The Hokage Rock was the spiritual symbol of Konoha, and also a symbol of honor. Carved with the head portraits of successive Hokage, it could be said to bear the important legacy of Konoha's Will of Fire. He had never expected the opponent to be so insane as to directly destroy the Hokage Rock using a Tailed Beast Bomb.
This action by the opponent simply showed their unwavering determination to fight Konoha to the death. This was even more infuriating than the opponent attacking Konoha and slaughtering Konoha ninjas. Many things had completely exceeded Danzo's expectations and control.
What infuriated him most was that all these dead Root ninjas were forces he had cultivated for many years, his greatest reliance for seizing the position of Hokage. The money and resources spent were countless, yet with one Tailed Beast Bomb, the opponent directly destroyed more than half of his power.
This could also be said to be his own doing. In order to allow the Suna and Sound Ninjas to fully confront the Konoha-aligned ninjas and weaken Konoha's power, he had concentrated all of Root's ninjas in Root's base. He had done the same during the Nine-Tails incident thirteen years ago, but he never expected that precisely because most people were concentrated here, they were completely wiped out by the opponent.
"Uchiha Sasuke, I've noted this debt! One day, I will have my revenge!!!" Danzo said with a sinister expression, then slowly walked forward, his body gradually disappearing into the darkness. Because he lacked sufficient power at the moment, he had no choice but to continue lying low.
At this moment, within the Four Violet Flames Formation on the rooftop of the arena, everywhere was already covered by dense bushes. Therefore, Orochimaru and the Third Hokage could not see the outside scene, but they clearly felt that terrifying explosion just now. Even without seeing it, they could roughly imagine that something extraordinary had definitely happened outside.
The Third Hokage's face became even paler. A trace of sorrow flashed in his turbid eyes. "Hahahaha..." Orochimaru laughed wildly. "Hahahaha... It seems something quite interesting has really happened outside. What a pity, I can't witness it with my own eyes," Orochimaru's sinister voice rang out.
"Cough!!!" The Third Hokage once again spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. A trace of determination flashed across his pale face. He seemed to have made some kind of decision. He took a deep breath and said loudly, "Although I have been quite a failure as Hokage, even if I die, I must do something for Konoha. Today, it seems that my power alone cannot completely seal you, but I will steal all your ninjutsu from these hands!!! I will make sure you can never wreak havoc again!!!" His voice was filled with resolve.
"What else can you do? Old geezer!!! You can only wait for death!!!" Orochimaru laughed mockingly, but the next moment his face drastically changed, because he clearly saw the disgusting tongue of the Shinigami, dressed in white and looking hideous, lick its blade behind the Third Hokage, and slowly raise the short blade in its hand.
Orochimaru also seemed to realize something. His yellowish snake-like pupils sharply constricted. "Could it be..." "It's over!!!!!" The Third Hokage roared loudly.
"No, no!!!!!" Orochimaru's face changed dramatically, and a hoarse voice burst from his mouth, his tone filled with terror. "Hmph!!!!!!" With a clear sound, the blue soul was instantly severed by the Shinigami's short blade!!
"Seal!!!!!" The Third Hokage roared loudly. The severed blue soul was slowly absorbed into the Third Hokage's body. Immediately, an Eight Trigrams pattern seal slowly appeared on the Third Hokage's chest.
"You detestable immortal!!! Give me back my arms!!!!!" Orochimaru roared crazily with a hideous face. At this moment, he completely lost his sanity.
"The Konoha Collapse Plan ends here!!! Orochimaru..." The Third Hokage said faintly. His turbid eyes gradually lost their luster, his body slowly fell, and his breath gradually faded.
"Damn it, my arms, my arms can't move..." Orochimaru's voice rang out hoarsely, his tone filled with pain. Sweat constantly beaded on his forehead. His arms gradually turned brownish, then became withered, as if his entire arm had lost life.
"...! Lord Orochimaru!!!!!" Hearing Orochimaru's cry, the shocked voices of the four Sound Ninjas instantly came. "The Konoha Collapse Plan stops here, retreat." Orochimaru said in a low voice.
"Yes!!!!" The four answered respectfully, then dissolved the Four Violet Flames Formation. The four helped Orochimaru's body and quickly left the rooftop. However, when they saw the current state of Konoha, the expressions of the five people, including Orochimaru, became quite colorful.
At this time, in a small town relatively far from Konoha, Sasuke and Deidara quickly arrived here riding a white large bird, and successfully rendezvoused with Kotaro and Junko Takeshita.
Looking at the residual bloodstains on Sasuke's face, and his black (money-colored) robe covered in dust, bloodstains, and dust, Junko Takeshita instantly let out a cry of surprise and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious. It's just that my Chakra and eyesight are overly consumed. I need to rest well for a period of time. Let's go. First, leave the Land of Fire. This is still Konoha's territory after all," Sasuke said indifferently.
Subsequently, the four sat on Deidara's clay bird and quickly flew towards the border of the Land of Fire, moving away from Konoha's sphere of influence as quickly as possible. Although Konoha was heavily damaged by Sasuke and thus it was difficult for ninjas to pursue them, it was good to be prepared for contingencies, as Sasuke was almost completely exhausted now.
Later, they heard that Konoha had almost been destroyed by Sasuke and Deidara. Kotaro and Junko Takeshita were both greatly shocked, especially Junko Takeshita, who desperately covered her mouth...
