Outside the sealing formation that imprisoned and studied Otsutsuki Hagoromo's soul, Uchiha Yu built 12 large force fields based on magnetic escape.

These force fields are combined in pairs, emitting repulsive and attractive forces respectively, capturing information particles that escape from the seal formation due to the tunneling effect.

Uchiha Yu and Senju Tobirama first solved the sealing formation and compressed the various particles confined in it into balls.

Such as the information particles of Otsutsuki Hagoromo, the high-speed rotating lead protons, and the messy particles generated in nuclear reactions, were squeezed together indiscriminately, and under the overlapping time seals, a sealed ball larger than a basketball was formed.

Then they carefully dealt with the outer magnetic seal array, collected the information particles in it, and compressed them into sealing beads the size of rice grains.

Collect these sealed objects of all sizes and launch them through the World Gate to the parallel time and space that was split off from Konoha 10 years ago.

The particles in these seals all carry information about Otsutsuki Hagoromo. Only by spreading it in the space-time where he originally lived and with the help of the shielding effect of space-time itself can the information be prevented from being obtained by other Six Paths Sages.

This is the safest way to deal with the soul remains that Uchiha You could think of.

It has to be said that this was a huge project. By the time Uchiha Yu and Senju Tobirama had finished dealing with all of this, it was already the 53rd year of Konoha.

Orochimaru finally made up his mind and resigned from the position of the Fourth Hokage.

During his tenure as Hokage, the Hokage's administrative authority was comprehensively expanded.

From initially managing the 200,000 people of Konoha Village and the defense of the Fire Kingdom, he became the direct ruler of everything in the Fire Kingdom.

The Fourth Hokage also indirectly managed the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth through agents.

The three countries combined have a population of 140 million and 57,000 ninjas, all under the control of the Fourth Hokage.

This is a huge power unprecedented in the ninja world. The Fourth Raikage of the Land of Lightning and the Fifth Mizukage of the Land of Water are as fearful of the Hokage as they are envious.

But Orochimaru had long been fed up with it. He didn't like power at all. He was only interested in exploring the mysteries of ninjutsu and gaining eternal life.

If it weren't for his love for Konoha Village, which forced him to wait patiently for the power to stabilize and for Minato Namikaze to grow, this guy would have quit long ago.

Uchiha Yu also understood this, which is why he accepted Namikaze Minato as the Fifth Hokage.

Because waiting for Minato to mature is Orochimaru's limit, he absolutely cannot endure Uchiha Shisui growing up.

If Orochimaru was really forced to do this, and the snake's heart became completely crazy and abnormal, he might even make a big joke by causing the Fourth Hokage to defect and become a traitor.

It's only Minato Namikaze who can help.

The candidate was announced, the Jonin Conference was held for voting, and the Fifth Hokage was confirmed to take the position. The whole process was smooth and successful.

Finally, in the Hokage Building, Orochimaru took off the Hokage's hat and slammed it heavily on the head of Namikaze Minato, who was wearing the Hokage's haori, in front of Jiraiya and Tsunade.

He abandoned this heavy burden without any reluctance, and handed over the enormous power and the unfinished task of unifying the ninja world to the Fifth Hokage Minato Namikaze.

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Orochimaru disappeared silently.

Apart from Jiraiya and Tsunade, almost no one noticed the departure of the former Hokage, and his two classmates did not step forward to stop him.

As Orochimaru's best friends, they all knew that Orochimaru's heart was no longer in the village.

Jiraiya and Tsunade smiled at each other, then shook their heads.

Jiraiya raised his hand and gestured, suggesting, "Orochimaru is finally free, shall we go have a drink to celebrate for him?"

Tsunade sneered, "It's Orochimaru's wedding, why are you drinking with me?"

Jiraiya has been beaten and scolded by Tsunade since he was a child. It has become a daily routine in his life: "Well, if you don't want to go, then I will go drink by myself."

“Drink! Drink! Drink! All you know is drinking!!”

Tsunade angrily scolded, "You've been drinking for so many years since Myoboku Mountain severed the contract. Why don't you cheer up?"

"Look at how decadent you are now. The Fifth Hokage is obviously your disciple, but you threw him to Orochimaru to educate. Is your sense of responsibility dead?"

