Orochimaru strolled out leisurely, applauding himself. "I see you've got information on the Second Mizukage. Impressive. Due to the strict secrecy measures enforced during his reign, even shinobi of the Hidden Mist barely know about their own Kage." Orochimaru licked his lips and continued, "Naruto-kun, you've piqued my interest."

"Piqued your interest? More like you're eyeing my body!" Naruto retorted inwardly.

"I never imagined you'd go as far as desecrating the Second Mizukage's grave." Naruto shook his head in disbelief.

He knew Orochimaru's subordinates weren't as adept as Kabuto at espionage, let alone grave robbing. "I can't believe you managed to find the grave, let alone perform the Impure World Reincarnation."

"You're aware of the conditions for the Impure World Reincarnation?" Orochimaru's eyes widened. "That's not something a mere Genin should know."

"I know a lot of things, including how to achieve immortality. Want to catch me and find out more?" Naruto baited, hoping to buy some time.

"Fascinating, but I—" Orochimaru's words were abruptly cut off.

"Found you!" Minato's eyes glowed with orange Sage Mode markings as he raised his hand. "Sage Art: Super Light Wheel Rasenshuriken!"

The Rasenshuriken, enhanced with Sage Chakra, tore through the illusions of Orochimaru and the Second Mizukage, slicing through trees and exploding in mid-air. The air was filled with countless tiny wind blades.

The giant clam, which had been hiding invisibly, finally revealed itself as the Rasenshuriken shattered its shell, causing it to disperse into smoke.

Simultaneously, the illusions of Orochimaru and the Second Mizukage vanished.

A large eye appeared on the Monkey King Enma's staff as the Third Hokage looked puzzled. "What kind of arrow was that?"

Naruto walked over and curiously poked the staff. "It's called the Super Light Wheel Rasenshuriken."

Enma's eyes widened. "You even remembered the name?"

"Of course! I think Dad chose a pretty cool name this time," Naruto grinned.

The Third Hokage chuckled. "Like father, like son."

Boom! Boom!

Explosions echoed in the distance as Jiraiya fought Rasa within the barrier.

Since the battleground was confined, Rasa couldn't summon his massive gold dust waves as he did against Gaara in the desert.

Instead, he resorted to precise attacks and defences with limited gold dust.

From another direction, Tsunade's roars and the sound of wood splintering indicated a fierce battle with Hashirama.

"Our battle isn't over, Naruto. You must stay vigilant on the battlefield," the Third Hokage warned, gripping Enma tightly.

"I know," Naruto responded, scanning his surroundings for Orochimaru's location. "Aside from Hinata-chan, anyone interested in me is definitely up to no good… Wait, is Orochimaru transforming into a beautiful woman? Gross! Better put an end to this pervert's games."

"It's time to wrap this up," Minato said, and with a flash of the Flying Thunder God Jutsu, he brought Kushina to Tobirama's side, striking him with a Rasengan.

When it comes to breaking skulls, no one beats a ninja, and Minato is no exception.

Before Tobirama could recover, Kushina pulled out a sealing tag and slapped it onto him.

Black markings spread across Tobirama's body, and with a puff of smoke, the disguise faded, revealing the Sound Village ninja Sakon underneath.

"Looks like we're out of time," Orochimaru sneered, seeing Minato and Kushina swiftly subdue the Edo-Tensei. He commanded the Four Sound Ninja maintaining the barrier, "Release the barrier and retreat!"

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru!" they responded in unison.

As the barrier fell, the Sound Four prepared to flee with Orochimaru.

"Orochimaru, don't think you can escape!" The Third Hokage charged forward with Enma raised.

But Orochimaru smirked and, in a flash, turned and thrust his Kusanagi Sword upward. The Third Hokage's eyes widened as he felt the blade pierce through his abdomen, blood trickling down.

"Sarutobi-sensei!"

"Third Hokage!"

"Lord Third!"

Minato, with a grim expression, formed another Rasenshuriken and hurled it at Orochimaru while calling out, "Naruto!"

"On it!" Naruto instantly transported the wounded Third Hokage to the hospital, landing beside Sakura. "Sakura-nee, quick, first aid!"

"Lord Third!" Sakura immediately began treating the wound, her hands glowing with healing chakra. "What happened?"

"Hang in there for a bit, old man. I'll be right back." Naruto shot off to Tsunade's location, arriving just as she smashed Hashirama with a punch.

Naruto bound the regenerating Hashirama with chakra chains and placed a hand on Tsunade's shoulder. "Tsunade-nee, come with me!"

In a flash, they were transported to the hospital ward, the chains securely binding Hashirama.

"Tsunade, this is…" Tsunade quickly assessed the situation. "Sakura, I'll take over. Follow my instructions and carefully extract the sword."

"Yes, ma'am!" Sakura grasped the sword hilt, steady and focused.

Naruto watched anxiously as they carefully removed the blade. The bleeding stopped, and Sandai's condition stabilized.

"How is he?"

"He'll live, but he needs rest. He's not as young as he used to be." Tsunade wiped her brow and muttered, "Seriously, why is he still fighting on the frontlines?"

Relieved, Naruto turned to deal with Hashirama, who was still regenerating.

Drawing intricate sealing marks over Hashirama's body, Naruto completed the seal, turning the body to dust and revealing the Sound Ninja Tayuya.

"Isn't this one of the Sound Four? What's going on?" Sakura was still puzzled.

"I'll explain later. For now, take care of the Third. Tsunade-nee, let's go! Orochimaru won't get away with this!"

Returning to the battlefield, they found the Sound Four unconscious, Rasa already sealed, with the sacrificial body being Jirobo.

Minato, Kushina, and Jiraiya had surrounded Orochimaru and the Second Mizukage.

Seeing Tsunade approaching, her anger barely contained, Orochimaru wiped the sweat from his forehead. "This is truly… the worst-case scenario."
