Mizuki grabbed the cat by the scruff of the neck.

Be honest now!

The group continued westward and disappeared into the night.

After a while, a python as thick as a bowl emerged from the grass on the roadside. It was the unlucky snake that was bullied by the cat just now.

It glanced at the direction Mizuki and others left, then turned and swam towards Konoha.

Outside Konoha Village, the python stopped and opened its mouth.

A dry hand stretched out, then an arm, a head, and a body.

This is a toothless old woman in her late seventies, but her pupils are snake-like vertical ones, and she looks very cold-blooded.

"Finally back!" The hoarse voice was highly recognizable.

Anyone who has heard this voice will never forget it.

Orochimaru!

He encountered Mizuki in Kusakunin Village and was drained of his life force, leaving him with only 3 hours left to live.

He was not in a hurry at that time, he just needed to wait for a suitable person to take his body.

But I waited and waited, but no one came.

Just when 3 hours were about to pass and his life was about to come to an end, an old woman finally entered the house.

Better to die than live!

Although Orochimaru disliked the old woman for being too old, in order to avoid death, he could only use the Living Corpse Reincarnation Technique on the old woman.

At any rate, I can still survive for a few more years.

You only need to wait 3 years for the Living Corpse Reincarnation to cool down, and you can regain your youthful body.

So, he became what he is now.

He glanced westward and murmured:

"Mizuki actually came to Konoha and took away Hyuga Neji, the genius of the Hyuga family. Doesn't he know that the Hyuga family has Curse Mark: Caged Bird?"

"And the man who covered his face, I seemed to hear Hyuga Neji calling his father."

"Hyuga Hizashi, didn't you die a few years ago?"

"Could it be that Mizuki also mastered the Reanimation Jutsu? But why did I feel the heat in that person that only a living person can have?"

Snakes sense heat extremely sensitively and unerringly.

This also resulted in Orochimaru being unable to figure it out.

He was familiar with Impure World Reincarnation. People who came out of Impure World Reincarnation were still dead and their bodies were cold.

"Hyuga Neji recognized his godfather? Hyuga Hizashi is not dead? Or is Hyuga Hizashi resurrected from the dead?"

Orochimaru had various guesses in his mind, but they were limited to guesses.

He didn't know what the truth was.

"We must investigate clearly. It's not too late to send people back to the village now."

He walked towards the entrance of the village, and at the same time reached out to his face, grabbed the skin and pulled it down, revealing the pale skin underneath.

In just a few steps, he transformed from a stooped old woman into a young Orochimaru.

Of course, he only looks young on the outside, but in fact, his body is still that of an old woman, old and decayed, and he dare not walk fast.

He returned to Konoha and entered the Hokage's office.

Danzo came to find him immediately.

"Orochimaru, as the Fifth Hokage, you don't take charge of the overall situation in the village, but you leave the village alone without saying anything. Do you have a sense of responsibility?"

"What will happen to Konoha if something happens to you outside?"

Orochimaru said coldly: "Danzo, you don't need to ask what I do."

Danzo was speechless, then changed the subject and accused: "Did you know that during the time you left, something big happened in Konoha. Fortunately, it didn't lead to a big mistake, otherwise you would be Konoha's sinner."

Orochimaru said calmly: "Since it didn't lead to a big mistake, it's not a big deal."

"You..." Danzo opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.

"Okay, if you have something to say, just say it, if nothing else, just get out."

Danzo: "Mizuki entered the village and took Hyuga Neji away. You immediately ordered Hyuga Hiashi to execute Hyuga Neji with a Caged Bird."

"In addition, Mizuki also took away an unidentified person. We need to conduct a village-wide investigation to find out the identity of that person."

Orochimaru glanced at Danzo and said, "Mizuki-kun is not a stupid person. Since he took away Hyuga Neji, it means that he has a way to restrain Caged Bird."

"As a genius of the Hyuga family, Hyuga Neji must have the confidence to dare to follow Mizuki openly."

"So I think that even if Hizashi activates Caged Bird, he may not be able to kill Hyuga Neji."

It must be said that Orochimaru responded quickly.

Based on Mizuki's actions, he immediately had a guess.

"What, restrain Caged Bird?" Danzo was shocked and said: "This is not possible, this is absolutely not possible. If Mizuki really has a way to restrain Caged Bird, wouldn't all the Hyuga branch houses defect to him?"

Orochimaru's face was also filled with worry.

"I care more about another thing than the Hyuga branch house."

"On my way back to the village just now, I met Mizuki-kun and three others. In addition to Mizuki-kun and Hyuga Neji, there was another person who was wearing a bamboo hat and couldn't see his appearance clearly."

"But I heard, Hyuga Neji called him father."

Hearing this, Danzo's eyes suddenly widened.

"No, Mizuki has also mastered the Reanimation Jutsu. How did he learn it so quickly?"

