Chapter 95
[+800 Power Stone Bonus Chapter!!]
"W-What is this guy... so terrifying..."
Naruto was trembling all over, completely frozen under the crushing weight of Orochimaru's killing intent. His pupils dilated in fear.
Sakura had already rolled her eyes back—on the verge of fainting.
Even Sasuke had fallen to one knee, body shaking. For the first time, he truly felt terror... and finally understood just how terrifying the opponent Natsuki had faced was.
Natsuki, in contrast, only had a layer of goosebumps. He was still standing firm.
Tenten and Shino flinched too, but even then, they held their ground beside Natsuki, clenching their teeth to resist Orochimaru's aura.
"I'm... actually weaker than Tenten? Even weaker than Shino? How can I accept that?!"
Sasuke gritted his teeth and stabbed his thigh with a kunai, using the pain to jolt himself back to clarity. Finally, he regained control of his body and pulled out a short blade for defense.
He hadn't finished learning Chidori yet, and this sword style was all he had.
"Damn it! What do I have to do to get stronger?!"
Orochimaru gave Sasuke a curious look, clearly pleased. At the very least, this Uchiha brat had guts. According to Kabuto's intel, he was learning Hatake-ryū Kenjutsu, and his talent wasn't bad.
