My Hidden Road

Orochimaru patted Naoto's shoulder and took him to the deck of the merchant ship. Today's Orochimaru is not the ruthless one who killed people in the future. At most, he is a little ruthless now. Naoto saw his eyes with vertical pupils, and the snake

The eyes are very similar.

Naoto dared to conclude that Orochimaru was sincere when he said this, without a trace of emotion. He was considering whether to kill himself and Mr. Sansai in order to keep it secret. The result of his consideration was whether Naoto's answer would satisfy him.

Mr. Sansai under the boat is hoping that Naoto can persuade Orochimaru to let them stay here for a while to appreciate the customs here. Mr. Sansai does not yet know that the current situation is dangerous.

"This place is quite far from Sunagakure..."

"Is this your answer?" Orochimaru asked curiously.

Naoto looked at the gulls and herons flying in the sea and sky, "Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth and honor are in the sky, humans are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat. What can I do about some things? I might as well accept them."

"Don't you want to resist?"

"It will kill people."

"Ho ho ho." Orochimaru couldn't help laughing and said: "You are not a submissive person. I think you may be a spy, right?"

"I'm not."

"Oh. In this case, you are of no use, so go to hell!"

Naoto suddenly changed his face and said: "I am a spy. I accepted the order of Hanzo, the leader of Amegakure Village, and waited for an opportunity to sneak into Sunagakure Village to obtain confidential information, but I have not infiltrated yet."

"Maybe you should come up with something to prove." Orochimaru looked at Naoto coldly, like a coiled snake ready to attack at any time and inject venom to achieve a fatal blow.

"Everything has been dealt with, for your own safety."

Orochimaru praised: "This is the style of a spy, dealing with items that are dangerous to you. Then can you tell me why you sneaked into this port? You must have some intention."

What could he have in mind? He just came here to avoid the war. These big shots are really vigilant and have a high degree of association. However, they can't be a commander even if they don't have high levels of association. Naoto racked his brains to compile a suitable excuse.

How about saying that you discovered the tomb of the Immortal of Six Paths?

"Is this a forced confession?" Naoto asked.

"No."

Orochimaru smiled evilly: "This is called surrender. As long as you tell all the information, I can even let you join the Konoha army. You will not continue to live like this in the future, living in fear every day."

"If you join the Konoha army, you will die faster. I'm afraid of death."

"That would be easier to talk about." Orochimaru began to sell his ideals again: "No one wants to die. Fear of death is the most basic respect for life. I appreciate this very much."

"I said."

Naoto shook things out like beans from a bamboo tube:

"In the Country of Rain, I was noticed by Master Hanzo. He secretly sent me to leave the Country of Rain to conduct intelligence investigation. The main direction was about the puppet technique of Sunagakure Village. When I was in Yunin Village, I was secretly approaching the puppet technique master of Sunagakure.

Chiyo, but unfortunately had a conflict with Tsunade-hime, so I came here to wait for an opportunity to sneak into the Kingdom of Wind.

At the same time, during the plan to sneak into the Kingdom of Wind, I accidentally met Ye Cang, the blood-stained ninja of Sunagakure, and planned to use her help to enter Sunagakure Village, but the situation was not ideal."

"As expected, it's not much different from what I imagined. You are very talented as a spy."

Naoto smiled awkwardly, "Sir Orochimaru, you are joking. It is only because you are afraid of death that you dare not enter the Kingdom of Wind. Perhaps Hanzo-sama has already thought that I have been unfortunately killed."

"No."

Orochimaru smiled evilly and said: "I said that fear of death is respect for life. People who are also afraid of death dare to do anything. As long as they hold on to his life, he will even assassinate the daimyo."

"You... what you want to do, I've told you everything I need to say."

"But I'm not interested in this information. Now you have to continue to complete the task assigned to you by Hanzo. It's just to report to me. Naoto Sekikawa makes your own choice."

Naoto licked his dry lips and said eagerly: "So, you want me to be..."

"Be my spy."

Orochimaru took out a scroll and said: "I will not coerce you, but will make you willing to become my subordinate. You once rescued refugees in the Country of Rain with your companions, which proves that you are a person who is willing to sacrifice. Yugakure is here

Hanzo's rule cannot last long, don't you want to return to your hometown one day and build a beautiful and wealthy Rain Country?"

"it's out of the question······"

"Why?" A fierce light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.

"As long as there are villages from the five major countries, the Rain Country will never become rich, ever."

"Don't you want to go back to your hometown?"

Naoto gritted his teeth and said, "I want to, even in my dreams!"

Of course, you have to think that if Naoto said he didn't want to return to his hometown, then maybe Orochimaru would skin him alive.

"Do you still have friends in the Land of Rain?"

"have."

Orochimaru said with satisfaction: "I will solve Hanzo's problem. Now you can go back to your hometown to find your friends, and at the same time secretly report to me the information about the Kingdom of Rain."

"Now?" Naoto looked surprised.

"As you like, there is a way to contact me in the scroll. Return to the Kingdom of Rain and report Hanzo's information to me, anything and everything!"

"good!"

Naoto took the scroll from Orochimaru's hand. He had had enough of this wandering life. Although he had a safe place to live and had enough food, he was always dependent on others. He had no connections or a strong village to support him. He couldn't go anywhere.

It's a shame.

Especially their words: Leave here and go to other places, anywhere. It’s like driving away the wild dogs on the roadside from the land of rain to the land of rivers. As long as you can live in peace for a while,

Time will be driven away in this way.

Naoto agreed to become Orochimaru's spy and return to the country that had been crying, where he had his friends and home.

The two have a common enemy, and that is Hanzo. It was he who expelled Naoto from the Land of Rain, causing him to live a wandering life for two years and waste two years. Orochimaru still held a grudge because of the original battle, and always wanted to one day

Avenge.

Naoto took out a hand-drawn map from the satchel on his waist. It was a standard map with the directions of mountains and rivers, the height of mountains, etc. marked.

"I marked all the areas I passed during my wanderings and made a map. I hope it will be helpful to you."

Orochimaru picked up the map and looked at it carefully. He looked at Naoto with a hint of praise in his eyes, "You are indeed an excellent spy. Such a standard map is completely up to the level of a military map. Naoto-kun, I saw you right."

"Thank you for the praise, it's deserved."

Naoto wandered in the country of Kawakawa for two years and spent two years. He didn't know what Kitosuke and Daibutsu were like now. Naoto was eager to return home. The two stayed for one night and prepared to pack up and leave the port the next day, but Orochi

Maru's troops made a surprise attack on Sunagakure and headed towards the Country of Wind.
