Chapter 243 Orochimaru Appears
"Another Heavenly Scroll."
Naruto glanced at the scroll in Sasuke's hand and gave him a disgusted look.
"As expected, Sasuke, your luck is just terrible. I'll take your turn next time!"
"Don't worry, today is only the first day of the exam, there are still four days to go."
Sai smiled and offered a word of comfort.
Although he was quite capable, he was always being asked to do everything by his two teammates, which made him feel like he was just coasting along and winning.
"Whoever is the fastest gets it."
Sasuke just pursed his lips; he couldn't really argue with the idea of luck.
He had already dealt with several teams, but they all had the same Heavenly Scroll as them.
扑!
Just then, a small bird with an ink-wash style suddenly landed on Sai's shoulder.
"We've found another team."
Sai said with a smile.
"where?"
Naruto couldn't wait any longer.
"It's over there."
Sai raised his hand and pointed in one direction.
Naruto rushed out.
"This guy..."
Sasuke was speechless.
"Let's follow them first, otherwise it won't be good if Naruto gets into danger."
"Ah."
Sai and Sasuke followed closely behind.
The sound came even before they got close.
"Which village's ninja are you from?"
"Leaf Whirlwind!"
"what!"
Then everything quieted down.
"Sasuke, Sai, look, it's the Earth Scroll!"
Naruto reappeared, his face beaming with obvious smugness.
"..."
Sasuke was speechless.
"It seems we can finish the second exam early."
Sai was also quite surprised; he felt that Naruto's luck had always been very good.
Sasuke spent a whole day trying to find it but couldn't, while Naruto solved it in one go.
"Ha ha!"
Naruto grinned and said, "Maybe our class will be the first to pass the exam!"
Sasuke's eyes lit up slightly upon hearing this.
In that case, they might be able to outpace Bai Yunqingye's class.
He was first in the second exam, and also the first overall.
Just then, he suddenly felt a chilling aura.
The surrounding air suddenly became still, and the chirping of insects and birds disappeared.
"careful!"
Sasuke immediately gripped the longsword behind him and reminded Naruto and Sai.
This sword was forged for him by Uchiha Mikoto using chakra metal.
The three of them already have a very good working relationship.
As Sasuke gripped his sword, Naruto and Sai also became alert.
"Good observation skills."
A female ninja with long, straight black hair emerged from behind a large tree, licking her lips as she spoke, "Sasuke, we've finally met."
She looks somewhat like a lovesick woman.
It was Orochimaru who couldn't wait to come over and give Sasuke a hickey.
Before Sasuke could even ask a question...
The next second, an endless killing intent erupted from Orochimaru's body.
Faced with the murderous aura coming from the front, the three of them froze on the spot, their faces filled with horror.
For a moment, Sasuke, Naruto, and Sai were all frozen in place.
At the same time, images of himself being killed by the other party appeared in his mind.
This is not normal.
This murderous aura...
Some are abnormally strong.
However, the three of them quickly recovered.
They are no longer clueless newbies.
Sasuke's three-tomoe Sharingan lit up, and he drew the longsword from behind him. Naruto assumed the starting stance for taijutsu, and a lion in ink-wash style appeared behind Sai.
"I didn't expect you to already have three tomoe, Sasuke. I'm growing to like you more and more!"
Orochimaru licked his lips again.
The other person's sickly gaze made Sasuke feel uneasy.
It made him want to chop the other person up.
But he hadn't had a chance to draw his sword yet.
A foul stench wafted from his side.
Sasuke quickly turned his head and saw a giant python that was thicker than the three of them tied together.
It was opening its blood-red maw towards them, lunging to bite, and the stench was coming from its mouth.
"Konoha Whirlwind!"
Naruto's body reacted instinctively, spinning and kicking at the python's jaw.
The terrifying force caused the giant python's head to rise high, and two ink-wash birds pierced straight into the python's eyes.
It blocked the python's view.
Immediately afterwards, a thunderous sound rang out.
Sasuke brandished his longsword, imbued with lightning chakra.
Kakashi originally intended to teach Sasuke the Hatake clan's swordsmanship, but after discovering that Sasuke seemed to be more skilled in Lightning Release, he modified the technique.
Sasuke leaped high into the air and delivered a powerful jumping slash.
In an instant, blood spurted and lightning flashed everywhere.
The giant python's head was severed off.
But with a "bang," it turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared, leaving only a pool of blood.
"A summoned beast?!"
Sasuke looked at Orochimaru again, his heart heavy, but his fighting spirit also ignited.
This guy, just standing there, exudes terrifying strength.
Sai looked at the other person and also devoted some of his attention to thinking. He thought of some information he had seen in Root before, and his expression became more and more serious.
"Is this one of your methods? But getting our scrolls won't be so easy."
Naruto easily defeated the giant snake, and his expression showed a hint of smugness.
"Naruto, Sasuke, watch out! This guy isn't here for the Chunin Exams!"
Sai suddenly spoke up to remind him.
"Huh?"
Not only Naruto, but even Sasuke was somewhat surprised.
If he's not here to participate in the Chunin Exams, then what is he here for?
Sai replied with a serious expression, "He should be Orochimaru, a rogue ninja from Konoha, and one of the former Legendary Sannin."
"what?"
Sasuke and Naruto were even more shocked.
Their original fighting spirit was replaced by other emotions.
"Oh?"
Orochimaru was somewhat surprised, "You actually recognized me?"
He looked at Sai more closely, and then it dawned on him.
"You must have been a Root ninja before, right?"
Sai did not answer, already looking as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Are those three genin fighting Orochimaru?
real or fake?
If they are not careful, they could very well die here.
"Now is the time to burn with youthful energy!"
Naruto suddenly let out a loud roar, and his chakra suddenly surged wildly.
He charged toward Orochimaru.
"Fifth Gate of Du - Open!"
Start with zero frames.
……
"How much do you get paid per mission? Why are you working so hard?"
Shirokumo Aoba looked at the ninja lying in front of him, his body wrapped in bandages and wearing a Sound Village headband.
He did have some impression of this guy; he was a tool Orochimaru sent to test Sasuke.
In the end, it seems he provoked Gaara and was killed on the spot.
Still somewhat dazed, Tos simply stared wide-eyed at Baiyun Qingye, his black pupil fixed on her.
They were originally ordered by Orochimaru to come and test the Hokage's abilities.
Before he could even get close to the person, he was knocked down with a single punch.
Baiyun Qingye then looked at the man and woman beside her.
"Sky-Slicing Wave!"
When Sak saw Bai Yunqingye suddenly looking at him, he thought the other party was going to attack them, so he subconsciously raised his hand to attack, intending to strike first.
