Chapter 665

Although Orochimaru's power and chakra volume could not compare to Shukaku's,

his speed, agility, combat awareness, etc., were enough to crush Shukaku.

Shukaku's massive body destined it to be a target.

As long as one could avoid Shukaku's attacks, defeating it would be much easier.

In the future, there was an organization called 'Akatsuki'; some of their members were even weaker than Kage.

But in the matter of dealing with Tailed Beasts, they were indeed remarkably successful.

Even the weakest among them had successfully captured Tailed Beasts.

From this perspective, Tailed Beasts were indeed not invincible existences.

Therefore, when Haruno Sakura asked this question, Hatake Kakashi didn't know how to answer at first.

"Naruto, you must do your best, and please don't get hurt..."

Hearing her teacher say this, Haruno Sakura's worried expression deepened.

She had only witnessed how strong Shukaku was from the spectator stands, and that was with the protection of a barrier, so she didn't know its true strength.

Orochimaru was different; Haruno Sakura had personally experienced his strength during the Chunin Exam.

Just a single glance from him made her feel incomparably terrified.

That fear still lingered in her heart even now...

"Don't worry! With Minato-sensei and the others there, Naruto will be fine!"

Looking at Haruno Sakura's worried expression, Hatake Kakashi comforted her with a smile.

"Yeah... I hope so..."

"But, where is Orochimaru now?"

On the other side, behind the arena, Uzumaki Naruto and the others were discussing another matter.

"Don't worry, Rin, this big snake has been hiding in the most conspicuous place all along!"

After speaking, Uchiha Obito glanced at the Kazekage in the spectator stands and said with a smile:

"Are you going to come down yourself, or should I beat you down?"

PS: Kakashi's favorite student is Sasuke; he said this himself in the anime.... ===== CHAPTER 667 =====
