Behind a big tree.
"Sasuke! You... um...."
Seeing that Sasuke stabbed himself, Sakura couldn't help exclaiming immediately.
"He will find us here soon, and we have to run away quickly, or..."
Sasuke didn't answer Sakura's words, but covered Sakura's mouth with one hand to make her quiet.
His attention was on Orochimaru.
This enemy was more terrifying than Zabuza!
At that time, Sasuke was intimidated by Zabuza, but he was still able to resist it.
But the murderous aura this Kusa shinobi released actually caused Sasuke to see his death!
Definitely not an opponent of the same strength!
Sakura, whose mouth was covered by Sasuke, was not excited or happy, and it must have been like this normally, but now she looked at Sasuke even more worriedly.
'It's the first time I've seen Sasuke so nervous.'
Suddenly, a shadow hung down from the side of Sakura .
"Naruto... Could it be that he was also stopped? Otherwise, in this situation, he would have definitely appeared."
Sasuke guessed that since he faced only one opponent, the other two could have been fighting with Naruto.
"Even Naruto can't defeat them easily...so such a powerful guy, why is he still Genin? Or did they come to Konoha for another purpose!?"
Sasuke was almost half right.
The other half of Orochimaru's purpose was himself.
"Woooo... Sasuke! Snake!!"
Sakura pushed Sasuke's hand and shouted.
"what!"
Boom!
The big snake slammed into the place where Sasuke had just been.
"I let my guard down...Damn it!"
Roar!
The giant snake had a big mouth, showing sharp fangs, biting Sasuke flying in the air.
"Fire Style·Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

Sasuke formed a seal quickly, and the blazing flames, or a fire dragon bigger than a serpent, swallowed it in one bite.
"Fuu! Fortunately, my Chakra control has improved! Otherwise..."
Sasuke landed on the tree trunk, his heart was still beating violently.
The sneak attack of the snake just now scared Sasuke, who was already very nervous.
Boom.
The big snake, whose body was scorched black and even cooked, fell to the ground.
Then, under the horrified gazes of Sasuke and Sakura , the big snake's neck was torn apart suddenly, and the Kusa shinobi got out from inside.
"Nice Fire Style jutsu...really hot."
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue in admiration.
He didn't expect that with Sasuke's Chakra, he could use such a powerful B-level Fire Style ninjutsu.
His heart longed for Sasuke's body more and more.
"Hee hee hee~ As a prey, you can only escape if you are extra careful."
"This guy..."
Sasuke stared.
"I can only hold on for a while, Sharingan!!"
Sasuke shook his hands, took out Kunai, and at the same time activated Sharingan, staring closely at Orochimaru.
"Sakura, I'll hold her back, you go find Naruto!"
"But…"
Sakura didn't expect Sasuke to tell her to run away.
"Go! Don't be an idiot, it will be even harder for me to leave if you are here!"
Sasuke roared, and charged at Orochimaru.
"I understand!" Sakura nodded earnestly and left quickly.
But Orochimaru didn't care about Sakura leaving.
"Hee hee hee, are you so confident that you can fight me? Sasuke-kun~"
"Hmph! Don't underestimate me!"
Swish Swish Swish!
Sasuke shot Kunai while attacking Orochimaru.
"Those eyes... are really beautiful~"
"Besides, your speed and physical skills are also very good, plus the pair of Sharingan that can see through my movements!"
"As expected of Itachi's younger brother~"
The two passed each other across the branches.
Without Orochimaru finding out, Sasuke grabbed the transparent ninja wire in his hand and tied Orochimaru up.
"Hmph, I hope you can continue to survive! Fire Style..."
Sasuke made a hand seal with wire on hands, looked at Orochimaru with a sneer, this was his last Fire Style he could use!
Although Naruto gave him the Chakra fruit which doubled the amount of his Chakra, Sasuke could only use this B-level ninjutsu two times as it consumes a lot of chakra. Although it does not affect his combat power after one use,
If he uses it twice, he will collapse.
"Fire Release: Big Flame Bullet!"
The overwhelming huge flames quickly swallowed Orochimaru under the expression of extreme astonishment.
In order to be able to kill him completely, Sasuke insisted on chakra output for two more seconds.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! "
"He should be dead by now."
After the jutsu ended, Sasuke sat down, sweating profusely, staring at the charred corpse in front of him.
"If that didn't kill him, I can only run away. Fortunately, Sakura has already left, otherwise..."
But suddenly, the charred corpse moved.
Sasuke's heart tightened. Just as he was about to take out another kunai, he found that his ninja bag was empty.
"Damn it!"
However, Sasuke immediately discovered that the corpse did not move.
"Is it an illusion?"
Sasuke took a long breath and felt relieved.
brush!
Suddenly, the corpse raised its head, and a black figure rushed over, biting Sasuke's neck fiercely.
"what!!"
Sasuke could only stare wide-eyed, watching the black shadow that had reached the side of his face, unable to move.
Snap!
But a hand suddenly stretched out and placed itself on Sasuke's neck, and the black shadow bit the hand that came out.
[Detected the curse seal of heaven, do you want to store it?]
[A piece of Orochimaru's soul fragment was detected, do you want to store it?]
The system gave Naruto timely reminders.
"Save it."
brush!
Orochimaru's face retracted, and Orochimaru's body appeared.
This was his life-saving trick: Snake style Body Replacement Technique.
This proves that Sasuke's Fire Style had killed Orochimaru once.
"What do you want to do to my people?"
Naruto asked while standing next to Sasuke, looking at Orochimaru .
"You bastard... you're finally back."
Sasuke was completely relaxed when he heard Naruto's voice.
As long as Naruto appears, no matter what situation they encountered, they could escape unscathed.
Sasuke didn't know when this idea came to his mind.
"Ah, I've been waiting for a long time. It took a while to deal with those fish."
Naruto laughed.
….
Ignoring Naruto's words. Orochimaru exudes a cold killing intent, looking at Naruto with a cold face.
"...you brat!"
He was very angry now, very angry!
Angry to kill!!
His perfect plan and unexpected attack were actually blocked by a kid.
It was fine if he was blocked and someone else received the curse seal, the problem was that the Heaven's Curse Seal was specially prepared for Sasuke!
But now the wrong person had it!
Now, his plan to capture Sasuke's body was forced to run aground because of Naruto's disruption!
