*poof*
Hibachi reappeared once again near Sakura and the others.
"What the hell, Hibachi? What change is that? How can it be so fast?" Sakura looked at Hibachi in disbelief.
What Hibachi has just displayed in several confrontations against the Kusagakure Genin (Orochimaru) in front of them is completely beyond their expectations.
However, Hibachi's face only turned awkward when he heard this question because he did not intend to answer.
- A few days ago, during a special training with Sanada -
BAMMMM!!!
Hibachi was thrown a few meters away when Sanada's kick hit his stomach.
"Hibachi is too slow, if this is really a battle, you would have died by now." Sanada said before he flashed once again to Hibachi's side.
It's been a few days, and all this time all Hibachi has done in special training is learn how to avoid.
Sanada realized that expecting them to learn something useful in one week was almost impossible. So rather than teaching them some flashy jutsu, he would rather increase Hibachi's chances of survival.
Sanada appears right behind Hibachi, and his fist is ready to hit Hibachi's head.
But at this moment, Hibachi's figure suddenly turned into a wooden rod as he reappeared a few meters away from Sanada.
"Finally... Success..."
Hibachi does not believe. This was the first time he had managed to evade Sensei's attack using the Jutsu of Substitution.
Sanada looked at this scene and his mouth slightly curved. But soon, the smile disappeared as he knew that this was only the first step.
"That's great! But this time, I'll be a little more serious!" Sanada said before he blinked once more, this time at a speed that was incomparable to before.
"Wait wait!!!!!"
Hibachi wailed but to no avail.
THE BAMMM!!!!!
In the end, Hibachi's body was full of bruises from Sanada's punch, but all of the exercises were not in vain as Hibachi could now avoid at least 10% of Sanada's attacks.
back to the present -
"Take it because of my special training with Sanada-Sensei...."
Hearing Hibachi say that it was all thanks to Sanada, Sakura did not ask anymore.
Everything is possible if it is Sanada-Sensei, he thought.
However, unbeknownst to him, Ami was currently staring at Hibachi with pity.
"Well, I think we better stop talking and focus on dealing with this weird guy first.." Hibachi turned his gaze back to Orochimaru.
"Hahahahaha, you really got me there, son. Now I'm really curious. Who taught you that style of fighting?" Orochimaru said as he licked his lips.
Although he asked that question, Orochimaru had no intention of playing around anymore. It has been too long since he was detained by this little Genin and no one knows when Konoha reinforcements will come.
Orochimaru's bloodlust surged, giving Genin a very bad feeling.
Among Genin, Sasuke was the one who suffered the most from bloodlust. He was indeed a Genius with SSS potential, but the current Sasuke was still a brat with shallow battle experience.
"Ami, if I'm not mistaken, Sanada-Sensei should have taught you how to set up a formation using an explosion talisman, right?"
"Eh..?"
"Don't uh me. I have a plan, but I need your help. Based on my understanding of Sanada-Sensei, he should at least teach you how to set up an explosion formation. I need to know where the nearest formation is. ."
Ami soon realized what Hibachi meant by this. He gave the secret code that Sanada had taught him to tell Hibachi the coordinates of his explosion formation.
"177013."
"Understand me, thank you, Ami!"
When Hibachi flashed once more, he reappeared next to Orochimaru. He might not be as strong as Sakura or Sasuke, but Hibachi believed in this kind of battle. He had a higher chance of survival than them.
Hibachi and Orochimaru continued to engage with each other as Hibachi continued to spam the Jutsu Turnover (Body Replacement Technique) until Hibachi finally brought Orochimaru to the site of the explosion formation.
"So, are we going to stop playing around now? Do you think I won't notice you taking me to this place?"
Orochimaru simply stopped and smiled as he waited for Hibachi's reaction. Hibachi basically meant nothing to him.
Hibachi had no choice but to continue this. Their survival would depend on this and he could only hope that his plan worked.
Ignoring Orochimaru's grin, he rushed towards her.
"Stupid, do you think I'll fall for it again?"
Orochimaru waved his hand nonchalantly as he thought Hibachi would use another Jutsu of Substitution to dodge his attack.
But this time, Hibachi really surprised him.
He no longer dodged Orochimaru's attack and was hit by Orochimaru's slap.
BAM!!!
Hibachi was thrown several meters away, but there was a grin on his face when his plan succeeded.
"Ami, now!"
Hibachi shouted and Ami immediately responded with a seal to make an explosion.
"Is this your plan? Do you think I'm so weak that I can't escape from this?"
Seeing this, Orochimaru felt disappointed. It seems a civilian remains a civilian.
But just as he was about to make the seal activate his jutsu, Orochimaru suddenly felt his body slightly paralyzed.
'What a fuck!'
Orochimaru's face was filled with shock as his gaze moved towards Hibachi who was lying down after being hit by his attack.
"Haha, surprised huh? It seems like this little guy's poison is as good as what Sanada-Sensei said" Hibachi said.
On his shoulder was a small blue-ringed octopus that was praised as having one of the most potent poisons in the world. During a few days of special training, Sanada had to rack his brain to find the best attack method for Hibachi and the result was to make this little fellow a Hibachi summoning beast.
Just for this little guy, Sanada had to go deep into the ocean because that was the only place where they lived. But looking at the arrogant expression on Hibachi's face now, it seemed like all of Sanada's efforts were not in vain.
"Now, feel the terror of the explosion."
"Katoo!!!"
