Konoha: The road to the gods starting from Kannabi Bridge

Chapter 94 Orochimaru

"The south... really don't need to go?"

"What to do?"

"What to do? Of course, to hunt down those miscellaneous mist ninjas! I guess there are still 70, NO. [-] people in there! Just leave them alone?"

The speaker was a Konoha ninja.

The location is a battlefield.

A small-scale war has just ended here. A fleeing force of Mist ninjas has been wiped out. The ninjas of Konoha are cleaning the battlefield and treating the wounded. However, the leading Konoha jonins do not have to do those chores. It is to gather together to discuss the next action.

"Who said we should just leave it alone?"

I heard my companion's question.

The other Konoha ninja was still taking his time.

"Huh? You mean there are already other teams... That's not right! We have just contacted the other three teams, and they are all busy chasing down other fog ninjas, and there is no spare manpower to go south. , Besides, those guys are our prey to begin with, what’s the point of handing them over to other teams?”

Although the Mist Ninja was completely defeated in this battle,
But the war did not end completely.

The Konoha ninjas have been busy chasing down the fleeing Mist ninjas these past few days. In order to ensure that there is no chance of being counter-killed during the pursuit, they often hunt down ten Mist ninjas, so Konoha will at least send out Fifteen to 20 people, while keeping as many mist ninjas as possible, also try to ensure that their own losses will not be too great.

after all,

Even though Konoha talks about a great family and a great cause,
However, fighting against the Sand Ninja, Kumo Ninja, and Iwa Ninja successively was also very costly. To be precise, their investment of troops on the eastern battlefield was not as good as the Mist Ninja. They relied entirely on their superior high-end combat power to forcefully penetrate and defeat the Mist Ninja. The frontline base camp made the Mist Ninja army fall into a leaderless state, thus winning this battle.

otherwise,
He wouldn't let all the mist ninjas escape.

It was because he couldn't eat all the Mist Ninja army in one go that he chose the beheading plan.

then,

Without the command of their brains, the Mist ninjas were just pieces of fish meat, allowing the Konoha ninjas to eat them one by one.

And the group of mist ninjas who fled to the south,
It was originally the meal for this Konoha ninja. They had already eaten the 'broken tails' thrown by the group of Mist ninjas before.

"It's Lord Orochimaru!"

replied another.

"Master Orochimaru?"

"That's right, Orochimaru-sama has personally gone after the group of fog ninjas heading south." The Konoha ninja looked at his fellow Jonin around him and said in a deep voice, "Don't ask me why Orochimaru-sama He will take action, anyway, Orochimaru-sama has contacted me before, saying that he can handle the southern Mist ninja alone, and asked us to hunt down the other Mist ninjas."

"...If it's Lord Orochimaru, then I have no objection."

The jounin who raised the question mumbled and made no further objections.

this topic,

It ended abruptly.

No one asked why Orochimaru was suddenly interested in the group of mist ninjas who were fleeing in panic, and no one was worried about whether Orochimaru could kill more than 100 mist ninjas by himself, because... that But Lord Orochimaru!

Just over 100 fog ninjas.

There are only one kid from the Oniden clan and one from the Sakumo clan, which is more troublesome, but this difficulty is only relative to jounin like them. For Orochimaru-sama...the two mist ninjas. The genius kid is just a little trouble.

Therefore,
There is nothing to worry about at all.From the moment Orochimaru set his sights on those fog ninjas, their doom was already doomed.

----

The big gray-brown snake snaked forward in the forest at an extremely fast speed. The vegetation along the way was crushed to the ground, leaving a deep mark wherever it passed. On top of the big snake's head, stood a man full of people. An evil middle-aged man.

The strong wind whistling past his ears lifted his black hair,
You can see his eyes that are as bright as gold. The purple eye shadow extends to the position of his nose. There are magatama-shaped blue earrings hanging on his ears. He is wearing the dark green vest of Konoha Jounin, but the reason why he uses 'Evil' is how to describe him.

It's because his skin is as pale as a prisoner who has not seen the sun for more than ten years, and like a corpse that has lost its temperature, with no trace of blood at all.
He is Orochimaru.

One of Konoha's famous Sannin is a disciple of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen. Recently, there are calls for support for him to become the Fourth Hokage!
It can be said,
He is a big shot who truly stands at the top of Konoha's power.

And now,
This big shot was the defeated general who was chasing down a group of mist ninjas alone.

"The Boiling Escape Blood Technique of the Yaoyun Clan and the Hydration Technique of the Ghost Lantern Clan... are both excellent research materials. In the past, if you wanted to get such precious materials, you had to travel thousands of miles to water. It's a place like China, but during this kind of war... it was delivered directly to my door, which saved me a lot of time!"

The big gray-brown snake slowed down,

Orochimaru, who was talking to himself, suddenly lowered his head and looked at a small puddle in the grass below, with a chilling smile on his face.

At this moment,

A figure emerged from the puddle.

"Water Escape·Water and Iron Cannon Art!"

It was Ghost Lantern Full Moon who jumped out of the puddle. This genius boy of the Ghost Lantern clan jumped up high. He did not look at the big snake with its bloody mouth ready to bite people. Instead, he raised his hand and aimed at the big snake standing on its head. Orochimaru shot out a liquid as powerful as a bullet from his fingers.

This can easily penetrate trees, and the water droplets from cracked rocks penetrate Orochimaru's body as expected.

just,

next second,

Orochimaru's body turned into mud and slid down.

"Earth substitute?"

Gui Deng Man Yue frowned slightly.

It is natural that he failed to kill Orochimaru with one blow. There is nothing surprising about this. The only problem is that the opponent's Earth Release Technique is really extremely brilliant. He has no clues about Orochimaru's technique and does not have many clues. Time to let his thoughts wander.

The big snake had already opened its mouth and pounced over,
Swallow the ghost lamp full moon whole.

but--

"boom!!"

The big snake's neck suddenly exploded.

Blood spurted out from the wound like a fountain, mixed with pieces of minced meat, and splashed around like raindrops. Immediately, the unharmed Ghost Lantern Man Yue sprang out from the exploded wound, holding a hand in his hand. He was holding a strange-looking broadsword with countless detonating talismans wrapped around it.

"Is this Explosive Blade · Fei Mo?"

Orochimaru reappeared above the head of the snake, standing next to the mass of mud, looking curiously at the sword in Ghost Mangetsu's hand.
