Naruto: Mission Tsunade – Time for Uncle to Step Up!

Kawaki and the Raikage are fighting fiercely. Meanwhile, Orochimaru on the side is also locked in combat with the Cloud Ninjas.

They're trading blows and the fight is really intense.

The Raikage has brought only a small number of people. Orochimaru counts them and finds there are fifteen in total.

However, all of them are Jonin - level ninjas, no low - level Genin riff - raff.

Moreover, there is Tudai, a guy with a Kekkei Genkai, who is extremely troublesome.

At the beginning, Orochimaru has the advantage of a surprise attack, but now they have reacted.

Facing fourteen Jonin under a commander, Orochimaru is gradually at a disadvantage.

A large number of snakes don't cause them much trouble.

Under Tudai's orders, the Cloud Ninjas move in and out in good order, getting close or staying far as needed.

They wipe out the snakes Orochimaru sent out and quickly counter - attack.

Lightning Release techniques come from afar. Orochimaru dodges just in time, only to be faced with a close - range battle against three Cloud Ninjas.

Orochimaru holds a sharp blade, blocking the attacks of the three Cloud Ninjas and still having the energy to counter - attack.

Taijutsu isn't his strong suit, but it isn't a weakness either.

Seeing the Lightning Release techniques coming again, Orochimaru forces back the three Cloud Ninjas with a single sword strike and dodges once more.

The moment he lands, Tudai seizes the opportunity.

"Lava Release: Gum Ball[b]Lava Release: Gum Ball[/b]"

Tudai converts the Chakra in his body into rubber and spits it out from his mouth, wrapping it around Orochimaru.

After the rubber gets close to Orochimaru, it quickly forms a sphere, trapping him tightly.

Orochimaru slashes twice, only to find he can't chop through it.

It is very elastic and can absorb a lot of force.

"Seize this opportunity and attack!"

At Tudai's command, the remaining fourteen Cloud Ninjas show their skills.

"Lightning Release, Lightning Ball.[b]Lightning Release, Lightning Ball.[/b]"

"Lightning Release, False Darkness.[b]Lightning Release, False Darkness.[/b]"

"Lightning Release, Thunderbolt Arrow.[b]Lightning Release, Thunderbolt Arrow.[/b]"

...

Suddenly, the Cloud Ninjas unleash all sorts of Lightning Release[b]Lightning Release[/b] jutsu, charging straight at Orochimaru trapped in the sphere.

The electric light explodes with a great noise.

If he gets hit, Orochimaru will either die or be badly burned.

Tudai shows a smug smile, as if he has already seen Orochimaru turned into a charred corpse.

What a disciple of the Third Hokage! He's nothing special!!

He controls his Chakra and makes a hole in the sphere in front of Orochimaru.

A flurry of Lightning Release[b]Lightning Release[/b] ninjutsu shot through the hole straight at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru merely curls up the corners of his mouth, showing not a hint of fear.

In an instant, he is submerged by a large amount of lightning. Before Tudai can celebrate.

He sees that Orochimaru in the sphere has turned into a pile of snakes.

It is just a clone!!

"Sage Art.[b]Sage Art.[/b]"

Orochimaru's low shout comes from afar. Tudai turns to look.

He finds that Orochimaru's appearance has changed. There is a terrifying aura around him.

Along with the low shout, Orochimaru's eyes are covered by large green curse marks, and a single horn grows on his forehead.

He doesn't look odd; instead, he has an eerie sort of beauty.

The Sage Mode of the Ryūchi Cave!!

"This is your honor."

Orochimaru's gloomy voice sounds.

"Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation.[b]Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation.[/b]"

He quickly forms hand seals. The ground under the Cloud Ninjas' feet suddenly changes and protrudes.

The soil on the ground quickly gathers into huge spikes, which keep growing upwards.

It took shape rapidly and moved swiftly.

"Ah~"

Several Cloud Ninjas who couldn't dodge in time were instantly pierced through their bodies and died on the spot.

"What ninjutsu is this?"

Tudai didn't sense any chakra fluctuations underground, which was beyond his scope of knowledge.

Could it be that the soil came to life? That's just too absurd.

If he hadn't been cautious and subconsciously dodged when he saw Orochimaru making hand seals, he wouldn't have been able to avoid this hidden attack.

"Good reaction."

Orochimaru licked his lips, seemingly dissatisfied with the situation.

Bang!

As a pit exploded on the ground beneath his feet, astonishing chakra burst out from Orochimaru.

The huge force propelled his body, and his figure shot out like an arrow from a bow.

