Naruto: Uzumaki Yuji [EN]

In the immensity of the forest, every single one of the teams heard a scream that is no different from others, the scream was so powerful and heart‐wrenching that they trembled. The nearest ones, with incredible curiosity, approached, thinking it was an unfortunate boy who died at the hands of enemy teams.

The ones who inevitably became curious about those screams that sent shivers through their entire bodies were teams 10, 8, and the Guy team, which at that moment came to the aid of team 7 that was being attacked by some Sound ninjas.

Sasuke had broken the arms of a Sound ninja, Zaku, and all so that they would get lost, showing his superiority to everyone present, the malice oozing from Sasuke's pores, although the curse mark had already calmed down, this time they were very weak.

Ino helped Sakura, who already had her hair cut, Rock Lee was somewhat injured, although with the previous fight from that boy's team it was difficult, it did leave him somewhat hurt. Rock Lee's team only arrived after Sasuke deactivated the mark and, consequently, those Sound ninjas fled.

Naruto was barely opening his eyes because of the deafening scream.

" w-who can scream so horribly!? " Ino murmured with her hair on end, the screams doing nothing but increasing.

Shikamaru noticed how Neji was tensing up, clenching his knuckles while looking in a specific direction.

" I think that... it is about a team that we have already faced before " murmured the one with pearl eyes, now directing his gaze to everyone else, noticing how some were injured and others were somewhat agitated.

" That brat? What are they doing to him? Can you see them? " demanded Sasuke, now sitting on the ground, leaning against one of the logs.

Neji adjusted his vision, and what he saw surprised him. " It's strange, from here... I feel threatened, his chakra is out of control, his power keeps increasing more and more, his chakra is coming out more corrupted " Neji said, still in surprise. Unconscious, Sakura directed her gaze toward Sasuke, after all, it was what she believed had happened in those moments with the Uchiha.

" Chakra corrupted? " he got up carefully, once again feeling his inner power. Sasuke imagined that that snake had something to do with it, he looked at his team, curiosity in his eyes.

But his transformation sounds even more painful, does that snake perhaps think that he is not worth enough for him not to give him more of his power?

" Sakura, take care of Naruto, I have to look " the boy said firmly as he ran, climbing the treetops, all because something was resonating within his being.

" Sasuke, you too are injured! " Sakura got up to see how Naruto was rising, somewhat dazed.

" Sakura-chan? What is happening? " the blond boy spoke haltingly, but seeing how Sakura continued following Sasuke, forcing him to regain his composure " Sakura-chan! What is happening!? Where is Sasuke heading, wait, stop! " the boy said quickly.

The other teams looked at each other, despite being in an exam, it was impossible for them to ignore their comrades who were in danger.

" Damn it! These are injured and they are leaving after we saved their asses! Let's go, Akamaru! " came the little bark of his dog as it ran toward where these inept ones had fled.

Shino said nothing, following Kiba calmly, while Hinata appeared worried about Naruto.

In the end, everyone was dragged by the first team, all out of their concern, they did not imagine that they were very close to the one who had hurt Sasuke so much.

Shino analyzed the surroundings and found something unusual, far from that place there was a disfigured girl with a terrible complexion, her breathing labored and barely conscious.

" Hinata, help me in this direction " he said to the pearl‐eyed girl. The young woman nodded, heading toward that girl who seemed to be a ninja from Amegakure, separated from her own team.

Upon arriving, Shino crouched down to look at her, the girl activated her Byakugan to see inside, surprised by the fact that her chakra was very turbulent.

" She is in a genjutsu " Hinata whispered, as Shino nodded silently.

" And it seems that she is poisoned " Shino whispered, he believed that she was a member of the team of that heart‐wrenching scream.

" he...lp help... hi-m... " her voice was barely audible, broken and weak, Ajisai could barely enunciate her words, broken, the girl from Amegakure no longer cared to plead.

She only wanted them to help her friend, whom she considered an annoying younger brother.

Shino narrowed his eyes behind his glasses. " Who do we help? "

" Hel... p... hi-... "

She kept repeating those words, unable to say more, her consciousness turning dark.

