Chapter 222 Orochimaru Betrays the Village, The Hokage Puts on a Show

"Damn it! This is my illusion space, don't be too arrogant!"

Fugaku roared, and the giant Mangekyo Sharingan in the sky, which had been obscured by flocks of crows, began to spin slowly. As the Mangekyo spun, the surrounding black and white gradually thickened as if paint had been added.

Everything was once again painted in black and white, dividing the entire illusion space into two factions: one side was pure black crows, and the other was black and white like graffiti, facing each other.

For a moment, neither side could do anything to the other. After all, this was Fugaku's main battlefield, and he had the advantage. Shisui dared not waste too much of his Sharingan's power, for what if he blinded the clan head's Mangekyo?

Just as Shisui was thinking this, a tear of blood slowly flowed from the corner of Fugaku's eye…

Whoosh, whoosh!

Two figures darted rapidly through the forest. Orochimaru turned his head to look at Lin Yu beside him, putting away his fear, and sneered, "Leaving just like this? Does the mighty Moon God fear a Hokage who has only been in office for two years?"

Orochimaru had such a self-destructive personality. He knew that the Moon God before him could cut him in half with a single move, yet he couldn't resist provoking him. Perhaps it was also resentment for the fact that the other party had almost scared his teacher to wet his pants.

Hiruzen-sensei was already old and still had to endure such torment. No compassion at all!

If it were me, wouldn't it be better to give him a quick end?!

Lin Yu, who was impersonating the Moon God, did not answer Orochimaru's question. He calculated the time and distance, then landed in a small clearing ahead, quietly waiting for someone's arrival.

Before long, Minato Namikaze, with his golden hair, landed not far from the two, looking at Lin Yu with a solemn expression. "Lord Moon God, you must know my purpose."

Lin Yu had not revealed his identity as the Moon God to Minato. Currently, only Shisui knew that the Moon God was Lin Yu. Letting our "Eternal Sister" misunderstand the Eternal Organization a bit more could increase his trust in the organization.

Who wouldn't want to hitch a ride on an organization with such powerful strength and so many talented individuals!

Lin Yu extended his hand to Orochimaru. Orochimaru froze for a moment, then looked at Minato Namikaze with an incredulous expression. The corners of his mouth split into a wide grin, and he readily handed the Scroll of Sealing to Lin Yu.

So the Fourth Hokage was also a member of the organization!

This was a play staged by the Eternal Organization and the Fourth Hokage of Konoha!

And the fuse was him, Orochimaru. Those stubborn ninjas who were killed were the reward for Konoha this time. Hmph! Another political transaction?

Then where was the reward for the Eternal Organization? Orochimaru thought of himself. He never expected that he, Orochimaru, would one day be treated as spoils of war!

Hmph, it didn't matter. He was already planning to join the Eternal Organization anyway. For the sake of his research path, he had to join!

Lin Yu ignored the rich and colorful expressions on Orochimaru's face, tossed the Scroll of Sealing in his hand to Minato Namikaze, and said coldly, "The organization's mission is complete, only the final cleanup remains."

Minato Namikaze took the Scroll of Sealing and put it on his back. His eyes flickered, and he said, "Indeed, it's time for the cleanup!"

Swish!

Dozens of Flying Thunder God kunai were planted around. Minato Namikaze held a Flying Thunder God kunai in front of him and said coldly, "Rasengan Flash Super Whirlwind Dance Stage Three!"

Orochimaru stared blankly at a yellow flash darting around. Was this deliberately creating a battlefield?

Was this acting truly complete? I, Orochimaru, am just defecting from the village! Why is the Fourth Hokage acting for me too!

Lin Yu watched as Minato began his performance, and he no longer delayed. Lightning enveloped him, erratically striking the ground!

The ground: I didn't provoke these two brats! Why are they blasting all over me!

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was following Minato Namikaze, heard the sounds of battle ahead. His old, wrinkled face was filled with urgency. He didn't care if he could win or not. The Fourth Hokage must not die!

He still wanted to spend his twilight years peacefully with Danzo!

"Minato!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi rushed out of the forest, wielding his Adamantine Nyoi-bo, his face filled with determination. But the scene that met his eyes instantly sent him from hell to heaven!

What did he see! That lawless Moon God was actually spat out blood, and his disciple Orochimaru was covered in dust, looking like he was in a precarious situation.

Orochimaru: I'm covered in dust because of these two actors! Old man, your eyesight is terrible!

"Minato! How is it!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi landed beside Minato Namikaze, who stood proudly in the center, and looked at the Moon God and Orochimaru with a solemn expression.

Minato Namikaze pointed to the scroll on his back and said softly, "They can't do anything to me for the moment, and I've recovered the Scroll of Sealing."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said worriedly, "Minato, why don't we retreat first? The village cannot be without you. And there's still one member of the Eternal Organization who hasn't come out!"

"But…"

Minato Namikaze looked unwilling, as if he was about to capture the Moon God and Orochimaru before him.

"Minato! The village is important. As for Orochimaru… let him go!" Although Hiruzen Sarutobi was unwilling, he understood that the village's safety was more important at this moment.

Forcing out a trace of blood, Lin Yu looked towards the distant jungle. A smile appeared under his mask, and he shouted loudly, "As expected of the Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze, this is not over! Let's go!"

With that, Lin Yu glared hatefully at Minato Namikaze and disappeared into the forest with Orochimaru, who almost covered his face and denied knowing this person.

This scene was witnessed by the arriving ANBU ninjas. An ANBU wearing a fox mask couldn't help but exclaim, "The Moon God was actually driven away by Lord Hokage!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they quickly spread backward…

"The lawless Moon God was forced to spit blood by Lord Hokage!"

"What! The Moon God was beaten by our Lord Hokage with his head pressed down?!"

"Shocking! The Eternal Organization's Moon God was instantly killed by the Hokage of Konoha!"

When the news reached Konoha village, it had already become: "The Moon God has been killed by Lord Hokage! Lord Hokage is invincible!"

Kakashi, who had just arrived, heard the "rumors" from the front and, combined with the traces of the surrounding battlefield, quickly concluded that this battle was not won easily by Lord Hokage, perhaps not won at all!

The Moon God, for some unknown reason, perhaps because the mission was completed and he no longer wanted to entangle with Konoha, had retreated.

In summary, Konoha lost this battle. Two members of the Eternal Organization had thrown Konoha village into chaos.

However, this battle had established the reputation of the Fourth Hokage in the hearts of Konoha ninjas – the reputation of being able to single-handedly defeat a member of the Eternal Organization! Whether it was true or not, in the eyes of Konoha ninjas, this was the reality!

"Hmph! Konoha's Azure Beast Might Guy makes his entrance! Kakashi, where is the enemy?"

Might Guy, who arrived late, landed heavily in front of Kakashi. Although Kakashi wore a cat mask, his white hair had already revealed his identity. Might Guy couldn't recognize faces, but he could recognize this white hair. He could identify Kakashi from a single strand of hair!

Kakashi covered his face and said, "Go home and sleep, you!"
