A group of people have different attitudes toward the Akatsuki organization.
The Fourth Raikage thinks that this dangerous rebel organization should be wiped out immediately, to prevent them from causing chaos everywhere.
Because Iwagakure doesn't have any outstanding new generation, Onoki needs to rely on the S-rank rebel power of the Akatsuki organization, and he is unwilling to take action against them.
Kirigakure... overwhelmed.
Konoha here.
Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally knew that Uchiha Itachi had joined the Akatsuki organization as an undercover agent.
...Though this undercover agent has been undercover for so many years, no news has come back.
As a result, Danzo has been wondering if Uchiha Itachi has been undercover for "three years and three years," too long undercover, and has finally become a real traitor!
Sunagakure... More concerned with their own issues!
Not long after Rasa died, the Sand Shinobi also learned the news through the live broadcast room...
The next Kazekage has not yet been chosen, so what kind of organization can be controlled?
Therefore, for a while, only the Fourth Raikage advocated eliminating the Akatsuki organization, but no one responded, and he was so angry that he cursed.
The golden frame above the live broadcast room.

[ Orochimaru escapes using an Earth Style clone, looking at Sasuke from afar with a gloomy expression. ]
[I actually fell into the illusion of a little brat with three tomoe!]
[Although he couldn't control me for long and I quickly broke free, it doesn't change the fact that I was caught in an illusion!]
[If Uchiha Sasuke hadn't tortured me just now, but killed me directly...]
[Thinking of this, even though Orochimaru has many life-saving means, he can't help but feel a little scared.]
["Hehe..."]
[Orochimaru suddenly laughs.]
[Looking at Sasuke, his eyes become more intense.]
[Although I can't quite understand why my illusion resistance has become so poor...]
[But!]
[If I can obtain Uchiha Sasuke's body, these problems may be solved!]
["Let me count... incredible strength, powerful Lightning Style, Muji Ninjutsu, Sharingan... excelling in all of these areas. The average Jōnin would be proud to have reached your level in just one of them."]
["Uchiha Sasuke, your talent truly satisfies me!"]
[Orochimaru stares at Sasuke and speaks.]
[He must have this perfect body!]
[Speaking, Orochimaru begins to form seals: "Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bullet!"]
[Boom!]
[A huge earth dragon rises from the ground, attacking Sasuke with terrifying power!]
[Considering the situation of both sides, Orochimaru decides it's better not to get too close to Uchiha Sasuke...]
[The boy's monstrous strength and Sharingan could pose a threat to him!]
[Moreover, at a distance, Orochimaru will have more time to prepare himself against Uchiha Sasuke's Muji jutsu.]
[It's just... it feels a little humiliating!]
[He's the dignified Orochimaru, one of Konoha's Sannin, yet he's calculating his approach against a twelve-year-old boy!]
["You seem to be proficient in Earth Style?"]
[Sasuke looks at the ferocious attacking earth dragon without moving.]
[Holding the Kusanagi sword, pouring Lightning Style Chakra into it, a lightning spear extends from the tip of the blade, and Sasuke strikes the earth dragon!]
[Crash!]
[The mighty earth dragon is instantly disintegrated by the Lightning Style!]
["An elemental advantage..."]
[Orochimaru frowns slightly.]
[His best attribute is Earth Style, while Uchiha Sasuke excels at Lightning Style—elemental compatibility isn't in his favor...]
[Before Orochimaru can decide on his next move, Sasuke targets him, and a ferocious fire dragon spews out!]
[Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu!]
[The surrounding air instantly becomes unbearably hot!]
["This level of Fire Style..."]
[Orochimaru quickly forms seals in his hands, using Earth Style: Multiple Mud Walls to raise earthen walls from the ground!]
[The ferocious fire dragon slams into the earth walls, shattering them to pieces!]
["..."]
[Orochimaru watches as the Dragon Flame is finally blocked by the multiple earth walls, wiping sweat from his forehead.]
[Looking down, his pupils shrink again!]
[The surface of the destroyed mud walls has crystallized and vitrified!]
[The temperature of this Fire Style is terrifying!]
[Is Uchiha Sasuke's Fire Style mastery this strong?]
[Realizing this, Orochimaru suddenly feels foolish.]