And as she fainted, her summoning that was very close to that area disappeared, letting Suiren fall, who, due to the strong blow, ended up waking up, still weak, but finally managing to notice that he was still in the immensity of the forest.

But he was lost.

Hinata looked at Shino with concern, this boy, upon seeing that she fainted, hid her in that area so that no one would see her. If she was lucky, it would last at least until her own team managed to get out of the forest. He had no antidotes to offer, he only refused Hinata, watching as the sweet and timid girl appeared sad because of the disfigured one.

And now, the other teams arrived at a feasible vision. Sasuke clenched his fists in rage upon seeing that ninja, still in that form just as he had left him before biting his neck. " That is it, that ninja was the one who did all this to us " he growled in fury, clenching his fists.

Sakura instinctively moved away, her heart beating at a rapid pace, fear permeating her skin.

Naruto was about to charge but was stopped by Choji. " That bastard! I will teach him a lesson now that I'm fine! I'm not weak, let me go, Choji! " he struggled forcefully, but Shikamaru silenced him.

" Silence, it doesn't seem like he is paying attention to us, his gaze is... "

Everyone directed their gaze to the only red point that was visible.

Because the screams had finally ceased.

...

In the sepulchral silence of the forest, Yūji, who was holding his sister, until falling to his knees with her in his arms ceased his lamentations.

His eyes went blank, his body unconscious yet not collapsing, with muffled sounds due to his erratic breathing and spontaneous tremors in every part of his being.

Until finally, it fell silent.

Orochimaru analyzed and wondered, " Why is that boy screaming as if he were being killed multiple times? " Sasuke was not affected in that way by the curse mark, yes, it is painful, but not to the point where one screams as if dying.

He licked his lips for the simple fact that this little boy did not fall directly into unconsciousness, on the contrary, he had enough willpower to endure it. His dear Uchiha did not have that strength, but this boy... had a very strong and unique vital body, which only his scientific mind was contemplating multiple theories.

This body full of vital force, or his beloved Uchiha?

When he had both and analyzed them, that was when he would think about what to do.

" How interesting... oh? " Now he truly thought that that boy would fall unconscious, but once again he was surprised, the curse mark of the sky began activating.

Slowly, that red‐haired boy got up from the ground where he had fallen, leaving his sister on the ground, but that made him unconscious.

Without lifting his head, his body took about two small steps, swaying from side to side for lack of proper balance.

The shirt he wore was torn apart by his own hands, as everyone present saw how from the curse mark on the boy, black symbols began to spread.

These were black lines, they spread like a river all over his body.

And finally, the boy who said nothing and swayed became motionless.

Everyone present heard how the little boy began to laugh, unlike the one they knew, his laugh was not the sweet and cheerful one he always had, this one was rougher and sadistic, a laugh that anyone who heard it would think belonged to a sadistic man.

Unlike Sasuke, whose cursed mark spread, this was different, the tattoos returned just as they did in the good old days for Sukuna.

They were the tattoos that appeared when he used his preferred vessel, Yūji.

" Orochimaru-sama! We heard screams in your direction, we... " to the scene arrived the Sound ninjas who had attacked Sasuke as they were ordered, but everyone fell silent to look at the center of the forest.

It was another of his lord's objectives.

Orochimaru paid no attention to the trifles he had at his side, his golden irises, like a snake, analyzed every movement.

For some strange reason, his own body was reacting to a palpable emotion.

" Yes... this, the sweet elixir of true greatness, this environment... so different from what I know, surrounded by this abundant and unique energy, now that I know it, I can absorb it, I can contain it, this is how a king should emerge, at the most unexpected moment " he said to himself, no longer carrying the air of a small child, it was as if he spoke like a man who had lived long enough to possess the wisdom of a sage.

Unlike when he first went out previously and met the heir of the Six Eyes, he no longer felt excited by the slaughter.

Not yet.

And with excitement, he tore off those black bandages that Yūji wore, the heat hitting his eyes, the strong light.

