Konoha: Archers of the Hyuga family

The five of us went to the BBQ Q together. After all, we were guests from afar, so we couldn't look too shabby. Moreover, Hinata Kumikawa really didn't know where he was going. Yuanping Yuki was chatting with his aunt and didn't have any ideas.

no way……

Hinata Kumikawa has eaten at this restaurant and had a good impression. It has meat and seafood and is not shabby.

Since there are five people, a table for six is ​​required.

Because I arrived quite late, the first people to have dinner had already finished their meals and left, leaving a table free to avoid queuing.

As for a la carte...

Hinata Kumokawa will not click on it. He hates blind guessing multiple-choice questions.

So he handed the hot menu to Yuan Pingyuki.

She is a regular visitor and is relatively familiar.

Moreover, she and her aunt can talk together now, unlike Hinata Kumikawa and the father and son over there, one of whom pouted and said nothing, and the other was extremely polite, making communication uncomfortable.

At least, the process is enjoyable.

It didn't exceed the budget. A meal cost more than 1000 yen. If he had to pay the bill later as a landlord, Hinata Kumikawa wouldn't be too upset.

If there wasn't an uninvited guest in the middle, the meal would be quite harmonious, and I could recommend the master's ninja shop to Izunoya...

……

"There is no room left, can I sit here?"

Not long after the dishes were served, Hinata Kumokawa had just picked up the chopsticks when a gentle male voice came into his ears. He looked up and met a pair of beautiful eyes. At first glance, he thought the owner of the eyes was a beautiful woman.

Although this face is indeed quite beautiful, Hinata Kumokawa is extremely sure that this is a man.

Because he has an Adam's apple...

Without waiting for Hinata Kumokawa's consent, he sat beside him and greeted the Izuno family cordially.

"You are Mr. Izuno. Welcome to Konoha. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Orochimaru. From now on, you can regard the village as your home. We are all your new family..."

Orochimaru! ! ?

Hinata Kumokawa frowned and stuffed the rejection back into his stomach.

Let's see what this guy is going to do first...

First there was a thief who hid poison in his mouth, and then there was Orochimaru, a Sannin. This family was unusual. Although they had never heard of it, they definitely had hot items that every ninja village wanted.

It is destined to be a pool of muddy water, and a python has crawled in. As a rookie, I should just watch the show next to it, to downplay the sense of presence, and hide far away to prevent the python from coming ashore and eating the chicken...

……

"Ahaha... You are really out of touch. The Sannins are all just in name. To put it bluntly, their defeated generals were spared their lives. I heard that the Izuno family's secret skills are also quite powerful. I wonder if I have a chance to see them. ?”

"Of course, anytime."

"Then let me thank you in advance... Come on, eat more meat. This is the time when the child is growing..."

Hinata Kumokawa looked at Orochimaru and stood up, holding a large piece of barbecue for the Izu wild beast opposite him, and lifted up his hanging cuffs very gracefully, his movements were completely like that of a nobleman.

To be honest, the temperament of Orochimaru in the anime is completely different from that of Orochimaru who spits out snakes and spits out swords at every turn. The current Orochimaru actually gives Hinata Kumikawa the feeling of a female elder.

"Yumokawa-kun, you should eat more, the eel here is always very good~"

With that said, Orochimaru took another piece of eel to Hinata Kumikawa.

Hinata Kumokawa and him looked at each other.

The corners of Orochimaru's mouth suddenly turned up slightly, and after a pause he picked the eel back up and put it into his bowl.

"Oh... I forgot, Yunchuan-kun doesn't like fish, what a pity."

"????"

Hinata Kumikawa suddenly had a lot of questions in his mind.

What does Orochimaru mean?

Why did I suddenly feel that the arrow had turned and was now pointing at me?

He also specifically emphasized that he doesn’t like to eat fish…

What do you want to express?

Are you keeping an eye on yourself and knowing all the information?

But what's the point?

I don't have the Sharingan, and Itachi hasn't been born yet, so Uncle Snake has a strange eye addiction so early?

No, no, no...

……

"Mutton rolls, Yunchuan-kun won't refuse, right?"

"Of course not, Orochimaru-sama."

Hinata Kumokawa picked up the bowl and caught the meat that Orochimaru brought over.

Although his expression remained unchanged, goosebumps were already falling all over the place.

By the way, this thing is really Orochimaru, why is he so bitchy?

……

"Well, goodbye, and I wish you a happy life."

"Goodbye, Orochimaru-sama."

At the entrance of the barbecue restaurant, Orochimaru waved goodbye to the Izuno family.

"Then...we are going home too, Orochimaru-sama."

Hinata Kumokawa bowed slightly to Orochimaru, grabbed Yuan Taira, who was a bit of a nymphomaniac, and prepared to run away.

"Wait, little girl, you go home first, Yunchuan-kun and I will be alone."

"Then...goodbye, Orochimaru-sama."

"Be careful on the road."

"Mmmmmmm..."

……

Hinata Kunchuan: "..."

This was the worst meal he had ever eaten, and he felt like a python was staring at him from beginning to end.

And now, the meal is over.

Everyone is liberated, only I am still entangled by the python's tail...

Hinata Kumokawa felt a little suffocated.

"Lord Orochimaru, this is our first meeting."

"That's not bad."

Orochimaru's face changed instantly, the original gentleness disappeared in an instant, his eyes turned into vertical pupils, and the sharp top-down gaze made Hinata Kumikawa Alexander.

"Walk with me."

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

"Do you know the secret technique of the Izuno family?"

"do not know."

"I once saw someone use it. It is a technique that allows the chakra of a certain creature to attach to one's body through channeling. It is like an alternative sage mode."

"...Why are you telling me this, sir?"

"I think you are a very special ninja."

Orochimaru did not lower his head to look at Hinata Kumikawa, but still walked straight forward, his tone slightly nostalgic, as if he was recalling his past self.

Hinata Kumokawa followed behind, not knowing how to answer the question.

Fortunately, Orochimaru continued without giving him a chance to answer.

"You can be considered a genius, and Kakashi is also a genius, but you are different from Kakashi. Like most ninjas, he believes in his own power, but you are different. I have been observing you for a while... "

"The thirst for power is just like me at that time, trying to make myself stronger and desperately trying to learn everything, but you and I are different. At that time, I really believed that I could turn the tide. Although the result not good……"

"But you are different. You don't seem to believe in yourself at all. You are obviously the best among your peers, but you seem to be chased by some ferocious beast... You are very scared. Can I know what you are afraid of?"

Orochimaru paused slightly and looked at Hinata Kumikawa.

Someone lowered his head, pretending to hesitate.

In fact, I have already begun to complain...

You ask me what I'm afraid of?

Of course I'm afraid of you at this moment, bastard!
