Chapter 198
Orochimaru sneered sinisterly, "Tsunade, Naruto, your attention seems to be focused only on the First Hokage..."
"Did you think I would definitely not make a move?!"
Naruto stared blankly at the kusanagi sword that had extended and pierced through his chest, a sharp pain searing through him!
Pfft—
He violently coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.
His heart had been pierced through!
Jiraiya's view was blocked by the dense forest, but hearing Tsunade's cry of alarm, he knew something was wrong and immediately tried to rush over with all his might!
However, he only saw this despairing scene... "Naruto!"
Jiraiya instantly roared in grief!
Orochimaru, however, was smiling sinisterly with satisfaction.
But at that very moment... "Ah ah ah ah ah—"
Naruto, whose heart had been pierced by the kusanagi sword, was surprisingly still not dead!
Moreover, after a furious roar, he suddenly grabbed the kusanagi sword, making it difficult for Orochimaru to move, leaving him wide-eyed and caught off guard. Naruto unexpectedly unleashed an unimaginable power... Streaks of powerful Chakra furiously gathered in his palm, rapidly condensing, compressing to the extreme, forming a blue ball of Chakra light!
It bloomed brilliantly under the astonished gaze of the Legendary Sannin!
It was... "Rasengan!!!"
Chapter 141: Naruto, Resurrected! Target: Sixth Hokage! Please give me monthly votes!!!
On the battlefield, sudden changes occurred!
Whether it was Orochimaru's sudden attack, taking advantage of Naruto and Tsunade having just sealed Senju Hashirama, and piercing Naruto's heart with the kusanagi sword while he was caught off guard.
Or the fact that he was still not dead, even unleashing unprecedented power, and suddenly performing the Rasengan, which he hadn't fully mastered yet... All of it left the Legendary Sannin dumbfounded!
"Naruto... that Ninjutsu is..."
Jiraiya looked at Naruto, whose mouth was overflowing with blood, his face pale... His heart was filled with anxiety and shock.
Tsunade, whose hemophobia was acting up, seemed to see a will that transcended fear... "Uzumaki... Naruto..."
But the most shocked was Orochimaru himself.
This sword strike actually failed to kill Naruto!
Moreover, it even made him unleash new power!
"Who exactly is that guy?!"
However, everything happened in a flash of lightning.
Naruto's Rasengan, bursting forth for the first time, its blue Chakra light blooming brilliantly, formed an extremely compressed, infinitely condensed, violent sphere that slammed fiercely into Orochimaru's face!
Rumble—
Boom!!!
A full-force attack at close range!
Even Orochimaru couldn't help but let out a scream. His entire snake-like face was instantly battered beyond recognition, like a tree struck by an explosion, a huge spherical cavity appearing, and the wildly swirling Chakra violently exploded the surrounding area!
With one strike... Orochimaru's head was completely blown off!
This scene also stunned Shizune in the distance... "That, that move is..."
"It actually blew Orochimaru's head off?!"
"What terrifying power..."
Orochimaru's head was blown off, but his long, white snake-like neck could still move, even retracting sharply... However, the kusanagi swordthat had pierced Naruto's chest remained in Naruto's body...
"Naruto!"
Tsunade finally reacted. Looking at Naruto, who was falling backward, she rushed forward, no longer caring about the blood dripping from him, and embraced him!
"Quick, we must stop the bleeding immediately!"
Powerful green light, the so-called medical Chakra, instantly appeared on her hands and was furiously infused into Naruto's wound, heart, and every cell of his body... Shizune also rushed forward, activating her own medical Ninjutsu.
Jiraiya was the most fearful and worried.
He rushed forward and said to Tsunade in a deep voice, "This sword..."
Tsunade's face was covered in cold sweat, but she still nodded calmly.
"It must be pulled out, Jiraiya..."
"After that..."
Jiraiya understood her meaning, but one of the Legendary Sannin, who had experienced countless life-and-death battles and dangerous situations, now found his hands trembling slightly... "Naruto, no... I will never let you die in front of me!"