He rushed towards the Cloud Ninjas at an extremely fast speed.

"He's much faster."

Tudai's eyes narrowed slightly. He found that Orochimaru was much faster than before.

"Defend."

At the order, the Cloud Ninjas immediately used the Earth Flow Wall[b]Earth Flow Wall[/b].

A thick earthen wall rose up in front of Orochimaru.

Tudai then added a Homu Wall[b]Homu Wall[/b] to strengthen the defense of the Earth Flow Wall[b]Earth Flow Wall[/b] even more.

Boom!!

A loud noise came, and Orochimaru directly pierced through the Earth Flow Wall[b]Earth Flow Wall[/b] without losing momentum.

The pierced earthen wall collapsed with a roar, kicking up a large amount of dust.

"How is that possible?"

Tudai couldn't believe his eyes. Just now, Orochimaru couldn't even break through his Homu Ball[b]Homu Ball[/b].

With the blessing of the Sage Mode[b]Sage Mode[/b], it wasn't just his speed that was increased. For Orochimaru, it was an all - around enhancement.

His strength was completely incomparable to before.

The Cloud Ninjas gasped in surprise. They only felt a blur in front of their eyes, and Orochimaru's figure disappeared.

"Ah~"

A Cloud Ninja was beheaded directly, and a big head fell to the ground along with the blood.

The headless body crashed to the ground, and Orochimaru's figure reappeared in the eyes of the Cloud Ninjas.

"Form a formation."

Tudai quickly found a way to deal with it. The Cloud Ninjas grouped in threes and formed a triangular formation to defend against Orochimaru's attacks.

Lightning Release: Lightning Bind[b]Lightning Release: Lightning Bind[/b].

Three Cloud Ninjas inserted their weapons into the ground, made hand seals, and then placed one hand on the ground.

A large amount of lightning - attribute chakra spread and intersected through the weapons, and in an instant, a Lightning Release Barrier[b]Lightning Release Barrier[/b] trapped Orochimaru inside.

"Attack."

In fact, even without Tudai's order, the Cloud Ninjas had already started attacking Orochimaru.

"These are the same old moves again and again."

"You underestimate me too much."

Orochimaru let out a soft laugh and stuck out his tongue to lick the still - warm blood on the blade.

Facing the incoming Lightning Release[b]Lightning Release[/b] ninjutsu, Orochimaru nimbly dodged them all.

In the Sage Mode[b]Sage Mode[/b], Orochimaru's sensing ability was greatly enhanced. This level of Lightning Release[b]Lightning Release[/b] ninjutsu from the Cloud Ninjas was meaningless to him.

Sage Art: White Rage Technique[b]Sage Art: White Rage Technique[/b].

After Orochimaru made hand seals, he released a Red - glowing Dragon[b]Red - glowing Dragon[/b] from his mouth. The Red - glowing Dragon[b]Red - glowing Dragon[/b] held a Black Orb[b]Black Orb[/b] in its hand.

After the Red - glowing Dragon[b]Red - glowing Dragon[/b] appeared, it rotated around the Black Orb[b]Black Orb[/b].

After a moment, the Red - glowing Dragon[b]Red - glowing Dragon[/b] drilled into the Black Orb[b]Black Orb[/b].

Boom!!

After the Red - glowing Dragon[b]Red - glowing Dragon[/b]'s entire body drilled into the Black Orb[b]Black Orb[/b], a huge explosion occurred.

The intense and blinding light produced after the explosion enveloped the entire area, accompanied by a piercing sound.

All the Cloud Ninjas lost their sight, seeing only a vast expanse of white before their eyes.

At the same time, they felt a great pain in their bodies.

The air vibrations caused by the explosion numbed their other senses, and their bones became soft. They had lost their ability to move.

However, Orochimaru was not affected at all. He moved freely in the white light, as if a fish in water.

The Lightning Release Barrier[b]Lightning Release Barrier[/b] was broken. Orochimaru held a sharp blade and strolled over casually.

Like a Shinigami from hell, he began to mercilessly reap the lives of the Cloud Ninjas.

"How dare you!"

Seeing this scene, the Raikage let out a furious roar, his eyes glaring with rage.

He turned around and was about to leave Kawaki behind and charge towards Orochimaru.

"Want to come to the rescue now?"

"It's too late."

Kawaki blocked the Raikage's way. The combat uniforms on his body were already full of holes.

There were still wounds that were bleeding and healing.

Hearing this, Orochimaru grabbed a Cloud Ninja by the hair in the Raikage's sight.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he slowly slit the Cloud Ninja's throat.

Kill the enemy and crush their spirit!!
