Chapter 115 Are You My Descendant?

Ten minutes ago.

Goji Yagura was crushed by eight pythons as thick as an adult's arm, and his entire body was broken. Like a bag of garbage, he was thrown by Orochimaru on the rocky beach.

"As expected of an old man who participated in the Second Ninja World War, he solved a shadow so easily. It seems that the leader has arranged a good companion for me this time."

Biwa Juzo sat down panting and praised Orochimaru generously.

Many people don't believe it, but Biwa Juzo has always been a very easy-going person and is not averse to dealing with people. He even longs to have (at least) a teammate fighting side by side like before.

"Hehe, although I am very pleased with your evaluation, I always feel that today's victory is a bit too easy..."

Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils spewed out terrifying light in the night.

"If he was just a Mizukage, this would be normal. But apart from that, Yagura is a perfect Jinchūriki. Logically, he should have more cards, but his performance just now really doesn't deserve the word 'perfect'."

Being defeated before he could even transform into a tailed beast is a shame among Jinchūriki.

"You are too suspicious. He has no rivals in the Hidden Mist Village. He hasn't fought against someone who can match him for many years. It's normal for him to slack off and retreat."

Biwa Juzo stretched the tail of the beheading sword towards the pool of blood under Yagura.

The blood flowed to the blade as if summoned, repairing several obvious gaps on the beheading sword.

"Besides, when I fought him, it was not easy at all. Yagura chased me like a mad dog, as if he had to kill me, a former traitor. At that time, his attention was all focused on me, and you took the opportunity to attack in the dark. It's normal to have such a result, isn't it?"

He didn't have so many doubts. Sometimes S-level tasks are actually as easy as C-level tasks. This situation also happens.

"It's barely justifiable."

After a moment's silence, Orochimaru hummed in agreement.

"It's just that there are too many coincidences, which makes people suspicious."

He looked around and added, "Hoshigaki Kisame and the close Anbu of the Mizukage chose this time to carry out a confidential mission. When I heard about this, I thought Yagura had discovered us, so he deliberately set a trap for us to jump into... But in this situation, they didn't show up, it seems that they are really not there."

"Since luck is on our side, we should accept it with pleasure. Such good things are not common."

Biwa Juzo asked: "Speaking of which, what should we do next? Should we take this guy and the tailed beast in his body back to the Land of Rain?"

"No. He can't live that long, and I don't want to carry a time bomb with me."

Orochimaru shook his head, and a big lump swelled up on his slender neck.

The big lump kept rising along Orochimaru's throat, and finally, he vomited out a rough pottery like a water jar from his mouth, which looked like a water jar of an ordinary family in arid areas.

"What is this?" Biwa Juzo looked at the jar and couldn't see anything special about it.

"Because the Sand Village's sealing technique for the Jinchūriki has always been hard to describe, the probability of the One-Tailed Jinchūriki going crazy has always been the highest, so he is often killed."

Orochimaru held the water jar and placed it one meter away from Yagura.

"In order to prevent the death of the tailed beast and the Jinchūriki at the same time, resulting in the loss of the village's strongest fighting force, the Second Kazekage used magnetic escape to create a container for temporarily detaining the tailed beast. In this way, when the Jinchūriki goes crazy and no replacement Jinchūriki is found, the Sand Ninjas can pull out the One-Tailed and put it in the container in advance until a new Jinchūriki is selected..."

He stared at the water jar and spit out his snake tongue.

"The jar in my hand is one of the tailed beast containers made by the Second Kazekage himself. Normally, the first four tailed beasts with the fewest tails should be able to fit in it."

"It's really eye-opening. You know his hometown better than Scorpion does."

Biwa Juzo exclaimed, and became more and more satisfied with Orochimaru as his teammate, because the latter completely made up for his shortcomings.

Recalling that he was almost killed by Kakuzu and Scorpion when he cooperated with them before, this Orochimaru was so kind that he was like an angel.

Little did he know that if he had a blood limit or some secret technique, he would have died in a laboratory by now.

Although Orochimaru is a collector, a mere beheading sword is not worth it for him to risk offending the Akatsuki organization to kill Biwa Juzo. Besides, he also needs this helper to help in the future.

"Next, I will use the technique to transfer the tailed beast chakra in Yagura's body into this jar. The whole process will last about fifteen minutes."

"I will stay here in case anyone disturbs you." Biwa Juzo promised.

"Then congratulate us in advance on the successful completion of this mission."

Before Orochimaru made a seal, he glanced at the cliff not far away. The small snakes scattered around told him that there was a person hiding there.

