Opening: Minato became my brother

"Hey, hey, isn't this Konoha's Orochimaru? Woohoo~, are you interested in having a manly duel with me? Hehehe!"

Feeling the gaze staring at him from a distance, Orochimaru stopped, his narrow and sharp golden pupils narrowed slightly, and he looked towards the source of the gaze.

At the corner of the street, several ninjas dressed in the uniforms of the Hidden Cloud Village were strolling leisurely in the village.

Although the distance from the Hidden Cloud Village to the Land of Hot Springs is almost the same as the distance from the Hidden Leaf Village to the Land of Hot Springs, the journey is not easy.

The reason is simple, it's just that Ai's good brother Kirabi has been there "yo yo check noo", singing his unique rap non-stop, and occasionally saying some headache-inducing words.

Ai really couldn't stand this style of music, so they almost rushed here on a forced march, with the purpose of taking a good bath in the Land of Hot Springs and relaxing their tense mood.

At Ai's strong request, the people from the Hidden Cloud Village arrived at the capital of the Land of Hot Springs one day earlier than Orochimaru and his companions.

Also under the guidance of local official staff, they successfully checked into a hotel. According to the staff, this hotel is the best accommodation in the capital of Hot Spring Country.

The number of rooms is very limited, but the number of people who have booked to stay is too large to count.

According to the people from Hot Spring Country, the original reservations for these rooms were canceled and reserved specifically for them. This can be said to have given great face to the people in the Hidden Cloud Village.

Today, I was free and not the main negotiator. I couldn't resist Kirabi's request, so I had no choice but to take him out for a stroll, and they happened to come here.

As the real negotiator, Tutai stayed in the hotel to rest. After all, he was the key figure in this negotiation, so he had to stay in good spirits.

As early as yesterday, the latest news came from the village that Konoha will send Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, to participate in the negotiations.

And according to past practice, Nara Shikakyo of Konoha will definitely appear in the negotiation team. When he thought of the Nara clan's almost monstrous level of wisdom, Tsuchida felt the pressure doubled.

After all, ten billion taels of silver is not a small amount of money. If we can save some expenses, we can purchase the necessary equipment for more ninjas.

"From the Hidden Cloud Village..."

Important figures in the Hidden Cloud Village will naturally be recorded in the records of other villages, just like the two people in front of him with very different styles. Orochimaru took a quick look and knew that the person standing in front of him was the son of the Third Raikage - Ai, and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee.

Ai is a man of impatient temperament and hot temper, but actually he is a thoughtful person, perfectly inheriting the amazing talent of the Third Raikage. Unlike his father's strong offensive and defensive abilities, he focuses more on speed and possesses the advantage of lightning speed.

As for Killer Bee, he is the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village and is proficient in the two-sword technique. He has a lively and cheerful personality and is even a bit talkative, and his behavior is rather strange.

With a gleam in his eyes, Orochimaru turned around and gestured to Nara Shikagyou, then turned back and greeted Ai.

Among the Cloud Ninjas facing each other at this time, Ai has the highest status. As the son of the Third Raikage, he is also the first candidate for the Fourth Raikage.

"Haha, you guys came pretty early."

Orochimaru had a smile on his face, but the more Yue Le looked at it, it felt fake.

"After all, we are still young and strong. We can't just send some kids here. It won't take us several days to walk such a short distance. Someone who doesn't know would think we are here for a picnic."

As soon as they met, the situation became tense. Ai started by mocking Orochimaru for bringing some little brats here.

Is there no one left in Konoha?

"Hahaha, after all, we don't need to rush... I guess the Hidden Cloud Village shouldn't be in a hurry about this either..."

"Of course, of course, let's take it slow..."

"That's right. After all, I'm going to have to pay out 1 billion soon, so I'm sure I'll have to search my pockets carefully."

"you!"

At this point, before Ai could refute, Kirabi on the side couldn't help it.

I saw his whole body flashing with lightning, and at the same time, a chakra coat full of malice instantly wrapped around him. His figure seemed to grow taller in an instant, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit, as if he couldn't wait to rush up and fight with the people from Konoha for three hundred rounds.

In his opinion, the so-called peace talks were a waste of time. Instead of wasting time on them, it would be better to just fight directly.

Both sides should show off their respective tricks and compete with each other. Only in this way can the winner be truly determined. The winner takes all and the loser accepts defeat. Isn't that great?

Ai actually had the same idea in his mind. He also wanted to take this opportunity to test what tricks Konoha Village was playing.

After all, the attitude of Konoha Village has suddenly changed recently. It is no longer as weak as before, but has become tough instead.

What on earth do they rely on?

Ai was very curious about this. However, he knew that now was not the time to act and he needed to think carefully.

boom--

Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" and a huge fist hit Kirabi's head hard.

The punch was so powerful that it made Kirabi dizzy and see stars.

"Asshole! Behave yourself and stop making trouble here!"

Ai retracted his fist and turned to face Orochimaru. A faint smile quickly appeared on his face, as if he was provoking or apologizing.

“Ahhhh~~”

"I'm sorry, everyone in Konoha Village, I have a bad temper and sometimes I can be impulsive. Please bear with me."

"Orochimaru, I think we can have a fight."

Nara Lujing took a deep look at Ai, who was apologizing but showed no remorse, and thought secretly in his heart.

The son of the Raikage first let the impatient Killer Bee provoke him and others, and then he would take action after we were provoked. In this way, he could turn the passive situation into the active one and control the rhythm of the battle.

If no one in Konoha responds to this, Killer Bee will continue to be arrogant until tomorrow's negotiations, when he will suppress the momentum of himself and others.

Oh, it's not that easy.

Orochimaru shook his head gently, and when Nara Kyoto was about to think that one of the legendary three ninjas had no intention of making a move, Orochimaru suddenly turned around and his eyes fell on Yue Le, who was lowering his head and stuffing his mouth with the hot spring oden he had just bought from a roadside shop.

Seeing this scene, Orochimaru's mouth twitched slightly.

"Moon music."

Hearing the teacher's voice, Yue Le looked up blankly, wiped the food residue from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and then reflexively handed the remaining oden in his hand to Orochimaru, and asked in confusion: "Teacher, what's the matter?"

Orochimaru looked at him with a dark face, and finally said: "Go and spar with the other side."

"Okay, teacher."

Yue Le nodded in understanding, then walked forward. He didn't care why the teacher asked him to fight with the opponent, although he didn't pay attention to their conversation just now.

But, it's just a fight, what reason do we need...
