Chapter 57: Byakuya: Orochimaru, you can't do anything, I said so!
"This is the one!"
Demon Sealing Sword Soul (Blue): The swordsmanship inheritance of the Demon Sealing Sword Soul, allowing one to enter a spirit state for combat.
The moment Byakuya placed his hand on Yūgao Uzuki's head,
A vast inheritance of knowledge flooded into Yūgao Uzuki's mind.
Although Byakuya no longer had use for these blue entries now,
That didn't mean these blue entries were useless.
On the other side, Yūgao Uzuki was completely shocked.
"This is!!"
Yūgao Uzuki simply couldn't believe what had happened.
Just now, Byakuya had merely touched her forehead with his hand.
An ocean-like inheritance of knowledge came gushing forth.
"It feels as if an inheritance for the Demon Sealing Sword Soul sword technique has appeared in my mind!"
Yūgao Uzuki had to admit that the sword technique inheritance Byakuya gave her...
...was a hundred times, even a thousand times stronger than the sword techniques she was currently practicing!
"Byakuya!"
Yūgao Uzuki looked at Byakuya with burning eyes.
At this moment, Byakuya's status in Yūgao Uzuki's heart had reached its peak!
"Go!"
Byakuya left everything to Yūgao Uzuki.
"What's going on? Why did the aura on this female Ninja suddenly become so much stronger?!"
On the other side, Baki's eyes were wide with shock.
At this moment, Yūgao Uzuki seemed like a completely different person.
A sharp blade, and a piercing gaze!
"This... what on earth is this!"
What exactly did Byakuya give that female Ninja?
"Die!"
In the next second, the Mortal and Spirit Blades appeared in Yūgao Uzuki's hands.
Boom!
In the following instant, Baki didn't even have time to react.
Yūgao Uzuki, wielding dual blades, appeared right in front of him!
Baki was sent flying heavily just like that.
"This... how did her speed increase so much!"
Even Shiranui Genma on the field found it somewhat hard to believe.
Subsequently, the look Shiranui Genma gave Byakuya became even more reverent!
"Wind Release: Blade of Wind!"
Baki knew he absolutely could not afford to be careless any longer.
He really might die next!
The Chakra emitting from Baki's fingertips was like a sharp knife, sweeping toward Yūgao Uzuki along with a gust of wind.
"Way of the Hunter!"
Facing the oncoming Chakra wind blade, Yūgao Uzuki showed no intention of hiding at all.
"Seeking death!"
"My Wind Release: Blade of Wind is extremely powerful!"
Seeing that Yūgao Uzuki didn't even try to dodge, Baki felt a surge of joy in his heart.
But in the next second, all the wind blades passed directly through Yūgao Uzuki's body.
"How is that possible!"
Baki couldn't have imagined that his wind blades would actually pass straight through the opponent's body!
But with a sharp expression, Yūgao Uzuki did not give Baki much time.
"Fate Sealed!"
Even Yūgao Uzuki, who had always practiced sword techniques, had to admit that this sword technique Byakuya gave her...
...was simply too strong!
The Mortal and Spirit Blades: one to slay evil, one to suppress the soul.
The Mortal Blade could cause physical damage, while the Spirit Blade could threaten the opponent's soul.
The final 'Fate Sealed' was something no Konoha-style sword technique could compare to!
Yūgao Uzuki combined her dual blades, flickering at the speed of light to pierce through the opponent's body and arrive behind them.
"How... is this possible!"
In his final moments of consciousness, Baki still couldn't believe it.
Why did that female Ninja become so strong after Byakuya's guidance?
"Byakuya, did I do it?"
At this moment, Yūgao Uzuki's eyes were still filled with disbelief.
It felt as if everything was a dream.
Then, Yūgao Uzuki hugged Byakuya, throwing herself into his embrace.
Byakuya quietly took in the fragrance emanating from Yūgao Uzuki's body.
"Thank you, Byakuya!"
In Byakuya's arms, Yūgao Uzuki spoke softly, like a delicate woman.
