Chapter 177:

Orochimaru hummed coldly with pride: "Although we were badly injured, but Suna got it worse. Chiyo's younger brother Ebizo was almost killed by us and Chiyo herself was also badly injured. While Suna's elite troops also suffered heavy casualties."

Jiraiya also grinned and nodded, agreeing with Orochimaru's words.

Akira nodded secretly, as expected of the Sannin. Suna elite forces was forced to retreat as even they have to careful in dealing with Orochimaru and Jiraiya teamed up, coupled with Konoha's elite ninja.

Of course, from the current point of view, both Konoha and Suna were tied.

As Orochimaru and Jiraiya were seriously injured, Tsunade immediately used a chakra knife and medical ninjutsu to treat the wounds on both of them. Orochimaru and Jiraiya panted heavily, while regaining their strength.

"You guys are too bold, risking your own life so desperately." Tsunade shook her head: " What do I do with you guys? I need to treat both of you knuckle heads everytime after you get hurt. At least you guys prevented Suna for the time being."

Orochimaru smiled and his eyes turned to Akira. In fact, half of the reason why he was so desperate was because of Akira. Orochimaru had witnessed Akira use the powerful Susanol through the white snake and it had hurt his pride as a genius. This triggered his fighting spirit and stimulated his potential, which is why he fought so desperately against Suna to prove hiss strength.

While the culprit himself, Akira did not know that he was the one who triggered Orochimaru fighting spirit and cause him to fight desperately. Akira shrugged and looked at Nara Shikkaku and Minato. Seeing the two boy with various wound on their bodg, Akira said: "You actually got all wounded. Especially you Minato, don't you flying raining, you can escape unscathed easily right?"

Akira shook his head and gave two healing chakra pills to them.

Minato and Shikkaku took the healing chakra pills with gratitude, While Jiraiya smiled and explained, "This time thanks to Shikkaku's tactics and Minato's support, They have been a really great help, otherwise we will not have it worse."

Orochimaru also nodded slightly: "Thanks to Minato's flying raijin, otherwise we would have a harder time as Suna seems to be alert and had brought a lot of elite troops in advance."

"It seems like Minato has made great progress." Akira smiled slightly and patted Minato on the shoulder. Who would have thought that Akira's causal pat, had actually touch Minato wound. Minato gritted his teeth in pain and looked at Akira with bitter resentment, with eyes that scream to Akira to let go.

Minato then looked at Akira p and curiously asked: "Akira, what's the situation on your side?" Due to Akira's pressure, Minato has made considerable progress. Now he is a peak level jonin, plus the flying raijin is enough for Minato to handle quasi kage level ninja. Which is why Minato who is competitive want to compare with Akira, to see how Akira is doing.

Akira smiled and was about to speak, but Tsunade next to him said with a proud face: "Akira alone confronted the Iwa'a four-tailed man jinchuriki Roshi and forced him back with fright. Sadly you guys couldn't see the funny scene of Iwa elites fleeing with their tails between legs..."

"What?" A shocked flashed in Minato's eyes and he was startled.

Nara Shikkaku's eyes widened in astonishment.

Whereas Orochimaru had already known the fact, but he still couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Jiraiya was also stunned: "Four-tailed jinchuriki was scared off by you?" Jiraiya really marveled at this point. You must know real powerhouse will not run away at will, unless there is a great difference in strength.

Hearing Tsunade's tone, the four-tailed jinchuriki not only simply retreat, but it's like they were frightened and run away...

Hearing this, Minato sighed slightly and said with emotion: " Sure enough, I'm not as good as Akira..." Minato shook his head, not knowing how to evaluate Akira anymore.

Shikkaku next to him smiled and said: "Akira is simply a monster, otherwise he would not be called the 'crescent eye reaper'."

Uchiha Akira, the crescent eye reaper!

It can be said that the alias fits Akira very well.

Minato nodded: "Akira is indeed a monster, but I thought I had gradually narrowed the gap with him, but instead the gap was widen."

Orochimaru and Jiraiya also looked at Akira with somewhat complicated gazes. They witnessed Akira's rise to fame and even they could not figure out Akira current strength. Both of them were thinking if they were to fight against Akira, how are their chances in winning against him. The two turned solemn and felt the overwhelmed.

Although they believe that their current strength is not inferior to Akira, but Akira has only risen in the past few years and his speed of growth has made Jiraiya and Orochimaru embarrassed of theirs.

If he is allowed to continue growing this rapidly, then even yhe Sannin won't be a match against Akira!

"What a monstrous genius." Jiraiya lips also twitched and said with emotion.

Tsunade chuckled, she was both happy and proud. She stretched out her little snow-white hand in front of Jiraiya and threatened "Hurry up, give us the three million ryo!"

Tsunade have been excited about the bet and when this was mentioned, Orochimaru and Jiraiya face turn bitter. Three million is not a small number and it is basically equivalent to all their income in the past few years.

Tsunade won three million ryo and she was in a good mood. She has she finally walked out of the shadow of the death of Nawaki and restored some of her old cheerfulness.

Soon, news came out that Akira, Orochimaru and Jiraiya repelled Iwa and Suna respectively. As a result Akira became even more famous.

Akira's opponent this time was the fearsome four-tailed jinchuriki!

The battlefield in the country of rain was amazed by the news that Akira had scared the four-tailed jinchuriki Roshi to flee and the voice of praise for Akira became more and more intense.

Of course, there is also the Sannin Tsunade, who is also very famous, but the effect is not as shocking as Akira this time.

That is a Jinchuriki who has the power of the tail beast, how could it actually be scared away by Akira?

When Suna, Iwa, Ame and other ninjas from big countries and small countries heard this news, they were shocked and each of them felt that Akira was really mysterious.

Others didn't know that the reason why Roshi was startled was because of the sage aura on Akira, but Akira also simply let this beautiful misunderstanding continue, so that Akira's reputation on the battlefield would be even higher.

Even Orochimaru and Jiraiya felt the pressure, which have stimulated them and also recently devoted themselves to studying ninjutsu, preparing to improve their strength.
