Chapter 132: The Resurrection Match Was Won
"!!!"
One second she was negotiating with Orochimaru, and the next she was hit with this shock. Akali was caught off guard.
She could certainly activate her shield and withstand the attack head-on, but doing so would be akin to Kimimaro falling from a hundred meters in the air and crashing headfirst into a steel plate, inevitably leading to his death.
With no other option, Akali had to choose to take the hit herself once in a long time.
She extended her hands, shimmering with golden light, towards Kimimaro, while simultaneously forming a net of gentle psychic power.
Enveloped in psychic energy, the weakened impact reached Akali's hands and was then channeled into her feet.
In an instant, the earth was as fragile as tofu, as Akali's feet plowed a long trench, and intense dust spread!
At that moment, Might Guy, who had unleashed a powerful attack, also arrived in front of Dust.
The Daytime Tiger attack was just a temporary outburst; Might Guy has already reverted to his sixth gate state after the outburst.
Kimimaro was very strong, but the Bloodstained Disease held him back, giving him only a fleeting opportunity to shine.
The strongest wave was taken down head-on, and the rest was easy.
However, anticipating the enemy's moves, and looking at the smoke, the straightforward Might Guy adopted the starting stance of the Morning Peacock.
Seeing this, Akali quickly called out, "Teacher Kai, spare him!"
Akali?
Hearing Akali's voice, Might Guy frowned, scratched the back of his head, and looked puzzled: "Where are you?"
"Right in front of you!" Akali sighed, forming hand seals. "Wind Release: Typhoon Passes!"
"call--"
A strong gust of wind blew in, causing the smoke to dissipate quickly.
Akali, and Kimimaro beneath her feet, appeared before Might Guy.
Looking at the mud piled up at Akali's feet, what had just happened was self-evident.
Clearly, his Daybreak Tiger accidentally hit Akali, injuring his teammate.
Might Guy looked apologetic: "Um, sorry Akali, I didn't notice you were here!"
"It's alright, it's alright, it's my fault for notifying you, Teacher Kai!"
Although she was already thinking to herself, "Family, who understands?", Akali still acted magnanimously.
at the same time……
"Well……"
Kimimaro, who was lying on the ground, suddenly let out a slightly painful groan, and then the Cursed Seal II state quickly faded.
Those eyes, adorned with red eyeshadow, trembled, and it was clear they were about to wake up.
Upon seeing this, Might Guy instantly became alert, and the chakra flames around him surged once more: "Akali, get away from this person quickly, he's dangerous!"
"It's alright, Mr. Kai, the battle is over!"
Akali quickly raised her hand to stop the excited Might Guy.
The second curse seal may self-destruct, but that is a sign that the user cannot maintain it, or that they are about to die.
In such a situation, how could the user possibly wake up?
Kimimaro was about to wake up, thanks, of course, to the little white snake that was perched on his chest.
Under Orochimaru's continued treatment, Kimimaro opened his pale green eyes.
Looking at the little white snake on his chest, Kimimaro was extremely excited: "You are... Lord Orochimaru?"
"You actually revealed such a true form, which means..."
"Yes, Kimimaro, we have been defeated!"
The little white snake nodded its delicate head and emitted a pleasant and magnetic female voice.
"I apologize, Lord Orochimaru, it is our incompetence that is to blame!"
Kimimaro's expression suddenly turned to extreme pain.
He then began to draw upon the remaining chakra in his body, grabbing Orochimaru and pulling him into his robes:
"Don't worry, Lord Orochimaru, even if it costs me my life, I will escort you out!"
"Oh?" Might Guy raised an eyebrow as he watched Kimimaro's actions, his thick eyebrows and dark eyes gradually becoming serious.
Fortunately, Orochimaru's voice came again at that moment:
"That's enough, Kimimaro, everything's alright now, we don't need to fight anymore!"
"A defeat is a defeat. I brought you back, not so you could die. Get some sleep!"
Orochimaru had somehow slithered up to Kimimaro's neck, then extended his little tail and gently tapped Kimimaro's temple.
An invisible wave of illusion arose.
"Well……"
Kimimaro rolled his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Then, Orochimaru climbed back onto Akali's hand.
Akali looked at her with surprise: "Oh ho, I didn't realize you were so kind! It's rare to see you treat your subordinates so well."