"Are you trying to drown yourself in alcohol? Are you trying to kill yourself on purpose?"

Jiraiya said hesitantly: "No, no, I don't want to commit suicide, I just can't find the purpose of life..."

Tsunade became even angrier. She clearly didn't want to be angry on such a good day, but when she heard Jiraiya bringing up the same excuse he had been using for years, her anger couldn't be controlled and she broke out.

"What the hell are these life goals? Looking for the child of destiny? Those are all business of the toads in Myoboku Mountain. What does that have to do with you?"

"The toads of Myoboku Mountain ignored you, and you don't know what to do. Are you the toads' dog?"

Tsunade's words were sharp, but Jiraiya had long been seasoned and had become a tough guy, immune to words like dog, trash, etc.

He smiled and scratched his head: "It's not that serious. I just can't find the target for the time being. Maybe Myoboku Mountain will be restored in a few days..."

Tsunade shook her head helplessly and finally decided to ignore him.

We are all middle-aged people in our forties who can be responsible for ourselves. No one can be responsible for another person's future.

What's more, Tsunade is very busy now, busy with her relationship with Kato that has ended after almost twenty years. How could she have so much time and energy to care about Jiraiya?

Tsunade left in a hurry, so she didn't notice the surprise hidden in Jiraiya's helpless smile.

After Orochimaru disappeared from the Hokage Building, he left Konoha Village without stopping, taking the most confidential express passage.

The Flying Thunder God Team, composed of three ninjas, sent him directly to the Great Desert of the Wind Country. The location of the Flying Thunder God coordinates was just outside the Loulan Laboratory.

Orochimaru took off the Hokage haori he was wearing, revealing a white outfit and a lavender Shirenwa belt, which was his favorite outfit before he became Hokage.

He smiled and threw the Hokage haori to the ninjas of the Flying Thunder God Team, sent them back to Konoha Village, and then began knocking on Loulan's door.

Loulan was bought by Uchiha You more than ten years ago and has always been the exclusive territory of the Uchiha clan. Soon, the Uchiha ninja on duty ran out.

Orochimaru ignored the young ninjas shouting "Fourth Hokage" and walked into Loulan Kingdom without hesitation, ordering the Uchiha people, "Go! Call out your clan leader Uchiha Yuu!"

"I know he's hiding here, and I know I can't find him by myself, but if you don't call him out, I won't leave!"

It was the first time that the Uchiha saw the Fourth Hokage act like a rogue. They looked at each other and could only say helplessly: "Please wait a moment, Fourth Hokage."

"The Patriarch has instructed that you should notify him immediately upon your arrival."

"The Patriarch will come to greet you soon."

As he spoke, the leading Uchiha took out a silver talisman from his arms and tore it open. The silver talisman instantly burned.

Orochimaru discovered that the silver flame did not emit high temperature, but instead emitted waves of mysterious fluctuations.

He was somewhat familiar with this kind of fluctuation. It was very similar to the fluctuation he felt when he was carried by the three-member Flying Thunder God team across a distance of thousands of miles.

But it's a little different.

Orochimaru became interested. He licked his cheek with his tongue and excitedly observed all the Uchiha around him, discovering more and more good things from them.

"Haha, that's great. Uchiha You has made great progress over the years. Your Uchiha clan has been completely transformed."

"Thank you for the compliment, Fourth Hokage."

Uchiha You appeared at some point in time. He separated the Uchiha ninjas and walked in front of Orochimaru.

After looking him up and down, he asked with a smile: "He is the powerful Hokage, are you really not reluctant to leave at all?"

Orochimaru smiled evilly: "What's the fun of power? What I like is ninjutsu and longevity."

Uchiha You nodded in satisfaction: "Let's go, there is an operation today."

Orochimaru followed Uchiha You and asked curiously, "Oh? You and me?"

"Of course not. There are six of us including you."

"There are so many people. This is a big operation."

"Well, it's the thing we didn't handle cleanly last time. This time we'll solve it completely."

Orochimaru's snake pupils shrank into a line in an instant.

He and Uchiha Yuu haven't done much together, the most recent one being many years ago when Uchiha Yuu and Miwa Masayo used his summoning technique to attack the Ryuchi Cave.