[It's just a Mist Hidden Demon, there's no need to spend too much time on him, wait until this is over before dealing with him. After all, that's an elite jonin-level 'sacrifice'...]

In this way, Orochimaru began the technique of transferring the tailed beast chakra.

Ten minutes later, when he had just transferred two-thirds of the tailed beast chakra, an uninvited guest suddenly arrived and chopped off his head with a swift knife before Biwa Juzo, the protector, could react.

Time returns to the present.

Giyuu's Flame Tiger roared with a distant roar before exploding, engulfing everything around Orochimaru into a sea of ​​fire. Thick smoke from the combustion and smoke from the explosion rose into the sky, and the fire dyed a small area of ​​the sky an ominous orange.

Yiyong stared over there, his brows furrowed under the mask, and he gently twisted his ankle.

After all, he is not Anjuro, and he does not have a body with strong recovery power. Rushing for sixteen hours in a row and using the breath of fire, Ichino kata and Shiranui hundreds of times intermittently, undoubtedly put a great burden on his legs, which were already somewhat numb at this time.

In comparison, the lack of chakra was not a problem. When entering Kirigakure Village, he used Eleven Type Nagi to convert a large amount of chakra when he withstood the attack, which is still sufficient so far.

"Kurama, is Orochimaru dead?"

Yiyong asked softly.

The little Kyuubi's pointed head poked out from Giyuu's high collar, "The chakra has been weakened, but it's still far from death."

"...Can't even a flame of nearly 2,000 degrees kill him?"

Considering Orochimaru's difficult self-preservation ability, Giyuu chose to use the breath of fire, hoping to completely turn every cell in Orochimaru into ashes.

After all, who knows if the other party has a way to escape by turning into more than a thousand pieces of meat?

Giyong didn't want to make the same mistakes that his predecessors had made, so he tried his best to make a move.

But now it seems that the situation is not so optimistic. He used all his strength to drive the Breath of Fire to increase the temperature of the flames, but still failed to kill Orochimaru.

This guy who resembles Muzan Kibutsuji in many aspects is indeed very good at saving lives.

Under the mask, Yiyong's face was as dark as water.

[You can no longer use Shiranui, otherwise Orochimaru's legs will go wrong when he escapes, and he will not be able to guarantee a timely pursuit. Also, it's better to save some chakra before making sure to kill. 】

Thinking of this, the chakra knife in his hand gradually changed color, from red representing fire attribute chakra to ice blue representing water attribute chakra, and his breathing method gradually switched to the water breathing he was most familiar with.

At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew on the other side, the smoke and dust dispersed, and the fire gradually extinguished, revealing the hidden situation.

A door with a terrifying and exaggerated shape and primitive materials stood among the melted rocks. It looked quite majestic in the twisted air, but a large hole was melted out in the middle.

Orochimaru was behind the big hole, his whole body scorched black, his hands maintaining the seal of Wind Release and Great Breakthrough.

[Can’t you even hold Rashomon? The last time this happened was when Jiraiya's family used senjutsu to perform fire escape... Sure enough, there was something wrong with this guy's chakra. 】

It turned out that at the critical moment of life and death, when all the snakes were missing, Orochimaru had to summon the more expensive Rashomon from hell. This summoned object was rumored to be able to withstand all ninjutsu.

But now it seems that the rumors are just rumors. Facing the special chakra, Rashomon's defensive capabilities are very limited.

Rashomon only shared part of the damage for him, but the remaining fire still severely damaged his body, which shows how domineering this fire escape is.

"vomit--"

There was no other way, Orochimaru had no choice but to give up this body and spit out a brand new self.

Across the Rashomon entrance, he looked at Giyuu with extremely wary eyes.

In less than a minute, he was forced to perform two Orochi-style substitution techniques. The last time he was so miserable was when he faced Payne.

[Listening to his voice, it sounds like he is just a kid? 】

Just as he was thinking about whether he should accept the challenge to find out what happened or escape with the water jar, a water dragon rose from a distance and pounced on where Yiyong was.

It was the Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet used by Juuzou Loquat, who had just struggled to get up and was still vomiting blood at the mouth. This ninjutsu is the most powerful ninjutsu in Water Release.

"good chance!"

Seeing that Yiyong's attention seemed to be diverted by Loquat Juzo, Orochimaru twisted his body and escaped underground to sneak forward, intending to cooperate with Loquat Juzo in a combined attack and explore the depth of this enemy.

In this way, Yiyong was caught in a pincer attack from both directions -

Water spray bombs fell from the sky, and dozens of venomous snakes with sharp teeth suddenly emerged from the ground under his feet, aiming at his vitals like bullets from a sniper rifle. There seemed to be no way out.