[His opponent is an Uchiha!]
[Although Uchiha Sasuke may specialize in Lightning Style, the Uchiha's Fire Style can't be underestimated!]
["Summoning Jutsu: Formation of Ten Thousand Snakes!"]
[After a moment of thought, Orochimaru lays on the ground, spitting out countless long snakes!]
[Dense brown snakes spread rapidly, covering dozens, even hundreds of meters around!]
[It's enough to make anyone's scalp tingle!]
["Your ninjutsu is really disgusting."]
[Sasuke can't help but curl his lips.]
[He feels nauseated.]
["As long as it's effective."]
[Orochimaru doesn't care at all.]
["So, how will you deal with this technique, Uchiha Sasuke?"]
[Across the battlefield.]
[Sasuke's chest swells up suddenly, as he gathers his Fire Style Chakra:]
[Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!]
[Boom—]
[The boundless sea of flames instantly consumes the snakes!]
[The long snakes struggle momentarily in the monstrous fire, before being reduced to charred remains!]
["What?!"]
[Orochimaru's pupils shrink as he watches the terrifying sea of fire approach, quickly retreating while forming seals:]
["Water Style: Exploding Water Shockwave!"]
[Utilizing the abundant water vapor in the forest, the shockwave forms, colliding with the ferocious sea of flames!]
[Ssshhhh—]
[A massive cloud of steam completely envelops the area!]
---
Onoki: "Such large-scale Fire Style? As expected of an Uchiha!"
Uchiha Madara: "Uchiha Sasuke's mastery of Fire Style and Lightning Style is impressive, and with his Three Tomoe Sharingan, his improvement in these areas is almost complete."
Senju Tobirama: "This brat... The only real difference between him and a Kage-level fighter is likely his Chakra reserves."
But!
Chakra capacity probably won't be an issue for Uchiha Sasuke!
After Uchiha Sasuke awakens his Mangekyō Sharingan in the future, his Chakra will experience a massive surge!
Every Uchiha who awakens the Mangekyō Sharingan sees their strength instantly rise to Kage level!
A qualitatively different Sharingan!
A skyrocketing Chakra reserve!
All-round enhancements to perception and reflexes!
These will boost a person's strength in terrifying ways!
After adding all of that, it's enough to make a person's strength undergo a qualitative change!
Uchiha Madara: "Senju Tobirama, don't worry, he'll take his revenge on Konoha once he awakens the Mangekyō Sharingan."
Senju Tobirama: "asshole!"
---
[Steam rises and fills the forest.]
[Orochimaru, who was quietly hiding in the dark, felt a bit of a headache at the moment.]
[How could he capture Uchiha Sasuke?]
[Long-range combat, the opponent's Fire Style and Lightning Style are very strong, and his combat experience is not bad. He couldn't defeat Sasuke quickly.]
[Perhaps he could only rely on outlasting him.]
[After all, Uchiha Sasuke is only a 12-year-old boy. Despite his talent, it would be impossible for him to compare to a veteran Kage-level powerhouse in terms of Chakra reserves.]
---
Tsunade: "Orochimaru, I feel ashamed for you! You're reduced to trying to exhaust the opponent's Chakra!"
Orochimaru:
That is his counterpart in another world; it has nothing to do with him in this one!
Besides!
What's the point of criticizing him now?
Once his counterpart in another world captures Uchiha Sasuke and completes the reincarnation process using his body, he will obtain such a perfect vessel with immense talent!
Compared to that, everything else is trivial.
Uchiha Fugaku: "Sasuke is in danger now! Where's the examiner for the Chūnin exam? Why haven't they noticed what's happening?"
Hatake Kakashi: "...At this point, it's probably useless for the examiner to show up. Orochimaru has recognized Sasuke's talent, and I fear he's set on obtaining Sasuke's body.
Even if a Konoha Shinobi arrives, Orochimaru likely won't retreat immediately!
He might try to deal with the Konoha Shinobi while waiting for Sasuke to run out of Chakra, then capture him and escape from Konoha!"
Haruno Sakura: "So what now? Sasuke, what can he do next?"
Nara Shikamaru: "If Sasuke were alone, he might be able to escape. But Naruto and Sakura are with him, and Orochimaru could capture them to threaten Sasuke!"
