Chapter 025: Fourth Raikage: I Punch Through Susanoo?
Sound Village.
"Sasuke is indeed the genius I recognized; he has grown to this level!" Orochimaru remarked calmly. However, he was unaware that at this future moment, he would have already been completely sealed, and his attempt to possess Sasuke's body would have long failed.
[Mei Terumī: I saw myself in the battle footage; this seems to be a meeting place for the leaders of the major villages. Sasuke must be an intruder. Why is he attacking us?]
[Danzō: Latest news, Sasuke has defected! He was taken by Orochimaru!]
[Naruto: I don't believe Sasuke would defect. I will bring him back!]
[Sasuke: Naruto, I indeed defected. Only by following Lord Orochimaru can I grow. In Konoha, I had no chance to develop. You're different; even though you were bullied since childhood, now you're the Fourth Hokage's son, the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, and Konoha's hope. You can live without worries. But I carry a deep grudge. I must grow quickly. Besides, even the Third Hokage was killed by Lord Orochimaru. With Orochimaru's power, he's qualified to be my teacher! I want revenge on that man, and nothing can stop me!]
[Orochimaru: Well said!]
[Tsunade: Orochimaru, you're really good at persuading people!]
[Sakura: Sasuke, we're a team! Are you really going to abandon us?]
[Sasuke: Sakura, I'm sorry!]
Soon, the battle reached its climax.
The Fourth Raikage punched at Sasuke, while Sasuke used Kagutsuchi to turn Amaterasu into a shield, protecting his Susanoo. Seeing this, the Fourth Raikage didn't care at all, continuing to punch fiercely. He shattered the shield and even crushed some of Susanoo's ribs. Sasuke was sent flying and injured. However, the Fourth Raikage's left arm was also contaminated with the black flames of Amaterasu, which could burn anything and were impossible to extinguish. The Fourth Raikage was decisive and immediately tore off his left arm, severing it on the spot. At this point, the scene ended.
[Killer Bee: Big bro, you're amazing! Susanoo's so famous, and he even used Amaterasu. Yet you dared to charge in directly!]
[Hashirama Senju: Hahaha, punching Susanoo—I'll call you the first. Even I wouldn't dare do that!]
[Madara Uchiha: Interesting. The Fourth Raikage's strength is impressive, being able to shatter Susanoo's ribs. However, Sasuke's eye power is still weak, and the Susanoo he manifested wasn't strong enough. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been severely injured by a single punch from the Fourth Raikage!]
[Hidan: With that strength, you can't even deal with Uchiha Itachi!]
[Naruto: Sasuke wasn't seriously hurt in the end, right?]
[Tsunade: Orochimaru, will you send Sasuke to attack the major village leaders in the future?]
[Orochimaru: This is the future. I don't have such plans now. I’m not bold enough to offend the Five Great Villages. But what I'm curious about is Danzō being among the village leaders. Could he be the next Hokage? Impossible. Danzō isn't suitable to be Hokage, and he's too old. Could it be that Konoha has no one left in the future?]
At this point, many Konoha shinobi were astonished.
That's right!
Konoha has many suitable candidates for Hokage. Whether it's Jiraiya, Tsunade, or others, they're all more qualified than the old Danzō.
At this moment, no one was more excited than Danzō!
"Could I actually become Hokage in the future?" Danzō exclaimed, excitedly.
He indeed wanted to be Hokage, dreaming about it!
However, when he was younger, he was suppressed by Hiruzen Sarutobi. When he was older, Hiruzen trained the Three Legendary Sannin, and then the Fourth Hokage emerged. Now that he's old, his chances are dwindling. But from the future footage, it seems he really has a chance to become Hokage.
However, he knew that he wouldn't be the Fifth Hokage. The Konoha high-ups had already decided that Tsunade would be the Fifth Hokage.
"If I can't be the Fifth Hokage, then being the Sixth Hokage will do!" Danzō thought.
[Fourth Raikage: I actually punched through Susanoo and lost an arm?]
At this moment, the Fourth Raikage was genuinely bewildered. Losing an arm would significantly reduce his strength. Of course, this was the future. Having seen it now, he could naturally change it. For instance, if he really encounters such a situation, he could choose not to punch Susanoo or eliminate Uchiha Sasuke.
[Fourth Raikage: Orochimaru will definitely oppose the Five Great Villages in the future. His goal might be to kill the village leaders. He has already killed the Fourth Kazekage and the Third Hokage, so there's no guarantee he won't kill more people in the future.]
[Fourth Kazekage: I agree with this suggestion. Orochimaru and Sasuke are both extremely dangerous individuals and must be eliminated!]
[Itachi Uchiha: My brother can only be killed by me. None of you are qualified. If anyone dares to harm Uchiha Sasuke, they will become my enemy!]
[Fourth Raikage: So, you're the Uchiha Itachi who massacred your clan, killed your parents, and slaughtered your kin. Although we believe you'd dare kill your brother, Sasuke has grown by the time of this future, and you still haven't killed him. So, we'll take care of it!]
[Itachi Uchiha: Then you should worry about your head instead of your arm!]
[Fourth Raikage: Uchiha Itachi, you're too bold! Do you think our Cloud Village is like Konoha? If you dare to come, I'll kill you!]
[Kakashi: Actually, there's no need for everyone to worry too much. The future is unpredictable. Maybe Sasuke will leave Orochimaru and won't be an enemy to everyone. For instance, the Golden List livestream has undoubtedly changed the future. Like during the attack on Konoha, Orochimaru's damage was minimized precisely because of the information shared in the livestream room. The Sand Village shinobi learned about Orochimaru's plans in time and didn't become our enemy.]
[Tsunade: That's true. If it weren't for the Golden List livestream, I wouldn't have known about Konoha's situation in time and rushed back.]
"Indeed, the Golden List livestream has changed my plans!"
Orochimaru nodded slightly. He hadn't intended to take Sasuke so soon, but with the appearance of the Golden List livestream, he feared that Sasuke's curse mark would be removed. After all, the livestream room had all kinds of people, and the rewards on the list were too tempting. If Sasuke developed other ideas, it would be troublesome.
Therefore, he immediately took Sasuke away after the attack on Konoha, not giving Konoha a chance to react. And this had altered the future!
[Third Hokage: Fourth Raikage, your future card can be used three times, right? How about using it again? This time you lost an arm; in the future, you might lose your life. So, it would be good to check and avoid dying in the future!]
