From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 350: The Demonic Seal! The Grim Reaper appears!
In the dense forest on the Hokage Rock, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not in a very good condition at the moment. He was squatting on a tree trunk, panting, with the diamond stick in his hand protecting his side, and his expression was very alert.

"This technique is really difficult to deal with." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself.

Because they have no self-awareness and their Impure World Reincarnation system is not yet perfect, the strength of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju has not been fully utilized.

This is why Sarutobi Hiruzen was able to fight one against two, and with Orochimaru he was able to fight one against three, and still hold on until now.

During this period, he also destroyed the bodies of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju twice. As beings of Impure World Reincarnation, they can be resurrected infinitely and there is no need to worry about chakra.

This technique developed by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, was indeed recorded in the Book of Sealed. Sarutobi Hiruzen also knew about this technique, but because it was not perfect, Tobirama Senju did not describe it in detail, let alone write how to break this technique.

However, the experienced Sarutobi Hiruzen had already figured out by this time that the problem could not be solved by a head-on confrontation, and he did not know how to break the technique. After much thought, he felt that only a seal could solve the problem.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the inky black mark on his arm again.

"Flying Thunder God" Sarutobi Hiruzen muttered to himself with a serious expression.

In the previous battle with Senju Tobirama, he was hit by the opponent's Flying Thunder God Mark at some point.

At this moment, a murderous intent flashed, and Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly blocked the diamond stick in his hand to his side. The next second, Senju Tobirama instantly appeared beside Sarutobi Hiruzen using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Sarutobi Hiruzen grabbed the diamond stick and smashed it towards Senju Tobirama, but Senju Tobirama had a cold expression, without any emotion at all. Half of his body was smashed on the spot, and the filth was flying all over the sky. At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed, and he threw the diamond stick in his hand directly into the distance.

"The technique of multiplying detonating talismans!" With only half of his body left, Senju Tobirama formed a Yin-shaped seal with one hand and shouted in a low voice.

Continuously, detonating tags exploded on the diamond stick, and the smoke from the explosion quickly covered the area. A moment later, Sarutobi Hiruzen's figure emerged from the smoke, and as soon as his feet touched the ground, he didn't have time to stand firmly.

"Wood Release: Tree Explosion!" Senju Hashirama clasped his hands together and shouted loudly.

The wood under Sarutobi Hiruzen's feet suddenly swelled as if it was about to explode. The old guy was still very agile. Although his forehead was covered in sweat and his face was a little pale, he still jumped into the air at the first moment.

He formed seals with his hands and several shadow clones exploded, and five Sarutobi Hiruzen appeared in the sky above the dense forest at the same time.

"We have to destroy this place in one breath," Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself, and as soon as he thought about it, five figures began to form seals at the same time.

In the dense forest, Orochimaru noticed this scene, a solemn look appeared in his eyes, and he controlled the Impure World Reincarnation, causing Hashirama Senju, who was originally preparing to continue chasing, to pause and change his mind about performing the spell.

In the sky, Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted: "Ninja Techniques. Five Styles. Great Link Technique!"

The five figures each placed a hand seal, and the five attributes of wind, thunder, water, fire and earth exploded at the same time, turning into five chakra energy bombs that fell from the sky.

This set of operations had a very large coverage area, covering the figures of the three people who had just recovered, Tobirama Senju, Hashirama Senju, and Orochimaru, as well as the entire dense forest.

The five elements of wind, thunder, water, fire and earth collided with each other just before falling into the dense forest.

First the wind increased the fire, the thunder helped the water, and the power of this technique was further enhanced. But it only lasted for a moment. After a brief fusion, it brought an extremely brutal explosion.

With a loud bang, the huge Hokage Rock began to tremble, and cracks of varying sizes appeared on the portrait of the Fourth Hokage.

The emerald green forest above was directly blown to pieces. The raging fire swept through, turning the place into a scorching hell.

At this moment, in the center of the bombardment of the Dalian Bullet Technique, a charred ghost face burned by the high temperature of the flames was a little broken, but it still withstood the attack.

This is exactly the Wood Release: Ranking Technique of Hashirama Senju!

When Sarutobi Hiruzen released his shadow clones and jumped into the air, Orochimaru, as his disciple, had already anticipated what his teacher would do. Senju Tobirama and Senju Hashirama were reincarnated from the Impure World Reincarnation, and the two of them were not at all vulnerable to any of Sarutobi Hiruzen's techniques, but Orochimaru was still a little worried, so he immediately controlled Senju Hashirama to defend himself.

"You've been fooled." Five figures of Sarutobi Hiruzen landed around the ranking technique at the same time.

Three of the shadow clones immediately slapped their hands to the ground, their chakra surged, and they shouted, "Three-way Seal!"

An emerald green triangular barrier was formed with the three shadow clones as the fulcrum, connecting together and sealing the ranking technique and Sarutobi Hiruzen's other two figures in an enclosed space.

At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen pulled off the Hokage robe on his body, threw it on the ground, and released another shadow clone.

He understood Orochimaru, just as Orochimaru understood him. When he used the Five Styles: Great Wave Technique, Orochimaru would definitely find a way to parry.

And this is exactly the effect Sarutobi Hiruzen wants!
"Wherever the leaves dance, the fire never ceases. It seems that today is the day when I will turn into a fallen leaf." Sarutobi Hiruzen's real body glanced at the chaotic village with some reluctance, his eyes full of nostalgia.

