Chapter 46: Oracle Vs Orochimaru Part 1

. . . .

Orochimaru was about a mile from where he had fought Naruto's team and stopped. He had a bad feeling about continuing. He looked around and sniffed the air. Nothing. Not even the sent of the forest. His eyes widened as he made a quick hand sign. "KAI!" he exclaimed. He released the Genjutsu he had been placed in and looked around. He was still in the same area but with one exception. There was a tall man standing ten feet behind him with his hand raised towards him.

"Shinra Tensei!" the man yelled. Not even a second later Orochimaru felt a pressure force him off his feet and flung him into a tree. Hard. He coughed up some blood and turned to the mystery man. He scowled a the mans mask. "Who are you?" he asked with venom in his voice.

The man just chuckled at him. "I am the Oracle. And I am here to kill you, snake!"

. . . .

Sakura woke up and thought she was in a nightmare. The first thing she saw was an unconscious Sasuke. She rushed to him and checked his vitals. He was alive, but she wondered what in the hell the mark on his neck was. She decided to put that thought aside and brought Sasuke down to the base of the tree. Luckily there was a small cave like cutout in the trees base so she put Sasuke down and started treating his wounds. Once she had him cleaned she leaned back and let out a sigh of relief. Her relief was quickly ended when she heard a voice from the entrance of the tree-cave.

"Figures," a exhausted Naruto said as he limps into the tree. "I do all the work and you can only think about that Teme..." he sighed and he fell against the 'wall' and slid down it till he was sitting against it. "That damn snake really did a number on us..." he mumbled. "I hope the signal reached him..."

. . . .

A mile from Naruto's location and stare down for the ages was taking place.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes at the man who stopped him from leaving the forest. "So you're here to kill me? Do you even know what I am capable of? No no name shinobi will be able to compete with me." He chuckled as he relaxed his guard. "However that jutsu you used was interesting. What was the name of it? Oh, never mind. I'll just do a few experiments on your corpse and find out for my self." He then raised a hand towards Cole. "Sen'eijashu! (Hidden Shadow Snake Hands)" He called as a quintet of snakes erupted from his sleeve.

He smiled as the snakes neared their prey before it could move. Or so he thought. Right as the snakes got within a foot of him they were batted away by a strong gust of wind. Orochimaru raised an eyebrow. "A wind jutsu with no hand signs?" he thought aloud. Cole shook his head no. "No, snake, that was just some simple wind manipulation. Why don't I show you a wind jutsu." he said in a calm tone. As soon as he finished talking he went through hand signs with blinding speed. "Fuuton: Fuujin no Yari! (Wind Release: Wind God's Spear)" he exclaimed as wind spiraled around his right hand, gaining a greenish tint. He brought the now formed spear of wind and threw it as hard as he could towards the Snake Sannin. Orochimaru scoffed and simply side stepped the throw.

Only to receive a deep gash across his arm. "Ahhg!" he yelled as he clutched his arm. His eyes widened in fury as he looked back at Cole. "The hell! I dodged that pitiful jutsu!" he yelled in absolute fury. Cole chuckled at the snakes anger. "That jutsu not only forms a spear of wind, it causes the air around the spear to act as a extended blade. Making it have more range then what you can actually see." he said in dry tone. "But enough talk you damn snake. You will pay for your crimes on humanity, right here, right now!" he roared as he charged Orochimaru, Tekki no Hocho in hand. Orochimaru pulled the Kusanagi sword from his mouth to counter Coles strikes.

After a brief exchange of blows. Orochimaru backs off, knowing that whatever that sword was Cole was using, was heavy as hell and wouldn't be cut by the Kusanagi sword. Orochimaru scowled at the man before doing his own hand signs. "Mandara no Jin! (Formation of Ten Thousand Snakes)" he said as snakes began to spew from his mouth.

Cole cringed at the disgusting jutsu before weaving hand signs with blinding speed. "Katon: Goka Mekkyaku! (Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation)" Cole roared. On the final hand sign he took in a deep breath and released a massive wave of fire. The fire burnt away all of the snakes...as well as a good portion of trees.

