Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 210 I want the Third Hokage to watch his funeral.

That person…

The person who was used as a tool?

That person, in turn, treated everyone as a tool.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes widened in surprise as he recalled a name they frequently mentioned: that was the only person everyone wanted to use as a tool.

This…

How could that be?

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi could no longer stand up, and even his soul had been taken away by the Grim Reaper. He was completely silent, and his body struggled to fall to the ground!

"Let's go!"

Orochimaru gave a stern order.

Orochimaru knew very well that his mission was complete, and if he stayed in Konoha, he would likely be killed by Akihara Kagura for his achievements!

Especially since this was when he was at his weakest, with the souls in his hands sealed, he didn't even have the ability to resist Akihara Kagura!

The four members of the Sound Village who had set up the Four Purple Flame Formation immediately dispelled the barrier, rushed to Orochimaru's side, dropped a smoke bomb, and hurriedly rescued Orochimaru!

far away.

Akihara Kagura removed her headband.

Karin stood beside Akihara Kagura with a group of Root ninjas.

"Go and bring Orochimaru back."

Kagura Akihara waved her hand, signaling Karin to lead a group of Root ninjas over: "He's at his weakest right now. Don't worry about his feelings. Tell him I can help him resolve the Reaper Death Seal."

"yes!"

Karin and a group of Root ninjas flew towards the outskirts of Konoha Village.

The Sound Four wanted to escape Konoha with Orochimaru, but Orochimaru had become a burden and could not move quickly. Their chakra and stamina were also no match for the Root ninja who were ready to unleash their power.

Konoha Village.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's body lay on the high platform.

The ninjas of Sunagakure were still fighting the ninjas of Konoha, and even the genin were fighting each other. Gaara was unable to break through the stalemate and, in a fit of temper, released Shukaku again, capturing all the other genin with his Sand Claws!

"I'll protect everyone! Ninja Art: Summoning Jutsu!"

Naruto Uzumaki unceremoniously borrowed the Nine-Tails' chakra and directly summoned Gamabunta. The giant Gamabunta sat down on Shukaku!

Perhaps because it was because of the beating of Shukaku, Kurama didn't hesitate to lend Naruto a little of its chakra so that he could use the summoning jutsu.

"I kill you!"

Gaara stood on Shukaku's head, frantically manipulating the yellow sand to sweep towards Naruto, but Gamabunta shattered the sand with a single slash!

However, their battle ended there.

Vines sprouted from the ground, immediately alerting Gaara and Shukaku to something ominous—that familiar chakra and power…

"Retreat immediately!"

"Akihara Kagura is here!"

"Hurry up and get out of here! Akihara Kagura is back!"

The ninjas of Sunagakure shouted for a retreat, because they had already been instructed to do so and had already witnessed the terror of Akihara Kagura!

Those are the Hidden Mist Ninja who can easily suppress riots by themselves; their strength is not much stronger than that of the Hidden Mist Ninja!

As for relying on Gaara and Shukaku's power...

This is ridiculous...

Everyone in Sunagakure knows that Shukaku was frequently bullied outside the village for a year, and the person who bullied it was Akihara Kagura.

"Let's retreat!"

Even Gaara has to admit that!

Gaara has already suffered two major losses at the hands of Karin, let alone facing an enemy like Akihara Kagura who can easily crush him!

As for the rampaging Shukaku…

This tailed beast had already suffered enough. When it saw the vines appear on the ground, it quickly retracted its body and hid back inside Gaara's body!

A group of Sand Village ninjas scrambled to escape from Konoha Village, fearing that if they were too slow, they would be left behind by Akihara Kagura!

"Hmph, the battle is almost over."

Gamabunta stared at the vines sprouting from the ground, puffing out smoke rings from his enormous pipe: "As long as Akihara Kagura comes over, none of these will be a match for him..."

"That's terrifying..."

Kakashi Hatake watched the group of fleeing Sand Village ninja and breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Just one person's name is enough to scare away all the enemies..."

The last person to leave behind such a deterrent effect...

It was his teacher, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

However, Akihara Kagura is even more terrifying than Namikaze Minato. He can intimidate an entire village's enemies into not daring to fight, and he can even actually resolve a battle by himself.

Just as Kakashi Hatake had thought.

The vines converged to form a tall vine wall, blocking all the Sand Village ninjas' hopes of escaping.

Tree roots emerged from the ground, capturing all the Sand Village ninja present and tying them to the wall, absorbing their chakra.

Akihara Kagura slowly walked into the arena, surveyed the chaotic scene, and gave her order: "Immediately send all the injured to the hospital!"

