Chapter 243: Jiraiya and Naruto, Orochimaru and Sasuke

The Land of Grass.

A base deeply buried underground.

Orochimaru and Yakushi Kabuto had been hiding here conducting experiments.

Orochimaru received news that Uchiha Sasuke had learned the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Even though Orochimaru had reincarnated into a White Zetsu's body, which suited him very well and didn't require another body switch for the time being, he still felt greedy.

The Sharingan and the Flying Thunder God…

Orochimaru couldn't suppress his greed for Uchiha Sasuke!

Orochimaru had always known that Uchiha Sasuke was a genius. At this moment, he couldn't help but admit that he had underestimated Sasuke, not realizing he could learn the Flying Thunder God Technique. This talent was enough to make Orochimaru tempted!

Anyone who had truly interacted with the Fourth Hokage Minato knew how important the Flying Thunder God Technique was. Uchiha Sasuke learning this technique made Orochimaru urgently desire Sasuke's body!

Although…

Another reincarnation would need some time to cool down…

And this White Zetsu's body was very beneficial to Orochimaru…

But who would complain about acquiring more knowledge?

Orochimaru had always dreamed of mastering all techniques in the ninja world, and the Flying Thunder God Technique was one he desperately wanted to learn. In the future, he could completely use reincarnation to seize Uchiha Sasuke's body and acquire the knowledge of the Flying Thunder God Technique and the bloodline of the Sharingan…

"Kagura won't stop me from getting Uchiha Sasuke, right?"

Orochimaru directly voiced his need to Yakushi Kabuto.

"Of course not."

Kabuto shook his head and chuckled, "If Lord Orochimaru needs Uchiha Sasuke, we can simply lure him into defecting…"

"I'll send the Sound Four to bring him over."

Orochimaru nodded, forming his own plan: "It's perfect, I left a curse mark on Sasuke back then. He was my chosen backup…"

After speaking, Orochimaru recalled Sasuke learning the Flying Thunder God Technique and felt a bit troubled: "If that brat doesn't want to come, the Sound Four might not be a match for him and could cause trouble…"

"If it doesn't work…"

Orochimaru doubted the Sound Four's ability to bring back Uchiha Sasuke and decided to visit Konoha himself to personally bring back Sasuke: "I'll go myself."

The Sound Four's mouths were a bit foul.

Orochimaru didn't believe his subordinates could successfully lure Uchiha Sasuke to defect; only he could do it.

"That's perfect."

Kabuto immediately planned to capitalize on the situation, chuckling: "How about I inform Kagura while Lord Orochimaru is away? Kagura can lead the Root ninja to attack the Sound Village, providing an explanation to Konoha and preventing Kagura from having to hunt you while you infiltrate Konoha. After all, theoretically, Lord Orochimaru wouldn't escape Kagura's pursuit…"

"Agreed."

Orochimaru licked his lips with his tongue and smiled, "When Kagura leads the Root ninja to attack the Sound Village, I'll be in Konoha luring Uchiha Sasuke to defect. This way, it won't arouse Konoha's suspicion…"

This arrangement was indeed beneficial.

Kagura's public identity was Konoha's assistant to the Hokage.

If Akihara Kagura were in Konoha, it would inevitably cause trouble for Orochimaru. They were allies with ulterior motives, and Orochimaru was worried Kagura might turn against him.

"By the way, there's one more piece of information."

Kabuto looked at Orochimaru, smiling as he provided another piece of information: "Kagura's teacher Jiraiya is still in Konoha, so Lord Orochimaru should be a bit more careful…"

"A minor issue."

Orochimaru recalled the scene where Uzumaki Naruto summons Gamabunta to suppress Shukaku during the Konoha Crush Plan and had a playful expression: "I heard Uchiha Sasuke's companion Uzumaki Naruto is Jiraiya's new disciple. It seems that after the old man's death, the wheel of fate has begun to turn…"

"Is fate a wheel…"

Kabuto squinted his eyes, pondering: "A cycle of inescapable destiny?"

