Chapter 286 Sasuke IF Line (8) Curse, Trade and HuntingUnexpected words come from unexpected people.

Kakashi and the ANBU looked at the black-haired boy in disbelief.

"Are you Orochimaru's man?" Kakashi bent down, stepped forward, and blocked the way. "When?"

No wonder.He asked why Sasuke knew so many unknown ninjutsu.

I originally thought it was a secret of the Uchiha clan.

Now it seems that this was the work of Orochimaru?"He is my prey." Sasuke emphasized again, "Konoha, stop it."

"Are you going to betray the village?" The Anbu captain finally reacted at this time, and shouted in a gloomy voice, "Orochimaru just killed the Third Hokage!"

Sasuke had a cold face and said nothing.

Orochimaru could get information about Uchiha Itachi, a mere traitor ninja, so it was even more impossible for Konoha to know nothing about Uchiha Itachi. But he couldn't get any information about Uchiha Itachi from Konoha.

The result was obvious, and Konoha didn't want to tell him.

You can even think darker.

They want to use this matter as a bridle, put it around their necks, threaten them, and order them around at will.

This method is too common.

Sasuke has used this method many times. It is the most effective method for dealing with those guys who may be locked up in the maggot nest but have some abilities.

only.Before using this method, there is a prerequisite.

That is strength.

If we can't suppress those guys in the Maggot Nest, these methods will be useless. As soon as we open our mouths to threaten, those threatening elements will take action and cause chaos.

obviously.

The current Konoha is not strong enough to suppress Sasuke.

This method of blackmail will not have any effect.

Not to mention, Sasuke has other options.

He drew his sword and held it horizontally.

No words, but the attitude is clear.

"Orochimaru has been injured by the Third Hokage. Now the mission has changed." The Anbu captain spoke and was about to issue the order, "Kill on the spot."

Kakashi interrupted him: "Capture Uchiha Sasuke and keep him alive."

Not just for personal reasons.

The Uchiha clan is very important to Konoha.

The purpose is also to torture him to get information related to Orochimaru.

He just finished speaking.

An Anbu appeared and rushed over quietly.

Sasuke hunched his waist, fell backwards, grabbed the man's wrist, pulled and pushed, and with his other hand he drew his knife, stabbing and twisting.

Blood splattered.

Kakashi looked cautious.

The dark captain is incredible.

That ANBU was a "special jonin", and he was killed in less than one round of fighting?"I said, Orochimaru is my prey now." Sasuke casually threw the Anbu aside, the scarlet three-magatama Sharingan in his eyes seemed to be stained with the man's blood, "Now retreat."

"Come on"

"No matter who it is, I will show no mercy."

His eyes swept across several people, paused on Kakashi's covered eye, then turned around and left in an instant.

"Do you want to chase?" The Anbu captain tilted his head and looked at Kakashi.

The order just now being snatched away made him realize that the leader of this small force was now Hatake Kakashi.

"No need." Kakashi shook his head, "Go back and support the front battlefield."

"And those people from the Wind Country haven't been dealt with yet."

The other ninjas responded.

Kakashi couldn't help but look into the distance again.

He couldn't figure it out.

Orochimaru is a traitor ninja.

Sasuke is Konoha's rising starwhy?The Sand Village Ninjas were losing ground. They were originally playing away from home and had lost such a powerful helper as "Kage". They had no hope of winning at all, which was why Kakashi and the others dared to chase them out without any worries.

But the impact these people have is huge.

The whole village was dragged into the vortex of war.

Outside Konoha Village.

Orochimaru escaped, and the five men's pace slowed down slightly.

"Don't stop." Orochimaru said in a cold tone, trying to hold back the pain, "The people from Konoha will catch up."

"The people of Sunagakure can't stop all the ninjas of Konoha."

The five people did not dare to relax and continued to move forward.

But he hasn’t taken a few steps yet.

Orochimaru turned his head and gritted his teeth: "Someone is chasing us!"

“Very fast.”

Among the five people, the man with six arms stopped. His ability was most suitable for covering the rear and escaping from Konoha. His technique played a vital role in this.

He made seals with his hands and was about to open his mouth to spit out a spider web.

But a moment later——

Five beams of light came down silently and with great speed and ferocity.

The spider web flew, unable to stop it, and stuck to the beam of light, being carried away and flying backwards.

