Chapter 207: Monkey, it seems like what they say is true... Two Hokages Appears!
The handling method of Akihara Kagura was quite effective.
Except for Shimura Danzo himself, no one else present had any objections.
"Do you want to revive monkey?"
Shimura Danzo glared furiously, ignoring his own injuries, and remembered the forbidden jutsu controlled by Orochimaru: "You even want to use me as a sacrifice for monkey's revival!"
Shimura Danzo could not accept this in his heart!
Was this bastard trying to squeeze out all his value while killing him!
"Just consider it a sacrifice for Konoha!"
Akihara Kagura glanced at Shimura Danzo, seemingly finding the old man's shock a bit amusing: "It would be a waste to keep the Third Hokage's soul in the underworld..."
Akihara Kagura chuckled lightly, following Shimura Danzo's thoughts and responding: "Even in death, the Third Hokage's power can still protect Konoha. Since all this is for Konoha, a little sacrifice from you, Danzo, shouldn't matter, right?"
"Anyway...""Do you always like to say that?"
Akihara Kagura crouched beside Shimura Danzo, smiling as he continued: "As the second leader of the Root, acting on your will is natural. For Konoha, the Root never cared about sacrificing others, and now it's the turn of the previous leader of the Root to make a sacrifice..."
"You!"
Shimura Danzo gritted his teeth in anger.
This was not a sacrifice for Konoha; this bastard wanted to control Sarutobi Hiruzen and use the power of the Hokage!
However...
What was the situation with monkey now?
This bastard Akihara Kagura had already prepared to use the Edo Tensei to revive monkey, so, was monkey still alive at this time?
Of course.
At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was still alive.
In Konoha.
The venue of the third stage of the Chunin Exam.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood on the high platform, having just finished the speech marking the end of the joint Chunin Exam, inviting the Kazekage, Rasa, to speak a few words as well.
"Lord Kazekage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen invited Rasa to stand beside him, smiling as he spoke: "Say a few words to inspire these kids, will you?"
"Okay."
The Fourth Kazekage Rasa nodded, stepped beside Sarutobi Hiruzen, a mocking smile on his lips, his voice suddenly turning cold: "The preliminaries are over, now I declare, the plan for Konoha's downfall, officially begins!"
"Action starts!"
"Action starts!"
One by one, the Sand Village ninjas immediately began to move, causing a sudden riot in the exam venue, each targeting their pre-determined opponents!
In addition, there were arrangements in the spectator stands, several Sound Village ninjas took the opportunity to cast illusions among the crowd, many of whom fell into illusions!
The Grass Village's Kaguya clan immediately tore off their coverings and attacked several powerful Konoha jonin!
Clearly.
These people were all well-prepared!
Hatake Kakashi watched in surprise as a group of Kaguya clan ninjas rushed towards him, blocking a bone spike with his kunai, his eye twitching.
"How come there's another wave..."
"Kakashi!"
Might Guy kicked an enemy away, landing beside Hatake Kakashi: "What should we do now?"
"Let's deal with them first!"
Hatake Kakashi could only wave his kunai and charge forward, whispering: "We better notify Akihara Kagura immediately about what's happening here, tell him to come and support..."
"What about the Hokage?"
"Let's deal with these people first..."
Hatake Kakashi looked towards the crazed faces of the Kaguya clan charging at them and sighed: "This situation is even bigger than the riot that just happened..."
As Hatake Kakashi and Might Guy were protecting the spectators, four figures leapt up from the stands, rushing towards the direction of the high platform!
On the high platform.
The four figures landed around the high platform, revealing their true faces.
These people were the Sound Four, raised by Orochimaru, all with unusual appearances, their palms together forming seals, collectively erecting a purple barrier, enclosing Sarutobi Hiruzen and the Fourth Kazekage Rasa inside!
"Ninjutsu: Four Violet Flames Formation!"
The strength of these four was obviously not sufficient, the Four Violet Flames Formation far from matching the Four Red Yang Formation released by Akihara Kagura, yet it was still not something ordinary people could handle.
