Narration system starting from Konoha

Screams echoed through the forest, but quickly ceased as Kong swiftly destroyed the body and ended the two spells.

Feeling the surging chakra within him, a smile appeared on Kong's cold and stern face.

The Sound Four became his nourishment, and their memories echoed in Sora's mind like a fleeting glimpse.

Various barriers, sealing techniques, and even the principles behind the ninjutsu used by the four people all surfaced in his mind, but none of them were useful at the moment.

He is neither Spider-Man nor a two-body entity, nor does he possess Earth Release chakra.

Tayuya's genjutsu? Uchiha Sora can't afford to lose face like that. The truly powerful genjutsu are all within the Uchiha clan; there's no need to put the cart before the horse.

Kong sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. He heard a light footstep; someone was coming.

The system space locked instantly, and I breathed a sigh of relief. It was Naruto, Shikamaru, and the others.

Opening his eyes and looking into the distance, he saw the figures of five people.

"Sora, thank goodness you're alright! We were so worried about you!" Naruto shouted.

Sora revealed a slight smile and said, "You've arrived. I didn't expect you to be here so quickly. The Sound Four weren't very strong, and I killed them all with smoke bombs."

However, Kabuto and Kimimaro appeared earlier and moved Sasuke away beforehand. You should still be able to catch up with him now. I'll rest for a bit and then come find you.

He then took off his ninja tool pouch and handed it to Naruto, saying, "These are the remaining smoke bombs; you can use them for self-defense."

Naruto nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring Sasuke back."

Naruto's idea was good, but unfortunately Sasuke's heart was filled with hatred. Only Orochimaru could help him quickly increase his strength and give him hope for revenge.

Naruto wants to bring Sasuke back to Konoha, but only if Sasuke kills Itachi Uchiha a few years later. Right now, he'd rather die than waste time returning to Konoha.

Naruto's face instantly turned ugly, and he said, "Narrator, don't talk nonsense. There are so many of us. Even if we have to cut off his leg, we'll take him back."

Sora said, “Sasuke is important, but you are all equally important. I don’t want any of you to lose your lives because of Sasuke, otherwise I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.”

Sometimes living is more painful than dying. There was once a three-person team where one person died, and of the remaining two, one was heartbroken and the other felt like he was living a life worse than death.

Shikamaru said, "It's rare to see Uchiha Sora speak so seriously. I've never seen him before. Don't worry, Sasuke is not only your brother, but also our comrade."

Although we are not familiar with him, Konoha has never abandoned its comrades.

"Let's go, we can't delay any longer, otherwise they might escape beyond the Land of Fire, and that would be a real problem."

This is also the first time Shikamaru has been serious.

"......"

Chapter 119 Pursuit

A gentle breeze rustled the treetops as Uchiha Sora sat cross-legged beneath a large tree.

He could sense an extremely powerful force hidden within him, which, once unleashed, would become terrifying.

An equilateral triangle appeared around the black dot on the arm that symbolized "becoming one with me".

However, the triangle was in a dark state at this time and was not activated. It was formed by absorbing the four cursed seals of the Sound Four.

After absorbing Tayuya, Sora had this feeling, but her thoughts were disrupted by Kidomaru, and she didn't have time to check.

The cursed seal on Kidomaru's body was used to strengthen the triangle in front, forming a more stable structure.

Try activating one of the triangles, and suddenly the spells seem to come alive, crawling all over the body, covering the arms and half the body in the blink of an eye.

Sora felt as if he had inexhaustible power throughout his body, and the rate at which his chakra was being consumed was twice as fast as usual.

Both speed and power increased exponentially, and Uchiha Sora roughly guessed the function of the Mysterious Triangle.

This is a mutated cursed seal that is controllable but lacks the power to corrode and Orochimaru's will.

With a "whoosh," Uchiha Sora vanished from his spot, slamming his fist into a large tree.

"Peng."

A huge crater appeared on the spot, and the hands formed a mudra:

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".

A massive, orange-red fireball erupted from his mouth, nearly twice the size of the powerful fireballs he usually used.

This is only one side of the triangle, which can be considered the first form of the cursed seal.

However, his cursed seal is different from Orochimaru's. The mutated cursed seal consumes chakra and, through changes in the cursed seal, simulates the power of Sage Chakra.

However, only one curse seal has been activated so far, and there is still a huge gap between it and the true immortal mode.

Two spell seals, "Boom!"

Circles of patterns extended from the curse mark and spread across his body, like tattoos, shimmering with a ghostly blue light.

A powerful aura instantly emanated from his body, and his chakra was rapidly depleted, almost at the speed of Uchiha's maniacal laughter.

With a series of flashes, afterimages appeared as they darted through the forest.

Cursed Seal State 2 is more powerful than Cursed Seal State 1, but given the current rate of chakra consumption, it probably won't last long.

Kong estimated that ten to twelve minutes was the limit for this body, and that was without activating the Uchiha Maniac Laughter.

Kong looked at the third curse seal and instantly activated it. Boom! Kong's eyes turned blood red, as if endless electric currents were surging inside his body.