For a moment, everyone stared at the gold-framed screen, anxiously awaiting the next development.

[In the forest of death.]
[A large lake now stood where the blast wave hit.]
[On the lake, hot steam filled the air.]
[Sasuke's Sharingan spun rapidly, constantly tracking Orochimaru, unleashing one Muji Fire Style after another.]
[Suddenly, he had a spark of inspiration!]
[Previously, he had tried to learn Sage techniques, but it didn't work out. Back then, he had wondered if he could harness the power of nature to enhance his ninjutsu.]
[He just hadn't come up with a concrete plan.]
[But now!]
[In the midst of this high-intensity battle, inspiration had struck!]
[In the sky, a massive amount of water vapor had formed a large black cloud!]
["Hehe, Sasuke, how much Chakra do you have left now?"]
[Orochimaru darted across the water, dodging the fireballs flying toward him.]
[Although Uchiha Sasuke's Muji Fire Style was powerful, at this distance, Orochimaru could avoid the attacks with his foresight and preparation.]
[If things continued like this, Sasuke's Chakra would eventually be depleted!]
[And when that happened, Sasuke's body would be his!]
[As Orochimaru observed Sasuke, who was still unmoved and continuously spewing Great Fireballs, he shook his head internally.]
[Even a genius can fall.]
[Although Orochimaru planned to win by draining his Chakra, Sasuke truly had no means of driving him back!]
[Suddenly!]
[Orochimaru noticed Sasuke jump onto a tree, panting slightly.]
[Orochimaru's heart leapt with excitement!]
[The boy was finally about to reach his limit!]
["Tsk tsk, Uchiha Sasuke, at your age, to have pushed me to this extent is something to be proud of."]
[Orochimaru said this with genuine seriousness.]
[Even he couldn't claim to have possessed such strength at Sasuke's age.]
[Uchiha Sasuke was a genius destined to surpass even his older brother, Uchiha Itachi!]
["..." Sasuke suddenly smiled from his position in the tree, catching Orochimaru off guard.]
[Sasuke was genuinely pleased at that moment.]
[In fact, he was elated!]
[For the past month, he had been worried about his slowing progress.]
[He had attempted to find ways to increase his Chakra reserves but failed every time.]
[He had also wanted to create more powerful ninjutsu, but he lacked any solid ideas.]
[These struggles had often left him feeling frustrated.]
[Now!]
[He had finally completed his new jutsu!]
["Orochimaru, consider it an honor to be the first witness to my new jutsu."]
[Sasuke extended his hand toward the sky, sending a bolt of lightning shooting into the dark clouds above.]
[With that release of Lightning Style, the thunder and lightning already brewing in the large storm cloud became even more agitated!]
["What is this?!" Orochimaru's expression changed dramatically.]
[Is this his new jutsu?]
---
Namikaze Minato: "Is he trying to use the natural lightning? Smart move!"
Senju Tobirama: "So that's it! No wonder he released so many Fire Styles earlier—it was to generate water vapor and form thunderclouds!"
Fourth Raikage: "No way. I assume he's trying to use a small amount of his own Lightning Style Chakra to draw in natural lightning for an attack... But can that really be controlled?"
Jiraiya: "With Sasuke's level of Chakra control, it might just work!"
Tsunade: "Hehe, Sasuke can thank Orochimaru for that book. After reading it, he found a way to improve his Chakra control."
Orochimaru:
I'm starting to feel nervous!
---
[Boom!]
[Within the dark clouds, a terrifying giant Thunder Beast began to form!]
[Shaped like a qilin, the creature crackled with lightning, rolling through the dark clouds, occasionally peering down at the earth!]
[Orochimaru's face turned pale under the harsh glare of the lightning.]
[This jutsu!]
[The scale is enormous—there's no time to escape its range!]
[Earth Style won't work!]
[The elements are incompatible, especially against such a powerful Lightning Style!]
["This jutsu, I've named it Lightning Style: Kirin. Experience it for yourself, Orochimaru."]
[Sasuke pulled down his hand from the sky, commanding the thunder and lightning.]
[Roar!!!]
[Accompanied by a deafening roar, the ferocious Thunder Beast Kirin plummeted to the ground, charging with destructive force!]
