The sudden attack from Orochimaru made everyone unable to calm down, but Hiruzen, despite his old age, was still a Hokage!
He wasn't weak!
The body that was full of wounds suddenly transformed into that of a block of wood before Hiruzen moved away several meters from Orochimaru as his breathing became ragged.
Like a snake, Orochimaru smiled sweetly as he looked at his teacher. However, unlike in the original, where he had to summon the two previous Hokages to fight alongside him, this time, he believed he could fight Hiruzen on his own.
Where did this confidence of his come from?
"You have become stronger, Orochimaru." Hiruzen looked gloomily at Orochimaru, who was staring at him dangerously.
"Don't worry. I will take care of Konoha for you, and make it even better, so die peacefully and leave the position of Hokage to me, Sensei."
Yet, even so, Orochimaru wouldn't plan to tell Hiruzen how he got his powers and what kind of abilities he had. Still, even so, he had become much stronger, so strong that he probably could even fight Madara if this powerful ancestor of the Uchiha Clan came out of the death. Even if he couldn't defeat Madara, if he wanted to run away, even Madara couldn't stop him!
The power of the vampire.
He had gotten it from Shinra with Shinra's vampirism ability.
Yes, Orochimaru's life was in Shinra's hand, but he felt that this trade was worth it, especially when he also gained another power besides the improvement that he got from becoming a vampire.
Sui Sui no Mi.
This was the reason why he could turn all of the surrounding terrains into a similar one to that of water.
Frankly, Shinra felt weird when Orochimaru asked for this ability, but it suited him well, as there were many snakes that were good at swimming. Their bodies were adapted to move through water with their flexible, powerful bodies using a side-to-side motion.
More importantly, Orochimaru, more or less, loved to use the earth-type jutsu, so when he got this ability, he continued to train it, making himself able to swim faster on the underground, buildings, trees, and many others, and also went beyond by turning the landscape, no matter what it was, into a similar trait to a water.
So, let's imagine that a mountain moved like a wave, then smashed into you. What would happen?
Or, when you were pulled deep into the underground, inside the earth, and then were left behind by Orochimaru, who swam back and returned the terrain to normal. The force, gravity, weight, and everything inside the earth, which could even create a diamond, would crush anyone!
Sui Sui no Mi was a powerful Devil Fruit, especially because of its property that made the user able to pass through anything, as if everything were water.
Unfortunately, such a unique ability didn't work on living beings, which made Orochimaru sigh helplessly.
"..." Shinra.
Then again, Orochimaru's hobby became swimming.
However, Sarutobi knew nothing of that, and he thought that Orochimaru's jutsu came from "Earth Release: Hiding Like a Mole Technique," a technique that allowed the user to dig through the earth like a mole.
'But why is there no hole?'
After all, even if a mole could dig out the earth, it was still digging, but Orochimaru was like passing through, swimming, which made Sarutobi confused despite being known as the Professor. Yet even so, it was amazing for him to be able to deduce so much from that single confrontation, and even so, he wouldn't lose!
"Enma!"
"Hiruzen?"
With a puff of smoke, a gigantic white monkey emerged as it looked at its surroundings with confusion.
"I need your power!"
"Who are you going to fight with?"
"Orochimaru?"
"That disciple of yours? You should have killed him when you knew all of that!"
"I know!" Hiruzen felt an intense regret as he was unable to kill Orochimaru at that time. "But I am not before, and even if I use my life, I will kill him!" He knew that Orochimaru was dangerous, and he had to erase him for good!
Yet, inwardly, he also felt helpless, especially toward his other disciples, such as Jiraiya and Tsunade.
Why the heck did those two not come?
If those two had stayed in the village, then would all of this have happened?!
Yet, what could the two do?
Tsunade was afraid of blood, and she also had doubts about her little brother's death, and had trauma due to her lover's death.
As for Jiraya, instead of the Konoha, he worshipped the toad the most as it was the one who gave him everything, and the reason why he could become one of the strongest, standing with the genius Orochimaru, and the descendant of the Senju Clan, Tsunade.
"Are you ready?"
Yet, even if Hiruzen had summoned, the Monkey King: Enma, Orochimaru didn't show any fear and looked at the two as if he tried to provoke them.
"Don't get cocky, you little snake!"
The one who was angry wasn't Hiruzen, but Enman, this monkey, who was full of pride and felt annoyed by Orochimaru's cockiness!
"Don't let your guard down, Enma."
"You watch me out! I will be the shit of this snake! Let's go, Hiruzen!
As Enma finished his words, he shouted, "Transformation: Adamantine Staff!"
Then, as a puff of smoke emerged, the burly, gigantic white monkey disappeared and became a large, thick staff, which was carried by Hiruzen's petite body.
Adamantine Staff.
This was the unique technique of Enma, the Monkey King, which enabled him to turn into an extending and expanding staff that is as hard as adamantine. This allows him to be nearly impervious to damage.
Or, rather, Enma didn't think that anyone could break this defense!
"Let's go!"
"OOOOH!"
"Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"
As Hiruzen threw his shuriken, they started to multiply as they hurled toward Orochimaru!
This was the original jutsu of Hiruzen, the technique that he was most proud of, but—
"It's all fancy and useless."
Orochimaru only swept his blade, and the rain of shuriken was quickly blown away.
"....."
While Hiruzen was speechless, he didn't stop and used this chance to smash his staff at Orochimaru!
As the staff was about to smash, Hiruzen knew well that Orochimaru would definitely block this attack, but it didn't matter since as long as Orochimaru blocked this staff, Enma, who had transformed into the staff, would create a hand that would kill Orochimaru!
'Now!' 2x
It was only while it was true that Orochimaru would block Enma's Adamantine Staff instead of the image that they thought of, the large staff was bleeding after it was stabbed by the sword.
"IT HURTS!!!!"
As Enma's voice echoed, the battle was filled with silence.