The patterns on his body shimmered, and his shirt silently turned to dust. The patterns converged on his chest, forming a complex diamond-shaped pattern, much like Megatron from Transformers.

The lines continued to spread, from the cheeks all the way to the top of the head, and two bone horns of different lengths grew out.

The chakra in his body was being consumed rapidly, and a significant portion of it was depleted in the blink of an eye.

A powerful fireball technique was unleashed, the enormous fireball being at least ten times larger than usual.

Uchiha Sora didn't know how powerful the normal Sage Mode was, but even if his Cursed Seal 3 Mode wasn't as powerful as the real Sage Mode, the difference wouldn't be too great.

The curse mark on his arm dimmed instantly; after only a short while, a large portion of his chakra had already disappeared.

Kong estimated that once he activated Cursed Seal Three, he could only last for a maximum of two minutes with his chakra reserves.

However, he still has the Uchiha Maniac Laughter, so he can hold out for a little longer.

After this incident is over, he plans to test the power of combining the Uchiha Maniac Laughter and the Cursed Seal.

The system space has locked onto Naruto and his four companions, who are running wildly through the forest.

Once the curse seal is activated, movement speed increases instantly, allowing the user to traverse the forest.

"Swish, swish."

The sound of his body rubbing against the leaves continued to echo, and Uchiha Sora, shirtless, revealed his strong muscles.

I should have known better than to experiment with Cursed Seal 3. Luckily, I still have my lower body clothes on.

It seems I'll need to have a specially made, oversized uniform made of durable material made, or carry several sets with me. Otherwise, my shirt will rip off every time I activate Cursed Seal 3, which would tarnish my reputation as the handsome little prince of Uchiha Sora.

In the spatial scene, the five people are not moving very fast because they often encounter various traps set by Yakushi Kabuto.

The sky gradually darkened, and before we knew it, a day had passed.

Kimimaro and Kabuto slowed their pace. Traveling at night was a taboo for ninjas, as it made them vulnerable to ambushes and traps.

However, Naruto and his group of five continued on their journey, and at this point, the Byakugan began to take effect.

Traps and enemies can be easily spotted in the dark, though the speed is much slower.

He stomped his legs repeatedly on the tree, and the system space simultaneously locked his location to prevent enemies from lying in ambush.

Like a bat in the night, it moves forward silently, occasionally making a rustling sound as it rubs against the leaves and a soft thud as it treads on the trees.

The faint voices gradually reached Sora's ears. It was Naruto's team. Although they were still moving forward, their speed was slower than before because the visibility in the forest was now much worse.

Even though Neji is a genius of the Hyuga clan, he cannot use his Byakugan for reconnaissance for an extended period of time, otherwise his chakra will be exhausted before he catches up with the enemy.

"Looks like my speed is pretty good; I caught up with you so quickly."

Without a sound, the curse mark on his arm was removed, and it instantly contracted, forming a stable triangle once again.

"Ku, here's your ninja tool kit."

"Haha, no need, I still have a few left. You five can share them; they might save your lives in a pinch."

Sora emerged from the darkness.

Shikamaru glanced at him in surprise and said, "Sora, where are your clothes? Why are you naked?"

"It got damaged by tree branches, and it's too much trouble to wear it, so I'd rather not wear it at all."

[Uchiha Sora is dishonest; it was clearly destroyed during a ninjutsu experiment.]

Sora didn't bother with the narration, and the others didn't press for details. Ninjutsu was fundamental to a ninja, and even comrades rarely inquired about each other's ninjutsu.

"It's getting dark now, so let's find a place to rest first and continue our journey tomorrow morning," Kong said.

Kimimaro and Kabuto have stopped; the forest ahead is riddled with traps.

This is a narration that Kong saw later through the system space.

Rather than risking danger to move forward, it's better to conserve our energy.

Kimimaro is in a bit of trouble, but it's still within Uchiha Sora's expectations.

Now that we have a group of ninjas to assist us, we can take them down. The Nara clan can be considered the best support ninjas in Konoha.

If you can use your shadow to mimic the book and freeze it in place, even for just a few seconds, it's enough to affect the entire battle.

Kabuto Yakushi rarely participates in exhibitions in person; he'll probably run away with Sasuke immediately.

The group of six sat down together to discuss tomorrow's battle plan.

Kimimaro was originally a member of the Kirigakure Kaguya clan. He awakened the bloodline limit Shikotsumyaku, which allows him to grow bones anywhere on his body, which can be used for both offense and defense.

Tomorrow, Choji, Neji, and I will deal with Kimimaro, while the three of you will pursue Kabuto Yakushi.

Sora originally wanted to leave Shikamaru behind to deal with Kimimaro, which would save a lot of effort, but he eventually gave up on that idea.

Shikamaru follows Naruto and Kiba, offering them advice and strategies. His Shadow Imitation Technique can also buy them time in crucial moments.

Kabuto is too cunning; we need to use Shikamaru's intelligence, otherwise the others might suffer a great loss.

Everyone nodded, understanding what Sora meant. They had witnessed Shikamaru's strategic vision along the way, and had nothing but praise for Uchiha Sora.
