Chapter 90 : Chunin Exam Finals 8

Clone right now was enjoying the ending of the fight between Hiruzen and Orochimaru.

It finally came to the point that he had to use the Ripper death seal, clone had to say that his back was sweaty only by being in the presence of 4 Kage-level shinobi.

He didn't want to admit it but he just wanted to pop away and get out of here. But that won't do.

He waited until the right time. Seeing Hiruzen using the ripper death seal, he was sure now that at least Hiruzen was as good as dead.

But that is not enough, he wanted more, if possible take out Orochimaru as well.

Practically the only way to kill Orochimaru or at least stop him from completely coming back to life is letting the Shikigami completely eat his soul.

If Shika was right then the curse marks contain a very little part of Orochimaru's soul.

Not all the curse marks he places on others have this, after all, ripping off his own soul has consequences. So, maybe he won't completely die even if his soul gets completely sealed away by Hiruzen here but the clone was sure that there is no way Orochimaru resurrecting anytime soon.

So the clone waited, waited until finally Hiruzen caught the two past Hokage and finally he caught Orochimaru's soul.

Just when this happened Shika's clone which by the way was hiding nearby moved, and he sneakily connected his shadow with with Orochimaru. And use Shadow Binding.

Both Hiruzen and Orochimaru were surprised when the shadow started to bind on Orochimaru's body, completely making his immobile now.

Shadow Binding with Ripper Death, there was not way that Orochimaru was able to move now.

In the cannon, he was at least able to manipulate his Sword somehow to pierce Hiruzen, but now there was no other way.

"What is this, Old man, what did you do ?" Orochimaru was panicking now.

But it was pointless shouting, even Hiruzen didn't know.

"Hahaha, I had no idea, but this explains what I am telling you Orochimaru, there is no way that you can destroy the village.

There will be always a next generation with the will of fire to protect the village." Hiruzen said not sure what was happening, though both knew that this was Nara clan's jutsu but no one saw where the Jutsu came from. Who uses it.

'Damn old man, why you are talking right now, I can't hold the snake uncle back for long, just seal his soul already.' Clone in the shadow curse.

But he knew that even right now Orochimaru was too strong for Hiruzen who was exhausted much due to fighting, to completely drag his soul away.

'Tch, my main body won't like this but whatever…' Clone muttered with irritation and started to absorb Orochimaru's chakra too, further making him weak.

Suddenly Orochimaru who was fiercely resisting suddenly felt his chakra getting drained fast, and an alarming feeling came to him.

But no matter how much he tried, he couldn't move at all. Hiruzen also felt that the resistance he was getting from Orochimaru was lessened, he didn't miss this change, giving his all he started to pull out Orochimaru's soul.

"Damn you, leave me. Let me go…" Orochimaru roared but could do nothing.

The clone felt dizzy, the speed he was absorbing the chakra from Orochimaru was immense. Even he the clone was getting dizzy, he couldn't help but feel bad for the main body, wondering just how long the main body would suffer this kind of headache after he popped out.

"It's time to go Orochimaru, let's end this… Master to Student." Hiruzen said as he used the last bit of his power to drag out Orochimaru's soul entirely.

And the next second, Orochimaru's entire soul was dragged out by the ripper and he swallowed both his and Hiruzen's souls together before disappearing.

But something really creepy happened, before the Shikigami went away, he looked at the clone and smiled at his scary-looking face, The clone felt a chill running down his spine at that look but he calmed himself down remembering that he was just a clone.

Good thing that the shinigami just disappeared after that… making the clone sigh in relief.

But there was no time to rest, he saw both the master's and student's bodies fall limb, completely lacking life and the barrier kept up by the sound four was disappearing.

'Alright, time to get out of here…' Clone mutters but that is when he suddenly sees something, he pauses there his mind working several miles a second and then a big grin spreads across his face.

"Okay, maybe I don't get to pop away this soon after all." Clone smiled.

Both Sasuke and Shika look at the dead body of Kabuto and sigh, killing him was harder than they anticipated.

"So you had to use it in the end…" Sasuke didn't ask, more like he was stating a fact.

Shika had a feeling that Sasuke had some resentment for him not using his Sharingan and hiding it. Not sure why but he chuck it up to the infamous Uchiha pride.

"I never said that I won't be using it, it's just that I rather not until I am not strong enough.

You have no idea how dangerous using them is, there are people in darkness who cover them, and most likely already have many of them…" Shika replied with solem tone but hearing this Shika who was planning on moving on to fight other Sand and Sound village shinobi, paused.

Those words took some time to register but when they did, it hit him like a brick.

His Chakra flared out but just before he was about to shout and make a fuss out of this. He found himself not being able to move again.

"Learn how to control your emotions Sasuke. It will save your life from the darkness hidden. And that is only when you will get really strong.

True power not only lies in the body, but in the mind as well.

One should also possess a strong mind to get strong.

 And stop making a fuss, I don't have any proof as of right now to give you but I am 90% sure that what I am saying is the truth.

"Let's talk later, and for the time being, just kill those Sound and Sand Bastards.

"The score is 1 to 0, you are already losing Uchiha." Shika replied and then let go of Sasuke.

 Sasuke at this grumble, calms his emotions and finally replies.

 "What you mean 1 to 0, that last attack means nothing…if not for my Chidori that last attack you used would have never connected." Sasuke sends a challenging look at Shika. His Shariangan flared out looking at him with narrow eyes.

"I'm not talking about Kabuto." Shika smiled and then pointed directly to where he used his water convergence.

Sasuke followed his hand, only to find the that last attack from Shika didn't only penetrate Kabuto's head but also kept going to kill another sand village shinobi, pretty much cutting his body into two.

Sasuke seeing this just clenched his fist and turned around, not determined to kill more than Shika.

"Hehehehee….
