In a very vast forest, Tatsumi, Mikoto and Nawaki were working hard to survive.

In the ninja world, many animals were huge.

This can be seen from the toads of Mount Myōboku.

So, in this forest, there are not only huge trees and plants but also large wild beasts and Insects.

Uchiha Tatsumi, Mikoto and Nawaki were gasping for breath, standing in front of the giant pincer mantis and the wonderful frog that they have just defeated.

The kunai in Tatsumi's hand was covered with sharp Wind Attribute Chakra, deeply stuck into the head of the pincer mantis.

"Well, today's mission is complete. It's finished. Finally." Nawaki clapped his hands and stood up.

As for the animals that were just killed, it was not that the three found them, these two animals just presented them.

It is very dangerous for an average person to be here.

Although the three of them are not professional ninjas, relying on each other could counter many threats.

Orochimaru disappeared after teaching the three of them for three days.

A lot of experience, survival skills and Ninjutsu require combat to use them properly.

No matter how much theory is told, it is useless if it cannot be remade into actual combat.

After Orochimaru left, Tatsumi began to lead the team, taking Mikoto and Nawaki to move toward the mission point.

After hunting, Mikoto started a fire.The food should be eaten as soon as possible.

Otherwise, Orochimaru may put some laxatives or something in the food.

Although it is not poisonous, it is disgusting enough.

Think about it, your ass feeling numb, how will you still have the energy to run.

Tatsumi still remembers Nawaki's desperate look, "Don't help me, I can still... pull..."

Tatsumi, sitting in front of the fire, gnawed and looked for it in the forest and saw a wild fruit.

Academy had teached discrimination of wild fruits.

"His~." Dabai suddenly issued a warning sound.

"dong~"

The sound of bells rang.

After a trap is triggered, the bell will make a sound to alert them.

'Is it Orochimaru's sneak attack again?'

Tatsumi and the other two looked at each other.

Then, Tatsumi got up and walked over carefully to investigate.

However, there were no human footprints on the soil but there were marks left by a number of small animals running past.

'Am I being too paranoid after these days?'

After careful observation, Tatsumi sighed in relief.

However, on the soil behind him, a strange bulge was slowly growing.

If this was not training, but assassination training.

As Tatsumi leaned over to observe the footprints left by animals, Orochimaru's pale hands stretched out from the ground and grabbed Tatsumi's legs.

Suddenly, a huge Fireball came out.

"Fire-Style: Great Fireball Jutsu."

A somewhat exaggerated Fireball hooded by Chakra moved towards the ground from Mikoto's mouth.

Tatsumi suddenly became a burst of smoke.

In fact, when the trap was triggered, they already knew that Orochimaru was here and there was no way for ordinary small animals to activate the hidden traps.

The reason Tatsumi leaned over to check, was to give Orochimaru some bait.

Although it was not a brilliant trick, it was better than enough.

Orochimaru was forced to get out of the ground under the heat of the Fireball.

"Boom..."

Tatsumi's right hand squeezed into a fist, the Chakra under his step broke out in an instant. He rushed towards Orochimaru and punched him.

"Chakra Enhanced Strength punch??"

Faced with Tatsumi's offensive, Orochimaru wanted to reach out to block it.

'——It's just that my body suddenly stiffend for a second.'

'....Genjutsu!'

Orochimaru, as Jonin, even though he dispersed the Genjutsu in an instant, he was still stiff for a second.

With Orochimaru's speed, there is not much that Tatsumi can do in one second.

However, he still smashed Orochimaru's chest and under the Chakra Enhanced Strength punch, Orochimaru's body bent into a bow shape.

His body flew out like a cannonball.

"Earth-Style : Earthen Wall."

Nawaki's Earth-Style seal was complete.

Then, a thick earth wall waited for Orochimaru to hit it.

Just when Orochimaru's body was about to hit the earth wall, several snakes grew out of his hands.

"Hidden Shadow Snake Hands."

Those snakes entangled a big tree like a rope and pulled Orochimaru's body to it rather than hitting the Earth wall.

Then, a feather landed in front of Orochimaru.

Orochimaru immediately lost focus. His whole body lost strength.

From prey to being the predator, as long as you use your brain, you can do it easily.

In a ninja's battle, although power is a major factor, strategy is also important.

Now, Tatsumi and the two of them have to do this.

Tatsumi's eyes shone bright and before he could think about it, a handful of kunai appeared in his hand.

Under his control, the kunai, like a bullet, were thrown toward Orochimaru.

But, Orochimaru suddenly escaped from Tatsumi's kunai.

A large number of snakes moved towards Tatsumi, Mikoto and Nawaki.

"Snakes have the ability of thermal sensing, Tatsumi, you seem to have forgotten the most basic thing."

"Not all Genjutsu work on me, kid. Also, I could have easily dispersed yours"
