Orochimaru exhaled heavily and discreetly spat out a few mouthfuls of chewed food, skillfully concealed from the two ANBU ninjas guarding Tsunade. He didn't want to draw attention to his little indulgence.

He engaged in fierce battles not only to refine his combat skills and augment his strength, but also to catch the attention of the Senju clan, specifically the second-generation Hokage, Tobirama.

The second generation was the pioneer of forbidden jutsu in Naruto world. The Fourth Hokage's signature techniques, like the Flying Thunder God Technique and the Reanimation Jutsu used by Orochimaru in the future Great Ninja War, were all first developed by the second generation. Even Naruto's Shadow Clone Technique and Orochimaru's strategic-level Fuinjutsu, the Dark Sealing Method, all originated from this exceptionally talented individual, whose abilities were nothing short of monstrous.

As Orochimaru's successor, Orochimaru had his own mission to master powerful ninjutsu and unravel the mysteries of jutsu. But fundamentally, it was his desire and ambition to wield formidable power!

As a prodigious character, the second generation had to meet the same fate as Hashirama Senju, passing away within three years. At present, Orochimaru was still relatively weak, unable to alter major events for the time being, and he didn't want to do so either.

If the second generation didn't die, how could his teacher Sarutobi Hiruzen ascend to the Hokage position so swiftly? As a disciple and member of the Sannin, even with his formidable strength, how could he have earned the title of "Sannin" and the authority to command the war and lead the ninja forces in the Second and Third Great Ninja Wars?!

The second generation had to die! Orochimaru merely aimed to extract as many benefits as he could before that happened, garnering support for himself from the Senju clan.

"Come on, boy! Still have some fight left in you?" The Kaguya ninja across from Orochimaru had activated the Dance of Camellia Dance, his body covered in bones. In this state, he possessed virtually no weak points, even the wounds on his waist and abdomen were concealed beneath a layer of pale bone that temporarily halted the bleeding.

However, the Kaguya ninja couldn't continue much longer. This state consumed a significant amount of his chakra, and the poisoning and blood loss were taking a toll on his condition. Moreover, there were a few smaller fry eyeing him.

"Suffer to death! Dance of the Wisteria Camellia!" The Kaguya ninja roared, displaying his incredible physical prowess as he spun toward Orochimaru in a mesmerizing posture. The bone knives on his body and the spine in his hand intertwined, creating a dense web of attacks resembling a deadly whirlwind that effortlessly tore through anything in its path.

"Summonging Technique!" Orochimaru gritted his teeth, summoning a significant amount of chakra to form the necessary hand seals. His chakra reserves were now less than a third, but facing such a monstrous opponent directly, he had no choice but to take the risk.

Although Orochimaru had undergone body modifications for some time, it was impossible for him to emerge unscathed from a heap of minced flesh at this moment.

"Bang!" As the smoke cleared, Orochimaru's largest summon, a formidable ninja beast, appeared alongside a towering twenty-meter snake!

The scales on this snake's body were as large and thick as a child's palm. Its mighty form traced an elegant S-shaped path on the ground. Its fierce snake eyes fixed upon the minuscule "hedgehog" before it, its foul mouth gaping wide to deliver a crushing bite!