However...
This Four Violet Flames Formation also protected the casters.
"Lord Kazekage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, wondering if this Kazekage was out of his mind: "What are you doing?"
What's going on with the Kazekage from the Sand Village?
Didn't this guy see the fate of the Mist Village ninjas just now?
Even if Akihara Kagura wasn't at this exam venue, once he learned of this, he could quickly return, what was the point of the Sand Village starting a riot against Konoha at this time?
Even if Akihara Kagura couldn't arrive in time, the group of Konoha ninjas present was not something the Sand Village ninjas could handle, right?
Of course.
The key point was.
What was the Fourth Kazekage Rasa doing, trapping himself and him in the Four Violet Flames Formation, wanting another duel with him?
"Just following the plan."
The Fourth Kazekage Rasa pulled out a kunai, smiling as he spoke: "Now no one should interrupt our battle..."
"Really troublesome..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen really felt a headache coming on, as his physical strength and chakra had been greatly depleted in his fight with Shimura Danzo.
"That's because..."
"The trouble is all your doing..."
The Fourth Kazekage Rasa slowly removed his hat and peeled off the face mask he was wearing, revealing a cold, sinister face.
It was Orochimaru.
Orochimaru was actually right.
Whether it was himself or Shimura Danzo, these troubles were created by Sarutobi Hiruzen himself, yet he hadn't resolved them.
Orochimaru raised his kunai, cutting his own palm, chuckling: "I also wanted to ask... I didn't expect you didn't recognize me either, teacher."
"..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen watched Orochimaru's face, his voice becoming a bit hoarse and sinister: "Ever since Danzo came out, I've been thinking about where you might be hiding, never expected you'd return to Konoha in this manner like Danzo..."
This was indeed unexpected.
Looking back, however, it seemed somewhat logical.
Shimura Danzo posing as a Genji from the Mist Village, Orochimaru posing as the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, using these identities to infiltrate Konoha during the Chunin Exams, also getting close to him, the Hokage.
"Yeah..."
Orochimaru licked his lips with his tongue, lightly laughing: "Other than this way, how else could I get close to you? It wouldn't be easy to kill you after all, considering you're surrounded by Anbu and the most troublesome Akihara Kagura..."
"No choice."
"I can only use this method, letting Danzo first attract your attention, letting those fools from the Mist attract your Anbu, pulling the guard team and Anbu away from your side..."
"This time..."
"The strongest in the village, Akihara Kagura, to protect you, will surely appear by your side the fastest, Danzo in the battle will surrender voluntarily to be captured by you..."
"But you are always hypocritically weak, whether it's to get information about me from Danzo, or for the so-called bonds, you couldn't possibly kill Danzo..."
"However, this is a Chunin Exam with many villages present, you definitely don't want the situation to expand further, being laughed at by the Kazekage next to you, you'd want to end the chaos caused by Danzo and the Mist ninjas quickly, you must imprison Danzo first, to calm the unrest..."
"But your Anbu and guard team were called away, with no one by your side, Akihara Kagura being the closest and naturally the best candidate to escort Danzo, as he happens to be the leader of the Root, perfectly suited to guard Danzo..."
Orochimaru looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, a somewhat triumphant smile on his face: "Everything is within my plan, now that Akihara Kagura has left here, Danzo is confident that he can make Kagura stand on his side and not appear, I just need to kill you here..."
"..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's mood suddenly became heavy.
Because everything Orochimaru said matched his thoughts, even their every move was within Orochimaru's calculations, Orochimaru, this rogue ninja student, turned out to be even more scheming!
The most troublesome part was!
He gave Danzo and Akihara Kagura the chance to contact!
All along, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been afraid of Akihara Kagura contacting Shimura Danzo again, becoming a tool in Danzo's hands, but he hadn't calculated this layer!
In order to quickly calm the situation, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no choice but to choose Akihara Kagura to escort Shimura Danzo, allowing Shimura Danzo to take this opportunity to lure Akihara Kagura...