The man with six arms, his head, two main arms, and both feet were shot accurately and nailed to the tree.

He still had two opponents left and was not completely imprisoned.

Can.He waved his claws and fangs, trying to pull out the beam of light, but although it was only a tiny strand, it was incredibly strong, as if it was grown into his flesh and blood and bones.

The technique cannot be used.

This beam of light contained a sealing power that caused the chakra in his body to stagnate, making it difficult for him to use it.

Is there such a sealing master in Konoha?Among the five people, two of them moved away and stopped.

"You take Lord Orochimaru away, and we will cover your retreat."

These two people volunteered.

But Orochimaru sneered: "No, those who come are not enemies."

He tilted his head and looked in the direction the technique came from: "Right, Sasuke-kun."

A figure walked out from behind the tree canopy, saying calmly, "Whether we are enemies or not depends on your attitude, Orochimaru."

It's Sasuke Uchiha.

The five people's reactions were different, some were surprised, some were gnashing their teeth, and some were relieved."What attitude do you want from me?" Orochimaru asked softly, "Sasuke-kun, I have made it very clear in the Forest of Death."

Sasuke put his hands in his pockets: "But you should know what I really want."

"Itachi Uchiha."

"I want to know everything you know about him."

Orochimaru grinned, "Information about Itachi."

"The value of these things is very precious."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes and said, "Does your life matter?"

Orochimaru smiled and looked towards the village not far away: "The reason why the people from Konoha didn't chase us is probably because of Sasuke-kun's help."

"I am grateful to you."

"In return, I can tell you a little news."

Sasuke interrupted him, speaking calmly, "I want them all."

"Don't be impatient, Sasuke-kun." Orochimaru lowered his head, glanced down at his arms, and said in a deep voice, "The value of that information."

Sasuke interrupted again, "I don't know what you have in mind for me."

"But Orochimaru, you have to understand."

"The reason I'm telling you these things now is not just because I stopped Konoha Anbu for you just now."

"And your life."

He paused, opened his Sharingan, and the three magatama rotated, exuding a terrifying aura.

"Do you think that in your current state, with these scumbags, you can be my opponent?"

Orochimaru chuckled and was unmoved: "Don't underestimate them, Sasuke-kun."

"To know"

"The guy I chose as my personal bodyguard may not be as talented as you, Sasuke-kun, but he's not weak either."

Sasuke said softly: "What about this?"

The three rotating magatama left afterimages on the eyeball, gradually converging into a new pattern, a scarlet hexagram that almost occupied the entire eyeball.

"Mangekyo!" Orochimaru's expression finally changed, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "You actually opened the Mangekyō!"

Sasuke said nothing.

Orochimaru took a deep breath.

Unexpected information.

Sasuke's talent was so strong that even he felt terrifying. He was only twelve years old, and he had already opened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Even Uchiha Itachi's talent was not to this level.

He looked around, thinking.

Too dangerous.

I'm afraid this kind of guy has become something that I can't tame.

Want to cooperate?

Or.Although it is not easy to train the Five People, compared to myself, I am of course more important.

"It seems that you still have some way to escape from my hands?" Sasuke noticed that his attitude was a little subtle, and took the opportunity to ask, "Rely on these few people?"

Orochimaru said nothing, nor did he look up.

"It seems not, so you think I can't kill you?" Sasuke continued, "Others can't see it, but I can."

Orochimaru looked up.

See?

what did you see?"The God of Death." Sasuke said calmly, "The God of Death summoned by the Third Hokage took away the souls of the First and Second Hokage, and also cut off the souls from your hands."

Orochimaru's pupils shrank.

Can you see this?It is stated so clearly, there must be no doubt about it.

The ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan?

"I can do something like this." Sasuke took his right hand out of his pocket and grasped the hilt of the knife. "If you don't answer now, I can find a way to force you to answer after I capture your soul."

Orochimaru believed it.

He had seen Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan, and its powerful illusion ability allowed him to be defeated with one strike.

Although illusions affect the five senses, they are mental attacks after all. Even ordinary ninjas can master them, so it is not impossible for the Mangekyō Sharingan to evolve into soul attacks.

"Really," Orochimaru sighed, "Sasuke-kun you are no deal."

Really bad.

He thought that a twelve-year-old Uchiha would be a lamb to be slaughtered at his will.

I was just planning on taking advantage of his body.

did not expect.I am the lamb to be slaughtered.

