Chapter 56 - Chuunin Exams Second Phase [3] (1/2)
Seeing the rising Chakra and murderous intent, Orochimaru liked his lips excitedly before his arms turned in three snakes each, shooting towards Naruto ''It doesn't matter what, your body will be mine in the future!'' the snake-like man said.
''Is that so?'' Naruto said while evading the six Snakes easily, then, he flickered in front of Orochimaru and punched out, his fist connected with Orochimaru's face and then, dragged him down all the way to the ground, a loud explosion being made as ground dust rose up.
The explosion attracted attention of the Jounins, principally Anko, that was investigating a certain member from Takigakure 'That can't be...' she thought before speeding up towards the Forest of Death. [1]
''Kukuku, how strong!'' Orochimaru said as his long tongue licked his lips in an excited manner despite the falling skin of his face ''Ah, I'm excited to see how you'll turn out, how you'll grow strong, Naruto-kun! When the time comes, your body will be mine!'' the snake-like man continued before disappearing within the
Naruto was utterly disgusted by the man weird habits so he didn't chase, deactivating the Kyuubi's One Tail Cloak, he noticed that Haku was gasping slightly, not moving even slightly ''Haku, are you ok?' the blonde teenager asked.
''Y-Yeah, I-I'm just... overwhelmed.'' Haku said as he gasped even more, inside Naruto's mind, Kurama said 'Kit, he's overwhelmed by the combined murderous intent from both you and the Snake Weirdo, also, why did you let him escape? If you used the Three Tails Cloak, killing him was actually possible.'
'Hmm, I just felt disgusted by him so I didn't chase him, besides, I feel something interesting will happen if I let him run away.' Naruto said, he could clearly feel that it wasn't Orochimaru full strength, if he wanted, activating the Three-Tails Cloak would give him an incredible boost in strength and would allow him to overwhelm the Snake Weirdo.
His current limit was using the Five Tails Cloak and even with that, it took a big burden on his body, not because it is weak or something, rather because he's still underdeveloped, his 12 year old body isn't developed well enough to take the backslash of using anything higher than Five Tails Cloak.
Kurama had also told him that his Tailed Beast Cloak is different, the Nine Tails Cloak is different from the rest but for that, it would wait for him to become 15 year old, where his body would be developed enough for it.
''Let's go back to Sasuke and Sakura, Haku, from the sound of it, they've probably finished with the huge Snake.'' Naruto said towards the long-haired, slightly feminine teenager, that nodded, ignoring the huge pit left on the ground due to Naruto's punch, they disappeared from the spot.
Flickering through the tree branches, they appeared within the area Sasuke and Sakura fought against the Snake and saw the Snake, that was now cut in four parts, the duo had quite a few injuries over their body, Sakura having a bloodied hole on her shoulder and Sasuke one on his leg.
They were sitting on the ground while gasping ever so slightly, approaching them, Naruto said ''Quite a rough battle, eh?''
''...''
''It was a joke, anyway, bite my arm, it'll help to heal your wounds...'' Naruto said after noticing their silence before saying to Kurama 'Hey, Kuu-san, can you use a bit of your Yang Chakra to help them with the healing alongside my Uzumaki's vitality?'
'Tch, asking me to do such work, damn brat! Fine.' The fluffy Fox complained even though he ended up agreeing to it anyways 'So tsundere...' Naruto thought to himself.