"He came to Konoha to enter the cemetery and steal the corpse."

"Quick, Orochimaru, use Impure World Reincarnation Summoning on all the strong men who died in the village, and get one step ahead of Mizuki, so that his conspiracy cannot succeed."

Then he said: "I will provide the sacrifice for Impure World Reincarnation."

Orochimaru shook his head and said, "I doubt it's Impure World Reincarnation."

Danzo frowned and said, "What is it if it's not Impure World Reincarnation?"

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Hyuga Hiashi walked into the office.

"Lord Hokage, what do you want from me?"

Hiashi looked unhappy. He felt that Orochimaru was looking for him to order him to kill Neji with Caged Bird.

Neji is his nephew, how could he do it?

"Hiashi, there is something that you need to confirm in person."

Hiashi was stunned, he didn't kill Neji?

"Sir Hokage, please speak."

Orochimaru said: "You should know about Mizuki taking Hyuga Neji away. There is an unidentified person traveling with them. I suspect that he is Hyuga Hizashi."

"This is impossible!" Hiashi shouted immediately.

But then he thought of something and couldn't help but curse: "Damn Mizuki, you actually played with the dead..."

He shut up mid-sentence, glanced at Orochimaru, and said, "Sorry, I lost my mind."

Orochimaru: "..."

"Whether it is Impure World Reincarnation still needs to be confirmed. You have to go there in person, and I will send Anbu to accompany you to protect you."

"Remember, you can only watch from a distance, never get close."

"I must know whether Hyuga Hizashi is the body of Impure World Reincarnation, or is he really resurrected."

Hyuga Hiashi set off immediately, accompanied by 3 Anbu for protection.

The four of them ran as fast as they could and headed west after leaving the village. Hiashi also turned on his Byakugan.

Soon, Hiashi saw three people a kilometer away, two of them were Mizuki and Neji, and the other one was wearing a bamboo hat.

"Brother, is it really you?"

Hiashi was a little looking forward to it, and a little nervous at the same time, but no matter what, he wanted to find out the truth of the matter.

As a result, Byakugan's vision penetrated the bamboo hat and saw clearly the face under the mask.

Hiashi shuddered, and his advancing body immediately stopped.

"It's really him, and he's alive, but...how is this possible?"

"Master Hiashi, what happened?" Three Anbu stopped and asked Hiashi.

Hiashi couldn't calm down for a long time, his face was full of disbelief.

He repeatedly confirmed with his white eyes, and the result was that the person was the living Hyuga Hizashi.

The heart is beating, the blood is circulating in the body, and the eyes are not as black as Impure World Reincarnation.

He sighed and said: "Go back and see Fifth Generation. The mission has been completed!"

One kilometer away, Mizuki held the cat in his arms and glanced back without trace.

Rinnegan has the attribute of perception. Although Mizuki did not deliberately train his perception ability, he still felt the gaze from behind.

"The action was pretty fast, but it doesn't matter."

Even if Konoha knew that it could resurrect the dead, what could it do?

Here, Hyuga Hiashi and three Anbu returned to Konoha as quickly as possible to meet Orochimaru.

"Hokage-sama, I have confirmed that that person is my brother Hyuga Hizashi."

He took a deep breath and continued: "It's alive!"

Upon hearing this news, Orochimaru's eyes suddenly widened.

His long tongue couldn't help but poke out his lips, stir it up in the air, and wash his face by the way.

"Mizuki-kun, he actually mastered the art of resurrecting the dead. He is indeed someone I admire."

Danzo couldn't sit still and said: "Orochimaru, at this time, what are you still admiring? Mizuki can resurrect the dead, which is not a good thing for Konoha."

"He resurrected Hizashi today, thereby taking Neji away. Tomorrow he can resurrect the relatives of other ninjas, and use this as a favor or blackmail to make more people defect to Konoha."

"He can even resurrect your parents as a threat to you and make you obey his words. You are the Hokage of Konoha and must not be manipulated by others."

Orochimaru glanced at Danzo and said: "With Mizuki-kun's strength, do you still need to use these to blackmail others?"

Danzo said anxiously: "We must prepare for the worst."

He has a grudge against Mizuki, so he doesn't want to see the Phoenix Village built by Mizuki grow.

Whatever Mizuki wants to do, he tries to trip him up.

Orochimaru said: "It's useless, we can't stop him."

"The only thing we can do now is to completely block the news that Mizuki can resurrect the dead, and never let other villagers know about it."

"Otherwise, the ninjas in the village will take the initiative to defect and go to Phoenix Village. By then, Konoha will collapse from within."

Danzo didn't give up and said: "You can use Impure World Reincarnation to Summon the dead strong men, and then seal their souls to prevent Mizuki from resurrecting them."

"Absolutely not!" Hyuga Hiashi objected immediately.

However, Orochimaru became thoughtful.
