Chapter 135: In the
Hokage's office, the Third Generation quickly received Anko's report about Orochimaru. The Third Generation was not surprised about Orochimaru's appearance, because Itachi had informed the Third Generation before.
What really alarmed the third generation was another report that followed this report.
One tail went berserk!
"What's going on?"
Sandai slammed the table, stood up, and said to the ANBU in front of him.
"Are you sure Ichibi went berserk?"
Anbu said immediately.
"Yes, Hokage-sama, after I noticed it, I rushed towards you immediately."
The third generation frowned. He didn't know what happened, but since Ichibi was running rampant now, he didn't have time. After giving Sandai time to think, he immediately spoke.
"Go and inform Kakashi and the others to start the plan in advance! The target has been changed from Orochimaru to the One-Tailed One! By the way, send someone to urge the Fourth Kazekage on the road and ask him to rush to Konoha to help suppress the One-Tailed One." "Yes
. !"
The ANBU responded, and then disappeared from the spot.
After learning that Orochimaru was going to invade Konoha, the third generation quietly discussed a response plan with Kakashi and the others. Many jounin would be on guard during the chunin exams. Once Orochimaru showed up, there would immediately be a war. A large-scale encirclement and suppression campaign against Orochimaru.
However, what the Third Generation didn't expect was that before Orochimaru, one tail actually jumped out to cause trouble. In this case, the power prepared before could only be used to deal with one tail.
The third generation walked around the Hokage's office with his hands behind his back, feeling uneasy the entire time.
"Is it possible that Orochimaru was responsible for One-Tail's rampage?"
This possibility is very high. If Orochimaru wants to deal with Konoha, it is a basic operation to use all available power.
Just, why? It's too early. The Chunin Exam before us has only reached the second round. Logically speaking, although this stage is quite suitable for hands-on practice, the most suitable stage for taking action is the third exam in the near future.
At that time, most of the Konoha ninjas were gathered together, and everyone was focused on watching the game, so their defensiveness would be relatively low. If you attack at that time, you can completely catch them all, leaving Konoha with no chance to react.
No matter how you look at it, the third exam is the best time to take action. If Orochimaru was the one responsible for Ichibi's rampage, then why did Orochimaru take action in advance?
News leaked? The only possibility that the Third Generation can think of is that Konoha learned about Orochimaru's invasion of Konoha and Orochimaru knew about it. In this way, it makes sense for Orochimaru to take action in advance and catch Konoha off guard. .
"Unlikely."
However, the next second, the third generation denied this speculation. The news of Orochimaru's invasion of Konoha only circulated among several high-level officials in Konoha. Although they all have their own dirty deeds, they are all really for Konoha. Ye considered it impossible to tell Orochimaru the news.
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a reason. Sandai always felt uneasy, so he decided to go to the scene in person!
Itachi, wearing an Akatsuki robe and a bamboo hat, walked on the street and looked in the direction of the Death Forest with some surprise.
In that direction, a huge amount of chakra emerged.
"That's it."
Itachi pressed down on his bamboo hat, quickened his pace, and walked towards the forest of death.
This huge amount of chakra, this inexplicable feeling of uneasiness, Itachi once had a similar feeling, and the name of that incident was - the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
It seems that the tailed beast went berserk!
[Could it be that the Mirror Man and the others took action? However, now is probably not the best time to take action. 】
Itachi also had the same doubt as the third generation. If he wanted to invade Konoha, it would definitely be the third exam. It is best to act when all the people are gathered together. Then they can catch them all in one fell swoop and be greatly weakened in the first time. The strength of Konoha.
[I hope the third generation can handle it properly. 】
Itachi knew that the third generation of Orochimaru and Kagami's advance action must not have been expected. However, Itachi could no longer help the third generation. No matter how he helped Konoha in secret, On the surface, Itachi was Konoha's enemy. , it is impossible to blatantly help Konoha.
Itachi is going to the Forest of Death now, not to stop Mirror Man and Orochimaru, nor to help Mirror Man and Orochimaru. The real purpose of Itachi's trip is to protect Sasuke.
In front of the giant tailed beasts, Sasuke is now too weak. If he is accidentally involved in the battle of the tailed beasts, he will only die.
In the forest of death.
Obito looked at the Five Elements Seal on Naruto's belly with a gloomy look. Because of this seal, it would be impossible for Obito to completely release the Kyuubi for a while.
If time drags on and people from Konoha arrive, Obito will lose his chance.
"Damn Konoha!"
Obito cursed in a low voice.
Now he could only control the Kyuubi in Naruto's body and attack the seal with all his strength. At the same time, Obito reduced the strength of the seal a little outside so that more of the Kyuubi's chakra could flow out.
It was impossible to completely release the Kyuubi, but Obito could still make Naruto go berserk.
After a while.
Obito stood up, sneered, and disappeared in a whirlpool.
What would Konoha do if Kagami showed the ability to release the Nine-Tails? We will definitely destroy the Mirror Man with all our strength!
Yes, Obito did not intend to stand up and admit the "credit" for releasing the Kyuubi this time. Just like the last Kyuubi Rebellion, the "credit" for releasing the Kyuubi was given to the Uchiha clan, accelerating the destruction of Uchiha. process.
This time, it was given to the Mirror Man, so that Konoha and the Mirror Man would continue to fight to the death.
After Obito left, a large amount of red chakra poured out of Naruto's body and gradually enveloped Naruto's body.
On the other side of the forest of death.
Kagami and Orochimaru walked leisurely towards the exit of the Death Forest. Suddenly, a red beam of light suddenly surged from behind them, which was very bright.
Several people stopped at the same time. It was difficult not to notice such terrifying chakra.
Mirror Man and Orochimaru turned around at the same time, and their expressions became ugly.
Mirror Man looked at Orochimaru.
"Did you do it?"
Orochimaru immediately objected.
"How is it possible? Even if I have to rely on the power of a tailed beast, I will borrow the power of one tail at most. I will not touch a tailed beast as strong as the nine-tails. What's more, I just used the Five Elements Seal to strengthen the nine-tails. Seal."
Mirror Man couldn't help but frowned. According to his only memory, the Nine-Tails rampage should be caused by Naruto being greatly stimulated.
However, it stands to reason that even if he goes berserk, it will not be able to reach the level where a pillar of light appears soaring into the sky. At this time, the seal of the Kyuubi is still very strong, and Orochimaru has just strengthened the seal. Even if he goes berserk, he will be able to die. , the appearance of a tailed beast coat is the end, it is impossible to have such a large amount of chakra.
unless
The mirror man's frown deepened.
Unless Naruto's rampage was intentional, someone artificially weakened the seal, and then used some method to channel the Nine-Tails' chakra, causing Naruto to rampage.