"Six Patterns: Twisting Vortex."

Yiyong was extremely calm. His feet gently left the ground and rose into the sky like a propeller. The chakra knife in his hand faced the cold light of the water dragon and pierced its head.

"That's just a change in the form of water attribute chakra. How can you still block an entire water dragon with a thin blade?"

When Loquat Juuzang saw this scene, his eyes burst out with the hope of victory, and the water dragon bit faster.

However, as Yiyong reversed his body and suddenly landed on the ground, the water dragon bullet seemed to be dragged by the knife, forcibly bypassing the body of Yiyong it was supposed to attack, and plunged into the ground at Yiyong's feet!

"This is--"

Not only Loquat Juzo who controlled the water dragon, but also Momochi Zabuza who was hiding behind the cliff was shocked.

I didn't expect that this little dwarf who didn't know where he came from could actually control the water dragon bullets cast by others with his sword skills!

"I told you, don't get in my way."

[Loyal accomplice? In this case...]

Yiyong glanced at the remains of the poisonous snakes on the ground, and immediately cast his sights in the direction of Biwa Juzang, and threw the beheading sword in his left hand at the opponent without warning.

Biwa Juzang was not worried but happy - the sword was not flying fast, and there was no difference between it and returning it to him. Therefore, he not only did not dodge, but even took the initiative to meet it.

But just as he was about to hold the hilt of the sword and regain the weapon that had accompanied him for many years, Yiyong raised his left hand and shot a very fast transparent water arrow from his fingertips, which was the first to arrive and hit the center of the broad surface of the beheading sword accurately.

"Shizuku Wave Ripple Thrust· Rapid Stream."

Biwa Juzang, who was holding the hilt of the sword, had no time to be surprised, and felt an abnormal tremor on the weapon.

He cast his eyes, and then he was horrified to find that the wide blade of the beheading sword had cracks in the shape of water waves at some point!

This was not over yet. The next moment, the broken beheading sword suddenly exploded and spread in front of him. At this distance, hundreds of sharp fragments penetrated his whole body without any hindrance, including the vital parts of the human body where the key blood vessels were located.

Almost instantly, Biwa Juzo, one of the seven members of the Mist Hidden Seven, became a red cactus holding a bald handle.

"The beheading sword, is it completely destroyed?"

His astonished eyes left the handle and looked at Giyuu who was already fighting with Orochimaru, muttering: "What a terrible swordsmanship."

After speaking, Biwa Juzo's body was covered with blood, and he knelt down with his knees bent, and then fell forward on the ground, and the blood under his body gathered like a stream.

At this speed, he only needed a few minutes to die from excessive blood loss.

"Master Zabuza, did you see it?"

Bai retracted his neck and asked excitedly.

He knew that Zabuza Momochi was trained as the new generation of the master of the beheading sword, and even if his ability was stronger than that of Biwa Juzo, it was not much stronger.

The masked man who looked only as tall as a child destroyed the beheading sword and Biwa Juzo with just a casual blow, and was even unwilling to pay a little more attention to him! If Master Zabuza had any thoughts about that person, he would probably have the same fate.

Zabuza did not answer, but his silence was enough to explain everything.

"Who is that person?"

On the other side, Orochimaru, who was fighting fiercely with Giyuu in close combat, had the same doubts.

At first, he saw that the person who came was always killing, and thought it was the insurance left by the Mizukage, but after fighting for so long, the other party obviously did not care about the life and death of the Mizukage, but his killing intention towards him increased.

"Hiding Shadow Snake Hand!"

The two ninja swords kept clashing, and Orochimaru's modified body swung the sword blade, barely keeping up with Giyuu's speed. It seemed that he was better at swordsmanship than the likes of Kuroki Raiga and Biwa Juzo.

In addition to his swift and tricky attacks, the various poisonous snakes that kept pouring out from his sleeves, collar, and mouth also put Giyuu under a lot of pressure-

These poisonous snakes either bit, or sprayed venom with their fangs, or simply spit out poisonous mist, making it difficult to defend against. Thanks to his dynamic vision that can see through the world, he was able to perfectly avoid all attacks.

However, it was too risky for Orochimaru to dare to fight with the pillar in close combat.

"Waterwheel!"

Giyuu's seemingly ordinary flip and slash, but he slashed out two water wheels with serrated teeth, which instantly cut off the necks of all the poisonous snakes and turned over to crush Orochimaru.

