Orochimaru didn't care about White Snake Sento's mood of stealing the chicken but losing the rice. The idea of ​​White Snake Sento guiding him to Ryūchi Cave was not pure at all.

Not to mention the despicable behavior of Immortal White Snake who looked cheerful before and immediately turned his back on him.Just talking about the intelligent creatures in Ryūchi Cave, except for the Ten Thousand Snakes who have now handed over their soul contracts, including the White Snake Senshi and the three goddesses, they have a deep malice towards Orochimaru that has never disappeared from the beginning to the end. , all proved how necessary Orochimaru's previous preparations were.

"Ha ha!"

"Next time we meet, it's time for me to come back and repay my kindness!"

Looking back at the Ryūchi Cave that was once again hidden in the mist, Orochimaru curled up into a sneer, turned around and walked away.

……

From the time he entered Ryūchi Cave to obtain the Sage Mode and Sora no Tachi to leaving, Orochimaru only stayed in Ryūchi Cave for less than a day.Excluding the time spent practicing the secret technique of body activation in Konoha and traveling on the road, there are still nearly 20 days left in the two-month vacation approved by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Orochimaru, who had nothing to do for the time being, thought of visiting his old place.

Ryūchi Cave is located at the junction of the Bear Country and the Ghost Country. One of these two countries has an extraterrestrial meteorite that allows people to practice the peacock magic method, and the other is said to have the original body of the ancient monster sprite sealed.

Orochimaru is naturally interested in these two things, but he doesn't have enough time at the moment, and besides, he has a more important thing to do.

Traveling slightly northward, we entered the territory of the Kingdom of Earth in half a day.

Orochimaru has always been thinking about this old opponent who almost forced himself and Tsunade into a desperate situation last time.

After continuing towards the Iwagakure Village for almost a day, Orochimaru finally arrived at the Iwagakure Village's sphere of influence.

After releasing a group of small psychic snakes, Orochimaru used his transformation technique to disguise himself as an ordinary resident of Earth Kingdom and wandered around to find out the news.

Although the living conditions of the residents near Iwagakure are not as good as those in Konoha, the mental state of everyone is roughly the same.

As one of the five great ninja villages, relying on the powerful strength of the third generation Tsuchikage Two Scales Onoki and the rock-solid will of stone inherited from Iwagakure Village, the faces of these ordinary people who have been living under the attack of rock rain all year round also have a look on their faces. There is a pride that belongs exclusively to the residents of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

After finding an izakaya, Orochimaru ordered a bottle of sake and two portions of slate-yaki, the most popular dish among ninjas from Earth Country, and sat in the corner to drink.

It wasn't that Orochimaru didn't remember the rule in the Ninja Code that prohibited drinking during the mission, he was just waiting.

Waiting for a ninja who likes to drink and just returns to Kagakure Village on a mission.

According to the information sent back by the psychic snake, this izakaya has the most reasonable prices and is well received by some idle ninjas in the middle and lower classes.Iwagakure chuunin or genin who often return from missions, as long as the mission has not yet reached the final delivery deadline, always come here to have a drink or two before returning to the village.

It doesn't matter whether he is strong or weak, Orochimaru just needs an identity that can smoothly enter the Iwagakure Village.

Without waiting too long, Orochimaru heard a conversation just after finishing his second glass of sake.

"Brother Yidan, I just don't understand why you go in and have two drinks every time you pass by this izakaya?"

"You know that ninjas are not allowed to drink during missions, so aren't you afraid of being punished by Lord Tsuchikage?"

"Hey! After all the nonsense, isn't the mission completed now?"

"Can you go in?"

"Iptan-kun, the stone slab barbecue here is one of the best. Take a few bites with some sake, and I guarantee you won't forget the wonderful taste!"

Orochimaru raised his head slightly, and like the other guests in the izakaya, he subconsciously glanced twice and then looked away.

There were two Iwagakure, one tall and one short. The taller one was about thirty years old, with a rough face that looked like a drunken demon. He impatiently walked to the front of the izakaya owner, and after greeting him familiarly, Like Orochimaru, I ordered a bottle of sake and two BBQ dishes.

The slightly shorter Iwagakure still looked like a young boy who had not yet grown up. He followed behind him with a helpless expression and sat down with him.

"Hah!"

"It's so comfortable!"

"Ipita-kun, don't you really think about having some?"

The middle-aged Iwagakure named Gidan drank up the sake in his glass in one gulp and exhaled the smell of alcohol with a happy face.He waved the sake towards Ichiga on the opposite side, his words full of bewilderment.

He tilted his head back and shook his head with an expression of indifference.

"Please, I'm not old enough to drink yet. Have you forgotten the three ninja taboos?"

Ichiro flipped the barbecue on the stone plate with his chopsticks and curled his lips at the other party.

"Haha, then wait another two years!"

"Now let me enjoy it alone!"

Yidan laughed heartily, poured himself a full cup, took a careful sip, and slowly enjoyed the grilled meat.

What followed was a meaningless conversation. It was absolutely impossible for a ninja who was out on a mission to talk about the content of the mission.

Orochimaru didn't expect to get any useful information from these two Iwagakure ninjas who looked like low-level ninjas, although the boy's name sounded familiar.

Maybe he can become an important figure in Yanyin Village in the future, but he is too young now and has no practical value at all.

Just like this, while listening to the two parents' petty chatter and slowly eating the food on the table, Orochimaru squinted and enjoyed the rare free time.

After the two of them had eaten and drank, Yidan stood up, smelled of alcohol, paid and left.The young man followed behind him, muttering that he would definitely be questioned by the guarding ninja when he returned to the village.

Orochimaru slowly finished the food on the table, drank the last bit of sake in the glass in one gulp, nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and walked towards the owner of the izakaya.

"Boss, check out!"

The owner of the izakaya was a stout middle-aged man. He nodded to Orochimaru with a smile, took out the bill and handed it over.

"Are the guests satisfied with the food?"

"Barbecued meat is 200 yen per serving, and sake is 100 yen. The guest spent a total of 500 yen. Here is the bill, please take a look at it!"

Orochimaru glanced at it, nodded with a smile, took out 500 yen and paid the bill.

“Very good! The price is also affordable, thank you for the hospitality!”

The smile on the izakaya owner's face became more and more kind, he took the payment with both hands, bowed to Orochimaru, and said thank you:

"Thank you for your review, welcome to come again next time!"

Orochimaru nodded noncommittally, said goodbye to his boss and left.

After leaving the izakaya, Orochimaru deliberately walked around the town, and then quietly pursued the location of the psychic snake.
