At this moment, even without Kabuto's reminder, Orochimaru had already sensed what was behind him.
At some point.
A strange aura had suddenly appeared.
A terrifyingly low temperature that appeared out of nowhere enveloped his body.
Orochimaru felt a coldness he had never experienced before.
A bone-chilling cold spread from behind him.
"Sasori, to be captured so easily. This doesn't suit the reputation of Sasori of the Red Sand!"
Yuichi's voice sounded from behind Orochimaru.
Orochimaru slowly turned his head.
Behind him!
The person wearing that familiar black cloak had a young face.
In his pair of pitch-black eyes, there was a sharp gaze that was more terrifying than anyone else's.
Staring deadly at Yuichi, Orochimaru's eyes narrowed slightly.
"..."
"Could it be... the guy who broke into Sunagakure and defeated the One-Tail Jinchuriki a few days ago?"
"The rogue ninja of Kirigakure, Yuichi!"
"A new member of the Akatsuki?"
Yuichi nodded. "That's right, it's me!"
Orochimaru sneered. "Truly impressive skills, to be able to appear behind me without my knowledge. You're more terrifying than Sasori!"
"A guy who prepares in advance to ambush and sneak attack others has the nerve to say that about me?"
Sasori was furious. The dignified Sasori of the Red Sand, if he hadn't been ambushed.
How could he have been captured so easily.
Orochimaru looked at Yuichi coldly, but the black snake coming out of his mouth was still locked onto Sasori's heart.
"Although you are strong, I advise you not to act rashly. Otherwise, your companion's life will not be guaranteed!"
"Is that so! I don't think so."
Yuichi calmly looked at Orochimaru.
In his emotionless eyes, there was only endless cold light.
Under Orochimaru's verbal threat, Yuichi's gaze did not waver at all.
Orochimaru was a little unsure. In this situation, did this guy really think he could save Sasori?
Although Yuichi was behind him, he was two meters away.
The black snake was inches from Sasori's heart.
In this situation, Orochimaru didn't believe Yuichi could save Sasori from his hands.
Orochimaru's gaze swept towards Kabuto.
Then he looked at Yuichi again.
"Hmph hmph!"
"It seems you're planning to give it a try. It doesn't matter. If you fail, the one who dies is him!"
Orochimaru looked at Sasori.
He had originally thought that Sasori would be afraid and tell Yuichi not to act rashly. However, Sasori looked at Orochimaru with a faint smile.
The actions of the two made Orochimaru suddenly feel a little uncertain.
Did Sasori really think that this young kid could save him from his hands?
Orochimaru was one of the Sannin. Among the people he had captured, not many dared to try to rescue them so easily.
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and raised his hands. "It seems you have a way. Then let's make a deal! I'll let him go, and you'll pretend you never met me!"
As he was speaking, Kabuto, who was behind Yuichi, suddenly approached.
Chakra gathered in his palm, forming a chakra scalpel.
He instantly swung his hand, and the hand knife slashed quickly at the back of Yuichi's neck.
A slight sound of wind breaking was heard.
Orochimaru's eyes widened slightly.
He looked at Kabuto with joy.
'Well done! Kabuto.'
This guy seemed to have no defense against what was behind him.
The sharp chakra scalpel broke the wind.
Suddenly!
Crack...
The flashing chakra light disappeared.
Ice crystals appeared.
Yuichi had no reaction at all and was still staring straight at Orochimaru.
Only a wave of cold air instantly spread out from under his feet, sweeping towards his back.
In almost an instant.
Kabuto was turned into an ice statue, pinned to the spot.
At the same time, the bridge behind Yuichi, along with the forest and ground a dozen meters away, were all covered in a layer of ice crystals.
Hiss... hiss... hiss...
The next second, a breeze blew, bringing with it a heart-piercing cold air.
Yuichi glanced sideways at the hand knife by his face.
He sneered.
He waved his hand casually.
BAM!
Kabuto Yakushi's right arm instantly shattered into pieces.
In its frozen state, Kabuto Yakushi's arm was as fragile as a fake, shattering with a single touch.
Yuichi slowly lowered his hand, not even looking back at the Kabuto behind him.
His cold gaze was still fixed on Orochimaru.
"Hmph!"
White steam slowly rose from Yuichi's body.
The ground under his feet began to form frost.
Orochimaru's eyes widened as he looked at Yuichi in utter shock.
There was no movement of forming hand seals. Even Yuichi himself had not made any move.
The only thing that could be called a movement was that Yuichi's eyes had widened slightly.
He had only moved his eyes.
Just by moving his eyes, he had instantly erupted with a terrifying cold air that froze Kabuto in an instant. It had even turned the area a dozen meters behind him into a scene of ice and snow.
Orochimaru had never seen a Kekkei Genkai with such power.
'Ice...'
'The Yuki clan of Kirigakure?!'
'What terrifying power. To think that Ice Style can be used to such a degree.'
A trace of greed flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.
Yuichi was clearly a very suitable vessel for reincarnation.
Such a powerful Ice Style Kekkei Genkai.
What a perfect vessel!
Yuichi narrowed his eyes and looked at Orochimaru. "Mr. Orochimaru, I'm looking for you to get something back. This thing belongs to the Akatsuki. I hope you will give it to me."
Something?
The first thing Orochimaru thought of was that ring.
"For the Ring of Kūchin?"
"Your Kekkei Genkai is special, kid. But your companion is in my hands now. You have no qualification to make me hand it over!"
Yuichi nodded. "I understand. I have to capture you to make you hand it over, right?"
Orochimaru smiled. "Capture me? Sasori's life, you don't care about it? Although your power is strong, I am one hundred percent confident that I can kill him before you make a move!"
"Then why don't you try?"
Hearing this, Orochimaru was stunned.
Was this guy that confident in his power?!
"Heh!"
"Alright!"
The moment Orochimaru's words came out, or more accurately, as he was speaking.
The black snake in his mouth opened its mouth and bit at Sasori's heart.
Orochimaru had no intention of competing with Yuichi.
Since Yuichi gave him no room for negotiation, Orochimaru was prepared to kill Sasori directly.
Deal with one first, then the other. Otherwise, fighting one against two would be too much of a disadvantage.
Hiss!
The black snake bit at Sasori's heart.
In Orochimaru's eyes, Yuichi had not moved. It was impossible for him to save Sasori in time!
However, suddenly!
Orochimaru discovered that something was wrong.
His eyes suddenly noticed his own body.
It was rapidly being frozen from the bottom up.
'How could...'
There was no warning at all...
His frozen body was completely unable to move.
Orochimaru's face became extremely ugly.
'Not good!'
He quickly opened his mouth at the fastest speed.
He activated the Orochimaru-Style Body Replacement Technique.
Pfft!
A new body was spat out from his mouth.
Orochimaru, with a snake's tail, quickly retreated.
The spreading ice chased after him.
After running for a dozen meters, the freezing ice finally stopped.
A large area of the forest was completely sealed in ice.
Orochimaru's previous body, like Kabuto's, stood in place, motionless, turned into an ice sculpture.
The black snake that was biting at Sasori also stopped at the last moment.
It was completely frozen into a block of ice.
The snakes that had trapped Sasori were also frozen.
Only Sasori's main body puppet was completely fine.
Now, even Sasori was surprised.
'Can this guy accurately control the target to be frozen?!'
'His control over chakra is probably no worse than mine!'
