Konoha Sheriff

Looking at the dark golden giant sword swinging down from the air, Hashirama, who had been concentrating on trying to quickly restore the debris in the sky to his body, smiled and let go of his hands.

The moment he was split into two by the giant sword, Zhu Jian showed a pleased smile to Beichen in the distance:

"Uchiha, you really have an incredible junior. Boy, the future of Konoha will be protected by you and Tsuna!"

"must!"

Beichen nodded solemnly, and then inserted the giant sword wrapped with sealing runes into Zhu Jian's chest.

The moment the tip of the knife came into contact with Hashirama's body, the sealing runes on it were transferred to Hashirama's broken body bit by bit, as if guided.

When the runes covered Hashirama's body, Hashirama's face was completely shattered, revealing his original appearance as a sacrifice.

"Big brother..."

In the distance, Tobirama looked at the sealed elder brother. After hesitating for a moment, a shallow smile finally appeared on his face:

"Boy, although I am still hostile to Uchiha, now that my elder brother has said so and I am dead, the future of Konoha can only be left in the hands of you and Tsunade.

Seeing as Tsunade is the descendant of Hashirama and I, if you can help her a little more, please take care of her. "

After Tobirama said this, there was no need for Beichen to swing his giant sword at him, and his body surface quickly glowed with a faint white light.

Tobirama's soul broke free from it and slowly flew high into the sky, while the body left behind by Tobirama fell to the ground weakly, and became the original appearance of a living sacrifice like Hashirama's body.

After Tobirama's soul rose into the air, Sansho Hanzo and the Third Seal who were fighting with Shisui followed closely behind, and the soul slowly rose into the air until it completely disappeared.

"Beichen...what exactly is this?"

Zhi Shui, who was in a daze, turned to look at Beichen and asked in confusion.

Beichen canceled Susanoo's body surface, moved his body and said:

"Should it be that Orochimaru took the initiative to cancel the Earth Reincarnation and found that there was no hope of winning and directly chose to run away? It was a wise choice."

"Then us?"

"Continue to search, it's best to find him out. If you can't, then turn to look for Hashirama cells. The real purpose of our coming here is exactly for that, isn't it?"

Probably because he relaxed physically and mentally after the battle with Hashirama, Beichen's desire for Orochimaru's life was not as intense as before.

That guy really deserves to die if he wants to plot, but the cost of killing him is not that high. In addition, if the subsequent four battles still break out like in the original work, Konoha and others will have to look for Orochimaru's help again.

So, let me spare your life for the time being. If you are not willing to cooperate honestly in the future, it will not be too late to kill him!

…………

Let's move the time forward slightly by 2 minutes.

Yinyin Village, in the underground laboratory.

When the vibrations and roars above gradually dissipated, Kabuto looked at Orochimaru with a horrified face and said:

"Lord Orochimaru, the First Hokage..."

"I know."

Because he was using Tong Cao's seal, Orochimaru actually saw the scene of Beichen and Hashirama fighting.

Recalling the thunder that seemed to tear the world apart, and the domineering Susanoo, who had lost his hands, Orochimaru, who could no longer make a fist, vomited snake nobuko, and his long snake eyes intertwined. He looked angry and confused.

He was not angry at Beichen for almost killing him, but angry at Beichen for actually becoming stronger again!

It had only been a few days since the last time the Fourth Raikage and the Fourth Raikage teamed up to deal with him?

At best, it only takes three to five days!

This guy Uchiha Beichen has become stronger again!

I couldn't help but take out the Thunder Release, which I had never used before against the Fourth Raikage. Even the level of Susanoo's control was even more exaggerated.

As a scientist who has studied ninjutsu for more than 50 years and is dedicated to uncovering the truth of the ninja world, Orochimaru's insight couldn't be more acute.

He can be 100% sure that Uchiha Beichen has become stronger again.

In just three to five days, another leap in strength was achieved.

This terrifying speed of improvement deeply hurt Orochimaru, who was extremely proud of his heart.

It doesn't make sense, nor should it.

How old is Uchiha Beichen this year?Not yet 20 years old!

Before he was 20 years old, he surpassed him in strength and was regarded as a genius. Before he was 20 years old, he had forced himself into the embarrassing situation he is now. Before he was 20 years old, he had easily broken through the 20-year barrier that had stood above him. ceiling.

At this moment, Orochimaru's mentality resonated with that of his mentor, the Third Hokage.

They were angry because of Beichen's talent and bloodline.

But after the anger, there was more confusion.

Seeing the scene of Uchiha Beichen crushing the wooden dragon and killing Senju Hashirama with his sword, Orochimaru doubted himself for the first time.

With such a powerful and talented Uchiha Beichen, is it possible that he really has a chance to defeat him in the future?

Some people say that growth is the process of gradually accepting one's own mediocrity.

Orochimaru had always scorned this in the past, thinking it was just an excuse for losers to comfort themselves, thinking that as long as they worked hard, they would be able to break the ceiling above their heads.

Because of this belief, Orochimaru reached the top of the ninja world as a civilian ninja.

Because of this belief, when he was told by the White Snake Immortal of Longdi Cave that he had no potential to practice immortal arts, he did not choose to feel sorry for himself, but instead chose to study curse seals similar to immortal arts.

Because of this belief, he transformed himself into a terrifying monster, just to break the ceiling and pursue the truth he longed for.

But now, after seeing what happened to Uchiha Beichen, Orochimaru was at a loss.

He found that compared with Uchiha Beichen, he seemed to be extremely mediocre.

In the understanding of the older generation like him, Senju Hashirama is a being who perseveres to reach the top of the ninja world, and is someone worthy of spending his whole life chasing and then trying to surpass.

But now?

Uchiha Beichen, who was less than 20 years old, easily told him that Hashirama was not the so-called strongest.

Even though he might not even be half as strong as his original self in the state of filth reincarnation, the previous battle had also exceeded the limit of his imagination.

He couldn't think of what to do to surpass Uchiha Beichen.

Orochimaru fell into confusion when he thought that it might take him 60 years, or even the first half of a year, to reach the level that Beichen could reach when he was less than 20 years old.

"Lord Orochimaru, what should we do next?"

Finally, Kabuto's voice broke Orochimaru's thoughts.

Orochimaru hesitated, and finally said this sentence from his mouth:

"Remove the filthy soil reincarnation, Kabuto, we...it's time to leave here."

Orochimaru feels that he needs time. He probably needs a long period of time to think about the problem that has been bothering him, and then decide whether he should take revenge or something else in the future...
