Change from ninja world

Orochimaru dragged his seriously injured body and walked east for half an hour, and then saw Kakuzu waiting for him there. Although Orochimaru looked miserable and his body was covered in blood, at least he still had clothes to wear.

But what about Kakuzu? At this time, Kakuzu's upper body is bare, and his pants on the lower body are in tatters. Coupled with his dark skin, he looks like an African refugee.

"I didn't expect you to survive that kind of attack..." Kakuzu said. He seemed to be expressing surprise, but his expression showed that he didn't think Orochimaru would be killed, otherwise he wouldn't have to do it.

Waiting here.

"It's a matter of luck. The opponent's technique hasn't been completed yet and he's just using it reluctantly. He may not have such luck next time." Orochimaru said.

"The first time I teamed up with you to perform a mission, we failed. It seems that the compatibility between us is not very good."

"Really, but I don't think this is my problem... As far as the previous battle is concerned, the strength you showed did not even surpass Kakashi." Orochimaru did not have any respect for the senior Kakuzu.
Orochimaru's emotional intelligence can be shown to be higher, but it is not necessary.

These rude words instantly made Kakuzu's eyes become dangerous, "Be careful what you say, because careless people often don't have the chance to speak again."

An internal strife seemed to be about to break out, but at this moment, an origami butterfly floated in front of the two of them. It flew around Orochimaru and Kakuzu twice, then flapped its wings and flew high, landing on a tree.

On a horizontal branch of a big tree.

For some reason, a large amount of paper suddenly flew out of the air, and they flew towards the place where the butterfly was. As these things gathered together, a figure appeared.

"You actually failed in a very promising mission. You must know that the organization paid a considerable price to obtain the location of the Red Sand Scorpion... In the end, the 'Sannin' are just ninjas from the old era. It doesn't seem to matter.

Remarkable."

The person who appeared in front of Orochimaru and Kakuzu was Konan. It was obvious that she did not want to waste her emotional intelligence in such a place.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes. He was sinister, cunning, dangerous, deceitful, etc. He had received various evaluations in his life, but this was the first time he had been told "you are too good" by someone in person.
He was about to say something (or prepare to do something), but after he inadvertently raised his head and glanced at Xiaonan's appearance, a certain feeling of déjà vu made him stop his impulse. Of course, this was

This was not the first time Orochimaru saw Konan. He knew before that Konan was someone the leader of the organization truly trusted. However, now that he saw the other person's profile, a certain familiar feeling seemed to emerge from his long-lost memory.

Come out.

"The organization's intelligence capabilities? This intelligence did not tell me that the mission would be obstructed by Konoha ninjas." Kakuzu snorted coldly.

The mission itself is to capture the Red Sand Scorpion, but in fact they have been fighting Konoha Ninjas and have never come into contact with the Scorpion. In theory, they should complete the mission against all odds, and just kick the Konoha Ninjas away.

, but didn’t they fail to do so?

So you have to make excuses when you should. There is obviously something wrong with your organization’s intelligence.

Orochimaru remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking in his mind.

"I saw the battle between you. I didn't expect that after the Fourth Hokage, there would still be such ninjas in Konoha..." Konan watched the whole battle.

In fact, we are all acquaintances, and Xiaonan has indirect contact with Hahara.

"Let's abandon this mission here. The strength of the Crimson Sand Scorpion is only this, and it is not strong enough to join our organization. But I hope you can keep this lesson in mind and don't fail again next time."

Konan didn't care whether Scorpion's ability was restrained by Habara. She only saw Scorpion being beaten violently by Habara and couldn't even resist. In this case, she only felt that there were rumors about the strength of Red Sand Scorpion in the ninja world.

It's an exaggeration, so it's okay not to have a ninja of this level.

There is also a superior-subordinate relationship within the "Akatsuki" organization. Although what Konan said is not polite, in many cases she represents the leader of the organization, so this is advice from a superior to a subordinate, and Kakuzu cannot say anything to refute it.

p>

After a while, Orochimaru seemed to have figured out something, so he also showed his "submissive" side.

"Is there nothing wrong with your injuries?"

Xiaonan didn't want to ask this, but she was afraid that bringing two wounded people would delay their return to Yugakure.

"Haha," Orochimaru laughed hoarsely twice, and then said, "It doesn't matter."

As he said that, he coughed violently again, as if he was about to cough up his breath. Just when Kakuzu and Konan suspected that this man was about to hiccup, with a cough, an arm came out of Orochimaru's hand.

spit it out from his mouth.

The five fingers of that hand moved, and he touched Orochimaru's face. As if to confirm something, he continued to stretch out. When this hand reached to the elbow, the other hand also started to move.

He stuck it out from his mouth.

At this time, Orochimaru's breathing had become like a broken bellows. As his body twisted strangely, his painful breathing echoed continuously in the woods.

