The next day.

The Sarutobi clan held Konohamaru's funeral in their clan territory.

The Sarutobi clan sent someone to send an invitation to Naruto early. It was probably Sarutobi Hiruzen's idea. Naruto was not polite and went to fight the autumn wind with his two clones.

Konohamaru has been crushed by that big snake, it can be said to be terrible!There is not even a whole corpse, the children are really miserable.

The corpses were all broken into pieces. In order to facilitate the burial, Sarutobi Hiruzen got a box and put Konohamaru's flesh, blood and broken bones in the box, and then placed the box in the coffin for burial. It was a bit The meaning of matryoshka.

Maybe it was because he had cried enough the day before yesterday, so Sarutobi Hiruzen held the entire funeral, dressed in black, with a cold face throughout. But if you look carefully, there is a trace of sadness in his turbid and calm old eyes.

It is worth mentioning that Asuma has a good relationship with the Fire Temple. When he learned that the Sarutobi family had something to do, the head of the Fire Temple, Chiriku, personally went to Konoha and arranged it for Konohamaru. funeral.

After a boring passage of salvation scriptures, the memorial service was finally over.

After the memorial service is over, the banquet will naturally begin.

Interestingly, Naruto chose to sit at the children's table and met a few interesting people.

Shikamaru, Chouji, and Ino from the Ino, Deer, and Butterfly Tribes.

The Inar, Deer, and Butterflies clan have a good relationship with the Sarutobi clan. In addition, the three of them are subordinates of Asuma Sarutobi, so they will naturally be invited.

At the dinner table, Ino boldly pulled Namikaze Naruto and whispered.

Choji, on the other hand, was immersed in cooking, and Naruto, who was sharp-eyed, also noticed that this guy had a bag in his pocket...

"How are you preparing for the third level of the Chuunin Exam?" Shikamaru, on the other hand, became a little more courageous and started talking to the real Naruto.

"good."

Naruto dealt with it and ate in silence.

After eating the entire meal, the most uncomfortable thing was probably Uzumaki Menma.

It's not that he was very sad about Konohamaru's death. After all, this little bastard was killed by Menma Uzumaki himself. He was so sad.

He just wanted to maintain the sad big brother image he had established before, so Menma Uzumaki pretended to have no appetite and was very sad throughout the whole process.

In fact, when this guy saw Sarutobi Hiruzen's sima face, he felt happy already.

Seeing the table full of delicious food and wine, he was already greedy, but due to his image, he could only chew slowly and pretend to feel uncomfortable.

If it weren't for the reason of showing off, this guy would probably have been carrying a speaker on his shoulder for a long time, and just call it a microphone.

But fortunately, thanks to his acting skills, he pretended to be more like him. Even when Sarutobi Hiruzen and Sarutobi Asuma and his son came off to entertain the guests, Sarutobi Hiruzen even patted Uzumaki Menma on the shoulder.

"Don't be too sad. Where the leaves are flying, there is fire..."

In addition to comforting him, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not forget to teach Uzumaki Menma the will of fire.

Menma Uzumaki scolded him calmly: "Stop being so verbose."

Although the words sounded a little unkind, there was more sadness in them than the harsh tone of the past few days.Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said nothing, but his sense of Uzumaki Menma was much better.

After drinking and eating, Shikamaru and the others' parents also took them away. Before leaving, they even exchanged a few words with Naruto.

Just as Naruto and the other three were about to retreat, an ordinary-looking but luxuriously dressed young man suddenly sat next to them.

"Naruto-kun is so elegant." The young man suddenly spoke, with a hint of hoarseness in his refreshing voice.

This unique voice reminded Naruto of Orochimaru.

As expected, the young man said slowly while drinking tea: "If Sarutobi knew that Menma-kun had done something to his grandson, I wonder if you would still have the appetite to eat it."

Orochimaru's voice was deep and low-volume, but it made those who heard it feel a little chilly on their backs. This kind of chill, as if they were in close contact with a snake, was repulsive.

I have to say, this guy is brave enough.

How dare you come to have a meal.

Are you really not afraid that Sarutobi Hiruzen will recognize him and twist him into a twist?

"You are the one who is bold."

Naruto was not afraid at all. While enjoying the food, he said leisurely: "If I reveal that you are Orochimaru now, do you think he will believe me or you?"

Naruto asked leisurely.

"Of course I believe you, Naruto-kun." Orochimaru didn't panic, licked his lips and said, "In order to wipe Menma-kun's butt, I exposed half of my plan, and even almost ruined my plan. Total collapse.”

"I'm so kind to help you, but Naruto-kun is so heartless. It's really sad." Orochimaru's voice was strange, making Naruto and the two clones feel chills on their backs.

"Hey, Orochimaru, will your plan be carried out? I'm just waiting to see the excitement." Uzumaki Menma also became interested and asked.

"Of course it will."

Orochimaru answered without thinking.

For this mission, he even specifically persuaded the Fourth Generation Kazekage to let him participate in the operation.

At the same time, he also acted as a back-up plan, designing a plan to ambush the fourth generation Kazekage, waiting for a few days before the third exam, and then kill the Kazekage!

When the time comes, he can replace him, and then he can hide his identity, stay next to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and take the opportunity to blackmail him.

Moreover, the multi-village joint examination itself is rare, and it is even more rare to have the examination venue in Konoha. It is impossible for Orochimaru to give up this opportunity because of this small setback.

Moreover, the biggest purpose of the arrangement of those psychic arrays was to attract firepower from the village so that he could implement his plan.

As for attracting firepower, he still has other ways. Even if the psychic array is destroyed, it doesn't matter much.

Orochimaru's words made all three people sigh in relief at the same time.

"Orochimaru, just say what you want."

Naruto knew that this guy wanted to take advantage of him, so he simply said it. He wanted to see what Orochimaru wanted to do.

"Okay, Naruto-kun is really quick to speak. I need Naruto-kun to help me do something." Orochimaru stopped hiding it and said bluntly.

"Tell me."

All three are interested.

Orochimaru is very cunning and has many tricks. There are very few things he can't solve. Naruto wanted to see if there was anything he could do to help this guy.

"I wonder if Naruto-kun knows a man named Danzo..."

Naruto and the three looked at each other.

Orochimaru didn't say any more. Instead, he looked around and made sure that no one was paying attention. Then he smiled evilly and said in a low voice: "Get out of here first. We are discussing slowly..."
