Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

In the forest, Kabuto, who was flying through the forest with Orochimaru, looked back at the calm woods behind him and said, "Lord Orochimaru, it seems that Scorpion has not caught up with him anymore."

"It seems that the attack just now also caused a lot of damage to him." Orochimaru said, "Unfortunately, the rejection of this body is getting more and more serious, and I can't take advantage of the victory to pursue him."

As Orochimaru said, three years have passed since the body of "Genyoumaru" was fused.

Three years ago, Orochimaru couldn't wait for Sasuke's body and his own body was on the verge of collapse, so he had to be reincarnated into the temporarily selected "Genyoumaru".

Originally, the physical adaptability of "Huan You Pill" was average, but in the past three years, the rejection between the soul and the body has become more and more serious.

In addition, the battle just now had overdrawn the strength of his body, and the pain all over his body made him a little irritable.

"Be patient... Sasuke is in my hands, I don't need to worry." Orochimaru comforted himself and forcibly suppressed his impatient heart. Now was not the perfect time to seize Sasuke's body.

While Orochimaru was comforting himself, he noticed from the corner of his vision that Kabuto's face seemed a little bad, so he asked with concern: "Kabuto, how is your health?"

"There's no problem, it's just that the scorpion's venom is a bit powerful." Kabuto said, pressing his palm on the chest where the poisonous needle had pricked him. "Even though the effect has been suppressed by the medicine, the numbing feeling is still very awkward."

Hearing Kabuto's words, Orochimaru smiled and said: "It seems that Scorpion has not wasted time in the past few years and has been making preparations against me."

"We have to return to the base quickly. According to my estimation, the effect of this delaying potion can only last for one day at most." Kabuto said with some worry, "Only when we return to the base can I prepare it as quickly as possible.

Antidote.”

Orochimaru frowned and said: "We really have to hurry up. If Scorpion recovers, he should catch up with us soon. And..."

As a former member of the Akatsuki organization, Orochimaru knew very well: When the Akatsuki organization performed tasks, they always acted together.

But today, he and Kabuto only saw Xie from the beginning to the end, with no trace of the other person at all. This person hiding in the dark made him feel very nervous and fearful.

"Could it be the blond kid who could throw bombs from last time?" Orochimaru thought of Deidara who was with Scorpion when Scorpion came to see him last time.

That time, he didn't want to continue to tangle with Scorpion, so he just fought with Scorpion a few times and then fled in a hurry. As a result, Deidara directly used explosive clay to level his base, which impressed him deeply.

"But it doesn't matter, I also have my own backup plan." Orochimaru's eyes looked into the distance, as if he saw something that made him feel at ease.

Orochimaru and Kabuto walked through the forest, crossed the river, and ran at full speed until they arrived at a deserted Gobi desert.

After bypassing several rocky hills, the two came to an ordinary and inconspicuous rocky hill.

Kabuto stepped forward first and formed seals with his hands. The thick rock wall began to rumble and move, slowly sliding to both sides, revealing a staircase leading to the ground.

"Let's go!" Orochimaru walked down the stairs first, followed closely by Kabuto.

Rumble... As the two left, the rock walls began to slowly merge again, and everything returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

Whoosh——

After a while, Scorpion on his surfboard and Team 7 standing behind him stopped not far from the rock wall.

Jumping off the surfboard, Qi Fei pointed to the rocky hill not far away and said: "Under that rocky hill is Orochimaru's base.

"By the way, I have some good news for you. Sasuke is also down there, and besides Orochimaru, Sasuke and Kabuto, there are no other obstructions in the base."

"Sasuke..." Upon hearing that Sasuke was under the rock mountain, Naruto immediately became eager to try.

As a result, a palm patted Naruto's shoulder, stopping his movements.

Naruto turned his head and saw Kakashi looking at him with a smile and said: "Calm down, Naruto. Don't forget our plan."

"That's right, Naruto. Now that we have found it, we will not let Sasuke leave again." Sakura on the side also agreed.

In fact, she was also in a hurry and wanted to use the "Sakura Rush" move to blast the rock wall right now, rush into Orochimaru's base and drag Sasuke out.

But he believed in Kakashi and Qi Fei's strength, and it would be safer to proceed according to the plan.

After seeing Sakura and Naruto calm down, Kakashi nodded to Qi Fei and said, "It's up to you, Qi Fei."

"Don't worry, let's hide far away first." Qi Fei pointed to a relatively hidden place and said, "Wait until the battle is almost over before we intervene."

After Class 7 left, Xia jumped off the surfboard.

As soon as he raised his hand, the iron sand condensed into a huge triangular pyramid again and spun at high speed, like a huge steel top.

With a wave of his hand, the sharp side of the top crashed directly into the thick rock wall, and continued to advance forward like an electric drill.

Boom, boom, boom... Accompanied by huge roars and flying rubble, a large hole was drilled into Orochimaru's base that went straight to the ground.

"Aren't you coming out yet?" Xia saw that Orochimaru would not come out even if the gate was demolished, so he was ready to continue digging forward.

Bang! Just when Scorpion moved the giant top again, with a muffled sound, a giant python used its head to push the top out of the cave.

"After all these years, your nose is still as sharp as a dog, Scorpion." Orochimaru's figure walked out from behind the python.

Scorpion said expressionlessly: "You are the same, you are still like a loach or a cockroach, you can't kill me even though you are so fast."

"Haha... I won't run away this time. I have found a very good opponent for you." Orochimaru said with a smile, "Sasuke."

"Is he the one you're going to be sparring with today?" A young man with black hair, black eyes, wearing a pure white kimono, and a long sword stuck at his waist walked out of the shadows behind Orochimaru.

Seeing Sasuke's appearance, Scorpion became obviously wary. He retracted all the iron sand and directly extended the steel cable from his abdomen to surround himself.

"Scorpion and Itachi are both members of the Akatsuki organization. If you can defeat him, you might be able to ask for news about Itachi."

After hearing Orochimaru's words, Sasuke put his hand on the Kusanagi sword at his waist and asked: "In other words, his strength is about the same as Itachi's?"

"Hahaha... You can think so. There are quite a few masters who were poisoned, killed and then turned into puppets by him."

As soon as Orochimaru finished speaking, Sasuke's eyes instantly turned into blood-red three-magatama Sharingan eyes, staring at Scorpion closely and saying: "That's just right for me to see the gap between me and that man."

Phew! Without any warning, the giant cylinder of iron sand smashed straight towards Sasuke's position.

Zizzizi... At the same time, accompanied by a sound like a thousand birds chirping in unison, Sasuke's wrist holding the Kusanagi sword began to shine with electric light, and at the same time he raised his feet and stepped forward...

Clang - Accompanied by the harsh sound of steel friction, Sasuke and the cylinder passed each other, and the originally thick and solid steel cylinder was directly split in half by Sasuke.

Sasuke ignored the two pieces of scrap metal behind him, holding the Kusanagi sword that was constantly shining with electric light, and swung it towards Scorpion's position.
