Naruto the Genius

Chapter 11: Battle with Orochimaru

Since he had been discovered, Naruto didn't want to say too much nonsense. He threw a large wave of shurikens at Orochimaru, and then quickly formed a seal to create more than a hundred shadow clones, and then sent out more shurikens. However, Orochimaru easily dodged these attacks, and then summoned a big snake. Sasuke was already shaking at that size, and Sakura almost fainted. Seeing it for the first time, Naruto also marveled at the extraordinary nature of Orochimaru's summoned beast.

Naruto immediately formed hand seals and performed a combination ninjutsu with his shadow clone, blazing wind and fierce fire. The powerful flame flew towards Orochimaru at an extremely high speed. The range and power of the technique reached an extremely terrifying level.

This move was far beyond Orochimaru's expectations. He retreated rapidly with horror in his eyes, but he was thinking in his heart: "I didn't expect Konoha to have such a genius. He may have surpassed Itachi back then. The strength of this ninjutsu is totally beyond the reach of ordinary jonin. It seems that besides Sasuke, there will be new gains."

Although he was caught off guard, Orochimaru was after all a genius among the three ninjas. He quickly used Rashomon to block Naruto's powerful attack, but the snake disappeared in the flames, and it should have retreated back to the spiritual world at that moment.

Orochimaru habitually extended his long tongue to lick his face and said, "I didn't expect there are still some powerful guys among the Genin. This is a little interesting." After that, he suddenly disappeared from the spot. The moment Orochimaru disappeared, Naruto immediately activated the chakra in his body, and the Thunder God Armor was used. Lightning quickly covered Naruto's head and body. The next moment, a kunai was less than ten centimeters away from Naruto. Naruto quickly retreated, barely supporting himself with the kunai. But the force from the kunai still accelerated Naruto's retreat.

After a few rounds, Naruto just struggled to hold on. Then Orochimaru kicked him with a chakra-filled kick and a strong wind. Naruto, who was struggling to deal with Orochimaru's kunai, was hit in the abdomen. Although he was protected by the Thunder God Armor, he was still pushed back nearly ten feet and suffered internal injuries.

On the other hand, Orochimaru only had some injuries on his feet, strictly speaking, they were minor injuries, and had little impact on his movements. But this was already incredible to Orochimaru, and he once again underestimated Naruto's strength. Orochimaru looked at the wound on his foot and said, "I see, not only has he mastered the change of form, but also the change of nature. Although it is not perfect yet, it seems that we need to be a little more careful."

Orochimaru rushed towards Naruto again, and this time he actually took out the Kusanagi sword. This action scared Naruto, and he thought: "You can't play like this, even if I have the Thunder God Armor, how can I resist the Kusanagi sword, not to mention that the strength of the two is already quite different." Seeing Orochimaru rushing towards him, he could only create a large number of shadow clones to entangle with Orochimaru, but in the end it was difficult to hurt Orochimaru. Seeing this situation, Naruto quickly made a mark on the ground and prepared to escape with the Flying Thunder God.

While dealing with the shadow clones, Orochimaru rushed towards the main body at a visible speed. Naruto quickly formed a seal and used the Lightning Release to escape. At the same time, he controlled the shadow clones to perform a combination ninjutsu. When Orochimaru was electrocuted, he performed the Wind and Fire while the powerful ninjutsu ended. After the powerful ninjutsu ended, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and what was seen was Orochimaru's earth substitute. Seeing the substitute, Naruto quickly performed the Substitution Technique. Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword cut off the wood of the Substitution Technique and quickly attacked Naruto. Naruto tried his best to dodge the Kusanagi sword, but was kicked by Orochimaru again. Naruto took advantage of the momentum to quickly retreat and fell into the bushes. At the same time, he immediately performed the Flying Thunder God and fled back home.

After returning home, Naruto thought of Orochimaru's terrifying strength and felt even more that his own strength was insufficient. Although he did not seem to suffer a big loss in the previous battle, in fact, Orochimaru's powerful and repeated attacks had caused Naruto to suffer serious internal injuries. Naruto was also quite exhausted in this battle, and he immediately fell on the bed to rest. Under the influence of the Nine-Tails' chakra and Naruto's physique, his internal injuries improved at a relatively fast speed, and it seemed that he needed to rest for a while. On the other side, Orochimaru felt that Naruto's breath suddenly disappeared after he fell into the bushes, and then he chased after him, but there was no trace of Naruto. He couldn't help but think to himself: "You can actually escape from the hands of Orochimaru, what an amazing kid, never mind, the main purpose of this trip is still Uchiha.

At this time, Sasuke and Sakura thought that Naruto was killed by Orochimaru. Sakura cried and fainted. Sasuke was also very sad at this time. He and Naruto had become brothers. When Sasuke saw Orochimaru turned around, he overcame his fear and only wanted to tear Orochimaru to pieces.

Using the Sharingan, he rushed towards Orochimaru regardless of everything. With the Sharingan, he was able to capture Orochimaru's movements and respond in advance. Naruto's actions aroused his unprecedented fighting spirit, and he was able to use fire ninjutsu and physical skills that were beyond his usual level. But all this was like a child's play in front of Orochimaru, and basically had no big effect. Sakura was really powerless to see all this, and deeply felt the insufficiency of her own strength. Fortunately, this time Orochimaru was just here to test Sasuke's strength, otherwise many lives would have been lost there.

After a struggle, Orochimaru bit Sasuke's neck and planted the Heaven's Curse Seal. The power of the seal immediately made Sasuke faint, and Orochimaru left with satisfaction. Sakura was so sad that she had no choice but to carry Sasuke into the cave and set a simple trap at the entrance.

Naruto's injuries were almost healed. He used Flying Thunder God to return to the original place, and then followed the trail to find Sakura and Sasuke. The two of them did not run far, and were soon found by Naruto. However, the scene at this time was very lively. Not only Sakura and Sasuke were there, but also the three Sound Ninjas, as well as Lee, Ningci, Tenten, Shikamaru, Choji, Ino and others. Sakura looked injured and her hair was shorter. Naruto happened to see Sasuke using the power of the curse seal to deal with the three Sound Ninjas. The curse seal did greatly increase Sasuke's strength, but that kind of power came with risks. However, it only took one move to kill one of the Sound Ninjas. Frightened by this powerful and evil power, Sakura stopped Sasuke from killing in time, otherwise the three Sound Ninjas would be completely finished.

The trio was defeated by Sasuke's powerful strength. In order to save their lives, they left the Book of Earth in their hands and left with two injured people. Naruto saw that the time was almost right, so he jumped out from behind the tree and said, "Sakura, Sasuke, are you okay?" Seeing Naruto's first reaction, Sakura and Sasuke were very happy and said in unison, "Naruto, I'm glad you're not dead." Sakura even ran over and hugged Naruto tightly, crying, "Naruto, I'm glad you're still alive. I thought you were killed by that bad guy..."

Naruto touched Sakura's hair which had become shorter and felt that it was wrong to let such a beautiful woman suffer, but Naruto was a world of the strong and for the sake of everyone's growth there was nothing he could do but to continue to comfort Sakura.

Several Konoha ninjas said a few words of thanks and said their goodbyes, each going to find an opponent so they could complete the exam.