Orochimaru was forced to shed his skin to avoid the attack. Once he landed away from the flames he attacked Cole once more with Kusanagi. Cole hand just ended the jutsu when Orochimaru was a foot away. Within millimeters of him being stabbed he sent Orochimaru away with a wordless Shinra Tensei. Orochimaru landed on his feet and took in a deep breath. "Fuuton: Daitoppa! (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)" he said as he let loose a torrent of powerful wind.

Cole stabbed his cleaver into the ground to brace himself from the winds and rode them out. Once done he looked to where Orochimaru was and noticed he was gone.

Cole searched the area with his Rinnegan. His eyes widened as he jumped into the air to avoid a snake breaking through the ground. He brought up his sword and cut the snake in two with a single clean cut. Once he landed he continued to look for the Sannin. He was forced to jump again as Orochimaru came out of the ground swinging the Kusanagi blade where his neck once was. Cole got his distance and stared the Snake Sannin down.

Orochimaru chuckled. "My, my. How has the old man hidden someone like you from me? You will make an excellent test subject." he said as a thought occurred. "Hmmm, you know. Where is little Anko-chan. I'd have thought she would have been here by now. I have thrown around a lot of my chakra for her to notice." said in contemplation.

Cole's grip on Tekki no Hocho tightened as he snarled at the Sannin. "If you go anywhere near my wife, snake, I will gut you so slowly you will be for death before a minute has passed!" he roared at the androgynous man. Orochimaru raised an eyebrow. "A girl like Anko settled down? Wait...that's right, she's in the Uzumaki clan now. So you must be the clan head, Uzumaki Seinaru. Kukukuku, why don't you take off your mask so I can see the face of the man I am about to kill." he said as he flicked his tongue out like the snake he was. Cole growled at the man and for his own stupidity of letting his emotions get to him.

"Fine then, but it is you who will die today." he said as he removed his mask. Orochimaru's eyes widened when he looked at Cole's face. "R-Rinnegan! H-How!" he stammered.

Cole raised a hand to him. "You aren't worthy of knowing. Bansho Tennin!" he roared. Orochimaru was instantly ripped from his position and pulled towards Cole. He brought his cleaver up and cut clean through Orochimaru's midsection. The now bisected Orochimaru was forced to shed his skin for a second time, leaving him dangerously low on chakra.

He fell to one knee and panted heavily as he looked at Cole. "I will have those eyes of yours Uzumaki. I will kill little Anko-chan in the most brutal way possible and I will make that brat of yours watch. Then he too will die. I will kill you and all those you love...one day." he snarled and he sunk into the ground, his chakra signature disappearing sort after.

Cole let of a roar of rage, which flattened the surrounding trees. "Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!" he roared over and over again. He let out a frustrated wail. He was about to charge off when he was stopped by three Konoha shinobi.

"Seinaru-sama! What has happened here!?" Maito Guy said as he Kakashi and Hayate landed in the new clearing. Cole sighed. "It was Orochimaru. The snake was here and attacked Team 7. I drove him off but the teams in bad shape. Hes escaped. We need to go after him as soon as possible." Cole said as he walked past the three.

"I'll go report to the Hokage!" Kakashi said as he Shunshined away. Cole grumbled as he started heading towards home. "Damn Snake...I will not let him have his way!"

. . . .

(A/N): AANND CUT!

Ok, this will not be the last of the Cole v Orochimaru action. I plan on having them fight in the invasion as well.

However I am 50/50 on if I will have him be killed by Cole. I dunno, I feel like he would be dying too early and a lot of plot points would be avoided.

:/

Anyway, as for Sasuke's curse mark,

some of you asked if there was a way to remove it. There is, but you're gonna have to wait for later to find out how it's going to be done ;)

anyway, there will be two chapters today! HYPE X10!

Remember to REVIEW! And as always, I'll see ya next time!