The latter barely dodged, but saw a horizontal water wheel following closely behind, and quickly raised his blade to try to block it.

It's just that his current weapon is only slightly stronger than an ordinary blade.

The high-speed rotating water wheel and the blade collided for only half a second before the latter was completely cut off. Then the water wheel was no longer obstructed and cut off Orochimaru's waist neatly!

"Another water-style ninjutsu I've never seen before!"

The upper half of Orochimaru's body flew out and spit out a python, which then spit out a sharp blade from its mouth and stabbed at Giyuu.

He didn't want to kill, but just to delay a little time. The upper and lower parts of the severed waist "grew" lush snakes at the same time and flew towards each other, and actually successfully reconnected Orochimaru's divided body.

But this time he learned his lesson and didn't fight Giyuu again. Instead, he threw a kunai in Giyuu's direction, retreating to the place where Biwa Juuzou and the Fourth Mizukage fell to the ground, while quickly forming seals.

"Shadow Clone Shuriken Jutsu!"

When the shuriken, which was originally only one, approached Giyuu, it suddenly became dense and overwhelming!

Giyuu didn't care and shot another water blade from his left hand. After the water blade hit an incoming kunai, it caused a chain reaction, causing all the kunai to collide with each other in mid-air and fall down one after another, leaving a path for Giyuu to pass through unimpeded.

Orochimaru, who had already arrived beside Biwa Juzo and was leaning down, saw this scene and immediately felt familiar. He shouted in surprise: "Are you from the Uchiha clan?"

In the ninja world, some abilities cannot be imitated, such as the famous Uchiha shuriken technique in the ninja world, which requires considerable dynamic vision to achieve.

Even though Orochimaru's own dynamic vision of both eyes is far superior to that of ordinary people, he still cannot accurately judge the trajectory of thousands of kunai like Giyuu just did.

Therefore, in addition to Uchiha, Orochimaru couldn't think of anyone else who could do this. The only strange thing is that there is no red light flashing in the opponent's mask.

"..."

Giyuu took off his mask, revealing an unbelievably young face. Orochimaru's already slender pupils shrank suddenly.

Before leaving Konoha, Orochimaru had already made plans for Uchiha Itachi's body, so how could he not know about the latter's two younger brothers.

The Uchiha clan has dark blue eyes, a numb expression, and a face that is 60 or 70% similar to Uchiha Itachi - these characteristics successfully allowed Orochimaru, who likes to collect intelligence, to get the answers he wanted.

"I remember... your name is Giyu, and you have a twin brother named Sasuke. I met you not long after you were born. If I remember correctly, you are not yet ten years old."

Orochimaru concealed the disbelief in his eyes, and the intense desire that followed.

He never expected that at such a young age, the opponent could force him into a situation where he couldn't use the necessary technique.

Also, what's the matter with Jiraiya's use of senjutsu, which is normal chakra?

[If this child really masters the magic of immortality, he will be more suitable to be my container than anyone else. 】

Orochimaru's heart was filled with intense greed.

"I only have a vague impression of you."

Yiyong continued to move forward, his eyes scanning Loquat Juuzang's body.

"Do you want to save him? With his strength, even if he gets completely better, it won't help."

"Uchiha Giyu..."

Seeing Giyuu getting closer and closer to him, Orochimaru licked his lips nervously.

"Are you so eager to kill me because of what happened between me and your brother Uchiha Itachi not long ago? In fact, that was a huge misunderstanding. Why don't we take a break and have a good talk? How about it? I can apologize and give you some compensation. There is no need to go into such a big fight."

"Shisui reminded me that you always like to 'talk' with others."

Yiyong responded indifferently, "But the fate of those people is not very good."

"Shunshen Shisui?"

At the mention of this name, Orochimaru's expression darkened significantly. After all, it was a complete and utter defeat without the ability to fight back, and it was a rare shame in his life.

The restraint among ninjas is sometimes so unreasonable.

"Since he gave you advice and allowed you to come across the sea to kill me, he is sure that you can kill me."

Yiyong didn't answer, but his plain expression said everything.

Orochimaru smiled sinisterly.

"You are worthy of being the number one Uchiha in the ninja world. Even a kid has such an almost arrogant self-confidence. To be honest, your water and fire techniques that do not require seals have already reached the level of my teacher Hiruzen Sarutobi. I can only rely on myself." , I really don’t have the confidence to beat you..."

Orochimaru lowered his head and gently pressed Loquat Juzo's head with his right hand, as if he was remembering the days when he fought side by side with others.

But at this "warm" moment, a snake suddenly emerged from the cuff of his left hand, and it opened its mouth and spat out a human finger knuckle bone.

