Chapter 93 Sasuke: Naruto, don't die!
"I'm sorry, the child seems to be too tired. He cried himself to sleep in my arms!"
"And if I wanted to let her go..."
Akali made a releasing motion.
Then Karin's serene expression immediately turned somewhat panicked!
Her eyeballs twitched beneath her eyelids, as if she were about to wake up!
Akali quickly hugged Karin tightly.
Seeing this, Hinata, whose expression had been somewhat unfriendly, could no longer say anything; Karin was indeed pitiful and miserable.
She glanced at Akali's soaked clothes and Karin's disheveled appearance, then sniffed the air, where she could faintly smell a strange odor that even Akali seemed to have picked up.
Hinata glared at Akali with disdain, while Akali responded with an embarrassed chuckle.
Hinata had no choice but to activate her Byakugan and search her surroundings.
Soon, the place she wanted appeared in Byakugan's field of vision!
"There's a stream a little further down that way, let's go there and tidy up!"
After successfully finding the scroll from the Grass Ninja with Karin in tow, Team 8 headed towards the stream.
In the stream, Akali poured a bottle of red potion down Karin's throat, then removed her old clothes and began to clean her wounded body with her hands.
Seeing Hinata's still somewhat unhappy expression, Akali smiled and then spoke first:
"Let's get down to business, Hinata. I need the Hyuga clan to do me a favor!"
"What kind of help?" Hinata became serious when she heard it was something important.
"Forge her a death certificate, then place her in Hyuga to recuperate!"
"Of course, I know you want to ask me why I'm being so nice to this little girl I've never met before?"
Akali reached into the water and scooped up Karin's smooth red hair.
"Looking at that red hair, Hinata, doesn't it remind you of anything?"
"In this ninja world, who is Shanks?"
“This…” Akali’s words prompted Hinata to think.
Hinata, who was originally a good girl, did not slack off in class.
So she quickly came up with an idea!
Looking at Karin and sensing the vibrant life force within her, Hinata's expression suddenly changed: "She... could she be Uzumaki..."
"That's right, this is the last surviving member of the Uzumaki clan!"
"So, Hinata, you understand her value now, don't you..."
"I see..." Hinata's expression softened.
She came over and helped Akali clean up Shrin.
After collecting all the Heaven and Earth Scrolls, Team 8 had already completed nearly half of the Chunin Exams.
However, the three students in Class 8 were unaware of this.
In the forest not far from them, the three members of Class 7 are facing the strongest enemy of their lives!
In the pitch-black forest, a swarm of snakes, like a black tide, surged toward them!
"Tsk!"
Sasuke glanced at Sakura, who was pale and limp from fear caused by the snakes, clicked his tongue in annoyance, and then looked at Naruto: "Naruto!"
“I understand!” Naruto nodded seriously.
Then, the two, who were of one mind, began to form hand seals at the same time!
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Sasuke spat out a fireball.
"Wind Release: Gale Palm!"
Naruto quickly appeared behind the fireball and clapped his hands together.
"Fusion Ninjutsu: Great Fire Windfall Technique!"
A strong gust of wind erupted from Naruto's palm, like an invisible racket, and struck the Fireball Jutsu heavily.
"Bam—"
The slow-moving fireball suddenly accelerated after this, and the fireball, which was only two or three meters in diameter, began to devour oxygen in the air as it moved forward rapidly, growing larger against the wind!
Finally, a huge fireball with a diameter of five or six meters fell into the snake horde, and waves of flames spread from the point where the fireball fell!
"Squeak, squeak, crackle, crackle!"
One after another, the venomous snakes were rapidly dried out by the flames, exploding like firewood.
The snakes in front of Class 7 were wiped out on the spot!
"It works!" Sasuke and Naruto were invigorated.
The two exchanged a glance: "Continue!"
Then, several more powerful fireballs were followed by Gale Palm.
The aroma of roasted snake meat filled the air, and even Naruto, the glutton, swallowed several times.
However, neither Naruto, nor Sakura who had just recovered from her fear, nor Sasuke, who was the main force in this battle, showed any sign of relief!
The snake tide that they had just managed to annihilate, which had cost them a considerable amount of chakra, was merely something that person had casually summoned from within the Forest of Death!
"Slap, slap, slap, slap..."
Applause erupted as Orochimaru, who had summoned the swarm of snakes, clapped his hands and walked out.
Orochimaru glanced at Sasuke and Naruto with a strange look in his eyes: "I originally thought you were just an avenger, Sasuke-kun."
"But now it seems that you, this Avenger, have bonds that you can entrust yourself to. Heh, bonds, what a beautiful word..."
Unfortunately, in many situations, bonds are not only an aid, but also chains that hold you back!
"Sasuke-kun, you're not a pure avenger at all!"
"Pure?" Sasuke frowned upon hearing Orochimaru's words, his gaze turning strange.
What is this all about? He has a feeling that someone has told him this before.
Sasuke's scalp was a little itchy, as if his brain was starting to grow.
But Orochimaru didn't give him a chance to think further.
"Forget it, you wouldn't understand any of this now, Sasuke."
"Since that's the case, then let me tell you just how much your so-called 'bonds' have dragged you down!"
Orochimaru slammed his hand on the ground: "Summoning, Orochimaru!"
"Boom!"
The ground beneath Naruto and Sasuke's feet began to shake.
The next second, a giant python burst out of the ground and swallowed Naruto whole before he could react, then ran wildly toward the nearby woods!
"Naruto!" Sasuke's eyes widened in fury, his bloodshot Sharingan instantly activating as he rushed forward to rescue him!
But before Sasuke could catch up with the giant snake, a panicked scream rang out!
Sasuke turned around and saw that Orochimaru had somehow appeared behind Sakura, grabbing her long pink hair with one hand and holding a kunai in the other, which he placed on Sakura's soft neck!
With Orochimaru's kunai held to her neck, Sakura's eyes were filled with tears, and she was on the verge of crying.
"Choose, Sasuke-kun. Now that both of your companions are in danger, will you go to rescue that blond kid, or this pitiful girl in my hands?" Orochimaru asked in a hoarse voice.
However, he really asked the wrong person this question.
Sasuke glanced at Sakura, then at Naruto who was being carried away by the giant snake.
Then, without hesitation, he chased after Naruto!
It's as if every second he hesitates is a disrespect to the bond!
That's right, it's about bonds, and it's definitely not because Naruto still owes him hundreds of thousands!
Orochimaru and Sakura, however, did not know this!
Watching Sasuke's resolute departing figure.
Sakura: ……
Orochimaru: ...