"Indeed!" Orochimaru did not deny Akali's statement.
"Kimimaro is a very talented child, but unfortunately he is plagued by blood disease. With my level of medical ninjutsu, I cannot help him."
"So, let's see if there's any chance of a turnaround at Konoha Hospital after being captured by Konoha this time!"
Of course, while it was called Konoha Hospital, Orochimaru was actually after Tsunade, and Akali understood her intentions.
"Is that what you think?"
Looking at the unconscious Kimimaro, Akali suddenly had an idea.
"Let's add one more thing, Orochimaru. Give me him, and I promise to cure his bloodstain disease. How about it?"
Two characters that most people who travel through time to Naruto would definitely want to recruit are Haku and Kimimaro.
Akali had no chance, no lingering feelings, and she had no interest in cute boys at that time.
But Kimimaro is indeed a pity; there was still a chance to try and get him.
"Is that so..." Orochimaru fell into deep thought upon hearing Akali's words.
She has a selfish side to her personality, but when it comes to valuing talent, she truly values it.
Furthermore, Orochimaru loves change and hates stagnation.
Since he couldn't save Kimimaro, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let go.
She was also quite curious to see what kind of storm Kimimaro would stir up in the ninja world.
but……
"Are you sure?"
“Of course!” Akali said confidently.
"Alright!" Orochimaru agreed to Akali's conditions: "In that case, Kimimaro is yours! I'll talk to him when he wakes up!"
"OK, deal!"
Akali took out several bottles of potions from her storage space and poured them down the throat of the unconscious Kimimaro.
Then she looked at Might Guy: "Guy-sensei, can you do me a favor? Send him to Hyuga for me, and tell them it was my order to have the people of Hyuga keep him alive for now."
"That's certainly possible, but..."
Might Guy glanced at Akali and the little white snake in her hand, his expression gradually becoming confused:
"He just called it Orochimaru, what's going on with you guys? Is it Orochimaru?"
"Yes, Orochimaru has been captured by me. She is now my summoning beast. However, the situation is complicated. I can only say that those who know, know; those who don't, I won't say more."
Akali quickly said, "So, Mr. Kai, please take him there for me first. I'll explain later if there's a chance!"
"All right!"
Based on their previous interactions and Akali's high favorability rating, Might Guy didn't hesitate much. He picked up Kimimaro and disappeared from the spot in a few blinks.
"call--"
Akali breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Might Guy leave, secretly marveling at her own foresight.
Luckily, she had worked on Might Guy's favorability beforehand, otherwise things might have been very different today.
After all, once someone like Matt Kay gets stubborn, no one can persuade him otherwise.
Having dealt with Kimimaro, Akali is now truly planning to go find Hinata; she needs to keep Hinata informed about the arrangements made with the Hyuga clan.
Coincidentally, from Akali's perspective, she could also see the gigantic Shukaku fighting the unlucky and tragic Gamabunta.
Clearly, Naruto's side is almost finished too.
After sensing the Flying Thunder God mark on Hinata, Akali prepared to use Flying Thunder God to leave.
But at that moment, Orochimaru, who was resting on Akali's shoulder, panting and recovering the chakra he had just used up, suddenly straightened up.
Incredulity shone in those small eyes!
"The original's reaction has disappeared?"
"And the second generation..."
"He broke free from my control!?"
"What!!?"
Akali looked over in surprise as she heard Orochimaru's mutterings.
"What's going on? How did it manage to break free?"
"I do not know either!"
"Moreover, judging from the feeling, the second generation has been free for quite some time, but I didn't feel it because I was burdened by the first generation."
"I thought my chakra had been restored when I was able to heal Kimimaro!"
Orochimaru's snake-like face was filled with utter bewilderment.
"Ah, this..." Akali couldn't hold back anymore.
After all, she could understand if it disappeared; wasn't it just being sealed away?
If you can break free...
So, is Tobirama Senju about to live a second life?
But how did they manage to do that?
Akali also typed a few question marks.
Then, disregarding Naruto's situation, Akali quickly determined the direction and ran directly towards the battlefield where she remembered the First and Second Hokage.
But let's rewind ten minutes.
Within the tree realm of Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju's figure flashed rapidly through the forest.
Then, a rustling sound came from a tree ahead, startling Tobirama Senju.
