Konoha's Infinite Clone

Late at night, there was drizzle in the sky and a cool breeze blew.

In a port on the southern edge of the Kingdom of Fire, a tall tower stood quietly on the shore. The strong light from above was like a sharp sword, piercing into the depths of darkness, illuminating the rain like a fine needle.

.

Next to the dock building below, there were more than a dozen ninjas standing on the shore, each holding an umbrella, letting the small raindrops hit them.

Orochimaru stood at the front, holding an umbrella with one hand and putting the other hand in his pocket, quietly looking into the distance. In this dark night, the deep darkness could not block his sight, and the sea in the distance could not be blocked.

Slightly undulating, silver threads descending from the sky connect the sea and the sky.

And further away, he could see three ships breaking through the slight wind and waves, and they were thinking about moving forward to the dock. The distance between them was rapidly closing, which was by no means a speed that the ships themselves could achieve.

It should be some kind of word spirit that speeds up the ship's sailing. Orochimaru is not very familiar with the so-called word spirit periodic table, so he is not sure whether it has the ability to achieve similar effects.

Behind him were all the Jounin of Konoha, including Yuhi Kurenai, Moonlight Hayate, Shisui, Hyuga Hizashi and others, all holding umbrellas and standing quietly behind Orochimaru.

They also saw the three ships that were becoming more and more obvious on the sea. One of them was a hybrid, and the other two were the Kakashi fleet and the Asuma fleet that were previously responsible for assistance.

"Be prepared and alert."

Orochimaru whispered.

After the instructions, the ninjas quickly dispersed and stood on the shore to eliminate any possible danger.

In addition to his side, the fleet at sea was also very cautious. They stopped when they were still a certain distance from the coast. There was no anchor for it to stop, but under the effect of some kind of spirit, it just followed.

The waves rise and fall without any major movements.

At this time, one or two lifeboats were lowered from the ship, and the half-breeds jumped out. They wore ponchos and rowed towards the shore in the wind and rain.

Orochimaru glanced at it, but did not see the familiar Ange from above. This is normal. In this case, it is better to use some sailors who are of little use to find out the situation than Anger and others who are high-level mixed-race species.

When you appear in person, you must be able to conserve your strength to deal with possible dangers.

When the strong sailors rowed to the shore, Orochimaru nodded first, and then asked, "When are you going to continue setting off?"

"Mr. Henkel said that the repairs will take about an hour, and then we will take a boat to the entrance of the Nibelungen. At that time, we hope that you can fulfill our agreement."

"Of course, we have been looking forward to this mission for a long time."

After confirming that there was no problem here, the sailors made certain gestures on the ship, and one of them emitted intermittent bright lights with a frequency of three long and two short. After that, the ship that stayed on the sea began to continue sailing.

Soon we were close to the shore.

After fixing the anchor, the people on the boat began to disembark one by one. Orochimaru watched at the end, Ange and a hunched old man walked down the same line, knowing that the other person was Jiraiya who had sent a message back.

Hentai is taller.

"Where are the holy remains?"

The holy corpse refers to the body of Constantine, which is now stored in a golden coffin. In the previous exchange, they determined a rule, that is, they will no longer mention the four names of Constantine in the ninja world.

Character.

Because language occupies a large part in the dragon clan's power system, the language spirit used by the hybrids today is the language of the dragon clan in ancient times.

So they believe that the four words Constantine will cause a bad change in the outside world to some extent, and this change may not be noticeable at ordinary times, but at this moment, Constantine is beside them

corpses, they may react in some way to amplify this power and attract some people's attention.

Especially the attention of Norton, who is also the King of Bronze and Fire and is Constantine's brother.

Therefore, they used the holy relics to refer to Constantine's body.

Before, Orochimaru had not seen anyone bring down the golden coffin described in the message.

As for an item like this, Orochimaru didn't believe that Angers and Henkel could safely keep it out of their sight.

