Chapter 123: Would Anyone Surrender in a Life and Death Battle?
Chapter 123: Would Anyone Surrender in a Life and Death Battle?
Anko raised her eyebrows.
Obviously, he was weakest here, but she still asked, “Orochimaru, do you know this guy?”
“Still so stupid! Anko.”
Orochimaru did not answer the question but just glanced at Uehara coldly, then looked at Anko. A cruel smile flashed across his face.
“I’m very fortunate to have abandoned an idiot like you. After this long, you still haven’t changed a bit. I finally understood that some people’s stupidity is incurable…”
“Bastard!”
Anko immediately became furious!
Uehara jumped down next to Anko to stop her, then pushed the woman behind him.
Uehara found Orochimaru’s words unusual.
Throughout their dealings with others, Orochimaru rarely launched personal attacks on the weak. This deliberate irritation of Anko did not seem normal.
Uehara touched his chin and chuckled softly, “Orochimaru, do you really hate our chief examiner? Cute girls like her are rare…”
“But she’s so stupid!”
The smile on Orochimaru’s face became colder and colder, “You, me, and the old man Kosuke were all put into the Forest of Death…”
“Yeah, we shouldn’t be here.”
Uehara nodded, patted Anko behind him, and whispered, “You know, I’m the one who wants to be Chunin the most, but that old man and Orochimaru, they didn’t come here to pass the Chunin exam, they must have some sort of plot!”
“…”
Anko gritted her teeth and looked at Uehara. She said, “Who are you guys anyway!”
“An ordinary Ame ninja.”
After Uehara introduced himself, he narrowed his eyes and smiled, “Alright, examiner, you should leave first! I would help you deal with Orochimaru!”
Uehara looked at Anko, who didn’t want to leave. He glanced at Anko’s neck and said, “You have no fighting power right now. Why don’t you help me notify the Third Hokage and Kakashi and get some reinforcements…”
Whether it was the Third Hokage or Kakashi, they knew the tip of the iceberg of Uehara’s strength and thought that he was just an Ame genius ninja who had a good impression of Konoha.
Anko obviously didn’t want to leave, but she really couldn’t exert any strength right now, and staying here was equivalent to waiting to die.
Uehara patted Anko on the shoulder. A green light entered Anko’s body from his palm.
This was Astral Infusion.
10% of Uehara’s Chakra filled Anko’s body.
Uehara chose to treat Anko to increase her good feelings and get Anko to say something nice to the others later.
“This Chakra!”
Anko feels the Chakra inside her body. Her face was both surprised and happy, and with the help of this Chakra, she suppressed the curse seal again.
Anko’s eyes instantly became firm, and she turned to look at Orochimaru and said, “I’m not leaving. I must kill Orochimaru…”
Uehara, “…”
Damn, this Anko was also a hotheaded idiot, right?
Orochimaru’s expression was a bit ugly, but his expression quickly became calm again. He quietly put up two fingers, and a giant yellow snake suddenly appeared, slithering in the distance with Anko!
The smile on Uehara’s face was full of meaning as he stared at Orochimaru, “Orochimaru, aren’t you afraid of me killing her?”
On the other hand, Orochimaru chuckled and asked, “Didn’t Naraku-kun also treat her just now? What if I wanted to kill her?”
At this moment, Orochimaru felt like Uehara could read his mind.
Uehara touched his chin and stopped talking about Anko, “Well, we won’t mention that woman again. I’m here to warn you, I won’t interfere with what you want to do in Konoha, so you don’t disturb my Chunin exam.”
“Naraku-kun…”
Orochimaru’s expression gradually became a little dangerous, his fingers clenched one by one, “You should know my desire for the Sharingan. You have interfered with my plan…”
“Oh?”
Uehara glanced suspiciously at Orochimaru and said, “I accidentally disrupted your plan just now. What do you want to do? Kill me?
As a reminder, although I am not as restrained as Uchiha Itachi, I am very good at destroying my enemies. Right down to their soul…”
Orochimaru, “…”
This bastard restrained him more than Uchiha Itachi!
Orochimaru began to consider studying some techniques that could protect the soul. For example, he remembered that the Second Hokage had left behind a forbidden technique that could confine the soul to the body even if the body died.
Uehara leaned on the tree trunk, looked at Orochimaru, and said, “Orochimaru, I have given you enough time… As for the little guy Sasuke, when I finish using him, you could deal with him whatever you want.”
“How long?”
“Are you in a hurry?”
When Uehara looked at Orochimaru, a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, “Oh, I see, you want to change your body, right?”
The Akatsuki’s members all knew about the Living Corpse Reincarnation technique studied by Orochimaru. After all, this was a forbidden technique that could extend people’s life just like Sasori’s puppetry.
“Yes.”
Orochimaru did not deny it and said solemnly, “I need a body that suits me and allows me to exert all my strength and more. Sasuke has the most top-notch body in the Ninja world, Naraku-kun. If it were you, would you miss this opportunity?”
“I really wouldn’t want to miss it.”
Uehara let out a laugh and looked at Orochimaru, “Then what will you do? Stretch out your neck and let me chop it off? While I believe you would not reveal Akatsuki’s information, would you let me chase you down to the corners of the world?”
Orochimaru, “…”
“Okay, so be it!”
Uehara glanced at Orochimaru, then smiled lightly and said, “Know your place. You are just a traitor I deliberately let go. Don’t think about defying the Akatsuki’s will. I think you would not irritate someone stronger than you. Specifically, an enemy ten times more powerful, right?”
“…I understand.”
Seeing Uehara losing patience, Orochimaru withdrew without hesitation. He didn’t want to be interrupted by Uehara right now.
Konoha’s collapse plan was more important right now.
If he wanted to get Sasuke, he could just continue to wait for an opportunity. Orochimaru didn’t believe that, after the Chunin exam, Uehara would stay in Konoha.
Uehara watched Orochimaru’s figure quietly disappear. A look of worry flashed across his face. He was really worried that Orochimaru would turn around, which might disrupt his plan at this time.
After a while, Uehara thought of someone in the Forest of Death who could watch Orochimaru.
Yakushi Kabuto.
Uehara finally decided to take a gamble.
The current Kabuto was still an insignificant little chess piece. If he could solicit Kabuto to his side, he could use Kabuto to guide Orochimaru, to delay his plan.
If Kabuto refused to agree, he would just kill him!
Hmmm, doesn’t he have another way?
Uehara thought of his two new skills, and a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. If he kills Kabuto and resurrects him, repeated it several times…
Would Kabuto still not agree?
After experiencing the horror of death several times, he might recognize his position?
