"Nangong Zhi-Sensei, I thought it would be an ordinary disciple of the Blood-Cloak Pavilion who would come here to pick me up. I didn't expect you to come in person." Compared to Orochimaru, Sasuke was undoubtedly closer to Nangong Zhe, who gave him a way to gain strength and care when he was at his weakest.
"Fortunately, you told me the flaw of Orochimaru's Immortal Reincarnation. Otherwise, I would have been doomed this time."
Hearing Sasuke's words, Nangong Zhe didn't know why he felt a little guilty. After all, the reason why he helped Sasuke was because of Itachi. He didn't care for Sasuke with a completely pure purpose. Now that Sasuke pushed the reason for defeating Orochimaru to himself, Nangong Zhe was at a loss for a while.
After all, Nangong Zhe only heard Sasuke's description of Orochimaru's Reincarnation Jutsu. He went to the Blood-Cloak Pavilion to check a little bit about the soul, and combined with some information from Itachi, he speculated that Orochimaru's soul should be under great pressure. So he suggested that if Sasuke really fell into a dangerous situation, he could use Genjutsu to protect himself. When Orochimaru, who was suspicious, saw that things didn't go in the direction he expected, his inner anxiety would make his mentality unbalanced and create an opportunity for Sasuke to win.
But these were all assumptions, even Nangong Zhe didn't dare to say that his guess was 100% correct. So at this moment, the gratitude from Sasuke was so harsh in Nangong Zhe's ears. When Nangong Zhe was about to say something, Sasuke's body softened and fell to the ground.
This child … is really defenseless against me?
After a spiritual confrontation with Orochimaru, Sasuke's soul must have been exhausted to the extreme. The moment he saw me, he lost control of his body and fainted. Nangong Zhe thought it was completely understandable.
Slowly squatting down and carrying Sasuke on his back, Nangong Zhe carried Sasuke away from Orochimaru's base. Before leaving, Nangong Zhe glanced at the entrance of Orochimaru's base from the corner of his eyes. That trace of hostility was so obvious, but looking at Sasuke on his back, Nangong Zhe didn't choose to do anything. Instead, he left the forest.
Yakushi Kabuto … After all, he's just a small character who's proficient in medical ninjutsu. The most important thing right now is Sasuke on his back.
Sasuke, who fell into a coma, didn't fall asleep unconsciously. Instead, he was deeply entangled by the nightmare.
Only Sasuke knew how dangerous it was!
In fact, when Sasuke was entangled by those carrion-like things, Sasuke could clearly feel that his body was no longer under his control. Sasuke knew that the reincarnation technique used by Orochimaru had actually taken effect. At the moment of life and death, Sasuke suddenly remembered Nangong Zhe's speculation about the weakness of Orochimaru's reincarnation technique.
Associating with part of Orochimaru's memory that he saw before, Sasuke began to exert Genjutsu on Orochimaru with his Sharingan, step by step, leading Orochimaru to doubt himself. With the deepening of Genjutsu, Orochimaru has been completely immersed in his self-denial. His defeat in the battle with Itachi Uchiha was indeed a huge sore point in Orochimaru's heart.
Orochimaru, who was immersed in Genjutsu, gradually found it difficult to maintain Immortal Reincarnation, and Sasuke also organized his Spiritual Strength at this moment to counterattack. After all, Immortal Reincarnation is a ritual based on the soul or Spiritual Strength. Since it's a ritual, it's naturally possible to usurp the dominance.
Sasuke directly usurped the dominance of Immortal Reincarnation and became the controller of Immortal Reincarnation through the accumulation of Spiritual Strength after opening his Sharingan. Sasuke sealed Orochimaru's useless memories through the power of Immortal Reincarnation, and left the knowledge that he thought was useful to him in his spiritual space to slowly absorb.
After completing this series of operations, Sasuke actually found it difficult to support his body. But after opening his eyes, he saw Kabuto standing at the door. Sasuke also thought that he couldn't show weakness in front of Kabuto. Otherwise, how could Kabuto, who was as poisonous as Orochimaru, let him leave safely?
So, Sasuke walked out of Orochimaru's base. Even if he had noticed that Kabuto was behind him, Sasuke didn't mention any plans to eliminate Kabuto. The moment he saw Nangong Zhe, Sasuke knew that he was safe. Even if there was a Kabuto behind him, for Nangong Zhe, it was completely easy to eliminate him. Only the stronger he was, the more Sasuke understood how powerful Nangong Sensei was when he was young.
… …
Not knowing how long it took, Sasuke opened his heavy eyelids, and a slightly dazzling sunlight penetrated through the window of the room where he was. Instinctively, he picked up the silver-white long sword beside him. After looking around vigilantly, Sasuke recalled the fact that he met Nangong Zhe after leaving the base and then fell asleep.
Listening to the sound of the wind and the faint sound of birds and insects, Sasuke's heart, which had been tense for three years, finally quietly relaxed. For the first time in a long time, he didn't have to worry about whether he would be assassinated or poisoned. Such a relaxed day made Sasuke feel a long-lost peace.
Lying back on the rough wooden bed he just slept on, Sasuke didn't close his eyes to rest. Instead, he opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling in front of him. Nearly three years of highly stressful life, Sasuke didn't have a chance to relax at all. Every day, he would think about how to make himself stronger, and every day, he would think about how to survive. When all the threats were gone, Sasuke's heart became unexpectedly empty at this moment.
What else do I care about? Sasuke thought for a long time, and found that it seems that the most important thing to him was his family and his teammates in Wood leaf. Was it time for her to complete her goal and face her brother head-on?