That time, a holy place was added to the Konoha Village as its foundation, but the Ryuchidong lineage was not completely wiped out, allowing the White Snake Sage and Ichikishima Hime to escape.

This is also a concern for Orochimaru, and he will always feel uncomfortable if it is not resolved.

Now that he heard that the problem could be completely solved, Orochimaru smiled brightly: "I just resigned and got some free time, and you found Myoboku Mountain. You are so lucky."

"Don't worry, I haven't slacked off in my training over the years, and I won't fall behind like I did last time."

"I'm not sure I can defeat the White Snake Immortal, but I'm sure I can defeat Princess Ichikishima."

Uchiha You curled his lips: "You are thinking well, Fourth Generation, but how can it be so easy to reserve a prey in advance?"

"We have dispatched so many people this time, and every target must be fought for."

Orochimaru was amused: "Haha, your strength is beyond doubt, and the strength of Miwa Masayo Sennin is also beyond doubt, but who else can compete for the target in Myoboku Mountain?"

"How can your Uchiha clan have so many powerful ninjas?"

"No, Uchiha Fugaku should be in Konoha Village. If he doesn't participate, I'm really curious, who else has the strength to participate in the battle of Myoboku Mountain?"

Uchiha You smiled and said, "There is absolutely no problem with your strength. You will know it later."

He reached out and placed his hand on Orochimaru's shoulder, admonishing him, "Relax and don't resist."

Orochimaru looked into Uchiha You's eyes, hesitated for a long time before reluctantly nodding, and the next moment they arrived at Huaguo Mountain.

"Welcome to the fourth holy place in the Ninja World - Huaguo Mountain."

Looking at the surrounding scenery and feeling the rich natural energy, Orochimaru was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

However, what shocked him even more was yet to come.

Suddenly a hand was placed on Orochimaru's shoulder: "I heard you did a good job, Fourth Hokage Orochimaru."

Since he became Hokage, countless people have said this to Orochimaru.

The Fourth Raikage Ai said, his tone filled with resentment.

The Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumi, said that it was full of vigilance and resistance.

The former Third Tsuchikage, Ohnoki, once said that it was the despair over the impending destruction of the Iwagakure Village.

But it was the first time that Orochimaru heard such a sentence that could convey such satisfaction and relief from a superior position. He turned around curiously, wanting to see which senior this was.

He was stunned to see three ninjas.

The one who patted his shoulder was the white-haired, blue-armored Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, whose tone was full of appreciation and satisfaction, but whose face had no expression.

Behind the Second Hokage was the First Hokage, Lord Hashirama Senju, with black hair and red armor, who was grinning from ear to ear.

There is also Lord Mito Uzumaki, who is standing shoulder to shoulder with the First Hokage, with his bright red hair combed into two huge buns and a gentle smile.

Orochimaru's face gradually stiffened because a little loli with long black hair climbed onto Uchiha You's shoulder and stared at him with her bright blue cat eyes.

Being looked down upon by its natural enemy from a high position would make even a venomous snake like Orochimaru tremble with fear.

But Orochimaru is Orochimaru. He quickly adjusted his mentality and put on the smiling mask on his face again.

He greeted everyone in a relaxed tone: "The First Hokage! The Second Hokage! Uzumaki Mito-sama! Miwa Masayo-sama!"

“I’m honored to be a part of this effort.”

Uchiha You saw Orochimaru return to normal and introduced: "The Fourth Hokage Orochimaru has just handed over the position of Hokage, so I invited him to join this operation."

Senju Tobirama nodded: "Orochimaru did a good job, I agree to let him join."

Senju Hashirama laughed and said, "The more people from Huaguo Mountain, the better. Welcome to join us!"

Uzumaki Mito nodded gently and said nothing.

Miwa Masayo looked at Orochimaru with a smile and also said nothing.

Uchiha You nodded and said, "Very good, everyone agrees, then we will set off now."

He raised his hand and waved, and the scenery around the six people changed instantly, from the Flower-Fruit Mountain with rich natural energy to an inconspicuous hillside.

Uchiha You didn't waste any explanation. He just raised his hand and waved towards the sky. A huge Flying Thunder God Formation appeared in the sky before him.