When we were in the Forest of Death, I didn't use my full abilities, and Sasuke-kun hid his abilities even deeper than I did.

Sasuke sneered: "When did I say this was a deal."

"As long as I get what I want, the means don't matter."

"Get this straight, Orochimaru."

Orochimaru shook his head: "It's too dangerous here, shall we go back first?"

Sasuke nodded, fully agreeing.

The Land of Fields, the underground base of Otogakure Village.

After bandaging his hands, Orochimaru sat down opposite Sasuke: "Sorry to have kept you waiting, Sasuke-kun."

"These injuries are not easy to deal with."

Sasuke said nothing, just knocked on the table.

Orochimaru continued, "Since Sasuke-kun is so anxious, I will just get straight to the point."

"Itachi Uchiha is currently in an organization called Akatsuki."

"That organization's base is in the Rain Country, but their operations are widespread."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes.

"It's easy to contact them." Orochimaru poked his head in. "After all, they are a mercenary organization. All we have to do is go to the exchange office and assign them a mission."

"Anyway, Sasuke, your goal is just to find them, right?"

Orochimaru paused: "As for Uchiha Itachi."

"Since you have already awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, you should be well aware of the power of these eyes."

"Itachi is very strong."

"He is very good at illusions, but it's not that difficult for you with your eyes."

Sasuke said softly: "How does my current ability compare to his?"

"I'm not sure." Orochimaru shook his head, "Itachi's ability is very restraining to me, and Sasuke-kun, you have never fought me seriously."

"but"

"Want to become stronger?"

"Maybe once you become stronger you'll have a better chance of dealing with Itachi."

He licked his lips, his eyes greedy and hot.

"Want to give it a try, Sasuke-kun?"

“No need to practice.”

Sasuke asked, "Don't you need to practice?"

"Yes." Orochimaru nodded and paused for a moment, "Sasuke-kun, have you heard of Sage Mode?"

Sasuke shook his head.

"That is a very powerful ability." Orochimaru smiled, "Jiraiya has heard of it, right?"

Sasuke nodded.

Of course, he had heard of this name. He was one of the three ninjas along with Orochimaru and was very respected in Konoha.

"He is very good at Sage Mode." Orochimaru went on to introduce, "When he doesn't use this ability, he is no match for me, but when he uses Sage Mode, he can defeat me."

"And the ability I'm talking about that doesn't require training is related to the Sage Mode."

"As long as you plant a seal that stores natural energy, you can mobilize natural energy just like in Sage Mode even if you don't know how to do it."

"This is an ability that even Itachi doesn't have."

Weasels won'tSasuke's heart skipped a beat.

I have become very strong now. In addition to having the same eyes as Uchiha Itachi, I also have the power of the god of death. Logically speaking, I should be able to defeat Uchiha Itachi now.

But it would certainly be better if we could become stronger.

Especially this way of becoming stronger without practicingThis means you don't have to wait.

"What do you want from me?" Sasuke considered for a moment and nodded.

There is never any pie falling from the sky.

Where there is demand, there must be a price to pay.

"Sasuke-kun, you said you could see souls?" Orochimaru paused and glanced across Sasuke's eyes.

It happened suddenly, and his desire for Sasuke's body had not completely disappeared.

Young, talented, and almost there.

he wants!Especially after the most basic treatments showed no improvement in his hands, he became even more eager.

Can.He is very aware of reality.

Soul snatching, I have no advantage at all.

Rather than both sides suffering losses, it is better to win-win, even though you may win less.

Sasuke nodded.

This is his ability as the God of Death.

Orochimaru poked his head out and asked eagerly, "Can you heal my hands?"

Sasuke tilted his head: "I'm not sure, but we can try."

Orochimaru nodded: "Please."

Sasuke stood up and walked over to him.

"Kaido" is a very niche ghost art, and basically only members of the 4th Division know how to learn it. Sasuke does not have a deep knowledge of it, but as a member of the 2nd Division, he often has solo missions, and if he gets injured, it is very necessary to know some basic Kaido to deal with emergencies.

butEven for the god of death, a broken limb is a serious injury.

Not to mention that Orochimaru was still physically restrained.

Sasuke wasn't sure whether the low-level Kaido techniques he knew would be effective.

The Word Spirit chanted, and green light surged from his hands, covering Orochimaru's arms.

Orochimaru's expression gradually relaxed.

