The Ninja in the back was about to form hand seals to intercept the attack, but a large hand made of a black skeleton reached out and directly confronted the Fireball.
The Fireball and the Susanoo's hand collided, and surprisingly, the Fireball didn't explode, but instead vanished directly into the skeletal hand.
Hiruzen Sarutobi: ???
A pure energy flowed into Feng Ye's body along the skeleton, but the amount was too small.
What in the world is going on?! Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes widened, staring in disbelief at the enormous skeleton before him, secretly wondering, 'Could this really be the legendary Susanoo?'
A thin layer of sweat seeped from his forehead.
Just then, a clear and firm shout came: "Keep moving forward!"
The speaker was Feng Ye. After giving the order to the Uchiha Clan members, he turned his head and stared intently at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was full of apprehension.
Facing such a powerful enemy, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew he couldn't show any sign of retreat.
He took a deep breath, bit his finger without hesitation, and chanted, "Summoning Technique!"
In an instant, thick smoke billowed up, and as the smoke gradually dispersed, an astonishingly large giant ape appeared before everyone.
This ape was covered from head to toe in hair as hard as steel, its color leaning towards brownish-red, exuding an ancient and majestic aura.
"Sarutobi, what is this thing?!" As soon as Enma appeared, he saw Feng Ye covered by the Susanoo and was also greatly surprised, unable to help but ask.
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't have time for much explanation, only hastily replied, "Later, the top priority is to deal with the formidable enemy! Quick, Enma, transform into the Adamantine Staff!"
Hearing his master's command, Enma dared not hesitate for a moment and immediately responded, "Alright!"
Immediately after, a flash of light enveloped him, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a gleaming golden staff of infinite power.
Hiruzen Sarutobi reached out and gripped it tightly in his hand, then swung it with all his might. For a moment, the wind howled, and his momentum was like a rainbow.
A roar was heard: "Wind Release: Adamantine Cyclone!" In an instant, a fierce wind howled, sweeping out like a raging dragon.
The Adamantine Staff, imbued with unparalleled power, smashed heavily onto the Susanoo's skeleton.
With a dull thud, the first-stage skeleton trembled slightly, and a subtle crack appeared on its surface.
However, this blow didn't cause too much damage to the Susanoo. Immediately after, the huge skeletal hand, like Mount Tai crushing an egg, slammed towards Sarutobi with overwhelming force.
Facing such a fierce attack, Sarutobi dared not be negligent in the slightest, quickly brandishing the Adamantine Staff in his hand, trying to block this terrifying blow.
But despite putting all his effort into it, he was ultimately unable to resist the enormous, mountain-toppling force.
With a loud 'bang,' Sarutobi was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, violently thrown away by this powerful force.
Feng Ye, seeing this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his hands quickly clasped together. In this instant, something magical happened—the tiny crack instantly healed, as if it had never been damaged.
Feng Ye's Mangekyo Sharingan was fully activated. In an instant, a vast and profound Chakra surged wildly from his body like a raging tide. The Chakra, appearing as a mysterious black, first swirled and condensed around Feng Ye's body, then rapidly began to outline the gigantic and robust skeletal frame of a human.
These bones quickly pieced together, forming a massive skeletal frame in the blink of an eye, securely protecting Feng Ye within it.
Not far from this location, there was a tall, slender man with long, lustrous black hair.
He gently licked the corner of his mouth with his tongue, and his already somewhat pale face was now flushed with an unusual red due to extreme excitement.
His narrow eyes were fixed on this side; to be precise, his gaze was completely focused on the Susanoo.
"Sharingan?" Orochimaru's already bloodless face now showed an extremely strong interest, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.
During this period, Orochimaru had been hiding in Konoha Village.
After some covert investigation, he had confirmed that Danzo, that old man, was dead.
As for the cooperation between Konoha and the Akatsuki Organization, he disdained it.
Konoha Village was already too preoccupied with its own affairs to worry about such matters. Even his two old teammates, Tsunade and Jiraiya, who once fought alongside him, had returned to Konoha. From this, it was evident that Konoha Village was truly lacking in talent and struggling at the moment.
