Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

Chapter 174 The Consciousness of Death

169 chapter

Even under the dark night, the face reflected in the eyes of the spring at this time still looks too white and bloodless.
Quan had been knocked unconscious before without seeing the enemy's appearance clearly.

The man in front of her was a man with long black hair. Although his appearance was handsome, he gave off an extremely gloomy and dangerous feeling.

Especially the golden vertical pupils like snakes are looking at Quan with great interest.

"The little girl didn't even yell in this current situation. She's quite courageous." The long-haired man smiled lightly, thinking of it with a little surprise.

"Who are you? Why are you arresting me?"

Izumi looked at the long-haired man calmly and asked, because Itachi once told her that the more dangerous the moment, the more calm you must be as a ninja.

"What beautiful eyes."

The man looked into Quan's eyes and murmured softly.

He straightened up and turned to look in the direction of the creek behind him. Of course he couldn't explain it to Quan so clearly.

call!
At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blows, and the long black hair of the man in front of Quan's eyes flutters with it.

Quan saw that the man's slender mouth raised a sharp arc.

"Well, I can tell you the name."

"My name is Orochimaru."

"Orochimaru!?"

After Quan heard the name, a look of shock appeared on his face.

Even though she is just Konoha Shinobi now, she has already heard this name when she was in ninja school.

Because in the ninja world, everyone has heard of the name Konoha Sannin!

This legendary title began with the Second Ninja World War.

Konoha Sannin, the leader of the Rain Country at that time, was honored as the demigod Sansho Hanzo by the world and bestowed the title of three young ninjas who could fight with them undefeated for a long time.

And as time passed, the three young men who were bestowed the title of Sannin by Hanzo at that time had become legendary existences.

The names of those three people are Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Orochimaru!

Izumi stared at Orochimaru in amazement. He had betrayed Konoha a few years ago, and now he is an S-rank terrorist criminal on Konoha's most wanted list.

"Why didn't he kill me"

What Lingquan didn't understand was that Orochimaru, who was Konoha's traitor, only captured her, but didn't kill her for a long time.

In order to get information about Konoha from himself?
Izumi knew that as a Konoha Shinobi, the information he knew should not have any special value for a person of Orochimaru's level.

"What is his purpose?" Quan found that he couldn't figure out why Orochimaru did this anyway.

"Aren't you panicking after learning my identity?"

Orochimaru turned his head, his gaze resting on Izumi's face for a moment.

"If you can't attract that kid, this girl is worth looking forward to."

He himself is not very interested in the girl in front of him, even if she has Sharingan.

However, Quan Yilian's reaction exceeded Orochimaru's expectations.

"Am I going to die?"

Quan murmured in her heart, she couldn't think of the purpose of Orochimaru, but the latter was Konoha's rebellious ninja after all.

She didn't think that if she fell into the hands of Orochimaru, there would be no good end.

Although Quan usually gives people the impression of gentleness and kindness, she has a tenacity in her bones that cannot be lost to anyone.

From day one of becoming a ninja, she was ready to die.

This is the awareness that every ninja needs to have.

Thinking of this, Quan's heart gradually became sad, and those bright eyes sparkled, and tears fell down his and her eye sockets.

"Are you still afraid? You have already thought about your own ending."

Orochimaru saw Izumi crying, thinking she was afraid of death.

"I have already said that I won't leave you alone again, I'm sorry, Itachi."

Quan is not afraid of death, but she still has a lot of reluctance in her heart.

Itachi has always been her reliance on her ninja journey, but at this moment, Quan does not want the boy to appear in front of her like a savior.

Because Quan is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of hurting Itachi.

After all, the enemy is too powerful, even though she believes Itachi will never lose to anyone, but they are still too young.

Even the most talented ninja needs time to grow.

"Mom, you must take care of your health and don't make yourself so hard anymore."

"Father. Although the security forces are very busy with their work, they still have to take some time to rest occasionally."

"Quan can't stay with you any longer."

The more he thought about it, the more reluctance in Quan's heart became, and fear arose from it.

Although one has prepared himself to face death head-on, who wants to die?
Not many people can face death calmly without fear, especially a ten-year-old girl like Quan.

Although she is a ninja.

Orochimaru, who thought Izumi was just afraid of death at first, gradually changed his view by constantly observing the emotional changes in her eyes.

Because of these emotions, Orochimaru, who had been a Konoha ninja and experienced countless battles and life and death, also had them.

What is the value of life?

People in the world give different answers to this proposition according to their own values.

In reality, however, life is very fragile.

Especially for ninjas, volatile lives are of little value at all.

People die like lights go out.

Orochimaru wanted to know the answer to this question, and thus extended a new proposition.

What is the truth in this world?
As long as you get this answer, you can explain everything and truly know everything.

It takes a long time to explore this answer, but a human life is too short.

And this world is constantly changing. For this, Orochimaru needs to obtain eternal life first.

Compared with the endless time, everything is extremely small.

Whether it's the village or the companions, these are just insignificant things in comparison.

Orochimaru restrained his mind and moved his gaze up the stream.

In the mist, there was a thin figure curled up beside the stream.

"This trip to the Land of Water has been fruitful. I never expected that the Huiye clan would dare to attack Wuyin Village on its own initiative."

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.

"Uchiha Itachi, I'm really looking forward to whether you can find this place or not."

Swish!
Itachi's figure moved quickly through the foggy jungle.

"Hey!"

In the blood-red pupils, three hook jades slowly rotated.

He suddenly stopped and landed between two big trees.

Pushing aside a few leaves with his hands, Itachi picked up a handful of kunai with pink bows tied at the end.

"hiss"

At the same time, he noticed a thin snake hidden among the dense branches and leaves of a tree crown on the upper left.

The snake pupil stared at him closely.

"Isn't it far away?"

Itachi held Kunai's palm slowly and vigorously, jumped up suddenly, and galloped out.

"Quan, be patient a little longer, I will come to rescue you right away!"

(The last time I talked about the event of flying Raytheon Kunai, it started at 498918666 o'clock on Sunday night. Friends who have not joined the group should join it quickly, group number [-])
