Konoha's Destiny Twins

"How is your recovery in April?"

"about there."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but why does it feel like Orochimaru suddenly changed into a different person, and seems to be easy to talk to?

And very helpful to him?

"Speaking of which, why are you here?" Qing Shui asked.

"Just like you, Mr. April, you are a counter-spiritual person."

"No, I mean, why are you here."

"Suer and the others are back, and I also understand what happened." Orochimaru paused for a moment and continued, "Although it seems impossible to survive, I always feel that Yuki-kun will not die so easily."

Indeed, when the mission first began, Orochimaru still viewed the mission with a transactional attitude.

However, no one could be moved by the knowledge that Qing Shui had taken the initiative to shoulder the heavy burden and was in danger because of it.

Because in fact, from Orochimaru's point of view, this task originally only needed to be completed by calling on a group of ninjas who dared to sacrifice themselves.

Qingshui paid more for this than the transaction itself...

The dignified Sannin had no habit of taking advantage of others.

"So I asked Her Highness the Princess to reverse-channel you to Longdi Cave."

"What about my psychic beast?"

"He died a long time ago, and his body is deep in Longdi Cave.

Orochimaru suddenly smiled: "But now, there should be no corpses left."

Qingshui suddenly remembered what Orochimaru said, that the psychic beast will return to its original world after it dies.

So if Orochimaru hadn't appeared, he might have entered the belly of another Orochimaru now...

"This time, I really have to thank you." Qing Shui said sincerely.

"Haha, there is no need to thank you, Mr. April. If you hadn't risked your life to complete the task, I don't think there would have been so many things."

Did Orochimaru mean that he was moved by Qing Shui's heroic and fearless spirit?

This doesn't seem very scientific...

Aren't snakes cold-blooded animals?

Therefore, Orochimaru must be mocking his fearlessness as an ignorant person.

Even this kind of thing can turn the ship upside down...

"Then why aren't you curious about whether I have completed my mission?"

"Hehehe... Mr. April really loves to joke. Now that the entire southwest mountain range has collapsed, do I still need to ask you?"

"Well?!"

What? !

Such a large southwest mountain range... is all gone? !

"Yiyuki-kun is indeed a big deal this time, and even the entire ninja world was shocked."

Qing Shui pursed his lips.

Is this not shocking? There is Luoye City in front of it and the Southwest Mountains behind it, all of which have been wiped off the map...

For a moment, it seemed as if there were crowds waving white flags and cheering in my ears.

"Our slogan is - let the enemy never occupy our territory again, let Konoha remain invincible forever."

"Our next target is - Platycodon City."

Orochimaru continued: "You must know that what disappeared along with the Southwest Mountains were the thousands of Sand Ninja stationed around them."

"Yiyuejun, you have made great achievements, so naturally you are worth a lot of money."

But when Orochimaru said this, why was his smile so weird? !

"Net worth? What do you mean?"

"Sunagakure really wants to tear your bones apart... On the black market, your head has been sold for 400 million taels."

"..."

It was over, Qing Shui felt cold.

But he's not worried about someone chasing him...

But... the friendship boat with Kakuzu has sunk.

But... having said that, how many true feelings can escape the curse of money?

Thinking of this, Qing Shui was relieved.

"When you go back this time, the teacher will definitely reward you."

"money?"

"That could be ninjutsu, or a higher position."

"Okay." In fact, Qingshui is not too interested. If possible, he still wants to know how to learn immortal skills.

"By the way Orochimaru, how's your mission going?"

Orochimaru replied: "It's done."

Uh... isn't this a little too brief?

"How is the situation? Where are the losses? Where are the results?"

"It's a tough bone,

It took nearly a thousand ninjas being injured before burning up all their supplies. "

"Isn't it that Sunagakure is about to retreat?"

"On the contrary, the day of the decisive battle has been brought forward. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle in just these few days."

Qingshui understood instantly that Sunagakure would not give up until he reached his goal.

Having spent so much manpower and material resources, and still refraining from rashly launching a general attack until today, Sunagakure is probably fully confident of capturing Platycodon Castle!

But at the moment, there are still more important things. Qingshui has not forgotten another important reason why he signed the contract with Longdi Cave: "Now that you are here, will you also find me a reliable psychic beast?"

"I have found a psychic beast for you that meets your requirements."

Orochimaru is becoming more and more reliable.

It feels like an intimate little cotton-padded jacket!

"where?"

"It's at the deepest level of the upper level of Ryūchi Cave." Orochimaru explained. "Ryūchi Cave is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Our field of vision is not greatly affected on the upper layer. However, the field of view becomes extremely poor starting from the middle layer, while the lower layer has already It’s pitch black. The target this time is in the deepest part of the upper level.”

"Its name is Xinya, and it is a big red snake with reverse scales and one eye."

"The big snakes in Longdi Cave hate it and are afraid of it because it is powerful and has an extremely violent personality."

"Her Royal Highness the Princess told me this."

"Is it more powerful than ten thousand snakes?"

"Yes. But he is not a member of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Snakes."

"I will not participate in this muddy water."

"But I will wait for you here for two days. If you don't come back, I can only treat you as dead."

Orochimaru continued to explain: "Her Highness the Princess will not waste her chakra to perform counter-psychic techniques for mortals, so you only have one chance to get out."

"Because she will go into deep sleep in two days. If she misses this time, she will have to wait until she wakes up..."

"A snake's sleep can last from a few days to several years."

"So Mr. April, you must come back within two days."

This...if I miss it, I might be trapped here for a few years? !

Qingshui solemnly said: "Okay, I will pay attention to the time."

"By the way, is there any trick? Or what are his weaknesses?"

Qingshui has not forgotten how terrifying and intelligent this big snake is. It is probably not an existence that can be conquered by force.

"Just pull out his reverse scales and that's it."

"It's that simple?"

"Yes, these are the exact words of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Okay, I'll go back as soon as possible!" After saying that, Qingshui ran directly towards the depths of Longdi Cave.

"Orochimaru, do you have confidence in him?" Suddenly a girl's voice came from the air.

"Because he can always surprise people. I have never seen such a ninja."

"But it's a pity that he can't learn magic." The girl said calmly.

"The teacher also doesn't know senjutsu, but he is still known as 'the strongest Hokage in history, the hero of Shinobi - Sarutobi Hiruzen'."

"Senjutsu and ordinary chakra are not the same level of power. You have this view, which means you don't understand the power of senjutsu."

"You have lived so long and have you ever met the First Hokage?"

"How could I care about the existence of a mortal?"

"Haha...I haven't seen it either." Orochimaru said slowly, "But I have seen the teacher's actions."

"He is the most powerful ninja in the history of this village!"

"It's not just me, the older generation of ninjas in the village, even those who have retired long ago, have this view."

"Everyone thinks he is the 'strongest Hokage in history'."
