Chapter 557: Don’t even pretend!

"Of course!" Naruto grinned.

"Alright, we'll talk about politeness later." Sasuke stepped forward, lifted Gaara up and placed him on his shoulder: "We still have to get back to the rear as soon as possible and keep these three captives under good care."

Even though Kadoki had told them not to hold back, Sasuke and the others still left some room for their opponent when they took action.

On the one hand, Team 7 did not encounter pursuit from the Sound Ninja like in the original story, and on the other hand, Gaara and his team were unable to find a way to join up with the Sand Ninja force.

The strength of Sasuke and his three companions is much stronger than Temari and Kankuro.

Another thing is that Gaara and the other two are Rasa’s children, and Gaara is even the One-Tail Jinchuriki. Team 7 knows this information.

Then, these three people would be very important prisoners and perhaps become important bargaining chips in post-war negotiations.

"But the village is in chaos now. Where can we find a place to accommodate these three prisoners?" Naruto was a little distressed.

"Idiot!" Karin couldn't help but give Naruto a slap on the face: "How could this kind of thing be difficult for me, your elder sister?"

"Yes!" Naruto clapped his hands, as if he suddenly got the idea.

"And me, and me!" Fu raised her hand excitedly: "Leave the high-altitude reconnaissance to me!"

It feels so good to be able to help a friend!

"Oh, thank you so much, Fu!"

......

The foursome, along with the three captives, headed towards the village.

Being young and inexperienced, they probably didn't know that the value of these three captives had already been greatly reduced.

After this war, the Sand Village will no longer exist, so who will redeem these three captives?

......

On the other side, on the high platform of the Chunin Exam arena, the battle in the Four Purple Flame Formation was about to come to an end.

"Orochimaru, can you do this?"

Luo Sha shouted anxiously, almost cursing.

"I can't take it anymore..." Orochimaru fell to the ground in an extremely strange posture, like a dead snake.

"Fuck..." Luo Sha was about to curse, but instantly took a big step back and quickly erected a sand wall to block the Great Dragon Fire Technique that was being sprayed out by the Third Generation.

Rasa didn't understand. They were fighting well at the beginning and even had a slight advantage. But how come Orochimaru was defeated suddenly as Uchiha Shisui on the opposite side opened his Mangekyō?

Let’s say you’re hit by an illusion. Who can lie on the ground groaning after being hit by an illusion?

Ever since he saw that the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, who was supposed to be here, was replaced by the Third Hokage, Rasa smelled a conspiracy. Now seeing Orochimaru's deadly look, he was even more certain that he and the Sand Village he led had fallen into Konoha's trap!

Even Orochimaru, who had been pulling him in to plan the collapse of Konoha from the very beginning, was one of the masterminds behind the scenes!

This Four Purple Flame Formation is more like a cage woven for oneself!

But I, Luo Sha, must not fail here!

At the very least, we have to get out of here and join up with the Sand Ninjas outside before we can make a long-term plan!

Although Rasa didn't know the battle situation outside, judging from the fact that Konoha was well prepared, the situation might not be optimistic!

Luo Sha simply couldn't imagine what a tragic end would happen to the Sand Ninjas who were still fighting outside if he failed or even died here!

Holding onto a glimmer of hope, Luo Sha resisted the tide of attacks while shouting: "Orochimaru, where is your Impure World Reincarnation! Didn't you say you wanted to summon the First and Second Hokage to join the battle?!"

"Huh?" Orochimaru scratched his ears and changed his lying position, with an expression as if he had heard something incredible: "How could I have such an idea of ​​blaspheming the soul of the dead, especially the ancestor of Konoha!"

"Although I, Orochimaru, have done many inhumane things, I also have a bottom line!"

Orochimaru looked at Rasa "seriously" and his words were "righteous".

Convex (fuck dish)

"Fuck, you just want to watch me die!" Luo Sha cursed.

Orochimaru ignored him and rolled to the side, pretending to be in pain.

I'm too lazy to even act!

Rasa roared, using the Sand Shield to block the Third Hokage's ninjutsu attack, while at the same time controlling the sand to force back Uchiha Shisui who was trying to launch a sneak attack using the Illusion Body Instant Technique.

Neither of these two opponents is easy to deal with!

Although the Third Generation's strength has declined seriously, he still maintains the level of Kage, and it is hard to say whether he has any hidden cards; Uchiha Shisui is definitely at the level of Kage, and he has not used the eye technique of the Mangekyō Sharingan until now!

Even if we don't count Takima, who was standing next to them and just wanted to watch the show with melon seeds in his hand, these two people already have the ability to kill Luo Sha here!

Orochimaru has made it clear that he is not putting in enough effort, and Rasa no longer expects to win.

The most important thing now is to get out! If we don't leave now, it will be a complete dead end!

"Orochimaru! I don't care what your position is, activate the Four Purple Flame Formation immediately, right now!"

"Oh? Have you thought it through?" Orochimaru smiled evilly: "If you open the Four Purple Flame Formation, your plan will fail. I have worked so hard to create an environment for you to hold back the two Kage-level masters of Konoha..."

Seeing that Orochimaru was still making sarcastic remarks, Luo Sha yelled directly: "Orochimaru, if you don't open it, I will take you with me before I die!"

Seeing Orochimaru's half-smile, Luo Sha added fuel to the fire: "Orochimaru, believe it or not, I will die in your hands and your play will not be performed!"

This time, Orochimaru's expression finally changed.

"Haha, what a great decision, Luo Sha. But why do you have to say such cruel words to me, your ally?"

Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth with a smile.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Luo Sha roared, and at the same time burst out chakra to force back the offensive of the Third Hokage and Uchiha Shisui again: "Golden Sand Waves!"

Looking at the Sandai and Shisui who were forced to keep their distance to avoid the sand waves, Orochimaru understood that now was a good time to escape.

"Okay, then it's as you wish, Rasa." Orochimaru simply stopped pretending and stood up swiftly, making a gesture.

After all, if Orochimaru wants to continue the show, he has to find a time to leave here.

"Okay!" Rasa glared at Orochimaru with hatred, but he knew that this was not the time to cause trouble for him, so he could only stare at Orochimaru.

On the other side, the Sandaime and Shisui seemed to be cooperating with Orochimaru, and had no intention of stopping him. When the four saw Orochimaru's actions, they immediately set about removing the Four Purple Flame Formation.

At the moment when the Four Purple Flame Formation was released, Orochimaru jumped high and instantly left the battlefield.

While fleeing, Orochimaru shouted loudly: "The plan has failed, Otogakure retreat!"

I don’t know what kind of ninjutsu Orochimaru used, but his voice was so loud that it echoed throughout Konoha in an instant.

As expected of Sound Village!