Perhaps he was a very political Hokage, holding power the longest in the entire history of Konoha, having ascended to the throne twice.

But it is undeniable that when sacrifice is really needed, Sarutobi Hiruzen will never back down. When the Flying Thunder God Mark hit him, he already knew that he had to make an end to the battle today.

It's not just the end of his relationship with Orochimaru, but also the end of his relationship with his teacher, the First Hokage.

He wanted to seal the souls of these three people, along with his own life.

The ranking technique exploded, and the figures of Orochimaru, Senju Tobirama, and Senju Hashirama appeared. The three of them immediately attacked Sarutobi Hiruzen who was around.

But it seems too late.

After a series of hand seals of Si, Hai, Wei, Mao, Xu, Zi, You, Wu, Si were cast, Sarutobi Hiruzen put his hands together and shouted in a low voice: "Shiki Fuujin!"

A terrifying soul pressure erupted from behind him. In an instant, both Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju paused, as if they had met some natural enemy. Orochimaru's heart tightened and he mobilized his chakra to force the two to move quickly, but there was no response at all.

"Sure enough, my prediction was correct. The Impure World Reincarnation technique is to pull the souls sleeping in the Pure Land back into the real world. This has already violated the rules of the Pure Land. The God of Death, as the manager of the Pure Land, has absolute restraint on the souls escaping to the real world!" Sarutobi Hiruzen thought secretly in his heart.

Fortunately, this technique has not been perfected yet, otherwise Mr. Tobirama would definitely find a way to solve this weakness, right?

The First and Second Hokage were completely suppressed by the pressure of the Grim Reaper and could not move. Orochimaru was caught off guard and was a little slow, so Sarutobi Hiruzen's real body pressed his hands on his shoulders.

Since it is a sealing technique, it must have a very strong suppressing effect. After Orochimaru was held down on the shoulders by his teacher, he felt his body sink and he could no longer move.

"Old man." Orochimaru's expression was a little frightened, and he roared with resentment in his tone.

"It's over." A trace of sadness flashed across Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, but it was immediately replaced by murderous intent.

The remaining two shadow clones also directly held down Senju Tobirama and Senju Hashirama, and then the Grim Reaper behind Sarutobi Hiruzen moved.

The god of death pulled out the short sword from his waist, and slowly but powerfully penetrated into the Impure World Reincarnation body of Hashirama Senju. Then, as if he had grabbed something, he slowly pulled his hand out of Hashirama Senju's body, and also pulled out Hashirama Senju's soul.

The short knife fell, instantly cutting off the ties between Hashirama Senju's soul and his Impure World Reincarnation body. Then, the God of Death, without saying a word, ate Hashirama Senju's soul into his body in one gulp, as if he was tasting something delicious, and even chewed it twice.

After dealing with Hashirama Senju, the Grim Reaper once again set his sights on Tobirama Senju, who was also completely suppressed.

At the same time, on the roof of a building in Konoha, Bane was thinking about fusing chakra attributes and awakening his bloodline limit.

What he combined were the two attributes of water and earth.

"Combine the two attributes of water and earth to form Wood Release." A ball of water splashed out from the palm of Bane's left hand, and a lot of soil appeared from the palm of his right hand. He talked to himself while putting his hands together again and again.

The two attributes of chakra continued to merge in his hands, and there was a vague feeling of turning into mud and water. After a moment, it suddenly exploded.

Obviously, Bane's chakra fusion failed.

He smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Sure enough, it won't be that simple."

As soon as he finished speaking, he once again focused his attention on the battle on the Hokage Rock in the distance. The reason why he had the sudden idea to try to fuse the attributes here was because he saw the birth of the tree world of Hashirama Senju, so he felt a little itchy.

Orochimaru had previously been in charge of researching Wood Release Kekkei Genkai in Konoha, so it can be said that he is very familiar with Wood Release Kekkei Genkai. When he was in the Ryuchi Cave, he also talked about this matter with Ben.

Before Hashirama Senju, there had been many ninjas with Wood Release Bloodline Genkai in the history of the Senju clan, which was named "Mori".

It’s just that in history, Hashirama Senju’s Wood Release was the strongest, so it seems that he evolved Wood Release into his personal symbol.

In fact, according to Orochimaru's research and the records of the Senju clan, Wood Release is, after all, a bloodline limit created by the combination of the attributes of water and earth. It is not so mysterious that it does not require the transplantation of Hashirama's cells.

In the original story, Konohamaru's teammate, Kazesami Moeka, awakened and developed the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai normally.

However, due to the limited amount of chakra, her Wood Release is very ordinary, far from the level of Hashirama Senju, the God of Ninja.

But Bane felt that he still had a chance. If he could develop the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai, judging from his chakra and even natural energy, the power he could unleash should be no less than that of Hashirama Senju, right?
While thinking about this, Bane saw from afar that Sarutobi Hiruzen used the Five Styles: Great Link Bomb Technique to bomb the Tree World Descent.

Soon afterwards, he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen releasing the three-way seal, sealing himself and Orochimaru and the others together. Then, a spiritual pressure that Bane had been waiting for for a long time appeared, and an excited smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"You finally show up, the Grim Reaper," Bane's gaze pierced through the layers of chaos, locked onto the spirit of the Grim Reaper that appeared behind Sarutobi Hiruzen, and said softly.

The moment he finished speaking, Bane stepped down and his figure suddenly disappeared on the roof.