In other words, are there anti-counterfeiting measures that reassure both of them?

Are the hybrids secretly sending masters?

"The location of the sacred remains may be the safest place." Angers was still wearing his usual black suit. He held an umbrella in one hand and placed the other hand upright in a relaxed manner.

"The alchemy item of the Secret Party is numbered 666, which is the exclusive number of the legendary devil. Although I am not a member of the Secret Party, I have heard a little bit about this item."

Henkel did not bring an umbrella, nor did he share an umbrella with Angers. He was wearing a raincoat, and his leather boots made a crisp sound when he stepped on the rain-soaked earth.

He said with a slight smile, "Legend has it that anyone who touches that coffin will suffer irreversible bad luck. Even if they just touch it, they will be in danger of death within three days."

"If it's just like this, it's not enough to guarantee absolute safety." Orochimaru said.

In other words, it doesn't even have any safety effect at all.

There are as many people in the world who are not afraid of death as there are people who are afraid of death. As long as they use a little benefit that is insignificant to them, at least one-third of the people in the world can be willing to sacrifice their lives for it.

"Of course, but I won't know about it later." Henkel shrugged. "I'm not a member of the secret party after all."

"That's because..." Seeing what Henkel meant, Angers deliberately raised his voice and then laughed.

"Sorry, I forgot that there is a big businessman Henkel here who is working hard to maintain the economy for our secret party in the rear. It would be no problem if Mr. Orochimaru is the only one. After all, in the two previous cooperations, I believe that the relationship between us

Friendship, it doesn’t matter if I tell you about 666’s information, but this kind of information is often of extremely high value, and it’s not in line with the rules for me to tell it for free in front of a businessman.”

His barely concealed sarcasm made Henkel freeze, but he regained his composure the next moment, and just sighed and said, "That's such a pity. After all, even businessmen don't just pay for value."

when."

Orochimaru didn't listen to their exchange of words anymore. He said calmly, "Let's go back to the resting place first. There may be a long journey ahead that will make us nervous."

He turned around and left, but Angers and Henkel did not follow him immediately. After looking at each other, they took steps at the same time, as if they wanted to keep walking side by side.

As Angers said before, he was worried about handing over his back to Henkel.

………………

At this dock, Konoha temporarily built houses one after another to accommodate the hybrids and ninjas who came to rest at this moment.

This group of houses is divided into two opposing groups and is divided on the edge of the city, which is closer to the city center and closer to the port, so that people who get off the ship can rest as soon as possible.

There is hot water in the room and some novels and comics for relaxing. If you want more, you can go to a hotel called the Red Theater not far from here to find some women to relax your body and mind.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in various port cities. After sailing on the sea for an unknown amount of time, the first thing thirsty sailors often do is to go to a similar place.

However, these hybrids and ninjas are now elites, and their ability to control themselves is naturally not very strong. Each one of them entered the arranged room holding an umbrella or a raincoat, and drank a cup of hot tea to warm themselves up.

The reason why so much effort was expended to build these houses was that Orochimaru felt that since he had the first opportunity to communicate with the world where hybrids lived, there would undoubtedly be more in the future, and the two parties might meet one after another.

Send fleets to communicate with each other.

So it is better to build such a building complex in advance, not only for the present, but also for the future. This just reflects that Konoha attaches great importance to hybrids.

"In our myths and legends, 666 symbolizes a devil. The alchemical weapons named after this string of numbers are naturally extremely terrifying."

In Orochimaru's room, Ange poured himself a cup of hot tea unceremoniously, then leaned on the chair and said comfortably, "In addition to the effects that Henkel said before, he also has the soul of the contractor.

The ability to connect, even devils, are so good at using souls and contracts."

"With the help of this contract, I can see everything around '666', and I can transfer myself and the surrounding space there in an instant. In other words, there is no big difference between whether I take '666' with me or not, and whether I get off the ship with the holy remains."

of."