Studying this environment and learning, he continued testing his body. " Yūji's brat has a rather unique body that he has not realized, a body full of vitality and that was perfect for absorbing that mysterious third synergy, all it needed was the link, how amusing, so much power and all because of these disgusting humans, you stopped " he said, looking at the girl who was on the ground, amused, he kicked her away until Karin's body struck terribly against a bark.

The girl woke up, letting out a cry of agony, squinting her eyes in confusion, unable to focus her surroundings.

The boy inhaled more air, opened his arms, and finally raised his face, his eyes were no longer that subtle red combined with brown and lilac, now they were only red, red as deep as blood itself, beneath those, two small eyes of a color as if the sky were contained within them looked in every direction. Smoothing his hair back in the process, it's like seeing another person in Yūji's body.

The face of the tattooed boy with the marks " I WILL HAVE FUN PLAYING WITH ALL OF YOU! I will harvest again the feast of rain of blood, with your organs hanging as if it were my liberation party. " shouted with total joy, as if the world belonged to him.

He realized that there were many people in this place.

The teams trembled, watching in surprise as the boy changed his appearance, it was evident that his hair had grown a little more.

But his essence is not the same.

" T-This is like... " Sakura fell silent, glancing sideways at Sasuke, who pressed his lips together.

He also has the curse mark, Sasuke believed that the boy behaved that way because he is blinded by power and arrogance.

Naruto was surprised, he had always thought that boy was just someone weak, until he himself felt intimidated.

Neji was tense, seeing that the inner area where the boy's chakra was supposed to be was no longer what he had known of chakra. " H-he, this... I don't know what he is doing, his chakra is changing a lot, I think that is no longer chakra "

" What do you mean it's not chakra? " asked Tenten in surprise, as she had never seen Neji behave like that.

" No... this is much more dangerous than I imagined, we must not interfere, we have to escape right now " Neji whispered, his intonation trembling.

And everyone in that area felt intimidated —a cold wind as if winter itself were falling in the forest— because, after all, Sukuna was easily letting his cursed energy flow at will, unlike before, everyone was able to see him.

It was not chakra.

It was not cursed energy.

It was a new, unknown energy that only made Orochimaru ecstatic, to see that from that little one whom he desired solely for his Uzumaki lineage.

Now he desired him even more.

" What damned thing is coming out of him? It's enormous, we have to run " Shikamaru said for the first time, nervously, as a bubbling mantle erupted from Yūji's body, this mantle changed repeatedly between blue, purple, and red, it did not have a stable consistency, in fact, it was very aggressive.

It felt dangerous.

For his part, the now awakened Sukuna continued enjoying as if it were a unique moment for his being, rolling on his own axis even with his arms spread out. " Yes, eight years imprisoned, it is my payment for living in your shadows, Yūji "

" Because of the curse of the sky, you have developed a double personality, how sweet, Yūji-kun " Orochimaru smiled amusedly, it reminded him of Jugō when he lost control trying to manipulate senjutsu.

Finally, Sukuna looked at him with amusement, his crazy expression saying " I have seen that you have fought very well, you are someone strong, show me more of yourself! Entertain me before I kill you! " that was the only thing the boy demanded of him, that crazy gesture even surprised Orochimaru.

" I think senjutsu is more like a poison for him... " was what the sannin thought as he watched that an essence, which did not resemble chakra and was far too malicious, it wasn't senjutsu either was emanating from his body.

What is it?

" Well, now... " Sukuna cracked his neck to begin his own warm-up.

" Let's play "

No sooner had those words been uttered than a sense of alert was triggered in Orochimaru, his snake-like eyes moved in multiple directions, a terrifying sign that at any moment they could kill him.

He had to leap forcefully because, where he was standing, that boy appeared, laughing in a way he had never imagined, his demonic laughter accompanying the blow.

In a moment, the entire area was left destroyed and filled with debris, an earthquake in the Forest of Death began alerting everyone.

Kiba looked at the area as Shino and Hinata took the team of that boy, who at that moment was acting crazily, as if the ecstasy of battle were very strong. " Hinata, Shino! Run away right now! " ordered the boy with red marks on his cheek. Shino nodded wordlessly after carrying the injured and dispersing.

