Chapter 128: Orochimaru, the One Being 'Stolen' From

Natsume didn't know how to enter Orochimaru's secret base.

But he had his own way.

Sage Art: Water Release: Water Severing Slash![b]Sage Art: Water Release: Water Severing Slash![/b]

Natsume made hand seals with both hands and spat out a water column from his mouth.

After being highly compressed, the water column was sharper and more invincible than a blade.

Almost instantly, like cutting tofu, it penetrated deep into the ground and finally formed a tunnel.

"What's that sound?"

Jugo instinctively turned his head.

In the original story, he first befriended Kimimaro Kaguya and then joined Orochimaru's camp.

But now, because of Natsume, he was found earlier and thus missed out on a good friend.

As for Kimimaro Kaguya, Natsume spent some destiny value to find his location.

Unexpectedly, he found that Kimimaro was in the Land of Whirlpools.

Previously, when he told Mei Terumī that he wanted to take over this country, it wasn't without the factor of Kimimaro Kaguya.

"I'll go and take a look."

Jugo glanced at the building behind the huge glass wall and said.

"Go ahead."

Guren nodded.

Although Jugo was young, he was extremely talented.

He had a natural Sage Transformation constitution.

After being trained by Orochimaru later, it became even more stable, and his strength also grew rapidly.

As for Guren, she possessed the special Crystal Release.

She lost her homeland and relatives at a young age and only survived after meeting Orochimaru. Thus, she became his die - hard fan and was also willing to become a vessel for his Living Corpse Reincarnation.

In the original story, Guren was jealous of Sasuke Uchiha because his appearance made her no longer the top candidate for the vessel.

The main purpose of the two of them here was to guard the safety of the secret base.

Especially these dozens of children.

Jugo with his orange hair walked expressionlessly towards the source of the sound.

Just as he noticed Natsume, suddenly he covered his head, and his body surface quickly turned black.

Different physical characteristics emerged on his face, back, and arms.

No matter how you looked at him, he didn't seem like a normal human being.

Jugo's heart tightened, and his pupils contracted violently.

Due to his physical constitution, he couldn't control the Cursed Seal freely. Once he was in an area with excessively high natural energy, he would automatically undergo Sage Transformation.

This also meant that the person in front of him had an extremely rich amount of Sage Chakra.

"Wow, an alien."

Natsume stared blankly.

How ugly it is!

Everything about the Cursed Seal Transformation was fine, except it was ugly.

With his only remaining rationality being devoured, Jugo rushed towards the enemy in front of him with a ferocious expression.

Natsume clenched his fists.

Sage Art: Chakra Enhanced Strength![b]Sage Art: Chakra Enhanced Strength![/b]

With a loud bang.

Jugo was sent flying back at a faster speed.

With the momentum continuing, he flew across half of the hall and crashed into the glass wall just now.

"What... Jugo?"

Guren showed a shocked expression.

Couldn't the Cursed Seal - transformed Jugo even last for a minute?

She quickly stepped forward.

Jugo fell to the ground, leaving a bloodstain on the glass.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, which actually contained a lot of internal organ fragments.

"Quick... Run!"

Jugo suddenly pushed Guren away and shouted, "Take Shin Uchiha and leave here!"

So strong!

He was really incredibly strong!

He was definitely no match for Guren. The only option now was to take Shin Uchiha, Lord Orochimaru's most important experimental subject, and escape.

"Sorry, anyone can leave, but Shin Uchiha can't."

Natsume slowly entered the glass hall.

In the distance was a building similar to an arena.

Faintly, one could see the children locked up inside.

Without hesitation, Guren formed Hand Seals[b]Hand Seals[/b].

Crystal Release: Emerald Crystal Prison![b]Crystal Release: Emerald Crystal Prison![/b]

Transparent but slightly pink crystals immediately grew at the spot where Natsume was standing, encasing him.

Seeing him fall for it, Guren secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to leave with Jugo, the crystals suddenly cracked.

"How is that possible?"

It was the first time Guren had seen someone break through her crystals so violently.

Crystal Release: Single Arrow of Light![b]Crystal Release: Single Arrow of Light![/b]

She frantically formed Hand Seals[b]Hand Seals[/b] again, pouring out all of her Chakra[b]Chakra[/b].

