'What sin did I commit in my past life? Why is this happening?'
For a while, only this thought remained in Yuta's mind.
Obviously, he had gone to the dangerous land of rain and nothing happened.
On the contrary, after returning to the land of fire, he met the rebel Orochimaru.
He was also forcibly pulled by Sarutobi Shinnosuke to block Orochimaru together.
It might have been better if the Anbu had just fought Orochimaru directly here.
He's just a Genin after all. If he hid, almost no one would care.
However, Orochimaru led the group of Anbu and Guy away.
He's the only one left here!
"Hohohoho, what a poor child."
Orochimaru took out a Kunai unhurriedly. He licked it with his long tongue, and stared at Yuta with a stern gaze.
According to his expectations, the previous earth clone should be able to buy him about two or three minutes.
It's only been a while now.
What's more, the opponent was just a child, and it wouldn't take much effort to deal with him.
"Let me guess why a kid like you appeared here. You should have bumped into that guy Sarutobi Shinnosuke, and you were probably forcefully pulled over."
Turning his head, Orochimaru understood the situation.
"That fellow Shinnosuke, I'm afraid his eyes have turned red. He probably wants to kill me and get some merit, right?"
"Looks like he doesn't have a brain. Even if he kills me and makes a great contribution, how can he be the Hokage with his meager strength?"
He spoke in a leisurely manner, ignoring Yuta who was on the opposite side.
"Never mind."
Orochimaru shook his head, and killing intent appeared in his eyes.
"How can a brat like you understand what I am saying?"
"I do understand."
While his mind was racing, Yuta opened his mouth.
"He just wants to kill senior and make great achievements, thereby enhancing his prestige and paving the way for becoming the Hokage."
"Oh?"
Orochimaru became interested. He took a closer look at Yuta's appearance, and suddenly recalled something.
"I remember that about half a year ago, there were two first-year little guys of the Uchiha clan who graduated early and became a Genin, one named Uchiha Yuta and the other named named Uchiha Itachi."
"I wonder which one you are?"
"I am Uchiha Yuta."
Yuta spoke slowly, stalling for as much time as possible.
"I have some interesting news on my side. Senior should be interested in this piece of news."
"I went to the Land of Rain on a mission before and heard a rumor by chance."
"Some people say that a mercenary organization named Akatsuki in the Land of Rain has a leader who possesses the legendary Rinnegan."
As the words fell, and Orochimaru's pupils shrank.
Rinnegan? The eyes of the legendary Sage of Six Paths?
Does such a thing really exist?
No... This news was just said by the kid across from him.
That's not right... why would he tell him this?
With Orochimaru's cleverness, he reacted immediately.
"You're telling me this to delay for time and let those Anbu come back?"
"Well, let me think about it, you seem to be thinking more than that."
"You're worried that if you just let me go, or if you run away, you will be blamed by that guy Sarutobi Shinnosuke."
"So, you can't escape, and you can't just let me go. You can only delay for time here."
Thinking of this, Orochimaru's eyes revealed a surprised look.
"What a smart kid, I'm very interested in you, how about it, are you interested in defecting with me?"
Being told the truth, cold sweat dripped down Yuta's forehead.
"Senior is joking."
"Really, what a pity."
Orochimaru sighed, and his eyes instantly became sharp.
"There's still a minute left, and since that's the case, I can only kill you."
Countless alarm bells sounded in Yuta's heart, and a sense of crisis swelled in his mind like a huge red exclamation mark.
He used the Eight Inner Gates without hesitation.
The first gate, Opening Gate, open!
The Second Gate, Gate of Rest, open!
The Third Gate, Gate of Life, open!
His body immediately turned red, his Chakra soared, and an invisible wave of air swept around.
"Eight Inner Gates!"
Orochimaru lost his voice.
Regarding this Forbidden Technique, after the death of Might Dai in battle, all well-informed ninjas of Konoha knew about it.
With the power of a Genin, after the Eight Gates were fully opened, Dai confronted Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen alone and he even killed some of them.
"You have actually learned the Eight Inner Gates, and looking at you, you should have opened the Third Gate."
Orochimaru revealed a fiery look in his eyes.
"I've changed my mind, I'm going to leave with you."
If such an excellent genius stays in Konoha, it would be a pity.
After he takes this kid away, and trains him a little, when the Forbidden Technique of Living Corpse Reincarnation is completed, this kid will be the best vessel for him.
Yuta even opened the Third Gate, and activated the two tomoe Sharingan at the start.
With his current body, he could probably only keep the Third Gate open for a minute.
As long as Guy-sensei and those Anbus come back, he will be safe.
Putting two fingers together in front of the mouth, a large amount of Chakra spewed out.
A huge fire dragon slammed directly towards Orochimaru!
Fire release: Fire Dragon Bullet Technique!
"It seems that what you can use without a hand seal is not just the Great Fireball Technique."
Orochimaru unhurriedly formed some hand seals, and he used an Earth release to block the fire dragon.
The ferocious fire dragon slammed into the wall made by Earth release.
The wall collapsed, and the fire burst into the sky.
"It turns out that you are still thinking of using ninjutsu to provide hints to those idiots, so that they can come this way immediately."
Orochimaru looked at the firelight, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Not only is he talented, he is also very smart, and he is not panicking in the face of a life and death crisis.
It would be a pity for such a genius to be the material for the Living Corpse Reincarnation Technique.
For a time, Orochimaru even had some admiration for Yuta's talent in his heart.
But knowing that the time was running out, Orochimaru didn't delay any longer.
He rushed towards Yuta like a cannonball.
So fast!
Yuta's pupils trembled. Relying on Sharingan's prediction and the speed of Eight Inner Gates' Third Gate, he managed to barely dodge.
This is a seriously injured Orochimaru?
If Orochimaru was in good condition, he would have been killed in seconds with just that one blow.
"Two Tomoe Sharingan, eight years old."
Orochimaru staggered towards Yuta, and he saw Yuta's Sharingan clearly.
The fiery color in his eyes almost overflowed.
Eight years old, Two Tomoe Sharingan, Master of Fire release, Eight Inner Gates.
Such a genius!
Whether he is made a sacrifice to Living Corpse Reincarnation or taken as a subordinate, he must be taken away.