Driven by his body's fighting instincts, Tobirama Senju quickly formed hand seals: "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The next second, a large number of water droplets appeared out of thin air and formed a majestic water dragon, which blasted towards the place where the sound came from!
"Boom!"
With Tobirama Senju's mastery of Water Release, even the sturdy Wood Release trees were instantly smashed to pieces, and Danzo's disheveled figure appeared.
Whether it was because they didn't react in time, or because Tobirama Senju's movements were too fast, it's unclear.
When Danzo reappeared, he was trembling and staggering, seemingly seriously injured!
"An opportunity!" Tobirama Senju's battle instincts led him to this conclusion.
Stepping on the puddles on the ground, using a special water-based movement technique, Tobirama Senju quickly arrived behind Danzo and thrust his sharp kunai down heavily!
But just then, a cloud of smoke suddenly rose from Danzo's body, and Mitokado Homura's old face appeared!
He was covered in sweat but had an excited look on his face, and he was holding up an open scroll!
"Teacher, you've fallen for their trap!"
"Secret Technique: A Hundred Machines Barrage!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
From Mitomon Homura's scroll, a large number of ninja tools were fired at Senju Tobirama!
"Good timing!"
Tobirama Senju's eyes revealed admiration.
Even so, with just a slight change in the hand seals, a stream of light blue chakra was injected into the kunai.
Immediately, Tobirama Senju reached out and slashed, intercepting all of Homura Mitokado's attacks with a water blade.
Not only that, the water blade continued its relentless attack on Mitomon Homura.
Under the attack of the water blades, Mitomon Homura was caught off guard, his old body unable to react at all.
It seems he is completely unworthy of the praise Tobirama Senju had given him.
However, Tobirama Senju's praise was not for him.
"Teacher, I'm not a problem either!"
Just now, a kunai that Mitokado Homura had shot out suddenly exploded into smoke. Danzo formed hand seals and shouted, "Sexy Sun Bro!"
The Wind Release: Vacuum Ball was spat out from Danzo's mouth, and the high-speed, high-pressure wind ball arrived, instantly shattering half of Tobirama Senju's body.
His remaining half of his body was carried forward by the wind, crashing into countless trees before finally stopping.
Then, Tobirama Senju's shattered body began to slowly recover.
Seeing this, Danzo breathed a sigh of relief, and a genuine look of joy appeared on his sinister face:
"As expected of the teacher, even with only half his strength left and unable to use the Flying Thunder God Technique, he is still so powerful relying solely on his fighting instincts!"
"But in the end, I won this battle!"
"Teacher, I am about to seal you away. Please forgive me!"
Danzo walked toward Tobirama Senju, forming sealing hand seals as he went.
His entire right hand was wrapped in thick bandages, and only the heavy metal parts could be seen through the faint signs of damage.
But in reality, this did not affect his actions at all.
Seeing this, Tobirama Senju's eyes flashed, and he suddenly spoke: "Danzo, now you can tell me about your Space-Time Substitution Technique."
"To be honest, I'm really curious about substitution techniques that involve space and time!"
"Haha, of course!"
Danzo paused, a hint of gloom flashing across his face, but he quickly concealed it.
After all, he doesn't have any space-time substitution technique; it's all just Izanagi!
Fortunately, his right arm was designed with the function of concealing information in mind, which prevented him from being exposed in front of Tobirama Senju.
Tobirama Senju had asked about it before, but Danzo brushed him off, saying he would come back later.
Danzo has no excuse to continue fooling around, but fortunately, Tobirama Senju is about to be sealed away by him!
"Well, actually it's like this..."
Danzo recalled the project report Orochimaru had given him and prepared to just pick something random to fool people.
Therefore, while forming hand seals and recalling the past, he did not notice that the remaining half of Tobirama Senju's body had a right hand behind his back, slowly forming hand seals.
The hand seal he formed was: Zi-Chou-Shen-Yin-Chen-Hai!
And this is precisely the release seal of the Impure World Reincarnation!
Just as Danzo was spouting nonsense and reaching out to Tobirama Senju to seal him, a hand like an iron clamp suddenly grabbed his wrist, preventing him from falling!
Then, before Danzo could retaliate, Tobirama Senju vanished from Danzo's sight with a Flying Thunder God Technique!
"Huh!!?" Danzo's expression changed drastically.
"What about people?"
"And that was... Flying Thunder God!!?"