He did not deny it, a cold sweat ran down his neck under the oppressive pressure exerted by the boy at that moment, as if he were the executioner reaping souls that day.

Sukuna remained standing at that moment, taking small jumps upon seeing the destruction of his area.

He had flattened that part of the forest with a single stomp.

He clenched his hand and kept opening it repeatedly. " You idiot Yūji, it was so simple that you only had to absorb that third energy, your body was perfect for that and you never realized it! In the end, you did what I did when I was born for the first time, you devoured your mother from within, all her vitality, all her energy, you absorbed it to turn this body into a perfect body to sustain our power " Sukuna said quite amusedly, as if Yūji were listening to him, but of course.

He made sure that no one interrupted him at that moment, he did not want any undesired interruptions.

Orochimaru was stuck with the soles of his feet in a nearby spot, surprised by all the mess that a single blow from Yūji had caused.

He felt different, he was different.

It is possible that his power comes from that thick, bubbling mantle that moved uncontrollably.

He no longer cared to wait. Orochimaru, with greedy eyes, licked his lips with his long tongue, watching as the boy directed his gaze at him in the same way, and smiled just like him.

Both were crazy.

Sukuna still did not want to use his techniques, on the contrary, he wanted to test the durability of this unique body, it is very different from the vessel that Kenjaku had made for Yūji, this body feels much better than he had known.

Orochimaru, without wiping his smile, began making seals in Yūji's direction. " Yūji-kun, I wanted to wait until you finished the exams, but I don't think I can stand not taking you right now! " he said in a curious tone, as befits the snake.

Sukuna, still without moving, watched his seals, though he smiled amusedly while waiting for him to launch his technique.

He was curious how much his body could endure, or if it had something special.

Orochimaru, now ready to unleash his technique, after finishing the seals, inhaled deeply. " Fire Style: Great Infernal Flame " An enormous blaze erupted, so large that even for a Jōnin it would be difficult to escape.

The execution speed of this jutsu was also very admirable.

Sukuna did nothing, he saw the fire coming out of there, his crazed and pleasure‐thirsty smile for the marked battle, he will receive it head‐on.

He wants to experience pain once again. Therefore, he did not use infinity or anything like that, in a battle, he preferred to suffer and injure himself to take into account the level of his toy.

Orochimaru believed that he would dodge that attack, furrowing his eyebrows in concern, he did not want such a unique specimen to die because of a mistake, he needed to keep him alive!

Everything fell silent again, only the trees consumed by the jutsu that he unleashed remained, now it truly looked like an infernal forest.

Orochimaru opened his eyes and his smile became palpable on his face " this is... incredible "

It was the only thing he could say, standing there, Yūji's body was without skin, his face was melted, showing his muscles, his clothes were torn off, almost leaving him naked if it were not for the garment that protected him, his skin had disappeared.

In some places, even the bones, such as his spine or his ribs, were showing.

But what made Orochimaru feel more need for that boy was that Yūji did not die, he was not completely calcined.

His body began a regeneration that he had never seen before, it does not resemble medical ninjutsu, nor Tsunade's mitotic regeneration.

"This has only been seen in those who use Hashirama's cells!"

Yūji recovered his skin in seconds, and all the wounds he had disappeared, as if he were not about to be calcined.

Sukuna shifted, watching his body with great pleasure " yes, this body is very similar to the one Yūji had before, only that this one has an astonishing regeneration, I didn't even have to use RCT to heal at this speed, it is a body blessed for me " he let out small laughs to see that snake again, he noticed its greed, but licked his lips.

" you all, attack that boy with all your power right now " ordered Orochimaru, wanting to experiment more with that little boy, the redhead only let more of his desire be known.

The Sound ninjas who were hidden came out, Dosu, Zaku, and Kin prepared their movements to attack that brat, they did not deny it, they saw how that boy regenerated, but they attributed everything to the curse mark.

With amusement and haughtiness, Sukuna gave them a look full of disdain " do you think me someone inferior to fight with these rags? "

he said to Orochimaru, ignoring those ninjas.

