Chapter 45 Master and Disciple

"Mr. Hiruzen, you are such a rare visitor."

At home, Orochimaru looked across the table at Sarutobi Hiruzen, the longest-serving Third Hokage, with a smile on his face.

Although he announced that he was about to step down, Sarutobi Hiruzen was still the Hokage at this time.

It's just that he didn't wear Hokage clothes this time, but ordinary casual clothes. It seemed that he was just visiting as a teacher.

This made Orochimaru slightly surprised.

He looked at Hiruzen-sensei's slightly serious face.

The originally black and thick hair was completely white, and the tips of the mustache were slightly lighter.

Under the erosion of time, wrinkles were etched on each other's cheeks.

There seem to be many curious stories hidden in the wrinkles.

Orochimaru believed that the stories he didn't know must be interesting.

Among those stories, there will be many glorious exploits that are told.

Naturally, there are also many unseen rocks hidden in the shadows...

"It's been two years since your last visit."

Orochimaru is still smiling: "I think this time, the teacher also has a reason to come?"

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at those snake eyes and suddenly sighed: "Orochimaru, I know..."

"Snacks for both of you, and tea."

A little girl in net clothing suddenly walked up to them with a plate and placed the tea on the plate in front of the two of them.

"Lord Hokage, um, Master..."

Mitarashi Anko smiled a little cautiously: "And Master, please use it slowly."

"Well, thank you very much..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a kind smile and smiled slightly at Little Anko.

Orochimaru on the side just nodded slightly and still looked at the teacher.

"Red bean she..."

Watching Anko's back disappear around the corner, Sarutobi Hiruzen said softly: "He will be a good apprentice. I hope you can teach him well."

"of course."

Orochimaru smiled and nodded, and several small snakes pressed their heads against the door to close it tightly.

"squeak"

The room fell into silence for a moment, and Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed again.

"I know that you have been looking forward to the position of Hokage and have made a lot of efforts for this position."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke again. He stared at Orochimaru and affirmed seriously.

"To be honest, your qualifications, abilities, means, or achievements are enough for you to sit in that position. I admit this."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded: "And my original plan was to let you take over my position after I abdicated, but..."

"only……"

The curve at the corner of Orochimaru's mouth disappeared, and his voice was a little hoarse: "It's just what?

Teacher, if you have anything else to say...just say it. "

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his head in silence. After an unknown amount of time, he said in a low voice: "I hope you can give up this Hokage campaign and leave the position to the young man Minato to become the fourth generation."

"..."

Orochimaru remained silent, looked up at the teacher, looked at it carefully, and asked softly: "What's the reason?"

"I know you are very upset."

"So, the reason is..."

"I will tell Minato that the next Hokage will definitely be you."

"Is it because I'm not as famous as him in the village?"

Orochimaru didn't know whether he was talking to himself or to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"No, as long as you become Hokage, no matter what your previous reputation is, you will reach its peak."

"That means my character is not more in line with your expectations than his?"

Orochimaru frowned and said, "It doesn't seem like this."

"You don't have to guess anymore."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out the pipe from under the table and puffed on it gently. In the smoke, Orochimaru was still murmuring.

"Is that because I did something wrong? But I haven't done anything wrong recently."

Orochimaru's eyes flickered: "Or is it that the teacher wants to find a Yondaime who is more controllable, so that he can be more convenient as the teacher's puppet?"

"Orochimaru!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen groaned: "That's enough!"

"Looks like I was right."

"It's not what you think."

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep puff of his cigarette and said in a low voice: "The Hokage of Konoha will not become anyone's puppet, including me.

It's impossible for me to have any idea of ​​​​manipulating Minato. "

"Well, it's not manipulation..."

Orochimaru paused and changed his words.

"Then, are you looking after the young people behind your back?"

"Whether you believe it or not, I asked you to give up Hokage, absolutely not for any personal preference, but for the sake of the village..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said quietly: "But recently, you have been too close to Danzo.

