Chapter 301
Jiraiya turned his head with difficulty and looked in the direction of the voice.
There, he saw three figures walking in his direction, with a teenager of twelve or thirteen at the head.
The teenager had white hair and two red dots between his eyebrows on his forehead. He was looking at Jiraiya with extreme vigilance, holding the smooth white bones in his hands.
It was Kimimaro Kaguya.
Behind.
Orochimaru leaned against the shoulder of another twelve-year-old.
Sannin's face looked extremely haggard, and his chakra and breathing were very weak and chaotic, as if he was severely injured.
Jiraiya and Orochimaru looked into each other's eyes, neither of them expected to meet the other here, especially in such a serious condition.
"Did you also meet...him?»
Orochimaru addressed Jiraiya in a hoarse and weak voice, and then with difficulty removed his hand from the teenager's shoulder and said, " Haku, deal with his injuries.»
"Got it.»
Initially, Haku was supposed to become Zabuza's servant, but due to Yeruashi's reminder, Orochimaru found him first, eventually Haku became a follower of Sannin.
Haku nodded and immediately rushed to Jiraiya's side, starting to focus on his injuries.
During the examination of the wounds, Haku's face became extremely serious: "Lord Orochimaru, his injuries are too severe, this is not something I can deal with.»
"Ahem...ahem...nothing...»
Jiraiya spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and said to Haku, " Just help me use the summoning technique...»
Haku looked at Orochimaru and after receiving his approval, pulled Kimimaro's bones out of Jiraiya's hands, and then raised his hands.
With the help of Haku, Jiraiya placed his hands on the ground and used the summoning technique.
Pooh!!
A small toad appeared and exclaimed in shock when it saw Jiraiya's heavy injuries, " Jiraiya, what happened...»
Jiraiya, of course, did not go into details: "First, help me...»
"Good.»
The toad nodded and spat out a long tongue, wrapping it around Jiraiya's wrist.
Through the tongue, an emerald chakra gushed into Jiraiya's body, immediately preventing his injuries from getting worse.
After first aid, Jiraiya's face became less pale and he no longer coughed up blood: "Ah, Yeruashi was too ruthless...what happened to you?»
Orochimaru was very surprised: "Did Yeruashi do this? Is he really here?!»
Initially, it was assumed that Jiraiya faced the same opponent as him, but now it seems that everything was different.
"Ah...»
Jiraiya was also surprised by Orochimaru's reaction: "Yeruashi is a few dozen kilometers away from this place.»
He of course could not explain the circumstances of his injury and immediately changed the subject, looking intently at Orochimaru: "How can you be in such a serious condition? Who did you run into?»
"He was a very interesting and strong guy.»
Orochimaru said in a hoarse voice: "I have never met a similar chakra and wanted to capture it for experiments, but as a result...»
Sannin didn't say what exactly happened next.
This unusual man himself came to his base and Orochimaru wanted to capture him to conduct some experiments, but as a result, Sannin was easily defeated, even the base was completely destroyed.
Fortunately, Kimimaro and Haku were on a mission outside the base at the time. He was relying on the Cursed Seal on Haku's body to restore his body and was about to find a safe place to recuperate, but unexpectedly ran into Jiraiya.
Due to Orochimaru's severe condition, Kimimaro was extremely vigilant and instinctively perceived Jiraiya as a threat, attacking him with several bone spears without further thought.
If Orochimaru had not sensed Jiraiya's chakra and warned Kimimaro at the last moment, forcing him to change the direction of the attack, then one of the Sannins might have died at the hands of a twelve-year-old teenager.
"This person is really strong, since even you are unable to defeat him.»
Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru in shock.
As one of the Sannin, Jiraiya was well aware of how strong Orochimaru was. There are not many Shinobi in the world who can defeat Orochimaru, let alone seriously injure or kill him, because he has excellent regeneration and generally the ability to preserve life, which allows you to retreat without much trouble in the face of almost any opponent.
But this time, Orochimaru was clearly very badly injured.
His chakra and physical body are in an extremely weakened state.
Jiraiya can't remember the last time he saw Orochimaru in such a serious condition.
"Where exactly are the Yeruashi?»
Orochimaru turned to Jiraiya, his voice very weak.
Jiraiya sat up with difficulty and leaned against a tree, then pointed in the direction from which he had just flown: "There, a few dozen kilometers away, is a city...»
"I'm going to meet Yeruashi, will you come with me?»
When Orochimaru said this, his gaze became very strange.
Sannin already had a rough idea of the exact circumstances under which his old comrade had been severely injured and even pushed back by the Yeruashi for tens of kilometers. Orochimaru did not think that Jiraiya was brave enough to provoke Yeruashi, most likely, he was just very unlucky to run into this person under the most unfortunate circumstances.
"I'm not going with you.»
Jiraiya sighed heavily.
He wanted to live for a few more years and write some best-selling books.
"I didn't even see anything...»
Jiraiya whispered softly, feeling very hurt and unfair.
But at this moment, a cold voice suddenly reached his ears: "If only I had seen it...he would have already gone to the pure world.»
Hearing that voice, Jiraiya felt a chill run through his entire body.
Haku, who was standing nearby, suddenly tensed and subconsciously took out a kunai. Someone was able to approach him for such a short distance, without a single sign at all!
Kimimaro reacted even more forcefully, immediately throwing two bone spears in the direction of the figure that appeared.
Pooh! Pooh!!
Yeruashi, who was wearing a white robe, raised his hand and used his finger to fend off the bone spears thrown by Kimimaro.
Kimimaro's eyes widened sharply.
He immediately created two more bone spears and gripped them tightly with his hands, while at the same time looking extremely alert and tense at Yeruashi.
This man is very strong!
Looking at this sudden appearance, which completely escaped the perception of Kimimaro and Haku, one could only say that this person was extremely good at hiding his presence, but by fending off Kimimaro's bone spears with just a light wave of his hand, he showed great strength.
His bones are capable of piercing steel, but this man just knocked them off with his finger!
This speed and strength is simply terrifying!
«...»
Yeruashi didn't care about Kimimaro's surprise attack at all.
He was just going to take a look at Jiraiya's situation after throwing him dozens of kilometers away, but suddenly he saw Orochimaru here and felt that he was also seriously injured, so he immediately threw on a robe and hurried here.
Phew!
Yeruashi's figure disappeared and appeared right in front of Orochimaru.
«!!»
Kimimaro, who was standing next to Orochimaru, started violently.
Such speed...
In a situation where it was not clear whether it was a friend or an enemy, Kimimaro abruptly swung the bone spear, in an attempt to force Yeruashi to move away from Orochimaru.
