Naruto: The Strongest Sage

The battle power that Sarutobi Hiruzen exploded this time seems to be stronger than the original plot.

The most important thing is that Orochimaru has lost the Kusanagi sword and can't manipulate the Kusanagi sword to pierce Sarutobi Hiruzen's body from behind like in the original plot.

Although the kunai hit. But it didn't hit the heart.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was in the explosion, as if he didn't feel the injury, and frantically urged chakra to summon the soul of the god of death.

Orochimaru was also stunned when he saw the god of death. Once the Shiki seal was hit, the whole body couldn't move at all.

And he also realized that this technique was aimed at the soul. It was not something that his substitute technique could recover at all.

"Orochimaru, it's my fault that caused everything now. Now, we have unlimited time to fight forever in the belly of the god of death."

The god of death has taken out the knife in his mouth. With one cut, there will be no more Orochimaru in the world.

But at this time, a voice suddenly came from not far away.

"Bracken Dance!"

Aoba turned his head to look at Kimimaro in the distance. Kimimaro, who was already dying, actually forced to use the last killing move of the Corpse Vein.

Countless bones drilled out from the ground, turning the entire stadium into a forest of bones. More than one bone directly pierced Sarutobi Hiruzen's body.

"Old man." Jiraiya shouted. He rushed up directly.

This time, Aoba and Kakashi did not stop him.

The god of death paused for a moment, and the knife still fell. But at this time, a person suddenly grew out of a bone behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

This is the secret of Kimimaro's Bracken Dance. The person and the skeleton are integrated, and can emerge from any bone.

Kimimaro's entire arm turned into a huge conical bone spur. It pierced Sarutobi Hiruzen's body directly from behind.

This blow was too heavy. Sarutobi Hiruzen's entire chest was smashed.

His last breath was completely shattered. The death god's knife fell, but it was far away from the original target and only scratched Orochimaru's hands.

Jiraiya rushed up and lifted up the dead Kimimaro. He reached out and supported Sarutobi Hiruzen.

And Orochimaru stepped back suddenly, and then stared at his hands in a daze. No matter how hard he tried, his hands had no feeling at all.

Even after using the molting substitute, it was still the same. Thinking of the Shikigami Fengjin just now, he finally understood. His hands were not injured. It was his soul that was missing the parts of his hands.

After suffering such a blow, Orochimaru finally lost his composure completely. He turned around and ran without thinking.

After looking at Aoba from a distance and making sure that Aoba had no intention of attacking, he disappeared from the scene with a burrow.

Kakashi looked at Aoba. Aoba knew what he meant.

"No need to chase him, he still has value."

In fact, whether Orochimaru was injured or dead today, it was all in Aoba's plan.

Don't forget that Aoba had obtained the mask of the god of death a long time ago. If Orochimaru died under the Shiki Fuujin, it would be almost equivalent to falling into his hands.

And if the other party was just injured, then wait for the next transaction.

Orochimaru still has a lot of good things in his hands. Not only the improved version of the Impure World Reincarnation. In the future, there will be the White Geki Jutsu, the Yamata no Orochi Jutsu, and so on. His non-corpse reincarnation, and those ninjutsu of shedding skin substitutes, are all rare good things in the ninja world.

Aoba can slowly fleece the wool. After fleecing all of them, he can deal with Orochimaru.

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his eyes slightly and saw that it was Jiraiya. His mouth moved as if he wanted to say something.

But in the end, he didn't say anything and completely lost his life.

Aoba casually burned the documents that Jiraiya had thrown away. Then he walked behind Jiraiya with the group of children.

"Grandpa Hokage... is dead." Naruto said in an incredible tone.

"Yes, he is dead." Sasuke's tone was a little strange. There was no snickering, nor sadness.

The expressions of the other Xiaoqiangs were different. But most of them were still sad.

At this time, the offensive of Sand Village had begun to show a clear decline. After all, when Jiraiya, Aoba, and Kakashi returned. But by the way, they cleaned up a lot of Sand Ninjas.

This freed up a large number of Konoha ninjas to support others. This formed a virtuous circle. At this time, many battlefields had begun to be reworked.

And Sand

On the Yin and Otonin side, after losing the support of Orochimaru and the tailed beasts, they gradually began to collapse.

A large number of ninjas were killed and captured.

At this time, Shikamaru's Ino-Shika-Chou team returned with the captured Temari and Kankuro. He saw several friends at the scene at a glance.

Choji wanted to say hello. But Shikamaru stopped him. With Shikamaru's intelligence, seeing the expressions of everyone. Thinking of this venue, he quickly understood what happened.

After approaching, several people saw the Hokage on the ground.

"Hokage-sama!!" Ino covered her mouth in shock, with an unbelievable look on her face. Even Choji put down the snacks in his hand.

Shikamaru looked at the dead Hokage, and suddenly his mind popped up the words his father said to him not long ago.

"You will understand soon."

So, is this the result? Shikamaru's mind flashed back to the state of his father's loss of appetite some time ago. It turned out that his father had already noticed what was going to happen at that time.

As the young patriarch of the Nara family, Shikamaru naturally has more to think about. But now is obviously not a good time to discuss these things.

Sand and Sound have begun to retreat. But the situation has not completely improved.

War does not end when the enemy is defeated. The destruction it brings will continue for quite a long time.

It has been less than a day since the fight. But half of the entire Konoha has turned into ruins.

Tens of thousands of wounded have nowhere to go. Tens of thousands of people are homeless.

There are still countless ninjas who died in the war and have not yet been counted. It can be said that the next period of time is the most difficult time for Konoha.

Although the Sand Ninja did not succeed. But they still really hit Konoha hard. Even killed Konoha's Hokage. This is an extremely dangerous sign. It means that Konoha has fallen into a moment of unprecedented weakness without a leader.

The five major ninja villages are not peace organizations. In addition to Konoha, the other ninja villages have coveted Konoha for a long time. As long as there is a chance, they will never let it go.

Aoba could even be sure that the ninjas from Iwagakure and Kumogakure were on their way. And this time it was not a test, but a blatant show of strength. As long as they had the chance, they would definitely pounce on Konoha and bite off a piece of its flesh.
