Konoha's strongest substitute user

Orochimaru miscalculated.

Bamen Dunjia had heard about it, but he didn't expect it to be so strong.

If it weren't for the miraculous effect of Ziyue's substitute, I might have lost half my life this time. I've already lost half my life. I just healed my hand, and I'm afraid I'll have to recover from the injury for another half a year.

Orochimaru returned to the secret base with Ziyue's support, and there were only a few elites with acceptable strength left around him. It can be said that he returned in vain.

This kind of loss is still within Orochimaru's acceptance range. Cannon fodder does not need to be cultivated. Losing a few jounin only hurts a little. The most disadvantageous part is probably that he is injured a bit seriously. It is only a matter of time.

The good news is that the plan to assassinate the third generation failed, but the plan to assassinate important officials from other countries was partially successful. The killing of the envoys of the two countries should bring a lot of trouble to Konoha.

Orochimaru is relatively knowledgeable about government affairs among ninjas, but he still doesn't think comprehensively. The Fire Nation's economic development plan has achieved remarkable results, and the newly created ninja economic model is also the target of imitation by other countries. In this case, let alone the death of the minister in a terrorist attack, even if the daimyo dies, it will only be a national sorrow for the country. Then just continue to cooperate. At most, the Fire Nation will give in a little bit when cooperating.

After all, it was not the Konoha ninja who killed the minister.

And there was another thing that Orochimaru could not have imagined. His injury would not heal even after a year and a half.

After half a year of recuperation, Orochimaru's injury recovered slightly slowly. He was also checked during the period, but the results of the check were nothing abnormal.

Now Ziyue is Orochimaru's most trusted deputy. While Orochimaru is recovering from his injuries, Ziyue is Orochimaru's agent. It is Ziyue who conveys orders and helps Orochimaru.

One day half a year after the train raid, Orochimaru called Ziyue to the room where he was recovering in the early morning.

For half a year, Orochimaru and Ziyue met almost every day, which was enough for Orochimaru to see a lot of things: "How long have you been following me?"

"I don't remember. How can I remember the days when I can't see the sun all day long next to Orochimaru-sama." Ziyue was vaguely aware of what Orochimaru wanted to say, but this time is different from the past. Orochimaru is still very weak now, and she It has already matured, and its rapid growth in the early stages is also the benefit of being a substitute.

The vertical snake eyes stared at Ziyue's eyes. The two looked at each other for a few seconds. Orochimaru suddenly sighed, "Oh, it's not what you think. I don't care about the lies you told, because they are also part of desire. I just want to ask you, on the train that day, you wanted to stay, right? Why did you leave with me in the end?"

Ziyue tilted her head and found a chair to sit down. Orochimaru himself had a wheelchair, so the chair in the room became a decoration. "Didn't Orochimaru-sama plan to throw me in Konoha? The reason why I stayed is with you." It’s the same reason I ran for my life together.”

"Hahahahaha"

Orochimaru suddenly let out a burst of laughter that was extremely inconsistent with his usual style. He covered his stomach with his hands while laughing, "I just need your ability to escape. Also, stop lying at this time. Are you here?" Be afraid”

There was silence.

Suddenly, Ziyue's face surged like water ripples, and a small ball of soil fell off her face. Behind it was Ziyue's melancholy and confused expression.

I don't know since when, Orochimaru couldn't find out whether Ziyue was wearing a mask.

"Am I more familiar to you here than your strange brother?" Orochimaru looked at Ziyue's expression with interest. There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he was telling cruel jokes. Orochimaru's smile was not the same. So cold, "You wouldn't give up escaping to Konoha for such a simple reason, right? This is not the Kujo Shizuki I know."

Ziyue never disappoints Orochimaru.

"No, it's really not the reason. I have noticed something is wrong with my brother a long time ago. I could probably tell it when I was in Hoshigakure Village. Isn't it the same for Orochimaru-sama? Look at me, and then look at Konoha's special Ninkujo Tosei, when I learned how to become a ninja next to Orochimaru-sama, I saw it more clearly. The biological brothers and sisters who grew up together grew up to more than ten years old and missed the best time to lay the foundation for ninjas. , received the same education, miracles are not enough to explain my brother's condition, let alone the changes in his personality." When Ziyue talked about these, she was similar to what Orochimaru thought, and her mood was not too low. "But these are not It affects me going to Konoha to find him."

You have accepted all the results, so do you have to get one result?

Orochimaru closed his eyes

It's just that I haven't accepted it thoroughly enough. After all, I'm just a child. It's not a shameful thing to choose to escape.

The confusion and melancholy that Ziyue is showing now is not because of the choice she made at that time. Orochimaru knows that Ziyue has also discovered something, which is why Orochimaru called Ziyue to his side so early today.

Ziyue is melancholy because something might happen to Orochimaru. What she is confused about is what she should do next if something happens to Orochimaru.

Orochimaru has been Ziyue's teacher for a long time, and he doesn't mind pointing her in a direction this time. "Okay, put away that expression, it's time for you to go to Konoha."

Ziyue did not answer the question, but waited for Orochimaru to continue speaking.

"You have to take me with you." Orochimaru continued, "Do you still remember how Saimaru came to life?"

Ziyue looked shocked.

She knew that Naomaru would make moves recently, but she didn't expect it to be like this. "You've also been tricked."

How Saimaru survived is basically known to Orochimaru's subordinates who have survived from Saemaru's period to the present. He had to use a substitute to replace the stomach of the guard guarding him so that he could survive the days of not eating or drinking and being seriously injured.

Ziyue has long known that Naomaru's substitute is definitely not as simple as what he eats. When a person is weak, the substitute's ability will be weakened accordingly. How could Naomaru, who was already on the verge of death, allow the substitute to invade? Go inside other people's bodies and eat their stomachs.

Orochimaru nodded, "Yes, and it's more serious than that. I only discovered it recently. Nashimaru's substitute can probably directly replace part of the person who was recruited and then use it for him. But I haven't figured out his substitute until now." How did it activate? There are obviously no traces of external chakra invasion in the body."

Now that the matter has come to an end, how to get infected is not the first priority. "Where did you get replaced? Did you go to Konoha to ask the Fifth Hokage to heal you?"

"No, Tsunade can't solve this situation. My whole body has been replaced." Orochimaru waved his hand. His body is still under Orochimaru's control, but it is estimated that as long as Naomaru needs it, Orochimaru's body will be replaced. Will rebel on the spot "Including chakra and ninjutsu, everything was taken away."

How could it be possible that the body could be taken away, chakra, and ninjutsu? Are these things something that can be taken away?

Ziyue could no longer understand what happened to Orochimaru.

"As for going to Konoha Purple Moon, my disciple, I'm not giving you advice. You must go to Konoha and use your identity as Kujo Tohoshi's sister to seek asylum, otherwise Sashimaru will definitely kill you. In that case, I It will also become dangerous.”

After finishing speaking, Orochimaru's neck suddenly stretched out and bit Ziyue's neck with a snap.
