Naruto: If Sasuke Awakens Entry System

Giant trees towered to the sky, and dots of sunlight fell on the ground.

Sasuke said, "To pass the exam, we need to collect both the 'Heaven' and 'Earth' scrolls and reach the central tower within the specified time. So, I think we should move quickly towards the tower to seize the initiative."

Sakura asked, "Sasuke, do you mean we should wait and ambush those teams that have already collected the scrolls?"

Sasuke nodded, "In this exam, the other teams are all enemies. We don't have to be soft."

Sakura clenched her fists, "I understand."

Naruto was full of fighting spirit, "Just watch my amazing performance!"

With the plan set, Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto quickly moved towards the central tower. The Forest of Death was vast, filled with poisonous snakes, beasts, and traps, which greatly hindered their progress.

After half a day, while searching for water to quench his thirst, Sasuke accidentally saved a red-haired girl from being killed by a bear. Sasuke didn't think much of it, but the girl, Karin, was deeply impressed by Sasuke's heroic figure and would have a significant connection with him in the future.

As afternoon approached, Sakura expressed her concern, "Sasuke, it's getting dark. Should we keep going?"

Sasuke shook his head slightly, "Let's find a place to camp. It's too dangerous to travel at night."

Naruto clutched his stomach, "I'm so hungry, I want to eat Ichiraku Ramen."

Sakura's forehead twitched with irritation, "Naruto, you're so troublesome!"

Suddenly, Sasuke became alert. Why was it so quiet now when he could hear the chirping of insects just moments ago?

Naruto rubbed his hands, "It's so cold!"

Sakura crossed her arms, "I feel like something's off. It's giving me goosebumps."

Sasuke's eyes narrowed. What an incredible killing intent—it made the air feel cold even before the enemy appeared. This person must be very powerful!

"Naruto, Sakura, stay focused and be alert. The enemy is coming!"

As soon as he spoke, the ground shook violently. Moments later, a giant snake rushed forward, knocking Naruto dozens of meters away.

Sakura screamed, "Naruto!"

Sasuke was about to check on Naruto when he felt an overwhelming murderous aura pressing down on him. Sakura was affected and nearly collapsed from fear.

Sasuke activated his Sharingan, and his surge of momentum instantly broke through the oppressive killing intent. "Sakura, stay by my side. The real enemy has appeared!"

Almost simultaneously, Naruto's voice roared, "Damn snake, take this! Multiple Shadow Clones!"

Sakura breathed a sigh of relief and stood nervously behind Sasuke.

Clap, clap, clap—Orochimaru's distinctive hoarse voice echoed, "Impressive, breaking my killing intent at such a young age. You truly are a member of the Uchiha clan."

Sasuke looked at Orochimaru. His face was pale, his eyes unblinking, and his long, snake-like tongue flicked back and forth.

Sakura looked disgusted, "Ugh, so gross!"

Orochimaru said sinisterly, "Little girl, you talk too much. I'll peel off your skin later!"

Sakura shivered in fear.

Sasuke quickly interrupted to draw Orochimaru's attention and called the system to check Orochimaru's entries.

[Entries: Eight-Headed Serpent Technique (Gold ★★★★☆), Impure World Reincarnation (Gold ★★★☆☆), Summoning Technique: Ryuchi Cave (Gold ★★★☆☆), Wind Style Prodigy (Gold ★★★), Ninja Scientist (Gold ★★★), Sealing Technique Master (Gold ★★★), Pseudo-Immortal (Gold ★★☆), Curse Sealing Technique (Gold ★★), All-round Ninja Technique (Gold ★★), Leader Temperament (Gold ★☆), Both Good and Evil (Gold ★☆)...]

Sasuke looked at the densely packed golden entries and couldn't help but twitch his mouth. This pale-faced man could never be a Genin here for the exam! Could he be a spy who infiltrated Konoha?

The thought made Sasuke's heart race. If Orochimaru was indeed a spy, things could end badly. In this case, it was better to strike first!

Orochimaru taunted, "What's wrong, little Uchiha bird? Why haven't you spoken since just now?"

Sasuke tossed the scroll up and down, "The scroll is yours, but let us leave safely."

Sakura looked at Sasuke in disbelief.

Orochimaru's eyes drifted to the scroll, his tone cruel, "I can get that anytime by killing you..."

Sasuke didn't wait for him to finish and attacked.

Sasuke's Sharingan glowed red, "I knew it would come to this. Take this, Genjutsu: Jagged Hang Technique!"

Simultaneously, his hands formed seals rapidly.

Swish, swish, Wei, Wu, Si, Chen, Zi, Chou, Yin!

"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

Instantly, three dragon heads formed a triangle and fired scorching flame bullets.

Orochimaru's expression changed slightly. Such powerful ocular abilities temporarily immobilized him! And the speed of those seals—not inferior to a Jonin.

It happened in a split second.

With three loud explosions, Orochimaru was engulfed by flames.

Sakura was extremely anxious, "Sasuke, killing a candidate will disqualify you!"

Sasuke pulled Sakura up and leaped to a nearby tree, "This level of technique can't kill him!"

As he spoke, his hands flew into another seal, "Fire Style: Head Hunter Jutsu!"

Boom!

With Orochimaru at the center, the area within dozens of meters was completely destroyed. Thick smoke billowed into the sky.

Sakura was stunned. Had Sasuke gone mad?

Soon, the smoke cleared.

Sakura bet that disgusting long tongue was burned to ashes. But things rarely go as expected.

Orochimaru emerged from the ground like a snake, his body covered in burn marks, and his human skin mask half-burned, looking very disheveled.

Sakura widened her eyes, as if she had seen a ghost.

Orochimaru licked his lips and laughed devilishly, "Good strategy, but it's futile against absolute strength."

Swoosh—

Orochimaru vanished in an instant.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed, and he pushed Sakura away.

Bang—

Kunai clashed, sparks flew.

Orochimaru smiled cruelly.

Sasuke smirked and formed a seal with one hand.

Swish, swish, swish—

Orochimaru was shocked, "What, one-handed seals?"

Sasuke smiled coldly, "Water Style: Water Wall!"

The water column shot skyward. Originally a defensive jutsu, it now had an offensive effect.

Orochimaru quickly retreated to avoid it.

The Water Wall came quickly and dissipated just as fast.

Orochimaru completed his seals with astonishing speed before landing, "Hiding in Shadow Snake Hands!"

Instantly, dozens of poisonous snakes surged towards Sasuke.

Sakura covered her mouth in fear, worried to death.

At this moment, Naruto, having dealt with the giant snake, saw this and shouted, "Sasuke!"

Sasuke remained calm in the face of danger. He had already completed the seal for the S-rank jutsu—Water Style: Water Severing Wave under the cover of the Water Wall!

Success or failure depended on this move!

Sasuke's eyes snapped open, his Sharingan locking onto Orochimaru like a flash of lightning, "Take this, Water Style: Water Severing Wave!"