Dosu clenched his hands at that moment, his only eye revealing all his anger " we are not scraps! "

Sukuna continued without paying attention, but he saw how these were launching their technique, at least two of them since one attacked because he had both arms broken.

What interested him was that he saw perfectly the sound waves that burst from two ninjas, the same sound waves began to eat away more of the worn‐out ground, all heading towards Sukuna, who was looking in multiple directions with his four eyes.

" so you want to play, well, I'll give you a bit of the same " his tone sounded as if it were a casual day after sunrise, he placed his hand on the ground.

The splitting technique took effect, multiple symbols like a spiderweb spreading out, Sukuna now protected himself with infinity so as not to be touched by the vibrations.

' those techniques, I have never seen them, keep showing me more, little Yūji‑kun ' was the only thing the snake could think.

He saw how the ground, as it filled with those spiderwebs, cracked, it was as if it were cutting the ground itself.

This caused the Sound ninjas, due to the vibrations before he launched the attack, to jump, and everyone saw with intimidation how the place where they were was cut multiple times.

' h‑he is powerful, then that's why Orochimaru‑sama wants him! '

Sukuna found it all quite amusing, hiding like mice and launching stealth attacks, ninjas are not like sorcerers, sorcerers always charged at him to kill, these think and make strategy.

It is a shame that they too ended up like the sorcerers in their time.

Dead.

All dead.

Orochimaru launched his snake assault technique, multiple snakes came out of his sleeve to head towards the boy, Sukuna noticed it, but he no longer cared, using infinity, those snakes collided as if with an invisible wall that could not be passed in order to even touch a thousandth of his skin.

Orochimaru panted with desire " space‑time ninjutsu! Yūji‑kun! You have so many secrets, I only want to capture you at this very moment "

his madness and desire could no longer be hidden behind that mask.

" because you were someone who gave me this energy, I am letting you witness the magnificence of this superior being, appreciate what you gave me, because you will die at this moment "

his gaze was now already lost in the glow.

At this moment, he had enough power from this unknown energy, something that in these sane moments of his presence, he noticed that the mysterious energy was not permanent.

It was disappearing when he used his techniques, and it had dropped a lot when using infinity, but his reserves of CE and the chakra, which are now somewhat fused, remain stable due to the unique control of the Six Eyes.

" enjoy this that I will show you, unknown ninja "

in front of Orochimaru's eyes, he did not interrupt him, on the contrary, he was alert that another wonder this little boy was going to show him.

" because this will be the last thing you can witness with your life "

Sukuna would not use any of Gojo's cursed technique, he would use blood manipulation.

He will have to leave at least the body somewhat intact to be able to consume it, as in his old times. Since this is at least the true body and, of course, it contains techniques that he will have to assimilate.

" you, damned arrogant one " Dosu said with his eyes filled with anger, with one of the jutsus that Orochimaru‑sama gave his companions

" Bell Clone! " was what he said to launch his genjutsu.

Sukuna did not move, interested in the sound techniques they provided him, it is something very weak in comparison to the curse speech of the Inumaki.

But everything that is new will be very welcome.

It is a shame that these little vermin are so weak.

" do not bother me, you " without even looking at them, he used dismantle, Dosu looked with his open eye in surprise at how something was coming toward his place.

He continued watching despite his body being split in half vertically, his organs, his skull, his muscles, everything was seen in perfect layers, the blood came out like Sukuna's favorite rain, watching as the body fell with a dull sound.

The only thing he did was let out a small amused laugh.

" DOSUUU! SON OF A BITCH! " shouted the other Sound ninja who did not have his arms injured, Kin launched the attack, his rage blinded his intelligence as he went with a short sword in hand, only thinking about how he wanted to kill that brat.

Zaku got up trembling from the ground

" Kin, don't do it, sto-!! " he fell abruptly, because what followed was a viscous sound.

Like the sound of flesh tearing, bones twisting, and the endless dripping inundated his ears.

Kin stopped millimeters from that boy's face, the hand in which he was holding the knife flew away, he saw the face of that brat with his eyes about to pop out of their sockets.

Now he no longer saw a boy.

