to seal Impure World Reincarnate’s army and even defeated Madara. The strength in his body should be depleted, right?”
“Hmm…”
Hinata hesitated and nodded, then whispered, “After defeating Madara, Regimental Commander Uehara consumed a lot of energy, and almost instantly weakened;
In the past, he was able to defeat Second and Fourth Hokage-sama easily, but now, under the siege of the two Hokage-sama, he was in a difficult battle…”
“Then let’s go!”
The chakra on Ai suddenly erupted. He smashed the wall with a punch and shouted, “Gather all the strength to defeat Orochimaru!
We can’t entrust all the war to that guy Uehara. If that happens, he will look down on us in the future!”
On the other side.
Uehara indeed looked like he had fallen into a bitter battle.
Tobirama and Minato had been obstructing his advance, buying time for Orochimaru to become the Juubi Jinchuriki.
When Jiraiya led the special battle team to come and help him, Uehara refused their help and even laughed at himself.
“It seems that Orochimaru is very worried that I will stop him!”
Uehara dodged Tobirama’s attack, and just as he was about to punch Tobirama, he could only see Tobirama using the Hiraishin no Jutsu to disappear.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Uehara turned to look at Jiraiya, “Jiraiya-sama, in fact, after sensing the Juubi chakra, I know that this is no longer a battle of strength because I will absolutely not be the Juubi opponent.
But I believe in you, Jiraiya-sama. Jiraiya-sama was once Orochimaru’s teammate and opponent. If there is anyone in this world who can stop Orochimaru, I believe that the person who can do it must be you!”
“…”
Jiraiya was silent.
Uehara was right.
As Orochimaru’s former teammate and best friend,
Wasn’t it what he should do to stop his former friend from making a mistake?
“… I got it.”
Jiraiya nodded gloomily and immediately led his special battle team to the Juubi area.
The Allied Shinobi Forces’ vanguard forces had already surpassed Uehara. Some of them even stopped to help, but they were all chased away by Uehara.
“Hurry up, go stop Orochimaru first!”
Uehara flashed past Minato’s figure and shouted, “We must stop him from becoming the Juubi Jinchuriki!”
“Yes, Regimental Commander!”
The Allied Shinobi Forces passed by Uehara’s position.
After Allied Shinobi Forces left completely, Uehara casually raised his finger and controlled Tobirama Minato to stop.
“It’s almost done…”
Uehara curled the corners of his lips and said with a smile, “Really, Orochimaru-san, you actually still need me, your enemy, to think of a way to buy you time to become Jinchuriki…”
After Uehara finished talking to himself, he turned to look at Second and Fourth Hokage, who was standing beside him, and ordered in a low voice, “Go and undo the seals on those Impure World Reincarnate Ninjas! This war has just begun!”
“…”
Tobirama and Minato wanted to curse again.
This bastard was still thinking of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!
If they could get rid of the control, the two of them really wanted to teach Uehara a lesson!
On the other side of the battlefield.
Orochimaru completely absorbed all the Juubi chakra, turning into a white round ball that floated above the battlefield. It makes people somewhat unable to understand the situation.
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and looked at that white ball. He then said in a low voice, “Finally succeeded?”
“No, not necessarily.”
Obito’s figure landed beside him from the space-time vortex. He explained in a low voice, “It is not that simple to resist the Juubi’s will… It is only the first step!”
Perhaps it would not be too difficult.
For Orochimaru, as long as his will was firm enough, he could resist the Juubi corrosion. Generally, people who dare to be behind-the-scenes BOSS have a strong will, such as Madara, who almost suppressed the Juubi without any hindrance…
He wonders if Orochimaru, this guy…
Was there enough strong will to resist the Juubi!
“So it’s like this…”
Kabuto frowned and asked softly, “If the Juubi go out of control… wouldn’t we be wasting our time for nothing?”
“We won’t waste it.”
Uehara’s voice came from Obito’s mouth, “Then immediately pull out the Juubi from his body. This way, he can survive for a short period of time and then find a way to let Black Zetsu possess Orochimaru to resurrect Madara…”
The person who was manipulating Orochimaru behind the scenes was a little vile. He continued, “If Orochimaru can survive, everything is fine. If he can’t, then he can only be a pure tool man…”
“…”
Kabuto helplessly smiled bitterly.