The pain subsided.

That "unforgettable" feeling is gradually fading away.

efficient!

But soon, Sasuke took his hands away: "There is no way to replace your hands."

Orochimaru felt lost.

"However, I have healed the wound on your soul." Sasuke continued, "At least you won't feel pain anymore."

Orochimaru lowered his head: "Not even the Mangekyō?"

“I can only take it back.”

Sasuke ignored him and just waved his hand: "Then let's get started quickly, the natural energy seal you mentioned."

Orochimaru called out, "Wait a minute, Sasuke-kun."

Sasuke looked at him, his brows furrowed.

"Let's make a few more deals." Orochimaru licked his lips, "After you kill Uchiha Itachi, his Sharingan can be given to you."

"Wishful thinking." Sasuke interrupted him with a cold tone, "Don't covet the eyes of the Uchiha clan."

"Do you want to die, Orochimaru?"

Orochimaru paused and tilted his head: "You can't use those eyes."

Sasuke looked cold.

Orochimaru added: "Since your eyes don't work, how about the techniques you have mastered?"

"It seems to be different from ordinary ninjutsu. It does not require hand seals, but words?"

Sasuke sneered: "You see it clearly, you want it?"

"But what else can you give?"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "And the information about Akatsuki."

"Itachi is an important cadre of that organization. If you want to kill him, you will inevitably come into conflict with that organization."

"They have many experts who are no less skilled than me."

Sasuke said calmly: "If it's just guys like you, there doesn't seem to be any need to know more."

Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, and after a while he reacted and laughed out loud: "You underestimated me, Sasuke-kun."

"It's just that the Sharingan is very restrained against people like me."

“Those people are not like me.”

Sasuke looked at Orochimaru, thought for a while, and nodded: "Okay."

Kidō is a technique that one has already mastered.

There will be no substantial loss if you give away what you have. There is no reason to disagree with this kind of transaction which benefits yourself and does not incur losses.

Orochimaru took out the scroll he had prepared long ago.

Sasuke wrote it on the spot.

The deal was concluded, and the next one followed, where Orochimaru placed a curse on him.

For ordinary people, this is a test of life and death, but for a being as powerful as Sasuke, the threat posed by the erosion of the curse seal is insignificant, and the curse seal is almost smoothly implanted on his body.

At the same time, in Konoha Village.

Inside the Ninja School Shelter.

"What did you say, Sasuke became a traitor?" Naruto widened his eyes, in disbelief, and shouted exaggeratedly.

Kakashi waved his hands and sighed helplessly: "Don't be so loud, this kind of thing is not suitable for others to know."

"I'm looking for you because you're the people closest to him in the ninja school, and I want to find out more about the situation."

"Did he behave in any suspicious way while at the Ninja School?"

"Or in other words, is there anything that is not in line with what a normal student should do?"

Haruno Sakura's eyes widened, and she didn't come back to her senses until Kakashi finished speaking.

I haven't heard from Sasuke in a long time.

Since I failed the testIt was as if Sasuke had disappeared from the face of the earth.

She also went to the old place of the Uchiha clan to look for Sasuke, but never found him.

I didn't expect that after finally hearing information about Sasuke again, it would turn out to be like this.Sasuke became a ninja and also an ANBU.

Now he has even defected from Konoha and is hanging out with the guy who killed the Third Hokage.

butHaruno Sakura immediately shook her head and said without hesitation: "No, Sasuke-kun has always been very normal and has never done anything out of the ordinary."

Don't say she really doesn't have it. Even if she does, she will say no without hesitation.

Naruto crossed his arms, thinking hard, "There are a lot of things wrong."

"We're obviously the same age, but it's weird how strong he is, to be as powerful as Kakashi-sensei."

"He has an ugly face, but girls like him so much."

"Also, and, he has no friends just like me, but he obviously has a lot of people who like him. Others will give him food, but I won't."

Kakashi listened, sighed, and fell in expression, "Naruto, these are not the things I'm talking about that are wrong."

"Have you come into contact with anyone who is not from the village?"

"Or deliberately ask people for information that students shouldn't know."

Naruto frowned and shook his head: "No."

"Sasuke is a very boring person. After school he goes home and stays at his house. He doesn't come out to play."

"I've never seen the things you're talking about, Kakashi-sensei."

Kakashi nodded.

There's none?Does that mean Sasuke hadn't contacted Orochimaru yet during his time at the Ninja School?

