The terrifying purple crescent-shaped sword energy pierced through the entire roof, attracting the attention of Orochimaru and his companion, who were still frozen in shock.
"Ancient trees..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's chest was pierced by Orochimaru's longsword, and the memory of his shadow clone being killed returned to his main body.
"Orochimaru, you've summoned a demon! You'll regret this later!!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi addressed the speechless Orochimaru before him, offering a reminder.
"You old bastard, stop right there! What are you doing?!"
Orochimaru watched as Hiruzen Sarutobi continued to use the Reaper Death Seal jutsu even though he didn't have the strength to pull his soul away, and his pupils instantly contracted.
He understood; this old man intended to seal his hands.
This will prevent him from ever using ninjutsu again!
"Orochimaru, I told you, I'll make you regret this. I'm going to take all the techniques you've learned."
"Pfft!!"
With a piercing sound, a sound of flesh being pierced suddenly came from beside me.
With a cold expression, Gu Mu instantly moved to Hiruzen Sarutobi's side and then stabbed at the Enma who was restraining Orochimaru with astonishing speed.
"Ancient tree!!!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi stared wide-eyed at what was happening before him in disbelief.
He couldn't understand why Gu Mu would attack him.
"It's over. Go to sleep peacefully."
The ape demon, pierced by violence, turned into smoke and disappeared.
Gu Mu's face was expressionless, as if he had transformed into a cold-blooded killer.
He held the demon sword Muramasa high, filled with boundless killing intent, and slashed it down fiercely at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes flickered; the terrifying slash sent his body flying backward instantly.
Blood gushed from his chest as if it were free. Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was already severely injured, was completely killed by Koki's merciless sword strike.
Chapter 77 With just a few words of fear, everyone collapsed to the ground.
"Whoo~"
Orochimaru let out a heavy sigh, moved his hands, and after confirming that he was in good physical condition, the huge weight that had been hanging over his heart finally lifted.
Only at this moment did he truly realize how wonderful it was to be able to move his hands freely.
Thinking of this, Orochimaru couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If he lost his ninjutsu, he would no longer be able to continue his research, and such a life would be worse than death for him.
"Crack!"
Gu Mu sheathed his demon sword and quietly focused his gaze on Orochimaru.
He knew in his heart that if he wanted to completely break free from the shackles of the Impure World Reincarnation and achieve a true rebirth, he might still have to rely on Orochimaru's power in the future.
Who knows, maybe in the future we'll transplant Hashirama cells, Rinnegan or something like that...
Orochimaru carefully observed the ancient tree, and when he discovered that the connection between himself and the tree had been severed, he was shocked.
He found it hard to believe what was happening before his eyes; someone could actually break the shackles of the Impure World Reincarnation.
This fact made him begin to re-examine Gu Mu as a person.
Orochimaru stared expressionlessly at the deep ravine, a sense of fear rising within him.
He's definitely no match for me in his current condition.
It's time for a strategic retreat.
He turned to the four Sound Ninja maintaining the formation and gave the order: "The operation is over, the barrier is no longer needed, let's retreat!"
After saying that, he leaped away and quickly left.
The four Sound Ninja hurriedly followed Orochimaru and left the scene together.
As they left, the Four Purple Flame Array gradually disappeared, as if it had never existed.
Up in the attic, the members of Konoha's Anbu were waiting for their chance.
When they saw the formation disappear, they immediately shouted excitedly, "The formation is gone! Let's move quickly!"
Without hesitation, they rushed into the Wood Release technique, hoping to provide timely assistance to the Third Hokage.
However, when they arrived at their destination, they found only a cold corpse lying on the roof.
"The Third Hokage!!"
Several secret agents stared in horror at the corpse lying in a pool of blood.
Let's do a quick investigation.
As they expected, the Third Hokage passed away.
"Damn it, damn Orochimaru, how dare he betray his master and ancestors!!" One of the ANBU ninjas said with intense anger.
"Wait, there's another person over there."
Under Koki's watchful gaze, the three Anbu ninjas who were originally standing next to Hiruzen Sarutobi instantly came to his side, forming a triangle and surrounding him.
"Who are you!!"
"The guy Orochimaru summoned, but now, it seems to have been abandoned here."
"Describe in detail what just happened."
The three members of the secret service had serious expressions, and although they didn't look very old, their eyes were not relaxed at all.
Based on Orochimaru's words, this guy seems to be the first owner of the Muramasa demon sword.
"what's going on?"
"I don't know, I'm the victim."
With a playful smirk on his face, Gu Mu slightly reached out, and in an instant, the surrounding occupants tensed up and quickly moved away.
When they saw that Gu Mu had simply stretched, they were all embarrassed and felt ashamed.
Despite being elite members of Konoha's Anbu, they were actually scared off by this guy's simple yawn.
"victim?"
"Then don't resist, please cooperate with our investigation!"
The group of secret agents exchanged glances and approached slowly, still somewhat suspicious.
"it is good."
Gu Mu adopted a harmless expression, and upon seeing the three ANBU members, he took the initiative to approach them, then slowly placed his hand on the demon sword.
"Oh no, I think I'm losing control of my hands~"
With a theatrical flair, Gu Mu reached out and stopped his hand from gripping the demon sword. Then, to the astonishment of the three ANBU ninjas, he unleashed a deafening slash.
A dazzling ring of purple light tore through space, accompanied by a tremendous roar, and slashed outwards.
In an instant, this powerful force cleaved all the surrounding trees into pieces.
The terrifying purple slash extended out at an astonishing speed, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake.
The three members of the secret service were startled by the sudden attack. They stared wide-eyed at Gu Mu in astonishment.
This guy looks harmless, but who would have thought he'd be so terrifying when he gets going?
The commotion attracted many Konoha ninja who were fighting against the Sand Ninja.
They stared at the pavilion, somewhat lost in thought.
"You fucking out of control!!"
The three ANBU ninjas lay face down on the ground, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
If it weren't for the ancient tree's warning, they would probably be broken into pieces like those wood-elemental beings right now.
"How to do?"
The Muramasa demon sword in Gu Mu's hand emitted a dense purple demonic aura, as if it were under his control, and his face was filled with worry.
Faced with Koki's question, the three ANBU ninjas cursed inwardly, "You're asking me?! Who are we supposed to ask?!"
"what's going on?"
Before the ANBU could leave, a cold-looking man with silver hair and a black eye patch arrived at the ANBU's location.
"Kakashi, the Hokage-sama, it seems he's been killed." Might Guy, who was standing next to Kakashi, sounded dejected.
"To avoid causing panic, you guys should first collect the Hokage's body. We'll handle this person for you."
As an elite Jonin in the village, Kakashi Hatake naturally had to step forward in this time of crisis.
In an instant, lightning began to wrap around Kakashi's arm.
"Raikiri!!"