If it weren't for Byakuya, she wouldn't have been able to kill Baki at all.
"It's alright."
Byakuya just gave a faint smile, repeating the same sentiment.
He still very much appreciated Yūgao Uzuki's straightforward personality of daring to love and hate.
"Byakuya!"
Yūgao Uzuki looked at Byakuya with clear eyes.
Then, while Byakuya wasn't paying attention, she suddenly kissed him.
Byakuya was caught off guard by Yūgao Uzuki's sudden sneak attack.
"Alright, let's go check on the old man Third Hokage first."
Byakuya said with a faint smile.
Yūgao Uzuki's emotions had been wound too tight; it was good to let her vent a little.
However, it looked like the old man Third Hokage might not be able to hold on much longer.
"Byakuya, the Four Violet Flames Formation set up by Orochimaru is too strong; none of us can get in!"
At this time, Shiranui Genma hurriedly reported the situation regarding the Third Hokage to Byakuya.
By now, Shiranui Genma had unconsciously come to view Byakuya as a leader-like figure.
Although the Byakuya before him was not even as old as he was, that absolute strength had completely won Shiranui Genma over.
This level of strength and bearing...
...even made Shiranui Genma think he was seeing the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze!
And the strength Byakuya displayed was even greater than that of the Fourth Hokage!
"I understand!"
Byakuya nodded slightly.
Then, with a leap, he went directly to the highest point of the roof.
Yūgao Uzuki naturally followed closely; she now considered Byakuya her one and only.
And Shiranui Genma naturally didn't want to miss Byakuya taking action again.
He followed suit and arrived on the roof.
"Who is it!"
The Anbu Ninjas subconsciously raised their guard upon seeing Byakuya's arrival.
But to their surprise, Byakuya didn't even spare them a glance.
"Why are there so few Anbu Ninjas here?"
Byakuya frowned slightly.
Logically, the Anbu Ninjas under the Third Hokage should be the most numerous among all the Hokages.
"You're Byakuya!"
The group of Anbu Ninjas instantly recognized him; Byakuya was the one highly valued by the Third Hokage.
"I just sent out several teams to protect the Daimyo..."
Before the Anbu Ninja could even finish his sentence, Byakuya waved his hand impatiently.
Honestly, if such Ninjas were under his command...
...he didn't know how far he would kick them.
They couldn't get in, and could only stand by and provide commentary.
Had this generation of Anbu really become this useless?
At this moment, through the Four Violet Flames Formation, Byakuya could see that the Third Hokage was already preparing to use the Reaper Death Seal.
"Byakuya!"
Kakashi and Might Guy also caught up after clearing the Ninjas at the Chunin Exams venue.
"Hmph!"
Although Byakuya didn't fully intend to save the Third Hokage, these Anbu were simply too useless.
"Tenfold Burst!"
A powerful force gathered within Byakuya's body.
Then, blue steam Chakra erupted directly.
"This is... the Eight Gates!"
Might Guy hadn't expected that Byakuya opening the Eight Gates seemed to have no restrictions at all.
One must know that even for Might Guy, opening the seventh gate once required a long period of rest to gradually recover.
And even then, a full recovery was impossible.
But for Byakuya, the Eight Gates seemed like a common attack.
"Stand back a bit, don't let me accidentally injure you!"
Byakuya glanced indifferently at the crowd, and in the next second, everyone except Yūgao Uzuki retreated quite far back.
Only Yūgao Uzuki had absolute trust in Byakuya.
"Evening Elephant!"
Byakuya began to burn his blood, producing red steam on his body's surface, and created powerful air cannons by striking the air.
Furthermore, the power of the five Evening Elephant strikes increased progressively!
But with the addition of the Tenfold Burst, Byakuya's first strike completely smashed through the so-called Four Violet Flames Formation.
"What the hell!"
Inside the Four Violet Flames Formation, Orochimaru was completely dumbfounded.
Wait, what's the situation!
And the initiators of the Four Violet Flames Formation—Kidōmaru, Sakon, Jirobo, and Tayuya—were actually blown to death by this powerful impact.