Or, could it be that Sasuke had already started contacting Orochimaru at that time, but it was seamless from the beginning and left no traces.

It is still difficult to get any useful information from the mouths of ninja school students.

"That's it." Kakashi waved his hand and was about to leave.

Haruno Sakura spoke up, and Naruto spoke up at the same time, both of them said in unison: "Wait a minute, Kakashi-sensei."

"What's wrong?" Kakashi paused.

If it was just Haruno Sakura who spoke, he could just pretend he didn't hear it.

But Naruto's words.It's still worth wasting some of his time.

"Did Sasuke really betray you?" Naruto asked eagerly.

Kakashi nodded.

"Why is this happening? He's already a ninja, and a very powerful one at that." Naruto was lost and puzzled. He didn't understand the term "Anbu" and didn't know what those guys did.

But he is so mysterious, he must be a very powerful ninja.

They all became ninjas and became very powerful people.

If it's your own wordsI will not leave Konoha. I have already been recognized by the village.

Kakashi shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it has something to do with that man."

Naruto tilted his head, "That man?"

"Is that what Sasuke said?" Haruno Sakura immediately recalled.

Kakashi smiled and patted Naruto on the head: "Why are you asking this?"

"I must become a ninja!" Naruto clenched his fists and said firmly, "And bring Sasuke back."

"I want to ask him why he did this!"

He was angry.

It's so hateful that Sasuke got something that I really wanted so easily and threw it away so easily.

Why don't you cherish it?

Kakashi was stunned and looked at Naruto: "Do you want to get Sasuke back?"

"Of course!" Naruto tilted his head and glanced at the pink-haired girl beside him, "Sakura must think so too."

Haruno Sakura nodded: "Yes."

Kakashi patted Naruto's head again: "Then come on, Sasuke is very strong now. If you don't work harder, you won't be able to catch up with him."

He paused.

Naruto nodded seriously, feeling excited.

He began to imagine the future.If I could bring Sasuke back and bring back the "Uchiha clan" that is so welcomed by the village, I would definitely be recognized by the village and become a hero of the village.

Sakura will definitely be very happy, and might even be willing to go on a date with me, or even take the next step.

And that stinky guy Sasuke.

Be sure to give him a good punch.

Land of Fields, underground base.

Sasuke walked out of the basement, having changed his clothes. He was no longer dressed like a ninja, but in a kimono with his Zanpakuto tucked behind his back.

"Congratulations, Sasuke-kun." Orochimaru was waiting at the door, greeting him, "Would you like to try out your new ability?"

Sasuke looked at him: "Are you my opponent?"

"Of course not, I have prepared a batch for you." Orochimaru shook his head and looked at another underground training ground.

Sasuke chuckled and nodded.

Konoha.

Two figures appeared on the village wall.

One is standing and the other is half sitting.

"It's really disgusting." The man with the shark face tutted and shook his head, "Even the Hokage is dead. Konoha has suffered a heavy loss this time."

The other man didn't respond.

"The Sunagakure released the tailed beast directly in Konoha." Shark Face continued, "Almost half of the village was destroyed."

"but."

"What are we doing here?"

Itachi Uchiha then responded: "Let's take a look at the state of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. If the opportunity is right, we can kidnap him directly."

Shark looked at him.

"The leader has agreed." Uchiha Itachi tilted his head.

Shark Face said “Oh” and came down in response.

"Let's go." Uchiha Itachi waved his hand and led him into the village.

The two of them made a simple disguise, only wearing a hat on their heads, but this decoration was of no use. They still clashed with the Konoha ninjas and fought at the entrance of the village. After injuring three people, they left in a cool manner.

Outside Konoha Village.

"This is amazing news." Shark Face's eyes sparkled and his tone was excited, "Your brother also betrayed Konoha."

"It really looks like you."

Uchiha Itachi's face was gloomy: "Really?"

"Konoha didn't keep him, and it seems like he has grown to a certain extent."

"Do you want to look for him?" Shark Face poked his head out and asked teasingly.

Uchiha Itachi nodded: "Find him and see if those eyes are ready to be harvested."

At the border of the Fire Nation, in an underground gold exchange.

Sasuke raised his hand and threw out a stack of silver bills: "I want to issue a mission."

"Hunting Uchiha Sasuke."

"We need someone from Akatsuki to take the mission."
