"Orochimaru, are you okay?"
Tsunade waited until the Third Raikage led his assault team away before coming to Orochimaru, nervously touching her arm and pinching it to ensure the bones had healed.
"Tsunade, you're worrying too much."
Orochimaru poked Tsunade's forehead, looking at the Sealing Technique formula on her face, glowing crimson, extending into her clothes and covering her entire body.
"How does it feel? The Regeneration Technique I developed."
"It's amazing!"
After confirming Orochimaru's arm was fine, Tsunade relaxed, hugged her waist, and leaned into her embrace, "Orochimaru, are you using the complete Regeneration Technique now?"
"Yes... the Regeneration Technique that can be performed without the Reverse Cursed Seal Blood Imprint."
Orochimaru's hand rested on Tsunade's back, gently patting her.
"Tsunade, we should go back..."
Before Orochimaru could finish speaking, she felt a hand touching her leg.
"What are you doing?"
Orochimaru pinched Tsunade's cheek.
"Hehe... I just wanted to see if it felt the same as in the genjutsu world."
Tsunade grinned. The touch was so delightful!
Why do I feel like you've awakened a peculiar Hobbies... Orochimaru looked at Tsunade's silly smile. Why did it seem so lewd?
"I said, we should go back!"
Orochimaru glared at Tsunade, pinching her cheeks and pulling them hard.
"Then... before we go back, let me touch it a little longer?"
Bang--!
"Ugh..."
Tsunade clutched her head, looking at the tightly clenched fist of Orochimaru with a wronged expression.
"Just be normal!"
Orochimaru looked helplessly at Tsunade, took her hand, and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to the Village.
This time's harvest was good. She obtained the Third Raikage's body tissue. His physique was so powerful; cloning him to create experimental subjects would be perfect.
"Is it over?"
Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado saw that there had been no movement outside Konoha for a long time. Judging by the commotion caused by Orochimaru and Tsunade's battle with the Third Raikage's assault team, it was very likely that the battle had ended.
"Lord Homura, let's go take a look!"
Utatane Koharu was very worried about Orochimaru and Tsunade's safety. They were Konohas Sannin, the future of Konoha.
"Lady Koharu, Lord Homura, the Cloud's assault team has retreated."
Just then, Yamanaka Kawahara's voice rang out. Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado relaxed. Konoha's biggest crisis had been averted.
"Kawahara, where are Orochimaru and Tsunade?"
Utatane Koharu asked.
"Orochimaru and Tsunade have gone home to rest."
Yamanaka Kawahara replied.
"I see..."
"Lady Koharu, Lord Homura, should I notify Orochimaru and Tsunade to come to the Hokage Building to report the situation?"
Yamanaka Kawahara inquired.
"No need, let them rest well."
Utatane Koharu and Homura Mitokado exchanged glances. Having just fought a powerful enemy from Kumogakure, it would be too heartless to ask Orochimaru and Tsunade to come over at this time.
Besides, it's just a post-battle report, isn't it?
There's no rush.
On the other battlefield, Konoha was clashing with Sunagakure.
The Third Kazekage's Bloodline Limit, Magnet Release, manipulated iron sand to form a giant triangular pyramid, which he hurled towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi wielded his adamantine staff. The extended adamantine staff thickened and shattered the iron sand triangular pyramid!
The adamantine staff continued to extend towards the Third Kazekage!
A large amount of iron sand gathered in front of the Third Kazekage, forming an Iron Sand Shield to block the attack.
The adamantine staff instantly shortened. Hiruzen Sarutobi held the adamantine staff in one hand, nimbly dodging the iron sand attacks and rapidly approaching the Third Kazekage. Against the Third Kazekage, who controlled iron sand and excelled at long-range attacks, rashly using Ninjutsu would be a waste of Chakra.
Hiruzen Sarutobi decided to use Taijutsu to attack the Third Kazekage. With his strength, combined with the adamantine staff formed by Enma, as long as he could hit the Third Kazekage, he could incapacitate him!
"Magnet Release: Iron Sand shuriken!"
The Third Kazekage formed hand signs, and the iron sand transformed into countless shuriken, which he shot towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Wind Release: Swift Wind Wall!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi formed the 'Tatsu' hand sign, shouted, and the wind formed by Wind Release Chakra wrapped around each iron sand shuriken.
"Wind Release?!"
The Third Kazekage sensed the iron sand shuriken losing control and immediately mobilized more Chakra to regain control of them!
Hiruzen Sarutobi gave up on contending with the Third Kazekage for control of the iron sand shuriken. He swung the adamantine staff at extreme speed, forming an impenetrable defense, deflecting all the incoming iron sand shuriken.