"Yes, Lady Kagura!"

A group of Konoha ANBU ninjas immediately agreed.

Because of the sacrifice of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the entire Hidden Leaf Village is in a state of leaderlessness, and Kagura Akihara, the Hokage's assistant, is currently the highest authority in the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

"Kagura-sama..."

A member of the Konoha Anbu knelt on one knee before Akihara Kagura and whispered, "Third Hokage-sama..."

"I saw it."

Kagura Akihara remained calm and said softly, "First, collect the remains of the Third Hokage and send someone to prepare a burial site at the memorial tablet. I'm a step too late; I've only just learned about Danzo Shimura's conspiracy with Orochimaru from his interrogation..."

"Yes."

The secret agent immediately agreed.

Too many variables have emerged in this Chunin Exam.

No one expected that Orochimaru and Danzo Shimura would suddenly turn violent at different times, directly causing the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, to die in the examination hall.

fortunately.

Konoha is not without its pillars.

Akihara Kagura's arrival immediately calmed people's hearts.

Although many people are dissatisfied with Akihara Kagura's style of doing things, it is very clear that Akihara Kagura's power is still there, enough to deter all enemies who have ambitions against Konoha.

Whether it's Sunagakure, Kirigakure, or a group of small or medium-sized ninja villages, as long as Akihara Kagura is still in Konoha, she is unlikely to cause any trouble for Konoha.

"Lord Jiraiya is back!"

This news also greatly boosted the morale of the Konoha ninjas!

The name of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha has been passed down in Konoha for a long time, and they are idols for many people.

Jiraiya, who had been away from Konoha for some time, returned to the village at this time and dealt with a group of enemies outside the village who wanted to attack Konoha.

The Chunin Exams threw Konoha into chaos.

Fortunately, Akihara Kagura was there, and all the Sand Village and Kirigakure ninjas who participated in the riot during the Chunin Exams were imprisoned. The Konoha ninjas escorted these rioters into the Konoha prison.

"..."

Jiraiya stood on the high platform, watching a group of ANBU ninjas collect his teacher's body, and looked at Akihara Kagura beside him: "Where's Orochimaru?"

"I've already sent people to hunt him down."

Akihara Kagura frowned and continued, "The ninja from Sunagakure caused trouble, attracting a lot of attention, and Orochimaru took the opportunity to escape with his men..."

"..."

Jiraiya slowly nodded, looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi's body, and sighed, "To sacrifice oneself to protect the village is a kind of luck for a ninja; at least he doesn't have to lie on his sickbed in his old age..."

"but…"

A hint of killing intent finally appeared in Jiraiya's eyes. He had completely given up hope of winning back his former best friend: "I can't let Orochimaru get away with this again!"

This time…

Orochimaru went too far!

In the past, Jiraiya only thought that Orochimaru's actions were too evil and that he had gone astray, and wanted to bring Orochimaru back to Konoha. This time, Jiraiya had to give up all his illusions. Orochimaru was a dangerous person who could endanger Konoha!

For Konoha…

That old best friend must be killed!

It's unclear whether Jiraiya will be able to successfully hunt down Orochimaru, but at least the Root ninjas have caught up with him, and a group of them have surrounded Orochimaru and the Sound Four.

"Did Akihara Kagura send you?"

Orochimaru stared at Karin and a group of Root ninjas, coldly cursing, "That bastard, is he trying to break the alliance now and use my head to pave the way for his becoming Hokage?"

"You think..."

"Can you take this opportunity to kill me?"

Orochimaru knew that these Root ninjas were up to no good, but at this moment his arm was burning with pain and he was unable to use any techniques.

If you want to fight...

We can't just use the Eight-Headed Serpent Technique directly, can we?

"Lord Orochimaru."

Karin, accompanied by a group of Root ninja, surrounded Orochimaru and the Sound Four, her attitude remaining respectful: "Lord Kagura said she can help you resolve the Reaper Death Seal problem..."

"Is that kid really that kind?"

Orochimaru frowned, unwilling to believe Karin's words.

Karin looked at Orochimaru and continued softly, "If we wanted to take action against Lord Orochimaru, we would have started killing him right now. Lady Kagura wants to meet with Lord Orochimaru, so I think she has important matters to discuss with him. Lord Danzo is also at the Root base..."

"..."

Orochimaru was silent for a moment, then continued, "There's no rush to meet now, lest we be discovered by the Konoha ninjas..."

"Then we'll have to forgive our rudeness."