Root Base.

Akihara Kagura was very supportive of Yakushi Kabuto's plan.

Another high-level meeting was held in the Hokage's office, where the four previous Hokage began to head to the Land of Rain to track Uchiha Obito, while Akihara Kagura led a team to hunt down Orochimaru.

This time…

Konoha seemed determined to eliminate their enemies.

Since the dispatched members were all from Root, it seemed as if nothing had changed in Konoha. Many people were unaware of the major operation.

The ninjas in the village were unaware and continued to diligently execute their missions, occasionally visiting the training grounds to practice hard.

In Konoha Village.

The atmosphere of Team 7 became increasingly strange.

Uchiha Sasuke's temper grew more and more volatile.

Uzumaki Naruto and Haruno Sakura continued trying to correct his mindset, while Hatake Kakashi felt troubled by this revenge-obsessed student but was helpless. He could understand Uchiha Sasuke's madness.

Team 7…

Was gradually showing cracks. During the day, Uchiha Sasuke argued with Uzumaki Naruto, feeling this idiot didn't understand him; at night, he would stay alone at home, curled up on his bed like a wounded beast licking its wounds.

He was finally going to carry out his first mission for Root, but it required him to defect from Konoha. This period with Team 7 would be the only warmth he could cherish in the future.

But…

He had to leave Team 7.

Akihara Kagura had assigned him to monitor Orochimaru, allowing him to learn from Orochimaru to gain the strength needed to defeat Orochimaru and kill Uchiha Itachi in the future!

Furthermore, there was a group of Uchiha clansmen in Root. He couldn't stay here and waste time. He had a deep blood feud to avenge. Staying in Team 7 would only be a waste of time!

Outside Konoha Village.

Akihara Kagura had just left with the Root ninjas.

Orochimaru arrived in Konoha with the Sound Four.

"Go test Sasuke's strength!"

Orochimaru waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to infiltrate Konoha: "I left the Cursed Seal of Heaven on him. I want to see how much that kid has grown… If he's not strong enough, just bring him out."

"Yes!"

The Sound Four immediately infiltrated Konoha Village!

As experimental subjects blessed by Orochimaru with the Curse Marks, the Sound Four always believed in their formidable strength, capable of easily killing a Jonin when working together!

This time…

The Sound Four met their match.

Uchiha Sasuke had just argued with Uzumaki Naruto and was in a bad mood. When he saw the Sound Four, he assumed they were there to welcome him in defecting from Konoha, suppressing his anger: "Are you Orochimaru's people? Here to take me away from Konoha?"

"No, we need to test your strength first…"

Sakon Ukon sneered, twisting his wrist, feeling a bit defiant: "Let me see why you, this brat, were given the Cursed Seal of Heaven by Lord Orochimaru…"

"Let's beat him up first!"

Jirobo looked down at Uchiha Sasuke and chuckled: "Make him obedient…"

The remaining two of the Sound Four, Kidomaru and Tayuya, saw their companions' intent to bully Uchiha Sasuke and didn't stop them, even planning to help. Their task was to test Uchiha Sasuke's strength.

"Bastards!"

Uchiha Sasuke, at his most displeased moment, saw these bizarre-looking ninjas and couldn't suppress his anger any longer!

Uchiha Sasuke took out a kunai with a fan-shaped Flying Thunder God mark engraved on it and threw it towards Sakon Ukon!

"Is this all you've got?"

Sakon Ukon disdainfully dodged the kunai!

However…

The next moment!

Sakon Ukon's expression changed!

As Sakon Ukon dodged the kunai, Uchiha Sasuke disappeared from their sight, alarming the rest of the Sound Four!

"Watch out!"

The warning came too late!

Uchiha Sasuke reappeared beside Sakon Ukon, grabbing the kunai marked with the Flying Thunder God symbol and pressing it against Sakon Ukon's throat!

This was a unique technique taught by two Hokage who were skilled in the Flying Thunder God Technique!

