As an elite team composed entirely of Jonin, Hyugazo and others are very fast and can leave the village in just a few breaths.
However, when they reached the edge of the village, they were still blocked.
call out…
After knocking down the Senbons that were as dense as raindrops, the ANBU team looked at the two people in front, their eyes full of fear.
Because one of them is the rebellious ninja Orochimaru in the village. Orochimaru's name is well-known in Konoha. He is a powerful ninja who can change the situation on the battlefield.
The other person, although he didn't know his strength, was able to appear next to Orochimaru.
He has at least the strength of a Jonin level and cannot be underestimated.
"It's Orochimaru!"
Kakashi explained to his teammates, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He had fought with Orochimaru before, and he understood how powerful Orochimaru was. If Minato-sensei hadn't come, he would have been in trouble.
Now he faced Orochimaru again, but lost his teacher's protection.
The companions beside him didn't know whether they could barely resist. If they retreated, he could stay and delay.
"Orochimaru!"
Yamato couldn't help but make a sound, and looked at Orochimaru complexly. He was a survivor of Orochimaru's experiment, and he was very conflicted when facing Orochimaru.
Hyugazo, who turned on his Byakugan, kept staring at the figure beside Orochimaru with vigilance. The hunchbacked old man was actually Scorpion's Hirayu Ko.
Scorpion himself is a master of puppets, and coupled with the third generation of Kazekage puppets, his strength is stronger than many weak ninja villages.
For Hinata Zou, Scorpion is more dangerous than Orochimaru.
Orochimaru is still able to communicate and even cooperate, but Scorpion, who is full of art, only wants to transform human puppets.
In my impression, Scorpion destroyed a country by himself and was an absolutely dangerous person.
After telling Yin the information, three magatama appeared in Yin's eyes, and she carefully watched Xia's actions. She knew that this would be a fierce battle.
Shisui stood behind Yin, quietly waiting for instructions.
While the ANBU team was observing Orochimaru and Scorpion, the two of them were also observing the team in front. Especially when they saw the Byakugan and Sharingan of the Blood Set, a gleam flashed in their eyes.
Scorpion looked at Orochimaru meaningfully and said: "Is this the reason why you hurriedly completed the task and left? Want to monopolize the Byakugan and Sharingan? You are too greedy."
Orochimaru glanced at Scorpion with sadness, and said calmly: "It's not for this reason... I'm quite surprised that they would appear here."
"Accident..." Xie snorted coldly and said, "I don't care about any accidents. My collection happens to lack the Byakugan and Sharingan. Wait, there is a caged bird? It seems to be a waste."
Scorpion spoke loudly, not caring whether the team in front of him heard him.
In his eyes, these people are already dead and will become one of his collections in the future.
Hearing Xia's words, Hinata Zang and others frowned. Xia was too arrogant, but he did have the capital to be arrogant. After hunting down the Third Kazekage, there were not many people left in the ninja world who could subdue him.
Orochimaru smiled without changing his expression and said to Scorpion: "Don't underestimate them, they are all Jounin of Konoha, including Konoha Technician and Shunshen Shisui, and even Black Cat is among them.
If they join forces to deal with you, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
After finishing speaking, Orochimaru's eyes were still scanning Hyugazo and Uchibo. These two people left a very deep impression on him, especially the former who clearly exuded a weak aura, but was always hard to see through.
In that battle a few years ago, even if Namikaze Minato hadn't arrived, he wouldn't have been able to defeat these two people.
"Orochimaru, don't play tricks on me. If you don't take action, all these collections will be mine later."
Scorpion glanced at Orochimaru beside him, he had long disliked this sinister guy.
Orochimaru didn't pay too much attention, but smiled and said: "It's all yours, but if you lose, you have to use puppetry in exchange. Your skills still have some merits."
The scorpion remained silent and jumped down from the tree.
As he jumped down, as the smoke dissipated, puppets appeared on the ground.
"They are Sunagakure's high-level puppets..." Kakashi quickly noticed the puppets on the ground. With his rich experience, he quickly recognized the models of those puppets.
After realizing that the battle was inevitable, the team used hand signals to formulate a combat plan, and the five-person team immediately separated into two teams.
Kakashi, Yamato and Shisui's team were responsible for dealing with the unfathomable puppet master, while Hinata Zou and Yin were responsible for monitoring Orochimaru who was far away in the tree.
Although in the previous dialogue with the enemy, Orochimaru had no intention of taking action.
But if you believe the enemy's words, you are a real fool. They are mature ninjas and are difficult to be deceived.
After the division of labor, the two teams rushed towards their respective enemies.
The first one to take action was Kakashi, with lightning flashing in his hand, and he rushed towards Scorpion, who was heavily protected by the puppet.
boom……
The sharp Chidori easily cut through the steel to create the puppet's body. Facing Kakashi's attack, the puppet was as fragile as tofu.
As the line of puppets was broken through, Kakashi was only a few steps away from Scorpion's body.
At this moment, the puppet that had fallen to the ground started moving again, directly surrounding Kakashi who was charging forward. Only then did Kakashi realize that the chakra thread connecting the puppet had never been broken.
With a flash of his body, Kakashi once again swept across the line of puppets and attached the detonating talisman.
Amidst bursts of explosions, dust and smoke filled the sky from the ground.
With the explosion, the puppets were destroyed one by one, and thousands of them were glowing coldly, obviously smeared with poison.
Senbon naturally cannot threaten Kakashi who has the Sharingan.
New puppets appeared, surrounded Kakashi from four directions, and breathed out blazing flames.
Seeing that the captain was at a disadvantage, Yamato immediately formed seals with his hands and shouted: "Wooden Release, Tree Jiebi!"
In an instant, walls of trees formed on the ground, blocking the attack of the flames and protecting Kakashi. After Kakashi escaped from the dangerous area, Yamato formed the seal again.
The vines that emerged from the ground instantly destroyed the puppet and attacked the scorpion.
"The puppet can release ninjutsu, who is Sunagakure?"
After getting out of danger, Kakashi discovered that he could perform ninjutsu by attacking his own puppet, which was definitely not something ordinary Sunagakure could do.
And the number of puppets controlled has exceeded the number of hands.
Faced with Mu Dun's attack, Xie couldn't hide his shock. Mu Dun was the legendary blood successor. It was said that it had been lost after the first Hokage. Konoha actually hid this hand.
However, he did not panic. He used the scorpion tail to cut off the vines and left easily.
It's just that most of the puppets released before were destroyed by Mu Dun's attack.
He also understood what Orochimaru said about not being easy to mess with. These people were indeed formidable enemies, and the Ten Machine Exercises would not be able to keep them behind.
Taking out the psychic scroll behind him, Scorpion summoned more puppets.
The stronger the enemy is, the more powerful the puppets he creates will be. The thought of having a Wooden Release in his collection makes him excited.
