In Konoha, I collected corpses on the battlefield for ten years

Suddenly, a hoarse but magnetic voice came from behind.

Kiyokaze turned around stiffly, seeing the flowing long hair, the narrow, yellow eyes painted with purple eyeshadow, and the corners of his mouth curved into a certain arc.

"Lord Orochimaru..."

"Kiyokaze-kun, are you interested in working under me? Some very interesting things."

Orochimaru took a few steps, silently walking to his side.

"Uh..."

Kiyokaze didn't expect Orochimaru to say this, and subconsciously replied, "Not... not really."

"I have an experiment that needs an assistant who is good at handling corpses."

Orochimaru's voice sounded in his ear.

Kiyokaze looked uneasily at Orochimaru, who had a faint smile, and noticed the hidden danger in his eyes.

It was like being stared at by a highly venomous snake.

He quietly swallowed.

Is Orochimaru already starting human experiments?

Probably, but the subjects of the experiments are probably ninjas from other villages.

Currently, Yakushi Kabuto has not yet been brought back to Konoha, and Orochimaru still lacks a capable assistant.

But why did he take a fancy to me?

Kiyokaze couldn't understand why Orochimaru, who was hiding in the morgue and had never even met him, would invite him.

If he didn't know Orochimaru's future path, as one of the Sannin, who would likely become the Fourth Hokage in the future, Orochimaru would definitely be a giant thigh, an existence that countless people dreamed of following.

Unfortunately, he knew that with Orochimaru's personality, the Hokage was not his pursuit, he only wanted eternal life.

However, Kiyokaze also considered another aspect.

Currently, following Orochimaru is still a relatively safe thing, and Orochimaru, who is conducting human experiments, will definitely try to capture and collect a large number of corpses, among which there will definitely be some top experts.

This is a temptation for him.

Seeing him hesitate, Orochimaru didn't force it, and chuckled, "Consider it carefully."

After speaking, his figure slowly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Consider?

What a load of crap!

If it were someone else, like Tsunade, with her big assets, or even Jiraiya, Kiyokaze wouldn't hesitate to find a backer in Konoha, it couldn't be more comfortable.

Only Orochimaru wouldn't do.

It really wouldn't work.

He shook his head, giving up the temptation of getting close to Orochimaru, which might allow him to come into contact with Hashirama Senju's corpse.

Wood Release and the Sage Body are good, but you have to have the life to take them.

If Orochimaru knew that he possessed both the Corpse Bone Pulse and the Sharingan, maybe his first "Immortality Technique" container would be himself.

Thinking about it, it makes sense.

Orochimaru's two future pursuits, the two bloodline limits, he actually has both.

Some die of drought, while others drown.

I'm going to the front line.

This time the feeling is completely different from the last time.

Although both times involve bringing back corpses, this time it is very likely to become the trigger for the war, and the first to bear the brunt will be their support team.

Even with Orochimaru, Kiyokaze still felt unsafe.

But facing Hiruzen Sarutobi's order, there was no way to resist.

In that instant, he even hoped that the war had already broken out, it was better than feeling the stones to cross the river, not knowing which deep pit he would face.

Of course, it was just a thought.

He went back and slightly整理the ninja tools, and rushed to the village entrance.

This time they are all大佬, he didn't dare to be late.

Chapter 24: The Long-Lived Snake (Seeking Collection and Recommendation)

An hour later.

The main gate of the village.

When Kiyokaze arrived, he only saw Orochimaru alone, with his eyes closed and his arms crossed, leaning against the gate.

Seeing Orochimaru, he felt a little apprehensive.

Not afraid of what he would do, just a pure, heartfelt fear of snake-like creatures.

A normal person, even when facing a non-venomous snake, will feel a little fear when they see its smooth scales, winding shape, and flickering tongue.

This is human instinct, those snake catchers are not without fear, they just overcome it.

He looked back at the Hokage Rock in the distance.

I really don't want to leave.

Kiyokaze stood aside without taking the initiative to talk to Orochimaru, and Orochimaru ignored him as well.

The exchange between the two seemed to have never happened.

One after another, the other ninjas gradually arrived at the gate.

Kiyokaze silently sized up these companions.

Including himself, there were a total of fourteen ninjas, including three four-man teams, and Orochimaru and Kiyokaze, who were two separate teams.

The captains of the three teams were all Jonin, and the members were all Chunin.

In the entire team, Kiyokaze was the only Genin, which seemed very abrupt.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Orochimaru opened his eyes, glanced at them simply, and nodded silently.
