Naruto: Creating Immortal Techniques at Six, Shocking Uncle Snake

Chapter 144: The Oppressive Presence of Uchiha Madara!

"Obito!"

Orochimaru glared at Obito with a grim expression. This guy was no match for him, yet defeating him was incredibly challenging.

After all, Obito's Kamui was a life-saving divine technique. If Obito's sole intent was to stall him rather than engage in a direct fight, Orochimaru estimated a 99% chance he wouldn't be able to do anything about it—even with his super-Kage-level abilities.

As Orochimaru contemplated strategies and prepared to use a diversion, he suddenly noticed Obito starting to form hand seals.

The sequence of seals was shockingly familiar.

"This… isn't this for the Reanimation Jutsu? What's he planning?"

"Looks like Ishihara really isn't here anymore. In that case, let's summon him back!" Obito roared. "Reanimation Jutsu!"

The ground began to quake violently.

A coffin slowly rose from the earth, and as it opened, the man inside left Orochimaru utterly stunned.

This… this was Uchiha Madara! The legendary man!

"Hmm? Has the plan already succeeded? No… this isn't the Samsara of Heavenly Life. What's going on?"

Madara turned his head to look at the caster, momentarily pausing when he saw Obito.

Immediately, his expression darkened.

"What's the meaning of this? Where is Nagato?"

Although Madara didn't raise his voice, the sheer pressure from his aura caused a cold sweat to bead on Obito's forehead.

No wonder he was the most powerful man of the Uchiha clan and someone who could rival Hashirama Senju. His mere words carried immense weight and terror.

Standing off to the side, Orochimaru felt an overwhelming pressure, realizing that Madara's power far exceeded his own.

"There was a disruption in the plan," Obito quickly summarized. "A powerful individual interfered with everything. Right now, Orochimaru has possession of the Six-Tails, and the Nine-Tails is still within its Jinchūriki. Nagato is busy dealing with the rest of the Immortal Organization."

Madara's piercing gaze shifted to Orochimaru upon hearing this.

"The Six-Tails is in his hands?"

"Yes."

"Good. Tell Nagato to stop worrying about the Immortal Organization and focus on obtaining the Nine-Tails. Leave this one to me."

Madara spoke with absolute confidence. To him, Obito—despite being Kage-level—was nothing more than a messenger. After all, with Kamui, Obito could traverse distances quickly and easily.

Now that he was here, Madara saw no reason why any of these people could pose a threat.

After all, he was the strongest in the Shinobi World—Uchiha Madara.

Not even the Sage of Six Paths could deter him. Soon, he would become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki and attain power equal to the Sage himself. Once the Infinite Tsukuyomi was activated, the entire Shinobi World would finally experience peace!

"You must be Orochimaru."

After Obito departed, Madara's gaze once again fixed on Orochimaru.

This time, the pressure on Orochimaru reached a new height. It felt as if countless mountains were crushing him.

Orochimaru found it unbearable, unable to decide how to act. No matter what strategy he envisioned, it seemed Madara would easily counter it, exposing countless vulnerabilities.

Watching Orochimaru's heightened vigilance, Madara found it amusing.

"Does he really think being on guard will help him?"

With that thought, Madara charged straight at Orochimaru, deciding to deal with him using only taijutsu.

"So fast!"

Orochimaru's pupils contracted as he frantically formed hand seals. However, midway through the sequence, Madara grabbed him by the throat with a single hand.

"Pathetic. Compared to Hashirama, you're nothing more than a genin," Madara taunted, mercilessly tightening his grip.

Orochimaru's eyes rolled back as he coughed up blood and lost consciousness.

Madara shook his head in disappointment. This was the man Nagato and the others wasted so much time on? And they still hadn't collected all nine Tailed Beasts? Were they slacking off, or had they never intended to revive him in the first place?

Annoyed, Madara tossed Orochimaru's limp body to the ground, ready to investigate the Nine-Tails' situation.

But just as he was about to leave, Orochimaru's mouth suddenly opened, and a new Orochimaru emerged from it.

"This is Orochimaru's Body Substitution Technique?"

"Interesting. You're still alive? Looks like…"

"Hmm? What's this?"

Madara's gaze narrowed in disbelief as he noticed Orochimaru's Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

"How could this be? That's the Sharingan! And not just the Mangekyō Sharingan—it's the Eternal Mangekyō!"

Madara was stunned. Orochimaru wasn't even an Uchiha. How did he possess such a thing?

Moreover, the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan wasn't something one could acquire so easily. Madara himself had only achieved it by transplanting his brother's eyes.

"This guy is hiding a massive secret."

Now intrigued, Madara's Sharingan began spinning rapidly. After all, he had a Sharingan too.

And he would soon uncover everything Orochimaru was hiding.