A few breaths later, five consecutive meteorites with a diameter of four kilometers and a speed of more than 25 times passed through the Flying Thunder God Formation. Covered by layers of white sound barrier clouds, they slammed heavily into the mountains in front of them.

The meteorites did not hit the mountain peaks; a hemispherical barrier that suddenly appeared in the air blocked them.

The high-speed meteorite energy was converted into heat energy and shock waves during the collision, and also caused violent earthquakes and unimaginable roars.

Five consecutive meteorites fell within a few seconds, destroying the barrier that suddenly appeared.

However, the barrier just happened to offset the kinetic energy of the five meteorites before it broke, which caused the meteorite fragments to lose their high speed and could only fall into the barrier with scorching heat.

Wildfires were set off, and some unlucky frogs and tadpoles were crushed to death, but the disaster brought by the meteorite ended there and did not cause large-scale damage.

Uchiha You was very satisfied with this. He said to Miwa Masayo proudly, "Look, this is my second attack on Myoboku Mountain. I have a good sense of proportion, right?"

The little girl gave a thumbs up and praised: "Well done!"

"It will be so convenient for me to take action next!"

Before she finished her words, the little girl disappeared into a ball of fire.

Myoboku Mountain is now burning everywhere, and Miwa Masayo's flame jumping allows her to be everywhere.

Senju Hashirama smiled and said, "The Great Sage Miwa Masayo has taken the lead, so I can't fall behind."

He formed seals with his hands to absorb the natural energy leaking from Mount Myoboku, and instantly entered the Sage Mode, with sage patterns appearing on his face.

Immortal Technique: Wood Release: True Thousand Hands

A wooden statue of a Bodhisattva carrying thousands of giant hands rose from the ground, carrying Hashirama Senju forward and stepped into the territory of Mt. Myoboku in one step.

Senju Tobirama shouted in dissatisfaction: "Brother, you got ahead again. How can you use the True Thousand Hands Ninjutsu at the beginning?"

He casually threw out a Flying Thunder God Kunai, teleported over when the kunai's speed slowed down, grabbed the kunai and threw it again.

By continuously using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Senju Tobirama caught up with the giant wooden Bodhisattva and even caught the giant toad of Mount Myōboku first.

Gamahiro is a giant green-skinned toad, second only to his brother Bunta in size.

As one of the core fighting forces of Myoboku Mountain, Gamahiro is one of the few toads who has his own equipment and is quite skilled in swordsmanship.

This giant toad is 14 meters tall, but it seems so insignificant in front of the wooden Buddha made of thousands of hands, just like an ordinary toad and an ordinary human.

Just when Gamahiro overcame his fear and wanted to draw his double swords to fight the Shin Senju, Tobirama Senju took the lead and performed his best water-style ninjutsu.

Water Style: Water Break Wave

A shiny white line swept across Toad Guang's body, instantly cutting the giant toad in half lengthwise, including the double knives crossed behind it, which were also cut into four pieces.

Gamabunta: "Brother!"

Toad Ken: "Guang!"

Fukasaku and Shima, who rushed out of the Gamamaru temple, also screamed, "My child!"

When the toads saw this tragic scene, they instantly realized that these human ninjas were enemies who came to destroy the Myobokusan lineage.

The adult toads took up their weapons and rushed towards these terrible enemies.

The young toads ran to the Great Immortal Temple in groups, trying to seek a chance of survival from Toad Pill.

At the same time, on a peak in a corner of Mt. Myoboku, several giant snakes swam out from a deep cave and pounced directly on the huge True Thousand-Armed Wooden Bodhisattva.

Princess Ichikishima, who was commanding these giant snakes, was entangled by the sudden appearance of Orochimaru as soon as she showed her head. She could no longer care about commanding the giant snakes to cause trouble for Hashirama Senju.

The poor White Snake Immortal was intercepted in the cave by Sanlun Yashi before he even showed his head, and the two immortals engaged in a fierce fight.

Now only Uchiha Yuu and Uzumaki Mito did not join the battle. He said to the red-haired beauty: "Please seal Myoboku Mountain again and don't let the toads run around."

"No problem." Uzumaki Mito nodded and said, "I will use the remains of the barrier that was just broken to rebuild a new barrier to seal off Myoboku Mountain."
