Ding!

Main Task: Dominate the Ninja School

Task Description: The host has successfully defeated the Four Skipping Class Heroes and has gained the attention of teachers and classmates.

Now, there's only one more mountain to conquer to dominate the Ninja School! This mountain is none other than Uchiha Sasuke, the orphan of the prestigious Uchiha clan, a powerful wielder of the Sharingan, and the reincarnation of Indra, who possesses unparalleled dominance in the Ninja School.

The old king is dead, long live the new king! Please defeat Uchiha Sasuke to achieve the goal of dominating the Ninja School.

Task Hint: This is a main task, it cannot be refused or avoided.

Uchiha Sasuke? A mountain?

Gensou glanced at Sasuke, who had risked defecting from the village to seek his power.

Is this the mountain?

"Let me see your strength afterward," Gensou said to Sasuke.

"Okay!"

Sasuke, thinking that Gensou wanted to understand his strength to teach him better, nodded excitedly.

"Where are we going?" he asked impatiently.

Leading the way, Gensou replied without looking back, "A good place."

...

"Itachi, I brought him."

In the forest, Itachi, who was watching in the direction of the Valley of the End, heard his partner's voice.

Without a change in his expression, he turned around, fixing the head of Sakon on Kisame's shoulder with his right hand. Their eyes met, and the three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly.

Soon, Sakon's eyes, filled with confusion, gleamed with joy in the illusion: "Lord Orochimaru! We successfully brought back Sasuke."

Itachi withdrew his hand and said flatly, "We have located Orochimaru. Inform the leader."

Kisame snapped Sakon's neck and nodded.

Soon, through the ring communication, Pain received the information and passed it to the closest pair of artists.

"Yo~ Sasori, we found Orochimaru's whereabouts. Hmm," Deidara exclaimed excitedly.

"That filthy snake, this time I'll skin him alive!" Sasori's eyes were filled with cold light.

Heretics always despise apostates more.

As fellow seekers of eternity, Sasori had always been unfriendly towards Orochimaru. During the previous hunt for Orochimaru, he was the most active.

But Orochimaru kept hiding deeper, and for a long time, there was no trace of him.

Finding his lair this time made Sasori more excited than ever.

"Let's go!"

"Alright!"

Deidara threw a small clay bird that instantly expanded, carrying him and Sasori. With a flap of its wings, it soared into the sky, flying swiftly towards Orochimaru's lair.

"Ah!!! Where is Sasuke? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Orochimaru's pained roars echoed through the underground base.

Kabuto, observing Orochimaru's condition, pushed his glasses up with a serious expression and said, "None of the medicines are working. This won't do. Lord Orochimaru, you might need to consider the backup plan."

"Where is Sasuke?" Orochimaru asked unwillingly.

Kabuto shook his head, "No news for a long time. It's likely that the mission failed."

"Even Kimimaro can't do it..."

Looking at his burning, painful hands and feeling the unbearable burden on his soul, Orochimaru finally faced reality and said, "Then..."

Boom!

Before he could finish, an explosion from above interrupted him.

Kabuto's face changed. He grabbed Orochimaru and flashed out of the room.

The next second.

The ceiling of the room collapsed.

Along with it came a shout filled with joy.

"Art is an explosion! Hmm!"

Boom boom boom!

A series of explosions echoed in the underground base.

Orochimaru, having steadied himself, looked up with an ugly expression, "Two troublesome guys have come."

As his voice fell, two figures descended through the hole in the ceiling.

Amidst the dust, the red cloud uniforms of the Akatsuki organization loomed.

Seeing them clearly, Kabuto understood why Orochimaru's face looked so bad.

Quickly, with one hand on his hip and the mouth on his other hand chewing clay vigorously, Deidara smiled and said, "Orochimaru, the traitor, finally we meet again."

"You filthy snake in the gutter, you won't escape this time," Sasori, hidden within Hiruko, said with killing intent.

"Really?"

Orochimaru sneered.

No time to ponder why the Akatsuki found this place now, Orochimaru glanced at Kabuto.

Kabuto nodded, preparing for battle, and said, "Lord Orochimaru, go do what you need to. Leave this to me."

Orochimaru decisively turned and headed deeper into the base.

"Kill him!"

Suddenly, Sasori's voice rang out.

Accompanied by a hand seal he made.

Sand Brain Manipulation!

A technique that uses a small needle to pierce the memory center of the brain, sealing the target's memories. Once the seal is lifted, the needle disappears, and the memories are restored.

The moment Sasori saw Kabuto, he recognized his former informant.

At this moment, he decisively lifted the memory seal.

Kabuto felt his brain swell, and a surge of additional memories flooded his mind.

"So... that's how it is."

Kabuto fully recognized himself.

Following Sasori's command, he turned and struck at Orochimaru.

Then, Orochimaru ran even faster towards the depths of the base.

Orochimaru never once looked back.

Seeing this, Sasori's confident pupils shrank, his face looking grim.

Beside him, Deidara shrugged and said, "I don't know what happened, but Sasori, it seems you were tricked."

"Attack!"

Sasori, never expecting his controlled pawn to betray him, said coldly.

"Should have done this earlier."

Deidara threw a handful of explosive clay grasshoppers that hopped swiftly towards Kabuto and Orochimaru.

"This is really troublesome. Let's hope Lord Orochimaru succeeds in the body transfer."

Kabuto turned around, sighed, and took on the task of stopping the enemy.

The fierce battle began.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Wind Style: Pressure!"

"Magnet Release: Gold Dust!"

Under the terrifying storm of gold dust, the underground base collapsed completely. Sasori and Deidara barely escaped.

Blowing the dust off, Scorpion looked at the transformed Orochimaru, the unconscious, dying Kabuto, and two other notable figures. His tone was displeased: "Still a step too late."
