"Orochimaru-sama!"
Yūhi Kurama whispered urgently, "You should first take a look at the conditions Lord Danzo has offered."
"Lord Danzo has shown considerable sincerity this time. He can help you eliminate a rival and also provide you with a notable achievement!"
"These conditions are already quite generous. Are you really not going to consider them?"
"Kurama-kun, this isn't like you, who can always remain calm."
Orochimaru glanced at the receding figure of Wakaho and then at the unopened scroll in his hand, shaking his head with a light smile.
"Look... I'm considering it right now."
Orochimaru toyed with the scroll, not needing to look at it directly. From Kurama's words, he had already deduced some details.
"If Lord Danzo wants to cooperate with me, he should at least demonstrate sufficient strength, right?"
"Otherwise, why would I give up on the oldest ninja clan in Konoha to undertake such a risky collaboration with Lord Danzo?"
Yūhi Kurama was taken aback!
Orochimaru was actually considering working with the Uchiha clan? Just because this brat is his disciple!?
"Let's make a bet, Kurama-kun."
Orochimaru looked into the distance.
"I remember Tetsuo-kun became one of Danzo's elite guards three years ago, selected from among the special jounin..."
"If he can withstand five minutes against Wakaho-kun... I will open this scroll in front of him."
"How about it?"
The Dragon Flame Jutsu's bombardment was ineffective.
Yamashiro Tetsuo escaped from the flames, using a large tree as cover, his figure constantly flickering.
Wakaho formed hand seals, his three-tomoe Sharingan locking onto Yamashiro Tetsuo.
What he really wanted was the Water Style: Water Severing Wave from the First Hokage's techniques.
It was fast, had strong penetration, and was like a high-pressure water gun.
With Fire Style as the base and various buffs, it could become a high-temperature laser.
Using it as a sniper rifle might have pierced through Tetsuo's cover and blown his head off.
His dear Sensei Orochimaru had said that when encountering someone with the "dark will," he could choose to take action.
This wasn't about killing; it was about purifying the world...
Wakaho had been thinking that after returning to Konoha, he might find an opportunity to put his teacher's teachings into practice.
Unexpectedly, he got the chance to act so soon.
"So, Orochimaru really doesn't plan to stop me at all?"
"Killing Yamashiro Tetsuo here will make Orochimaru fully responsible..."
Wakaho kept his distance, not giving Tetsuo a chance to use Yamashiro's secret techniques.
Taking a quick glance at Orochimaru and Yūhi Kurama, he noticed neither was pursuing him.
He was familiar with this combination.
After Orochimaru lost the Hokage election, he "defected" to Danzo, becoming one of Danzo's elite guards, alongside Yūhi Kurama.
But at this point in time...
Wakaho found that Orochimaru seemed to still be holding back Yūhi Kurama?
"Interesting."
Wakaho raised an eyebrow.
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
Wakaho placed his hands on the dragon's head, channeling chakra fiercely, causing the massive flame dragon to open its gaping maw!
With the three-tomoe Sharingan, Wakaho could now attempt to fuse several "dragon" techniques.
What Wakaho needed to do now was to merge the Fire (Water) Dragon Bullet with the Fire (Earth) Dragon Bullet, effectively installing the aircraft carrier gun!
Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!
Maintaining a certain distance, Wakaho's fire dragon continuously fired fire bullets at Yamashiro Tetsuo!
"This damned brat!"
Yamashiro Tetsuo gritted his teeth. With Wakaho flying high above, he was out of range for counter-attacks, leaving him no choice but to passively endure the assault!
Flying was always faster than running on the ground.
