I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I don't need approval

Chapter 246 246. Orochimaru’s gift

After leaving the arena for more than ten kilometers, Orochimaru stopped escaping.

After channeling the first and second generation Hokage, they returned to the coffin. Orochimaru stood on the treetops, looking at the chaotic Konoha in the distance with a thoughtful expression.

This time he came to Konoha to take the Chunin Exam. He didn't have many goals, and he had basically accomplished them all.

One is to come here to plant the curse seal for Sasuke, and to visit Anko, who has been planting the curse seal of heaven for many years. In addition, he is to plan the plan to destroy Konoha and bring the old man to a decent ending.

Even as a rebellious ninja of Konoha, he hopes that Konoha can become better and provide more excellent experimental materials.

Moreover, the current Hokage is Jiraiya's idiot. If he wants to stabilize his position as Hokage, he needs the assistance of his genius, such as killing all competitors who can threaten the Hokage's position.

After sighing, Orochimaru suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at a figure a few kilometers away. A playful smile appeared on his face, and he stayed where he was, waiting for the black spot to arrive.

Dozens of seconds later, Jiraiya, wearing the Hokage's robe, appeared in front of Orochimaru. He was holding the Fourth Kazekage in his hand. To be precise, it was the dirty earth body of the Fourth Kazekage.

The Fourth Kazekage is the second-lower shadow among the Five Shadows. He is not very strong and is no match for Jiraiya.

But facing the Fourth Kazekage, who couldn't be beaten and who had mastered magnetic escape and was able to fly, Jiraiya also had a headache.

After channeling Gamabunta, Gamahiro, and Gamaken one after another, they were unable to defeat the Fourth Kazekage. In the end, they relied on the two immortals Fukasaku Shima and entered the sage mode to defeat the Fourth Kazekage.

Defeating the fourth Kazekage was a good thing, but a living Kazekage was more useful than a dead one. Jiraiya still understood this truth.

"Orochimaru, you actually killed Kazekage Rasa in advance!"

Jiraiya put down the sealed Fourth Kazekage and stared at Orochimaru and asked.

Sensing the remaining senjutsu chakra in Jiraiya, Orochimaru was somewhat envious of Jiraiya's talent in senjutsu. He was clearly a top performer in the ninja school, but his strength has been able to catch up with him, and he even became the Hokage.

After hearing Jiraiya's question, Orochimaru chuckled and said:

"I have eliminated the Fourth Kazekage. Isn't it a good thing for Konoha? After losing the leadership of the Kazekage, Sunagakure will lose its ability to be an independent country and become the largest country in Konoha along with other small countries around it. A vassal state.”

"This is Danzo's plan, it's not my plan, but I owe you a favor this time."

Jiraiya shook his head slightly. His idea was to capture Kazekage alive and make Sunagakure become Konoha's most important ally, rather than beating Sunagakure into pieces and leaving Konoha to face the challenges from Iwagakure and Kumogakure alone. pressure.

However, Orochimaru's suggestion also made him a little moved.

If Sunagakure can really become a de facto vassal state, Konoha's long-term benefits will be huge.

Orochimaru and Sunagakure's joint attack on Konoha also consolidated his position as Hokage to a certain extent. After becoming Hokage, he never had a good record.

But why Orochimaru would help him? This is completely against Orochimaru's interests.

Orochimaru saw Jiraiya's thoughts and said with a smile: "Jiraiya, after becoming Hokage, you have changed a lot. You have become more and more like the old man in your youth."

Like the Sandaime teacher... Jiraiya frowned, this was not a good thing to say.

The third generation of teachers led Konoha to its heyday when he was young, but as he grew older, he became increasingly dim, causing Konoha to almost fall into the abyss.

"I look nothing like the old man, and if I were the old man, wouldn't you be Danzo?"

After pondering for a while, Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru and continued: "However, if you are willing to return to the village, I will accept you in the name of Hokage, provided that you no longer conduct those human experiments."

Facing Jiraiya's persistent invitation, Orochimaru shook his head slightly: "Unfortunately, I'm not used to Konoha's rules and regulations, and wandering in the ninja world is more suitable for me."

