Reincarnated as Naruto, Garp template

'They're Konoha's pursuers!'

'Find a chance to kill him!'

"Lord Orochimaru has been kind to us; without them, our clan would have been wiped out long ago. We must do everything we can to buy Lord Orochimaru time to escape the Land of Fire."

"You're not coming out, are you?"

Upon learning of these people's thoughts, Kazan did not hesitate. His Conqueror's Haki surged forth like a tidal wave, crashing down upon them.

Dark red lightning lashed out, piercing through every corner.

"Ugh~"

In an instant, the figures of Ibri clan ninjas emerged from the smoke.

"I'll ask you one last time, where is Orochimaru?"

"Give up! We will never betray Lord Orochimaru!"

A person spoke loudly; it seemed to be the chieftain of the Ibri clan.

Kazan listened to his innermost thoughts but received no answer.

"It seems even you don't know where Orochimaru has fled to."

"In the end, Orochimaru only saw you as disposable pawns."

Since Orochimaru set his sights on immortality, he has transformed into a cold-blooded snake.

In his eyes, there are only people who can be used and those who cannot, people who have value and people who have no value.

"Even if we are used as pawns, it is something we do willingly."

"Without Lord Orochimaru, our clan would have long since vanished into the dust, and history would never have known that we ever existed."

The opponent roared, and a cloud of smoke surged toward Kazan.

Kazan remembers.

Kakashi was almost killed by this smoke in the story. If it weren't for that little girl named Yukimi, there wouldn't have been a Kakashi team.

"Stubborn and obstinate".

Kazan clenched his right fist and then slammed it into the air.

"Fist bone!"

"Charge!"

With a single punch, the very space seemed to tremble, unleashing a torrent of powerful aura and chakra.

boom!

All the smoke was dispersed by this punch, and the entire Ibri clan hidden within trembled violently, unable to withstand even this punch from a distance. They were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings.

With just one punch, all the Ibri clan ninjas lost their fighting ability.

"Wind Release!"

"Fire escape!"

"Tudun!"

Just then, a fluctuation of chakra came from behind Hibari.

Everyone was wearing masks and was highly trained.

"Kazan, the Demon God of Konoha, I'll take your 20 billion ryo head!"

The Five Elements Escape Technique arrived in the blink of an eye.

Kazan simply stomped his foot on the ground, and an earthen wall quickly rose up, blocking all attacks.

"People from the Root?"

"And you're even posing as bounty hunters on the black market? Your names have already been erased from Konoha's ninja register, haven't they?"

That's for sure.

When Danzo sent Root ninjas to obstruct the operation, he had already erased all traces of these ninjas in Konoha.

of course.

These people are all ninjas from various ninja clans in Konoha. If we take them back for verification, we can confirm their identities just the same way.

But there's no point in doing that.

These people became Konoha's rogue ninja the moment they left the village.

They were well-trained and divided into two groups.

While one side was busy dealing with Kazan, the other side charged towards the Ibri clan.

"The target is those Wood Release test subjects."

Kazan used his Observation Haki to probe in their direction.

Then, he discovered many special life forms, which should be the experimental subjects of Wood Release.

"In that case, you can all go and die."

Kazan flashed to the side of a Root ninja and threw a punch.

Bang!

With just one simple punch, the ninja was sent flying, his chest pierced through, leaving him with no chance of survival.

But this is just the beginning.

In the blink of an eye, Kazan appeared in front of another person and delivered another punch, instantly exploding the person into a cloud of blood mist.

The people at the root did not sit idly by and wait for their doom; they quickly formed hand seals and used various means to delay the inevitable.

They never thought they could defeat Kazan.

That's impossible. Konoha's Demon God is the strongest ninja in the world, with combat power comparable to the First Hokage.

Boom boom boom~

They unleashed the Five Elements Escape Technique from their mouths, striking the domineering defense, but it couldn't even touch Kazan's skin.

immediately.

A gigantic rocky hand burst forth, crashing down like a mountain.

Puff puff puff puff~

More than a dozen Root ninjas were wiped out in a single strike.

Kazan did not linger; he took to the air and flew towards the deepest part of the Ibri clan.

The remaining Root ninjas saw this and attempted to defend themselves.

But then they saw Kazan tear open a scroll, grab a decapitation sword, and swat it down.

"Gods, beware!"

puff~

A terrifying burst of blood-red light shot into the sky, and heads were blown off one by one by this attack.

Kazan did not go to see the headless corpses.

He entered a cave where the Ibri clan's Wood Release experimental subjects were kept.

There were more than a dozen of them, all soaking in the nutrient solution.

The cells of the first generation were too vigorous; if implanted directly into the body, they would be eroded.

Only a very small portion can be injected, and only by growing together with the child can the Wood Release be recreated.

He walked in carrying a large knife, still dripping with blood, and in front of him were two children.

One of them is Yukimi from the Ibri clan, and the other, unsurprisingly, is the second Wood Release ninja, Yamato, whose real name should be Tenzo.

"Which way did Orochimaru escape in?"

Yamato did not respond, but shielded Yukimi behind him and drew the sword from his back.

Kazan swung his decapitation sword, sending Yamato flying and embedding him into the wall.

"You think you're so great just because you've learned Wood Release?"

Xuejian belatedly realized what was happening and ran over shouting "Tianzang".

She tried to pull her brother out, but found that she couldn't pull him out at all.

"Don't worry, he won't die. Although he can only use Wood Release to build a two-bedroom apartment, he has been implanted with the First Hokage's cells, so he won't die so easily."

"Go and release Kakashi, the one you captured. Tell him to come here, or I'll chop you all up."

Chapter 186 Naruto and Sasuke

Boom!

Dark red lightning resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

The border of the Land of Fire.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru stared at each other from a distance of more than ten meters.

"Come back to the village with me, Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya stared at Orochimaru with an expression similar to Naruto's when he first stared at Sasuke at the Valley of the End.

"Go back for what?"

"Are we going to our deaths?"

Orochimaru remained calm; he had already noticed the dark red lightning descending from the sky.

He knew that his junior brother had caught up with them.

He didn't have much time; he had to escape the Land of Fire immediately.

With that, Orochimaru turned around decisively.