This was really going to trick Orochimaru to death!
After a while, Kabuto suddenly asked, “Then, when will Naraku-sama arrive?”
“When the time is right!”
From Obito’s mouth, Uehara’s voice sounded a little frivolous, “If Orochimaru fails, then I can only hurry over to collect his corpse. If Orochimaru succeeds…”
A gentle smile gradually appeared in Uehara’s voice, “Then let Orochimaru be happy for a while! After all, I have always let him down! When Orochimaru is in his most proud state, I will let him see true despair!”
“…”
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and sighed faintly, “Sure enough, Naraku-sama is always so wicked!”
To be honest, it would be better to kill Orochimaru directly after using him!
Kabuto inexplicably felt that if things really developed like what Uehara controlled, there would be no way to reconcile the relationship between Uehara and Orochimaru, right?
Even though they were already dying…
“But…”
Kabuto’s gaze shifted slightly as he stared at the white ball in the sky. He then lowered his voice, “Even if Orochimaru-sama became the terrifying Juubi Jinchuriki, does Naraku-sama still have absolute confidence in dealing with him?”
To be honest.
Even Kabuto was a little afraid.
Because the Juubi Chakra just now was too powerful, even making Kabuto faintly nervous. If Orochimaru really succeeded in becoming the Juubi Jinchuriki, who knew how powerful Orochimaru would be at that time!
Even in this unscientific world, there were some scientific theories. For example, quantity change could also lead to qualitative change, especially the Juubi Chakra itself was a qualitative change after the fusion of nine of Bijuu’s Chakra…
“Hehe…”
There was a hint of mockery in Uehara’s voice as he said, “Even the real Sage of the Six Paths can’t do anything to me, let alone Orochimaru, who has always been under our control…”
Coincidentally, it was at this time.
Madara and Sasuke had already arrived here. They just hid far away from the white ball, and Madara’s expression was a little ugly, “Juubi Jinchuriki… has he succeeded? If that’s the case, it will not be good for me…”
The most troublesome thing was that Madara did not plot against Orochimaru, so he did not leave any tricks on Orochimaru. In this case, Madara had to find a way to deal with Orochimaru with force.
Sasuke grinned and smiled disdainfully, “Madara, you are already dead. Are you still coveting the Juubi’s power?”
“…”
Madara was a little unhappy with Sasuke’s rudeness.
This junior of his clearly had the same face as Izuna, but why was his character so bad?
Forget it.
It was better not to argue with him.
Madara shook his head and continued to focus his attention on the white ball in the sky, continuing his plan.
The only thing that was beneficial to him was…
Uehara and Black Zetsu had both infiltrated the Allied Shinobi Forces…
He could now use the Allied Shinobi Forces’ power and Uehara to try to weaken Orochimaru. After Orochimaru was weakened, he must be revived as soon as possible. Only after he completely resurrected and gained life would he have the qualifications to snatch the qualification to become the Juubi Jinchuriki!
Just as Madara was making a sinister plan, the Allied Shinobi Forces’ vanguard forces also arrived at the scene. The leader, Jiraiya, looked around, and his gaze slowly fell on the white ball.
Jiraiya tilted his head and asked, “According to the news from Intelligence and Sensor Division, the Juubi’s chakra has been absorbed into that white ball?”
“That’s right…”
“Orochimaru is also inside?”
“It should be like this…”
“Then seal that white ball first…”
Crack…
Crack crack crack…
Before Jiraiya could finish his order, the surface of the white ball in the sky suddenly cracked. The next moment, the whole white ball instantly fell apart!
Countless white crystal fragments floated away!
The sound of the white crystal shattering was as clear as day, and the crystal fragments floated and fell slowly like feathers.
Everyone couldn’t help but stare there!
A slender figure broke out of the broken white ball in their line of sight, his body slowly floating in the air.
The entire scene was silent.
Everyone could not help but hold their breath.
“Jiraiya… I didn’t expect you to be the first one to come.”
In this silence, a slightly hoarse voice entered everyone’s ears. The voice source was the person who had broken out of the shell.
The person slowly turned around and looked in the direction the Allied Shinobi Forces had come from. He took off the crystal fragment that had yet to be removed from his head and said, “No, that’s right. The first person to come is you, which makes my evolution more meaningful.”