This was really troublesome…
Their real plan turned out to be to use the past relationship between Shimura Danzo and Akihara Kagura, letting Shimura Danzo and Akihara Kagura meet privately, turning the strongest combat power of Konoha!
Perhaps... at this moment...
Shimura Danzo was deceiving Akihara Kagura, turning Akihara Kagura into his tool, once this happened, that would be the real danger to Konoha!
Unless using some life-for-life forbidden jutsu, no one could handle the crisis Akihara Kagura faced, those forbidden jutsus only he knew how to use!
"You guys really are ambitious..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen clasped his hands together, his eyes coldly staring at Orochimaru: "However, you forgot, this will also be my opportunity to make up for past mistakes, this time, I will definitely kill you first..."
"This may not be so..."
Orochimaru chuckled, suddenly opening his mouth wide, a long snake flew out from his mouth, directly biting towards Sarutobi Hiruzen's neck!
The snake's speed was extremely fast, instantly biting Sarutobi Hiruzen's neck, however, in just a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen's body turned into a mound of earth!
"Earth Replacement?"
Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly, surveying the surroundings, trying to find out where his teacher was hiding, this Four Violet Flames Formation wasn't big, there really wasn't much place to hide...
"Earth Release: Earth Flow River!"
A muddy river suddenly swept through!
Orochimaru's body was involuntarily swept away by the mudslide!
"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood beside the muddy river, leveraging it to perform the Earth Dragon Bullet technique, a dark brown mud dragon head floated beside him, continuously firing mud bullets at Orochimaru, the firing speed of the Earth Dragon Bullet technique was extremely fast!
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen again formed seals with his hands, a fire instantly enveloped the mud bullets that were shot out, hitting Orochimaru's body with a burst of flames!
This was Sarutobi Hiruzen's Combined Nature Transformation, Earth Dragon Flame Flow!
By using an extremely fast casting method and combining different elemental techniques, he combined two different elemental techniques together, using their strengths to compensate for the weaknesses of the two different elemental techniques.
After the Earth Dragon Flame Flow ended, Orochimaru's body slowly emerged from the ground, mocking as he smiled: "Lucky it was your Combined Nature Transformation! If it was Kagura's Combined Nature Transformation, perhaps I would have been thinking about running for my life by now..."
"Teacher, you've already been surpassed..."
Orochimaru spread his palms, a disdainful smile on his lips: "You might as well stop playing these childish tricks, it's time to bring out some real techniques, lest your teacher also thinks I'm unlearned..."
"I'm really being underestimated..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed somewhat helplessly sighed, taking off his Hokage god robe and Hokage hat, revealing a lean battle dress.
Ever since he learned of Orochimaru's news, Sarutobi Hiruzen had been preparing for battle, because he guessed that Orochimaru would definitely come to trouble him, even Sarutobi Hiruzen had anticipated that Akihara Kagura might be pulled away from here or be entangled by someone.
Today...
Might be the day of his sacrifice.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was very clear about all this.
"Ninjutsu: Summoning Jutsu!"
Orochimaru quickly brought his fingers together, rapidly forming a Summoning seal, arrogantly looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Teacher, today is your day of death!"
Accompanying the raising of Orochimaru's palm, two coffins appeared before him, he didn't need a third coffin to appear, because two people were enough!
Snap!
Two coffin lids slammed down!
The figures of the First Hokage Senju Hashirama and the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama slowly walked out of the coffins, slowly standing before Orochimaru.
"..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils involuntarily dilated.
Even though he had long known that Orochimaru had reanimated the two former Hokages through the Edo Tensei, seeing them with his own eyes still made his heart somewhat sad and sorrowful.
"Monkey."
Senju Tobirama looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, speaking first: "It seems everything they said is true, you've gotten so old, yet you're still continuing as the Hokage..."
"Yes..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly nodded.
"I see..."
Tobirama also slowly nodded, then quickly charged toward Sarutobi Hiruzen: "I understand, then let us settle things here by taking you /Bleam
