I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

Chapter 352 Wood Escape·The birth of the Sea of ​​Trees!

Because "there has been progress in wood escape training", you want to "meet Orochimaru"?

Nara Langui pondered the meaning of Tsunade's words. If he understood correctly...

"Sister Tsunade, are you planning to find trouble with Orochimaru?"

"What should I say?"

Tsunade frowned slightly for a moment, then nodded seriously.

"That's right!

"I want to cause trouble for Orochimaru!

"To be precise, I want to beat up Orochimaru! Use [Wood Release]!"

Tsunade and Orochimaru have known each other for a very long time.

They formed a ninja team together when they were about five or six years old, and have been fighting together until now.

To this day, Tsunade and Orochimaru have known each other for decades.

For Tsunade, Orochimaru is a teammate who lives and dies together and is a companion worth trusting.

But this positive and positive perception was completely broken during the Third Ninja War.

Tsunade first learned that Orochimaru was using fellow Konoha ninjas on the front lines to conduct human experiments.

Later, she learned that Orochimaru had extended his evil tentacles to her grandfather, Senju Hashirama.

The negative impact caused by the superposition of these two incidents almost completely wiped out the positive impression Tsunade had accumulated towards Orochimaru in the past few decades.

If it weren't for Orochimaru's "teammate" status, Tsunade's words at this moment would not be "beat him up", but "kill him"!

As for the reason why Tsunade roped in Nara Langui, this is also very simple.

She was worried about overturning...

Orochimaru is not an easy opponent to deal with.

Although he has never described it to outsiders, in Tsunade's heart, Orochimaru, who is extremely talented and eager to learn, should be ranked first among the three ninjas in terms of overall strength!

Even Tsunade doesn't know how many secret techniques and forbidden techniques Orochimaru has mastered now!

Even under normal circumstances, Tsunade didn't have much confidence in "beating Orochimaru".

Not to mention that she still wants to use [Wood Release] to beat Orochimaru...

The most critical point is that Orochimaru is very aware of the intelligence information that Tsunade is suffering from "hyperphobia".

In other words.

Even if Tsunade has the upper hand in the battle with Orochimaru, once Orochimaru takes the initiative to "bleed", Tsunade will completely lose her fighting power.

It's a bit embarrassing to say...

Tsunade has obviously tried very hard to overcome her hemophobia, but unfortunately there has been no progress.

In order to prevent mistakes in the battle later, Tsunade had no choice but to take Nara Langui with her.

Facing Tsunade's invitation to form a team...

Nara Langui’s attitude is naturally——

"Where's the fight? Do you want us to play mixed doubles?"

"Mixed doubles?"

Tsunade was unfamiliar with this new word Nara Langui revealed, but this did not prevent her from quickly understanding the meaning of the word, and her eyes immediately lit up.

"Ahem! Let's see the result of the battle between me and Orochimaru first...

"The meeting place between Orochimaru and I is in the dense forest outside Kikyo Castle."

…

Outside Platycodon City, in the dense forest.

The pale-skinned Orochimaru was bathed in the faint moonlight, quietly waiting for his "teammate".

Regarding Tsunade's invitation, Orochimaru said he was not curious, which would be a lie.

Especially since the other party took the initiative to place the meeting outside Konoha.

In recent times, Orochimaru has been obsessed with his biological research.

The general characteristics of Hashirama's cells were gradually broken down by him, and he would soon be able to start a new round of experiments...

Under such circumstances, apart from major life events such as the "Hokage Campaign", Orochimaru would rarely pay attention to other irrelevant trivial matters.

But it was precisely because of his concern for the "Hokage Campaign" that Orochimaru also heard from Danzo Shimura that Tsunade had joined the whirlpool of the Fourth Generation's campaign.

"Could it be that Tsunade asked me to meet because of that guy Nara Langui?"

Orochimaru's eyes narrowed like a snake, and he looked up at the sky. A dark [Shadow Creature] was approaching quickly under the cover of the moonlight.

"Here he comes..."

Before Orochimaru could raise his hand to greet him.

A slender figure jumped off the back of the [Shadow Creature], and like a meteor falling from the sky, it fiercely crashed into the area where Orochimaru was standing.

"Um?"

Orochimaru let out a light sigh, and the right hand he had just raised halfway raised in front of his chest, making a gesture of refining chakra.

The next moment.

boom--

Tsunade fell heavily and stepped on the top of Orochimaru's head with great precision. The violent force directly crushed the latter's head and body, and then stepped on the ground again.

With a deafening roar, the originally flat forest glade was shattered inch by inch under Tsunade's trampling, turning into a deep pit about ten meters in diameter, and then exploding into a sky full of dust and smoke.

"Is this your greeting after such a long time no see? Tsunade."

Orochimaru's iconic husky voice came from under the big tree nearby. He leaned on the thick trunk and looked at the dust and smoke in front of him.

"It's a bit too 'enthusiastic'."

As the smoke dissipated, Tsunade-hime's figure appeared in the broken pit.

Just when Tsunade-hime landed, Orochimaru performed "Earth Release: Earth Substitute" without hesitation. His whole body turned into a ball of mud, avoiding a head-on collision with Tsunade's strange power, and dodged to the side. under the tree.

"Orochimaru."

Tsunade raised her head and looked at Orochimaru, who was standing calmly under the tree, a hint of coldness and enthusiasm flashed in his brown eyes.

"I came here today really intending to 'catch up on old times' with you!"

"Yeah?"

Orochimaru responded noncommittally, and he looked up at the [Shadow Creature] that had not yet landed under the night.

"Then what is the purpose of Nara-kun coming here?"

"Nara?"

Tsunade clasped her hands together in a slightly stiff seal.

"He's just here to hold off the enemy..."

Orochimaru didn't immediately realize what "Nara holds Gui and presses the formation" meant. His eyes were immediately attracted by Tsunade's stiff seal gesture.

Compared to the content of Tsunade's seals, the fact that "Tsunade is forming seals" itself is more attractive.

"Are you actually forming seals?"

Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth gently, a trace of strong curiosity flashed in his snake eyes.

"I don't mean to belittle, but Tsunade, in my impression, you haven't formed a seal for more than ten years, right?"

As a ninja, Tsunade's ninjutsu is naturally not only medical ninjutsu.

But after her own combat system was basically formed, Tsunade's abilities were basically fixed at "strange strength + medical ninjutsu".

Why should we slowly form seals when an enemy can be dispatched with one punch?

In Orochimaru's memory, Tsunade had indeed not formed a seal in front of him for nearly ten years.

Tsunade's face darkened slightly, but she still formed the seal firmly.

With the completion of each seal gesture, Orochimaru's attention finally shifted from the matter of "Tsunade making seals" itself.

"Wait a minute, this seal formation process is..."

"Wood Release·The Sea of ​​Trees is born!"

After Tsunade completed the seal, her right hand instantly slapped the ground below, and the [Wood Release] chakra in her body was poured into the ground, activating the plant roots hidden underground.

Clusters of green plants grew out of the earth, rushing towards Orochimaru like a wave, seeming to completely submerge him.

Orochimaru's pupils shrank to the limit, unable to conceal his shock.

"Wood Release!"
