"Hokage, we received another letter from the Sand Village mentioning..." In the silence of the Hokage's office, the Jonin reported on the movements of the Sand Village.

The Third Hokage frowned, "What do these Sand Ninjas mean? They actually think that we, Konoha, kidnapped their Third Kazekage? Reply to the Sand Ninjas, if you are looking for someone, just look for him honestly. If they act recklessly in the Land of Fire again, don't blame us, Konoha, for not giving them face!"

The jonin quickly took orders and prepared to deliver the Hokage's reply to the Sand Ninja border.

………………

"You are so good, Konoha. During the Second World War, you had the three powerful ninjas and Konoha White Fang. We could only avoid war to preserve our strength. But now, Konoha White Fang was forced to death by your internal struggles, Tsunade has left, and Jiraiya has not been heard from for a long time. I'm afraid Orochimaru is the only one left in Konoha now? Humph, in that case, pass on my order to declare war on Konoha!" After reading the letter, Chiyo's eyes flashed with determination.

"Sister, isn't it too impulsive to declare war at this time?" Ebizo was worried.

"Konoha is now like a tiger with broken teeth, it's just bluffing. We are now missing the Third Kazekage, but Konoha is also missing the three top fighters: White Fang, Jiraiya, and Tsunade. If we don't dare to fight at this time, how will others view our Sand Village?" Chiyo said firmly.

.....................

"What? Chiyo actually dared to be the first to declare war on our Konoha? Go, call Orochimaru." The Third Hokage said in a deep voice to the Jonin who came to report.

Not long after, a handsome man stepped into the Hokage's office. He was Orochimaru. He looked at the Third Hokage and asked in confusion, "Teacher, do you have something to talk to me about?"

The Third Hokage took a deep breath and replied in a serious tone: "Now the Sand Village has declared war on us. You are also aware of the current situation in the village. I want you to lead the team to the Sand Village border to fight and demonstrate the power of Konoha."

Orochimaru nodded, then he hesitated and said, "Yes, teacher. However, I hope to have another person join the team."

"Oh? Who is it?" asked the Third Hokage.

"Yagyu Hakusho." Orochimaru slowly uttered the name, "I'm quite interested in him."

"Why are you interested in him?" The Third Hokage frowned slightly.

Orochimaru explained, "In the past few years, Yagyu Akatsuki has become famous in Konoha. At the age of twelve, he has completed several S-level missions that even Jonin would be afraid of. At the same time, he has created many ninjutsu, comparable to the second-generation Hokage of the year. You also know that I have been creating my own ninjutsu recently. Now I have encountered some difficulties in creating my own ninjutsu. I hope to get some inspiration from his experience in creating his own ninjutsu. More importantly, his father died at the hands of the Sand Ninja, and I think he must be eager to avenge his father."

The Third Hokage pondered for a moment and said, "Well, he doesn't have any urgent missions recently. However, I still need someone to ask his wishes."

After a while, Dawn appeared in the Hokage's office using the Flying Thunder God's special skill.

The Third Hokage looked at Dawn and said sternly, "Didn't I ask you to erase all the Flying Thunder God Marks carved in my office last time?"

Poxiao touched the back of his head and said, "I seem to have forgotten this mark at that time. I will erase it now. I will erase it now."

The Third Hokage waved his hand and said, "Forget it. You've said this dozens of times, and every time you forget one thing."

Then, the Third Hokage told Dawn in detail about the Sand Ninja's declaration of war, and mentioned that Orochimaru hoped that he could join the team.

After hearing this, Poxiao showed a puzzled look on his face: "Lord Orochimaru? It seems that I have never met him before."

The Third Hokage smiled and said, "Your reputation has spread like wildfire in Konoha over the years. The name Yagyu Dawn is now well-known to everyone in Konoha. What's more, what Orochimaru said is true. Your father did die at the hands of the Sand Ninja Anbu, and the heirloom sword of your Yagyu family was left in the Sand Ninja Village with your father in that accident. If you are willing to go, you can not only avenge your father, but also take back the sword."

A gleam of light flashed in Poxiao's eyes. With his current strength, the ordinary swords he bought were no longer suitable. When he was on a mission, he often had to carry several swords because they would be damaged if he was not careful. If he could get his father's sword, it shouldn't be so easily damaged, right?

What's more, Orochimaru is the descendant of the Second Hokage and a famous master of forbidden techniques in Konoha. If I could take this opportunity to learn some forbidden techniques from him, it would be icing on the cake.

So, Dawn agreed to the Third Hokage's suggestion without hesitation and prepared to go to the Sand Ninja border with Orochimaru.

………………

When they set out, Poxiao saw Orochimaru's true appearance for the first time. The Orochimaru in front of him was a handsome middle-aged man. He greeted Poxiao: "Poxiao-kun, I have heard of your name for a long time."

Dawn responded respectfully: "Lord Orochimaru, if you have any instructions, just tell me directly."

Orochimaru looked at Dawn with deep eyes, and asked, "Dawn-kun, do you desire eternal life?"

Dawn pondered for a moment and replied, "If eternal life is truly eternal, I believe no one in the world can refuse eternal life. However, there will always be people who lose their direction in the pursuit of eternal life and turn eternal life into a lingering existence."

Orochimaru listened to what Poxiao said and felt that Poxiao seemed to have a unique understanding of immortality. He asked again: "Isn't immortality just endless life?"

Poxiao shook his head slightly and said slowly: "If immortality is just the continuation of existence, without any quality or meaning, then what is the value of such immortality?"

After hearing this, Orochimaru seemed to understand something. He nodded and praised, "Mr. Poxiao is indeed insightful. If it weren't for your two sentences, I'm afraid I would have gone astray sooner or later."

Dawn said modestly: "Lord Orochimaru praised me too much. What I just said was just my personal opinion. Everyone has a different understanding of immortality, but I believe that as long as I can stick to my beliefs, even if I end up taking the wrong path, I will not regret it."

During the rest of the journey, the two also talked a lot about creating their own ninjutsu.

All of Dawn's impressive self-created ninjutsu were derived from the skills extracted from the Destiny System in his mind. How could he really create his own ninjutsu? On the other hand, Orochimaru is a true ninjutsu master. His self-created ninjutsu is highly praised by readers and he is known as the "unbeatable snake aunt".

However, the destiny in the mind of the dawn knows the plot of Naruto very well, especially those ninjutsu that the current Orochimaru has only studied halfway and successfully studied in the future, he can recite them by heart. Therefore, when Orochimaru talks about these ninjutsu, he only needs to give a little guidance to make Orochimaru understand.

As for Orochimaru, after spending the past few days together, he became deeply curious about Dawn. Sometimes Dawn could not answer the basic questions he asked, but Dawn could directly point out the future development direction of this ninjutsu for some difficult problems that had troubled him for a long time. Orochimaru just regarded this as the difference between genius and mediocrity, and no longer doubted Dawn's talent.