A huge crystal protected her and Jugo.

But just defending was meaningless.

Suddenly, a bright laser shot out from the center of the crystal.

In the original story, Guren once blinded the Three-Tailed Beast with this Ninjutsu[b]Ninjutsu[/b].

Natsume swayed and suddenly appeared behind them.

He didn't need to engage in a head - on fight.

Sage Art: Water Release: Water Severing Slash![b]Sage Art: Water Release: Water Severing Slash![/b]

The water column instantly sliced through the crystal.

Before Guren could even react, she was kicked flying by Natsume and slammed into the wall.

"Where is Shin Uchiha?"

Natsume looked down at Guren, who was lying on the ground and unable to get up.

"Kill me! I won't tell you!"

Guren showed no fear, demonstrating her loyalty to Orochimaru.

A kunoichi who had infiltrated, was being interrogated, and was captured.

Putting these three elements together was very dangerous.

Natsume threw these unnecessary thoughts out of his mind.

He was a decent person.

He didn't do such messy things.

Cough.

Natsume squatted down and activated his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan[b]Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan[/b].

Guren immediately fell into a daze.

"He's in Room No. 1 of the arena."

"Thanks for the intelligence, but you need to forget about seeing my eyes for a while."

As Natsume said this, he activated the Yomi - tsu[b]Yomi - tsu[/b] technique.

This Dojutsu[b]Dojutsu[/b] could make people forget a particular memory within a specific period.

As for how long that period was, it depended on the amount of pupil power[b]pupil power[/b].

Natsume set it for one year.

Anyway, he had a lot of pupil power[b]pupil power[/b].

The greatest benefit after evolving into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan[b]Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan[/b] was that there were no side - effects and he wouldn't go blind.

Oh!

That's why Natsume could use Dojutsu[b]Dojutsu[/b] so casually.

"Guren, what are you doing?"

Jugo, who was standing beside her with his back to Natsume, didn't see the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan[b]Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan[/b], but he heard what Guren said.

"Damn it, you actually betrayed Lord Orochimaru!"

"No, I didn't!"

Guren came to her senses but didn't remember what had just happened. She asked in horror, "What kind of trick did you use?!"

Natsume didn't answer her question.

He was pondering whether to take Guren away.

But she was too loyal to Orochimaru. Unless he used Kotoamatsukami[b]Kotoamatsukami[/b], it would be difficult to make her useful.

Forget it, Kotoamatsukami[b]Kotoamatsukami[/b] couldn't be wasted like this.

Moreover, he already had subordinates like Shisui Uchiha and Izumi Uchiha, so he didn't lack hands for the time being.

Most importantly, he thought Guren was just an average-looking girl.

Cough cough.

Natsume turned around and looked at the glass wall.

Orochimaru must have put a lot of effort into this. This glass is quite hard.

But no matter how hard it is, there's a limit.

He used the Sage Art: Chakra Enhanced Strength![b]Sage Art: Chakra Enhanced Strength![/b]

Natsume punched and shattered the glass.

He stood in front of Door No. 1, squinting his eyes.

The next moment, a figure appeared behind him and stabbed at him with a kunai at an extremely fast speed.

Natsume turned around and saw a pair of Three - Tomoe Sharingan.

He casually grabbed Shin Uchiha's wrist, then lifted his leg and delivered a kick infused with Sage Chakra, kicking Shin Uchiha away.

"Die!"

Shin Uchiha felt the intense pain in his body. His Sharingan glared at Natsume as he shouted.

Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique![b]Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique![/b]

"A Three - Tomoe Sharingan ain't gonna cut it."

Natsume casually dispelled his genjutsu.

"How is that possible?!"

Shin Uchiha looked on the verge of collapse.

Natsume was slightly stunned.

Suddenly, he remembered that although this guy wasn't a member of the Uchiha clan, he was a spiritual Uchiha.

He was extremely obsessed with Itachi Uchiha.

Natsume's actions just now undoubtedly dealt a blow to him.

It was quite funny.

He casually knocked Shin Uchiha unconscious with a swift strike and slowly sauntered out of the secret base.

Natsume didn't plan to use the Flying Thunder God Technique[b]Flying Thunder God Technique[/b].

Because if he did, Orochimaru wouldn't be able to track his traces.
