Chapter 611: A Kind Donation...
Sakura was horrified by what she was seeing and feeling. Even though she had witnessed Kakashi and Zabuza's battle, they had primarily relied on Water jutsus and had used the stronger jutsus much later in the battle.
However, Fujin and Orochimaru had started with deadly supercharged attacks. Despite being far away, she could still feel the heat of the flames and was afraid that she, Sasuke and Naruto would be cut up just like the massive trees.
Luckily, she was soon sent flying long enough that she couldn't see anything. However, the terror in her mind would take a long time to reduce. She crashed nearly a couple of kilometers away from where Fujin and Orochimaru had entered into a fight! Due to the winds, none of the four were harmed.
In addition, Fujin had thrown them in a spot where there weren't any other squads nearby while still keeping them close to Shikamaru's and Neji's squads, allowing them an opportunity to rest and ensuring that those two squads would be able to reinforce them later on so that the events wouldn't be too different from the original story.
Needless to say, he would send a Shadow Clone later to ensure that none of them died due to his interference.
As soon as she landed, Sakura thought, 'Naruto wasn't kidding. He can really throw someone very far enough! If he had thrown me towards the sky instead of parallel to the ground, we might have reached the Academy!
Still, what is this jutsu? I couldn't resist those strange winds at all. However, those strange winds kept us safe as well and prevented any injury to us when we landed. How can such a magical jutsu exist? I don't think even Kakashi sensei knows anything like this...'
Sakura's surprise wasn't unfounded. The jutsu used concepts of Wind Domain and Assassin's Rush jutsu. Since Fujin was the creator of the Wind Domain, no one else could use this method yet. Suddenly, Sasuke groaned due to the pain.
Sakura snapped out of her thoughts hearing Sasuke's groan. Due to the pain from the curse seal, he passed out. A determined expression appeared on Sakura's face as she decided to protect her teammates by herself! She muttered, 'It's all up to me now! This time, I'll protect them and keep them safe!'
In the tower, Renjiro was still playing Shogi with 'Fujin' while Hoka was watching their game. Suddenly, the three of them sensed something and looked outside the window. Each of them got up and walked onto the balcony. They saw a large amount of smoke rising from the forest a few kilometers away!"What horrible chakra! I am not even a sensor and I can still feel the clash of the jutsus all the way over here!" Hoka took a deep breath and exclaimed. He activated his Byakugan but the fight was happening too far for him to see anything other than the smoke and the fire.
Renjiro frowned and said, "This feeling… It almost feels like Orochimaru!"
Renjiro had worked with Orochimaru and even served under his command during the previous wars. So, he was quick to connect it to him. However, his expression became grim as he knew just how terrible Orochimaru was! He was someone Renjiro never wanted to fight!
He gazed at Fujin and said, "You have gotten quite strong. I didn't even sense that I had been playing with a Shadow Clone all this time… Was your main body patrolling the forests all along?"
Fujin's clone replied, "Yes. These dense forests are a good place to set up traps and an ambush without alerting anyone. I wanted to ensure that there were none set up earlier. Anyway, now's not the time to be impressed. Hokage's intuition was accurate, but who would have thought that such a horrible ninja would interfere…"
Renjiro nodded and said, "It's a good thing that he appointed you as the proctor and that you called us here. Otherwise, too many would have died before any reinforcements came. With the three of us, we might be able to hold him back..."
"Captain! Intense chakras have been detected towards the Southwest! A massive fire has broken out. We suspect that ninjas other than the Genins have entered the training ground and have entered into a conflict!"
Since he had felt something was off, Hiruzen had deployed a few Anbu squads in the Forest of Death. The squad deployed in the tower was led by none other than one of Fujin's former subordinates, Yamanaka Fumito. He quickly informed Fujin when he sensed something off.
Fujin's clone nodded and instructed, "I can see that. Don't worry, one of them is my main body."
Fumito was surprised. He exclaimed, "So you already have it under control? That's good."
To his surprise, Fujin's clone shook his head and said, "Nothing is good right now. Avoid that area and rush to the Hokage Building. Ask Lord Hokage to make his way to this Training Ground immediately."
Fumito was surprised by Fujin's instruction. He didn't expect that Fujin would get the Hokage involved. To his shock, Fujin continued, "Tell him that Orochimaru, one of the three Sannins, has interfered in the exam and attacked some Genins."
Behind his mask, terror appeared on Fumito's face. Unlike Naruto's generation, he clearly knew how strong Orochimaru was. He muttered, "Why is Orochimaru here?"
"Why are you still here? Leave immediately!" Fujin's clone said sensing that he hadn't moved. Fumito didn't tarry any longer and disappeared.
Fujin's clone continued, "It seems like he was after Kakashi's squad for some reason. Anyway, you two don't need to get involved for the time being. I can handle Orochimaru."
"Nonsense! That's one of the Legendary Sannins! And undoubtedly the most dangerous one! I won't even be able to escape against him. Don't underestimate him." Renjiro immediately scolded Fujin.
However, Fujin's clone just shook his head and said, "We still don't know what his goal is. Nor do we know whether he has any help. In case he plans to attack this tower, I'll need you two to help as I can't fight much.
As for underestimating him, don't worry. I'll never do that. That said, he won't be able to defeat my main body easily. Even if he does, I can escape easily. So, I'm not in any danger."
Renjiro and Hoka were surprised by his confidence. Both immediately recalled how good Fujin was at escaping and their worries eased slightly.
On the other side of the Forest of Death, Anko had just entered to find Orochimaru when she suddenly felt the clash of two strong jutsus and noticed the smoke. She immediately jumped to the top of a tree.
Her eyes widened as she observed, 'That's definitely Orochimaru's chakra! However, who is forcing him to go to this extent?'
Immediately, a face appeared in her mind. She immediately rushed towards the location while thinking, 'I hope that brat isn't fighting him! Orochimaru is in a whole different league! It'll be a shame if he were to die here!'
At the very moment that Fujin sent Sakura flying, Fujin attacked Orochimaru with a supercharged Infinite Breakthrough jutsu. Orochimaru responded by using a supercharged Flame Dragon Bullet jutsu to take advantage of the winds. However, his flames were blown back by the supercharged Infinite Breakthrough jutsu.
Of course, that wasn't enough to harm him. In fact, Orochimaru wasn't even surprised and had expected as much. The attack was just to test Fujin's ability. His laughter could be heard, "Hahaha, not bad at all! No wonder Juzo died at your hands!"
As he laughed, he pulled out the sword of Kusanagi from his mouth and swung it to his left! It clashed with Fujin's sword. Wind chakra flowed through both blades. Fujin realized, 'What a good sword. Even though my chakra is sharper, his blade is much better than mine! I wonder if he'd make a kind donation like his former Akatsuki partner…'
Unfortunately, Orochimaru didn't seem as kind-hearted as Sasori. That said, Fujin had just met him. So he couldn't be entirely sure. Who could say if Orochimaru would have a change of heart later and give Fujin the greatest gift in this world? Greater than even what Hiruzen did for him!
