A second tail appeared on my body, and my speed and strength increased significantly, but even so, I did not leave any scars on Orochimaru. Instead, due to the long-term battle, I consumed a lot of my physical strength.

When the two of us stopped, Orochimaru looked at me and said, "Although your strength and speed have increased a lot, you are not my opponent just by this."

"Then let's try it!" As I said that, I rushed towards Orochimaru again, and this time Orochimaru stopped hiding but started to fight me in close combat...

"Hey, Ino, don't go there anymore. If you go there, it will be easy to be discovered." Shikamaru said softly to Ino in front of him.

Ino said, "I don't want it. We are still so far from the place where we fight. Can't we see clearly here? We can only see a blood-red shadow. We must be closer. I want to know who the red figure is? I remember that no one among all the candidates looked like this." Ding Ji was pulled by Ino and dragged forward bit by bit.

Shikamaru covered her forehead and said, "I suddenly felt a headache. A woman's curiosity is so troublesome."

After a while, Shikamaru and the other two were already close. They had seen Sakura holding Sasuke not far away. Seeing Sasuke lying in Sakura's arms, Ino immediately lost his mind and wanted to rush forward. At this time, Shikamaru shouted: "Be careful." Then he rushed to Ino. Ino just wanted to have an attack, but he saw a blood-red thing flying over his head. After hitting a row of big trees, he hit a rock and stopped. After the rock suffered such a collision, countless cracks immediately appeared.

Ino and Shikamaru stood up, Ino looked at the row of collapsed trees and said astonished: "Oh my God, what was that just now?" Then Ino said to Shikamaru: "Thank you, Shikamaru, otherwise I would be dead."

Shikamaru shook his head and wanted to say something just now, but Ino pointed behind Shikamaru. Shikamaru turned his head and saw a blood-red figure flashing. Then the blood-red thing that had just flew out had already appeared beside them.

"Naruto! How could it be you?" Ino said in surprise after seeing it clearly, "How did you become like this?"

I did not answer her, but looked at the three of them and frowned slightly: "You guys should leave here quickly, it's very dangerous here. Protecting Sakura and Sasuke is my limit, and I can't protect you." After that, I jumped away from them.

"Hmph! What? When will he need his protection?" Ino also strides forward.

Shikamaru hurriedly grabbed Ino and said, "Wait a moment, Ino, don't you find it strange? Why did Naruto become that way? And what happened to Sasuke? Why did he fall to the ground and don't move."

Ino said in shock: "Don't move? Could it be that Sasuke has..."

"No." Shikamaru shook his head and said, "Naruto just said, protecting Sakura and Sasuke, which means that Sasuke is still alive, but he must have lost his combat power. Otherwise, according to Sasuke's personality, he will definitely fight with Naruto. And don't you think the chakra on Naruto is very familiar with now?"

Ino was stunned and thought for a moment, "Ah, I remember that the powerful chakra we felt just now was emitted from Naruto now." When he said this, Ino was slightly stunned and said, "Wait, if Shikamaru is really like this, Naruto's chakra is too huge!"

Shikamaru shook his head and said, "You haven't seen Naruto's appearance now, but I think Naruto seems to have used some amazing secret techniques and the like! Sakura should know a little about the specific situation."

Ino nodded and said, "Oh, then let's go to Sakura. I think if we only stay with Sakura, there should be nothing wrong." As he said that, Ino hurriedly ran towards Sakura, but Shikamaru couldn't even hold it back. In the end, Shikamaru could only pull Dingji and Ino to Sakura's side.

Seeing that Ino had no intention of arguing with her, Sakura no longer spoke with a smile at Ino and just observed the battle ahead carefully. Ino asked softly: "Sakura, what's going on? Who is the person who fought with Naruto? And why did Naruto become like this again?"

Sakura: "The man claimed to be Orochimaru. Naruto said that he was once one of Konoha's three ninjas and had the strength of the Shadow. He suddenly appeared in front of us. Naruto and Sasuke joined forces and were not his opponents. Then Sasuke fainted after being bitten by him, and Naruto became like that and fought with the other party." Sakura explained the situation in a very simple way.

