Chapter 119: It Was Yakushi-senpai Who Broke the Rules First - The White Eyed Princess of Konoha

### Chapter 119: It Was Yakushi-senpai Who Broke the Rules First "Orochimaru! Your gaze is as fierce as ever!" Jiraiya’s eyes were solemn as he said gravely, "And your intentions… are just as dangerous as they were in the past!" "Hinata, you handle the guy with the glasses! I’ll take on Orochimaru myself!" "Alright!" Hinata nodded repeatedly, agreeing eagerly. Then she looked at Kabuto Yakushi playfully and suggested, "Yakushi-senpai, why don't we just sit back and watch the show? Let them fight it out." "If Orochimaru gets killed, I’ll let you go. If the Perverted Sage dies, you let me go... how about that?" Kabuto tilted his head slightly, smiling faintly. "Good idea. The outcome between us doesn’t really matter anyway. As long as we don't get in their way, we’ll be fine." Hinata gave Kabuto a thumbs up and nodded enthusiastically. "Exactly! That’s the point!" After speaking, Hinata took out a bag of honeyed fruits from her backpack and offered it to Kabuto. "Yakushi-senpai, would you like some?" Kabuto chuckled lightly, "No, I’m good!" Jiraiya and Orochimaru exchanged an awkward glance, suddenly feeling less inclined to battle. Why were they, the legendary Sannin, about to fight to the death while these kids sat on the sidelines, spectating? Hinata looked at Jiraiya, then at Orochimaru, and seeing that they hadn’t made a move yet, she complained, "Aren’t you two going to fight? Come on! Perverted Sage, hit him! Did either of you consider the audience's feelings?" "Oh! By the way, do you need a more spacious area to fight?" Jiraiya's face turned ugly as if he had swallowed something unpleasant. Looking at Orochimaru, he said, "This place really isn’t suitable for a fight." Orochimaru's expression was just as sour as Jiraiya’s as he nodded and then swiftly dashed toward the outskirts. Hinata, Jiraiya, and Kabuto quickly followed. Being ninjas, their speed was incredible. In no time, the four of them reached a barren field five miles outside of Tonesaka Street. Hinata stood beside Jiraiya, facing Orochimaru and Kabuto. Orochimaru’s eyes were dark as he looked at Hinata and said to Kabuto, "Even if we're just watching, we should still be of some use." Kabuto nodded slightly, then produced a kunai to slice open his finger. Smearing the blood on Orochimaru’s arm, he prepared for the summoning. Jiraiya bit his finger as well, quickly forming hand seals. "Summoning Jutsu!" Manda and Gamakichi appeared simultaneously in the arena. "Hey! Isn’t this Manda? It's been a while. And Orochimaru..." Gamakichi said with a bit of a teasing tone. Hinata too was curiously observing the giant toad beneath her feet. Although she had seen him many times in the manga, this was her first time encountering the real Gamakichi. "So this is the great toad of Mount Myoboku!" Compared to the obedient Gamakichi, Manda was much more domineering. "Orochimaru, stop dumping these messes on me, or I’ll eat you!" Hinata watched Gamakichi intently, suddenly feeling a bit hungry... She abruptly turned to Jiraiya, cheering him on. "Perverted Sage, you have to do your best! You must take down that big snake! Tonight we’ll have grilled snake meat, and the snake gall can be used to make medicinal wine for my dad." Gamakichi rolled his eyes upwards, snorting lightly, "Though I’m not too thrilled about having a kid standing on my head, well said. I’ve been wanting a snakeskin wallet myself!" Hinata wondered aloud, "Hey, giant toad, do you guys use money in Mount Myoboku?" Gamakichi was speechless. Jiraiya frowned and chided, "Don’t just think about food; learn a bit about summoning beasts too! If they get too injured, they can return to their summon realm!" "Okay, okay!" Hinata’s excitement only grew. "Yeah, there are plenty of snakes in Ryuchi Cave!" Honestly, using Orochimaru to make medicinal wine was a bit nauseating, but using the snakes from Ryuchi Cave? No problem at all. Manda glared at Hinata with a fierce look. "You annoying brat, I’m gonna kill you!" With that, Manda lunged at Gamakichi with astonishing speed for his size. Gamakichi leaped into the air, slashing down at Manda. Manda opened his massive jaws and bit into Gamakichi’s blade, whipping his tail towards the toad. Gamakichi, realizing the futility, dropped the sword and retreated. Jiraiya shouted, "Gamakichi, oil!" "Got it!" Hinata anchored herself to Gamakichi with chakra at her feet, eagerly watching the clash between the summoned beasts. The spectacle was more thrilling than a 3D movie. As Gamakichi spat oil, Jiraiya used his Fire Style: Flame Bullet, creating an explosive reaction that quickly formed a sea of flames. "Fire Style: Toad Oil Flame Bullet!" Hinata yelled in excitement as she watched. Truthfully, Jiraiya’s Toad Oil Flame Bullet was just as spectacular as Uchiha Madara’s majestic fire annihilation technique. The only difference was one relied on natural fire jutsu, while the other required oil assistance. Activating her Byakugan, Hinata shouted, "The snake skin is down there!" With Gamakichi landing on the ground, it shook violently as something emerged from below. Gamakichi grabbed it instantly, revealing it to be Manda’s tail! "Hinata!" Jiraiya sensed the danger immediately. When it came to non-hand-seal long-range ninjutsu, no one was faster than the Hyuga’s Mountain Crusher. Hinata, already observing the battle with her Byakugan, quickly condensed chakra in her fists. Though rushed, she hadn’t had time to blend in natural energy. Manda’s head burst out of the ground behind Gamakichi, trying to bite down. Hinata launched her fists simultaneously. Five lines of chakra merged into one, shot through Manda’s mouth, and out the back of his head. In pain, Manda’s head jerked involuntarily. Seizing the moment, Gamakichi leapt away from him. As he jumped back, Gamakichi puffed up his cheeks and spat out a water ball. "Water Style: Water Bullet" Manda, unable to react in time, was struck by the Water Bullet and sent flying. Before he could hit the ground, Manda vanished in a puff of smoke, retreating back to Ryuchi Cave. Manda had no intention of fighting to the death for Orochimaru. Landing back on the ground, Orochimaru’s expression turned grim, surprised at how quickly Manda had been defeated. His mouth opened wide, and his tongue extended unnaturally, stretching toward Hinata with astonishing speed. "Hey! We agreed that Yakushi-senpai and I wouldn’t fight!" Orochimaru’s tongue was truly revolting, and now it was reaching for her... Hinata had no intention of letting it touch her. She quickly hid behind Jiraiya, peeking her head out to protest loudly, "Uncle Snake! We agreed that I wouldn't get involved. It was Yakushi-senpai who broke the rules first by using the summoning jutsu for you." "You shouldn’t target me! Go after the Perverted Sage—he has nothing to do with me."