There was no Henkel in the room, so Angers told them about the effect of the golden coffin. After finishing speaking, he added, "Originally, the elders said that Henkel and the others could be informed of the effect of '666', but I personally told them

I don’t have much goodwill, and I don’t bother to mention it to them unless it is absolutely necessary.”

He lazily lifted the tea cup, then brought it to his mouth and blew on it, as if he couldn't wait to replenish his water.

After hearing Anger's words, Orochimaru nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "That guy is indeed very dangerous."

He sensed from Henkel's stooped and short figure that it contained extremely terrifying power. No wonder even Angers was so afraid of him.

"There was a world war in our world, and it did not involve the Dragon King. It was purely a war between us hybrids. Although we don't want to admit it, we may not be as good as Henkel and the others in dealing with hybrids.

"

"I've heard a little bit about it." Judging from the previous information, it seemed that Angers and Henkel were joining forces to fight against the forces of Uesugoshi, a former member of the Shichibukai.

Ange said with emotion, "Originally, when we two sides joined forces, victory was inevitable, but in order to speed up the victory, Henkel and the others secretly developed an extremely terrifying weapon."

"At the end of the war, the development of the big killer weapon was completed, and they dropped it on the other side's hometown. At that moment, it was like a million suns rising, and a blazing fire was like the Dragon King's world-destroying spirit.

Lasting for a long time, the huge mushroom cloud almost enveloped the entire Sheqi family, and I don’t know how many hybrids died as a result.”

At this point, he suddenly smiled mockingly, "I have been talking about useless things for a long time. It's really... Sometimes I wonder, am I really old when I am over a hundred years old? I heard that when people get old,

They will all become verbose.”

After hearing this, Orochimaru shook his head and said, "As far as I know, you hybrids are highly superior to ordinary humans in terms of lifespan."

"No matter how superior you are, it is rare to be over a hundred years old. After all, the longer you live, the more you lose and the more you fight. In this war that never stops, I have seen too many people die voluntarily.

He is an old guy. At that time, in the Kingdom of Water, Uesugi had the strength to fight his way out of the siege, but he chose to sacrifice his own life to die with a noble next-generation species."

There was emotion in his words. Perhaps in such a sentence, he had lost countless friends, and he did not know how much of his own emotions were contained in this sentence.

Orochimaru didn't understand this feeling and just echoed, "This is normal. If you will suffer more if you continue to live, then it is normal to choose to give up."

"Haha, sometimes I wonder if I might also lack some motivation to continue living?" Ange chuckled, then shook his head with a smile, "But that kind of motivation should never appear in me.

Okay. If the God of Destiny was listening to our conversation just now, then please delete the previous paragraph."

It always feels like you just established something...

On the battlefield, he was used to seeing many ninjas who said before their death, "I will go back to my hometown to get married after this war," "My child is about to be born," "What sound, I'll go check it out." Orochimaru always felt that

What Angers said just now can also be classified among them.

…………

Shaking away some thoughts from his mind, Orochimaru continued to speak with that calm expression.

"The area we are going to this time is directly Cassel Manor?"

Guessing that the tea was no longer as hot as it was at the beginning, Angers took a sip to test the temperature, and then said, "Yes, don't you have our token on your hand? With that badge, the Gate of Nibelung

You will be teleported to the entrance of the manor instantly. This is a privilege specially opened by Meineke. It can be very convenient for us and at least save a considerable part of the journey."

"Who will be there?" Orochimaru needs to evaluate his own combat effectiveness at that time. Although judging from the previous exchange with Norton, the Dragon King may not have the intention to take action, but he must be on guard.

"Lord Mayek, Viscount Charlotte, and Marquis Gambert, these are the three elders of our secret party. In addition to the first time, there are also the current leader of the secret party, Menech Cassel, and the Lionheart Club led by him. In addition to

Apart from that, it’s just us people.”

He took a sip of tea and continued, "Of course, I am a member of the Lionheart Club myself."