He saw a demon.

As he looked at him filled with disdain and boredom.

" you are someone so pathetic and weak, that I need nothing more than my hands to kill you "

his voice was cold like a winter, and stabbing like thousands of kunai.

" G‑Gha " when he tried to speak, he vomited blood, when he looked at the hand that was extended by the redhead boy.

He only found that that hand had pierced him very close to his heart, but it did so in the area of his thorax.

Sukuna smiled happily at witnessing the blood and how that brat was drowning in his blood

" I did not want to kill you instantly, it is more painful to drown, not being able to breathe, to die in an instant, falling into the madness and despair of living, HAHAHA YES! BEAUTIFUL CHANTS FOR ME! " shouted the boy forcefully as he withdrew his hand, Kin felt as if he was abandoned.

He was drowning, he could no longer breathe, he fell to the ground making painful groans, his mouth opened wanting to take in air, but nothing reached his lungs.

With desperate longing for his life, a face full of tears and constant terror brought his only hand to his neck.

In the end he died from his own blood.

" D‑Dosu, Kin, damn it " Zaku, the only one left on the team, was full of tears, when that boy turned to look at him, he became motionless and terrible tears filled his face, he could not move.

That demon will surely follow him.

But contrary to what he thought, he only gave him a malicious smile and headed towards Orochimaru‑sama.

The snake who had seen the sadistic side continued thinking that it was because of the seal that he placed on him, it seems that in order to be able to take him, one must first seal his own curse mark, he licked his lips.

It will be a challenge, because he has witnessed that that strange tumult of energy surrounding the boy has not decreased in the least, he will have to abstain since, if it were a problem, he does not know if that boy has constant regeneration.

" it is possible that the boy, because of my curse mark, has more potent regeneration due to his Uzumaki heritage, ah, it is a problem " his raspy voice only for him.

In the end, Sukuna, with amusement, pointed his hand directly towards him, Orochimaru became alert to the threat.

He only saw his demonic smile " try to dodge this, snake "

It was the only thing Orochimaru needed to try to dodge, not a thread of blood came out on the boy's palm, no, it came out as if it were a very powerful water style, the speed of that blood launch made Orochimaru put chakra on his feet and begin to dodge.

Where that sea of blood passed, it was destroying the entire forest, the corrosion was so potent that as soon as it touched a tree, the tree turned into ashes.

Seeing that made Orochimaru lick his lips in surprise.

" a Kekkei Genkai... "

He shuddered at the thought, now there was no doubt, he has to capture that boy.

The disaster on the scene they were creating was very dangerous to anyone who approached nearby, since Sukuna was laughing as if it were a happy moment, he was playing with that man, as if he were an eagle playing with its favorite food, a snake.

Because if he killed him, he was sure that the fun would end at that moment.

" run faster, little snake, come on, run faster! "

shouted Sukuna now with a crazed laugh.

That part of the forest no longer existed.

Because Sukuna is only playing.

...

" damn it, run fast, this is no longer part of the exam! We have to get to the tower! " shouted Shikamaru with concern to his comrades and all his acquaintances.

Sasuke sometimes had to look back since in the position he was in he heard the demonic laughter of someone he thought was a very docile boy.

Who would have imagined that he had a personality worse than his own when he activated his curse mark for the first time?

Recalling it made the pain in his neck become more constant, as he placed his hand on his neck unconsciously.

" we have to go help him and stop him! Maybe that snake has manipulated him to fall like this! "

as always Naruto, with his goodwill, tried to persuade his comrades, but Sakura stopped him.

" that is no longer our problem! That is that ninja's problem, our duty is to report this, I believe that this has gotten worse and is not part of the exam! If we do not stop him, not only will those ninjas suffer, it is possible that he will no longer care about the exam and initiate a unilateral massacre "

Rock Lee listened to what they were saying but then looked at the girl he had in his arms, Karin was awake, but she had no knowledge of whom they were talking about.

Being in the arms of the one with big eyebrows, he also had not seen that they had the pelimorada in bad condition, they would not help anyone from another village, but the pelimorada begged them for help.