Karin lowered her head, her respect abruptly ending at that moment.

next moment!

A group of Root ninjas swarmed forward!

The Sound Four immediately entered Cursed Seal state, desperately trying to stop the Root ninja's attack, but were met only with an even fiercer assault!

Unfortunately...

These Root ninjas also have cursed seal states!

One by one, the Root ninjas wearing masks raised their arms, each bearing a cursed seal bestowed upon them by Akihara Kagura. These seals transformed into black liquid flowing over their bodies, and pairs of black wings, like eagle wings, unfurled behind the Root ninjas!

The twelve Root ninjas easily defeated the inexperienced Sound Four. Their dual bloodline limit consisting of Sharingan and Wood Release, as well as the cursed seal bestowed upon them by Akihara Kagura, made it very easy for them to win against the Sound Four!

Orochimaru watched helplessly as his subordinates were captured one by one, his gaze gradually hardening. He stared intently at Karin, ready to pounce and kill at any moment!

"Lord Orochimaru."

"This place isn't far from Konoha."

Karin seemed somewhat helpless, and could only slowly raise her arm, continuing, "If we make too much noise, others might discover your whereabouts, and then Kagura-sama won't be able to cover for you anymore..."

"..."

Orochimaru had to admit that this was also a huge problem.

At that time...

Perhaps Akihara Kagura really will kill him instantly in front of everyone, with lightning speed, to prevent him from revealing any information.

"I bear Kagura-sama's Flying Thunder God Mark..."

Karin raised the Flying Thunder God mark on her arm and said softly, "Please believe in Lord Kagura's good intentions. Otherwise, he would have come in person this time. Moreover, Lord Danzo is also waiting for you at the Root base because he has important matters to discuss."

"I'll go with you."

Orochimaru slowly nodded.

"..."

A group of Root ninjas glanced at Karin.

When did this little guy learn to tell such big lies while wearing glasses? Everyone has seen how miserable Shimura Danzo was in Root.

late at night.

Konoha gradually calmed down.

The Chunin Exams caused such a huge uproar that Konoha had to increase its patrols. But everyone knew that this uproar was only just beginning and that an even more terrible crisis was brewing.

Both Sunagakure and Kirigakure have broken their alliance with Konoha, making the Ninja World War seem imminent, and some people in Konoha are filled with anxiety.

root base.

Akihara Kagura did not attend the meeting at the Hokage Building.

The fact that the two Hokage advisors did not seek him out as their Hokage advisor, but instead called Jiraiya to a meeting, clearly indicated that they wanted to arrange for Jiraiya to succeed as Hokage.

Kagura Akihara, the Hokage's assistant, was in his office, stroking a terrifying-looking mask in his hand. He had obtained this mask from a shrine built by the Uzumaki clan in Konoha Village.

"Lord Orochimaru has arrived."

Karin was the first to arrive and report to Akihara Kagura.

A group of Root ninjas followed closely behind, leading Orochimaru into the office. Orochimaru's face still showed some displeasure and anger.

"Kagura-kun".

Orochimaru saw Akihara Kagura sitting in a chair, and the anger on his face gradually dissipated, replaced by a smile: "Shouldn't you be thinking about how to become Hokage at this time? What did you bring me here for?"

"I'll help you resolve the problem of the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique."

Kagura Akihara reached out and put down the mask in her hand, explaining the principle of the Reaper Death Seal: "The essence of the Reaper Death Seal is to summon the Grim Reaper to devour all souls and sacrifices. I heard that part of your soul was sealed away by the Third Hokage before his death, and I specifically found a way to undo the Reaper Death Seal..."

"Oh?"

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Akihara Kagura with a hint of amusement: "Kagura-kun, did you prepare this in advance? Did you already know I would be sealed by the Reaper Death Seal? Why didn't you warn me?"

"Water only becomes valuable when a person is thirsty."

Kagura Akihara sighed, seemingly somewhat helpless: "I originally planned to tell you how to undo the Reaper Death Seal when Lord Orochimaru had run out of options..."

"But the Third Hokage's funeral is about to take place, and I want the Third Hokage to secretly witness his own funeral. A person's life is ultimately judged by his funeral, and this moment is very important to him..."

"Unfortunately..."

"The soul of the Third Hokage is inside the Shinigami's body."

"etc…"

Orochimaru felt like he'd misheard something, his brows furrowing deeply: "Kagura-kun, if I heard correctly, you want our teacher... to witness his own funeral?"

Third update!

If your boss dies, bring him back to life!

That way I can continue working for my boss!
