Late that night, the full moon was in the sky.

Deep in the forest, the moonlight was like silk, covering the earth with a layer of slightly shiny new clothes.

Many animals also took advantage of the night to come out to look for food.

Occasionally, a few wolf howls could be heard, as if they were declaring their territory to other animals.

"Swoosh!!"

Suddenly, a rapid sound of breaking wind broke the original tranquility of the forest.

If you look closer, you can see that a figure is quickly leaping on the branches of the trees.

And just as this figure left, another five figures followed.

The two sides kept a distance in front and behind, chasing each other in the dark forest.

At this time, the figure in front suddenly cursed:

"Here they come again!"

"Which group of people is this?"

"Are you trying to use the human wave tactics to wear me out? A group of guys who don't know how to live or die!"

This figure was Uzumaki Sukuna who left after a battle with Kakashi and the other two.

Looking at Uzumaki Sukuna at this time, his condition seems to be a little bad.

Drops of sweat slowly slid down his forehead.

His originally balanced breathing had already become a little rapid.

Even his face looked much paler.

This was not because he was physically exhausted, but because there was something wrong with his physical condition.

Since the fight between him and Kakashi, he felt that his body was about to lose control, and he went offline and returned his body to Naruto.

However, there were still a large number of Konoha ninjas chasing him.

He could only hold on and continue to control this body to escape, trying to find a safe place and then return his body to Naruto.

Who knew that the pursuers behind him were like a "dog skin plaster", and he couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he tried.

He didn't know which group of people he had encountered when he was approaching behind him.

"It seems that among the reinforcements that appeared behind, there are ninjas who are very good at tracking."

"Otherwise, they wouldn't be chasing so closely."

Uzumaki Sukuna frowned and muttered to himself while sensing the distance of the group behind him.

Even if he was in a bad state, he was confident that he could shake off the pursuers.

Moreover, he himself had no chakra and was difficult to be detected in the dark.

Even so, the other party was still able to catch up, obviously sending out a good player with strong tracking ability.

"Is it the Byakugan of the Hyuga family? Or the bugs of the Aburame family?"

"Or... the sense of smell of the Inuzuka family?"

He secretly guessed in his heart and shook his head.

It didn't matter which family was assisting in the tracking.

What he was thinking about now was how to get rid of the pursuers as soon as possible.

Because he felt more and more that he was about to lose control of this body.

If this continued, it would be bad!

"Swish, swish, swish!"

While he was thinking, the five people behind him had already caught up.

He looked carefully and found that among the group of people, there was a combination of a man and a dog.

"Are they really from the Inuzuka family?"

Uzumaki Sukuna suddenly said.

It is obvious that this group of pursuers did not track him through chakra, but through his remaining smell.

The sense of smell of the Inuzuka clan ninja is already very strong.

At the same time, the other four root members who were chasing him behind him nodded to each other tacitly.

The four of them gathered chakra almost at the same time, and quickly formed seals with their hands to prepare to release ninjutsu.

"Release!"

Seeing this, Uzumaki Sukuna in front had to turn around and instantly launched the technique "Release".

One after another, the slashes were ejected and released at an astonishing speed.

"Bang!!"

The powerful slashes cut and crushed the trees behind on the spot.

Those Root members who were originally preparing to release ninjutsu had to stop and dodge hastily.

But when the smoke and dust produced by the slash dissipated, they looked forward again, and there was no Uzumaki Sukuna.

Uzumaki Sukuna had no desire to fight, and he sped away after releasing the slash.

"Keep chasing!"

"He has such a strong smell of blood, he can't escape!"

The Root member who led the team said indifferently.

The next moment, the five people continued to chase, relying on the Inuzuka clan's keen sense of smell, firmly "bite" and don't let go.

...

Half an hour later.

On the edge of a turbulent river in the forest.

"Splash!"

Uzumaki Sukuna's figure floated up from the bottom of the water.

He looked around cautiously, and after confirming that there was no one around, he slowly walked out of the water to the shore.

Knowing that the other party was tracking by smell, he chose to dive into the water to temporarily cover up the smell on his body.

It turned out to be very effective.

He did not sense any pursuers in the vicinity.

"It's safe for now."

"You can return the body to Naruto..."He leaned against a big rock on the shore, and the feeling of "being offline" in his heart became stronger and stronger.

But before he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, as if he felt something.

"Hiss!!"

The next moment, dozens of poisonous snakes suddenly rushed out from the bushes beside him.

The poisonous snakes swallowed their tongues and twisted their bodies to get closer.

When the poisonous snakes came around him, they hissed and showed their sharp fangs to him, biting him fiercely.

"Release!"

"Puff!!"

Uzumaki Sukuna just raised his right hand with disdain.

The technique "Release" was launched in an instant, and countless slashes cut and killed dozens of poisonous snakes on the spot.

At the same time, Uzumaki Sukuna also looked at the bushes with cold eyes, and said in a cold voice:

"Come out."

"How long do you plan to hide?"

"Swish, swish!"

As soon as Uzumaki Sukuna's voice fell, there was a movement in the bushes.

A figure, with a faint smile on his face, walked out from inside.

The person had long black hair, and half of his face was covered by the bangs in front of his forehead.

He was wearing a white dress and a purple shimenawa rope around his waist.

Especially his eyes, which exuded a light golden color in the dark night.

The pupils were long and long, like the pupils of a snake.

When Uzumaki Sukuna saw the appearance of the person clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank and blurted out:

"Orochimaru?"

Yes.

The person who came was none other than Orochimaru, one of the few people in the ninja world who was truly devoted to scientific research and who had the title of "Three Ninjas of Konoha".

He had not expected to meet Orochimaru here!

This guy was a well-known "pervert"!

On the other hand, Orochimaru said with a surprised look:

"Do you know me?"

"One of the Three Ninjas of Konoha, Orochimaru."

"It's not strange to know you."

Uzumaki Sukuna said coldly.

He glanced at Orochimaru, and then tried:

"If I remember correctly, you should have defected from Konoha."

"What is your purpose in appearing here?"

"And..."

At this point, he looked at the woods on the side again, and said with a very disdainful tone:

"The guy hiding behind, come out too."

"Or do you want me to do it now?"

When Orochimaru heard this, his eyes changed slightly.

Just after Uzumaki Sukuna moved a finger, he quickly raised his hands and said:

"Don't get me wrong! We have no intention of fighting you!"

"Kabuto! Come out!"
