Naruto: Changing Fate

Chapter 281 Head-on confrontation!Naruto VS Orochimaru! 【superior】

Just when Nonoyu and others, under Naruto's suggestion and persuasion, decided to divide their troops into two groups and began to take separate actions...

On the other side, Naruto, who was pursued by Orochimaru following the guidance of the special mark, estimated that the distance was almost close.In front of Orochimaru's suspicious eyes, he not only paused and continued to escape, but also held his head in his hands, leisurely waiting for Orochimaru to approach.

As the saying goes, every time you take a bite, you gain wisdom... Not long ago, Orochimaru, who almost lost his life in the Rasengan attack of Naruto, whom he despised, not only completely abandoned his superiority and contempt.Intentionally or unintentionally, Naruto's danger level was raised from an ordinary jounin to a level equal to his own!

After all, if nothing else...the special mark left by the Shogun clone as evidence was enough for Orochimaru to know that Naruto was the new Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki.Furthermore, before Naruto could use the power of the Nine Lamas to enter the tailed beast state to amplify himself, he was already in such a difficult and dangerous situation.If Naruto were to take another chance and enter the state of tailed beast transformation, and even use the tailed beast jade directly on himself without any care...

Even though Orochimaru has many ways to save his life, after he had previously used the Orochimaru-style Substitution Technique and consumed a lot of his own chakra, he would probably be a little powerless...

Actually stopped?What tricks is this brat doing again...

Because of this, even after seeing Naruto stop, Orochimaru still quickly approached without slowing down at all.But when he arrived and stopped in front of Naruto, he acted instinctively on guard, keeping a considerable distance from Naruto, looking at each other from afar.Then, his slender snake eyes narrowed slightly, while he looked suspiciously at Naruto, who seemed to be full of flaws, while he muttered something to himself.

This posture... is he planning to use the power of the nine-tailed demon fox?If he is indeed as described in Zetsu's information, he is the new Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki who can use the tailed beast jade.Then this situation is a bit tricky...

As he spoke, Orochimaru had already given up on the idea of ​​taking a preemptive strike and using the sealing technique to restrict Naruto from borrowing the power of the tailed beasts due to the fact that the five elements sealing technique had failed previously.Then, as he and Naruto looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, Orochimaru, who was originally angry, slowly calmed down.Instead, he began to secretly choose reasonable tactical arrangements based on the information he knew at hand.

Um?I thought that after stopping, Orochimaru would be eager to attack... It should be said that he is worthy of being one of the Sannin of Konoha?The ability to control one's own emotional fluctuations is really powerful.

At the same time, Naruto, who seemed unsuspecting, responded to Orochimaru's suspicious and wary gaze with a careless and lazy look.While secretly sneaking into the sealed space while distracted, he lay on the head of the Nine Lamas, muttering and complaining.

This is going to be troublesome... Compared to the furious Orochimaru, he who keeps a calm head is obviously a more terrifying existence...

Of course, that's what it is said... For Naruto, who has several life-saving trump cards, even if he has the original intention of hiding his personal trump cards, he can't use them to his fullest. He can forcefully suppress Orochimaru's actions with one person's power.But if Naruto is determined to escape, Orochimaru alone really can't do anything to Naruto!So much so that even though he complained repeatedly in words, he didn't feel any nervousness or worry about it in his heart.

Hey, you duplicitous brat... He said that, but I didn’t see you continuing to run?how?You still want to defeat that little guy [Well... Before the strong men of the past were reincarnated and resurrected by the dirty land, in today's Naruto world, Orochimaru can still be called the little guy, and he probably survived for an unknown number of years. The tailed beasts are gone...] No?

Because of this, Nine Lamas, who had already linked their hearts to Naruto and could clearly know what the other was thinking, immediately rolled his eyes and responded to the teasing in an annoyed manner.After a short pause, he continued to close his eyes and pretend to be asleep, but he pretended to be careless and continued speaking awkwardly.

If I really have no other choice, I don’t mind taking advantage of the chaos to take control of your body... After all, as the leader of the nine great tailed beasts, I don’t want to be buried with you, a brat like you!

Um?Hey~

After hearing the awkward response from the Nine Lamas, Naruto was just stunned for a moment, and then with the corners of his mouth raised, he digested and understood the true thoughts of his arrogant old man.The smile in his eyes grew brighter, and he joked softly, half jokingly and half comfortingly.

Nine Lamas, are you... worried about me?

Worry?I'm worried about you big-headed devil!With your scheming mind, if you really plot against me, even two more Orochimaru won't be enough for you, right? !Sometimes I really don’t understand why your parents, who are such upright heroes, gave birth to a son as sinister and cunning as you!

Kurama, who was poked by Naruto, suddenly opened his eyes again and his fur exploded like a cat whose tail was stepped on.Then he bared his teeth and claws, and in order to cover up the panic in his heart, he deliberately responded viciously and complained.

Moreover, you obviously have so many resources, but you always like to show weakness to others... I really don’t know what’s wrong with you, you brat. Doesn’t it feel good to be looked down upon by others?Or is it that your experiences over the past few years have made you like this feeling?

uh-huh?Do you admit that my parents are heroes?Nine Lamas~

...I said you brat...the focus of your attention is definitely wrong, right? !

Hehe, I don’t care, anyway, you said it yourself that my parents are heroes~

While pretending to be relaxed and teasing, Naruto's consciousness gradually returned to his original form after noticing that Orochimaru was preparing to take action due to the closely watched outside consciousness.As a result, Naruto's figure remaining in the sealed space began to gradually fade.