They could not ignore it, especially for Naruto, everything centers on that annoying blond who touched everyone's heart.

Karin gasped in pain, not knowing how her team was doing, she only remembered that she was ambushed because of some Sound ninjas and everything went dark, waking up from a terrible blow, but she did not see who delivered it.

And now she is being rescued by a Leaf ninja.

" this must be known by the directors, if they haven't already realized it, the entire forest is being destroyed by that bestial fight " said an agitated Tenten, managing to hear the explosions and how the trees were falling in a steep descent, they are not small so that no one would notice that great fight.

Neji quickened his pace to try to reach the center.

...

Outside the field, the Jōnin who were enjoying moments before a casual outing were interrupted by Mitarashi Anko. Asuma, Kurenai, and Kakashi looked at him with surprise upon seeing how his face was twisted in concern.

" did something happen? " spoke Kakashi in a lazy voice.

" very serious, the Third Hokage sent me for you to help me inside the Forest of Death, this is a mission of high urgency and contingency! There are also a few ANBU already waiting for us in that area. " For the three Jōnin, it was possible that the girl was not lying, she looked very pale and did not have her usual mocking face.

Kakashi became somewhat serious, so much that he put the small book away in his compartment, he looked at his opposing teams, if only Guy were there, perhaps they could finish it more easily.

" it's all right, don't worry, guide us now "

Kurenai said to see how Anko nodded, the girl ran straight to training area 44, being followed by the respective Jōnin.

Everyone appeared serious, and upon arriving at that moment they heard the explosions, even far from the confrontation area.

It will be difficult.

" this is a classified mission, it is possible that Orochimaru has infiltrated the Chūnin exams, and that he is attacking teams right now, we have to head to the place of the explosions " spoke Anko firmly.

Kakashi tensed, since it is possible that he is in search of test subjects, Orochimaru is very well known for the experiments he caused in Konoha a long time ago.

With that, the entire group disappeared, their speed is no joke, they are so fast that in less than half an hour they will be in the confrontation area, being followed by a few ANBU from the rear.

The Chūnin exam is already a fiasco.

...

Sukuna stopped upon feeling that the combination of that third synergy had ended.

And when he did, he felt a terrible pain in his limbs, did he have time to use it?

" shit " he whispered to himself, visualizing his interior, his chakra and his cursed energy that had become one, although he still possessed the combination of the three energies, not all of it had fused.

He was already angry, he looked around, a third of the enormous forest had disappeared, leaving only him and that slithering snake visible.

He himself had flattened the surrounding area.

" this is shit, then I cannot use more of this, I will have to use pure cursed energy, or pure chakra "

he grumbled, watching as his tattoos disappeared from his skin.

He will have to learn to absorb energy with that body, but for now he will take care of killing that snake.

" you have bored me " Sukuna denied, launching his cursed technique, Cleave, towards Orochimaru.

This time, unlike Sukuna who was quite fresh from not having used even a tenth of chakra and cursed energy, all his attacks were precise and very powerful, but he remains firm!

Orochimaru had been analyzing the boy and had discovered that those small eyes underneath were very attractive, that penetrating blue, as if he saw his soul, made him shudder.

It is possible that, that is a dojutsu?

But he was just asking himself, with his chakra fatigue from using it to evade, he could no longer evade the powerful technique of that boy, he saw how his body was terribly torn apart.

Sukuna saw how that ninja fell straight to the ground, he scratched his hair quite boredly, it was entertaining, but is that all the ninjas had to give?

Orochimaru never attacked to kill, since for him, Yūji is something he wants to acquire alive.

" oh? " he turned upon hearing viscous sounds, encountering a curious scene, he saw him die, but from that mouth was expelling as if it were a shedding of skin.

There he encountered the same snake person who had eaten within his soul, he smiled amusedly.

" then does this mean that you will fight more? "

Sukuna was already quite ready in action.

Sukuna was preparing to attack, but he did not expect that he would be tied with some blue threads.

Upon turning, he found a girl who had a headband on her head and green hair.

She looked tired and scared, it was there that he recognized her.

She was the brat from Yūji's team, Suiren.
