Naruto: The Wind Calamity

Chapter 612: How did Fujin defeat Jiraiya?

Fujin's and Orochimaru's swords clashed hundreds of times within the blink of an eye. Neither of them could get an advantage over the other and the two rank S ninjas pulled back.

Fujin said, "That isn't common knowledge, which means that you should be in Akatsuki as well. Sigh, I didn't expect that one of the Legendary Sannins had fallen to the level of becoming a mercenary. What a shame! Did they order you like an underling to come here and attack Genins as well?"

Pity could be seen on Fujin's face as he spoke. However, Orochimaru completely ignored Fujin's taunt. He thought, 'From the information Akatsuki collected, he prefers to fight in complete silence without engaging in any talks, killing his enemies ruthlessly. However, when he meets someone who he can't defeat easily, he talks with the sole purpose of angering his opponent, hoping that they give him an opening.'

Orochimaru had talked with Kisame to ask for information about Fujin where he learnt that Fujin had taunted them to create a small opening which he managed to exploit successfully. As a result, he wasn't bothered by his words.

Besides, it wasn't like Fujin was the only one who could play that game. Orochimaru replied almost immediately after Fujin taunted him, "You shouldn't be overconfident just because you killed Juzo. This world is vast with too many hidden experts. If you act arrogantly, it's just a matter of time before you die."

Fujin chuckled and teased, "Oh, and I suppose you consider yourself a hidden expert as well? Haha. Let me guess, you are following one such hidden expert now, hahaha!"

Ignoring his taunts again, Orochimaru laughed as well and said, "Don't worry. I'm just advising you so that you won't be this reckless in your next life."

'Hidden Shadow Snake Hands jutsu'

Orochimaru flung his left arm towards Fujin. Instantly, 8 snakes appeared and moved towards Fujin at an incredible speed. They almost reached him when Fujin just casually swung his sword. Sharp winds flew and dismembered every single snake.

'Ten Thousand Snake Wave jutsu'

He opened his mouth and countless snakes crawled out of Orochimaru's mouth, forming a wave. Fujin looked indifferently at the incoming snake wave and muttered disdainfully while building up his chakra, "A hidden expert? What's so special about being a Sannin? I defeated that pervert not too long ago!"

'Vacuum Serial Waves'

A vacuum core with a hundred and forty-four vacuum cores formed in Fujin's mouth as he shot out the jutsu.

Orochimaru's eyes widened as he was startled for the first time! He immediately flickered away! The thousands of snakes he had summoned were all blown back and cut into several pieces! Not a single one survived!

However, that wasn't what startled Orochimaru. He thought, 'He defeated Jiraiya? Impossible! Even though he fools around, he shouldn't have fallen so far that this brat can defeat him!'

Orochimaru quickly dodged again as a few Vacuum Bullets passed through where he was standing at while thinking, 'Did he really defeat Jiraiya or did he just say it to disturb me? That said, his mastery over the Wind is very good. Even Danzo's Wind Vacuum Technique isn't this good. I'll need to disrupt him!'

Orochimaru used Hidden Shadow Snake Hand jutsu once again to attack Fujin, who changed his strategy and flickered a few times to reduce the distance between them. Wind chakra flowed along his sword as he swung it at Orochimaru from a dozen meters away!

Once again, Orochimaru flickered away as a wind slash accompanied by sharp winds was launched from Fujin's blade. Several more trees were cut down but Orochimaru wasn't hurt. Fujin gave chase but he sensed Orochimaru building up a massive amount of chakra.

'Water Release: Exploding Water Shock Wave jutsu!'

While dodging Fujin's attacks, Orochimaru spat out a large amount of water! The water formed large waves and came crashing down towards Fujin, who retreated while building up his chakra as well and using the Infinite Breakthrough jutsu to stop the water's momentum.

However, Fujin was puzzled. He wondered, 'What is this bastard up to? Why is he running away and why did he use a Water jutsu against me? From the way he is fighting, he should already have a lot of information about me.