"But even though we can't return to Konoha, we can still cooperate in private. In addition, in order to congratulate you on becoming the Fifth Hokage, I have specially prepared some gifts for you?"

"A gift?" Jiraiya asked with doubt in his eyes.

"Some trivial things, but they will be very helpful for your future as Hokage..."

Jiraiya's eyes became dangerous: "What is the gift you are talking about? Why can't you give it in person? Have you attacked the ninjas in the village again?"

"You'll know when you go back and take a look."

Orochimaru deliberately put it off, and then said: "Or do you want to fight with me? The Fourth Kazekage is not the only ninja produced by my dirty soil. Konoha is still being invaded by Sunagakure. Are you sure you want to take action at this time? ?"

Jiraiya's expression changed, and he sensed the presence of several huge chakras nearby.

If it were just Orochimaru alone, he would be sure of victory, but if other filthy earth bodies were included, it would be hard to say. The rest of the village is still facing a crisis...

After pondering for a moment, Jiraiya said with a cold face: "Orochimaru, if you threaten Konoha, even if we were friends, I will never let you go."

With that said, Jiraiya used the teleportation technique and rushed towards the village.

With nostalgia in Orochimaru's eyes, he said in a faint tone: "It's really getting more and more similar, but I hope you will like the gift I gave you, and he will keep you awake at all times."

"After all, as the Hokage who rules a village, once he becomes arrogant, death is not far away."

After Jiraiya left, Kabuto Yakushi emerged from the bushes on the side.

After escaping from Kakashi and others, he rushed here to meet Lord Orochimaru. Unexpectedly, he encountered the scene where Orochimaru and Lord Jiraiya were communicating.

"Lord Orochimaru, I didn't expect you to cooperate with the Hokage. It seems that the third Hokage died unjustly."

Orochimaru glanced at his right-hand man, Yakushi Kabuto, and said casually: "That's not true. Jiraiya doesn't know yet that I'm attacking the old man, but he will know soon."

Kabuto Yakushi nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Lord Orochimaru, what is our next trip?"

Orochimaru glanced at the sky in the distance and said absently: "Of course it is to accept Danzo's legacy in Konoha, but someone has already taken over these legacy. For you, I have a special task for you to perform. "

"Lord Orochimaru, please give me your instructions."

"Go and get in touch with the Sunagakure Rebel Ninja Red Sand Scorpion, find a way to sneak into the Akatsuki organization, and collect intelligence on the Akatsuki organization for me."

Joining the Akatsuki organization... Kabuto Yakushi has heard a little bit about the Akatsuki organization. It is a mercenary organization active in the black market, but its true identity should be a rebel ninja organization that brings together many S-level rebel ninjas. Lord Orochimaru was once a member of it. .

When performing a mission of this level, the hope of coming back alive is very slim.

However, he will not refuse no matter how difficult the task is, because only with Lord Orochimaru can he find the meaning of existence and avoid losing the goal of life again.

…

the other side.

After a few minutes of rushing, Jiraiya arrived near Konoha City. After seeing the buildings in ruins around him, he felt an inexplicable feeling of palpitations, as if it was some kind of omen.

Continuing on his way with a dark face, Jiraiya found Tsunade among the ruins.

Tsunade didn't look good, and her face was a little pale as she directed the encirclement and suppression of the remaining Sunagakure troops. Not far away were Naruto and Shisui who were looking at the scenery with their legs crossed.

"Tsunade, I just met Orochimaru. Did the old man defeat Orochimaru?"

Tsunade glanced at Jiraiya, shook her head and said: "The teacher is dead. He died in the hands of Orochimaru. Orochimaru's uncle and the second grandfather joined forces to kill Mr. Sarutobi."

"Orochimaru killed the old man!"

Jiraiya felt like he was struck by lightning. He immediately understood what the gift Orochimaru was talking about. Orochimaru killed the third generation teacher and gave the teacher's body to himself as a gift to congratulate him on becoming Hokage.

Orochimaru is too crazy!

Recalling Orochimaru's smiling face, Jiraiya turned pale and regretted not taking action against Orochimaru just now.
