Naruto God Tree Arrives

Chapter 977 Sarutobi’s hesitation and blue streamer

The situation on the field changed too fast. Facing the various secret techniques of the root masters, the ANBU ninjas were defeated almost immediately. Only a few elite jounin were still struggling to persevere under the siege of the root, but they persisted. Not too long.

Sarutobi, who was guarded in the center by the guards, could not spare his hands to rescue him.Because Orochimaru's momentum is always locked on him, once he reveals a flaw, the opponent is likely to take the opportunity to release a thunderous strike.

Sarutobi is not really afraid of being attacked. Although Orochimaru is stronger than expected, it is impossible to defeat him in a short time.

Even if they are both at the Kage level, there is still a gap in combat power. Most of the Kage level experts have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, Orochimaru is best at ninjutsu, but he has some disadvantages in illusion and taijutsu. As best as one can imagine, at most he is at the level of a jounin.Sarutobi's title is "Doctor of Ninjutsu". He is not only proficient in the five attributes and has mastered thousands of ninjutsu passed down by Konoha, but he is also at the Kage level in terms of physical skills and illusions.

Like Roeshu, he has taken a broad route and has achieved very high achievements. He has almost no shortcomings. Once a shadow-level strongman of the same level fights against him, he can always find a suitable way to target the enemy's shortcomings. Defeat the enemy and win.Therefore, he is the top existence among shadow-level powerhouses, and is even called the "Strongest Hokage".

Although Sarutobi is now over 50 years old and his physical fitness has declined, he still maintains most of his strength and is even one step ahead of Orochimaru. That's why he had so much confidence in taking down Orochimaru before. pill.

The reason why Sarutobi didn't take action was because once he did, he would be entangled by Orochimaru immediately, and the group of them would completely lose the chance to break out, and the battle between shadow-level powerhouses would be very destructive. Large, it is easy to cause accidental damage to ANBU who have lost their combat effectiveness.

In addition, for some reason, the roots did not kill the ANBU members. Now the defeated ANBU only lost their combat effectiveness, and no one died.

Precisely because he still retained a sliver of hope in his heart, Sarutobi was hesitant to take the initiative and completely detonate the war.

Fortunately, the efforts of the ANBU guards were not completely ineffective. After fighting and retreating, they had already exited the laboratory door and entered the narrower metal passage outside the door.

This kind of terrain is easier to defend. The remaining members of the ANBU Guards are trying their best to intercept the passage, but Sarutobi only needs to rush out of the passage behind to evacuate safely.

"Hokage-sama, please leave quickly"

But despite the ANBU captain's loud urging, Sarutobi stood hesitantly.As the Hokage, he knew the true identity of these Anbu guards very well. These people were all young jounin of the new generation. If they were to be folded here, it would cause huge losses to Konoha.In particular, one of them has a very special identity, and if something unexpected happens, it will definitely cause huge turmoil.

"Hokage-sama, please go first. We can't escape anymore. You must expose Danzo's conspiracy."

The ANBU captain noticed Sarutobi's hesitation and spoke again to persuade.

After his reminder, Sarutobi also realized that Danzo obviously had a huge conspiracy now. If he, the Hokage, died here, the consequences would be even more serious.

Just when Sarutobi was about to grit his teeth and break through to the rear passage, a member of the Roots held an ANBU that had lost its combat effectiveness and stopped in front of him. He threatened in a sinister tone: "Hokage-sama, if you choose to evacuate, then you I’m afraid the consequences for these subordinates will be miserable.”

"Hokage-sama, please leave quickly.

"Leave me alone" the anbu who was being held hostage said weakly.

"Shut up" the root member stabbed the hostage's chest hard with his kunai.

"Ah" The ANBU could no longer use the iron block to defend himself. A hole was immediately stabbed in his lungs, and the severe pain in his internal organs made him scream in agony.

"Hehehe" the root member slowly pulled out the kunai and said with an evil smile: "I can't help it anymore. Do you think death is the worst result? Sometimes living is more painful.

Actually, I’m not very good at this aspect. If you are given to Lord Orochimaru as a test subject, you will understand what it means to be worse than dead."

The ANBU members couldn't help but think of the blurry figure tied to the operating table just now, and couldn't help showing a look of fear in their eyes as they looked helplessly at the Hokage opposite.

Seeing this look, Sarutobi was shaken again, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

In the center of the laboratory, Orochimaru had a clear view of Sarutobi's reaction. He showed a sarcastic smile: "Old man, this soft-hearted character is your biggest weakness."

While Sarutobi was hesitating, the remaining ANBU were defeated and fell, with only the ANBU captain still struggling to hold on.

"Hokage-sama, there is no need to worry. As ANBU, we have already made preparations for sacrifice. Please leave quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

The ANBU captain's tone was full of urgency and pleading.

"Haha, boy, you should take care of yourself." A root standing opposite him sneered: "Let's take action together to get rid of this last one."

The surrounding root masters took action one after another:

"Nano poisonous insect"

"Mind and Body Transformation"

"Shadow Control"

"Five Senses Control"

Various secret techniques are fired at the target. Even a shadow-level expert will be threatened by this kind of attack. The dark force captain who is under siege seems to be in danger.

But the next moment, a sudden change occurred in the field, and the ANBU captain's whole body flashed with a violent blue light, and at the same time, an ominous chakra aura erupted.

The root masters who participated in the siege lost control of the secret arts. All the nano-level poisonous insects of the Yuru clan died instantly, and the shadow control of the Nara clan was also defeated by another energy.

"what happened"

"My sense of magic is gone"

Those who used ninjutsu-type secret arts just lost control of the secret arts and cried out in surprise, while other users of illusion and spiritual arts suffered even more backlash and fell to the ground with "thuds" and "thuds" , unconscious, just like the ANBU members who were attacked by them before.

Just when all the root masters were panicking because the secret technique failed, the ANBU captain had already launched a fierce counterattack. He turned into a blue light and flashed through the crowd quickly. The surrounding root masters who participated in the siege let out a cry. Hum.

When the blue stream of light stopped, more than a dozen people around him fell to the ground. Only the ANBU captain was left standing at the entrance of the passage holding a short blade and holding a root force captain hostage.