Giyuu didn't know what Orochimaru was going to do, but there was nothing wrong with giving the enemy a trick he couldn't use, so he immediately rushed towards Orochimaru's location.

But the next moment, he found that the ground under his feet suddenly became like a quagmire. Even if he concentrated chakra on the soles of his feet, he could not stand still. Instead, he was pushed back a certain distance by the flowing ground.

[No, he doesn’t have any seals! 】

"Is there something down there?!"

After Yiyong made a judgment, he raised his blade and struck down at his body.

"Eight Type·Takitsubo!"

The earth shattered, and rapids surged out from the ground, bringing out a big snake spitting yellow mud, which was torn into pieces by Yiyong in an instant.

And in this short interval, Orochimaru had completed the seal and pressed the knuckles that belonged to someone unknown into Loquat Juzo's body.

"Necromantic Technique: Reincarnation of the Dirty Earth!"

As his words fell, countless confetti-like gray matter poured out from the ground, covering Loquat Juuzang's body like a rapidly growing fungus, completely covering him in a few seconds.

Then, those debris changed, replacing Loquat Juuzang's clothes and his skin. A brand new human body suddenly appeared, and it was lifted up by an invisible force and suspended in mid-air. It looked weird. Scary.

"It's not a transformation technique, it's a brand new person."

Giyuu frowned and made an immediate judgment. Kyuubi also reached the same conclusion through sensing chakra.

It was a white-haired middle-aged man, wearing a rain ninja forehead protector, and a breathing mask unique to the Rain Country over his mouth and nose.

He was naked and had a cross-shaped incision on his side and abdomen that was very familiar to Giyuu. Using the transparent vision to look inward from the knife edge, it turned out to be the poisonous sac of a mountain pepper fish!

"This person is..."

Thinking of Orochimaru's actions just now and the familiar sense of sight, Giyuu made a bold guess. What Orochimaru said next confirmed his thoughts.

"Long time no see, Master Hanzo."

Following Orochimaru's greeting, the middle-aged man opened his eyes and burst out with a fierce aura unique to a war hero.

"You," Yiyong looked at the man and asked, "are you Sansho Hanzo?"

"It's me."

After Sanshouyu Hanzo responded, he looked at his palms, then turned back and faced Orochimaru: "I remember, you were at that time..."

Orochimaru ignored him and put a kunai with a spell hidden in it into Hanzo's head: "Sorry, let's talk about the past later. Now, I need you to stop that brat."

Orochimaru's body stuck to the ground and slid quickly to where the Fourth Mizukage Yagura fell. "After all, it seems that you alone are not enough!"

"Although the mission of the Akatsuki organization failed, in a place like the Land of Water, I can wake up the person who is best at dealing with Uchiha. This brat's body is in my pocket!"

Orochimaru's eyes bloomed with almost crazy enthusiasm. While Hanzo stopped Giyuu, he stuffed a bunch of silver hair into the vest of the Fourth Mizukage, and then launched the Impure World Reincarnation Technique again.

"This sacrifice is not only a shadow, but also has one-third of the chakra of a tailed beast! I wonder how much of his former strength can be restored?"

The Nine-Tails, who hid in Giyuu's collar to avoid Hanzo's sickle attack, felt a familiar chakra awakening, and the expression that had always looked down on everyone finally changed.

It warned loudly: "Stop him! Don't let Orochimaru summon that man!"

It was not worried about its own safety, but about Giyuu.

If its premonition was correct, the master of this growing chakra killed more Uchiha than the Uchiha who died in the three Ninja World Wars combined.

Giyuu was stunned, and recklessly chopped Hanzo away with a powerful sword. He looked back at Orochimaru and found that it was too late.

A middle-aged man with a Konoha forehead protector with sideburns had opened his eyes with the same zombie face as Giyuu. Giyuu was the first person he saw after waking up.

"Huh?"

After glancing at Giyuu's facial features and the blue blade in his hand, the first thing he said was: "Are you the descendant of me (my clan) and Uchiha?"

Giyuu showed his half-moon eyes and looked at the Nine-Tails speechlessly; "This person looks familiar, who is he? Why is he talking like that?"

[Why do I find this person a bit annoying even though I've seen him for the first time...]

"Please introduce him. This is the nemesis of Uchiha, the inventor of hundreds of ninjutsu. Because he is proficient in water escape, he is called 'the man who signed a contract with the sea'."

Orochimaru held the talisman in his hand, walked to the side of the silver-haired man, and said his name.

"The Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama."