Two arms opened Orochimaru's mouth, and a new head poked out of the mouth. Another Orochimaru was born, and his old body turned down bit by bit, and a new body was born.<

/p>

His whole body seemed to be turned inside out, and after the turning was completed, the injuries on his body disappeared. It was a bit like a Möbius strip turning in a circle. There was actually a trace of order in Orochimaru's "rebirth".

and harmony.

"It's totally fine on my side, it's just a minor injury." Orochimaru smiled and repeated.

The scene just now was so mind-numbing that Xiaonan, who had witnessed the whole process, could only bite the bullet and said, "That's good, let's return as soon as possible."

"Of course." Orochimaru said, as if his injuries had really healed completely.

His "transformation" just now was obviously deliberately weird, and the purpose was to slightly stimulate this "angel" who didn't know much about emotional intelligence. It was a small response to her accusation that he was "a dishonest".

Anyway, in the next period of time, as long as Konan and Orochimaru stay in the same space, she will feel both physical and psychological discomfort. Although she has always maintained a paralyzed face, the feeling is only for her.

You know best.

After the three of them returned to the Land of Rain, Konan went to Amegakure alone to report the mission situation to Nagato, while Orochimaru and Kakuzu disbanded on the spot.

Although Orochimaru now belongs to Akatsuki, he is neither too close nor too far from the core of the organization. Sometimes he will go in and out of Amegakure, but he will not stay in Amegakure Village for a long time... This approach is not good for

There are benefits to both sides. Even Nagato feels that placing these lawless ninjas in Amegakure Village is not conducive to his secret rule.

It's still Akatsuki's dormant period, so keeping a low profile is their duty.

Therefore, Orochimaru's secret base is only within the scope of the Kingdom of Rain. He will be summoned by Akatsuki when necessary, and he maintains a considerable degree of autonomy in his usual actions.

After returning to his hometown, Orochimaru spent a few days step by step, playing with the endless bottles and cans as always, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

However, in the middle of the night one day, Orochimaru, who had fallen into a deep sleep, suddenly opened his eyes. Then he used psychic skills to summon a communication snake. He quickly stuffed a scroll into the mouth of the communication snake, and then

Released it...

It can be seen that Orochimaru's vigilance is very good. After knowing that he is under the eyes of reincarnation, he naturally uses as much caution as he can.

…………

Just when Orochimaru and Kakuzu gave up the Red Sand Scorpion mission and prepared to return to the Kingdom of Rain, Habara and Kakashi were still moving towards the Kingdom of Winds dutifully. They fell behind the Sunagakure duo.

While protecting each other, be prepared to cut off the opponent's back at any time for the Sunagakure duo.

However, they did not go too deep into the Kingdom of Wind. After all, they also knew that there was a slight possibility that they would not be liked by Sunagakure. Being too close to Sunagakure would not only put themselves in a dangerous situation, but may even cause unnecessary diplomatic disputes.

p>

Therefore, they only escorted Chikamatsu Zaemon for a short distance, and after roughly confirming that she had been supported by Sunagakure and would no longer encounter any danger, Hahara and Kakashi began to leave the Country of Wind and move towards the Country of Kawakawa.
When they crossed the Kawa Country and just entered the Fire Country, Hahara suddenly heard the cry of an eagle in mid-air.

He stopped and looked up into the air.

"What's wrong?" Kakashi asked.

"It's a message from Sunagakure, I guess." Habara said as he crossed his arms.

The eagle circled in the air a few times, as if to confirm the identity of the two people below. Then it flapped its wings, pounced down in twos and threes, and landed on Hahara's forearm.

Habara untied the bamboo tube tied to the eagle's talon, pulled out the secret message hidden in it, and after briefly translating the secret text, he said to Kakashi, "We're all alive, Chikamatsu has returned to Sunagakure, the mission

A complete success."

The mission was indeed successful, but Kakashi was not completely worried. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but said, "Is it really okay to keep that puppet?"

"What problem can there be? Will Sunagakure make formal representations to Konoha because of this matter? How should I say it, asking Konoha to return the puppet made from the corpse of the third Kazekage? I don't want to lose face? If it is an informal negotiation

, why should we care about them?" Hahara waved his hand and said.

"You can tell me the truth and the truth." Kakashi shrugged and didn't care about it anymore.

Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him.

"Otherwise? How long has it been since the strongest Kazekage disappeared? Sunagakure must have predicted his ending. Is it possible that now they still hope that the third Kazekage will be okay?"

"It's not a good idea to ridicule a village of shadows."

"It's not a good thing to ridicule anyone. Is it a good thing to ridicule you, Kakashi-senpai?"

Kakashi: "..."

I don’t know why, Kakashi suddenly didn’t want to talk.