So, he should know that this technique is useless against me. If anything, it'll weaken his Fire jutsus later on… Did he do it just to create some distance?'

Suddenly, Fujin's eyes widened and he flickered away. Even though his attack had stopped the water and sent most of it backwards, some amount of water still flowed towards him. He had ignored it as it wasn't harmful to him in any way.

However, several thousand needles formed in water and were launched at Fujin! Orochimaru had attacked Fujin by using the Water Release: The Thousand Stinging Needles of Death jutsu by using the water of his previous jutsu to attack Fujin.

Fujin flickered a few times to avoid the attacks while flowing Wind chakra into his sword once again and swinging it to block the last incoming rain of needles!

However, he suddenly turned around as he sensed that Orochimaru had flickered behind him. A grin could be seen on Orochimaru's face as he built a massive amount of chakra up once again. He shouted, "Let me see you survive this attack!"

'Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame jutsu!'

Orochimaru converted a massive amount of chakra into fire and exhaled it at Fujin. A sea of flames rushed towards Fujin! However, instead of fear, confusion could be seen on Fujin's face.

After all, Fujin had blown back a strong Fire jutsu not too long ago. Even though Wind was weak against Fire, that logic no longer held true against a ninja of Fujin's calibre! Someone at Orochimaru's level should know that clearly especially after Fujin had already demonstrated it.

So, it didn't make sense for Orochimaru to try and exploit this non-existent weakness. Fujin built up his chakra again while wondering, 'What is he up to? Does he plan to use the flames as a cover to sneak attack me? But he should know that won't work either. I can't make sense of his strategy… '

Before the Fire jutsu could reach him, he launched a supercharged Infinite Breakthrough jutsu at the incoming flames to blow away the flames once again!

The sharp and strong winds that Fujin exhaled clashed with the sea of flames Orochimaru exhaled. Both of them were continuously exhaling their jutsus, powering them up continuously.

Fujin expected that his winds would blow away the flames once again. However, his eyes widened as the flames overpowered the winds and rushed into it instead of dispersing! To make matters worse, the winds strengthened the flames, nearly doubling the power of Orochimaru's jutsu!

As he sensed the flames more clearly, Fujin's eyes widened even more as he realized the reason why his jutsu was being overpowered!

He immediately flickered away while cursing, 'Shit! This isn't a simple fire jutsu! That bastard has mixed a huge amount of Yang chakra into it! This attack is actually closer to a Kekkei Genkai than a normal Fire jutsu. No wonder it overpowered my jutsu so easily…'

Fujin landed on a branch as he looked at the flames that had spread for hundreds of meters, starting a massive forest fire. However, his eyes widened in shock once again! As soon as he stepped on the branch, Orochimaru appeared from within the branch and extended his neck towards Fujin at a rapid speed.

Fujin instinctively swung his sword behind him, but Orochimaru hit his wrist, forcing Fujin to lose his grip and losing his sword. In the blink of an eye, Orochimaru coiled around Fujin without giving him any time to react!

Fujin immediately used Iron Skin jutsu to protect himself while analyzing how exactly he fell into a trap. Orochimaru tried biting Fujin's neck to place a curse seal on him as well but was stopped due to the Iron Skin jutsu. Orochimaru's teeth failed to break his skin as Fujin had used even more chakra to protect his neck.

Fujin's eyes widened as he finally realized the reason behind those weird moves Orochimaru made. He muttered, "Incredible. So this was the ambush you prepared for me?"

Fear and shock could be seen on Fujin's face and heard in his voice as he turned his head to see Orochimaru's face. An evil grin could be seen on Ororchimaru's face as he coiled tighter around Fujin to break his jutsu.

He said, "This was a child's play. How did you defeat Jiraiya if you couldn't handle such a simple tactic?"

With fear in his voice, Fujin replied, "It was simple… I lied!"

Orochimaru, who was looking forward to playing with Fujin before finally killing him, was startled. He never expected such an answer! He suddenly felt something amiss…

At the next moment…

BOOM!!!!!!

Before Orochimaru could figure out what was wrong, Fujin exploded!