Jiraiya slowly pulled out the kusanagi sword and threw it to the ground in the distance.
Meanwhile, Tsunade and Shizune immediately began to treat Naruto... "Lady Tsunade, this, this wound..."
"Hmm, for an ordinary person, even a powerful Jonin, such a blow would be fatal. They would probably be dead by now, but..."
"As expected of a member of the Uzumaki Clan, or perhaps, Naruto's own vitality is simply too tenacious?"
"Tsunade, you must save Naruto!"
"Even if it means exchanging my life for his, I don't care!"
Jiraiya was unprecedentedly solemn.
Tsunade looked at him, her face filled with fear and desolation... "I understand everything you're saying!"
"But..."
Just then.
Orochimaru, whose head had been blown off by the Rasengan, appeared before everyone once again!
Shizune exclaimed in shock, "How could this be..."
"His head was blown off, yet he's still not dead..."
Jiraiya's face also looked extremely grim.
"That Orochimaru guy, is he really like a white snake, able to shed his skin and regenerate endlessly?!"
Orochimaru sneered, "I didn't expect to be outwitted by that Naruto guy..."
"He truly is the most outstanding genius Ninja I've ever seen!"
"It's just a pity..."
"Heh, he won't survive!"
Tsunade roared, "He will!"
"As long as I'm here, Naruto will never die!"
Orochimaru sneered, "Even you can't save him now!"
"Not to mention, I won't give you that chance!"
He himself, along with the still unsealed Edo Tensei Senju Tobirama, once again charged towards Tsunade's side!
"Jiraiya!"
"I understand!"
Jiraiya slammed his hand on the ground!
"Earth Release! Swamp of the Underworld!"
Immediately, the entire ground instantly turned into a muddy swamp. Even the towering trees of the Deep Forest Emergence couldn't help but sink into it one by one... Orochimaru and Senju Tobiramaalso fell into the mud, unable to extricate themselves for a moment... But Orochimaruimmediately sneered and spat himself out from his gaping mouth!
"Die, Jiraiya!"
Orochimaru shot out, instantly re-engaging Jiraiyain battle.
At the same time, the Edo Tensei Senju Tobiramaalso escaped the mud and joined the fray. Although Jiraiya was powerful, fighting two opponents, and strong ones like Orochimaru and Senju Tobirama, he gradually fell into a disadvantage...
However, Tsunade was at a critical moment treating Naruto, so he couldn't possibly ask for help!
He could only hold on with all his might.
Orochimaru laughed maniacally, "Tsunade, let's see which side you can save!"
"If you want to save that brat Uzumaki Naruto, then just watch Jiraiya die in front of you!"
"If you want to save Jiraiya, then you can only let the brat die!"
Tsunade took a deep breath.
"Orochimaru, I told you long ago..."
"Don't underestimate me!"
She suddenly stood up, formed hand signs, and her entire body's Chakra violently erupted!
The immense power caused her twin pigtails to fly up!
"Ninjutsu! Yin Seal!"
"Creation Rebirth!"
In an instant, not only did the wounds on Tsunade's body rapidly heal, but her powerful Chakra even surpassed her peak state, reaching an unimaginable level!
"That, what is that..."
Tsunade sneered, "Orochimaru, did you think that only you were creating new Ninjutsu all these years?!"
Shizune, however, was astonished.
"Lady Tsunade..."
"She released all the accumulated Chakra from before, and the Yin Seal mark on her forehead completely disappeared..."
"For Naruto, for Lord Jiraiya, it seems she's willing to risk her own life!"
Even Orochimaru couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"So that's it, is that a secret technique to store Chakra daily and release it at critical moments to stimulate cell regeneration?"
"As expected of Tsunade, I truly underestimated you..."
Tsunade roared, instantly unleashing terrifying power, leaping up and flying over!
She slammed a powerful kick down towards Orochimaru!