Compared to other users of the Flying Thunder God Technique…

Uchiha Sasuke might be the most suited for it!

With the Sharingan's perfect dynamic vision, Sasuke could flawlessly coordinate his vision and movements even after teleporting!

"Are you kidding…"

Kidomaru, seeing Sakon Ukon subdued, realized the difficulty of this mission: "Couldn't track this guy's movements at all…"

"I haven't lost yet!"

Sakon Ukon squinted his eyes.

He had two heads and two minds.

Strictly speaking, Sakon Ukon were two people, one head named Sakon and the dormant head named Ukon, forming a twin entity!

In battle, Sakon Ukon's two heads would fully awaken, cooperating in combat and even unleashing more extraordinary powers!

"Uchiha Sasuke…"

"Seems like I underestimated you…"

Sakon twisted his arm, disregarding the kunai at his throat, and Ukon's head woke up!

"Let's all attack…"

Jirobo felt the situation was more complicated and feared their mission might fail: "Feels like his teleportation is no simple matter…"

Next moment!

The Sound Four launched a combined assault!

However, Uchiha Sasuke's movements were too fast for them to track. Using only a kunai and his Chidori technique, he defeated the Sound Four!

If taken seriously…

Uchiha Sasuke's combat ability now surpassed that of a twelve-year-old Hatake Kakashi. He could perfectly combine Chidori with the Flying Thunder God Technique!

"Is this all Orochimaru's men can do?"

Uchiha Sasuke looked at the defeated Sound Four, each with a severe wound, staring in terror at him!

"Because they are the weakest batch…"

A long snake slithered up a tree, opening its mouth to reveal Orochimaru.

"Orochimaru!"

Uchiha Sasuke's pupils contracted instantly.

The tension was quickly suppressed as Sasuke had been preparing to defect. He didn't expect Orochimaru himself to come to lure him away!

"Sasuke, you've become more exceptional…"

Orochimaru had been watching everything. Seeing Uchiha Sasuke using the Flying Thunder God Technique to defeat the Sound Four, his greed and desire were almost uncontrollable: "It's not that they are weak, but you've become stronger…"

Indeed, it was the Flying Thunder God Technique!

Even if Uchiha Sasuke used Chidori, it wouldn't pose much threat to the Sound Four. However, once Sasuke combined it with the Flying Thunder God Technique, it elevated his combat power significantly, making him a challenge even for Orochimaru!

"Sasuke."

Orochimaru raised a finger, smiling as he asked, "Now that you've grown wings capable of flying, don't you think it's time to explore a broader world?"

"What can you teach me?"

Uchiha Sasuke frowned, showing disdain for Orochimaru.

If it wasn't for completing Akihara Kagura's mission and using Orochimaru to hone his strength, Sasuke wouldn't want to associate with Orochimaru!

"Everything."

Orochimaru grinned.

"Then show me…"

Uchiha Sasuke stared intently at Orochimaru, his Chidori crackling again. After defeating the Sound Four, he wanted to test his strength against Orochimaru!

If he could defeat Orochimaru now…

He might take the opportunity of defecting from Konoha to seek revenge on Uchiha Itachi!

"How na?ve…"

Orochimaru smiled, appreciating Sasuke's desire to fight: "The Flying Thunder God Technique may change your fighting style, but it doesn't alter the substantial power gap…"

Evening.

Ichiraku Ramen Shop.

Uzumaki Naruto was complaining to Jiraiya about his friend Uchiha Sasuke's increasingly strange behavior, their arguments becoming more intense.

"..."

Jiraiya listened to his disciple, nodding with a smile. He had experienced this phase himself, quarreling with his teammates daily…

In the future…

These would be their most cherished memories.

"Naruto! Naruto!"

As they ate, Haruno Sakura rushed over, her body showing some injuries, and she desperately cried for help!

"Naruto, Orochimaru took Sasuke out of the village…"

"Sasuke!"

Uzumaki Naruto's chopsticks halted instantly!

"Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya's chopsticks stabbed into the /Bleam