On the other side of the battlefield, Hiruzen Sarutobi was once again violently struck down by Uchiha Kaede.
His body crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
He struggled to his feet, knowing that he couldn't defeat Uchiha Kaede.
Unless... he used that forbidden Jutsu. However, the thought of paying with his life to perform this technique filled Hiruzen Sarutobi with intense fear and unwillingness.
He didn't want to die just yet, so it seemed there was only one path left—to escape!
He released Enma, allowing him to return to his original form. Enma's eyes were filled with determination; man and beast exchanged glances, understanding each other's intentions.
In an instant, Hiruzen Sarutobi's figure retreated swiftly like lightning, his speed astonishing.
At the same time, Enma let out a deafening roar from the side, fearlessly pouncing towards the imposing Susanoo.
Feng Ye, standing in the distance, frowned slightly. He calmly waved his hands, directing the Susanoo to unleash another incredibly powerful punch.
With a loud 'bang,' Enma's massive body, like a kite with a broken string, plummeted directly from the sky.
Feng Ye's eyes remained cold and merciless. He expressionlessly continued to control the Susanoo, taking giant strides, rapidly pursuing Hiruzen Sarutobi in the direction he fled.
At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not sit idly by. While desperately fleeing, he unleashed various Ninjutsu, attempting to obstruct the relentlessly pursuing enemy behind him.
Unfortunately, the Susanoo was incredibly powerful. Those seemingly fierce Ninjutsu attacks were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of it, easily broken through. Thus, the distance between the two sides grew shorter and shorter.
Just as the Susanoo's sky-obscuring hand was about to firmly grasp Hiruzen Sarutobi, suddenly, a black shadow flashed by with lightning speed.
Unexpectedly, Orochimaru, who had been hidden in the shadows, decisively made his move at this moment!
He swiftly waved his hands, instantly unleashing several thick and incredibly flexible giant snakes.
These snakes shot out like lightning, tightly coiling around the Susanoo's huge and mighty arm.
This sudden attack caused the Susanoo's movements to noticeably stall, and its previously fierce pursuit also slowed slightly.
Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth and, with his last bit of strength, used the Body Flicker Technique, his figure flashing and disappearing from the spot, successfully escaping the danger. (Someone mentioned earlier that Danzo died too easily; this is for torturing him to death later.)
Feng Ye then looked at Orochimaru, "You are, Orochimaru?"
"You recognize me," Orochimaru smiled.
"A Konoha S-rank rogue Ninja, actually saving Konoha's Hokage? Is your teacher-student bond that deep?" Feng Ye looked at Orochimaru, guessing whether he was male or female.
Although this guy personally killed Hiruzen Sarutobi in the original work, according to the later deductions of many Naruto fans, this guy actually gave Hiruzen Sarutobi the most perfect ending.
"No, I'm just curious about your power. Is this the legendary Mangekyo Sharingan?" Orochimaru denied.
Feng Ye deactivated his Susanoo and stood opposite Orochimaru, "Just curious? Then I'll let you witness it!"
Feng Ye knew that Orochimaru in the original work became obsessed with Sasuke only after seeing Itachi's Sharingan, viewing his body as the perfect vessel for reincarnation.
Now that he had seen the Susanoo, he probably also developed an interest in the Sharingan. This guy lived until the very end, surviving various attempts to kill him.
Amaterasu! Feng Ye's eyes widened, and black flames instantly enveloped Orochimaru's body.
But that body showed no reaction at all. Feng Ye's eyes slightly narrowed as several giant snakes, coming from behind him, had already coiled around him.
Orochimaru appeared behind him, smiling sinisterly.
Just as Orochimaru's hand was raised, ready to launch an attack, a red light flashed in Feng Ye's eyes, and the Mangekyo Sharingan instantly activated its Genjutsu—Binding Illusion.
In an instant, an invisible force, centered on Feng Ye, spread out like a large net, enveloping Orochimaru.
Orochimaru felt his body become incredibly heavy in an instant, as if bound tightly by countless invisible ropes. His limbs couldn't move an inch, and he froze in place, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Feng Ye slowly turned around, looking expressionlessly at the immobilized Orochimaru.
"Kotoamatsukami!!"
