Chapter 152 Research
Boruto followed the directions given to him by Mr. Sasuke before he left, and finally arrived at the exact location of Orochimaru and Sasuke's current base.
Because Mr. Sasuke once mentioned that he and Orochimaru had reached some kind of agreement that he could seek Orochimaru's support if he needed help.
Now is the perfect time to let Orochimaru, who is keen on conducting all sorts of strange research, examine these samples.
Just then, Boruto saw Sasuke training in a wasteland in front of Orochimaru's base. The ninjutsu he was using was incredibly powerful, enough to shatter a rock half a person's height in front of him.
Sasuke at this time was significantly different from before. He was wearing a pure white kimono with dark blue pants, and the back of the kimono was decorated with a miniature version of the Uchiha clan crest.
Sasuke's forearms were covered by a dark gray arm guard that extended to his palms, and a purple rope belt was tied around his waist. He also held a long sword in both hands.
At this moment, Sasuke, who was training, also noticed Boruto's figure not far away. His expression froze slightly, but then he regained his usual indifference, brandished the Kusanagi sword in his hand, drew a few gorgeous sword flowers, and then put the sword back into the rope belt at his waist.
Sasuke stared sharply at Boruto, who had approached, and said in an unusually cold tone, "It's been a long time, Boruto. I really didn't expect you to follow my trail and find this place."
Boruto smiled awkwardly at Sasuke's cold words: "Uh... it has indeed been a while, but sorry Sasuke, I'm not here to see you this time, I'm here to see Orochimaru..."
Upon hearing Boruto's words, Sasuke's cold expression immediately froze, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. Orochimaru! It's Orochimaru again! The man who utterly defeated me a few months ago also came looking for Orochimaru, and now it's the same situation again.
Sasuke was so angry that he drew the Kusanagi sword from his waist again, looked directly at Boruto, and challenged him to a duel.
"Boruto! My strength is not what it used to be, and this time I will never lose to you again!"
Sasuke began to recall that he had never beaten Boruto since Boruto joined Team 7, and the same was true in their last battle before leaving Konoha.
Now, he has undergone countless real combat training with Orochimaru, and this real combat experience is far superior to the childish tasks he had in Konoha.
If he can't even overcome Boruto now, how will he challenge that man in the future!
Boruto did not shy away from Sasuke's challenge; he was equally curious and wanted to know how his current strength compared to Sasuke's.
Boruto nodded and accepted Sasuke's challenge.
Sasuke gripped the Kusanagi sword tightly, and the black lines on his face began to spread until they covered his entire body, revealing the activation of Cursed Seal One. At the same time, the Sharingan in his eyes began to rotate.
At this moment, Orochimaru, who was not far away, noticed the commotion. He walked over and looked at the standoff between Sasuke and Boruto with an expression of a bystander watching a show.
Sasuke didn't say anything more. He simply stretched out his hand and used the Summoning Jutsu: Hidden Shadow Snake Hands to summon several snakes to attack Boruto, in order to test Boruto's current strength.
"Water Release: Water Slash!" Boruto also began to mobilize his chakra, gathering it at his throat, and then spat out a thin, sharp jet of water, directly severing the python that was charging towards him.
After witnessing Boruto's powerful Water Release technique, Sasuke quickly leaped onto a boulder to dodge the attack. The moment Boruto's Water Release touched the boulder, the boulder was sliced apart by the sharp water flow.
Sasuke leaped into the air the instant the boulder shattered, then landed. He said to Boruto expressionlessly, "Boruto, when I left the village, I had fully mastered the Purple Lightning you taught me, and I even developed new ninjutsu based on it."
Boruto wasn't surprised: "Is that so? Then I'll have to see for myself."
Sasuke waved his hand at Boruto and shouted, "Purple Lightning Thousand Needles!" With his movement, purple electricity shot out, transforming into countless sharp needles that flew densely towards Boruto, forming a fierce offensive.
Faced with this barrage of attacks, Boruto quickly threw out a shuriken, his hands rapidly forming hand seals as he shouted, "Shuriken: Shadow Clone Technique!"
As Boruto moved, the shuriken quickly split into numerous shadow clones of shuriken, which collided with the Senbon released by Sasuke in mid-air, canceling each other out.
As the shadow clones of the sword disappeared, bursts of smoke erupted, spreading and obscuring the view.
As the smoke gradually dissipated, the spot where Boruto had been standing was now empty; his figure had vanished.
Using the Flying Thunder God seal on the shuriken that fell at Sasuke's feet, Boruto instantly teleported in front of Sasuke.
Boruto extended his finger in a sword-like gesture, pointing it at Sasuke's forehead, and smiled: "It's over, Sasuke."
Sasuke remained calm in the face of Boruto's words: "Is that so? Boruto, don't forget, I'm from the Uchiha clan!"
"You've been too careless, Boruto!" Sasuke then sneered, his Sharingan eyes spinning as he unleashed the Illusionary Shackles Technique on Boruto, attempting to pull him into a genjutsu trap to turn the tide.
However, just moments later, Sasuke was astonished to find that Boruto was completely unaffected by his Sharingan technique. He muttered incredulously, "How is this possible! My Sharingan technique has failed!"
After a brief moment of shock, Sasuke reacted and retreated rapidly, immediately widening the distance between himself and Boruto. He gritted his teeth, clearly realizing that he had underestimated Boruto's strength.
Sasuke further strengthened his cursed seal state, entering a deeper level of cursed seal state. A cross-shaped pattern appeared in the center of his face, and his chakra increased dramatically.
Immediately afterwards, Sasuke leaped into the air, flapping his "wings" and flying straight into the sky.
When Orochimaru witnessed Sasuke transform from Cursed Seal One to Cursed Seal Two, a smile crept across his face: "It seems Sasuke is getting serious. I wonder if Boruto can maintain the same composure." Orochimaru noticed that Boruto hadn't been using his full strength from beginning to end.
