"That's the situation. I came back as soon as my injury got better!"
In the Hokage's office, Orochimaru stood in front of his desk and described the general situation of his trip.
Sitting in front of him were not only the Hokage, but also the other three Konoha high-level officials. This matter was related to the Jinchūriki of the Hidden Rock Village. It was not enough to just report to the Hokage, and the other high-level officials must also be present.
"Are you saying that the Five-Tails Jinchūriki disappeared after both of them were injured?"
Utatane Koharu asked first. Although the older generation of ninjas had experienced a war, the villages had not yet tamed the Jinchūriki at that time and did not put them on the battlefield.
There was no specific concept of the destructive power of the Jinchūriki on the battlefield, only that they were very strong.
Moreover, the Jinchūriki also had strengths and weaknesses. People like Mizukage Yagura or Six-Tails Yukito who could only use the power of the tailed beasts were not that strong.
They might still be afraid of the simple tailed beasts, but the Jinchūriki might not be. Look at Naruto in the future, he was controlled in minutes.
"Almost. If the Four-Tails Jinchūriki hadn't left for something, I don't think it would be easy to escape if the two of them joined forces!"
Orochimaru looked at the elders in front of him with a serious face and said earnestly.
He couldn't say that he could beat two Jinchūriki. No one would believe this shocking news. If it was true, the old guys in Konoha would be afraid.
Forget about the Will of Fire. Orochimaru doesn't have that kind of thing. If you want to restrain him and exchange him for benefits, to be an elder? To be a Hokage? Obviously, it's unlikely.
"Go back and recuperate first. Don't leave the village during this period. You may be summoned at any time."
The Third Hokage finally asked Orochimaru to leave first. There was no emotional fluctuation in his eyes, and the other three elders didn't say anything to make things difficult.
Looking at the back of Orochimaru walking away slowly, the Third Hokage's eyes showed a hint of deep meaning, and he smoked more frequently.
"Hiruzen, what do you think? How credible is Orochimaru's words?"
As soon as Orochimaru's figure disappeared, Mitomon broke the silence.
Orochimaru was Sarutobi Hiruzen's disciple after all, and if he knew anything, it would be his teacher who had the most say.
"I think he seems to be hiding something?"
Danzo didn't care what the others thought, and was the first to speak out his thoughts.
He didn't believe that Orochimaru would have such a high level of awareness and serve Konoha wholeheartedly without any selfishness. If it were him, Danzo would be about the same.
Although he didn't know Orochimaru as well as Sarutobi Hiruzen, but after working with Orochimaru for so long, he more or less knew that Orochimaru was a guy who would not give up until he saw the rabbit. When did he become a desperate man?
He took a random mission and went out to fight with the Jinchūriki. If it were a normal person, he would definitely run away at the first time. Look at Jiraiya's team, how could they stay and fight to the death?
"No matter what he concealed, it was beneficial to Konoha in the end. Everyone has selfish motives. As long as he doesn't do anything that harms Konoha's interests, he is a hero."
Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled heavily. He felt that he could not see through his disciple more and more, especially after mixing with Danzo in recent years, he was evasive in doing things.
Thinking of this, he looked at Danzo meaningfully, and Danzo also met his sharp eyes, but he might be guilty, so he quickly retracted his eyes.
"Humph! If Orochimaru does something that angers the heavens and the people, my roots are responsible for clearing the borers of Konoha. You don't need to tell me that I will be the first one to not let him go!"
Danzo said righteously, and it sounded like this, it was really a thief crying "Catch the thief".
"This matter needs to collect more information before it can be concluded. Now that the problem of Jinchūriki has been solved, we need to make a new plan."
The topic of Orochimaru that Utatane Koharu skipped was about adjusting the layout of the front line.
After leaving the Hokage building, Orochimaru's expression also relaxed. His original solemn look was swept away, and then came a face of comfort.
There is no internal injury, it's just a lie to fool people. Orochimaru is not afraid of being seen through by the elders. What if they see through it? He has really made an effort.
If he is not allowed to leave the village, then he can leave. Fighting and killing all day long is the most boring. It is more comfortable to do research in the village.
You can offend the other senior officials, but you can't give face to his teacher!
The most important thing is that this body of his is a mirror clone he just got, and the real body is still wandering outside with Honglian.
It's almost the same as he guessed. After he split this clone, Orochimaru's real body fell into unprecedented weakness, and it was a bit difficult to even move his fingers.
This is not a clone, it has taken away 99% of his vitality!
Fortunately, there is no sexualLife-threatening situation, just like having a serious illness, you have to lie down for a few days, waiting for the chakra to gradually recover.
The clone also stayed with the original body for two days before returning, but he didn't waste time, just in time to teach this little guy.
The clone met the Hokage as soon as he returned to Konoha. Even the Hokage who watched Orochimaru grow up couldn't see anything wrong with Orochimaru's body, let alone other people.
Not long after, Orochimaru returned to Tsunade's residence, and as soon as the door was opened, a little head popped out from the kitchen.
"Ah... Uncle!"
Shizune hurried over and threw herself into Orochimaru's arms.
"Okay, okay! You're so old now."
Orochimaru rubbed his head. This is not the crying little girl at the beginning.
"I heard that you went to the battlefield. My teacher and I were worried to death."
Shizune let go of Orochimaru a little embarrassedly, with concern in her eyes. Although Orochimaru had disappeared for a long time in the past, it was a peaceful period without any war.
It's different now. Many familiar faces around her have gone to the battlefield and failed to come back. This made Shizune, who had never seen the dangers of the battlefield, feel the horror of losing the war harvester for the first time.
"I heard that you were promoted to Chunin? I thought you were also on the front line."
Orochimaru closed the door and walked into the yard. When he heard this topic, Shizune's face first showed a bright smile, and then gradually disappeared.
Orochimaru chuckled at her Peking Opera face-changing speed:
"What? Are you not happy about being promoted to Chunin?"
Orochimaru pinched her little cheeks. The little girl's face is not as easy to pinch as when she was a child!
"It's because I was promoted to Chunin that I will go to the battlefield in two days. The teacher also told me to go to the logistics as a medical ninja to gain experience. If you come back two days later, you won't see me!"
Shizune said reluctantly, not knowing whether it was because Orochimaru came back late or because of the battlefield.
"Hehe... You are already a little adult, it's time to go out and see the world!"
Ignoring her grumbling, Orochimaru walked straight to the kitchen. Before he got close, another voice came out.
"Sister Shizune, who's here?"