It seems that Orochimaru has not been able to keep his composure... Then, I will take the first step, Kurama, and I will chat with you later.

Are you ready to take action... This time the opponent is not some cat or dog, but a real shadow-level powerhouse...

After hearing Naruto's words, even though he knew that the other party was deliberately changing the subject, Nine Lama, who was originally dissatisfied, slowly calmed down.Furthermore, taking advantage of the convenience of being connected to Naruto's mind, he also noticed Orochimaru's unusual movements and continued speaking word by word with a solemn expression.

Hey, Naruto...if you want power, just ask.When the critical moment comes, you brat, don’t lose face...

Hehe, he also said that you don’t care...ahem——!Um!OK OK!I see!

After hearing the worried words of the Nine Lamas, Naruto, who was about to leave the sealed space completely, was about to subconsciously tease the Nine Lamas again.However, after realizing the powerful pressure of the looming tailed beast of the Nine Lamas, he quickly changed his words out of his own strong desire to survive.Then with a smile on his face, he patted the huge beast head of the nine lamas under him.

Don't worry, Kurama... It's just like what you said. It's just that Orochimaru can't do anything to me for a while... What's more, the current victory conditions of the game are extremely unfair.

Um?unfair?

Orochimaru at the moment, although I don’t know what the reason is, but judging from his course of action, it is obvious that he wants to kill me and then quickly... It seems that the enmity between me and him is definitely not because of me. Killing one of his elephants was as simple as turning into a clone.

As he spoke, Naruto seemed to be complaining repeatedly, but the corners of his mouth gradually rose, revealing a faint and calm smile.Then, at the moment when the body completely dissipated from the sealed space and returned to the original body, he left these words leisurely.

It's a pity that his goal is to kill me... and my goal is just to survive until support arrives, which is enough.

...Hmph, I hope so... It won't be easy to kill you, a cunning brat, in a short while...

After realizing that Naruto's consciousness had completely left, he knew that Naruto, who was preoccupied with dealing with Orochimaru, would no longer have free time to interact with him.But Jiulama was still driven by worries in his heart.While giving a duplicitous warning, intentionally or unintentionally, due to excessive nervousness in his heart, he deeply imprinted his sharp claws into the materialized earth beneath him.

However, you have to remember it, Naruto... Since you said it so lightly, if you accidentally underestimate your enemy and get into trouble, don't expect me to come and wipe your ass!

……

Hmm... After leaving, Lama Nine seemed to have said something else...?

After all the consciousness returns to the original body, control of the body is firmly grasped.Facing the increasingly obvious sense of crisis, Naruto quietly tensed up his muscles, like a cheetah ready to attack, ready to adapt to the situation.While his eyes were firmly locked on Orochimaru's figure, so that he could take in Orochimaru's every move, he muttered to himself.

Well, forget it, now is not the time to care about such things... I am more curious, how will Orochimaru attack?Continue to use the previous group of vipers?Or some other ninjutsu?

Sometimes, I really admire your courage, little guy... That previous counterattack was indeed quite amazing... but from another perspective, it was also very stupid, hopelessly stupid.

While Naruto was frowning, he was constantly guessing about the attack tactics Orochimaru might use.Orochimaru, who had been silent all the time, seemed to look much more relaxed, as if he had made some decision.Then, in front of Naruto's eyes, which looked like a formidable enemy, like an old friend who had known each other for a long time, Youyou opened her mouth, and with her characteristic hoarse and low voice, she took the lead in breaking the long-standing deadlock word by word. .

If at that time, you had not chosen to attack, but had taken advantage of the opportunity that I couldn't find you, and fled away... It's possible that you would have escaped by now, leaving a life behind...

oh?Do you plan to use words to stimulate me, make me feel regretful, and shake my mind?Orochimaru?

After having more contact with old foxes of Danzo's level, Naruto's ability to identify the hidden meanings in words has obviously improved a lot.So much so that after hearing Orochimaru's sudden emotional words, he was stunned for only a moment before he completely reacted.Furthermore, because he was convinced in his heart that Orochimaru had been put into an endlessly embarrassing situation for himself due to unknown reasons, he did not have too many pretentious politeness with others.He then raised his brows slightly and responded with an unceremonious hum.

Hum hum, it's a pity that your rhetoric is absolutely impossible for me!

...He is indeed a young and promising new Kyuubi Jinchuuriki. His ability to see into people's hearts is even better than that of his predecessor...

Naruto's true thoughts were revealed easily, and Orochimaru's regretful face suddenly froze.Then, after his face briefly darkened, he tried his best to maintain a smile while clasping his hands behind his back as he spoke to praise.With the help of his body's obstruction, he formed the seals quietly and in an orderly manner.

However, by saying this... you are just holding on to the hope of escape that was wasted on impulse, aren't you?

Hey, didn’t I already say that?Your rhetoric has no effect on me... Just save your energy, Orochimaru!

Of course, it was impossible for Naruto, who was always watching closely, to be wary of Orochimaru's little move.Then, with the alarm bells ringing in his mind, he thought about the most suitable counterattack method in the current situation.While suppressing the smile on his face, his expression became solemn, as if he was responding to Orochimaru's words, or talking to himself.Completely abandoning the childish tone that he pretended to be, he turned to a steady tone of an adult and continued solemnly.

Yes, when facing a strong enemy, you would use the lives of your companions as bait to save your own life and escape alone... Under normal circumstances, your idea is indeed correct, Orochimaru... but you may not know that. yes……

To me...the lives of my companions are far more important than my own!