Shikamaru glanced at the curse seal on Sasuke's neck and said, "This should be a kind of ninjutsu like sealing. But I don't know the specific situation." At the same time, he said, "Orochimaru, who has the ability to shake the level, seems to have really gotten into a big trouble this time. I have to think of a solution soon!"

With a 'bang', I was knocked away by Orochimaru again, but this time I stopped immediately. "Huhhh..." I kept gasping for breath, Orochimaru smiled and said, "Huhhhhhh. I said it was useless."

"Naruto. Are you okay?" Sakura shouted behind me.

I did not answer Sakura, but stared at Orochimaru tightly. Orochimaru said casually: "I'm tired of playing, so it's better to get rid of you as soon as possible."

"It's not over yet!" I said on all sides: "I haven't admitted defeat yet, the battle is not over yet." Then I raised my head and said, "Roar." A beast roar came out of my throat, and then more and stronger chakras surged out of my body. A third tail appeared behind me. My pupils began to become narrow and my lips turned black.

Orochimaru was slightly surprised: "Three tails! Little kid, I'm becoming more and more interested in you. I wonder how many tails you can have?"

I looked at Orochimaru and said, "Let's fight again now!" As I said that, I rushed towards Orochimaru, my speed became faster and my strength became stronger. But Orochimaru could still handle it. But it was no longer as relaxed as before. His face gradually became a little solemn.

"Huh? What is this?" Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro stood on a big tree not far from us. They had just witnessed the third tail that appeared behind me. Temari pointed at me and said in surprise: "How could this person suddenly become like this?"

Kankuro looked at me, then looked at Gaara and said intently: "This feeling seems to Gaara!"

Gaara opened his eyes and looked at me: "Are you the same as me?"

With a "bang", I punched Orochimaru, and immediately a blood-red chakra appeared and hit Orochimaru, but Orochimaru avoided it, and a big hole immediately appeared where I hit it.

Orochimaru glanced at the ground and smiled softly, "Little kid, you are so interesting." Orochimaru's eyes showed an excited look, but his face slowly became solemn. I knew Orochimaru had become serious.

Orochimaru kept making seals with his hands: "Psychic Art." With a 'bang', a huge snake appeared at Orochimaru's feet, and Orochimaru held it in the air, and Orochimaru made seals again. When I looked at Orochimaru's handprints, I found that this was a very complicated seal. I immediately rushed towards Orochimaru, but just when I had made some moves, Orochimaru had already completed the seal: "Nindian Method·Chanying Snake." Then he stretched out his hands, and a large number of snakes were used in the sleeves of both hands. The number was very terrifying, and it was not just that. For so many snakes, a sword appeared in the open mouth. A cold light flashed across the sword. The target this time was not me, even Sakura, Sasuke, Ino, Shikamaru, and Dingji. He was also within the range of this attack. They had no ability to deal with so many poisonous snakes and long swords.

"Damn it." I gritted my teeth, and then jumped in front of them.

Gaara murmured as she looked at my behavior, "Why? Why do you want to protect them?"

I kept waving my hands at the poisonous snakes, and the poisonous snakes I touched were basically dead, and I also blocked a large number of attacks for them, and they only had to deal with very few attacks.

"Naruto, be careful." Suddenly, Hinata's voice sounded in my ears. Only then did I realize that Orochimaru's head flew out again, and a snake crawled out of his mouth, and a sword appeared in the snake's mouth. It came towards my heart. Although I could hide, if I avoided it, then the people behind me would definitely die. One of them would definitely be stabbed. Although I hate the people in the entire village, it does not include them, because they have never bullied me. Even when I was in the academy, Shikamaru and the others had a good relationship with me.

"Naruto, be careful!" Hinata appeared in front of me and called me softly, but she didn't take a look at the sword that was attacking her behind her.

"Why? Why are there anyone willing to stand in front of him? He is like me, why are there anyone caring about him like this? Why?" Gaara stood on the tree and murmured to himself. Maybe he can't understand my behavior of protecting others and protecting me!

"Hyuta!" I looked at Hinata who appeared in front of me in surprise. The sword in Orochimaru's mouth had already stabbed.