"This... this..."
The watching Anbu members could no longer find words to describe what they were seeing.
It was, quite frankly, an exaggeration, a complete and utter exaggeration.
The dozens of Anbu surrounding the barrier were completely useless.
But Byakuya was able to punch right through this so-called Four Violet Sun Formation with a single strike.
"Is he really only in his teens?"
The Anbu Ninja could no longer believe that Byakuya was so young.
"Is that you, Byakuya?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had already performed the Reaper Death Seal, looked relieved when he saw Byakuya arrive.
He was incredibly moved that Byakuya would come to save an old man like him.
After all, not a single one of those he considered friends had shown up yet.
"Retreat!"
Seeing this, Orochimaru immediately ordered the First Hokage and Second Hokage to protect him.
Because Hiruzen Sarutobi was momentarily distracted by Byakuya's arrival, he failed to grab hold of the First and Second Hokage.
"Leave the rest to me!"
Looking at the doomed Hiruzen Sarutobi, Byakuya spoke calmly.
"No, cough, absolutely not!"
"Orochimaru is controlling the First and Second Hokage. Don't clash with him. Let me handle this, cough."
Hiruzen Sarutobi knew he was certain to die today.
Naturally, he wouldn't let Byakuya, the future of Konoha, risk his life against a guy like Orochimaru.
"Sigh!"
Byakuya sighed at the sight; a man's words are kind when death is near.
"Orochimaru, your good days are over!"
Byakuya looked at Orochimaru with an indifferent expression... "From the looks of it, your plan must have failed!"
Seeing so many people gathered here, Orochimaru knew that the Hidden Sand Village and Kabuto's side had already failed.
"What a pity. However, with these two here..."
"I'm afraid you won't be able to lay a finger on me!"
Orochimaru was immensely confident; the First and Second Hokage had given him great assurance.
"Don't think you're the only one who can use Wood Release."
"Don't forget, the original user of Wood Release is right here!"
Orochimaru was full of confidence.
It was as if nothing could possibly defeat him.
"Byakuya, be extremely careful!"
Yūgao Uzuki also spoke up to stop him.
Mainly, she didn't want Byakuya to get hurt.
And to speak bluntly, the Third Hokage had already cast the Reaper Death Seal.
Since the Reaper Death Seal couldn't be stopped anyway, it was better to let the Third Hokage finish it.
"Don't worry, I have my own plans."
Byakuya simply smiled at Yūgao Uzuki's concern.
He naturally had his own intentions.
Never mind that Orochimaru had the First and Second Hokage.
Even if the First Hokage himself were here in person, Byakuya was confident he could trade blows with him.
Let alone the Edo Tensei version currently present, which possessed only a fraction of the First Hokage's power.
"Orochimaru, you can't achieve anything."
"Even with the First and Second Hokage here, they won't be able to protect you. I said it!"
Byakuya's domineering words immediately invigorated the people around them.
"Is that so? I find that hard to believe!"
Orochimaru gave a sinister smile.
He then positioned the First and Second Hokage in front of him for protection.
"As long as I watch out for the old man's Reaper Death Seal, who can stop me!"
Orochimaru's confidence stemmed from his trust in his Edo Tensei technique.
"Edo Tensei is the most broken Ninjutsu in the scroll of seals!"
"Aside from me, no one has been able to master it!"
"Now, you can let me leave, and we won't interfere with each other. How about it?"
Orochimaru began to use the power of the First and Second Hokage as leverage to negotiate with Byakuya.
Faced with this, Byakuya didn't take Orochimaru seriously at all.
"Orochimaru, I don't think you understood my words yet."
"I said, today! You! Will achieve! Nothing! I said it!"
Then, Byakuya pressed his hands together and began to form Hand Seals.
"What kind of Hand Seals are those?"
The well-traveled Orochimaru failed to recognize the Hand Seals at first glance.
But it didn't matter; he still didn't recognize them a moment later.
Because by then, the Ninjutsu was already complete.