I know what he's up to. He wants to gain more power by supporting you to become Hokage. No one knows him better than me. "

"You should know that where there is light, there will be darkness, but darkness cannot completely lack light."

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued: "Danzo and I are like this, I am the leaf bathing in the sun, and he is the root hidden underground, both are indispensable.

In other words, if you want to maintain peace and stability in the village, you cannot allow all power to be concentrated in the hands of a certain force, as that will inevitably lead to extremes.

If Minato is in charge, he can still form a good check and balance with Danzo, but you can't. "

"What I said..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the expressionless Orochimaru with sharp eyes: "You may not be able to accept what I said, but I hope you understand..."

"Is this so? I know..."

Orochimaru nodded, and his tone returned to calmness: "Okay, teacher."

"I knew you wouldn't let me down."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, stood up, walked to Orochimaru, patted his shoulder, and continued walking towards the door, talking as he walked.

"Keep working hard. As long as the flame in your heart does not go out, one day..."

"Do I need to distance myself from Danzo?"

Orochimaru suddenly interrupted Hiruzen's words: "If it was your order..."

"This one……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused in front of the door and said in a complicated tone: "Is he still doing those experiments? Or did he invite you to join him?"

"The earliest first-generation cell experiments were conducted with your consent."

Orochimaru said softly.

"But I stopped it later."

"Once the chains of desire are opened, the pursuit of power will never stop."

Orochimaru's voice was low: "He has the resources, I have the technology, and the conditions for our cooperation..."

"Does that mean you become Hokage?"

"Power is also an important influence."

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gently opened the door and walked out of the house.

"Don't go too far. I'll keep an eye on you."

"..."

Orochimaru sat quietly in the room, looking at the empty seat in front of him without saying a word.

"Huh? Is Hokage-sama gone?"

Anko came from the next room and saw the meatballs on the table motionless, so she picked them up with a surprised look on her face.

"I didn't even touch the refreshments. Teacher, have you made Master angry?"

"..."

Orochimaru remained silent.

Until, the little snake with the letterbox tied to his body slipped onto his arm.

Pulling out the envelope from the mailbox and seeing the unexpected sender, Orochimaru raised his eyebrows and read it patiently.

The Fenghua clan was captured...

Orochimaru was stunned for a moment and tapped the table. After a while, another small snake slipped over, but Orochimaru grabbed it and bit off its head.

"So that's how it is..."

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, then threw the snake with its head aside.

In an instant, dozens of snakes emerged from under the floor, devouring the still twitching corpse and wiping away the blood with their bodies.

The corner of Orochimaru's mouth raised, and when he looked up, he saw Anko stuffed in his mouth, and raised his eyebrows.

"I said, you should eat less of this kind of food. You have the kind of body that tends to gain weight..."

"Hey! It's okay, teacher!"

Anko chewed the beans with a look of enjoyment: "It's just a little bit, no problem..."

"Go get the pen and paper."

Orochimaru glanced at her: "I want to write something."

"Eh?"

Hongdou looked at the remaining snacks on the plate and said with some reluctance: "Teacher, can you let those little long worms of yours go!"

"..."

Orochimaru didn't respond.

"Okay, okay, I see."

Hongdou sighed and turned away: "Apprentices are destined to be ordered around..."

"..."

That kind of high-calorie food will make her ninja career end prematurely...

Orochimaru thought to himself, stretched out his hand to pick up the plate of snacks, and threw the snacks off the table.

Several long snakes heard the sound and came, but when they saw the snacks, their bodies froze.

The long snake circled around the snacks several times, but did not take a bite for a long time.

"bass!"

A kunai suddenly pinned the head of one of the snakes to the floor.

"Fizz!"

The remaining long snakes immediately swarmed towards the dim sum.

Orochimaru picked it up with his finger, and the thread tied to the kunai made it return to Orochimaru's hand.

The body of the unlucky snake had disappeared before Hongdou came back...
