Chapter 145: One Palm Shocks the Sky
Chapter 145: One Palm Shocks the Sky
It is not known whether Orochimaru was letting him win or the strongest Hokage was very powerful, but Sarutobi Hiruzen fought against two masters and one disciple alone. Although he was in danger many times in the process, he was always able to escape danger with the help of his endless combination of ninjutsu.
Even later, the First Hokage Senju gradually used the amazing Wood Release Secret Technique. The Tree World Descent caused trees to grow rapidly on the ground, creating a forest in an instant, and the branches tightly bound Hiruzen's hands and feet so that he could not break free.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also used the "Vajra Rod" transformed from the summoning beast "Monkey King" to cut off the branches that were entangled with him, and once again confronted Orochimaru and the others.
His seemingly extremely powerful posture made the Anbu watching the battle outside feel admiration, and they exclaimed in admiration outside the barrier.
"The Sandaime Hokage is so powerful!"
"At such an old age, he can still fight against three masters alone. He is indeed the strongest Hokage!"
The sounds from inside the barrier could not be transmitted out, but the images from outside could be transmitted in. Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his face burning when he heard the praise from the Anbu. Didn't he know that the Shodaime and Nidaime were only about as strong as they were in their lifetime? It was still a bit embarrassing for him to be called the strongest Hokage in front of his teacher.
"Tsk tsk tsk, where's the strongest Hokage? I wonder how much more energy and chakra you have left, Sarutobi-sensei?"
As if to give Sarutobi Hiruzen a chance to catch his breath, after he broke free from the control of the trees, Orochimaru did not continue to pursue him. Instead, he and the two Impure World Form Hokage separated and surrounded Sarutobi Hiruzen, and then started to talk nonsense.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was stern, his eyes steadfast, "No matter how much chakra I have left, my resolve to protect Konoha remains as unshakable as a mountain!"
As he spoke, he took the opportunity to breathe deeply, hoping to recover a little more strength and delay a little longer.
Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared resolute, but inwardly he was sighing, realizing how old he truly was. Every bit of strength lost in the previous battle made him feel one step closer to death. His thoughts, however, involuntarily drifted towards the Sarutobi clan's territory.
I saw a fire in the tribe's territory earlier. I hope everyone can evacuate safely...
Seeing that Orochimaru had no intention of continuing the attack for the time being, Sarutobi Hiruzen recovered while vigilantly glancing in the direction of the Sarutobi clan with his peripheral vision.
What made him furious was that in the clan territory that he thought had returned to peace, not only was there a raging fire that spread to most of the clan territory, but there was also a terrifying skeleton giant several dozen meters tall in the middle!
Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, the experienced Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately thought of the Uchiha family's Susanoo!
"Orochimaru!"
Upon discovering the raging flames and giants in his clan's territory, Sarutobi Hiruzen could no longer remain calm and spat out the name of his former beloved disciple through gritted teeth.
Although no sound could be heard, his hideous and distorted face and bulging veins made the Anbu ninjas outside the barrier shudder.
"It's a taboo to clone yourself during battle. I think you, Sarutobi-sensei, taught me this."
Orochimaru showed no concern for Sarutobi Hiruzen's anger. Instead, he took advantage of the moment when Hiruzen was distracted and furious to control the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama to rush forward quickly, and formed a pincer attack with his own fast and long neck, giving Sarutobi Hiruzen a heavy blow.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen tried his best to dodge, he could only avoid Orochimaru's intimidating neck and head, and was eventually left with a deep wound on his chest by the second generation.
Sarutobi Hiruzen covered the wound on his chest with his hand, using a crude medical ninjutsu to temporarily stop the bleeding. Anger, confusion, anxiety, despair, and other emotions surged within him, and he was almost unable to hold on.
Even though they were not using their original bodies, the strength displayed by the first and second generation teachers was still terrifyingly strong. Although Orochimaru did not show much strength, the endless snakes and the soft body made it difficult to defend against.
With this aging body, I really can't fight anymore!
The current situation is that Konoha Village has been invaded and there is chaos in the clan territory. It should be the Uchiha clan who comes to take revenge.
Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that the outside world was a bit cold and his body shuddered. The strength of Uchiha Tajima back then was too strong. If it was him who attacked the Sarutobi family today, it would be a real trouble.
Looking at the few stupid ANBU outside who were complaining non-stop, Sarutobi Hiruzen's despair deepened.
I have been trapped in the barrier and no one has come to rescue me. It seems that these people inside Konoha can't be relied upon. I can only hope that Jiraiya can come soon.
In order to delay time and also to vent his anger, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Orochimaru and said, "It was me who drove you out of Konoha back then. If you want to take revenge on me and Konoha, just come after me directly. Why are you hurting the Sarutobi clan?
Also, why did you collude with the Sand Village and the Uchiha clan's rebels? "
At this time, Orochimaru also saw the skeleton giant in the direction of the Sarutobi clan. A hint of doubt and solemnity flashed in his eyes, but it could not be seen on his face at all.
“When hurt happens to someone you care about, the pain is real and deep enough, isn’t it?
Hehehe, as for collusion, that's too harsh, it's just cooperation."
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and laughed strangely. The coldness on his face and the long tongue made him look like an evil monster who was plotting to wreak havoc on the world.
In fact, Orochimaru was also confused in his heart about who was attacking the Sarutobi family. Judging from the reaction of the skeleton giant and Sarutobi teacher, it should be someone from the Uchiha clan.
But Orochimaru knew very well that neither he nor the Sand Shinobi had any contact with the Uchiha clan, so how did they know about his plan to destroy Konoha and how did they grasp the timing so perfectly!
Even when I had arranged people to lurk outside Konoha, they didn't find them. This is so strange.
Even the activation of the One-Tail was very strange. It shouldn't have been unleashed so smoothly in Konoha Village. The current situation was as if someone had added a few extra strokes to their plan!
Although he had many doubts in his mind, in order to see his dear teacher Sarutobi off, Orochimaru suppressed his inner thoughts and launched an attack with all his strength.
I must give my teacher a unique funeral today!
Once Orochimaru and the two Impure World Forms attacked with all their might, Sarutobi Hiruzen would soon be unable to hold on. In the end, at the cost of being injured, he could only grab Orochimaru's arm and was about to perform the forbidden technique of Shiki Fuujin, hoping to die together with them.
At this moment, the sky above the barrier suddenly changed color. White clouds in the sky rolled and gathered, thunder roared, and in an instant condensed into a giant palm of a hundred meters. The sound of thunder exploding continued to come from inside the giant palm.
The next moment, a giant palm descended from the sky with the posture of splitting the chaos. Wherever it passed, the wind stopped, the clouds ceased, and all things disappeared.
The giant palm was powerful enough to destroy mountains and valleys. It hit the barrier, and the originally indestructible barrier shattered in an instant. After the giant palm passed through the barrier, the remaining palm power expanded and spread, and hit Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju again.
Endless vibration ripples immediately began to spread through the two men's bodies, and within a few breaths, their bodies and the kunai they controlled were shattered into pieces.
Impure World Reincarnation, broken!
